《Queen Of Medicine》


 Chapter 1

    Zhuo Xi woke up in a sharp pain.


    She seemed to have been running in the dark. She vaguely heard grandma''s old and weak voice coming from a distant place, Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi. She tried to find the source of the sound, but it was dark all around. She couldn''t touch her fingers. She didn''t know which direction to go. That voice loomed again, as if it would disappear at any time. She had to run all the time, hoping to run and fall into the warm embrace. But she couldn''t run too fast. She was afraid that if she really fell into it, she would knock down her old grandmother.


    In her confused consciousness, she finally felt her body stop, followed by severe pain. It seemed that her whole body was broken. From her hair to her heels, there was no place without pain, so that she almost wanted to fall into the dark again. She forced herself to open her eyes. The light penetrated through her eyelids. With one eye, she woke up immediately. A little white snake was biting at her feet. She conditionally wanted to stretch out her hand to grasp it, but found herself paralyzed on the ground and unable to move. She could only watch the little white snake attack herself.


    I thought it was so painful anyway. It wouldn''t hurt any more. But the imaginary pain did not come. She looked carefully and found that the little white snake was not biting her, but licking her. Actually, licking the wound on her foot. She was leaning against the wall at this time. She could only see the little white snake licking the blood on her wound from a distance, but she could not see that her wound was healing at a slight speed.


    She moved her fingers and found a bright red fruit on her hand. Who gave it to her? Is there anyone else around here? She tried to make a sound from her throat.


    As soon as the voice came out, she didn''t see the expected figure, but was surprised to find that the little white snake raised her head and looked at her. She blinked and the little white snake swam over. Squeezing her five fingers with her little head seemed to make her hold the fruit tightly.


    She cleared her throat and found that she seemed to be able to speak. She whispered, "is this for me?"


    The little white snake nodded.


    "Do you understand me?"


    It nodded again.


    "You gave it to me?"


    It nodded again.


    "What happens after eating?"


    It could not nod this time. It swept her hands and arms with its tail, and arched the red fruit with its head.


    "For the sake of being the only creature with me, cough." She wanted to make fun of herself by making jokes, and her throat was so sore that she couldn''t speak. Anyway, it''s all like this. It''s estimated that it won''t be any worse. It''s a big deal to die. She thought, raising her hand with difficulty and stuffed the red fruit into her mouth.


    The little white snake seemed to nod in comfort, swam back to her feet and continued to lick the wound there. She was surprised to find that the burning feeling disappeared like a wound on her foot. Then the burning sensation from the stomach slowly diluted the pain of all parts of the body.


    Lying on the ground, she gradually remembered some fragments before the plane crash.


    "Feng''er, at the end of this mission, I will create the illusion of a crash. When your and my names disappear from the list of organizations, we can always be together."


    "Believe me, I''m ready for a new identity."


    "You go up first and I''ll be right over."


    "Remember, the parachute is under the seat. As soon as the plane takes off, you put it on."


    "It''s taking off right away. I''ll get two bottles of water in the back."


    Those whispers seemed to be still in my ears. Full of satire.


    She smiled at herself. What else doesn''t she understand now? What illusion, what new life, are used to confuse her lies. It''s a pity that she, the number one killer in the organization, foolishly believed such a bad game. All this stems from her trusting him too much. In the end, the man named wolf personally sent her to death. God didn''t give her a chance to put on a parachute at all, because as soon as the helicopter left the ground, it exploded. She could imagine how the wolf would smile proudly. Without her, the wolf is the number one killer on the list, and the reward has at least doubled five times. But then what? No amount of money can give her a fair life. All the money she made was left to her only relative grandma. I hope she can still be well there.


    No matter where it is, it is always a new beginning for her, a beginning to live in the sun. She took a deep breath and was surprised to find that the pain all over her body was greatly reduced, almost negligible. She stood up and walked slowly, looking at the surroundings.


    She must find an exit and leave. She will soon be unable to live without water and food.


    Her position is a long roadway. The walls on both sides are made of boulders. A night pearl is embedded in the wall every few meters, providing a weak light source for this space. She listened carefully. There seemed to be no other sound. Quiet, very quiet. People in too quiet space are often prone to hallucinations.


    She quickly patted the little white snake on the head and asked, "Xiaobai, do you know which direction to go?"


    The little white snake turned proudly and nodded ahead with his head.


    She breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Xiaobai was there. She knew that if she didn''t make a sound in time, she would gradually hear the sound of her heartbeat and the sound of blood flowing through her eardrum


    She swam forward slowly with Xiaobai. No, she walked forward slowly, looking for the tools that can be used to defend herself.


    When she passed a corner, she seemed to step on something, as if it was a little hard and the surface was a little elastic. She stopped reflexively and stepped back. Looking at the ground, she couldn''t help taking a breath. It was a person''s hand coming across from the other side.


    "I''m dying, Xiaobai. Won''t you remind me when someone is here?"


    Xiaobai saw her stop, turned her head and looked at her innocently, as if to say that it was just a dead man. What''s to be afraid of? For it, dead people are no different from walls.


    "All right. Look at you... "She suddenly kept silent, because the tip of her nose smelled the thick smell of blood from the depths of the roadway.


    She asked softly, "do you smell it?"


    Xiaobai twisted excitedly and swam forward.


    "What are you excited about? You''re not a wolf."


    She whispered and carefully bypassed the body on the ground. She saw that it was a young woman with almost the whole neck cut off and her head collapsed against a little skin and meat. She glanced at her arm, but stopped and turned back. She saw several tattoos engraved on her wrist. She looked at her wrist. There were three patterns. The first pattern was three vertical and one horizontal, the second pattern was two vertical, and the third pattern was one vertical and one horizontal. The woman on the ground has two patterns, four vertical, one horizontal and two vertical. She looked for a long time and probably had a number in her mind.


    The more you go forward, the more bodies you see. The dead are different, but they are all sharp weapons. Xiaobai took her all the way forward. She passed several ear chambers on the way, and she didn''t care. She turned another corner. When she passed an ear room, she stopped Xiaobai and slowly returned to the door of the ear room. She seemed to hear a faint breath.


    She began to think she had heard wrong. She glanced. There was only a sarcophagus in the ear room. She stopped in the middle. She identified it carefully and found that her breath seemed to come from the sarcophagus.


    Even though she was a killer in her previous life and killed many dignitaries, she never went to the grave. She was not afraid of the dead, but she saw the breathing dead for the first time. She felt a slight sweat in her palm and slowly approached the sarcophagus.


    She held her breath, but heard that the breath at the other end of the sarcophagus seemed to be heavier.


    She knows Curiosity Kills cats, but as a killer, she can never leave her back to the enemy. She has to eliminate all dangerous factors.


    Just then, Xiaobai slipped through her feet and rushed behind the sarcophagus.


    She was about to drink Xiaobai, but she heard a scream from behind the sarcophagus.


    She breathed a sigh of relief and asked softly, "who? who are you? Come out. "


    Xiaobai stared and stood up.


    "No, don''t kill me." A child''s voice came from behind the sarcophagus.


    Zhuo Xi went to Xiaobai and saw a little girl curled up behind the sarcophagus with blood on her arm.


    She said softly, "I won''t kill you. Come out."


    The little girl shrank even more. "They, they''re all killing. I, I don''t want to die. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "they have gone. Come out and I''ll take you out."


    "Then tell your snake to go away."


    "Xiaobai, let''s go out."


    The little girl came out, covered with blood.


    "Are you okay?"


    The little girl touched her scratched arm and said, "it hurts here."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the wound, had stopped the blood, and said, "don''t touch it. After you go out, your sister will give you medicine."


    The little girl looked up. "Can we go out?"


    "It must be possible. We have Xiaobai." Zhuo Xi said easily.


    Out of the ear room, the little girl hid behind Zhuo Xi, "sister, you go first, I''m afraid."


    Zhuo Xi patted her head comfortingly and followed Xiaobai to go on.


    But suddenly she heard the sound of a sharp blade piercing the air behind her ears. She hid reflexively and grabbed the young hand with her backhand, holding a rough dagger. The little girl looked at her in panic.


    "Why did you kill me?" Zhuo Xi was angry.


    "You, you didn''t take me out to kill me?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled angrily, "why should I kill you?"


    "They are all dead. Living people are not allowed here. You''re not going to kill me. Why do you take me out?"


    "Then why did they kill you?"


    "I, I''m a funerary object, you see." The little girl stretched out her injured hand, and the wrist was also engraved with horizontal and vertical patterns.


    "It was a funeral." Zhuo Xi smiled, "you see, I have it too." She also held out her other hand.


    "Sister, why didn''t they kill you?" The little girl let out a cry.


    "I was poisoned and unconscious before. They probably didn''t find me." Zhuo Xi took down the dagger in her hand and found that it was ground by an animal tooth. She took the little girl''s hand and said, "don''t worry, we''ll all go out alive."


    "Sister, I''m sorry."


    Zhuo Xi shook her hand.


    As they moved forward, there were more and more bodies. The last one turned around and came to a huge indoor space. The tall stone pillars and steps look like a palace.


    "This is it. Just now, they killed like crazy." The little girl said tremblingly.


    The whole room, whether on the middle platform or on the steps on both sides, was strewn with corpses, bleeding all over the ground, and some scattered along the patterns on the ground, just like coloring the carving of the whole hall. The blood was not dry and the color was fresh. It seemed that the massacre had just passed. These people were killed with knives. Along the way, she seemed to see how these poor people ran and resisted. Blood splashed on the spot. It was full of people. Rao Shi had killed many people. She couldn''t help but be thrilled to see this.


    These people were all dressed in coarse linen, and tattoos with horizontal and vertical symbols were also painted on their wrists. Judging from the Stonehenge architectural style and the clothes on the body, it may be in the era of slavery. The candlesticks on the wall are also made of bronze, and the iron has not been found yet.


    They walked down the steps paved by the body and out of the left path. Generally, the owner of such a luxurious tomb is either rich or expensive. Among the slaves killed and buried, there must be craftsmen who built the tomb. They will leave a way for their escape. The little white snake brought them to a huge stone gate.


    There was a corpse lying on the ground in front of the door, holding on to his chest. At the door stood four statues of soldiers in armor. The little girl ran over and shouted, "Dad, Dad, wake up."


    "Is he your father?"


    "Yes, he used to be the craftsman who built here. Unexpectedly, they didn''t even let go of the craftsman." The little girl said bitterly.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t speak. If it were her, she might not let go of the craftsmen who knew the tomb like the back of their hands. Their knowledge of the tomb passage alone is enough to keep them silent forever. Zhuo Xi explored him and couldn''t find a map or something.


    But the little girl took a string from her father''s fingers and pulled a string from her neck. Zhuo Xi saw that it was a jade plate with similar rectangular patterns engraved on the two halves. No, it was not a jade plate, but like the hard bone of an animal. It was ground snow-white and looked like ivory. Zhuo Xi put them together and couldn''t close them. On the contrary, the gap in the middle was tightly closed. As soon as she loosened her hand, she loosened it again. Together, two square parts overlap.


    The little white snake swam over. Zhuo Xi joked, "Yo, little white, you see something good? You are also open to money? "


    Xiaobai stared at the jade pendant and rolled a circle on the ground. Zhuo Xi looked, yo, it''s the pattern on the jade pendant. What kind of clan emblem is this? She observed the pattern carefully. In fact, the pattern is also very simple, that is, two rounded squares are partially overlapped, and the overlapped part forms a new rectangle. The edges of these switches are high and low and uneven.


    "When I came in, my father gave me this, smeared blood on me and asked me to hide under other people''s bodies, so I escaped. I didn''t expect him... "


    "What is this pattern?" Zhuo Xi interrupted her whisper.


    "This is a mark that can only be used by the royal family of the previous dynasty. This is the tomb of the first king. The first king died seven days ago. Today he moved his coffin in for burial. This is his coffin. "


    "Only the former royal family can use it? That''s why your father divided it in half? "


    "Maybe, but I don''t know what''s the use of this."


    She looked at the stone gate in front of her.


    Zhuo Xi reached out and pushed the stone gate, motionless.


    The four stone carvings in front of the door held the hilt of the sword and glared angrily, as if laughing at her overestimation.


    The little girl dried her tears and stood up. Her head touched the arm of one of the guards. The arm made a slight click.


    Zhuo Xi listened and carefully held his arm and found that it could rotate. She turned around, but the door remained motionless. This arm was originally in a right angle shape, and now it is turned and held upward by Zhuo Xi. It looks a little funny. Zhuo Xi turned around in front of the four statues, stood away and looked at the dominoes in the little girl''s hand. The little white snake went round and round, and it had no clue at all.


    Zhuo Xi came forward and touched another stone carving''s inner arm and found that it could also rotate. She was overjoyed and turned her arm in a certain direction. The other two stone carvings have arms on the inside. She put her four arms together in a certain direction and found that their palms just formed a small rectangle, through which they were facing a brick on the wall.


    Zhuo Xi reached out and pressed the brick. Sure enough, the stone gate opened.


    The door opened and the little girl was about to break in. She grabbed her. She looked at the body lying on the ground, said sorry and took off her straw sandals. Zhuo Xi weighed it. It was too light. He inserted the bone dagger on the straw sandals and threw it in. There was no movement. So she put her toes on the floor tile where the straw sandals landed, repeated this several times, and motioned the little girl to follow her footsteps. They stepped into the tomb.


    There was a huge sarcophagus in the middle of the tomb. A huge night pearl hung on the sarcophagus. It looked very expensive. She speculated that it should be the so-called coffin of the former king. On the east wall is a row of weapon racks on which all kinds of weapons are mounted. Zhuo Xi explored two bricks with straw sandals, jumped over and picked a beautiful short sword embedded with gemstones, thinking that if she needed money to go out, she could exchange it for money. Besides, she had a spear in her hand.


    Go back. The little girl followed her footsteps and took a long knife on the edge of the shelf. Just about to jump back, the little girl''s knife handle accidentally hit the brick next to her, and a huge iron cage fell on the top. Zhuo Xi immediately took the girl and jumped over. The spear in her hand hit the wall again, triggering another mechanism. She immediately counted the arrows at once. She waved the spear to protect the little girl and retreated from the door.

 Chapter 2

    She was obviously frightened again when she saw the little girl holding the dominoes in her hand. She thought about the figure on the dominoes and suddenly had a flash of inspiration. If you take the sarcophagus in the middle as the center and the whole ground as a whole plane, the two bricks just stepped on are the raised parts of the figure on the dominoes. It is possible that the bricks corresponding to these raised parts are safe.


    He walked into the tomb again and explored the way with a spear. Sure enough, the route was arranged according to a figure, forming a simple closed loop. On the other side of the wall, there is a long multi-storey shelf, which is full of all kinds of banquet tableware, which is about to allow the owner of the tomb to have fun all the time.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t dare touch any of them for fear of touching any mechanism. She observed the rows of patterns on the side of the shelf. In the corner at the end of the shelf is a box with the lid open and full of cups. There are bronze, glass and jade. The little girl''s eyes lit up and praised her. It seems that these cups are very valuable.


    She sighed that the slave was wearing coarse linen clothes and had only a pair of straw sandals on his feet, but the owner of the tomb even had such luxurious wine utensils for burial. It can be seen how rich and corrupt his life was. Several boxes against the wall behind the coffin were full of gold, silver and jewelry. The little girl leaned over with a cheer, picked up some beads, looked at Zhuo Xi timidly and asked, "sister, can I take it away?"


    Zhuo Xi shrugged her shoulders and made no comment.


    In the middle is a box of books. It was made of bamboo slips. She looked at it about. It was the seal script of the Qin and Han Dynasties. She could roughly recognize a few words. Most of them are art of war and political theory. Sure enough, the king won''t forget to fight when he dies. Suddenly her eyes brightened and a corner of sheepskin appeared under the bamboo slips. This kind of sheepskin is mostly used for drawing. She immediately pulled it out and opened it. It was indeed a map, but it was not a map of the seven continents and eight oceans she was familiar with, but a whole continental map with the thirty seventh year of Zhongyong in the "Kingdom of Yudian" written on it. She looked and put the map in her pocket. He looked at the box again and was about to close it.


    Xiaobai rushed over. He nodded the box with his head and the ground, and then looked at her with black eyes.


    She held her forehead and sighed, "Xiaobai, if only you could speak."


    "But can you tell me how you got in?"


    Xiaobai nodded the box and the ground.


    She said, "did you come in hidden in the box?"


    Xiaobai nodded and shook his head.


    She has a black line. What does that mean?


    Xiaobai didn''t understand. She swam to the side of the main coffin. There seemed to be a gap at the bottom of the sarcophagus. Xiaobai retracted the whole, stretched out his head and climbed out slowly.


    She looked cold. "You said you came out of here?"


    Xiaobai nods excitedly.


    "Sister, is it right here?"


    "It''s possible." Zhuo Xi answered.


    As soon as the little girl heard this, her face raised an excited look, and she was about to rush to the front of the sarcophagus. Zhuo Xi grabbed her. She calculated the route, and the sarcophagus happened to be located in the rectangular part where the two squares coincided. In other words, either the raised parts of the corresponding pattern of the bricks around the sarcophagus are safe, or only the location of the sarcophagus itself is safe.


    But if there is no foothold around the sarcophagus, how did the person who came in to place the sarcophagus approach the sarcophagus and open it? From this point, it can be inferred that the raised bricks around the sarcophagus should be safe.


    Zhuo Xi picked up the spear and tried tentatively. As expected, it was safe. The little girl happily jumped on the floor tile, squatted down and studied the sarcophagus.


    Zhuo Xi lowered her head and looked at the box of books. Xiaobai swam back to her feet and drew a circle. She tried to carry the box as if it were fixed on the ground. She thought for a moment, took out all the books in the box and put them carefully on the safe floor tiles. As like as two peas around the bottom of the box, a row of identical totem patterns were engraved. She touched it one by one with her hands through the dim light. Sure enough, she touched a concave convex totem. As soon as she was happy, she was turning back and asked the little girl to pass her the dominoes. But in an instant, he was almost scared and shouted "no!"


    The little girl is prying a crack in the sarcophagus with the bronze weapon Zhuo Xi took from the weapon rack. She is happily turning back to tell her sister the good news. As soon as Zhuo Xi''s "no" came out, he clearly heard the sound of something crawling fast.


    The little girl covered her ears and shouted at the same time. But soon she was speechless, and blood flowed out of her eyes, nostrils, mouth and ears. She whispered to Zhuo Xi, "sister, thank you. Dad said, "that jade dominoes is a keepsake for me to recognize my relatives in the future. Please take good care of it. If you meet someone who knows this card in the future, please live instead of me. Don''t, don''t make your relatives sad." She slowly sank to the ground, her eyes wide open.


    Zhuo Xi''s outstretched hand stopped in the air. He saw a black insect climbing out of the girl''s nose and was about to rush to Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi was quick in eyes and hands, threw the spear and nailed it to the ground.


    She looked at the tightly jointed Sarcophagus, carefully stepped over, took off the two dominoes hanging around the little girl''s neck and returned to the bookcase. She closed the dominoes and poked them in, as if they were stuck in, but it seemed that something was missing. No response.


    She took out the dominoes and observed them carefully. The middle of the dominoes is closed tightly, but the edge is a little strange. It is reasonable that the brand worn on the body may hurt the skin if it is cut so sharply. She looked around and saw the dagger made of animal teeth inserted into the straw sandals when she came in front. She snapped her fingers and took off the dagger. There is a square ring hanging at the end of the dagger, which is a bit like the key ring used in modern times. The circle is tied with straw rope, like an insignificant ornament. She took off the circle, closed the dominoes and put them into the circle. As expected, they were one.


    She carefully stuck the new dominoes in the bottom of the box. With a roar, the sarcophagus moved backward and then left, revealing an underground hole. The underground cave and the sarcophagus also formed the shape of overlapping two square parts.


    She hugged Xiaobai and laughed, "are you from here?"


    Xiaobai struggled to nod.


    "It''s amazing, Xiaobai. How did you know I was here? How did you find this route? "


    Xiaobai raised her head proudly, as if disdaining to answer her question.


    Zhuo Xi carefully put the bamboo slips back into the box, pulled a piece of hemp thread from the edge of her coarse hemp clothes and tied it to the dominoes. Unfortunately, I glanced at the little girl. Then she jumped into the steps of the cave. She glanced at the box of books and sighed. If the world had arrived at the tomb, it would have been confused by all kinds of treasures and rare weapons and wine, how could she spare her sight to see the box of bamboo slips? Let alone empty it. But I don''t know that my way of life is just hidden at the bottom of the most inconspicuous box of books. As soon as she pulled the rope, the dominoes turned an arc from the air and returned to her hand. The sarcophagus gradually closed. She was short and went to the underpass with Xiaobai in her arms.


    Zhuo Xi swam out of the underground river to a water surface and dragged her heavy body ashore. Xiaobai poked her head out of her arms as if to ask, are you okay? That look is embedded in the small triangular face, not to mention how cute it is.


    She was in a good mood for a moment. She wanted to catch some meat on her face. "It''s okay. It''s okay. It''s just that she''s been swimming for a long time and is a little tired."


    She found a big tree and lay down. Her skirt came off and hung on the branch. At this time, it was the west of the sun. She lay on the ground, took a big breath of fresh air, and watched the sunset slanting on the coarse linen clothes, reflecting a soft light. She suddenly felt in a great mood. This is not only the feeling of the rest of life, but a new rebirth, a new free Zhuo Xi. She suddenly wanted to see what her face looked like, so she ran to the water and looked at herself with the waves. Sure enough, it was a completely strange face, with pretty facial features and a little childish. Even if it''s good-looking or not, she always has low requirements for her appearance, as long as she doesn''t have crooked melons and split dates.


    Ha ha, ha ha, she laughed and lay back under the big tree. Xiaobai came with two red fruits she had eaten before. She already knew that the red fruit was detoxifying. She put the red fruit into her mouth and said strangely, "Xiaobai, you dived from the bottom of the water to the tomb just to save me?" Xiaobai nodded as if to take credit. Zhuo Xi kissed it moved, "you''re great! After that, you will follow me to eat and drink spicy food. " Xiaobai twisted her body. She seemed to look at her and the red fruits on the ground. She seemed to say that now it''s your food that I''m looking for. How can you take me to drink hot?


    I don''t know the origin of the original owner and it. It can risk its life and sneak into the groundwater with the detoxification fruit into the tomb to find the original owner who has been poisoned to the west, but now it''s cheaper for her.


    When it was getting dark, Zhuo Xi got up lazily, put on her outer skirt and walked slowly to the other side of the sun. She knew that after dark, there were some unknown dangers in the forest. She''d better find a place to stay for the night.


    She searched for traces of people in the dense forest. There is a narrow path, which looks like it was left by a woodcutter when he cut firewood, but it seems that no one has been here for a long time. She walked along the trail and saw a tall building with its eaves exposed from a distance. She was overjoyed and ran forward quickly, but suddenly one hand stretched out from the nearby trees and grabbed her, and the other hand immediately put a knife on it.


    The knife slipped from her neck and fell to the ground the next second¡° "Ouch!" shouted a man in the back.


    "What''s the matter?"


    Another voice leaned over.


    Zhuo Xi turned around and saw two men dressed like bodyguards. One of them was covering his hands. The tiger''s mouth was blue, which was obviously poisoned.


    Another older bodyguard pulled out his knife and angrily scolded Zhuo Xi: "who the hell are you? What did you do to him? "


    Zhuo Xi shrugged and didn''t answer. Who told him to put a dagger around her neck as soon as he came up? Everyone has to resist, okay?


    She patted Xiaobai in her arms encouragingly, knowing that it saved her.


    "Little tiger, little tiger, how are you?"


    The bodyguard called Xiaohu covered his hands and was sweating with pain. The blue color had covered his whole palm. He looked at the wound carefully and exclaimed in surprise, "it''s a snake! It''s snake venom! "


    The elder bodyguard came back and bowed to Zhuo Xi and said, "girl, how offending my brother was just now. My brother and I were ordered to inspect the mountain. My brother just saw a stranger rushing here. I was afraid there was a situation, so he made a reckless move. It''s our duty to ask you to spare my brother''s life. "


    "Yes, I just want to stop you and ask why the girl came and why." Xiaohu''s speech was a little vague, but he still had a sharp pain and clearly expressed his meaning.


    Zhuo Xi asked, "who ordered you to patrol what mountain?"


    The elder guard said, "girl, my brothers are officers and soldiers of the 15th battalion of Bai Hui army under the account of marquis Guang''an. They are ordered by the king to guard the king''s Mausoleum here. Today, we are on duty to patrol the mountain..."


    "Brother Wu!" Xiaohu interrupted him.


    Wu Xing comforted him, "I have discretion."


    "Girl, we are really not bad people. Would you please detoxify my brother first and I will explain to you slowly?"


    Zhuo Xi thought, lowered her head and called, "Xiaobai."


    Xiaobai poked his head out of her chest, "do you know how to detoxify?"


    Xiaobai nodded.


    "Then go and find the antidote quickly." It slipped quickly down the ground and went deep into the grass.


    Zhuo Xi looked up and saw the stunned expressions of the two brothers opposite¡° Well, it will be back soon. "


    Xiaohu glanced at her chest and blushed.


    Zhuo Xi knew what he was thinking, chuckled and said, "little brother, don''t your hands hurt?"


    Wu Xing gave him a reproachful look and helped him to sit down. His hand was swollen like steamed bread, and the blue color was almost climbing to his elbow.


    "I''m sorry. I scared the girl." He raised his eyes to Zhuo Xi, but changed his face when his eyes crossed the back of her hand.


    "You... You..."


    Xiaohu obviously saw the tattoo on the back of her hand, and his face looked angry and afraid.


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand and looked at the tattoo on the outside of her wrist. Now she knows that this is the meaning of the funeral number.


    She asked carelessly, "what''s the matter?"


    "You, did you come out of that tomb?" The tiger''s tongue is about to knot.


    "Yes." Zhuo Xi knew she couldn''t hide it and admitted it generously.


    Wu Xing drew out his knife. "I''m sorry, girl. Since you are a slave buried with me, how can you escape from the tomb? This is a great disrespect to the former king. "


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "since I have escaped, what are you doing?" Do you want to send me back to continue to be buried?


    "If you don''t go back, I''ll go to the tomb to collect the body in seven days. If a body is missing, I''ll bury it with you. So, I''m sorry. " Wu Xing came up with a knife.


    Zhuo Xi shouted while avoiding his moves, "if you kill me, you''re not afraid of your brother''s death?"


    His move was a little hesitant, but he attacked again at the next moment, "a brother''s life is not worth 250 lives in the whole camp!"


    "Then think of a way to save your brother''s life and the lives of the whole camp. Wouldn''t it be good?"


    Little tiger''s eyes brightened, "brother Wu!"


    Wu Xing stopped and looked at Zhuo Xi suspiciously, "do you have a way?"


    "I haven''t thought about it yet. How do I know there''s no way?"


    Xiaobai has turned back at this time, with a herbal medicine in her mouth. Zhuo Xi went up to take down the herbal medicine and handed it to Wu Xing, "do you think you should save your brother first or kill me next?"


    Wu Xing put away his waist knife, took the herbal medicine, chewed it in his mouth and applied it to Xiaohu''s wound.


    Zhuo Xi picked up Xiaobai and said, "it''s hard."


    Little tiger looked at the little white snake in her hand with some fear. Wu Xing asked, "what''s your plan, girl?"


    Zhuo Xi thought, "how many slaves are buried in the tomb."


    "The former king died, and now the king is kind and filial, sending a total of 1000 slaves to be buried."


    "Let''s bury them in the mausoleum. Then why kill them?"


    "The funerary objects and utensils in the Royal Mausoleum are extremely valuable. If those Dalits are unwilling to die and destroy the utensils, what should they do?"


    "Hehe, human life is not as noble as utensils in your eyes."


    Wu Xing was stunned. "All kings, grandchildren and nobles have been buried with slaves. All of them are killed in the tomb, which can make their souls stay in the tomb forever and guard their masters."


    "Then why do you have to clean up in seven days?"


    "It''s hard to avoid rotting and maggots when the corpse is left in the mausoleum. Seven days later, there will be another grave to bury bones."


    "Why seven days later?"


    "As usual, after seven days, all the grievances of the dead are gone. At this time, we should ask the wizard to make the loyal soul stay forever."


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath, couldn''t understand their ideas, and asked, "how do you count the number?"


    Wu Xing hesitated and said, "first receive the body, then cut off the wrist to the number mark, send it to the chief for acceptance, and ask the wizard to do it."


    Over a dead man''s wrist? Zhuo Xi can only ha ha.


    She immediately found the loophole, "do you have a rule that it must be your left hand when you stab the number mark?"


    Wu Xing immediately understood and was overjoyed. "No, most slaves prefer to use their right hand. They are afraid that the pain of tattooing on their right hand will affect their work. Only then do they generally stretch out their left hand, but few people prefer to use their left hand and tattoo with their right wrist."


    Zhuo Xi spread her hand, "solved?"


    "However, if you tattoo the body when carrying it, it may be easy to detect."


    "Then go and make the prosthetic hand well first."


    Wu Xing was about to say that the mausoleum is now closed for three days and no one is allowed to go in and out. Zhuo Xi waved her hand and said, "I see. Do you have any paint for tattoo? Lend me a hand. I''ll arrange it myself. "


    That night, she and Wu Xing dived back to the tomb.


    When Wu Xing climbed out of the hole under the sarcophagus, his face was very gloomy.


    He saw the little girl''s bleeding body in her seven orifices and the black worm that died under the spear. He proposed to move the girl''s body to the main hall. Zhuo Xi thought for a moment. If the bodyguard wanted to come in seven days later, it was bound to be restored here. She nodded and agreed. Wu Xing took the little girl''s body and walked to the hall.


    Zhuo Xi found a female corpse similar to her age and began to stab the same number in her other hand. Seeing Wu Xing watching, she suddenly asked, "it was you who slaughtered these slaves?"


    Wu Xing was silent for a moment. "These slaves were going to be buried with us and were destined to die. If it weren''t for us, it would be others."


    Zhuo Xi said coldly, "slaves are also human beings, and they also have the right to live."


    Wu Xing quickly put a long knife across her neck, "do you think you can live a normal life if you escape from here? You''re a buried slave. What rights are you talking about? You deserve to die here. I can''t kill you here too much. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled back, "do you want to go back?"


    "If you didn''t threaten me with a tiger''s life, why do you think I should listen to a slave? A slave is a slave. There is always only the obligation of obedience. Instead of risking fraud, I''d better kill you, the real burial object 826. I can''t let the whole battalion take risks for you, a slave. "


    "How can you prove that I am a slave buried with you?"


    Wu Xing was stunned. Didn''t he tell her before? He was stunned, but he saw Zhuo Xi quickly grasp his big knife and scrape the back of his left hand on the blade, scraping a layer of flesh.


    She raised her bloody left hand. "With this bloody wound?" She turned her right hand holding the blade around her neck, put the long knife across the wall and put it on his neck. Her right foot had kicked into his knee socket at the same time. Wu Xing''s foot bent and was immediately restrained by her.


    She continued, "of course, you can also kill me and stab numbers in my other hand, but first, it''s also a fraud. Secondly, with your skill, do you think you can easily kill me? Saving people''s lives is better than building a level 7 floating slaughter. Besides, you just raised your hand and let me go. It''s up to you to choose whether to make a fake on a dead person or on a living person you don''t know if you can kill. "


    Wu Xing had no choice but to watch her draw the tattoo, return to the main tomb, restore everything to the original state, and then return to Daying along the original road.


    He asked her to stay for a few days and said that he would not let her leave until there was no problem after seven days.


    She thought there was nowhere to go anyway. It would be better to stay for a few days first.

 Chapter 3

    After she returned to the house, Wu Xing knocked at the door and brought food and a set of clothes. He said apologetically, "Miss Zhuo, this is the little tiger brother''s room. He moved to squeeze with me first. At present, there are only the accommodation and clothes of our officers and soldiers. The wronged girl will stay for a few days first. There is only one cleaning woman and cooking woman here, and the rest are old men. For the avoidance of doubt, it is said that my sister came to visit me and borrowed a set of clean clothes here. Don''t dislike it. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "brother Wu is careful. Thank you." Although this Wu Xing is deceitful and changeable, at least she is safe these seven days. What''s more, the coarse linen clothes on her body are so uncomfortable that she can take a bath and change into dry general clothes. She doesn''t care what kind of woman she is.


    "Then please eat first, tidy up and have a rest early."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and sent Wu Xing out.


    When Wu Xing went out, he just ran into another official. The man joked, "Wu Xing, I heard your sister is coming? Isn''t it your sister-in-law in the future? Ha ha ha. "


    "What are you yelling about? It''s my sister, my sister."


    "Not cousin Yimei or something? Ha ha. "


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi stuck on the door, listened to the sound of talking and laughing, walked farther and farther, and frowned.


    The next morning, she woke up in a burst of shouting and listened carefully. It turned out that the officers and soldiers were practicing. I thought that the so-called Guang''an Marquis was too serious. The bodyguard of the only battalion guarding the king''s Mausoleum couldn''t even compare with the regular army. They had to practice so hard. She changed her clothes and went out of the yard with her food box last night. She walked in the direction of smoke.


    A sweeping woman saw her and greeted her warmly, "Miss Wu, get up so early?"


    She stepped up quickly. "I don''t know what to call Mom?"


    "My family name is Wu. You call me Mrs. Wu."


    "Mom Wu, did my eldest brother borrow this dress from you? Thank you very much. "


    "Oh, you''re welcome, girl. These clothes are worth something. It''s an honor for the old slave to wear the old slave''s clothes. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly waved her hand and said, "Mom Wu, don''t say that. When Yongquan reports the kindness of others, I really thank you."¡° She''s a sensible girl, but you came all the way. Why don''t you prepare more clothes when you go out, so you don''t have to get involved and wear people''s clothes? "


    "Mom Wu, to tell you the truth, I ran out of home secretly. It happened suddenly and I didn''t have time to tidy up my package." She said, her eyes red.


    Mrs. Wu immediately felt a big heart of gossip. She fondled her hand and found a circle of white cloth wrapped around her wrist¡° If the girl wants to, tell her mother what''s going on? Old lady, I have big eyes and small eyes with Mrs. Wang every day, and there is no one to talk to. You happen to be here, so talk to the old slave, otherwise this day... "


    She led zhuoxi two steps into the kitchen. When he entered the door, he shouted loudly, "Mrs. Wang, look, we have a Miss Wu to keep us company today."


    Mrs. Wang raised her head from the stove and glanced coldly, "what young lady, is she looking for a lover again?"


    "That''s not true. Don''t talk nonsense. This is the sister of Wu Xing, deputy commander of the second battalion. Right, Miss Wu? "


    "Yes. Wu Xing is my eldest brother. "


    "Hum, I''ve seen my cousin come to see my cousin, but I haven''t seen my sister come to see my eldest brother." Mrs. Wang kept humming out of her nose.


    "Yes, don''t blame us. Although our imperial mausoleum has been stationed for more than a year, although this man is also on duty like a military camp, after all, he is not a serious garrison, but there are not as many rules as a serious military camp. It is common for those cousins to come to the door, but it is difficult to see their sister to come to the eldest brother. Forgive me for asking, is there something wrong with your family? "


    "No, No. Nothing big happened, just, just... "Zhuo Xi bit her lower lip and stopped talking.


    "Look at your grievances. You just said you ran out secretly. Come and tell Mrs. Wu. Don''t hold back any grievances." Mrs. Wu took zhuoxi and sat down. She added firewood to the stove.


    Mrs. Wang said coldly again, "other girls are already very uncomfortable. You have to open the wound and look inside. Look at your heart! I said, "girl, don''t say it if you don''t want to!"


    Zhuo Xi was happy. Although Mrs. Wang was cold, she was a considerate person. But if they were singing double reed, it would be lively. She continued to pull the corners of her clothes pitifully, and her eyes began to wet.


    As soon as Mrs. Wu saw her, "Mrs. Wang, what''s wrong with you. Oh, my God, I''m sorry to see you. It''s hard for you, the official lady, to come all the way. There''s no girl waiting on you. Is there any danger on the road? Your wrist... "She was about to open Zhuo Xi''s wrist," let me see the wound. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly took back her wrist. "It''s all right. I met a blind bear on the road and scratched it twice."


    "Oh, hey, did you meet a blind man? Otherwise, if you, a young lady, really meet a blind bear, you can still be safe and sound with all your hair and tail? " Mrs. Wang spoke again.


    Zhuo Xi stroked her wrist, "yes, I met a blind bear at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately, I happened to meet my eldest brother. They patrolled the mountain and saved me, otherwise..." she called Xiaobai, who climbed out lazily and crawled at her feet. Mrs. Wu was startled.


    "Along the way, I kept company with Xiaobai. I met several bad guys, but as soon as I saw Xiaobai, I ran away."


    Mrs. Wu patted her chest and breathed out, "I said, how can I not have the ability of self-protection. Miss Wu has a rich life. "


    "There is no rich life. I, I... "She couldn''t go on.


    Mrs. Wu almost scratched her heart and lungs. "If you have anything, just say it."


    "I, my family has ordered a kiss for me, yes..."


    "It turned out that they escaped from marriage. It''s not a glorious thing to escape from marriage according to the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers since ancient times, girl." Said Mrs. Wang.


    "It also depends on the situation, girl. Speak slowly, old woman. I''ll analyze it for you."


    She told an old story about her childhood sweetheart but her father''s love for the poor and love for the rich. Immediately, she heard Mrs. Wu''s tearful eyes and Mrs. Wang''s silence. She chatted a lot with the two women and learned that the Wuliang country she is in is one of the five countries on the continent and the largest country with the richest resources. The last king died just seven days ago. He was buried with 1000 slaves yesterday. She was caught yesterday. Somehow she was poisoned and let her alien soul enter.


    She thought of the black worm in the sarcophagus. I''m afraid the dead king didn''t die well. The burial of a thousand slaves is not so much the filial piety of the current emperor as his guilty heart. None of the Royal secrets of the change of dynasties is not bloody and shocking.


    The Duke of Guang''an, who guarded the king''s mausoleum, was the king''s seven younger brothers. Because of physical discomfort, they are deeply trusted. The royal mausoleum was built for more than a year, and finally came into use. When it happened, I heard that he would be sent to the west to garrison the frontier.


    Lala Zaza said a lot until Mrs. Wang made everyone''s breakfast. Zhuo Xi was about to get up and go back to her room for breakfast, but she saw Mrs. Wu holding her knee stiff there, looking unbearable in pain.


    She couldn''t help asking, "what''s the matter with you, mother Wu?"


    Mrs. Wu stooped and didn''t move. "It''s all right. It''s an old problem. I''ve been sitting here for a long time. I''ll be stiff together. I''ll just slow down later."


    "Let me see your hand." Zhuo Xi pulled her palm and saw that the joint between her four fingers was slightly deformed and prominent. She pinched Mrs. Wu''s stiff knee, and there seemed to be a faint subcutaneous nodule. She looked very cold, "Mom Wu, you may have rheumatoid arthritis, which is an irreversible disease. From now on, you should pay great attention to your diet. Don''t eat sour and salty, and don''t eat seafood. Pay attention to drink more cool and detoxifying food. "


    Mrs. Wang was a little gloating: "look, you have to put vinegar in everything you eat all day. Now you''re suffering?"


    Mrs. Wu''s face wrinkled. "I''m old and have a heavy taste. I don''t have any taste. I can''t eat anything without acid and salt." She turned to Zhuo Xi, "Miss Wu, do you still know medicine? Can I cure this disease? "


    "When I read the book, Zhuo said. Your disease is called rheumatism. It is a harmful substance that produces a neurotoxin in your joints due to the erosion of wind, cold, dampness and evil for a long time. There are prescriptions, but the effect is not significant. You can only slowly pay attention to conditioning in your diet, which is the fundamental. "


    "Since it is incurable, what will happen in the future?" Mrs. Wu is in a hurry.


    "It''s possible that the limbs are deformed, the legs and feet are bad at walking, the fingers are stiff, you can''t take chopsticks, and you can''t do other things."


    "Is there a prescription for soup?"


    "You can use Fangji one or two, Huangqi one or two, de Lu, licorice two and a half, fried Atractylodes macrocephala seven and a half, fried three times a day."


    Mrs. Wu mumbled and answered. Suddenly, she remembered something and looked at Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang asked, "if it''s bad enough, what''s the dietary attention?"


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyes and said, "there are many reasons for bad behavior. I can''t judge without feeling the pulse and seeing myself."


    "That is, that is, the woman is abrupt. My child is also a disease brought by her mother. She has been ill for more than ten years. Many famous doctors are helpless. How can we make a simple diagnosis and treatment in a few words? "


    How many famous doctors can a woman''s child see? I''m afraid she''s talking about a man with a big background, isn''t he? Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and smiled. She didn''t say anything, but said, "at present, summer and autumn alternate, damp and hot steam, you can eat more sour and sweet food, supplemented by bitter food, such as lotus seeds, lilies, carrots, Pueraria, lotus root, beans, corn, grapes, yellow pear, longan, peach, pineapple, Hami melon, so as to strengthen the spleen and remove dampness."


    As soon as Mrs. Wang heard it, she quickly wrote it down. Although she was confused about many names and didn''t know what they were, she didn''t ask much. She turned and found some food in the kitchen cabinet.


    Zhuo Xi said goodbye and went back to her room.


    When she passed by the trees, she let Xiaobai out and let him find food by himself. Along the way, I picked some flowers in full bloom.


    Back in the house, I met a tiger. Xiaohu smiled and said hello, "Miss Zhuo."


    She raised her eyes. "When someone comes, you should call me Miss Wu."


    "Yes, Miss Wu."


    "Is your hand all right?"


    "It''s all right, you see." He stretched out his arm. The cyan had faded and the swelling had disappeared.


    "It''s all right."


    "Miss Wu, I came here to tell you that there are all old men living here, you..."


    "I know. Wu Xing told me. Don''t worry, I won''t run around. I just went to pick some flowers in the wild. " Xiaohu looked at the bouquet in her arms and touched her head. "Well, call me if you have anything. We''ll be outside."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, opened the door and went in. She took the flowers out of her long sleeve and put them on the small table. She sighed. The equipment here was so simple that she could only try to extract something useful from the flower juice.


    If only Xiaobai came back.


    She was thinking that Xiaobai had leaned in through the crack of the door, with the detoxification red fruit she had eaten in her mouth¡° Hahaha, Xiaobai, you are really a roundworm in my stomach. How do you know I''m thinking about the red fruit? "


    Xiaobai seems to have been used to her flattery. She climbed into her bed and went to bed under the quilt.


    She suddenly felt like a big fight and began to stir up her flowers and fruits.


    She wants to use the existing conditions to master a technology so that she can make money when she leaves here in seven days, or she will starve to death?


    Wu Xing comes to see her every night. He may not trust her, or he may be afraid of her running away. WHATEVER£¬WHOCARES


    £¿ Zhuo Xi still fiddled with her perfume. She has found the development plan on which she depends.


    On the morning of the seventh day, she still went to the kitchen with her lunch box and said goodbye to the two women. As soon as she stepped into the kitchen, Mrs. Wu quickly stood up from the chair in front of the stove, "Miss Wu, you''re coming." She said with a smile.


    "What''s the matter? What makes you so happy? " She looked at Mrs. Wang''s face as if she was also happy.


    "Oh, nothing, nothing. After listening to you these days, my fingers are not numb in the morning, and my legs and feet are much more flexible. I''m happy! Thank you, girl. "


    "No, I think flowers will appear on your face. Tell me, is your son getting married?" Zhuo Xi makes fun of her. Mrs. Wu has a son on duty in the capital. Some time ago, Mrs. Wu has been looking for someone to see the right girl.


    "Oh, no," said Mrs. Wu, smiling more and more brightly, "I haven''t found a suitable family yet."


    "That''s..." she saw a soft look on Mrs. Wang''s hard face for a hundred years. "Are you going back to Beijing?" What makes them so happy at the same time is to leave the suburbs of Beijing and return to the capital to reunite with their families.


    "Oh, what a clever girl." Mrs. Wu patted her thigh.


    Mrs. Wang gave a cough.


    Mrs. Wu''s smile suddenly stopped, "Er, it''s nothing."


    Zhuo Xi knows. After the last ceremony today, it is estimated that a small team will be left at the king''s Mausoleum and the rest will withdraw to the capital. This is the king''s mausoleum, which may not be far from the capital, but after all, it is not easy to reunite with relatives in this age when the traffic is not very convenient.


    "In fact, my eldest brother mentioned it to me, which is not what you told me. I also came to say goodbye to you today. Tomorrow I will go back first. "


    "Why, are you going home tomorrow? The marriage arranged at home... "Asked Mrs. Wu with concern.


    "Father promised to slow down first, and I''ll listen to fate." Zhuo Xi looked helpless.


    "Then you..." Mrs. Wu was about to come forward and say something, but she saw a young man running in, "hurry up".


    "Lord Zi Ran, what''s the matter? Is this?" Mrs. Wang''s cold face, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, also showed an anxious look.


    Zi Ran? Cumin powder? Zhuo Xi almost laughed. She misses the taste of cumin mutton.


    Zi Ran took a look at Zhuo Xi, and ignored her presence, he said, "fry the emergency soup quickly. Yes, he... "


    "What? Isn''t it not time for the attack? " Mrs. Wang hurriedly rummaged over the cupboard.


    Mrs. Wu was also wrong. "Where''s Doctor Wu? He... "


    "The queen heard that she was about to give birth, and Doctor Wu was called back to serve in the palace a few days ago. He had left several emergency pills, but he was knocked over by a white snake. I said I was afraid that the pill would be infected with snake venom, but I didn''t dare to take it. "


    White snake? The two women immediately looked at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi was also nervous. If she did it for nothing, she couldn''t escape the relationship.


    Mrs. Wu immediately said, "Zi Ran, this Miss Wu has a little medical skills. If you like..."


    Before he finished, Zi Ran''s eyes were full of hope, "girl, do you know medicine?"


    "I know a little, but I don''t know..."


    Zi Ran interrupted her again, "girl, come with me first. I''ll tell you as I walk."


    Zhuo Xi was pulled forward by his sleeve. On the way, Zi Ran roughly said about the patient''s condition, "I was the root of the disease from my mother''s womb. I haven''t suffered less since I was a child. The imperial doctor said that he was a accumulation of cold poison, which is difficult to eradicate. In case of severe cold, sometimes the attack will lie in bed for seven or eight days. "


    Cold disease is bad for the line. Isn''t this the standard configuration of the man in the novel? Zhuo Xi tilted her mouth. This so-called cold disease has been proved by countless predecessors that this disease has no solution in modern times. She doesn''t think that her layman of traditional Chinese and Western medicine with half a bucket of water can solve this disease. Saying is not saying. I can only see how Xiaobai goes. She was surprised at the thought, "you just said there was a white snake. That white snake is now..."


    "I ran away. I was about to catch it when I suddenly fell down."


    Fortunately, Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but saw that Zi Ran suddenly stopped her. She had already arrived in front of the house. "Miss Wu, please wait here for a moment. I''ll come after asking for instructions."


    Zhuo Xi made a gesture of invitation. Zi Ran went into the house.

 Chapter 4

    Zhuo Xi looked around and couldn''t see Xiaobai. She whispered, "Xiaobai, Xiaobai."


    Sure enough, after a while, Xiaobai put his head out behind a flowerpot. Zhuo Xi came forward, squatted down and whispered, "what are you doing here? What are you doing by knocking over other people''s pills? "


    Xiaobai seemed to give her a white look. She twisted her body and turned her head to one side to avoid looking at her.


    Zhuo Xi suspected that she was wrong, "you gave me a white eye?"


    She wanted to twist its ear, but she didn''t know how to do it after watching it for a long time.


    Xiaobai glanced at her, shook his head, fell down and looked at her expectantly.


    She was suddenly surprised: "Xiaobai, do you mean that the pill is poisonous?"


    Xiaobai nodded with an expression of "children can teach". She was about to say something when she heard Zi Ran''s footsteps. So she quickly stood up, gently kicked Xiaobai with her feet and motioned for it to hide.


    Zi Ran hurriedly said to her, "my lord agrees that you go and have a look."


    If it weren''t for Xiaobai, I wouldn''t want to "have a look". She felt sick in her heart.


    She followed Zi Ran to the house and exclaimed, "the green calyx ink chrysanthemum just opened very well and had a strong aroma."


    Zi Ran said, "yes, it was originally put in the house. I thought the smell was too strong, so I ordered us to move out. Even if we put it here, we can still smell the smell in the house sometimes."


    She frowned. It was very hot in the house. No wonder she couldn''t stand any smell. Just in the autumn, a man''s house began to burn carbon. The air was seriously stagnant. It''s strange that people don''t get sick.


    "Girl, this way, please." With that, he came forward and opened the curtain, but the curtain was still there. In the tent lay a man with his hands hanging by the bed, like the hands of a dead man.


    "What are your symptoms?" As soon as she saw it, she put her hand flat on the edge of the bed. This action made her confirm that the man in bed had been paralyzed in bed, and it was estimated that he could not speak. Paralyzed people should put their hands and feet flat on the bed, otherwise it is easy to hang their arms and feet over a long time, and it is easy to cause permanent deformation after recovery.


    Zi Ran said, "as the girl can see, as soon as I get sick, I can only stay in bed and can''t move at all."


    Nonsense, I also saw this, "I mean, what''s the cause?"


    Zi Ran was embarrassed. "It happened several times a year and I couldn''t find the cause. I have this disease since I came out of my mother''s womb. "


    "What was wrong before the attack?"


    "Today, I said I was thirsty and wanted to eat Yanjin plum, but I became more thirsty after eating. I kept drinking water, and then my hands began to harden. But on weekdays, the Lord sometimes greedy to eat two plums, and drinking water is even more common. "


    "How long did it take from the stiffness of the hands to the immobility of the whole body?"


    "Soon, less than half an hour. As soon as I found the pills left by Doctor Wu, I saw a white snake come out and overturn the pills. "


    "If you take a pill, how long can you return to normal?"


    "About 4-6 hours."


    "What if you disagree?"


    "It is possible to lie down for ten days before slowly recovering."


    Zhuo Xi took a breath secretly. If a normal person is paralyzed for ten days, no one can stand it. While catching his pulse, she said, "can you ask mother Wang to come? I want to ask her about your father''s diet recently. "


    "This is natural." He called someone to do it.


    Zhuo Xi pretended to take a pulse. In fact, she wouldn''t take a pulse at all, but it''s always important to act?


    Then she said, "can I see your face?"


    "This... Let me ask you."


    She doubted that this person was like this. How did Zi Ran communicate with him?


    Zi Ran came out for a long time and pulled up the curtain¡° Girl, please. "


    She got up to visit and saw a young man''s face with beautiful facial features. Unfortunately, her expression was dull and her lips were slightly open, which greatly damaged the beauty of the face.


    She turned to her son and said, "I want to ask him a few questions. Can he answer them?"


    Zi Ran nodded, "you can only answer yes or no, blink your eyes if it is, and blink twice if it is not."


    She came forward and looked at her. She was about to ask questions. Suddenly she didn''t know what to call. She then turned and asked Zi Ran, "what do you call your master?"


    "Girl, just call him Hou Ye."


    Although she was prepared, she still felt a little funny to know a marquis under such circumstances. She won''t be killed, will she?


    She turned her head back again, stared into his eyes and asked, "Lord, I want to ask you a few questions, but your personal experience can''t be answered by others. Please forgive me for any offence. You just need to tell me how you really feel. Don''t feel embarrassed. But it must be true, which will help me judge your condition, okay?


    He blinked.


    "Did you want to drink water because you drank water or because you ate plum?"


    After asking, she remembered that he could only do right and wrong questions, not multiple-choice questions. So he repeated the first half of the question, and he blinked. After asking the second half of the question again, he blinked again.


    She was a little crazy. The question was not the eternal problem of chicken laying eggs or egg laying chickens. Why did he answer yes?


    "Well, let me change my angle. Would you like salt or plum? No, you want salt? " She helped her forehead. What the hell is this? Who wants salt?


    Unexpectedly, he blinked.


    She looked unbelievable and asked, "do you want plum?"


    He blinked twice.


    She''s a little excited, isn''t she? Can a blind cat run into a dead mouse¡° Do you want to drink water because you are thirsty? " He blinked.


    "Or because of eating plum?" He blinked twice.


    There is beginning to be a logical relationship. She tried to make her question more professional. "If you want to drink water, it has nothing to do with eating plums?" He blinked.


    But apart from these questions, she didn''t know what to ask. What if she can''t ask open-ended questions? While she was anxious, Mrs. Wang came.


    She was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Mom Wang, what''s the difference between your diet recently and before?" She didn''t notice that the name of the person on the hospital bed evolved from "your Lord" to "Ye".


    Mrs. Wang was shocked, flopped down on her knees, looked at Zi Ran and said, "girl, I didn''t do anything. Zi Ran, you know me. I''d rather lose my life than harm my Lord. "


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly picked her up, "Mom Wang, I don''t mean that. I just want to know about my father''s daily diet. You know, if mother Wu changes her eating habits a little, her health will be better. I want to know if you have made appropriate adjustments to my Lord''s diet recently, which may cause minor changes in his body. Of course, this adjustment is entirely possible to be good. Although he was allowed to attack in advance, it may happen to solve the real cause of his disease, which is very good for him to cure the disease. Don''t be afraid. Tell me the truth. I believe you mean well. "


    Mrs. Wang thought for a while and took a deep breath, but she turned to Zi Ran. "Zi Ran, the Lord is as kind to me as a mountain. If my mother-in-law and son claimed against the Lord without authorization this time, I will thank you with death." Then she said to Zhuo Xi, "girl, you told me that you can eat more sour and bitter things in the alternation of summer and autumn. Recently, I cooked more vinegar and less salt when I cooked the Hou''s food. And at this time, there was a good harvest of lotus seeds. I gave him lotus seed and Lily soup twice more. "


    Zhuo Xiwen said in a voice, "it''s also my fault for talking too much. It''s good for ordinary people to eat like this at the turn of summer and autumn, but the Marquis seems to be suffering from cold, and you can''t eat more cold things. "


    Mrs. Wang blamed herself and kept kowtowing, "the old slave deserves to die!"


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t bear to look straight at her and motioned Ziran to let her get up¡° Mrs. Wang, please wait a moment. I may need your help to prepare some food. "


    Mrs. Wang nodded and looked at her gratefully.


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyes and asked Zi Ran, "I don''t know the pill you said. Can you lend me a look?"


    In fact, she didn''t know what to see. She just wanted to remind them that the pills were poisonous and could not be taken again in the future.


    Zi Ran brought the pill and handed over a small bowl and spoon.


    She put the pill in a bowl and ground it carefully. The black pill showed a fine and shiny powder. She added a little water and the powder disappeared immediately.


    Is this salt? Is it potassium deficiency periodic paralysis? She once saw this kind of patient when she was lurking in the hospital. She suddenly remembered to ask for salt, but it was difficult to swallow. She had to drink salt water, like thirst. When the doctor saw him, he immediately added salt water and potassium, which slowly alleviated his stiffness of hands and feet.


    However, if you eat salt directly, although potassium is added, it is not good to eat too much sodium, and the salt at this time does not know what elements it contains.


    Thinking of this, she leaned over and asked, "Hou ye, at this moment, do you still want to eat salty food and drink water?" He blinked.


    Zi Ran was nervous. "I just asked my Lord. He didn''t say he wanted to drink water."


    She confirmed again. "You want to drink water, don''t you?"


    He blinked.


    Zi Ran was about to cry. He immediately poured a glass of water and rushed over, "master, my subordinates feed you some water." He blinked twice.


    She was surprised. Looking at his beautiful Danfeng eyes, she asked, "do you want to drink water?" Blink.


    "But you don''t want water?" Blink again.


    Son ran ran wanted to cry. Looking at Zhuo Xi, did he drink or not?


    Zhuo Xi said quickly, "he wants to drink water, but he can''t drink water. He''s afraid to let go when he drinks too much." She turned to Jing Yuan on the bed, "right?"


    This time, he blinked after a long time.


    Here, she is basically sure. She turned to Mrs. Wang, "Mrs. Wang, are there bananas in the kitchen?"


    Mrs. Wang looked blankly, "banana?"


    Is there no banana fruit at this time?


    "Then, are there tofu, peas, red dates, peanuts and so on?"


    This time, Mrs. Wang nodded like mashing garlic, "chop and cook these foods as much as possible, and the worse they cook, the better. Grind it into liquid food for the Marquis to drink. " Mrs. Wang repeatedly said that she should go down and prepare.


    "In addition, you can find dandelion, Salvia miltiorrhiza and plantain, seven coins each, one or two orange peel, Angelica sinensis and red dates, and fry three bowls of water into one bowl for the Marquis to take." She turned to Ziran and said. Zi Ran was very happy. In his opinion, as long as he could prescribe a prescription, there would be hope for Hou Ye''s disease. "Thank you, girl."


    Trust her so much? Isn''t it true that only after all kinds of doubts and verifications can they really trust a person with rich experience in class struggle? Besides, she is still a person of unknown origin.


    "Also, this pill can''t be taken in the future."


    Zi Ran wondered, "what does the girl mean..."


    "The pill is not contaminated with snake venom, but it is poisonous."


    "What!" Zi Ran was so surprised that he quickly wrapped up the pills and put them away.


    Zi Ran called a bodyguard and asked him to prepare the medicine.


    In fact, it''s not that he easily believed Zhuo Xi, but that the drugs and food reported by Zhuo Xi are too common and common. He can still tell whether there is toxicity after he followed the Marquis for so long. Now that Doctor Wu is away, since the prescription prescribed by the girl is harmless, why not have a try.

 Chapter 5

    On that day, due to the sudden onset of the Marquis, although Wu Xing and other officers and soldiers successfully completed their tasks and cleaned the tomb as required, they also completed the ritual work as usual and re buried the 1000 hands in the special martyr pit for slaves. However, the top leader did not reply to the matter, and all the officers and soldiers could only wait in the task execution state. Wu Xing was afraid of variables, so he did not put forward the matter of sending Zhuo Xi away. Moreover, Zi Ran often asked Zhuo Xi to "feel the pulse" for the marquis. Zhuo Xi didn''t find a suitable opportunity and asked to leave.


    The Marquis of Guang''an named Jing Yuan got rid of the state of the living dead that night after Zhuo Xi gave the prescription and diet therapy. His limbs began to recover consciousness gradually. In the second half of the night, he could even raise his arms, rotate his neck and speak normally. Zi Ran was overjoyed to find out about Zhuo Xi''s residence. Regardless of the weather, he knocked on the thin door loudly. Wu Xing and Xiao Hu next door jumped up from the bed, tied their trousers and belts and shouted for emergency assembly. They rushed out of the door and found Zhuo Xi next door slowly opening the door with bleary eyes, slowly covering his mouth and asking, "what''s the matter?"


    Zi Ran excitedly took her hand, regardless of the defense of men and women, laughed and said, "Miss Wu, Miss Wu, no, Doctor Wu! The Marquis is awake! "


    Zhuo Xi shivered inexplicably and pulled back his hand: "isn''t he awake all the time?" It''s not dead or passed out. She gritted her teeth and said, "Lord Zi Ran, what are you doing in the middle of the night?"


    Zi Ran touched his nose and smiled, "Doctor Wu, I mean, the Marquis can speak."


    "Oh." She rolled her eyes and was about to close the door and go back to bed. Are you kidding? I woke up in the middle of the night just to tell her that the living dead hou can talk? This is her shit!


    Zi Ran hurriedly stopped her, "would you please go and give me a pulse?"


    Take your sister. Is it useful to take a pulse? She automatically scolded in her mind, but the long-term multi-faceted life forced her to smile: "OK, wait for me to change my clothes!"


    She closed the door with a touch. Just wait!


    When she "changed" her clothes, opened the door and came out, she was already making three achievements. She saw Xiaohu standing in front of the door dressed neatly. She came out and gave a military bow: "Doctor Wu, Lord Ziran told you to go to Xianzhu house when you come out." Just like a respectful attitude of an office worker. Xianzhu residence is the residence of Jing Yuan. It seems that there is still a sensible one. Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction.


    When she arrived outside the Pearl curtain in Xianzhu, she was hearing that the top leader of the military camp was giving important instructions to his subordinates on their actions yesterday - to write a letter and report it to the national leaders, her words must be sincere and respectful, and she must give infinite affirmation and praise to the great filial piety of the current king who personally selected so many slaves to be buried to serve the former king. The office director and orderly Zi Ran stood up in awe and saluted. The last item on the agenda is the next action plan. Jing Yuan implicitly said that Yu Liang, the current battalion commander of the military camp, should clean up and make arrangements. He made the watch in advance, packed his bags and selected good horses, and was ready to start the whole camp as soon as the imperial edict arrived. Yu Liang led out with a trace of spirit of awe, and stared at Zhuo Xi in surprise.


    Zhuo Xi was startled. She really didn''t mean to eavesdrop. Xiaohu didn''t say to wait outside when he brought her in. I don''t think it''s a military aircraft event? Or is he going to kill her? I''m not afraid to die anyway. Does she know more? She was trying to tiptoe outside so that she could come in when he was summoned. But I heard the leader''s voice say in a low voice, "Wu Xing, go and ask your sister to come in."


    It turned out that Wu Xing was also inside.


    She stepped on and saw Wu Xing lift the bead curtain and come out, "six younger sisters, I want to see you." He nodded with a relaxed look on his face. It seems that the number of funerals was handled perfectly, and the matter finally came to an end.


    Is this a handle?


    She immediately looked gentle, courteous and frugal, "yes, brother."


    She lowered her head and followed him in, squinting at him and couldn''t move her eyes anymore. Jing Yuan leaned against the bed with bright eyes. He was no longer the facial paralysis expression of yesterday.


    No, although the eyes are a little more flexible and elated, how can they still seem to have such a facial paralysis expression?


    Wu Xing already saluted and stood aside. Zi Ran coughed when he saw that Zhuo Xi seemed stunned.


    She quickly saluted, "how are you, marquis." She is now the younger sister of acting Wu Xing, so she can''t let people pick mistakes.


    He looked at her for a long time and then slowly said, "you two brothers and sisters don''t seem to have much in common."


    Wu Xing looked cold and said, "if you go back to my Lord, the sixth sister is the daughter of my father''s concubine aunt Zhou. Each of us is more like our own biological mother, so we are not very similar. "


    Well, I''ll be reduced to a concubine''s daughter in an instant. It''s better to be a concubine than to be a concubine. It''s not so interesting.


    "It is said that your father, Mr. Wu, is young and has taken up the post of Shaoqing of Taichang temple. He is a young champion, rich in learning and has exercised in Yun County for many years. Now he is in charge of money, grain and silk. I think he must be able to do it easily."


    Wu Xing is about to speak. Kun Jing gave him a cold look. Wu Xing trembled and dared not answer.


    Zhuo Xi sneered in her heart. Do you want to pretend? Who won''t? She stepped forward and said, "I don''t know anything about officialdom, but I heard my father mention it. In the 26th year of Dachang, my father was promoted to the doctor of Taipu temple, and we moved our family from Heze, Dongshan to the capital. At that time, my daughter was only eight years old. Last year, my father became the Shaoqing of Taipu temple. He just took over the tax. He had a lot of ideas and often frowned at home. However, as a minister, it''s worth it to share your worries and work for the king, even if you try your best. "


    She raised her eyes and looked directly at Jing Yuan''s eyes. She blinked gently for a long time. She immediately remembered yesterday, when she said naturally and quickly, "maybe I''m afraid of drinking too much to let go, right?" when he looked, although she had the same facial paralysis and the same black eyes, she just saw the embarrassment and unnaturalness in his eyes. Just like at the moment, she saw a trace of embarrassment and unnaturalness in the black deep pool.


    So she burst into laughter.


    Wu Xing whispered, "six younger sisters!"


    She pulled his sleeve. "Brother, I''m wrong. Don''t talk about me."


    Jing Yuan didn''t know how she seemed relieved. This test was really clumsy, but seeing that she was a woman so naturally flirting with her eldest brother, he believed that they were brothers and sisters for no reason. This natural closeness doesn''t seem to be formed in a short time.


    He put out his hand, and Zi Ran immediately asked Zhuo Xi to take a pulse. Zhuo Xi turned her eyes again. She couldn''t diagnose her illness. She came forward and cut her pulse. She felt her chin with her other hand and found that she had no beard. She can only ha ha.


    Jing Yuan suddenly made a noise, "girl, you are a wonderful doctor."


    Really, say thank you. Will you die? A compliment is still so insincere. Although her career in her last life was a killer, she was a girl after all. Is there any vanity?


    She said modestly, "the Marquis praised falsely, and the little girl only knows the fur."


    "The girl is modest."


    Modest wool, she really knows fur.


    "The Marquis is in good health. He just needs to stay in bed and wait for his hands and feet to return to normal. Dandelion decoction can reduce the cold, as appropriate. In terms of diet, the little girl will explain to mother Wang later. If she adjusts carefully in the future, the possibility of recurrence of this disease is very small. " Lack of potassium? Traditional Chinese medicine is really not important. The important thing is the trace elements in the diet. If you take them normally, it is unlikely to relapse.


    Zi Ran was overjoyed. "What the girl said is true?"


    "Nature is true." She looked at me whenever she had a problem, "but..."


    Zi Ran was nervous again, "but what?"


    "The pills taken by the LORD before contain chronic poisons. The little girl is stupid and can''t tell what the poisons are. She doesn''t know the length of time and dosage taken by the Lord, so..."


    Zi Ran nodded, "I''ve arranged for someone to check the poison."


    Seeing this, Wu Xing stepped forward and said, "since the Marquis is is all right, his subordinates have an unkind request." He didn''t expect that Zhuo Xi had won the trust of the marquis in just a few days. He couldn''t keep this ¡õ¡õ by his side. He''d better send it away as soon as possible.


    Jing Yuan was closing his eyes and nourishing himself. When he heard the speech, his eyes opened slightly, "say."


    "Shemei has been away for a long time. My grandmother is worried about her. My subordinates are just not on duty tomorrow. Can you escort shemei home first and return here when you apply for time?"


    Jing Yuan was silent for a long time and suddenly asked, "how old is Miss Wu?"


    Zhuo Xi, who was drinking water, almost spat out. Is it hard to put her back? Ask her age what to do? She suddenly had a bad feeling.


    "Empty thirteen." Wu Xing answered with a jump in his heart.


    Zhuo Xi almost spurted blood again. Don''t I know how old I am? You''re only thirteen. Your whole family is thirteen.


    "It''s time to participate in the palace election next year?"


    What the hell is palace election? Is it a draft or something?


    Wu Xing replied, "as a rule, if the school-age daughters of officials with more than six grades have no marriage, they must participate in the palace election. Six younger sisters had previously refused the marriage arranged for her by her mother. Naturally, they were on this trip. "


    Zhuo Xi wailed in her heart. She just said that. Is it so true? Shouldn''t she take the bounty, pat her ass and leave, and then find a prosperous place in the capital to open her first luxury flagship store, and start her rich woman''s life from then on?


    Jing Yuan said again, "if so, how about letting her enter my Guang''an Hou''s house first and be a suitable waiter?"


    Wu Xing''s mind was very fast, and he was very happy almost instantly, "thank you for your grace! I''ll send a message to ask my family to prepare the wealth documents of six younger sisters and send them! "


    "Wait a minute," Zhuo Xi said hurriedly. What international joke did she play? She just regained her freedom and was sold by a so-called "big brother" in a few days? Besides, what the hell is Yi Shi? Is she not the party who has the most say?


    "Six younger sisters," said Wu Xing sadly, "since my father promised to let my mother choose your marriage for you, he just didn''t want you to be selected into the palace as a servant girl. Now, thanks to the love of the Marquis, your father and mother will be very happy and aunt Zhou will be happy for you. " The implication is that you are a concubine daughter. What else do you want to do? Either be a little maid of honor to serve people, or be obediently betrothed to a sesame official. These are obviously not as good as being a female history. There is a way out. What else do you choose.


    Look, it''s really a lie, so we need to use more lies to round it.


    It seems that they are all acting schools. She sighed in her heart, well, since acting is enough, don''t fall off the chain at this critical moment. But under Jing Yuan''s eyes, how can she open her physical store?


    She frowned and nodded at Yi Shi for the sake of a seven grade female history.


    "Thank you for your grace." Can she say no?


    "Well, that''s it. You get back first."


    Zi Ran sent the "brother and sister" out with a happy face, and went back with a happy face. Zhuo Xi felt sick in her heart. What are you happy about? Dare to love is the task of this serviceman. Can you be divided into half?

 Chapter 6

    When they came to a place where there was no one, Wu Xing suddenly turned around and bowed deeply to her. Zhuo Xi was startled. She was full of anger and didn''t think about how to send it out. Why did the black man strike first? What the hell does he want?


    Wu Xing raised his head and said, "Miss Zhuo, Wu has offended me. I arranged a place for you without your consent. But if I don''t go to the end, I will commit the crime of deception, and the whole family, old and young, may lose their lives. So, Miss Zhuo, you will change your name to Wu Yuan in the future. You have resentment and hatred. You come to me alone, but please remember your identity and don''t show your feet. The lives of Wu''s family are all tied to you. " Then he bowed again.


    "Hum, you''re thinking that if I reveal my secret, I''ll lose my life. I have to hide it for you anyway, don''t I? What''s more, if a runaway slave doesn''t have a wealth document to prove his innocence, he will hide and live uncomfortable outside, so you push the boat with the water and give me a new identity? " With such an analysis, she felt that she could not express her anger.


    Wu Xing bowed again, "I think this is a way to have the best of both worlds. Although Yi Shi is only a seven grade female history, it is obviously a serious official position. Your wealth documents are only registered, not sold as a slave. If one day, you find a reasonable reason to resign, and your wealth documents are still in your hands, you can restore your freedom. "


    "Hum, listen, I''m not free for a moment in exchange for your safety, young and old. You''re a good abacus." Although she thought it was a good idea for a while, she was still unwilling. He wanted to kill her a few days ago. He turned around and took advantage of her.


    "The girl has also obtained a legitimate identity to live between heaven and earth, hasn''t she?"


    "I''m just a buried slave. How can I be worthy of the honor of your family?" Angered me and risked my life to see who lost more and wanted a win-win situation? It''s not that cheap.


    Wu Xing smiled bitterly, "girl, I apologize again for the previous verbal offense. The girl must not be an ordinary slave. The girl once said that saving a person''s life is better than building a level-7 floating slaughter. This great cause of floating slaughter is related to the bliss of all living beings. I hope you have a lot. Wu will never shirk any assignment in the future. "


    That''s what he wants¡° That''s what you said. I hope you won''t forget your promise in the future. "


    "Never forget!"


    When they reached an agreement, they took a few steps forward. After a while, I was listening to a distant voice, "Miss Zhuo Xi." they both changed their faces. Wu Xing rushed forward and covered the mouth of the running tiger, but it was too late. Behind him came a confused voice: "Miss Zhuo Xi?"


    She reluctantly opened her smile, turned and nodded to Zi Ran, "Zi Ran." She collapsed. She just negotiated terms with Wu Xing. Is it going to leak so soon?


    She had always been quick witted, and immediately blurted out, "Zhuo Xi is my word. My last name is Wu Mingyuan, and the word Zhuo Xi."


    Wu Xing coughed.


    "Zi Ran has never seen a girl write. Lord Wu, your house is really a scholar disciple."


    Wu Xinggan said with a smile, "ha ha, six younger sisters have been reading a few pages since childhood. They always dislike that the name given by my father is too plain, so they give themselves a sign. We are used to playing on weekdays, so it''s easy to talk."


    Zi Ran also said with a smile, "we will work together in the future, and we should meet often. Miss Wu is always called by Miss Wu, which seems a little angry. If Miss Wu doesn''t mind, I''ll call you Zhuo Xi and you call me Zi Ran, okay?"


    Zhuo Xi listened very well. She didn''t even have to change her name, so she touched her palm and said hello.


    Little tiger stared at Zhuo Xi in amazement, his eyes full of worship. He doesn''t know how miss Zhuo repaired the trouble he caused in a few words, and he doesn''t have to be afraid of making such a mistake in the future.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t tell how much Zi Ran heard. "Zi Ran, have you been here for a long time?"


    "No, I heard the tiger call you as soon as I arrived. I happen to think of something on duty tomorrow. I''ll come back to you before I tell you. "


    Wu Xing breathed a sigh of relief and watched Zhuo Xi and Zi Ran drift away.


    "Zi Ran, I just want to ask, what kind of official is this Yi Shi?"


    Their efficiency is very high. Zhuo Xi doesn''t know what their so-called wealth documents look like. In short, Ziran came the next day to inform her that she can start working formally and sent her uniform. Wu Xing also brought a little girl named Shu Yue, who said she waited on Wu Yuan from childhood. She was at ease and accepted it with a little joy. If she was really miss Wu, even if she was a concubine, she had to have a girl around her, didn''t she? Although she knew that the little girl might come to monitor her more to prevent her from revealing her feet, she might make a small report to Wu Xing in every detail. But she is more happy to have a girl as a companion. Not only does she have to take care of her daily life, but she also doesn''t have to talk to Xiaobai. Most importantly, she can ask Xiaobai about some things in private, such as local customs and eating habits here. One kingdom has one culture, and she can''t integrate and master many things in the details just by living and observing for a few days. Like a kind of grass juice they drink every morning, she always finds it difficult to swallow. It tastes like some brand of mouthwash. She has the impulse to spit it out every time she drinks it.


    "Shu Yue met Miss Liu." The little girl was very discerning. She came up and gave a big gift, and directly showed her loyalty. "Miss six has been away from home for a long time. Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Liu are very worried. They have always been worried. They are very happy to hear that miss six is promoted to serve the Marquis of Guang''an. No, they directly let the slaves bring documents and some daily laundry."


    Wu Xing nodded with satisfaction and went out.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly took her to sit down, "good sister, tell me the truth, did my eldest brother buy it halfway?"


    "What did Miss Liu say? The maidservant is a domestic maidservant of the Wu family. Her mother is the nanny beside her. She served you when she was young. Why don''t you remember? " It seems that she is a strict talker. Zhuo Xi bitterly gave up the idea of asking for information and brainwashed thoroughly enough. Although she doesn''t know who she is loyal to, fortunately, there is no conflict of interest between her and Wu Xing. People should use it first.


    Thinking that she raised her head and pointed to the uniform on the bed with her chin, "since you''re here, change that dress for me. I can start to be worth it today."


    "Yes, miss six." Shu Yue respectfully saluted and went to study the suit.


    Soon, under the care of Shu Yue, Zhuo Xi went out with a new outfit. She secretly congratulated Wu Xing for his carefulness. Shu Yue stays in the house to tidy up her luggage.


    When he arrived at the bamboo house, Zi Ran was cooking the smelly grass juice. Seeing her coming, he got up and gave a big salute: "see Lord Wu."


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly returned a gift, "I''ve seen Lord Zi Ran."


    Ha ha, they looked at each other and smiled. Zi Ran immediately handed her the wooden spoon on his hand, "you come, and I''ll relax later."


    She has learned from yesterday''s explanation that Yishi''s work is actually a kind of senior housekeeper who arranges all matters of the master''s life. The royal family has the right to let some decent housekeepers in their families wear official clothes and enjoy the royal service. On the one hand, it is to reflect the dignity of the royal status, on the other hand, it also reflects the royal privilege.


    Thinking of this, Zhuo Xi flattened her mouth. What kind of female official is the same job of serving people. The difference is that she used to be a slave without income and freedom, but now she is a paid housekeeper. But why haven''t you seen a female servant before in the residence of Guang''an Hou? Zi Ran seemed to see through her thoughts and said with a smile, "although the Marquis is stationed here to guard the mausoleum, everything is the same as that of the military camp. He insisted on sharing weal and woe with the soldiers without bringing another servant. So I''m the only one. "


    "Then why do you need another waiter now?"


    "Zhuo Xi, isn''t it because of your medical skills? Hou Ye believes that a special person needs to regulate his daily diet to avoid the situation of yesterday. "


    She didn''t believe that Jing Yuan only left her for her medical skills. There must be a reason she didn''t know.


    Give her the daily diet? What a big empty door it is. If she is really a spy, she can finish the task in minutes. She suddenly regretted that she was no longer a killer and that no gold owner found her.


    She took the spoon in Ziran''s hand and looked closer. A small pot was burning on the stove. There was some soup burning in the pot. It smelled strange and green. What the hell is this?


    Zi Ran explained, "this is tea soup. Hou Ye has to drink a bowl every day."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the green grass juice in front of her and frowned¡° May I try it? "


    "Zhuo Xi, you are a miracle doctor. Now you are in charge of the Lord''s diet. Don''t say to taste it, you can pour it out and cook it again. But for one thing, the Lord of tea and soup must drink a bowl every day. "


    As she scooped up some tea and blew it, she asked, "why?"


    "This is a medicine given by the hyacinth childe to the Marquis to recuperate his cold for a long time. The Marquis has been drinking this tea soup for three years. "


    Zhuo Xi just took a sip of the tea soup and spit it out immediately. Is it too hard to drink? Hyacinth boy? Still hyacinth¡° What medicine is this? It''s so hard to drink! " She was a little broken down, and the herbs were just herbs. She didn''t have any psychological preparation for what tea soup she said. Is this what people drink? Even if you drink medicine every day, you don''t need to abuse your taste buds like this, do you?


    Zi Ran kindly picked up the leaves on one side, "that''s it. It''s just picked. A large area of short woods over there are all planted with this."


    Zhuo Xi looked, isn''t this the leaf on the fragrant bamboo tea tree? This fragrant bamboo tea, coupled with jasmine flowers, can give off a fragrance like bamboo rather than bamboo and flowers rather than flowers. However, the process is complex, and the time and heat of scenting should be just right. The most difficult thing is that it is very difficult to find completely wild pollution-free fragrant bamboo tea. If it is really made, it will cost at least tens of thousands of yuan a kilogram in modern times. Now it''s a good thing. It''s outrageous and heinous that he takes good natural, pure and pollution-free green tea and cooks it raw.


    She decisively poured the grass juice in the fire pot into the nearby trees and decided to cook it again. "Zi Ran, this leaf is drunk by the Marquis every day. If I have a way to make it taste good, will the Marquis blame me for being troublesome?"


    "How? This is a great achievement! Girl, what can you do? " Zi Ran was excited. Over the years, watching Hou Ye drink this tea soup every day is more painful than medicine. He is also very painful.


    "Well, Zi Ran, please pick some more tea. I''ll go to the kitchen and get some pots and bowls."


    Zi Ran answered.


    She turned and walked to Mrs. Wang''s kitchen. Although Jing Yuan was a marquis, he didn''t provide a small kitchen in his own residence. He only set up a small stove and several bowls and cans nearby in the small pavilion outside the house, which can both boil tea and decoct medicine.


    Just as she arrived at the kitchen door, Mrs. Wu happened to beat the tiger out, "you greedy little monkey, you have to run 800 times a day to the kitchen. What else do you want to eat?"


    The little tiger staggered out with his head in his arms and shouted, "mother Wu, mainly mother Wang''s roast lamb leg is too..."


    Before she finished, mother Wu saw Zhuo Xi coming and gave her a big gift: "see Lord Wu."


    Then Mrs. Wang also heard the sound and gave a big gift, saying Lord Wu.


    Xiaohu hesitated and gave a military salute.


    She said with a bitter smile, "mother Wu and mother Wang, please get up quickly. Xiaohu, you happen to be here. Can you go to my yard and call my servant girl Shu Yue to come?"


    The little tiger ran away.


    She turned to the two moms, "before she was Miss Wu, now she is Lord Wu again. Looking at us in the future, we need to get along for a long time. It''s difficult to call us like this. Mother Wu and mother Wang, you can also be regarded as elders. My little character Zhuo Xi, why don''t you just call me Xiao Xi? "


    Mother Wu repeatedly said, "no, how can the old slave afford to be your elder? It''s too indiscriminate, isn''t it? I''d better call you Miss Wu. "


    Zhuo Xi really didn''t like it. After thinking about it, she said, "why don''t you two call me miss six with Shu Yue? The two mothers still treat me like before. We must not divide because of this."


    The two kings of Wu said they were.


    While talking, Shu Yue came.


    "Shu Yue, come and meet your two mothers. This is mother Wu and this is mother Wang."


    "Yes. Shu arrived at the beginning of the month and called on the two mothers. "


    "How can this make me just a sweeping woman. How can I bother the personal servant girls around miss six to worship? We should go to give a gift to miss Shu Yue. "


    "Mom, you''re welcome. In the future, we all serve the Lord. Although Shu Yue has served me for many years, now I''m on duty in the palace. It''s against etiquette and law for Shu Yue to come here. It happens that I see only two mothers looking after me in this courtyard. I''m a little tired. How about letting her fight for you later?"


    Mother Wang also pushed away, "how can this make?"


    "Mother Wang, the Marquis asked me to be responsible for his meals and tea in the future. There may be many medicated diet prescriptions. Shu Yue has followed me for many years and knows my requirements best. I''ll ask Shu Yue to make arrangements with you, okay? "


    "Since it''s the Lord''s meal, it''s more appropriate to give it to adults and miss Shu Yue." As soon as mother Wang heard it, she was cold.


    Mother Wu looked at her and was about to speak. Zhuo Xi said first, "mother Wu, have you got better rheumatism in your legs and feet? You can also order Shu Yue to do these washing work in the future. It''s important that you take good care of yourself. "


    Wu''s mother quickly thanked him. "How can I ask the girl to wash the Hou''s clothes? Thank you for your concern."


    Is mother Wu still responsible for the sizing of Hou Ye''s clothes?


    "In the future, we are just slaves to serve the Lord. We need all of us to work with one heart and one mind and do our best." Zhuo Xi was a little impatient and hurriedly made a summary speech.


    Wu''s mother wanted to talk and stopped. She looked at Zhuo Xi''s unquestionable look. She refrained from saying anything, but nodded and said yes.


    Shu Yue just lowered her head and didn''t speak.


    Zhuo Xi went into the kitchen, picked up some bowls and pots and ordered Shu Yue and Xiaohu to go to the small pavilion outside Xianzhu house.


    When she put down her arms, Zhuo Xi noticed that Shu Yue''s look lit up.


    Zi Ran was surprised, "dare you ask this girl is..."


    Zhuo Xi said, "she is the servant girl Shu Yue who has been waiting on me. My eldest brother sent a letter to ask her to send me my wealth documents. In the future, let her stay in the villa. "


    "But..." Ziran was about to say something. Zhuo Xi waved her hand and said, "I understand that Shu Yue only helps outside Xianzhu''s house and won''t walk around. What''s more, if I officially take over the catering of the Marquis, there will be a lot of things that need Shu Yue''s help. "


    With that, Zhuo Xi had begun to knead the tea picked by Zi ran into a ball and put it into the earthen pot one by one. Son ran saw Shu Yue looking at her seriously, and her face showed a suspicious look.


    Zhuo Xi said aside, "Miss Shu Yue, I''ll teach you a new way to make tea today. I saw it in ancient books. I don''t know what it looks like. Come on, knead it in this way and put it into a jar. "


    Shu Yue looked happy. "OK, miss, the young lady taught me how to cook Shaohua tea before. I cooked it for Mrs. Tai. She likes it very much!"


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Zi Ran. As expected, she was suspicious. She praised her in her heart. She was really a clever little girl.


    Then she ordered Ziran to light the fire and took a thin stick to stir it slowly. After drying the tea for a while, open it for cooling, then add jasmine to smell it for a long time, and finally dry it again after coming out of the pot for cooling.


    Zhuo Xi took another boiled water and rushed into the newly prepared jasmine scented bamboo tea. She tasted it first and breathed a sigh of relief. There was no way. Such simple hardware could make such a tea. The taste was so light that there was no sense of bitterness. She was very satisfied.


    She poured a cup and handed it to Zi Ran, "drink and see, Hou Ye likes this taste?"


    As soon as Zi Ran drank it, he shouted, "the same tea is much better after being tossed by adults."


    "Adding a little red jujube next time will help the Marquis recover."


    Zi Ran was very happy. If it was such a good tea soup, he could naturally let the Marquis drink more, which would be of great benefit to his health.


    "Well, send it to the Marquis!" She poured another cup of tea and handed it to Ziran.


    Zi Ran was happy and quickly picked up the tea cup and sent it into the house.

 Chapter 7

    Zhuo Xi looked at Shu Yue with a calm face, "you see, now I''m doing the same thing to serve people, although I''m supposed to serve. I''m afraid you have to work harder here than in Wu Fu. If you are afraid of hardship and fatigue, you can bring it up now. "


    "I dare not, and I am not afraid of hardship and fatigue. But when the sixth lady had orders, all the slaves and maidservants obeyed. "


    Zhuo Xi said again, "Shu Yue, you are smart. Although I am a woman, I am not a small bellied chicken, and I hate the hypocritical and untrue people most. Now that you have followed me, no matter who your original master is, I will not treat you badly in the future as long as you do not betray me. "


    Although Shu Yue''s face was calm, her heart had already turned. She knelt down and kowtowed and said sincerely, "miss six, Shu Yue is stupid and only knows to serve miss six wholeheartedly. The sixth young lady can rest assured that although the eldest young master asked me to serve the sixth young lady, he didn''t let the maid do something she shouldn''t do. "


    Zhuo Xi sneered and said he didn''t believe it. "Whether there is or not will be known in the future. But you should remember that if you treat each other sincerely, I will treat you well; If you try to challenge my bottom line, I''m not a good person! "


    "Shu Yue will remember what Miss taught me." She bowed down again.


    "Get up. Put these tea leaves into the jar first. "


    "Yes."


    After a while, Zi Ran came out, "my Lord, please."


    "Zi Ran, what do you call me?"


    "Ah, yes, Zhuo Xi, the Marquis invites you in." Zi Ran touched his head.


    She nodded. "OK."


    "How are you, marquis." Zhuo Xi asked an.


    I didn''t hear the answer for a long time. I raised my eyes and saw Jing Yuan holding the cup of tea like thinking.


    She couldn''t help asking again, "I don''t know if the Marquis called Zhuo Xi in. What can I do for you?"


    "Zhuo Xi? Isn''t your name Wu Yuan? " Jing Yuan finally looked up at her.


    "Lord Binghou, my surname is Wu Mingyuan and my character is Zhuo Xi." She gritted her teeth. Five yuan? Your family is five yuan. It''s not a good name for the five elements. It''s not a yuan.


    Zi Ran grinned aside. She stared at him. She didn''t believe that Zi Ran didn''t explain the origin of Zhuo Xi to him. Didn''t she know it?


    "Zhuo Xi, Zhuo Xi, Zhuo spoon in spring and smoke in autumn. Your name is really better than that of the Wu family. " Jing Yuan carefully tasted the name.


    She was surprised. She didn''t know what he said. She didn''t dare to answer at will. After thinking about it, she wanted to turn the topic aside. "If you think the tea is delicious, you can move outside and cook it now. It tastes better."


    "You mean, you can drink more tea and soup?" In the past, he always kept his word when he finished the task. He really didn''t want to drink more.


    "It''s natural. Drinking more is more beneficial to your body."


    He stood up and moved his limbs. "Ben Hou hasn''t thanked the girl for saving her life. I don''t know if the girl has a wish. Naturally, he will try his best to achieve it for the girl."


    Help? Is it too serious? It just relieved his paralysis. But she doesn''t want to miss such a good opportunity. She then politely followed the trend, "Hou Ye is serious. Zhuo Xi dared not ask for any reward. "


    Zi Ran said, "Zhuo Xi, to tell you the truth, I asked someone to check the pill you said last time. It was really poisonous. So it''s not too much to say that the Marquis accepts your help. "


    So it is¡° Then, is there a solution to this poison? "


    "Yes, yes, but it''s hard to find the introduction of flavored medicine. We''re trying to find a way."


    "Oh, that..." my wish is


    Jingyuan sighed, "I haven''t been out for a long time."


    Zi Ran knew it clearly. He went out and called. Two people came in and carried a bamboo chair. Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Yuan in amazement. Shi ran went to the bamboo chair and sat down. The two big men lifted Jing Yuan out of the door.


    Ah, didn''t you ask me what I wanted? Why did I leave before I said it?


    Zhuo Xi followed out and saw that Ziran had said something to Shu Yue. Shu Yue immediately left. It is estimated that as soon as the Marquis came out, he wanted to keep away from strangers. Why didn''t he clear her? She''s a stranger, too.


    No, no, I haven''t said my wish yet!


    The two big men put Jing Yuan in front of the small table in the pavilion and left. Zi Ran beckoned her over.


    She had to go over and wash several coarse bowls with boiling water. Then she scooped a spoonful from the freshly brewed tea and put it into the tea bowl and presented it to Jing Yuan, "please use it, Lord Hou."


    "It''s really rare to cook such tea soup. I don''t know where the girl learned it?"


    "Zhuo Xi is not talented. He was lucky to read an ancient book in his grandfather''s library, which is recorded in the book. Today, I heard from Zi Ran that it was difficult for Hou ye to swallow this tea every day. So I tried what I wrote in the book. Sure enough, I saw the effect immediately. Just like it. It was Zhuo Xi who made up her own mind. "


    Jing Yuan said, "you did a good job."


    Zi Ran also said happily, "great, I finally solved a big problem in my heart. By the way, Zhuo Xi, you said it would be better to add red dates, didn''t you? I''ll get it right away. " Then he walked away in a rage.


    "Girl, since I know medical skills, I feel my legs are heavy today. Why don''t you feel my pulse again and see what''s going on?"


    Zhuo Xi had to pretend to feel her pulse again and wanted to cry, "Lord Hou, you''re just suffering from cold and disease. Recently, you haven''t taken the pill. The cold gradually gathered on your legs, so it''s a little heavy."


    "Didn''t the girl say that the pill was poisonous?"


    "I speculate that although the pill is poisonous, it also suppresses your cold disease, so..."


    "Can the girl make an antidote?"


    The topic came, but she was much more sure of detoxification than taking a pulse. It''s just that this component is difficult to analyze. Go back and try.


    "I can try. I don''t know if there are any pills?" She cheered up at once.


    "Yes, let''s send it to you later."


    The conversation is over.


    Agreed to meet my wish?


    Say it.


    Her careful thought was written on her face. Jing Yuan saw her entanglement and asked gently, "do you think you have any wishes? Ben Hou will try his best to achieve it for you. "


    Lord Hou, you are so considerate! Her heart jumped with joy, and her little face was shining: "Lord, Zhuo Xi really didn''t dare to take credit for what happened the day before yesterday." It''s all Xiaobai''s credit. "However, if Zhuo Xi is lucky enough to match the antidote and detoxify the Lord, Zhuo Xi has a small wish and hopes that the Lord will succeed."


    "You say."


    "The happiest thing in life is freedom. The little girl bravely wants freedom without the orders of her parents or the pressure of kingship. "


    Jing Yuan was so frightened that he almost stood up. What is the life without parents and the pressure of kingship? Is this what a woman can say? Without a father or a monarch in your eyes, it''s just treacherous!


    Noble as he is, he dare not say he wants freedom under one person and above ten thousand people. Why does she want freedom?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t notice his anger at all and went on, "I want to be free, live a free life, walk freely among beautiful rivers and mountains, miss people who are worth missing freely, and do anything worth doing..." therefore, first of all, you should let me go, and second, you should provide a start-up fund so that I can create my business empire. She was thinking of her words happily, but she was surprised that Jing Yuan had a gloomy face. She raised her mouth and reflected on what she had said wrong in front of her.


    "Freedom..." for a long time, Jing Yuan smiled, smacked the two words, stared at her and said word by word, "how dare you think!" The threatening momentum rushed to his face in an instant, and Zhuo Xi shivered coldly.


    "Someone!" Before she could answer, he made a gesture. The two big men came out of nowhere and carried him back to the house.


    Is this a broken rhythm?


    You asked me what I wanted. Besides, isn''t it so difficult for you to let go of my wealth and documents so that I can have freedom and do a good job? Besides, is she that important?


    The pressure drifted away. She relaxed and shrugged. It was really hard to serve.


    Although the conditions were not negotiated, she actively promoted detoxification. When Zi Ran sent the pill samples in the evening, he looked at a loss. He didn''t know what had happened. He also asked Zhuo Xi why the Marquis was still talking and laughing the moment before, and the moment after, there were dark clouds. Zhuo Xizhao shrugged his shoulders to show that he didn''t understand.


    Unexpectedly, after dinner, Ziran sent another order to let Zhuo Xi and Shu Yue move into the Xiaoqing hospital on the right side of Zhuxi''s house, on the grounds that they can serve the Marquis nearby.


    She thought for a while. It''s not a problem for the girls to live in the men''s camp. It''s better to move in and be watched by one person than to be watched by a group of people.


    So she and Shu Yue checked into Xiaoqing hospital that night.


    Shu Yue showed obvious excitement about this matter. Zhuo Xi could see that her servant girl had the same thoughts and expectations as other ordinary servant girls from her rapid packing and her brisk steps. This consciousness of holding her thigh close to her master let Zhuo Xi breathe a sigh of relief. Now hou Ye is her food and clothing parents. She can''t make any mistakes within her scope of responsibility until she obtains her legal identity after she leaves. Even if Shu Yue is a man of Wu Xing, he should not be detrimental to his immediate boss. For Shu Yue, Jing Yuan is the boss of her two previous bosses. If she doesn''t show this desire to hold her thighs, it''s even more suspicious.


    Zhuo Xi ruled out this risk and safely lived in the main house of Xiaoqing hospital. Shu Yue lives next door to her. In Zhuo Xi''s strong refusal, Shu Yue gave up the idea of vigil for her.


    So on the second day, they started a new life style. Zhuo Xi specially visited the kitchen and warehouse. While dictating, Shu Yue recorded a week''s recipes. Fortunately, Shu Yue was a literate, but she also cleverly wrote down the recipe. Zhuo Xi took it over and pretended to look at it. She praised her handwriting. Of course, they don''t have the concept of Zhou yet. They can only explain to Shu Yue that the cycle of seven days is the best cycle for human body rest. They also arranged daily refreshments, afternoon tea and other related services, and assigned the service scope of Zi Ran and Shu Yue inside and outside. Then Zhuo Xi devoted herself to the work of her detoxification research center.


    When Shu Yue was away, she hid in the room, closed the doors and windows, and called out her external artifact little white snake. First, she poured out her thoughts, and then took out her little pill. The little white snake shook his head as if he had taken ecstasy.


    Zhuo Xi asked it seriously, "I know it''s poisonous, but you know it can be solved, right?"


    Xiaobai nodded and shook his head.


    "Can or can''t?"


    Xiaobai hesitated, nodded, and then quickly ran to the corner.


    Zhuo Xi looked at it and said, "come here, I promise I won''t hit you."


    Xiaobai shrinks tighter.


    Zhuo Xi blinked and understood, "Xiaobai, do you mean that this poison can be solved, but it may hurt yourself?"


    Xiaobai nodded gently and looked at her pitifully.


    Zhuo Xi climbed over and picked it up. "Xiaobai, I don''t know what kind of relationship you have with the original owner, but you are the first friend I know in the world and saved my life. Anyway, I will protect you from any harm."


    Xiaobai leaned over her shoulder.


    Zhuo Xi stroked its back and asked it, "can you find the source of this poison?" There is no way to carry out chemical analysis on the pill. It''s better to know what the poison is.


    Xiaobai nodded, slipped down from her and got out of the window. After a while, he returned the same way, with a herb in his mouth, and turned and drilled out of the window. After a while, he also talked about a herb, and then turned out.


    When it turned and left for the third time, Zhuo Xi stopped twitching at the corner of her mouth and grabbed Xiaobai, "how much flavor is there?"


    Xiaobai doesn''t know how to express numbers. He just smells a herb and finds one. In fact, the most important are the two, which come from the saliva of two toxic animals. It hasn''t had time to look for it.


    Zhuo Xi said, "I''ll go with you. Don''t climb back and forth. I''m dazzled."


    Xiaobai nodded and walked less. Although it moved fast, it was very tired to go back and forth for so many times.


    So Xiaobai led the way in front, Zhuo Xi followed, and saw Xiaobai drilling out of the window again. She helped her forehead. "Xiaobai, can you find a way to go?"


    Xiaobai wags his little tail. I''m a snake. Why should I find a way to go?

 Chapter 8

    As the sun sets, Zhuo Xi follows Xiaobai''s route and has found twelve kinds of herbs. She identifies them. Most of them are non-toxic, cold resistant and blood activating. She hasn''t found the key toxin source for a day. She doesn''t know what Xiaobai means. The people who want to make medicine here are also very thoughtful. They have found more than a dozen herbs to cover up their toxicity. In desperation, she had to put all the twelve herbs into her pocket. This kind of sleeve pocket is sewn in the wide sleeve, which is the only merit of ancient clothes. The pocket is large enough, but it can''t hold heavy things, otherwise it''s easy to fall and affect walking. Seeing Xiaobai swim into the mountains again, she sighed, "Xiaobai, it''s going to be dark this day, or let''s search again tomorrow?"


    Xiaobai wags its little tail again and signals her to follow quickly.


    She had to stand straight, twist her waist, take a deep breath and follow Xiaobai up the mountain. Xiaobai took her to a dry place full of rocks, and then stopped at the hole of a suspected small animal, looking like waiting for a rabbit. Zhuo Xi looked around. It was all red rocks. It was very dry and there was no grass. Along the way, the vegetation is lush, and there is no trace of water shortage and drought. How can it be so abnormal here? She touched the rock and found that it was still warm. The sun has completely set in the West and the sky is getting dark. Zhuo Xi is about to call Xiaobai back. When he comes back tomorrow, he sees Xiaobai stand up vigilantly and stick completely to the edge of the rock, as if to hide his body. Zhuo Xi knew that what it was waiting for came. She also pasted it gently behind the rock and stared nervously at the small hole.


    After a while, the two small stones in front of the cave became loose. Then two big pliers stretched out, and then the whole body turned red. It turned out to be a big scorpion. It seems that the poison source is this scorpion. The little white brush jumped out and bit its tail. As soon as it was thrown on the spot, the Scorpion was thrown onto the rock and fell down. Xiaobai quickly swam over and repeated the old trick. Several times, the scorpion had almost no room to fight back, and finally fell to the ground. Zhuo Xi went over and tied it with the rope she had brought and held it in her hand. It''s better not to put this poison in your sleeve pocket.


    She patted her pocket and said, "Xiaobai, is it gone? Shall we go back? "


    Xiaobai hesitated and nodded.


    Zhuo Xi raised her legs and left, but strangely felt a vibration from the ground, as if a wheel was pushing a heavy load. Zhuo Xi immediately lay on the ground and listened for a while, as if the voice came from below. Zhuo Xi glanced at Xiaobai. Xiaobai looked innocent. You didn''t ask me about it. How can I tell you?


    Zhuo Xi asked Xiaobai in a low voice, "are you hiding here for reconnaissance these days?"


    Xiaobai nodded.


    "Where is that?"


    Xiaobai is very tangled. How can I answer that?


    Zhuo Xi had to continue to ask right and wrong questions, "is there anyone down there?"


    Xiaobai nodded.


    "Many people?"


    Xiaobai nodded again.


    "Very dangerous?"


    Xiaobai tangled again. How can I judge? Nature is not dangerous to me.


    Zhuo Xi also realized the unanswerable nature of this question and asked, "do you know import and export? I mean the way people go. "


    This is a good answer. Xiaobai nodded immediately.


    "Show me."


    Xiaobai looked at the sky and shook his head.


    Isn''t this a good time? Zhuo Xi smiled, "goodboy, you can''t even detect the shift change time of others, can you?"


    Xiaobai looked at her proudly and nodded his head proudly. It was natural.


    "Well, then, let''s find some food for the bottom, and then go in at a suitable time."


    Xiaobai shook his little tail and went to the grass. Zhuo Xi followed it and finally knew that the little red fruit it had found several times actually grew in the tree. It''s difficult for Xiaobai, as a snake, to meander up the tree, roll down the red fruit, and then go back to the ground to give Zhuo Xi the red fruit to eat.


    Zhuo Xi looked at Xiaobai''s painstaking efforts to spin up the tree. Her nose was sour. She couldn''t help shouting, "Xiaobai, come back!"


    Xiaobai looks back at her and doesn''t know why. Zhuo Xi picked up a stone on the ground and said, "Xiaobai, come back and let me serve you today!"


    Xiaobai retreated behind her and saw that she shot red fruits on the tree with stones. A lot of red fruits fell in a moment.


    Zhuo Xi picked up the fruit, wiped it and handed it to Xiaobai, but Xiaobai shook her head, indicating that she didn''t eat it.


    Zhuo Xi was immediately moved again. Xiaobai just found red fruit for her, but she didn''t eat it. She also understood that snakes should eat things like rats and frogs, and vegetarians don''t eat them. She shrugged regretfully. "Well, go find something to eat yourself. I''ll wait for you here." Since we can''t have dinner together, we have to wait here for it to come back.


    Xiaobai nodded and left.


    After about half an hour, Xiaobai came back with enough food and drink. Zhuo Xi saw that his stomach was bulging, and it was obvious that a ball of things was bulging out. It was the first time she saw a snake that had just eaten. She was a little scared to think of an animal that had just been swallowed by it. She quickly shifted her attention, "Xiaobai, do you think the time is about the same now? Are you ready to go in? " She thought it was a good military teacher. She almost depended on it.


    Xiaobai nodded and opened the way in front.


    Zhuo Xi hid in the dark of the stone and followed Xiaobai into a hidden cave, which turned out to be a unique place. It was in the hinterland of the mountain. It was night. There was moonlight outside, but there were bright lights inside. People came and went. Zhuo Xi covered her body all the way, went deep into the hinterland, and almost kept taking a deep breath to calm her inner surprise. She wants to ask Xiaobai what this is, but she also knows that Xiaobai can''t answer her. She can only observe by herself.


    This is a slave factory. From time to time, people dressed as soldiers whip and shout. Slaves in rags pushed carts back and forth. She wasn''t sure what stone was in the car, maybe what ore or something. Suddenly, a little boy pushing the car in front fell down, and his companion shouted, "Xiao Meng, Xiao Meng, how are you?" The soldier on one side waved a whip, "go, don''t be lazy." The man held the little boy while hiding from the whip and pleaded, "officer, Xiao Meng has been feverish for several days. If he doesn''t treat it again, he will die."


    The soldier sneered, "you slaves still want to be healed? Not to mention a child, but a young slave. If you get sick, don''t you know where to go? "


    "Officer, please be kind. Slaves are also human and a life."


    The soldier raised his whip. "Don''t talk nonsense. Go quickly. Someone will take care of him."


    The little boy''s hand held the man tightly and cried weakly, "Uncle Ma, no, don''t leave me."


    The soldier''s whip had fallen on Uncle Ma, "do you hear me, go to work!"


    Uncle Ma wept and caressed Xiao Meng''s face. "Child, don''t be a slave in the afterlife, afterlife."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the empty hand and hated that she had not prepared some weapons, overpowering drugs and so on, so that she had no power to fight back now. Xiaobai swam in front of her and gave her a warning look.


    But Uncle Ma was dragged up by the soldiers and roughly pushed to the cart. The soldier shouted to the back, "two more people, throw him into the waste pit."


    Soon two numb looking slaves came, picked up Xiao Meng and threw him into an empty car like a rag and carried him away.


    Zhuo Xi saw the child''s eyes shed tears of despair, and his face was red with high fever. His hands and feet seemed to struggle to get up. When the man next to him stretched out his hand and pressed it, he was paralyzed in the car again and didn''t move.


    Zhuo Xi followed them quietly and saw that they threw the boy on the edge of an abandoned mineral pit like a rag.


    Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and tried to dispel the disgusting smell from the pit. She slowly approached the boy. He opened his closed eyes in despair and looked at her.


    She asked softly, "how are you?"


    Xiao Meng''s eyes showed the light of hope and said faintly, "sister, save me. I don''t want to be like them."


    "They?" Zhuo Xi couldn''t help looking around for a week. As expected, some humanoid objects were faintly lying on the ground in the pit.


    "They were all sick and couldn''t work..."


    Zhuo Xi quickly covered his mouth and dragged him out. "Leave here first. It''s really smelly here."


    They left so far that they felt the air could barely breathe. Xiao Meng sat down with her help, licked his cracked lips and asked, "sister, do you have water?"


    Zhuo Xi touched the sleeve pocket full of herbs and smiled awkwardly, "no"¡° But I have this, "she remembered that she had some red fruits that she couldn''t eat in her pocket, took them out and handed them to him.


    Xiao Meng slowly bit and ate, "thank you, sister. I''ll call Meng. Sister can call me Xiao Meng. How did you get here? "


    Zhuo Xi tilted her head and thought about not introducing Xiaobai. So he said, "I went up the mountain to collect herbs and accidentally fell into this cave. By the way, where is this place? What are you doing? "


    "This is a mine. After we slaves were bought, we sent them directly to mine here. Once you get sick and can''t work, you''ll be thrown away. "


    "What mine are you digging?"


    "Copper mine."


    "Copper mine?"


    "Well, it''s a stone with yellow and green spots. Like this stone with red spots, it will be abandoned here." Xiao Meng pointed to a stone against his back and said.


    Zhuo Xi looked. This red spot is the rust formed by the oxidation of iron. It seems that this is iron ore. There may be a smelting place in a cave, so the place where she just stood was dry and hot, and even the stones on the mountain were baked hot. The whole mine cave is hidden in the mountainside. No one leads the way. It''s difficult to find here. But why is iron ore abandoned in large quantities?


    After eating the red fruit in his hand, Meng said, "sister, I''m much better. Thank you."


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and said, "wait here for a moment. I''ll find you some sweaty herbs. Maybe you''re just tired, cold and fever. Just take two pills."


    Meng Honghong''s face radiated a look of hope, "thank you, sister! You are a good man! "


    Zhuo Xi stood up and went deep into the forest.


    While following Xiaobai, she read, "Xiaobai, Xiaobai, find some antipyretic drugs. No, no, find some more trees to dispel the cold and heat."


    Suddenly, she felt something coming from behind her ears. Her head tilted and she saw a dark dart nailed to the trunk in front. Then a masked man in black came with a sword. Zhuo Xi dodged a few moves with her bare hands. Seeing Xiaobai waiting for an opportunity to attack, she quickly shouted, "Xiaobai, go." As soon as she called, the masked man turned his sword and was about to attack Xiaobai. Xiaobai narrowly escaped. It seemed that he also realized that today''s enemy was not so easy to deal with. He took a quick look at Zhuo Xi and disappeared into the grass silk. Zhuo Xi was relieved and focused on dealing with the masked man in front of her. But obviously, the masked man''s martial arts were very high. Zhuo Xi was defeated in less than ten moves.


    The man in black escorted her to another person. It was a strange voice, "master, she is the only one. The little white in her mouth is a little white snake."


    Zhuo Xi raised her head, and the figure was hidden in the dark¡° Why are you here? Why save the slave? " He asked.


    "I can only answer your second question. I saved him because he needed to be saved, and I happened to be able to save him."


    "Save him? You can''t even save yourself now. "


    "Are you going to kill me? I want to ask, but why did you kill me? You and I have never known each other. I just want to find some herbs in this mountain. I think I have done nothing wrong. " Zhuo Xi raised her head and asked. Are ancient people like this, indiscriminately fighting and killing?


    "Nothing wrong? Just because you come to this mine is enough for you to die ten or eight times. "


    It was illegal exploitation? Zhuo Xi immediately figured out that the governments of all dynasties had very strict control over resources, not to mention the metal minerals in the cold weapon era, which could cast coins and weapons every minute.


    "Hum, it''s just a copper mine. I don''t pay attention to it."


    The man in black next to her sent the knife around her neck, "if you know the truth, say it quickly. Who sent you? Who are you loyal to? "


    "Ha ha ha," Zhuo Xi laughed up, "my loyal man? No one in this world deserves my loyalty! " I''m a man who died once. If I die again, I''ll go through it again. Be arrogant before you die.


    "No one deserves your loyalty? What is worth it? " The man asked again in the dark.


    It is rare for someone to be a curious baby, so she explained, "the so-called loyalty must be what I read, respect, feel and ask in my heart. When I come to this world, there is no one to read, respect, grace or desire. I am loyal to no one but myself!"


    No one to read, no one to respect? Didn''t you hear that she had a childhood sweetheart and escaped from the house for him? No sense of grace, no desire? What was it after he liberated her before the palace election and gave her the position of female history? What was the "freedom" she asked for that day?


    She continued, "since I have no master, I will not reveal the secret here. If you are the owner of the mine, I saved a slave and saved a property for you. Shouldn''t you thank me? If you are not the owner of the mine, why do you care if I know the secret? "


    Jing Yuan in the dark smiled and said, "even so, I don''t seem to have a reason to kill you. Let her go. " The man in black next to Zhuo Xi stepped back. She touched her neck. The coolness of the blade seemed to be still on it, "can I go?"


    The man nodded in the dark. The man in black was worried, "master!"


    "Let her go."


    Zhuo Xi Shi ran tidied up his clothes, waved his hand and left.

 Chapter 9

    The man in black faced Jing Yuan, "master, do you really believe her?"


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment. "What if you don''t believe her? I still need her to find the antidote for me. "


    "Young master hyacinth..."


    "The medicine guide he said is very difficult to find. I don''t know how long I have to wait or how long I can wait."


    "If she was really sent by that man, now she finds the mining area..."


    "Jian Yi, she won''t be sent by that man. Although her origin is unknown, she is arrogant and unruly. It doesn''t look like a detailed work. " Which one of the masterpieces has blatantly asked the Lord for freedom? The craftsmen are eager to be deeply hidden and low-key, and never be found.


    "Maybe she''s hard to get?" Easy to ask.


    Jing Yuan was silent. Why did the silent dark guard start to carry it¡° Maybe. Tomorrow will know whether it is hard to get. "


    "Why?"


    Jing Yuan looked at the half dead scorpion on the ground and said, "she will come again."


    "She is within our sight. If there is any trouble, our subordinates will inform us in time."


    "Go and check the situation in Wu Xing''s house."


    "Yes."


    Zhuo Xi went out and soon saw Xiaobai drilling out of the grass. She picked it up and comforted it for a while. She explained that it must pay attention to safety when going out to look for food. If it can''t fight, it must run. Life is precious. Then she found some needed herbs, returned to Meng''s place, gave him the herbs and told him to take the medicine to have a rest. Qumeng can barely stand up and walk. Zhuo Xi walked out of the mine and returned to Xiaoqing courtyard in his thousands of thanks.


    When Shu Yue saw her coming back, her anxiety disappeared, "Miss Liu, you''re finally back. I''ll bring the meal in the kitchen. I''ll keep it warm for you. "


    "Well, go." Zhuo Xi nodded. She was going back to the house to tidy up the herbs.


    When she took out everything, she always felt that something was missing. She stared at the sleepy little white for a long time and patted her thigh, "ah! That scorpion! "


    Xiaobai softened her body and closed her eyes. This point, who cares about scorpions!


    Zhuo Xi was depressed. She must have lost it when fighting with the man in black. I have to look for it again tomorrow.


    Shu Yue knocked on the door outside, hid Xiaobai and a dry herb, and called in.


    Shu Yue put the food box on the table and said, "today, mother Wu asked about the young lady and said she couldn''t see her. She went to the back kitchen."


    "Just watch the kitchen for me. It doesn''t matter whether I go or not."


    "But mother Wu said that it would be better for the young lady to have a look at some things in person."


    "What happened?" What happened to Zhuo Xi''s intuition.


    "Today, I went to the kitchen to prepare all the ingredients according to the list provided by the young lady. I found that the color of red peony seems to have faded. I asked mother Wu. Mother Wu shook and said she didn''t understand, but she suggested that I should give it up just in case."


    "Do you have red peony with you?"


    "I hid some. I thought mother Wu was right, so I didn''t add this medicine. I made my own decision. Please punish me."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the red peony she took out and found that the color was slightly light. After smelling it, it should be another herbal medicine white peony.


    The recipe she provided contains a little traditional Chinese medicine. Although she can''t recognize the pulse, through Zi Ran''s narration and her observation, the recipe is only general neutral and warm food, with a few traditional Chinese medicines to show its medicinal properties. Zhuo Xi identified with Shu Yue yesterday. Fortunately, the classification of ingredients and drugs in the back kitchen is neat, especially the drugs are placed in a grid like a pharmacy, and the drug name is marked on the drawer. She also saw that the classification was clear and clear, so she assured Shu Yue to take the recipe according to the list every day. Unexpectedly, Shu Yue could recognize a slight decrease in color only by glancing at it yesterday. She secretly admired her thoughtfulness.


    "Shu Yue, who else knows about this?"


    "No one. It happened that mother Wu was cleaning while the maid was taking medicine. The maid asked her. " You''re actually looking for a witness? So as not to be framed.


    "Mom Wu, please come here." Zhuo Xi thought that it was no coincidence that Wu''s mother was cleaning inside.


    "Yes." Shu Yue answered.


    The difference between red peony and white peony is not only one color, but also their medicinal properties are very different. The most terrible thing is that there happened to be a Veratrum pigtail soup in the diet she provided that day. This soup can clear phlegm and relieve cough, but it can not be taken with white peony. White peony is cold, which may not only aggravate the cold of Jing Yuan, but also cause vomiting and great damage to vitality in case of Veratrum.


    Zhuo Xi thought and couldn''t help sweating. This is when she took office, thinking about these messy things. Zhuo Xi fell asleep quietly with her head full of doubts.


    This night, there were many people who couldn''t sleep.


    In the bamboo leisure residence, the lights are bright. Zi Ran said it again in front of Jing Yuan. In front of them, there was a food box. A cat was eating the food in the box with relish. In fact, these two days, Jing Yuan didn''t eat a bite of the meal Shu Yue made according to the prescription. Zi Ran fed it to the cat, but he didn''t see any adverse reaction from the cat.


    After listening to Lai HAZ and Qu pulse, Jing Yuan asked, "is she asleep? Are there any other changes? "


    Zi Ran nodded, "No. I haven''t seen any changes in her these days. "


    "Stare at her, and that Shu Yue."


    "Since the master suspects her, why let her take charge of the meal?"


    "Often the easiest place to start is the most difficult place to start."


    "Since we want to test her, what we do today, don''t we scare the snake?"


    "It''s just to scare the snake, but I don''t know which snake it is."


    Zi Ran nodded, "it shouldn''t be Miss Zhuo Xi. The flying pigeon, the son of the hyacinth, replied, "the prescription for medicinal food she gave is very beneficial to the master. There is nothing strange."


    "However, with the wisdom of hyacinth, there is no idea of integrating medicinal materials into the diet. How did Zhuo Xi think of it?"


    "Maybe it''s Miss Zhuo Xi''s medical skills."


    Jing Yuan sneered, "hum, medical Superman? She didn''t even get a pulse right. I doubt she''ll get a pulse at all. "


    Zi Ran was surprised, "what? But the hyacinth childe said, "this woman is very good at pharmacology and has a clever mind."


    "Are you proficient in medicine through pharmacology? I can''t even see the pulse. How can I give the patient the right medicine? "


    Zi Ran knelt down and said, "my subordinates, damn it, you had a relapse that day, and it was very dangerous. Doctor Wu was far away in the King City. My subordinates had to ask her to treat you. "


    "Get up. You are also in a hurry. I don''t blame you. "


    "My subordinates are brave, so why did you leave her afterwards?"


    Jing Yuan thought, "in fact, Ben Hou doesn''t know. It''s just intuition. Letting this person go will be very disadvantageous to us."


    Zi Ran touched his nose and was a little sad. He gave someone a seven pin female history with an intuition. He thought how hard he had spent to be promoted to the seven pin personal bodyguard of the master. Alas, people can''t compare with each other.


    Jing Yuan picked his eyebrows and looked at him, "why, is it delicious?"


    "Subordinates dare not." Zi ran quickly wants to bow down again.


    "All right, all right, you want to be with me all your life, but she may not."


    "My subordinates understand that it is a blessing for my subordinates to serve the Lord for eight generations."


    "Cough, why are you so disgusting?" Jing Yuan cried and laughed, "Ben Hou knows your loyalty. Don''t say such words again." Have you got goose bumps?


    Zi Ran started up.


    Jing Yuan made a gesture to the air, "Jianyi, let Jianrong go and secretly protect Miss Zhuo Xi." He focused on the word protection.


    There seemed to be a sound of something passing in the air.


    Zi Ran was not surprised, and said with a cold look, "master, we don''t have much time. Our apparent task has been completed, and the decree of evacuation is coming soon. The mine that the king asked me to mine secretly is only half done. He will do something. "


    Jing Yuan said, "we don''t have much time, and they don''t have much time either. If we evacuate, someone will take over the mine. Is there any news in Beijing? "


    "Not yet."


    "If this is a game at the beginning, we should be prepared with both hands. He doesn''t trust my brother, and Ben hou can''t wait to die. "


    "Yes, my subordinates will pay close attention to the movements these days. They can''t let a fly in or let a fly out."


    "These days, people have been waiting at the entrance of the mine. They can''t relax for a moment. Only the imperial army is left in the mountain, and all our people withdraw. "


    "Yes."


    "If the flies can neither go out nor come in, they can only bump."


    Unfortunately, they guard against flies, but they don''t guard against a small white snake. The next morning, Xiaobai took the tightly bound scorpion from the mine to Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi was surprised and said, "Xiaobai, you are a natural spy." But when he untied the rope, the Scorpion was dead. A dead object cannot make it actively secrete fresh venom. Zhuo Xi burst into tears. Forget it. She already knows the scorpion''s nest. Go again in the evening to see if there are any relatives of it and catch one back.

 Chapter 10

    At noon, the king''s decree arrived. Jing Yuan and others set up a incense table in the main hall in the middle of the villa and received the imperial edict. The main idea is that Jing Yuan handled the burial of the first king very well. The king was very satisfied. He heard that Jing Yuan had a relapse and asked him to pack up his bags and return to Beijing on time in three days. In front of the eunuch delivering the order, Jing Yuan ordered the people to go back, pack their bags and set out three days later.


    In the evening, Zhuo Xi hurriedly prepared dinner and sent it to Jing Yuan. When she went out, she saw a cat. She looked at it and found that the cat was holding a bone in its mouth, spitting out and swallowing to play games. Her eyes narrowed, she smiled and went out as planned. She took Xiaobai to the scorpion''s cave, drew a gourd, caught a bigger reddish brown scorpion, and returned to Xiaoqing court with pride.


    When she returned to Xiaoqing hospital, she saw the poison in her hand when she passed by Zhu''s house. She wanted to make fun of Jing Yuan and report today''s work and the progress of detoxification task to the current leader. She walked softly into the bamboo house and saw that the door of his bedroom was closed and the lights were flickering inside. She thought she hadn''t fallen asleep yet. She gently pushed the door open. There was a figure behind the screen. She jumped into the screen with poison to scare him, but she saw him sitting in a big barrel with his back to her naked. Scared, she quickly turned around. Fortunately, she didn''t make a sound. She was about to sneak back the same way, but she heard him say, "Ziran? You''re just in time. Wipe my back. "


    She took the poison and compared it to his back, thinking that she was not afraid to poison you!


    She put down the poison in her hand and saw the white cloth lying aside. She sighed. Forget it. It''s just a part of her work. She picked up the white cloth, looked down on his back, and looked stunned. His back was covered with winding wounds, not like knife wounds, but like scalds.


    She rubbed his back gently.


    Jing Yuan noticed the difference and deliberately said, "wipe the front too."


    As soon as she closed her eyes, she extended her hand to his armpit. Jing Yuan grabbed her wrist, turned back and threw her into the water.


    "Ah!" She let out a cry and held on to the edge of the bucket.


    Jing Yuan cut him with a hand knife. Zhuo Xi dodged and stood at his feet, so he fought with him barehanded. With a pick at Jingyuan''s feet, Zhuo Xi slipped into the water again. The moment she raised her head from the water, Jingyuan was stunned. Her forehead was wet on her head, her lips were red and her skin was white. Although she was not a country or a city, there was an unspeakable moving scene at this moment. Immediately he reached out quickly and fiercely behind her ear.


    "No!"


    Zi Ran, who was walking outside the house, heard a scream and almost rushed in. When he heard the word "no", he stepped back and touched his nose. Well, the master is also a normal man.


    Zhuo Xi in the house looked at the man with bare upper body and wet right hand holding her little white. Zhuo Xi looked at him pitifully and begged, "Marquis, I just came in to report my work to you. Would you please let it go? "


    "Report?"


    "That''s the report." As soon as she was nervous, she forgot to drop her book bag¡° Master, my subordinates have basically found out the source of the poison you took. This is it. " She pointed to the tightly wrapped scorpion on the ground¡° I can find the poison source. It''s all up to Xiaobai. Your adult, let it go. "


    "Its name is Xiaobai? Is it your pet? "


    "Yes, it''s estimated that whether we can detoxify in the future depends on it."


    "Last time, Zi Ran said that the white snake that knocked over the pill was also it?" Jing Yuan narrowed her eyes and looked at the clothes soaked in water in front of her chest. The exquisite curve was completed.


    "Yes, Xiaobai is naturally sensitive to poisonous things and can be found at a glance. It is to its credit. " She hurried to ask for help for Xiaobai.


    "No wonder you said last time that you found the pills poisonous and didn''t dare to take credit."


    "Now find the poison source, and the day of detoxification is just around the corner."


    "After detoxification?" Still thinking about her freedom?


    "But at the behest of the Lord!" As soon as she bites her silver teeth, it''s important to save Xiaobai first.


    "If I let it go, it won''t bite me back?"


    "Absolutely not. Xiaobai is very obedient."


    Jingyuan gently put down Xiaobai and watched it quickly get into Zhuo Xi''s arms.


    He swallowed his saliva and felt that his lower body seemed to have changed a little. He immediately sat down and sank into the water, waved his hand and said, "get out."


    She showed a puzzled expression of "you''re not afraid of it", but she saw that he had to raise his arm again. She quickly said "yes", put Xiaobai on the ground, "Xiaobai, go back to the house first." Xiaobai swims away quickly.


    Jing Yuan sat in the barrel, looked at Zhuo Xi, who was wet all over, laughed and asked, "you don''t go yet. Do you want to wait for bed?"


    She gushed out her old blood and lived for so long. Was she molested?


    "Bedtime? You old man has to think about sleeping with me. " She muttered sadly and angrily and got up to climb out of the barrel.


    Although the Marquis seems to be in his early twenties, who knows if the prince is actually over thirty, and there are already groups of wives and concubines in the house? Although she doesn''t have a stubborn "place" plot, the number of men used can''t be too many, otherwise she will have psychological obstacles.


    Jing Yuan''s ear was super strong. She listened to her self-talk really. She couldn''t help being angry. She grabbed her belt on the water and pulled it. Zhuo Xi turned around with the pull of the belt and turned into Jing Yuan''s arm.


    Jing Yuan''s lips came into her ear and said softly, "what else should we consider? It''s better to bump into the sun than to choose a day. Let''s test you tonight. How old is this old man? "


    Zhuo Xi felt cold for a while. This old man, why do you find such a good ear?


    She turned her head and held his face in both hands. "Hou ye, do you mean that I should serve and have the duty of sleeping?" God damn it, why didn''t Zi Ran tell her such an important service?


    "It''s natural. It''s appropriate to serve. You don''t think that this seven grade female history just arranges clothes, food, housing and transportation, do you? Why, you don''t want to? " His arm was wrapped around her waist, and he couldn''t grasp it. At this moment, he really felt clutching.


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand to wipe the water drops on her face, licked her lips, and said with a smile, "how could it be? Guang''an Hou is incomparably handsome and famous. How many women are looking forward to climbing your bed. "


    Zhuo Xi''s lips were licked by her, and became more and more charming. Against her wet black hair on her cheeks and forehead, she looked particularly charming. Jing Yuan felt a fever in her stomach and couldn''t help kissing her lips.


    Zhuo Xi held her breath and waited for the moment when he kissed her. Who knows, Jing Yuan slapped her on the chest at the last moment when she was about to kiss her¡° If there is no fragrance on your lips, you''d better leave it to yourself. " Since he was five years old, women have been trying to harass him with all kinds of MI Xiang and Mei Xiang. If it had no fragrance, he could recognize it at random.


    Zhuo Xi flew out, stroked his chest and wiped it. He still ate tofu.


    Zhuo Xi stroked her chest and returned to Xiaoqing hospital. It was late. Shuyue''s house was dark and thought she was asleep. Fortunately, he showed mercy and didn''t use much internal power. Otherwise, she, who has no internal power, will not die if she is slapped on the chest by a person with high martial arts like him? She lay in bed, but she felt her body getting hotter and hotter.


    So this incense is called Ruo Wuxiang?


    Shu Yue, Shu Yue, why do you take a infatuation fragrance with you? Did you hug your thighs too thoroughly? She hasn''t found a suitable herb to make poison these days, but she has made a lot of antidotes. Last time I saw Shu Yue sorting out her baggage, there was a bag of MI Xiang. I thought it was an ordinary Mi Xiang, so I put it in my pocket. Today, I thought it was just in use. Unexpectedly, it was infatuated incense?


    She thought about all kinds of herbs in the house and found that she had not prepared the antidote of ecstasy. Because in modern times, she only needs to make ecstasy drugs to kill people in happiness, but she has never prepared an antidote to ecstasy drugs. Not to mention that she never mistakenly drank the drink with the pill. Even if she was accidentally poisoned by infatuation, wouldn''t it be solved by looking for a man? But this is ancient. Can you find any man? Besides, she doesn''t want to wronged herself. If you knew it was love poison, you shouldn''t let Jing Yuan go.


    She shook her head violently and was startled by her idea. It seems that she will continue to look for some herbs tomorrow.


    She whispered to Xiaobai, who was already asleep, wiped the overpowering drug on her lips with her hand, sniffed it, and asked, "Xiaobai, can you find the antidote?" Xiaobai nodded and woke up. He slipped out to find an antidote.


    She deliberately shouted in the room, "Shu Yue, Shu Yue..."


    Shu Yue didn''t call, but called mother Wu. Mother Wu knocked at the door and came in, "Oh, what''s the matter? Why is it so hot? "


    "Mother Wu, where''s Shu Yue?"


    "This little hoof will disappear after dinner. I happened to pass by here. When I heard Miss Liu shouting, I came in and had a look. How are you, Miss Liu? " It''s so late that a sweeping woman can pass here. She must come out of zhuxianju.


    Zhuo Xi continued weakly, "I''m afraid I''m poisoned."


    "Ah? What can I do? Yes, I have to go to the doctor. "


    She got up to go out and turned back, "no, miss six, you are a miracle doctor. Miss six, what do you say you need an old slave to do?"


    Zhuo Xi struggled to thank her, "thank you, mom Wu. Please go to the back kitchen warehouse and find 3 yuan for autumn Narcissus, 3 yuan for mountain arrowhead, 5 yuan for Hemerocallis root, 3 yuan for Veratrum and 5 yuan for Solanum nigrum. Fry three bowls of water into one bowl of water. Please bother your mother. "


    "You''re welcome, Miss Liu. I''ll find it now. This comfortable month, where did you go at the critical time? You must say it well when you come back. " She opened the door and went out while scolding.


    When Xiaobai came back, Zhuo Xi had taken the medicine with the help of Wu''s mother and was calming the surging desire in her body with the help of the medicine. This medicine is just an ordinary antidote. It can only be better than nothing. She did this to let everyone know that she was poisoned by a poison that didn''t even have an antidote. However, she found that the medicine had little effect. Not only the body but also the skin seemed to be turning outward with heat, and the blood seemed to boil. She was so hot that she saw the cold water in the small basin soaking her hands start to heat up.


    At the moment, when she saw Xiaobai coming back, she was very happy, but she saw that it still brought back two red fruits. She was angry. "Xiaobai, do you think this is a panacea? Any poison can be solved? "


    Xiaobai nodded.


    She still wanted to scold, but suddenly she was stunned, "Xiaobai, you said, this red fruit can detoxify a hundred poisons?"


    Xiaobai nodded again.


    "Really?" She was skeptical, wiped the red fruit dry and took it down into her stomach. Sure enough, after a while, she obviously felt the dryness and heat in her body slowly subside.


    She asked again, "if you can detoxify a hundred poisons, can you detoxify the pill?"


    Xiaobai tangled for a while, shook his head and nodded again.


    what do you mean?


    "Can you solve it?" She asked.


    Xiaobai shook his head and nodded again.


    "Can''t solve?"


    Xiaobai nodded and shook his head.


    "That is, can alleviate, but can''t cure?" She shouted excitedly.


    Xiaobai nodded.


    Hahaha, Xiaobai, you are really my external artifact. Did God send you to save me?


    It seems that her freedom is just around the corner.


    However, thinking that she had just promised to "let the Marquis send" in order to save Xiaobai, she breathed again. It''s really lucky.


    Jing Yuan, who lives in the bamboo house, was puzzled after listening to Wu''s mother''s description. He didn''t know whether she deliberately seduced him or inadvertently used the wrong overpowering drug. He thought of her eyes shining that day and said, "I want to be free, without the orders of my parents and the pressure of kingship!" What kind of absurd idea is this?! How can a man live without his parents'' orders? No one can disobey the throne. If the girl is loyal to herself, Why tempt him? Besides, if there is no incense in her, it is obvious that she can''t detoxify with the prescription she prescribes. Is she betting on her own life?

 Chapter 11

    Early the next morning, Shu Yue came to apologize to her.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the clever girl kneeling under her and sighed. After all, she was not her own. She only threw the bag if there was no fragrance in front of her, and Shu Yue''s face changed greatly. She thought it was just a dereliction of duty, but she didn''t think it was this bag of powder.


    She has just racked her brains. The fabricated story about yesterday''s disappearance is completely useless.


    "Come on, who are you working for?"


    "Miss six!"


    "My big brother? Or someone else? "


    "Miss has never trusted me. Even if I said it, would you believe the slave?"


    "Whether you say it or not, believe it or not."


    "Maidservant, maidservant..."


    "Or you can tell me where you went last night? Have you found the secret way to the Duke''s bedroom? "


    "No, the maidservant didn''t." She said powerlessly.


    "Or are you going to find a full moon night, use this bag of powder, and then climb the bed smoothly?"


    "No, it''s not what you think."


    "So what? As I said, I hate people around me for hiding, cheating and using me. If you want to get close to Guang''an Hou and intend to become his woman, love him or hurt him, I won''t ask. But if you want to use me to achieve your goal, you have to ask me these two pets. Do you agree? " Xiaobai vomited her tongue and swam slowly. The big scorpion, Zhuo Xi kept his breath and was slowly crawling over the ground.


    Shu Yue shouted in horror, "Miss, miss, I said, I said."


    She retreated and began to shed tears. "I''m all for the young master. I grew up with the young master. Everything about him is everything to me. I just want to find a chance to coax the young master to take this package of medicine powder. He, he has always refused to take me. " There was a slight blush on her face.


    "Do you think I''m a three-year-old?" With such a lame excuse, the slaves in this slavery society are only moving objects in the eyes of the nobility. Which noble man doesn''t eat the meat delivered to the door? Besides, Shu Yue is somewhat beautiful.


    "Miss, it''s true. I served the young master since childhood and have always loved him. But he has refused to accept me. I, I just hope to be with him. Even if I''m a housemaid, I''d like to. "


    "Xiaobai, your sister Shuyue doesn''t want to tell the truth. Go and teach her how to tell the truth." Xiaobai moves forward again.


    "Miss, no! What the maidservant said is true. " She burst into tears. "Last night, last night, the maid found a gap to see the young master, but she couldn''t find the powder before she left. She thought it would fail again. Unexpectedly, the young master drank some wine last night. He was very happy. As soon as he was happy, he asked for a slave. If you don''t believe me, I''ll show you the evidence. "


    She stood up and said in fear, "Miss, can you, can you keep them away from me first?"


    Zhuo Xi stopped drinking Xiaobai. The little Scorpion was already dizzy. Now he lay on the ground and didn''t move.


    Shu Yue slowly undressed and undressed. Zhuo Xi sure enough saw that she was full of kissing marks of various shapes from her neck to her thighs. At first glance, it was the result of having fun all night.


    "It was the first time last night, and I don''t know the young master..." Shu Yue shyly covered the key parts with her clothes and didn''t dare to see Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "well, put on your clothes. I''ll trust you for the time being. Don''t hide anything from me in the future. "


    "Yes, miss. I dare not. "


    "You can have a good rest in the house today. You will return to Beijing with the marquis in two days. If you are comfortable, tidy up your luggage. I must remember to take that medicine pillow with me. I can''t sleep without it. "


    "Yes, miss."


    In the next two days, she asked Xiaobai to find several poisonous plants and make several bottles of close prevention drugs with the venom secreted by the scorpion. Shu Yue is comfortable in her house. When she sees Xiaobai, she is afraid to enter her house when she is not in.


    On the third day, the whole villa was informed to start on time at noon, and everyone should be ready. Near the departure, Zhuo Xi found Xiaobai missing.


    She called Xiaobai in the room. During the final packing, Shu Yue said unintentionally, "it seems that the maid just saw it go behind the window."


    Back mountain again?


    She thought that she was about to go to the back mountain to find some special herbs, so she went to the back mountain to find a circle. Sure enough, I found Xiaobai in a corner with a bulging stomach. It was obvious that she had just finished eating.


    "You greedy snake, the time is coming. Let''s go." She called Xiaobai, but found that Xiaobai swayed his tail and swam straight in the other direction.


    "Hey, Xiaobai, we''re going to be late. Come back quickly."


    Zhuoxi stared anxiously at its little tail and followed it.


    Xiaobai led her for a long time to a swamp. She watched Xiaobai wriggle and gradually spit out a vole that had just been swallowed. Xiaobai piled the voles on the wetland, then crawled aside and waited quietly. She sighed in her heart. She didn''t know which species of snake it was or what it had experienced before. It was almost as intelligent as a demon. Look at this situation, Xiaobai has something important to do. She had to wait with her.


    After a while, the wetland gradually wriggled. A pair of red tentacles appeared in the mud next to the vole. It turned out to be a huge centipede.


    Looking at the red giant foot bug, Zhuo Xi had goose bumps. She looked at Xiaobai''s white and tender skin and thin body, and couldn''t help but pinch a cold sweat for it. But what did Xiaobai look at her at this time? She can''t catch a centipede with bare hands. The centipede is extremely poisonous.


    I didn''t let you go barehanded. Aren''t you armed?


    She almost immediately understood Xiaobai''s eyes in the next moment. She didn''t know how to have such telepathy with this cold-blooded animal. She immediately pulled out the bronze sword that had been pinned to her waist. It felt too heavy. She weighed it and shot it out with a Shua. The centipede realized that it was late when the danger came. The sword accurately shot into the Centipede''s body and nailed it to the swamp.


    Xiaobai cocked up her tail and pointed upward. Is that praising her? Ha ha, she smiled happily. But he immediately stopped and asked, "Xiaobai, Xiaobai, it''s going to fall."


    The bronze sword was too heavy. It was slowly sinking with the body of the centipede.


    Xiaobai jumped over and bit the Centipede''s tail, but although the copper sword is small, it is still too heavy for a small snake to stop it from sinking with the centipede.


    Zhuo Xi saw this, grabbed the cane on a big tree near the swamp, swung himself over and picked up the green sword. The centipede was picked up with the small snake on its tail. When she was proud, the cane on her hand suddenly broke. She was shocked and threw her sword and Xiaobai onto the rock. She saw that she was about to rush into the swamp.


    A slanting arm came and took her and flew to the bamboo forest.


    She looked up and saw that it was Jing Yuan. It turns out that his lightness skills are so good, and his martial arts are probably not weak. Wheelchairs are used to hide people''s eyes and ears!


    She saluted, "thank you for saving your life."


    "Didn''t you give a military order to leave at noon? Why are you here alone? " Jing Yuan asked with a little anger and a little fear. If he hadn''t arrived in time, if she fell into the swamp... If a big centipede could be led out of the swamp, there would be a nest of big centipedes. He thought for a moment, and suddenly he felt the cold rising.


    "Since the military order is like a mountain, how can the Marquis be here?"


    "It''s not because of you..." Jian Yi came out from the side and thought of the situation that they had just stopped the Marquis from looking for her, so he didn''t fight at all.


    Jing Yuan waved and stopped him. With a sweep of his cold eyes, when he turned to Zhuo Xi, the trace of unhappiness disappeared, "can you find Xiaobai?"


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyes and found Xiaobai. She quickly let it get into her sleeve pocket, tore off her skirt, wrapped the centipede and carried it by hand.


    Jian Yi said anxiously, "Marquis, let''s go. It''s too late."


    "What''s too late?" Zhuo Xi asked strangely.


    "They..."


    "Jianyi!" Jing Yuan drank, his cold lips slightly pursed, his eyes looked at him sharply, and his cold face exuded an indisputable look. Jian Yi could not help shivering. He stood aside and dared not speak again.


    Zhuo Xi said, "since the situation is urgent and my foot is slow, you''d better go first."


    Jing Yuan looked at her and suddenly came forward and threw the centipede she was carrying to Jian Yi. "Let''s go together. Hold on! " She felt her waist tight and the whole person flew into the sky. Is this the legendary lightness skill? She quickly hugged his waist and joked that if he fell, he would be seriously disabled if he didn''t die.


    Jing Yuan took her up and down to the mountain exit, and Jianyi followed him. Suddenly I heard a few swish, and the arrow rain was shooting at them. Zhuo Xi saw that it was a tragedy. Most modern martial arts are close combat. This long-range shooting can only dodge and look for shelter. Jingyuan''s side suddenly appeared several dark shadows, Keng Keng shot down arrows, and the rain protected them and hid in a cave.


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was the entrance of the mine. Her intuition was that it was a trap.


    Zhuo Xi looked at a gap and said to Jing Yuan, "you''re a burden holding me. Find a gap and put me down. You can show your skills."


    Jing Yuan hid her behind a huge stone.


    Sure enough, a group of officers and soldiers chased them into the mine. The dark guards in black fought and retreated with them. When they reached an open space, there were more and more officers and soldiers around. Jing Yuan and his party had been surrounded by them.


    Suddenly I heard a shout, "stop! Stop it! "


    A man in Royal jade robe stepped out, "sixth uncle, it''s you!"


    "Birch, it''s you." Jing Yuan also laughed. He was obviously laughing, but the smile didn''t reach the bottom of his eyes. He swept around coldly. The soldiers around him dared not move under his authority.


    Jing Hua said sadly, "uncle Liu, I received a message that a thief opened a mine in the dragon vein of the imperial mausoleum. Unexpectedly, it was uncle Liu. What are you mining Copper for? If you lose money and destroy the dragon vein where the king''s mausoleum is located. Uncle Liu, what do you think of you? " Copper can cast money and weapons, and destroy the dragon vein. Together, these piles are all crimes of conspiracy.


    "Want to add a crime." Zhuo Xi muttered, but she looked at her bitterly. It turned out that what he said was too late was the pursuit of these officers and soldiers? If they set out on time, they would not encounter the encirclement and suppression of the government, would they? Jingyuan really came to this mountain to find her?


    Nearby, a group of officers and soldiers are escorting a group of slaves. The children who went to Meng were also among them. They tied their hands in a string and staggered.


    Jing Yuan said, "Hua Er, believe it or not, I will tell you that a few months ago, I mined here in accordance with the king''s Secret edict. I record all the mining conditions every month. I will report them to the king at the end of the month. I will never say anything about private mining. "


    So the man in black that night was Jingyuan? Zhuo Xi intuitively knew him at that time. If he didn''t know her, didn''t he ask her who she was in the first sentence?


    "Where is the secret edict?"


    "It was the eunuch of the five rivers around the king who came to pass the secret edict."


    "Then there is no evidence?"


    "The overseers in the mine are all the Imperial troops in the king''s city, and the smelting craftsmen are all from the inner house. How can the king know what he has done?"


    "These people need to be taken back to Beijing for interrogation before they can be used as evidence."


    "The mining account books are secretly submitted to the cabinet on the 28th of each month and reported to the king, which can also be verified."


    "Only the king knows this account."


    A strong man led by the imperial army stepped forward with a knife and said, "three princes, since you have been ordered to capture the Marquis of Guang''an, what evidence do you need! If you catch it directly, there will be evidence. "


    "Zuo Heng, don''t talk nonsense. Brother Wang always pays attention to conclusive evidence. Otherwise, how can you block the long public in this world?" Jing Hua scolded the Imperial Army called Zuo Heng. Seeing that he retreated bitterly, he turned to Jing Yuan and said, "uncle Liu, please follow Hua''er to see the king. The truth will be known. Hua''er believes that this must be a misunderstanding. How are you? "


    Brother Wang¡° Birch, can you tell me whose order you are serving? "


    Jing Hua was silent for a moment. "Uncle Liu, no matter who asked me to come, you should follow me into the palace to meet the king. The truth is naturally clear."


    Jing Yuan thought for a moment and sighed, "well, I will follow you into the palace to meet the king."


    Jian Yi protected him, "Hou Ye! No! "


    "Birch offended. Somebody! "


    Jing Yuan took a step forward, stretched out his hand and was ready to catch him¡° I can bet. Let the others go. When I see brother Wang, I will tell him clearly. "


    Jianrong and several other dark guards also knelt down, "Lord Hou, please think twice."


    "Needless to say, if you want your minister to die, your minister will have to die. Even if I die, I won''t be a disorderly subject and thief! "


    Yuzhong, Yuzhong, Zhuo Xi sighed. She pulled Xiaobai out and asked, "Xiaobai, do you want me to save this immediate boss? Saving him may expose myself, and I can''t beat those officers and soldiers; If I don''t save him, will I be involved if he is copied and killed? "


    Xiaobai thought on his side for a while, then lowered his head to sleep.


    "Nod? That''s saving him? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the slave who was escorted by the officers and soldiers, and thought of Jian Yi''s eyes and made up her mind. Hiding behind the boulder, he took out a handful of hay from his arms and tried his best to hit the flint. The hay burned out thick smoke and blew down the wind to the middle of the open space.


    Jing Yuan is stretching out his hands to let the left cross tie his hands. Jian Yi jumps in a hurry. Zuo Heng said slowly, "don''t worry, it''s your turn soon."


    Then he looked up and saw those thin slaves fall first. He smelled the air and shouted, "no, the smoke is poisonous." The Imperial Army and the officers and soldiers he brought also fell one by one, and Jianyi also helped his forehead. The left cross held his breath and drew out a green sword, "who is it? Come out and shine. "


    Zhuo Xi went out, "it''s me. I''m really sorry." The backhand threw a small bottle to Ziran.


    "Who are you?" Jing Hua asked aloud.


    "I''m the female historian of your sixth uncle''s family. Although I am stupid, I know at a glance that this is an obvious conspiracy. You royal family members can kill each other, but you can''t implicate our most lovely people. " It was not easy for a beauty to save a hero. Zhuo Xi was so proud that she forgot to drop her schoolbag.


    Jianyi got the vial and was suspicious for a while. Seeing Jingyuan nodding, he tried to take one. He immediately looked excited and took one for Jingyuan and dark Wei.


    "The most lovely person?" Jing Hua pulled at the corners of her mouth, supported her body and asked slowly.


    "The industrious and kind-hearted people in the world are the most lovely people." She turned to Jianyi, "Jianyi, please give them the antidote."


    "They? They are slaves. "


    "What about slaves? Aren''t slaves human? Take them with you, or none of them will go! " Zhuo Xi said coldly.


    Not only Jing Hua zuoheng, but also Jing Yuan and Zi Ran were stunned.


    Jing Yuan said, "Miss Zhuo Xi, thank you for saving your life. But I can''t go. I''m going to meet brother Wang and explain the whole thing. "


    "Explain? You think that explains it? Do you think the king and the world will believe your explanation? You can die with all your heart, but don''t you think about your subordinates who have followed you for decades? If you still want the people you care about and the people who care about you to live, you must live! "


    Jingyuan''s whole body was shocked. Does he care about and care about his people? He knew that this might be a game and made some preparations. Unexpectedly, the king had expressed his suspicion naked, and there was no way out. Jian Yi whispered in his ear, "Hou ye, your mother imperial concubine..."


    Jing Yuan waved sadly. Jianyi immediately gave the antidote to the slaves and untied their rope.


    Jing Yuan said to Jing Hua, "Hua''er, go back and tell you that the mother''s coffin has stayed in Gelao for a long time. Now the father''s mausoleum has been completed. Ben Hou wants to meet the mother''s coffin first and come to be buried with his father, so that he can safely return to Beijing and apologize to the king."


    Jing Hua didn''t fall down with one breath. He looked around at the fallen officers and soldiers and said, "uncle Liu, don''t think you can escape with the 250 Bai Hui army at the foot of the mountain. Zhao Tingzheng came from Wulin pass with 3000 Huang Hui army. You''d better catch it!"


    The left cross was about to rush forward with the knife, but Jing Hua pretended to attack. Her foot was unstable. Her left arm hit the left cross''s Bronze knife. Zuo Heng exclaimed, hurriedly stopped the knife, held Jing Hua and shouted "three princes! Three princes! "

 Chapter 12

    Jing Hua covered her bloody arm and leaned on her left body.


    Zhuo Xi immediately called a group of dark guards and left with nearly 100 slaves.


    Jing Yuan looked at Jing Hua deeply and said silently, Hua''er, thank you.


    The slaves, led by Uncle Ma, expressed their gratitude to Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi quickly waved her hand and shouted, "don''t say so much, let''s get out of here." The people turned and followed in their footsteps. At this time, qumeng pushed aside the crowd and came to Zhuo Xi. He said happily, "sister, thank you. I knew we would meet again."


    "Xiao Meng, are you better?"


    "I''ve been all right since I took the herb given by my sister..."


    When they got out of the mine, a group of soldiers surrounded them head-on. They were led by Zi Ran and Yu Liang, commander of the 15th battalion of Baihui army, and Wu Xing, deputy battalion commander. Yu Liang took the lead in saying, "Lord Hou, you are incompetent in your humble position. You can''t find the entrance to the mine and can''t go in to rescue."


    "It doesn''t matter. This is a secret way. It''s normal that you can''t find the entrance. But now, I''m afraid it''s going to trouble you and me to become chaotic officials and thieves. Are you willing? "


    "My subordinates swear to be loyal to the Lord!" A crowd of officers and soldiers arched their hands.


    Zi Ran was responsible for the cover task in the army. Unfortunately, he didn''t wait until the Marquis came out in time. Now he seems to have torn his face and can''t return to Beijing as planned. So he came up and asked, "Lord, where are we going now?"


    "Zhao Ting came from Wulin pass. We can only go to Heyong pass in the West. After passing the Heyong pass, you can enter the Gelao family. "


    Zhuo Xi felt that these place names were very familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere.


    "Zi Ran, tell him to go down. The cavalry will go west with the Marquis, and the rest of the infantry will escort these slaves to Tonglin villa."


    "Yes." Ziran went to arrange it.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. The slaves were slow. Did he want to lead away the pursuers?


    After Wu Xing arranged all the matters, he came forward and saluted the Marquis and asked her, "six younger sisters, are you all right?"


    In front of everyone, how can brother and sister play less?


    She smiled vaguely, "brother, I''m fine, but I don''t know Shu Yue..."


    Wu Xing''s look didn''t change, "I''ve told Shu Yue."


    As soon as the voice fell, she saw Shu Yue coming with a burden on her back, "I''ve seen the young master and the sixth young lady."


    Shu Yue glanced shyly at Wu Xing and moved to him.


    "Just come. Let''s go."


    Zhuo Xi secretly admired Wu Xing''s acting skills and asked, "where are we going? What means of transportation are available? "


    Wu Xing asked, "can you ride a horse?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded.


    Wu Xing looked at Shu Yue again and said, "Shu Yue, mother Wu and mother Wang are on an ox cart over there. They are tired on the road. Go with them. Our troops are divided in two ways. "


    "No, I want to be with miss. I''m not afraid of hard work. I can take care of her on the way." I don''t know if it''s Zhuo Xi''s illusion. She feels that Shu Yue seems to have aggravated the word "care". She suddenly realized that she should be classified as a "servant" with mother Wu. She thought and said, "Shu Yue, why don''t we go and squeeze with mother Wu."


    Wu Xing thought about it and nodded.


    At this time, Zi Ran came over, "Miss Zhuo Xi, please come to the marquis."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. "I''m afraid it''s not appropriate?"


    Zi Ran thought of what she heard last night, looked vaguely at Zhuo Xi, approached her and whispered, "I was going to leave at noon. Jianyi came to report to the master that I saw the girl going back to the mountain. Our stop was invalid. Hou Ye insisted on going to find the girl. So, girl, you''d better go with us. "


    "Cough." Two coughs came from the carriage behind, and the cold suddenly dispersed.


    Zi Ran shut up and motioned her up with her eyes.


    She was silent and thought that he didn''t leave in time because he was looking for her. Jing Hua took someone to cut him off at the scene. She should go to express her gratitude. So she went to the carriage.


    "Miss, i..." Shu Yue looked at her pitifully with her baggage.


    "You follow me." Wu Xing has stepped on a horse and stretched out his hand to her. Shu Yue grabbed his hand with joy.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and slowly stepped on the carriage. In front of the carriage was Yi holding the reins. He looked at her and snorted coldly¡° Drive! " With a loud cry, the two horses in front of him immediately ran away. Zhuoxi almost fell into the carriage.


    Zhuo Xi fell into the carriage and saw Jing Yuan leaning on the cushion, with an exquisite pot on a small tea table in the middle. She sucked her nose. It was actually Jasmine bamboo tea she concocted on the first day. She lifted up her skirt and sat down on the other side. She picked up a small pot and added new tea to him and a cup of tea to herself. She looked at the tea bowl in her hand and said to herself, "if only there were a white jade eight treasure cup."


    "What is the white jade eight treasures cup?"


    "It''s a jade carved, deeper cup. When this tea is injected, there will be a sense of clarity. The fragrance seems to seep from the bottom of the cup. It''s not interesting." She compared the approximate height.


    "Oh, where can I find this cup?" The point is, this cup sounds very high. Why have I never heard of it as a loser under one person and above ten thousand people?


    "My luxury flagship store."


    "What are you talking about?" Jing Yuan didn''t understand.


    Physical stores, physical stores, she thinks that the development of luxury goods in this world is definitely a profiteering industry. When can she be let go?


    Thinking of this, she straightened up. She hasn''t won the negotiation with him for a long time. Today, she can drink tea and chat. Isn''t this a god given opportunity?


    So she started the first topic, "was that Jing Hua just now? Prince? "


    "Presumptuous, can you call the names of the three princes directly?" Jing Yuan snorted coldly. From the beginning, she found that she seemed to have no class consciousness. It was awkward to salute him.


    "Oh, it''s the third prince?" She shrugged disapprovingly and then asked, "you should have known he would come?" Therefore, if you start today at noon as planned, it is just staggered with Jing Hua, but the military order is like a mountain. How can you change it?


    "He was supposed to arrive yesterday. He has delayed for a day on the grounds of physical discomfort." Jing Yuan said.


    So Jing Hua said in front of the crowd that Jing Yuan was only mining Copper "for money", which was the lightest crime. After they retreated, he reminded him that a large army came from the north. The king''s previous edict clearly told him to leave in three days. Before three days, he sent Jing Hua with a secret edict. Isn''t this a clear frame up?


    "Then why did you go to the mountains again?" Since Jing Hua gave him time to escape, he should evacuate in time.


    "To find you." Jing Yuan said directly to the local people.


    She was surprised. It doesn''t seem like his style¡° Go and find me? " She stuttered a little. It''s one thing to listen to others and another to hear him admit it.


    "Why?"


    "Ben Hou is still waiting for your antidote. What about the poison on Ben Hou without you?" Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and explained.


    She suddenly remembered her purpose of going to the back mountain. She touched her sleeve pocket, "ah, my little white! Where has it gone? "


    She got up and got out of the car. "Stop, stop, I''m going to find it."


    Jing Yuan grabbed her. She stumbled and fell on him.


    Her eyes were opposite to his. She felt that his black eyes were like a deep pool that was going to suck her in and drown. She was stunned and didn''t blink.


    Suddenly, the carriage seemed to hit a small stone and bumped. She immediately woke up and opened her eyes: "do you use ecstasy on me?" In a rage, all the honorific words and titles of the princes'' slaves and maidservants were forgotten.


    Jing Yuan smiled bitterly and gushed out a thin mouthful of blood. "Miss Zhuo Xi is smart, but you don''t have to be so frank?"


    "I think that only when people are more frank can they make true friends." Is it poisoned? Did you eat it back? You deserve it. She slowly found the towel and slowly wiped the corners of her mouth for him.


    "True friend?" Jing Yuan leaned back and smiled indifferently, "in this world, even flesh and blood can be used or even abandoned, not to mention friends."


    "It''s just that you don''t meet someone you really care about. Lord Hou, I have something important to do. I''ll leave first. " She has to find Xiaobai.


    "That''s what''s important to you, isn''t it?" He motioned.


    She looked along his line of sight. Xiaobai was slowly coming out from under the seat.


    She jumped over happily, "Xiaobai, why are you here? Let me find it. "


    "You care about it."


    "Yes, it''s my true friend."


    "How can a snake become a man''s true friend?"


    "Whether a friend is true or not depends on whether he treats you really or not."


    "What about Shu Yue? Is it true that she treats your heart? "


    "Shu Yue?" Zhuo Xi thought about the situation before, "it''s a little suspicious."


    "She is your personal servant girl. If you can''t trust her, how can you be a true friend?"


    She is dumb. Can she say that Shu Yue is not her servant girl?


    He asked again, "so where on earth did she go that night?"


    "She..." Zhuo Xi knew what day he was talking about. As expected, mother Wu had reported to him. She felt her cheeks a little hot. She didn''t know whether she thought of Shu Yue and Wu Xing or he and her in the barrel that day.


    "Huh?" Jing Yuan is obviously still waiting for her to go on.


    "She said she was with my big brother." She gritted her teeth and said it.


    "Wu Xing?"


    "Yes." She put down Xiaobai, breathed a sigh, opened the curtain and asked Shu Yue to hand over her burden. She found the pill just made with red fruit last night and sent it to his mouth. "Xiaobai''s hard work can alleviate the toxin on you. Dare you eat it?"


    He opened his mouth and bit her hand. She couldn''t help shrinking. He grabbed her hand with his hand and licked the tip of his tongue on her fingertips.


    A burst of numbness came, and she withdrew her arm in disgust. Can''t you seduce instead?


    "Why, don''t let the cat try it this time?"


    He picked up the tea and was not exposed at all. "I believe Xiaobai."


    The implication is that you don''t believe her?


    "Ha ha."


    When he took the traditional Chinese medicine pill, she immediately said, "Xiaobai can''t tell you how to take this medicine."


    Jing Yuan was stunned. Did he get caught again?


    She slowly picked up the tea and took a sip. "This pill can only be taken with boiled water, not tea."


    "You..." he was dumb, but on a whim, he wanted to explore her reality with ecstasy, or determine what kind of mentality he used to face her. Is it necessary to retaliate against him like this?


    She looked at his gradually changed face and said, "my style is always revenge. But you don''t have to worry. Using tea will only make you have a burst of abdominal pain and diarrhea. "


    His face was blue with iron. One hand reached over and wanted to catch her neck. She leaned over. Unexpectedly, his other hand was like a torch and quickly LIT an unknown acupoint. She couldn''t move in an instant.


    Shit£¡ She hates the two magic weapons of ancient Kung Fu, one is lightness skill, the other is acupoint pointing! Because of these two things, she was completely confused and didn''t know where to start. Although Jing Yuan seems to have unfathomable martial arts and she can''t win in force, she can still make up for it by powder weapons, but once this acupoint technique is used, she has no power to fight back.


    She gritted her teeth and said word by word, "don''t point my acupoints!"


    With a sneer, he ordered "find a quiet place to park!" Just wait!


    "Xiaobai, Xiaobai, help!"


    Xiaobai pokes his head out and looks at Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan sweeps his eyes and Xiaobai immediately retracts his head.


    Black belly! extreme pettiness of character! No manners! Zhuo Xi looked at him with hatred. But he lifted the curtain and went down.


    In this way, she had a strange posture for a long time before she saw Jing Yuan open the curtain and come in. He couldn''t help laughing, but he couldn''t help laughing. She gritted her teeth again and said, "all right? I''m out of breath. Don''t you unlock my acupoints? "


    Jing Yuan stretched out her hand and patted her. She immediately became angry and turned her sore neck.


    He looked at her. "Are you sure it was just once? If only it were once. Otherwise, if Ben Hou has diarrhea several times, you will accompany Ben Hou several times. "


    She immediately raised her hands and surrendered, "Lord, I''m wrong. This is a perfect tonic pill. After eating it, it not only eliminates the just small pain and diarrhea, but also has absolutely no side effects. This pill is made of honey and can be chewed and taken. "


    Jing Yuan looked at her, took the pill, put it into his mouth, chewed it carefully and swallowed it slowly.


    She took a deep breath and began the formal negotiation. "Lord, we are now in truce. If people have been tempted and suspicious and have no sense of trust, isn''t it too tired? Now I hope I can have a frank talk with you so that we can reach some consensus in future. How? "


    Jing Yuan adjusted his posture and swallowed the pill in his mouth. "I think I have shown my enough trust in you." Your life is in your hands. Don''t you trust me enough?


    "Do you really trust me?"


    "Isn''t that what you want?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "as I said in the mine that day, I have no loyal people, and I don''t want to be loyal in the future. Although I am currently working for you and getting paid, I am still independent in personality. So this is the premise that you can trust me. I will never betray you or betray you for anyone''s interests. "


    "In this world, it is not necessarily for interests to betray or betray a person."


    "This is natural, so I can''t guarantee whether I can retain such independence when my life or the lives of people I care about are threatened. So the first thing we need to reach an agreement is that I only work within my scope of work. I won''t inquire about what I shouldn''t know. Please don''t let me know. Naturally, I won''t say what I don''t know. As for the copper mine, it seems that the king will call the world, so there is no secret. "


    "First? It seems that you have something else to say. Go on. "


    "Secondly, when the Marquis hired me, he hired me as an appropriate waiter. The main purpose is to understand the strange poison and strange disease on you. I''m still that request. Once the strange poison on you is cleared, and I have no practical value, I hope the Marquis can return my wealth documents to me and set me free."

 Chapter 13

    "Freedom? It''s not easy to have real freedom in life. " Jing Yuan thought of that day again. She was elated when she said loudly, "without the order of her parents and the pressure of kingship". What kind of woman is this?


    "This is natural, so first of all, I just want to get the most basic personal freedom."


    "What would you like to do if you were free?" Somehow, he felt uncomfortable at the thought that she was free and could disappear at any time.


    "I want to start my luxury business. Of course, if only you could give me a severance payment. "


    Jing Yuan didn''t understand, "luxury goods? Severance pay? "


    Of course, during the term of the contract, you have to pay me a salary commensurate with the position, which is a monthly example. In return, I will work hard and actively. Everything is in your interests. You can make any request. I promise that there will be no deception, no design, no temptation, and no betrayal. "


    "Do you know what it might be like to follow me and face the front?" Jing Yuan said in a low voice. He doesn''t know what to face. He disobeys orders and mines privately. If the king calls on the world, he will become a disorderly subject and thief, and everyone will be punished.


    "Whatever it is, I only go according to my heart. You saved me. I know how to repay you. I don''t care whether you are a rogue minister or a prince or a general in the future. I will follow you with all my strength during the contract period. But the premise is that you just believe me and don''t give up on me. I will give you an account of my background today, but after today, I will not ask the source or origin. " She still knows the basic professional ethics. If he wants to believe her, how can he believe it without a background?


    "I promise you, as long as I believe you and don''t give up on you, I won''t ask the source or origin after today." Jingyuan didn''t know why, so she really believed her.


    "Then the term of the contract is..."


    "One year, one year." Jing Yuan was silent for a long time and gave a time limit.


    "Deal!"


    Bingo£¡ After a preliminary agreement was reached, she no longer had to be tempted or be tempted.


    "Now that the agreement has been reached, tell me first that you are really miss Wu''s sixth house?"


    "I''m not." She told him frankly. It is estimated that he has almost checked. She hasn''t had time to collude with Wu Xing for more information. It takes minutes to expose it¡° I was actually an orphan. I was sold into the palace as a slave when I was young. This time, I was to be buried with him, but by chance, I survived. Wu Xing was not related to me by blood. On that day, he just wanted me to stay in the camp because he was afraid of me running away. He lied that he was his sister. He didn''t expect so many things to happen later. "


    "It seems that he took a lot of effort to prepare this wealth document." Jing Yuan was not surprised, "your medical skills..."


    She stuck out her tongue. "In fact, I just learned pharmacology from an old Eunuch in the palace since I was a child. I don''t know what to feel the pulse." You can''t be honest. But her origin is so strange that I can''t tell her everything. But she promised to be frank except about her life experience.


    "Then detoxify..." Jing Yuan suddenly had a sense of risk.


    "I have Xiaobai. It says your poison can be solved, but it needs a certain time."


    "How does it understand you?"


    "In fact, I don''t know. I grew up with it since I was a child. It knows me very well and saved my life."


    Finished, there was really no secret at all. Zhuo Xi felt as if she had stripped off her clothes and stood in front of him, completely naked.


    She suddenly remembered one thing, "but Lord, I have a little request."


    "What''s up?"


    "In the future, never, never point my acupoints!" Point or something, is it great? Don''t you know how hard it is for those who are ordered?


    Jingyuan''s cold face finally cracked, "OK, I promise you!"


    "Yeah!" She compared a pair of scissors and reached an agreement. She finally felt that the road ahead was bright. She happily lay down on the side by the window and finally got a good sleep. In this world, is it easy to find someone you trust with all your heart? When she put her mind down, she really fell asleep.


    Jing Yuan also lay down and picked up a wisp of her black hair. "Can you really ask for anything?"


    He smiled, closed his eyes, and suddenly felt that it was good to trust someone with all his heart. Since his childhood, he has been living in intrigue, constantly experiencing temptation and being tempted, assassination and being assassinated, and his heart has been very tired. Once upon a time, he also wanted to stay away from these things and the center of power, but he was different. His existence was destined to be a stumbling block for a superior. Once he let go, he might die without a place to bury. Just try it once. By the way, he was happy with all his heart; Wrong, even if it''s a sea of fire? This belief is completely different from the trust between Zi Ran and Jian Yi. It is not the trust of the superior to the subordinate, nor the loyalty of the subordinate to the superior, but the mutual trust, dependence and dependence among friends. Yes, just rely on! He suddenly felt so tired that he needed someone to rely on. Vaguely thinking, he gradually fell asleep.


    Outside the carriage, Jian Yi asked Zi Ran quietly, "you mean, they have long..."


    Zi Ran touched his nose and nodded slightly.


    "The sixth young lady of Wu house seems to have great skills!" Jian Yi said angrily, "no wonder the Marquis wants to pursue her in vain.".


    "But at least it proves that the Marquis is normal." When a voice came in, it was immediately recognized by the bright and dark guards around.


    That''s Jianrong''s voice. "Anyway, at least you can be sure that Miss Wu has no bad heart for the Marquis, otherwise she wouldn''t have saved me just now."


    Once the tone of public opinion was set, Zhuo Xi''s success in climbing the bed and holding her thighs immediately spread quietly to the accompanying soldiers, and Wu Xing was no exception.


    Zhuo Xi, who was in the center of the storm, knew nothing about it. When she woke up, she found that her sleep was a little ugly, especially under the eyes of her immediate boss. It seemed that she had sucked saliva twice in her sleep. She remembered Yi''s face when she came in in the morning, and instantly remembered her identity. It seemed that it was a little out of order to share the carriage space with the Marquis, so she thought she consciously got up and prepared to serve outside. She opened the curtain and found that the co pilot''s seat outside was occupied by the quilt. She was tangled for a moment. There was no place to sit outside. Did she really want to ride a horse? After riding for a day, not to mention the suffering of the buttocks, thighs and even the whole body skeleton, even this white and tender little face can''t stand the high sun and scorching sun. I have to take off a layer of skin.


    Between her tangles, the two people in the front and front passenger seats looked at her together. She thought Jian Yi would still look angry. Unexpectedly, he changed his disdainful eyes. She was stunned. What does that mean?


    But Zi Ran said flatteringly, "Miss Zhuo Xi, why did you come out? It''s windy and sunny outside. You''ve been damaged by the sun. Please come inside. There are our brothers outside. "


    She shivered and swept her eyes. She found that the soldiers in front also turned around and sent friendly and ambiguous eyes.


    What is this?


    Shu Yue followed her all the time. Seeing this, she hurried down from Wu Xing''s horse, trotted over and asked, "Miss, do you want to have a rest?"


    Zhuo Xi hasn''t had time to answer. Zi Ran immediately understood, punched Jian Yi and replied, "yes, yes, the brothers have been gone for so long. It''s time to have a rest."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t react at all, and the mighty team immediately stepped aside to rest. She jumped down, went to the shade and stretched herself. Shu Yue handed her a pot of water. She took it over and looked around while drinking. She always felt that the people''s eyes looked at her strangely. She asked Shu Yue, "what happened? Why are they all looking at me? "


    "No, it''s nothing, miss." Shu Yue lowered her head.


    "The more nothing, there must be something." She looked up and saw Wu Xing skating not far away. She was about to ask them to borrow a horse, so she shouted "big brother."


    Wu Xing came over and his face was a little bad. He looked at Shu Yue, and Shu Yue''s head was getting lower and lower. He felt Shu Yue acting suspiciously all the way.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and asked, "brother, do you have any extra horses?"


    "There are not enough horses. Many soldiers also walk. Why?"


    "I had an important discussion with the Marquis before. Now it''s over. I think if I ride with the Marquis all the way, I''m afraid the impact is not very good. Why don''t I ride a horse? "


    What''s important? finished?


    "Since it is an important matter, how can we really finish it? There are no horses. You''d better stay in the carriage. " Wu Xing said stiffly.


    "Brother, how can I break the rules?"


    "Rules, do you know the rules? Do you know how important the innocence of your daughter''s family is? " He suddenly said angrily.


    "What?" What''s the matter? Zhuo Xi is a little unclear, so look at Shu Yue. Should she know?


    Shu Yue raised her head. "Young master, I don''t believe miss will do such a thing." She turned to Zhuo and said, "Miss, is what they said true?"


    "What did they say? What did they say? " Zhuo Xi has a bad feeling.


    "They, they said..." Shu Yue was about to stop talking.


    "They said you were sleeping!" Wu Xing just said it.


    what!!! The water in Zhuo Xi''s mouth spewed out. If she was hit by five thunders, what vicious rumor is this? How did it get out?


    Ignoring the explanation, she stuffed the kettle into Shu Yue''s arms and hurried to the direction of the carriage.


    She opened the curtain and asked Jing Yuan, "Hou ye, they, why..."


    "What happened to them?"


    She looked at the eyes on both sides without concealment. The two words could not be said in public, so she had to raise her feet and enter the carriage, "why did they spread rumors about me, that?"


    "Which one did you?"


    Zhuo Xi broke for a long time and bit her silver teeth, "wait for bed! Why did they rumor that I was sleeping? Don''t you know I''ll get married in the future? "


    Marry? Who else will she marry?


    "Sleeping? I don''t know. " He said innocently.


    "Why don''t you know if I have a bed?! Of course I didn''t! " Zhuo''erxi looked around in hatred, hoping to find some poisonous powder to make all those who spread rumors suffer.


    "I know you certainly don''t, but I don''t know how the rumor spread. Why don''t I explain to them? "


    "Can such a thing be explained? Is the explanation useful? " Zhuo Xi has the heart to kill.


    "So what? I really don''t know how they spread it like this. "


    "Ah!" She screamed wildly. Unexpectedly, this scream made people outside sit down and confirm the rumors.


    Jing Yuan said slowly, "but I think it''s a good idea."


    "What idea?" Zhuo Xi didn''t react, but she felt as if Jing Yuan''s face was red to her ears. She was suspicious that she was wrong. Suddenly Jing Yuan looked up, pulled her over and pressed her down.


    "Hey, you really..." before Zhuo Xi finished, he heard an arrow shoot through the window lattice. As soon as she was cold, the pursuers arrived?


    Immediately outside, there was a noise, the footsteps and fighting of soldiers, the neighing of horses, the shouting of commands from the commander, as if there were women''s screams.


    But soon their carriage ran wildly, and Jianyi reported outside, "Lord and girl, sit down. There are thieves coming, and we''ll fight and go. Now the soldiers are divided into two routes, and Yu Liang and Wu Xing lead the soldiers respectively."


    Zhuo Xi heard Jing Yuan "um" on her, but there was no sign of getting up.


    She pushed him. "Get up, don''t you know how much you weigh? I can''t breathe. "


    Jing Yuan still said "um" and didn''t move.


    Zhuo Xi thought something was wrong with him. "Are you hurt?"


    "Yes."


    She couldn''t see his situation and didn''t dare to push him rashly. For fear of touching the wound, she had to shout, "Zi Ran, come in quickly. The Marquis seems to be hurt."


    Zi Ran immediately came in and shouted nervously, "Hou Ye! What''s the matter with you? " He slowly picked up Jing Yuan, Zhuo Xi also slowly sat up and looked at him. There was an arrow on his back, and the blood slowly exuded was black. She knew that just now the arrow was facing her position, and Jing Yuan saved her.


    "Miss Zhuo Xi, come on, help the marquis."


    She immediately took out the poison pill made of red fruit and asked him to take it. Whether it''s useful or not, try it first. Finally, he tore his underwear on the right side of his back, and then put it on his back. The arrow is also made of bronze, which is very rough. When the arrow shot into the carriage, it had reduced its strength. Although the arrow disappeared into the back, it should not pierce the internal organs. Simple surgery she was trained to remove ammunition for her companions in time. But there are neither anesthetics nor surgical kits here. How to do surgery?


    She had to close the bloody clothes, tear two pieces of cloth from herself and press it around the arrow to stop bleeding¡° Find a place to settle down and prepare relevant materials before taking out the arrow. "


    Zi Ran pondered for a moment, "this place is more than 200 miles away from Heyong pass. At present, we can only go to Tonglin villa first. That is the other courtyard of the Marquis, which is nearby."


    "How secure?"


    "This other courtyard was secretly bought by the Marquis for temporary shelter. It is located in a remote place. Few people know it. It is near the green mountain."


    "Let''s go quickly. The longer it takes, the more trouble it will be."


    "Yes, miss, please tell me what materials you need? My subordinates sent people to prepare in advance. "


    "Alcohol, no, spirits, sharp knife blades, gauze, that is, some clean white cloth, as well as needles and thread. By the way, do you have hemp boiling powder? "


    "What is hemp boiling powder?"


    It seems that there is no, so I have to cook by myself¡° To go to the drugstore, first catch 3 yuan for sheep wandering, 1 yuan for jasmine root, 1 liang for angelica, 3 points for Acorus calamus, and fry three bowls of water into one bowl of water. "


    Zi Ran should have gone.


    While driving the car, Jianyi nervously asked Zhuo Xi, "Miss Zhuo Xi, how is Hou Ye injured?"


    "... it seems that he lost a little more blood and was poisoned." Zhuoxi paused and deliberately made it more serious. Let you spread rumors. Are you all blind? Didn''t you see me talking to the Marquis? Where is there any sign of sleeping? Hurry, hurry you!


    Sure enough, Yi once heard this and whipped the horse several times. The sweat on his forehead was like raindrops.


    Jing Yuan, who was lying prone, immediately recognized the little 99 in her heart and couldn''t help laughing. When she heard the laughter, she pressed his wound with more force, "still laughing? Not afraid of the pain? "


    "Hiss..." sure enough, the laughter turned into a gasp. Jing Yuan thought, forget it. Next time, I''d better warn them not to offend the little woman easily.


    She deliberately shouted again, "Hou ye? Marquis? You have to hold on! Don''t sleep! "


    Jing Yuan laughed so much that his chest was about to crack, and said cooperatively, "Ben Hou didn''t, it''s all right, don''t worry." I''m kidding. The wound is under her hand. Can''t you cooperate?


    As a result, the whip on the hand changed like a cramp, and the sweat on the forehead spread more happily like a waterfall.


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand with satisfaction, bent down and whispered in Jing Yuan''s ear, "don''t worry, marquis, it''s a small injury and no big harm."


    Jing Yuan felt her plump and soft body rubbing against her arm and sighed, "now I''m human flesh and you''re a knife and Zu. Do whatever you want."


    Zhuo Xi gave a thumbs up, "sure enough, he knows the practical person."

 Chapter 14

    The carriage and his party soon arrived at Tonglin villa. They didn''t stay much, so they moved Jing Yuan into the master bedroom where they kept the reception state all the time. Zhuo Xi found a room, cleaned herself up a little, changed a set of clean clothes, and followed Zi Ran to Jing Yuan''s bedroom. Without a medical coat, you can only change clean clothes first.


    Everything she said is ready. She instructed Zi Ran to peel off Jing Yuan''s coat, lit candles next to him and put on a basin of warm water. Then she said to Zi Ran and Jian Yi, "OK, leave the rest to me. You also go to wash and change a set of clean clothes and come in again to avoid cross infection."


    When is it time for them to wash? Zi Ran and Jian Yi looked at each other and asked uncertainly, "wash?"


    "Yes, you are all germs. If you don''t wash them, you will infect the Hou Ye''s wound, which will easily aggravate his condition." Although the germs and infections are a little incomprehensible, they can aggravate the Marquis''s condition, so they can''t. The son resolutely told the Marquis to retreat. Seeing the Marquis waving his hand, he whispered, "you listen to Xi''er." Xier? As soon as he heard the intimate address, he knew that his Marquis completely trusted her, so he pulled Jianyi out.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t notice the change in the name. She looked at the medicine juice aside. This is the initial hemp boiling powder, and she didn''t know if it could work. But she couldn''t care so much. She took a breath, added the liquor to the medicine juice, and fed it to Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan was a little dizzy at the beginning. He opened his eyes and asked, "what''s this?"


    "Hemp boiling powder may make you sleepy for a while and make your operation less painful. But I don''t know if it can work. If it can''t work, just bear it. "


    When she finished, she found that Jing Yuan had lost consciousness, which seemed to have some effect.


    She called Xiaobai out and let him smell the wound. Xiaobai went out with his tail wagging.


    Without delay, she immediately picked up the blade to disinfect it. As soon as she picked it up, she was startled by its weight, "Oh, what blade is this? It''s so heavy and so thick that you can kill a pig. "


    Zi Ran came in after washing quickly, and smelled the speech and replied, "girl Mingjian, this is the pig killing knife."


    She was taking a sip of wine to spray on the blade. When he said, "cough," she coughed heavily twice. The wine gushed out, but it also choked some of the liquor in the throat.


    Yi also came in at this time. Seeing that the Marquis was unconscious, he nervously wanted to pull out the knife, "what''s the matter with the Marquis? Girl, what did you do to the Marquis? " Zi Ran pressed him. "Jianyi, don''t be impulsive. The Marquis said everything. Listen to the girl."


    "Your master trusts me so much. Tut Tut, why don''t you trust me as a slave?" Zhuoxi slowly burned the blade on the fire.


    "Hum, if you are against the Marquis, I will not let you go." Jian Yi said with his neck stuck.


    "If I really wanted to do something, I would have done it. Don''t worry, I can''t beat you. " Zhuo Xi said coolly that she still remembered the feeling that he put the knife on her neck that night. If he didn''t revenge a non gentleman, she had come up with more than 15 kinds of poisonous powder to torture people. No time, no time. Now with the centipede, you can get twice the result with half the effort. You must find time to prepare these powders these days! She made up her mind.


    She cut the rotten meat next to the arrow with a knife, slowly took out the arrow, and asked unintentionally, "is this arrow made of copper? Isn''t it too heavy? Why not use steel? "


    "All weapons are made of copper. Why is it strange? What is steel? "


    It turns out that people in this era have not mastered iron making technology, which is a waste. No wonder they only choose a small amount of copper ore and abandon a large amount of iron ore when digging copper ore.


    She smiled and told Ziran to press the wound with a cloth. After the hemostasis was almost over, she sewed the wound with a needle and thread under the gaze of Ziran and Yi''s eyes. Fortunately, the arrow did not cause a big wound to the lungs. Otherwise, open the back and sew the internal organs under the gaze of four eyes. It is estimated that they will kill her if they are not scared to death.


    After dressing up, Zhuo Xi dictated a prescription for Jian Yi to catch. They were all heat clearing and detoxifying to prevent him from having a fever due to wound infection.


    Jianyi reluctantly wrote down the prescription and went out.


    Zhuo Xi let Zi Ran watch, went to the ear room to clean himself up, came in and said to Zi Ran, "from now on to Zi Shi, I''ll keep it. You come and change me after midnight. I''ll tell you what happens then. "


    Zi Ran bowed deeply to her, "girl, I''m tired today. Please go and have a rest first. Zi Ran will always guard the marquis."


    It seems that you still don''t trust her?


    Zhuo Xi said, "the first midnight is very important. He may have a fever. I''ll give him medicine as appropriate. Go and have a rest first. When Yi comes back, leave two women to cook soup and medicine. "


    Zi Ran thought for a while, said "thank you, girl" and went out.


    In the middle of the night, he really started to burn and talked nonsense. He called "mother imperial concubine" and "don''t kill me", waving his hands indiscriminately. Zhuo Xi grabbed his hand, he calmed down and murmured, "mother imperial concubine, don''t go." Inexplicably, she seemed to see his murderous childhood. The pain seemed to slowly spread from his heart to her palm, and she didn''t want to let go anymore.


    When Zi Ran came in, Zhuo Xi grabbed his hand and fell asleep by the bed. The bowl on one side was empty. After thinking about it, he withdrew again.


    In the morning, Zhuo Xi woke up and saw a pair of black eyes staring at her motionless. She said conditionally, "Hi, good morning." Then she immediately covered her mouth and nose. She didn''t brush her teeth when she got up in the morning. Don''t be so close, okay?


    Jing Yuan grabbed her hand, stared into her eyes and slowly asked, "you are not Miss Wu jialiu. Does that childhood runaway story have anything to do with you?"


    "It''s okay, it''s okay, of course it''s okay." She quickly clarified. Don''t ruin my reputation again, will you? The rumor of the waiter''s bedroom has not been broken. It reminds people of a childhood sweetheart. What has she become? Is she going to live?


    "Previously, the former king married the Marquis, and the woman has been mourning since because of sudden changes in her family. Under such circumstances, I''m afraid this marriage will come to naught. "


    I had an engagement. I didn''t get married because of an accident. Do you feel sorry now?


    Zhuo Xi blurted out, "what a pity."


    Jing Yuan looked at her and said, "Xi''er, if you don''t mind, you and I will get married first, but your name may not be able to reach the jade plate brand of Zongbo in neifu for the time being. If one day, I can reach a settlement with brother Wang, I will send someone to dissolve the engagement with the woman, and then report it to the ancestral temple to officially establish you as Princess yuan. How about? "


    Zhuo Xi was so frightened that her chin was about to fall off. What''s the situation? Wake up and be proposed? What rhythm is this?


    She pinched her thigh. It was painful. She didn''t dream? She measured the temperature on his forehead with the back of her hand, but there was no fever.


    She saved him, but she wouldn''t let him promise by example, would she? Early in the morning, don''t play like this. Isn''t it the one-year period just agreed? Why did you suddenly propose? Want her to provide services for free and indefinitely? Nice try.


    She took out her hands, immediately got up, jumped away and shouted, "Marquis, you''re awake!" Then whispered, "aren''t you awake? Think about it when you wake up, and I''ll think about it. "


    When she saw that Zi Ran was running in, she ran out quickly and told him, "Lord Hou just woke up and give him some light porridge."


    Jing Yuan looked at her running back and said in his heart, Xi''er, if the Marquis and brother Wang can''t reconcile completely, you will become the wife of a disorderly subject and thief. If you don''t agree, it''s my impulse.


    He didn''t know why he woke up early in the morning and felt like something he had been waiting for appeared. He wanted to hold her tightly in his hand. He knew that the softest place in his heart was slowly opening, and he didn''t want to close it again. But seeing her frightened and running away, why did she seem very angry?


    While Zhuo Xi was sleeping in the dark, Zi Ran knocked on her door outside. Shu Yue whispered to him, "Lord Ziran, Miss won''t come back until dawn. Please let her sleep a little more."


    "Lord Hou is hot again. Come and have a look, Miss Zhuo Xi."


    Zhuo Xi reluctantly got up and opened the door. "Is the Marquis really hot?"


    Didn''t we just reach an agreement with him, without cheating or suspicion? She''s not suspicious. What is she subconsciously afraid of?


    Zi Ran said anxiously, "girl, the Marquis is still well in front. After drinking porridge at noon, he said he wanted to rest. Now he''s hot."


    "I''ll come right after I wash." Her poor sleep seems to start the rhythm of insomnia again.


    Zhuo Xi dawdled into Jing Yuan''s house. She always suspected that she had heard wrong when she proposed in the morning. She doesn''t adapt to the rhythm of changing her face. Although the two have reached a consensus, it is only a work agreement, which does not involve personal feelings.


    When she approached Jing Yuan, he was sleeping with his eyes closed. She put her hand on his forehead as if it were hot or not. Without a thermometer, she could not determine whether Jing Yuan was still burning, so she had to get close to her and put her forehead against his forehead. Seems to have a fever. She said a word to herself. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Jing Yuan had opened her eyes and looked at her. She retreated in horror and said with a smile, "I, I just want to see if you''re hot."


    He said sarcastically, "why, I can''t get the pulse, so I can only judge it in this way?"


    "What if you can''t feel your pulse? I didn''t save your life? "


    "Have you forgotten who Ben Hou was hurt for?"


    "..." Zhuo Xi shrugged and said, "well, you won. Now you can tell me what you had for lunch? "


    Jing Yuan said coldly, "I drank porridge and medicine."


    "What''s your tone? Do you doubt me? "


    "Ben Hou''s life is in your hands. How dare you doubt you?" Jing Yuan closed his eyes and didn''t see her. He was inexplicably angry.


    She looked suspiciously at his face. It was a little bad, but she would be a little pale after losing too much blood last night. Sure enough, it''s good to be a leader. There''s no reason to lose your temper. Healing him depends on his face.


    She went out inexplicably, found Zi Ran and asked him to bring some porridge and medicine for lunch. She wanted to check it.


    Zi Ran brought the porridge and medicine in accordance with the words. She smelled and tasted it. She felt there was no problem, and asked, "is there anything abnormal except these?"


    Zi Ran thought for a while and replied, "No. But I don''t know why. When Hou Ye woke up early in the morning, he looked like a stranger. Maybe he was hurt and in a bad mood. "


    Are you in a bad mood? She felt her nose a little guilty.


    Forget it, I can''t find anything suspicious, and the fever is always a burst. Zhuo Xi didn''t care too much, just said to continue to observe closely¡° Oh, by the way, bring that prescription and I''ll make some adjustments. "


    Zi Ran went out to find Jian Yi. The prescription had been held in his hand. However, Jian Yi ran all the way into the courtyard, "Hou ye, Hou Ye."


    Zi Ran pulled him, "what''s up? So loud? "


    Jing Yuan opened his eyes, "what''s up?"


    Zi Ran came forward and put the pillow behind him. He propped up and leaned against him.


    Jian Yi said, "he Shu came back with a hundred infantry and dozens of slaves."


    "How''s it going?"


    "They also encountered a small group of pursuers, but fortunately there were no casualties. No one should be watching when you move here. " Jian Yi took a look at Zhuo Xi, "how do they settle down? Please show me."


    Jing Yuan took a look at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi understood and got up and said, "talk slowly. I''ll go to the kitchen and have a look."


    "Who let you go?" His face was still cold.


    I''m not leaving? Aren''t you dealing with business? Look at his cold face, Zhuo Xi is also a little angry. Who is he angry to show? She also resumed her business attitude. "I don''t know what else the Marquis has to say?"


    Jing Yuan said to Jian Yi, "the soldiers are handed over to Yu Liang to settle down first. As for how to deal with these slaves, it is entirely up to Zhuo Xi Yishi to deal with them." He especially emphasized the word "Yi Shi", as if to remind her of her position.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and immediately got angry, "why give it to me? This is not my responsibility. "


    "Didn''t you save the slaves?"


    She paused, as if.


    "If not, Ben Hou will let them go back and live and die."


    You''re cruel. She gnashed her teeth and said, "however, if they are all arranged to live in the villa, I wonder if the capacity of the villa is large enough to support these people?" She''s new here and doesn''t know the situation in the villa. Besides, he has a group of officers and soldiers. It''s better to count hundreds of people. Can she live there?


    "Don''t worry, Ben Hou''s family is bigger than you think." Jing Yuan still said with a cold face, "however, I don''t raise idle people. Since they are slaves, they should bring value to me."


    Zhuo Xi understood, "my subordinates obey. Please ask Lord Jian Yi to call the steward of the villa. I need to know the situation in the villa before I can assign tasks to them."


    Jing Yuan''s eyes flashed a trace of appreciation, waved and let them go down.


    Zhuo Xi reached the yard where the slaves were located and saw a crowd of black crows standing in the yard. Qumeng immediately ran over, "sister, sister!"


    She touched the kid''s head. "Are you okay?"


    She has met uncle Ma, who is the head of the group. She knows her, but Uncle Ma hasn''t seen her. He came forward from me and introduced her, "girl, Da en, my name is Ma San. I don''t know what to call the girl?"


    "My name is Zhuo Xi."


    "Thanks for saving your life, Miss Zhuo Xi." He took the lead in kneeling down. All the people behind him knelt down and shouted in unison, "thank you for saving your life, Miss Zhuo Xi."


    Zhuo Xi quickly picked up Ma San, "get up quickly."


    "Miss, I can''t repay you for your kindness. Girl, but I have a mission. I''ll follow it. "


    "Listening to Uncle Ma''s talk, it seems that he is not an ordinary slave."


    "Ma San was ashamed. I was also a family of petty officials. But my father was implicated in the ink corruption case years ago, so I was demoted to a slave."


    "I see." No wonder slaves regard him as a leader, who is qualified to lead. Zhuo Xi said to him, "although I saved you, I''m not the head of the family in this villa, so I hope you''ll have to live on your own and don''t add too much trouble to the master."


    Ma San said, "it''s natural. Although we escaped, we would have been slaves all our lives if we had no wealth documents. The world is so big that we have nowhere to go. We can provide us with a place to live here for the time being. We are very grateful. It''s nothing to say about opening up wasteland and farming. "


    "That''s very good. I''ve asked the steward. There are more than 100 temples outside the villa, and the six surrounding hills belong to the marquis. You can go to reclaim and cultivate by yourself. I''ll squeeze in this small courtyard recently. You can choose another feng shui treasure land nearby to build a new house in the future. "


    She pulled over the steward Wu next to her. "This is the steward Wu in the villa. You can consult him if you can''t make up your mind on all matters."


    Ma San said, "thank you, steward Wu. Thank you, girl. After all, we are fugitive slaves. We live in the villa for a long time for fear of bringing disaster to our master. We have discussed it. In a few days, I will wait until the terrain in the mountain is explored, choose a flat land to build a house, and then I will recuperate here in the future. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the slaves, men and women, old and young, "it''s good. Although there is no prosperity of the city here, there is freedom to avoid the world."


    "What a seclusion freedom!" Ma San bowed again, "thank you for your kindness."


    "The Marquis has promised to support you with the tools you need to open the mountain and split the house. You can find steward Wu at that time."


    "Thank you, steward Wu."


    "Well," steward Wu nodded proudly.


    "Wu is in charge. The Marquis has told them to choose by themselves. The next thing will trouble you. "


    "Yes, Lord zhuoxi." Steward Wu saluted respectfully on the surface, but there was a little criticism in his heart. Why did he take the Marquis to oppress him?


    "OK, you can discuss. I have something to go first." Zhuo Xi turned to go out, listened to the excited noise behind her and smiled.


    The next moment I heard Meng running up, "sister, I want to go with you."


    "Are you alone? There are no relatives here? "


    "Yes, I am an orphan. I was sold to the palace as a slave." This sentence seems familiar.


    "You follow me? What can you do? "


    "I can do anything. I can help you clean the house, run errands, and collect medicine for you!"


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment. Shu Yue was so afraid of the little white snake that she didn''t dare to approach her easily. Some things really need a bold and careful little boy to do.


    "Well, you''ll follow me from today on. But remember, don''t run around. "


    "You must listen to your sister when you go to Meng. You won''t run around."


    Their conversation faded away.


    The discussion in the yard became louder and more excited.


    Steward Wu, who has always been used to bullying in the villa, suddenly shouted, "be quiet!"


    The yard was suddenly quiet, "you are their leader, aren''t you?" Steward Wu said to Ma San.


    Ma San arched his hand and said, "Ma is not talented. They trust him."


    "I don''t care whether you are talented or not. Look at them and don''t let them cause me trouble. Although the Marquis told you to eat and drink freely here, if you runaway slaves leak the news and the officials trace it up, you will not have enough heads to lose. "


    "Yes, yes, yes." Ma repeatedly promised, "we won''t cause trouble. Tomorrow we''ll go to the mountains to find a foothold. It won''t bother you for too long."


    "Hum, don''t forget, you are fugitive slaves. Hide yourself well, and don''t lose your life that you finally got back. "


    He shook his hand, turned and left, and said, "Lord Hou doesn''t know what to think. He actually picked up a group of useless slaves and wants to eat and drink for free. He thinks I''m guarding Jinshan and Yinshan here?"


    The slaves who stood in front heard it. Although they were used to all kinds of sarcasm, one man couldn''t help but say, "what''s the matter with the Marquis? Today is the Lord. If the king gives an edict tomorrow, he may become a disorderly subject and thief, not even a slave. " The tone was so sharp that steward Wu understood as soon as he heard it. His face changed, "what are you talking about?!"


    Ma San quickly grabbed the speaker and shook his head. The people were silent.


    Steward Wu shook his sleeves and walked out of the gate of the courtyard.

 Chapter 15

    In the main room, there are also Zi Ran, Jian Yi and Jian Rong who are silent.


    Jing Yuan, with a cold face, reclined at the head of the bed, remained silent for a long time and asked, "is the news really right?"


    "Yes", "answered the son," the book of the eye liner flying pigeons in the palace, the secret code has been at top speed, and the fastest time today will arrive at Wang Feng.


    Jian Yi said, "Lord, it''s at least 250 miles away from Heyong pass. It''s difficult to break through at one stroke. Zhao Ting didn''t intercept us. We are searching with all our strength. If they find our trace and Wang Feng leads the troops to the south, we will face the trend of encircling both sides. "


    "How many Bai Huijun are there in the villa?"


    "Previously, there were 2000 elite hiding here. I was ready to be dispatched by the Marquis at any time. With the imperial mausoleum Garrison and dark guards, there were only more than 2500 people." The road changes.


    Zi Ran said, "although this place faces mountains on three sides, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but if their army is several times larger than ours, Zhao ting and Wang Feng are good at mountain and forest warfare and are afraid that it will be difficult to defend for a long time."


    "Bring me the map." Jing Yuan said.


    Zi Ran presented a map. Jing Yuan looked at it for a long time and decided to break through the mountain forest. "Immediately notify and clean up. An hour later, the whole army took a road from the mountain forest in the north, far around Heyong pass and went straight to the Gelao nationality in Xishui."


    "Lord Hou, there is no one to walk in the mountains and forests in the North all year round, and the road is difficult. We can''t stand the miasma even if there are many wild animals in the mountains."


    "The mountains and forests in the north have never been mined and there is no road. It is the best place for us to hide." Jing Yuan said.


    Zi Ran also advised, "if you enter the mountains and forests, you must abandon your horse. Lord Hou, you are hurt now. How can you stand trekking through mountains and rivers?"


    Jing Yuan asked, "we abandoned horses, and the enemy abandoned horses as well. Ben Hou asked you, "how many people did Zhao Ting bring?"


    Zi Ran was silent, his voice like mosquitoes and flies: "there are as many as 30000 secret reports."


    "What if you add Wang Feng''s men and horses?"


    The room changed and the room was speechless.


    "The enemy is dozens of times bigger than us. There is only one way to go south here. If you face the enemy head-on, are you sure to retreat?"


    Everyone was silent.


    Jing Yuan waved, "go and give orders."


    "Yes."


    Zhuo Xi, who knew nothing about this, came back to his residence. He just asked Shu Yue to arrange a residence for Meng. He heard that a small soldier came to preach. He said that the whole army set out in an hour.


    "What happened?" Zhuo Xi asked.


    The soldier shook his head and didn''t know. He just called the military order like a mountain.


    While she ordered Shu Yue to pack her bags, she asked qumeng to return to the yard where Ma San and his party lived to see if they had received the military order.


    She quickly called Xiaobai out and hid it in her sleeve pocket so that she wouldn''t find it again. Last night, it ran around until midnight to find the antidote. At the moment, it was sleeping soundly. Then she ran into Jingyuan''s house and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Jing Yuan glanced at her and continued to close his eyes, saying in a cold voice, "you don''t need to know, just do it."


    "If it threatens my life, I can''t know?"


    "Ben Hou will ensure your life safety."


    "Hou Ye means that this matter may really threaten my life?" Zhuo Xi was surprised and softened his tone, "Hou ye, didn''t you say that there is no deception between you and me, and everything should be told frankly?"


    "This is a military aircraft event. Didn''t you say that you shouldn''t know, don''t let you know?"


    "You..." Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and said, "in fact, if the Marquis doesn''t say, I can guess whether they sent a large team to chase us?"


    Jing Yuan was satisfied with the word "we" she just said, which meant that she stood side by side with him, which made him feel a little sweet in his heart, his face softened a little, and he wanted to struggle to get up, but a "hiss" involved the wound.


    Zhuo Xi immediately came forward and checked his gauze and found no blood exudation.


    "Lord Hou, you are still injured. If you leave by force, what happens on the way? How can I afford it?"


    "Hum, if something happens to me, you can just leave and live your free life." Jing Yuan felt inexplicable when he finished.


    Is this childish self abandonment? Zhuo Xi was a little funny and began to pack up some medical equipment used in front¡° Did you send someone to inform uncle ma? "


    "Who is uncle ma?"


    "Oh, the slaves we brought back."


    "They? They might as well stay in the villa with the old servants of the villa. Zhao Ting''s goal is Ben Hou. I don''t think they will attack a worthless man, woman, old and young. "


    As he was saying this, Zi Ran rushed in. "Duke, go quickly. A group of officers and soldiers came in from the front yard."


    Jing Yuan got up and coughed. "Doesn''t it mean that the secret decree will arrive at Heyong pass in Xushi as soon as possible?"


    "Look at their costumes. They are not the troops guarding heyongguan, but the Royal troops who pursued us before."


    "This place is so remote that they can arrive so quickly. Someone must have leaked their whereabouts."


    "Hou ye, Miss Zhuo Xi, don''t say so much first. Let''s go first." Zi Ran hurriedly put a coat on Jing Yuan, picked him up and ran out.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered, "you said, they killed in the front yard? The slaves brought back before that... "


    Zi Ran said in a low voice, "they live in the most partial courtyard of the outer courtyard. The officers and soldiers somehow find the entrance and kill people."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t say a word and put the small package in her hand on Zi Ran''s hand. "You go first, I''ll come right away."


    "Girl! Girl! " However, Zi Ran couldn''t hold him and asked the Lord for instructions, "Lord, let the girl go like this?"


    Jing Yuan closed his eyes and knew he couldn''t stop her. He made a gesture behind him, "tell her we''ll wait for her on the north mountain."


    "Yes." A low voice accompanied by the sound of his clothes fluttering. Zi Ran knew that it was Jianrong who secretly went to protect Zhuo Xi. He was also relieved.


    As soon as Zhuo Xi came out of the main house, she saw Yu Liang leading a line of orderly soldiers coming. She knew that it was some Baihui soldiers and horses who had been secretly stationed in the villa. She nodded to Yu Liang and rushed to the side yard. Sure enough, there were two groups of people fighting on the road. She escaped the red eyed crowd all the way. When she got to the side yard, she heard a familiar voice pleading by the door, "officer, you can''t kill me. If it weren''t for me, you wouldn''t know the whereabouts of the marquis. " When she looked at it, it turned out that it was steward Wu.


    "Why, you still want to wait for the reward?"


    "No, no, no, sir, I have no credit or pain. Please let a dog die. "


    "Lord Hou treated you well, but you turned around and betrayed him. What''s the use of staying in the world, you unfaithful and unjust man?" The officer and soldier wiped his neck with a knife. He fell down and stared at the boss, just looking at Zhuo Xi''s direction.


    Zhuo Xi sneered. He ducked from the sight of the officers and soldiers and entered the hospital. He saw many bodies lying in the hospital. Her heart was cold and she carefully looked for Ma Sanhe and qumeng them. The officer and soldier outside the door saw that there seemed to be a shadow by the door. He took his knife and came in. When he saw Zhuo Xi waving his knife, he cut. Zhuo Xi only heard the sound of "throwing" behind her. There was the sound of weapons entering the meat. Looking back, it was Jianrong standing on her side and stabbed the officer and soldier who still maintained the cutting posture. Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "brother Jianrong, thank you."


    Jianrong said in a deep voice, "you''re welcome, Miss Zhuo Xi. Hou ye said he was waiting for you at the north mountain. The situation is urgent. Don''t keep the Marquis waiting. "


    "OK." Zhuo Xi answered. The longer you wait, the greater the risk. I understand.


    Zhuo Xi and her husband went to the hospital to look for it. Suddenly, after passing a corner, an axe came. Zhuo Xi flashed sideways and stepped forward. In a few rounds, he caught the man with the axe.


    "Stop." Ma San ran out of the darkness, "Miss Zhuo Xi, are you okay?"


    "I''m fine."


    "I''m sorry, they''re all soldiers." Ma San said sorry.


    "How are you?"


    "Fortunately, the girl sent Xiao Meng to report. We were prepared and found some tools and weapons first, but several brothers were killed and injured."


    Ma San led them to a dark room. Xiao Meng and others were in it. When Xiao Meng saw her coming, he rushed up, "sister, Xiao Meng is so afraid."


    "Don''t be afraid. You are a man. You have to protect your mother-in-law and aunt."


    "Well, Xiao Meng will." He shook his shovel in his hand.


    Zhuo Xi looked sad, "let''s evacuate to the north. You... "


    Go to Meng and hold her. "Sister, can we go with you?"


    "The place we evacuated may not be safe..." she looked at Jianrong and explained, "the mountains and forests in the north have never been developed, the roads are difficult, there are many wild animals, and there is miasma. I''m afraid that if one doesn''t take good care of it, everyone will be in danger of life."


    "So what? It''s also a death here. There may be a glimmer of life ahead. "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and looked at Ma San. "Uncle Ma, this villa has been exposed, and a large number of officers and soldiers are coming. You are in crisis here. I''m not very familiar with you, but if you trust me, I''ll take you out from the North First, and then we''ll act according to our circumstances in the mountains. How about? "


    Ma Sany hugged his fist. "Ma Sanming remembers the great righteousness of the girl."


    He turned to the people in the house and said, "brothers and sisters, miss zhuoxi won''t leave us and will take us together, but the road ahead is still dangerous. We have to go quickly. I hope you can help each other. Don''t drag miss zhuoxi''s hind legs, but put miss zhuoxi in danger. What do you say?"


    "Good!" As soon as they heard this, they immediately took up their weapons, supported each other and rushed out.


    Zhuo Xi looked at him, "if you like, show us a clear way; If you don''t want to, you can go back to your master first and tell him that you don''t have to wait for me. It''s important to protect your life and meet him when you have a chance in the future. "


    Jianrong clenched his teeth and pointed in a direction, "girl, please!", Then he shouted, "you all come with me."


    The party walked along a narrow path on the edge of the side yard and went straight to the north mountain. The previous Imperial troops were wiped out. But we all know that a large number of people and horses are about to be killed, and we dare not take it lightly.


    Jianrong rate went to an attic first, made a secret signal similar to the cuckoo''s cry from a distance, made another gesture, and soon saw the pavilion door slowly open. Zhuo Xi stood at the door and let the people behind go first. While waiting, she looked up at the attic and saw the shadow of arrows looming from the four windows upstairs. She knew that this might be an arrow tower. Fortunately, there was room for it. Otherwise, if she accidentally walked here, they would all become hedgehogs.


    "This is the first defense barrier and the only way to the north," Jianrong explained


    "Are there enough arrows?"


    "Nature is limited. Hiding weapons is a great crime. A moment is a moment. "


    Zhuo Xi pondered and asked, "is there fire oil in the villa?"


    "Yes."


    She said something in his ear, and suddenly looked very happy, "girl, good idea!"


    He immediately called in a soldier and gave him detailed instructions.


    Soon all the slaves went in. Zhuo Xi was relieved and was preparing to close the door. Suddenly, Jianrong ran over and grabbed to close the door. They walked in. Jianrong changed his reluctant look just now and couldn''t wait to introduce the terrain here to Zhuo Xi, "there are three lines of defense here. The exit of this attic is connected to a stone bridge, and the mountain in the north is on the other side of the bridge. Under the bridge is the Lishui river. There are four independent mountains along the river, each not connected. The whole villa is surrounded by mountains and connected with four independent mountains by a stone bridge. We have set up secret sentries and archers on the arrow tower in front of the stone bridge. No matter which side they attack from, they will encounter obstacles. Even if they break through, they may return empty handed. " The more proud he is.


    This is a good arrangement. It seems that Jing Yuan spent a lot of effort when he bought here. The stone bridge is narrow and small, allowing only 1-2 people to pass side by side. One man is in charge of the pass, and ten thousand people can''t open it. Under the four pronged approach, it can effectively confuse the enemy''s line of sight. Zhuo Xi praised the fortification. The only fly in the ointment is the stone bridge. If it is her, it must be designed as a floating bridge or a lifting slab bridge. In an emergency, the route can be cut off to make the enemy sigh at the river. But the stone bridge was not unusable, so she attached it to his ear and said a word. Jianrong''s face admired more and more, "I''ll let someone do it immediately!"


    Some of the slaves in front had stepped on the steps of the bank. Jianrong had sent soldiers to signal, so they walked unimpeded all the way. Zhuo Xi looked at it casually. People could be seen on both sides of the stone bridge. It seemed that strange soldiers were hidden.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly asked, "how deep is the river?"


    "The river ¡õ¡õ, even the tallest man in the army will have no top when entering the water, and the river is more than 100 feet wide. It is impossible for the enemy to cross the river." But what if there is one with particularly good water properties? Moreover, the stone bridge has stone piers on the water for people to rest underwater. She immediately thought of a way, "well, you can..." she said so and so for a while. She nodded and looked more and more admiring. After hearing this, he summoned a small captain with a happy face, and gave orders like this. The small captain excitedly took the order and went away.


    There are hundreds of steps on the shore. At the end is a small attic. The terrain is steep and steep. It is also easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is the last line of defense. Then she put forward suggestions on some arrangements, which were basically used to add roadblocks to the enemy. The faces were adopted one by one and looked flying. They hurried all the way, talked all the way, and soon reached the small pavilion. Jing Yuan and his party are waiting here.


    Zi Ran was obviously relieved to see them coming,


    Zhuo Xi settled Ma San and reminded them to take a rest and don''t walk around.


    She then went to the leader to report¡° See Lord. " She said.


    Jing Yuan said coldly, "you''re here."


    "Is your injury okay?"


    "Fortunately, I can''t die."


    "What angry words are you saying? If you want to make any mistakes, don''t we people lose the value of existence?" Zhuo Xi quickly flattered.


    Jing Yuan said coldly, "hum, in your opinion, these people are much more important than Ben Hou."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "how could it? In my mind, you are the most important. " She meditated in her heart. Now he is a child and a patient. He must be coaxed.


    He glanced and found that Jianrong looked too excited. He asked in surprise, "Jianrong, what are you happy about?" What''s so exciting about the enemy?


    "You don''t know, marquis. Miss Zhuo Xi is very talented. Just now, she slightly adjusted our fortifications at the foot of the mountain, and the combat effectiveness increased steadily by at least five times. If you don''t believe it, let''s wait and see. " Jianrong said excitedly.


    Jing Yuan looked at Zhuo Xi, "you still know how to March and fight?"


    Zhuo Xi said angrily, "don''t look down on people, will you?"


    "You are so frank." What about being honest?


    "It''s not that I didn''t say, and you didn''t ask me." Zhuo Xi replied. In those years, she was also the first killer on the list. She organized and arranged various ambushes and assassinations with modern weapons as the defense line. These fortifications of small fighting and small killing in the era of cold weapons are not small cases?


    When they saw that they began to quarrel again, they left the Marquis with a little contempt and went aside to gossip with Jianrong. They secretly read the Marquis, marquis. Sure enough, you can''t grasp the key point when you meet Miss Zhuo Xi? After listening for a while, they described it incoherently. These people came from the sea of fire of Daolin. They were very excited just by imagination. They couldn''t help looking forward to the coming battle. They had to face several times the pressure of their own enemies.


    After talking about the battle, the gossip spirit was obviously not fully satisfied. Looking at Wu Xing, who was silent, hip-hop asked, "brother Wu, why are your six younger sisters so smart? Read and read with you since childhood? "


    Wu Xing''s heart was already surging. He really didn''t know when this sister could bring him any surprise or panic. He was sweating under the crowd and said, "we went to school for a few days."


    "It''s boring to keep this secret. Let''s talk about whether she is a smart Superman and reads widely as a child? What books does she read? " It''s amazing to know not only medical skills, but also military affairs.


    When Wu Xing was embarrassed, he glanced casually, and his eyes suddenly stared straight. When they looked along his line of sight, they gasped: the girl Zhuo Xi, who they had just admired, actually pressed the Marquis on the chair and began to undress. What surprised them most was that the Marquis looked wronged and let Zhuo Xi make trouble.


    Wu Xing took a deep breath and couldn''t bear to look again. He turned to the corner and drew a circle. Can his reputation be worse as a nominal sister? Could it be more unreliable? All the family customs of his Wu family were destroyed.

 Chapter 16

    Zhuo Xi over there listened to Jing Yuan''s strange tone and suspected that he was diverting his attention. She asked coldly, "are you hiding something from me?"


    Jing Yuan was about to shake his head. He remembered his agreement with her and shut his mouth.


    She guessed, "did the wound crack?"


    "Leave it alone." He tried to pretend to be cold, but why did that sound childish?


    That''s it?


    "I really don''t care?" She looked at him and asked, "tell the truth."


    He looked at her without answering.


    She pressed him on one of the only two chairs in the attic. Some angrily untied his coat and opened his gauze. The wound had burst and blood and meat were pasted together. She called Shu Yue to bring her baggage, found the powder, put it on him carefully, and wrapped it up again. She said in a cold voice, "don''t you know you''re hurt? Walking depends on legs and feet, not chest and back! Do you think someone will pity you if you make yourself like this? It doesn''t matter if you don''t want your own life. Think about these brothers who sacrificed their lives to protect your friendship. If you hurt yourself to death or drag the enemy to catch up, how can you embarrass them? "


    Peeping at the interaction between the two of them in the distance, their chin was about to fall off.


    Jing Yuan''s indifferent face gradually showed light, "are you concerned about me?"


    "I don''t care. Can you do it? You are a patient now. " Zhuo Xi said unhappily, wrapping the last circle of white cloth around his chest and preparing to tie a knot.


    He stretched out his hand and hugged her waist. "Don''t leave me alone."


    Zhuo Xi froze. He hasn''t been surrounded by stars all the time. When did he leave him alone? She said angrily, "what are you doing? Let go. Don''t let me bandage again!"


    He let her go, honestly let her tie the last knot, and then put on her clothes. He stood up and shouted, "the whole army set out."


    They stumbled. Is this the gentle and wronged Marquis like a little daughter-in-law just now? Everyone looked at each other. Well, this is the Hou Ye they were familiar with.


    Zhuo Xi pinched his arm again, "what are you doing shouting so loudly? Let the wound crack again? " Could it be that the direct cause of his wound splitting in front was shouting? Okay, what''s the ghost''s name?! What she didn''t know was that in front of him, he actually integrated all kinds of emotions of worry, tension, entanglement and regret, and could only alleviate his emotions by shouting. At the same time, he found that shouting affected the wound and brought physical pain, which could better cover up his anxiety, so he became louder and louder.


    Jing Yuan immediately whispered, "I see."


    They stumbled again and helped their forehead.


    At this time, a small soldier trotted up to report urgently, "Lord, Zhao Ting''s vanguard troops have arrived in the villa and are trying their best to search for our whereabouts."


    "How many people are there?"


    "It is roughly estimated that there are about 3000 people."


    Everyone looked cold and looked down the mountain. They are located on the small hillside of this nameless mountain, facing Tonglin villa, with a panoramic view of the situation in the villa. Sure enough, there are people in the villa.


    It''s almost evening and the sun is setting. Zhuo Xi looked up at the sunlight, looked at the humble attic that looked like a sentry post, and asked, "what''s the situation on the mountain? How many days can you keep it? Is there any strategic material? Is there an escape route? "


    Zi Ran felt his nose awkwardly. Zhuo Xi was surprised and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Zi Ran looked at his Marquis and saw the master nodding. Then he hesitated and said, "the mountain was built only as a shelter, so the path is only built here. There is no grain in the pavilion. As for the escape route... "Was not considered at all.


    Zhuo Xi''s face slowly cracked. Fortunately, she secretly admired the designer of the villa. She thought he was professional enough and knew how to confuse the enemy''s eyes and ears. I didn''t expect this project to be a tiger head and a snake tail. I didn''t expect how to escape if the first three lines of defense failed. It''s a big failure.


    Jing Yuan explained in a low voice, "benhou had been assassinated countless times before. Furong villa was set up to deal with assassins. I didn''t expect to encounter a large number of regular army attacks one day, so..."


    "So, how many enemy troops are there?" Zhuo Xi immediately asked the key.


    Zi Ran immediately kept silent and dared not speak.


    Jingyuan had to answer, "according to the spies, there may be 50000 people."


    "What?!" Zhuo Xi took a cold breath, "how many defenders do we have?"


    Jing Yuan could already hear that the lower her voice was, the more angry she was. He dared not answer again and looked at Ziran.


    Zi Ran couldn''t bear her anger, so he quickly pushed it off to Jian Yi, the director of military aircraft. "Adult Jian Yi knows better than his subordinates."


    Jianyi had to step forward, "the white Hui army and the dark guard had a total of 2500 people, and 300 people were in ambush at the arrow towers and stone bridges. There were also 500 heavy troops here, and about 800 people were left to protect the side of the marquis."


    Twenty five to fifty thousand? Are you free to chat here? Zhuo Xi wanted to open their brains to see whether rust was funny or water was in the water.


    "What are you waiting for? Waiting for reinforcements? Are there reinforcements? " Her voice rose and she asked with a trace of expectation.


    Jian Yi hesitated and shook his head, "the flying pigeon has sent a book. But the reinforcements are thousands of miles away. This is near the suburbs of Beijing. It will take ten days to get there. I''m afraid it''s too late. "


    "Then don''t you dial it right away?" Zhuo Xi pressed her anger in a low voice. This is only a small-scale military group discussion. It can''t be too loud. "If there is no escape route, you have to dig one at the scene. Otherwise, we''ll have to wait and die. " The military situation is like fire. What''s the matter with them chatting here with leisure?


    Didn''t I wait for you before? After a while, Yi stepped forward and said, "Yu Liang has gone to open the way with a small army. Masters, this way, please. " He has automatically classified Zhuo Xi as a master.


    "Wait," Zhuo Xi shouted again, "Shu Yue, bring the burden."


    On one side, Shu Yue, who was repeatedly suffering from despair and hope, heard the speech and opened the burden. Zhuo Xi pulled out several packets of medicinal powder from the bag and handed it to Zi Ran, "let the brothers sprinkle it on them, which can drive away some mosquitoes, rats and ants."


    "Thank you, girl."


    She shouted to Ma San in the distance, "Uncle Ma, please come here."


    Ma San stood far away and didn''t hear their discussion on military affairs. He only had a difficult road ahead. Hearing Zhuo Xi call him from afar, he trotted over.


    She handed him a few packets, "Uncle Ma, sprinkle some of these packets of medicinal powder on your body to prevent some mosquitoes, rats and ants. If the quantity is small, just these packets to save some money."


    Ma San took it. Thank you very much.


    The crowd began to move forward.


    Ma Sanzheng shouted the slaves to come and sprinkle medicine powder while informing them that they were ready to go. Suddenly there was a scream not far away, and then soldiers pulled out their weapons. Soon there was another scream of animals.


    Everyone immediately went to watch. Zhuo Xi looked away from the crowd. It turned out to be a mandrill, a fierce monkey. Has been killed by the soldiers under the tree. Ma San came forward and explained, "before, the two people felt hungry, so they went to the bushes to find some fruit. Unexpectedly, they were suddenly attacked by this man." The mandrill''s strength was infinite. When he saw a stranger rush forward, he grabbed one and fell onto the rock. Before the man could make a scream, his brain was thrown out. The other man screamed and wanted to run away, but he was caught by it and threw it on the ground. He threw it several times and lost his breath.


    Zhuo Xi saw that people were dead and had no choice. "Uncle Ma, please go and emphasize discipline with them. There are many dangers in the mountains and forests. Let them not leave the team and walk around at will."


    Jianrong, who was watching closely at the foot of the mountain, suddenly shouted, "look."


    When they looked down the mountain, they saw that there were three firelights in front of the four arrow towers, but this was not a torch, but a fire oil bag tied to the arrow was lit and drew an arc at all angles in the air.


    Some soldiers praised, "it''s amazing that someone can think of such a way to fight." In this way, the lethality of the arrow is greatly increased.


    People looked at Zhuo Xi. She lifted her broken hair on her cheek calmly, "let''s go. If you want to see a good play, there will be more. " In the bronze age, even weapons were very backward. For the time being, no one thought this method was normal. She was just exposed to the light of future generations. Everyone''s eyes, how can you enjoy standing beside her?


    Soon a small soldier came up in time to broadcast the war, "report! The enemy who came to attack the Western arrow tower in the first wave was wiped out by the whole army. "


    The soldiers cheered and hugged Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi and began to climb over the mountains along the newly opened path.


    Then small soldiers kept coming up to broadcast the war situation, and the first wave of enemy troops in front of the three arrow towers were wiped out.


    The morale of the people increased greatly.


    The humidity in the mountain is very heavy, and the newly opened path is not smooth. From time to time, someone will fall and slip. Rao is so. Their speed is not slow. They soon catch up with Yu Liang, who opened the road slowly in front of them. The two teams joined together and continued to move forward slowly. Probably there were a large number of people. The fierce animals they imagined didn''t appear. They only occasionally heard the sound of breaking by.


    There are many people, but they really gradually come out of a way.


    Zhuo Xi sighed and embezzled a famous saying recited by the primary school, "there is no road in the world. When there are many people, it becomes a road."


    Zi Ran looked at her admiringly. Shu Yue followed Wu Xing. She was very formal. When she saw everyone talking and laughing, she ignored the rules. After listening to Zhuo Xi''s emotion, she couldn''t help praising, "Miss, good literary talent!"


    After a while, Shu Yue pulled La Wuxing''s sleeve and whispered, "young master, Shu Yue is a little hungry. She set out temporarily and didn''t bring anything to eat. Look, there are some small fruits on this tree. Can you eat them? "


    Before her voice fell, someone rushed to the tree, picked a wild fruit, put it in his mouth and chewed it. It seems a little hungry. Others picked it one after another.


    Xiao Bai in Zhuo Xi''s sleeve climbed out, sniffed and shook his head. Unfortunately Zhuo Xi didn''t see it. Xiaobai touched her wrist with her head. Zhuo Xi raised her sleeve and saw Xiaobai shaking her head. Her face changed, "wait a minute, you can''t eat!"


    But it was late. The man who picked the fruit first grabbed his neck and planted it from the tree. His face was black. The people who came to pick in the back were so frightened that they immediately threw away the wild fruit.


    A guard beside Zhuo Xi shouted, "girl, be careful!" Took out the knife and cut it on her arm.


    Jing Yuan, who was on his side, quickly kicked the dark guard, "presumptuous!"


    The guard was wronged. "Girl, there is a snake in the girl''s sleeve!"


    Zhuo Xi touched her heart to jump out, "it''s okay. It''s Xiaobai. It''s my friend."


    "Friends?"


    She put Xiaobai out to show, "it''s very powerful. It''s poisonous. It knows as soon as it smells. Now everyone is hungry. Shall we ask him to help us find some edible fruits? "


    "Can''t it really bite us?" A guard was skeptical.


    "Absolutely not." Zhuo Xi let it out. "Xiaobai, do you know there are non-toxic fruits around here?"


    Xiaobai nodded and motioned her to follow. She found some small yellow fruits among the trees. Zhuo Xi said, "this can be eaten. You can eat it." Seeing that everyone was hesitant, Zhuo Xi took the lead in picking one and put it into her mouth. Then Zi Ran and Wu Xing picked some to eat. Seeing that they had nothing to eat, the people who followed came to pick. Xiaobai took them to find several places with wild fruits and a wild banana tree. Full of plantains grow on the trees. People have never seen this kind of fruit and don''t know how to eat it. Zhuo Xi happily commanded Zi Ran to pick some from the tree, peeled off the skin in full view of the public, and tasted it. It was sweet and a little bitter.


    Zi Ran drew the gourd suspiciously, took a bite and found that it tasted good. He happily handed it to Jing Yuan, "Lord Hou, you have a taste."


    "How can a cheap girl eat it?" If I didn''t know you, shouldn''t I study plantain for the first time?


    You don''t talk, no one thinks you''re dumb! Zhuo Xi didn''t know how to answer. He raised his eyes and saw Xiaobai shaking his tail just after eating. He had to point the spear at it, "it told me." Anyway, only she can understand Xiaobai''s language.


    Xiaobai looked at her lazily, too lazy to distinguish.


    "When did it tell you?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "it told me before." She came forward and put Xiaobai back into her sleeve pocket. She knew it was full and ready to go to bed.


    The party ate a lot and continued on the road. Fruit has this advantage, which can quench both thirst and hunger.


    Walking, Zhuo Xi felt that Xiaobai in her sleeve pocket suddenly ran restlessly around. Didn''t she wake up just after she fell asleep?


    "Xiaobai, what''s the matter with you?" She whispered.


    Xiaobai poked out a small head and shook his head hard.


    Zhuo Xi stopped and asked, "do you mean there is danger ahead? The very dangerous one? "


    Xiaobai nodded like mashing garlic.


    She immediately grabbed Jing Yuan and reported to him, "Xiaobai said there was danger ahead. Do you want them to stop first?"


    He looked at her: "are you sure Xiaobai said it?"


    He emphasized the word "say".


    Zhuo Xi stared, "yes. Why, don''t you believe me? "


    "Believe, believe!" Jing Yuan couldn''t help reaching out and rubbing her hair. "There''s no road here. They mined the road. I''ll just let them change direction. "


    Before he could speak, he saw that the people in front suddenly stopped. The first one retreated, and the people behind him didn''t know why. Suddenly the man in charge shouted, "python, run.". He ran into the crowd behind him, and the others followed him back.


    Zhuo Xi fixed her eyes and saw that there was a python circling on the tree in front, spitting out a red core. No wonder Xiaobai was afraid of this.


    But ordinary soldiers are afraid of boa constrictors, and those skilled dark guards are not afraid. Jianyi Jianrong directly took the sword and attacked the python.


    Although the python is huge, it is also agile. For a moment, he circled up the tree and fell to the people in a straight line, causing the soldiers to flee. Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan left early to watch the war in their spare time, but they found that there was another fire at the foot of the mountain. It seemed that there was a second wave of people attacking, and there were a large number of people. I don''t know how many more than the first wave. After a while, the same three arrow towers fired rockets. It seems that the enemy is still chasing in three ways.


    The dark guards fought with the python for dozens of rounds, and finally nailed the python to a tree, but there was no applause. Turning around, Jing Yuan and others looked solemnly at the foot of the mountain. They surrounded and looked at the enemy several times as much as before. They also lost the pride of fighting Python just now.


    Sure enough, the small soldier came up again and sent a message, saying that Zhao Ting''s army was crushed by the whole army. The crowd looked at the arrow tower silently. There were fewer and fewer rockets. They knew that the arrows were running out. Seeing that the enemy was about to break through the first line of defense, Zhuo Xi suddenly asked, "is there an escape secret way in the arrow tower?" No one answered her.


    "What if the arrow tower is broken? What will they do? "


    Jing Yuan and the guards were silent. In their concept, if the level was conquered, the soldiers guarding would face a close-up meat war until the last minute.


    Zhuo Xi grabbed Jing Yuan''s sleeve and said, "you have a way to inform them, right?"


    Jing Yuan''s face shook, "Jianrong, send a signal to them." He turned to Zhuo Xi again. "What are you going to tell them?"


    "Let them do everything they can to protect themselves and keep the green mountains. They are not afraid of no firewood." All the guards are huge earthquakes. Their education has always been to protect the Marquis to the death. They never thought that if the mission fails, they should try their best to protect themselves.


    Jianrong was shocked: "Lord, if you escape before the battle, it''s a deserter!"


    "They are not fleeing before the battle, nor should they be called deserters. They have completed their task, but they have run out of materials and strive to protect themselves." Zhuo Xi said.


    Jing Yuan was silent. "Inform them again that the Marquis pardoned them innocent. If you can survive, go to Wuyong mountain to meet the main force of Baihui army!"


    When Jianrong said "yes" loudly, he went down to carry out it.

 Chapter 17

    Zhuo Xi pressed the huge shock in her heart and looked back and found that the python was dead. He patted his chest and followed the army. When passing the python body, Xiaobai suddenly put out her head and hit her wrist. She raised her sleeve and asked it, Xiaobai, what are you going to say? The little white head nodded in the direction of the Python and nodded her wrist.


    "You want to see it, don''t you?"


    Xiaobai nodded.


    The Python''s huge body hung on the tree, staring at the boss and looking very scary. She couldn''t resist Xiaobai, so she had to slowly approach the python.


    Xiaobai gets closer and opens his mouth wider to Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi looked confused. "Xiaobai, do you want to eat it?" You can''t eat your little body.


    Xiaobai lowered his head again, knocked on his chest, and then raised his head and opened his mouth


    Zhuo Xi suddenly understood, "you mean to open it?" Xiaobai nodded excitedly.


    Zhuo Xi understood. She came forward and opened the python with a bronze sword, and a pile of internal organs flowed all over the ground. Zhuo Xi frowned in disgust. Xiaobai pointed to the huge snake gall with his tail. Zhuo Xi suddenly realized that snake gall is a precious medicinal material. It has miraculous effects in treating some diseases. Although she is not interested in medicine, she is well prepared, not to mention this rare precious medicinal material.


    But when Zhuo Xi took the snake gall in her hand, Xiaobai hid in her sleeve pocket with fear and trembled. She looked at Xiaobai strangely, ready to turn back and ask Shu Yue to pass a cloth to wrap the snake gall. But I saw Xiaobai poking his head out and shaking his head at her.


    Before she could react, she smelled a fishy wind, and another Python came at her with a big mouth open from behind the body.


    "Be careful!" With a loud cry, she just felt herself thrown to the ground. Wu Xing rolled around with her and escaped the attack of Python. When the python missed, he swayed Yong''s swollen body, threw his tail sideways and hit Wu Xing on the back. Wu Xing snorted stiffly, and a trace of blood came out of the corners of his mouth.


    Zi Ran grabbed Jing Yuan who was going to fight, "Lord Hou, you are hurt. Go down and save Miss Zhuo!" Jianyi Jianrong had already flown forward. When Python saw several figures flying in front of him and saw Wu Xing and Zhuo Xi lying on the ground, he thought they were easy to deal with, so he avoided the attack and turned to attack them. Zhuo Xi lay on her back and saw the python coming. She had to hold Wu Xing and roll aside. Unexpectedly, the rocks were steep and there was a slope with an angle of almost 80 degrees below. Wu Xing turned over and lay on the ground. Zhuo Xi kept rolling down the steep slope.


    The three of them entangled the python, but they saw a flower in front of them. Jing Yuan had raised his Qi and swept over the steep slope.


    Zhuo Xi slipped all the way and didn''t catch anything to slow down. Suddenly, he felt his waist tight. When he opened his eyes, Jing Yuan caught her in one hand and stabbed her into the rocks with a sword in the other hand. Finally, the speed of the two falling slowed down and finally stopped. They were half lying and half hanging on the steep slope. She stared at his chest, and the blood slowly seeped out. For a moment she didn''t know whether to scold or move. Zi Ran''s cry came over his head, "Lord Hou, Lord Hou, grab the rope!"


    Zhuo Xi looked up and hung down a thick rope. She grabbed it and said, "I''ve got it. Let go of me and grab the rope." Jing Yuan grabbed her waist in one hand and the handle of the sword in the other. He couldn''t grasp the rope. After making sure she had grasped the rope, she shouted up, "pull her up first!"


    Zhuo Xi''s nose was a little sour. He took another rope next to him. "There''s another one. Hold on. Let''s go up together."


    When they were pulled up, Jing Yuan stroked his chest and looked at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi thought he was suffering from a cracked wound and wanted to say something. Jing Yuan hugged her in his arms and said in her ear, "Ben Hou is so afraid."


    Afraid? What are you afraid of? Afraid she''s dead? Don''t you know the scourge lives for thousands of years? She was about to make a joke, but she saw his body leaning weakly on her.


    "Lord? Hou ye? " They helped him away. While she stopped bleeding for him as quickly as possible, she ordered Zi Ran to take someone to cut two bamboo or straight hard branches. When she changed the medicine and bandage, a simple stretcher was ready. They carried them to Jingyuan, and the army moved to the top of the mountain.


    Zhuo Xi opened the body of the second Python and was ready to take out the snake gall, but she was shocked to find that there was a human bulge in the snake''s abdomen. She thought it was pregnant before. Unexpectedly, it just swallowed a person alive. She was covered with cold hair, trembled, took out the snake gall and hurried away. A man in the back ran up quickly, asked the soldier to borrow a knife and cut open its abdomen, and immediately burst into tears, "Lao Bian, you said you went to release your hand, but you didn''t come back. How could you be buried in the snake''s belly!" People can''t bear to hear the bleak cry. The party left the scene quickly, and everyone was terrified.


    Shu Yue had already held Wu Xing with soft legs. Xiaohu came out from the ranks of soldiers behind and held the injured Wu Xing.


    On the way, another small soldier reported that the enemy had broken the first line of defense and was crossing the stone bridge. As they walked slowly, they raised their heads and looked down at the bottom of the mountain. Under the setting sun, the stone bridge is full of thorns, which is difficult to pass in a short time. There were soldiers chopping and trampling. It was not easy to pass slowly. Near the end of the stone bridge, suddenly a flint flew into a thorn. The thorn had been soaked with fire oil and burned quickly. The whole stone bridge became a fire bridge.


    Zi Ran has a good eye. He seems to see a commander standing on the opposite bank standing out of the crowd, that is Zhao ting. He was jumping and yelling.


    After a while, he seemed to give an order, and some soldiers jumped into the river. It turned out that they were going to cross the river by force. However, after the soldier jumped down, he never came up again. The place where he fell into the water gradually exuded bright red. Some people on the stone bridge planted trees in the river because of the fire, but none of them floated. The setting sun had fallen half. After a while, the river became more and more red under the oblique irradiation of the setting sun. Zhao Ting didn''t know what was under the water. He was so angry that he pushed all the soldiers around him into the water. Then someone found out the doorway under the water and told him: the long grass was inserted straight under the water, and the tip of the grass was facing the water. Zhao Ting sighed and walked up and down the bank, wondering what he was thinking. From time to time, soldiers came to report something to him.


    Zi Ran looked into the distance and found that the stone bridges on the other two sides also lit a fire.


    The setting sun gradually sank completely to the other side of the mountain. It was dark, and the burning stone bridge became brighter and brighter in the dark. The stone bridge burned for almost an hour. Even if it went out, the temperature of the stone bridge could not be changed. This has won them valuable time.


    Zhuo Xi and his party quietly headed for the top of the mountain. The mountain has no way. Their idea is to go directly from the top of the mountain to the other side of the mountain, and then go down quietly to find another way out.


    At this time, Zhao Ting suddenly shot at this side of the mountain under the reminder of a soldier.


    Zi Ran shouted, "they found us." Sure enough, Zhao Jun raised a torch and shouted excitedly, "they''re here, they''re here!"


    Zhuo Xi was wondering why it was dark, but she was found. She heard Yi fly to the back of the team, "put out the fire extinguisher!" It turned out that several of the slaves who followed were old and had bad eyes. They lit torches. Only then did Zhao Ting find them and determine their trace. But it was too late to put out the torch again. Only speed up the climb.


    Zhao Ting across the river bank was overjoyed when he determined their trace. He ordered people to recall the people and horses of the other two attacks and concentrate their firepower to drive this way. He was worried that most of the soldiers were not familiar with water. Looking at the looming long grass under the water, he thought for a while, roared up to the sky, and issued a inhuman instruction.


    Small soldiers came up one after another to report. The crowd first admired Zhuo Xi''s previous arrangement, and later they heard more and more creepy.


    "Zhao Ting ordered his subordinates to test the water in order to cross the river."


    "According to the newspaper, Zhao Ting department found a long grass underwater and is trying to remove it." But there are corpses on many long grass. It''s not so easy to remove them.


    "Report, Zhao Ting ordered the soldiers to stop dialing Mao." What does he want to do


    "Reported that Zhao Ting ordered the soldiers to jump directly into the river and fill the river with people." what? Did he fill the river with living people?


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help sighing. She was really a veteran on the battlefield. This move not only solves the problem of crossing the river, but also solves the problem that most of the army are not used to water. The corpses of soldiers are fixed in position with spears. After accumulating, subsequent soldiers can step on the corpses directly.


    An hour later, "it was reported that Zhao Ting had abandoned the bridge to cross the river, and the man bridge had reached the middle of the river."


    Half an hour later, "it was reported that the man bridge was close to the shore and thirty feet offshore."


    Half an hour later, "report, the bridge is ten feet offshore." It takes a long time to get closer. It can be imagined how hard it takes to fill the river with people.


    Finally, when they finally climbed to the top of the mountain, "it was reported that Zhao Tingbu had successfully landed."


    At this time, they can''t see the situation on the steps on the shore. It''s just conceivable that there are rolling stones and logs on the steps, as well as bows and arrows and close flesh. This is the last line of defense and the last human wall.


    Jianrong asked the master for instructions, and sent 300 elite soldiers to wait on the hillside. Zhuo Xi didn''t agree with this kind of human wall. However, according to the estimation of Jianrong, even if the number of Zhao Ting has lost two-thirds after several rounds of attacks, there are still more than 10000 people. If all these ten thousand people climb this nameless hill, even one foot can flatten them on the top of the mountain. Jianrong''s idea is that the time for marching and fighting is life. These people can delay for a while.


    The situation is becoming more and more urgent. Zhuo Xi and his party could not help accelerating their pace. When they climbed to the top of the mountain, they were silly. Yu Liang came and reported to Jing Yuan lying on the stretcher, "Lord Hou, it seems that the front is impassable." Anxiety was evident¡° What''s going on? " He got up when he heard the speech. "Go and have a look."


    Sure enough, we have reached the top of the mountain, but there is a big pit in the middle of the mountain. We can''t see what''s going on opposite. If they want to go opposite, they must pass through this big pit. But there was a hissing sound from time to time in the pit.


    Zhuo Xi ordered someone to light a torch to see that the pit was full of all kinds of snakes. Zhuo Xi took a closer look at the big pit. The pit wall is red and the rock is circular and concave, which is a typical crater feature. It seems that because the crater is warm, snakes have come here to breed and lay eggs. The snakes in the pit saw many creatures coming up, and those close opened their mouths and came to prey. The soldiers who opened the way in front have been scared back and forth. The following team stopped when they saw the front. Some brave people crowded to the front to see the situation. They were scared to run back when they saw the full pit of snakes. Several snakes jumped up to attack when they saw someone running. For a moment, the soldiers poked their knives and ignited their torches. The snakes are ready to move out of the pit. Several people were accidentally bitten by snakes, and they all died immediately.


    Zi Ran and several dark guards closely surrounded Jing Yuan and stood in strict formation to prevent snakes from attacking them. Zhuo Xi saw Wu Xing pulling Shu Yue. Shu Yue was pushed to the periphery in the crowd, stepped on a snake and screamed "ah". When the red snake saw prey coming to her, it took aim at the direction and shot at her.


    Zhuo Xi was so close to her that she couldn''t help reaching out and pulling her. Unexpectedly, Shu Yue was too nervous and pulled hard. They staggered and exchanged positions. Shu Yue screamed, "miss!" Zhuo Xi was surprised and thought it was over. How did he hit the snake mouth? But strangely, Zhuo Xi waited for a while and didn''t feel any pain. She looked carefully. On the contrary, the dark red snake quickly retreated, and several other snakes around her retreated away from her.


    Zi Ran shouted anxiously, "Miss Zhuo Xi!" Other people also shouted one after another. Jing Yuan was so frightened that he was about to come. Zhuo Xi made a gesture, "Shh... Don''t come here." Jing Yuan ignored it and turned over and flew to her. He rested all the way and was much better.


    "Hou Ye!" But they exclaimed.


    He looked at her up and down. "Are you okay?"


    Zhuo Xi was angry. "I told you not to come here. What are you doing here?"


    Jing Yuan was also angry, "Ben Hou said to ensure your life safety."


    Zhuo Xi, "I''m not in danger. Look at those snakes."


    She was right. The snakes were really slowly retreating. She took a careful step forward and the snake in front stepped back. Is it a torch? She raised her left torch forward, but the snake on her left didn''t respond. They live in the high temperature environment of the crater all year round. How can they fear torches? She waved her right hand forward empty. Sure enough, the snakes shrank in fear. She handed the torch to Jing Yuan and took out Xiaobai and the two snake galls from her right sleeve pocket. She still tested the snake gall in her left hand and right hand. Unexpectedly, as soon as the snake gall came out, the snakes fled faster.


    "No wonder you seemed scared when I took off the snake gall." She said to Xiaobai. People outside the pit were relieved to see that Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi were not in danger. When they saw the effect of snake gall, their faces were full of surprise.


    She then untied a snake gall and threw it to Zi Ran on the bank. "Come and try."


    Zi Ran took the snake gall and a trembling heart and carefully went down the snake pit. Sure enough, the snakes retreated one after another.


    BINGO£¡ That''s it! Zhuo Xi snapped her fingers, "Zi Ran, let''s open the way. You can cushion the back."


    Zi Ran called Shangjian Yi and Jianrong, "come and stand with me." Jianyi and Jianrong jumped to the open space beside him, one left and one right, clamping his trembling body.


    Jing Yuan nodded to Yu Liang and walked forward slowly holding Zhuo Xi''s waist. The snakes retreated on both sides, and they made a way out of the middle. The people behind began to walk forward tremblingly, holding torches and staring at the snakes, lest any snake rush up again.


    Fortunately, everyone passed the big snake pit smoothly. Zhuo Xi then suggested that Jianrong give a signal to the brothers who worked hard to guard at the foot of the mountain and inform them to come straight to the top of the mountain. This snake pit is definitely a natural barrier.


    However, after crossing the snake pit and reaching the other side of the mountain, Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan were silly. This mountain is amazing. The other side of the mountain is actually a whole cliff. This means that they worked hard to climb to the top of the mountain and thought they could find a way to make a living. Unexpectedly, it was also another dead end.


    Several of the slaves who followed him covered their faces in despair and wept. There are pursuers at the foot of the mountain and cliffs in front. There''s really no way to live.


    But it''s not Zhuo Xi''s style to give up when you encounter difficulties. She never gives up until the last second.


    Zhuo Xi looked around, pointed to the opposite mountain and asked Jing Yuan, "what mountain is that?"


    "I don''t know. No one has ever been here."


    She estimated that there was a drop of more than one meter from the platform here to the platform of the mountain opposite. It seemed that there was about fifteen or six meters between the two. "Jing Yuan, with your skills, can you fly to the opposite side in one breath? Or are there any lightness skills in the army better than you? "


    Jing Yuan was elated by her cry of "Jing Yuan". She estimated and shook her head and said, "there needs to be a fulcrum in the middle."


    "Only one fulcrum?" She confirms.


    "Yes, just need a fulcrum to borrow strength."


    She asked Zi Ran again, "is the rope that just pulled us up still there?"


    Zi Ran replied, "there are enough ropes. I have estimated to climb when I go up the mountain, so I brought a lot of ropes. But it''s too far from here to there. No matter how good your lightness skills are, you can''t fly over. "


    If you can provide a fulcrum, someone can fly over and build a cable bridge. She has a bold idea. However, what fulcrum comes from the cliff in mid air? I wish I had a plane. She sighed in her heart.

 Chapter 18

    "What else did you carry?"


    "Wu Xing, you are responsible for the materials. You ask them to carry all the materials."


    "Yes!"


    After a while, all the supplies they brought were piled up. Zhuo Xi came forward to check. Sure enough, there were many ropes, some simple climbing tools, torches, flints, all kinds of opening tools, other weapons, some dry food, etc. suddenly, her eyes lit up and there was a small sheepskin tent. It seems to be prepared for his highness, who lives in dignity. Can fly? Her brain hole immediately opened.


    She immediately found Ma San, "Uncle Ma, I don''t know who among you can weave a cane basket?"


    Ma San replied, "we are all used to working. Many people can make it. I don''t know what kind of basket the girl wants to make?"


    She gestured, "about so big and so tall."


    "No problem."


    She also asked Wu Xing to take some scholars to dig a lot of soil on the ground, and put water on the ground. Wu Xing watched her pour the water from her skin bag into the soil. She was very distressed and couldn''t help reminding her. Zhuo Xi said carelessly, "if life is gone, what''s the use of keeping this water?"


    Everyone was full of fog and didn''t know what she was going to do.


    A small soldier appeared at the end of the snake pit and shouted, "report, Zhao Tingbu has started climbing."


    They must go straight to the target along their new road up the mountain. There is only one road, and there is no time to create another one to confuse their sight. It is estimated that they will arrive soon. Zhuo Xi knows that we have to race against time now. She took down the bottom of the sheepskin tent and tied eight slightly thinner ropes along the four sides. Soon, Ma San and they made up Teng basket and pulled it over. She asked everyone to help remove all the torch heads. She painted the inside of the Teng basket with the wet red soil on the ground, picked four short swords from the weapon pile, placed them in a "well" shape at the bottom of the basket, and poured a layer of water on the soil. Finally, she tied the eight ropes evenly around the Teng basket.


    She stood up and looked at the simple hot air balloon with satisfaction. She asked some soldiers to hold the tent with branches, while others put all the torch heads into the basket to light it. The torch flared up. She breathed out and looked around at the people looking at her. These people did not understand what she was doing, but they all gave her a look of trust and hope.


    She looked at Jing Yuan and asked, "which of you has the best lightness skill?"


    Jianrong stood up and said, "it should have been the marquis. Now he is injured, and his subordinates can do it for him."


    "There are more than five feet between the two cliffs. If you have two ropes, I will give you a fulcrum in the middle. Are you sure you can reach the other bank safely?"


    Jianrong replied without hesitation, "subordinates can." He had heard Zhuo Xi''s question about Jing Yuan before. He also evaluated it and said with confidence. He already knew Zhuo Xi''s intention to let him take the rope, but he was very curious about how she could provide a fulcrum between the two cliffs.


    "Well, would you like to try?" The lives of hundreds of people here are on you.


    "My subordinates are willing!"


    "OK." Lightness skill or something. Zhuo Xi is really powerless and can only rely on others. She ordered Ziran to tie two long ropes, one end to Jianrong''s waist and wrist, and the other end to a strong trunk. This not only facilitates him to carry the rope, but also prevents him from falling.


    The soldier raised the hot-air balloon slowly. Zhuo Xi ran over and saw that the fire was too strong. He quickly picked out two torch heads with branches. The fire was smaller and added a little later until the fire was adjusted. The hot air balloon was successfully suspended in the air. The surrounding crowd made all kinds of exclamations.


    "Jianrong, try it. Is it powerful enough?"


    Jianrong flew up and stepped on it. He saw that the hot-air balloon just fell and rose again. Jianrong jumped down with great joy, "girl, no problem."


    Zhuo Xi saw that she was almost there, so she took the rope and led the hot-air balloon to the edge of the cliff. In order to reduce the height of the hot-air balloon, she deliberately pressed it on the basket. But still didn''t wait to let go, but his arm was pulled into a person''s arms.


    Jing Yuan said, "do you know that it was dangerous just now?" Almost fell.


    She said, "don''t worry, but can you lower the height of the basket a little?"


    As soon as Jing Yuan saw it, he picked up the stones on the ground and threw them out. He hit the basket frame. Sure enough, the height of the basket decreased a little.


    "Shoot another one in this direction." Zhuo Xi consciously picked up a stone and pointed to the opposite direction to give it some impetus to move forward.


    Jing Yuan shot a stone in the horizontal direction without saying a word.


    In the eyes of people who were surprised and almost worshipped, the hot-air balloon slowly floated to the opposite bank with the strength of stones and wind. Almost in the middle, Jing Yuan ordered, "Jianrong is now."


    Jianrong was already ready to go. When he heard the command, he jumped up and jumped to the middle. His body was a little slow. His right foot was clicking on the tent. He landed on the other bank smoothly.


    All the people here cheered. Finally there is hope for life.


    At this time, the soldier reported again, "Zhao Ting''s Department has been halfway up the mountain."


    Jianrong found several strong trees on the other bank, untied the rope from her body, and tied the knot one high and one low according to the way Zhuo Xi gave her to save the rope. With a sigh of joy, Yi stepped on the rope and reached the opposite bank, juxtaposing the third and fourth ropes with the first two ropes one high and one low.


    A new test has begun.


    She had differences with Jing Yuan for the first time.


    In her opinion, those slaves were old, weak, sick and disabled, and should go first. Jing Yuan asked the soldiers to go first. To put it bluntly, he discriminated against slaves. The situation was urgent. Ma San watched as they were about to quarrel. He quickly came to round the scene, which meant that more than half of the soldiers performing official duties were allowed to pass. On the one hand, they explored the way and protected the Marquis to leave first. Then the slaves began to fly over the cliff, and some of the remaining soldiers were cut off. Both of them thought it was feasible, so they acted separately.


    Those bright and dark guards with excellent martial arts leaped over directly on the rope. Some soldiers and slaves with poor lightness skills were left. Zhuo Xi asked them to tie ropes on their waist and armpits respectively. The ropes were sleeved on the four ropes across the cliffs on both sides to prevent someone from falling and one of the ropes from breaking suddenly. The courageous man pulled the rope barefoot and passed quickly. The timid man was so scared that his legs were soft that he almost got through by lying on the rope.


    This kind of ferry takes a lot of time and can only be passed by one person at a time. So when the slaves were half gone, Zhuo Xi heard a fierce fight on the other side of the snake pit. It seems that Zhao Ting led the army to attack, and encountered the elite soldiers of the 300 Baihui army who stopped on the hillside. Bai Hui''s elite soldiers fought and retreated. Many people fell into the snake pit and were immediately swallowed by the snakes. The rest knew the situation in the pit and dared not retreat. They stood on the edge of the snake pit and fought with Zhao Jun, but they were outnumbered, and gradually the whole army was destroyed. Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi are on the other side of the river, and their eyes are splitting.


    When Zhao Bing saw the shadow of people on the other side of the pit in the dark, he excitedly rushed into the pit and wanted to come to the other side, but he didn''t know to step into hell. The snakes wound around each majestic figure and slowly became shorter. After Zhao Bing died, dozens of soldiers took a picture on the ground with torches. They were scared and ran back quickly. Zhao Ting didn''t know who was behind, so he cut down several talents who took the lead to calm the crowd. After understanding the current terrain, he looked at the Guang''an Hou close to the opposite of the snake pit, as if he saw that the future prosperity and wealth were far away from him, and he was very unwilling to look at the pit and sigh.


    By this time, the slaves had all flown. Zhuo Xi looked at the white Hui army''s elite soldiers who had died in the war opposite the whole army, and suddenly changed his mind. He called the rear army commander Wu Xing and told them to cancel their mission and fly across immediately. One by one they could escape. Wu Xing objected and immediately asked Hou ye and Zhuo Xi to leave quickly.


    Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Yuan and said, "there''s no time. Let them go quickly. If they don''t go, I won''t go. "


    Jing Yuan reluctantly said to Wu Xing, "do as Xi''er said."


    Wu Xing then ordered the remaining 200 soldiers to fly over the cliff first: "Lord Hou cares about our safety, let me withdraw first."


    Time was so urgent that the soldiers had no time to express their gratitude and flew across quickly.


    Zi Ran, Jian Rong and Jian Yi were already at the other end of the cliff. Seeing that the Duke and the Duke were delayed, they had to fly back and stand beside them.


    Zhao Ting thought of a way in his extreme unwillingness. He asked people to put all the torches in their hands into the pit, and some tung oil used to soak the torches into the pit. The snakes fled everywhere, and the fire gradually covered the whole pit. Zhao Ting waited for the fire in the pit to go out and cool down, urging the soldiers to make a detour. So many soldiers were bitten and poisoned by snakes running around the fire. So the man snake fought fiercely in the fire again. Almost stepping on the bodies of his companions and snakes, Zhao Ting led the remaining troops to Jingyuan.


    "Hou ye, I finally saw you." Zhao Ting said with a smile.


    Jing Yuan also pretended to be surprised and said, "General Zhao worked hard. General Zhao came all the way to see Ben Hou. I don''t know what''s important?"


    Zhao Ting said in a deep voice, "the general is ordered to invite the Marquis to have a chat in the palace!"


    Jing Yuan also said in a deep voice, "the Marquis has reported to the king. After he takes back the coffin of his mother''s imperial concubine and is buried with his father, he will immediately return to the palace to reply to the king. Why is general Zhao so anxious?"


    At this time, Zhao Ting saw the rope behind them. He knew it was not too late, and he no longer said to him, "in this case, the general offended!"


    He waved and several generals rushed forward behind him. Zi Ran waited for him to fly and stop him and tangle with them. Zhao Ting had a steady stream of soldiers. Jing Yuan, Zhuo Xi and Wu Xing all joined the battle. Wu Xing saw that there were still more than ten soldiers who could fly across in the future. If they dragged on, I was afraid that the Marquis would be more dangerous, so he urgently ordered, "Sun Hu and Wang Ying listened to the order and tried their best to intercept the enemy and cover the Marquis''s retreat!"


    Zi Ran would also come over, fight and retreat to the Marquis, and said loudly, "Marquis, our main elite have successfully flown across, marquis, let''s go."


    As soon as the more than ten soldiers joined the battle, the pressure on Zhuo Xi was much less. She looked at the situation and knew that Jing Yuan would be implicated if she didn''t go again. Besides, she didn''t want to sacrifice herself to save everyone, so she had no reason to object. So he leaned close to Jingyuan and said to the others, "if you have good lightness skills, follow immediately." She hugged Jing Yuan''s waist, "Lord, I''ll give you my life."


    Jing Yuan smiled, grabbed her and went to the opposite side of the cliff. When Zi Ran saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief. After killing a Zhao soldier in front of him, he found a gap, dragged a soldier on his side and flew over. Then Jianrong took Wu Xing who had been injured earlier. Finally, Jian Yi flew over with a man. As soon as he landed, he immediately went to Wu Xing and asked brother Wu how his injury was. It turned out to be Xiaohu. His full name is sun Hu.


    There are also two generals with good lightness skills over Zhao ting. They catch up with Wang Ying when they see it, and the one named Wang Ying is being knocked down in front of the cliff by Zhao Bing and slashes the rope tied to the tree. The two Zhao generals'' breath was not stable, and they wanted to step on the rope. Unexpectedly, the rope was broken, so they had to scream and fall off the cliff.


    Zhao Tingxing was so angry that he could only really look at the cliff and sigh. He didn''t understand how his opponent tied the rope to the opposite cliff. Remembering that he captured Jing Yuan with 30000 troops today, who was only 2500 guards, he even let him retreat. Not to mention Jing Yuan himself, he didn''t even touch his core guards. What''s more, I heard that they actually carried nearly 100 old and weak slaves. Since he went to the battlefield with a gun at the age of 12, he has experienced more than 100 battles. Looking back on the resistance encountered in today''s attack, he has almost never heard of or seen some tactics, especially the arrows wrapped in fire oil, and the underwater spears. His men once caught the defeated soldiers guarding the building. After inquiry, they knew that these arrangements were temporary arrangements a few hours ago. It can be seen that his mind is far from his apparent laziness.


    Although the Marquis of Guang''an was in charge of the Baihui army tiger amulet given to him by the former king, he always said he was ill. He allowed 100000 troops to live and die in Liangzhou in the northwest, ignored it, and only Yu Po, the general under his account, controlled and stationed to protect the border city. In the first few years, Yu Po made a request for military pay every year, and Jing Yuan handed it all over to the Shangshu Pavilion and the former Emperor. In recent years, I know I''m not valued by the marquis. I''m a little discouraged. In addition to routine work, I don''t even bother to fold. It is said that half of the 100000 troops have become farmers and are self-sufficient. Now the former king has just been ill and has just entered the mausoleum. Now he can''t wait to seize his troops. It seems that there is something unknown behind him. I''ve never heard that this Guang''an Marquis has the ability to manage the army and arrange troops before. Unexpectedly, he was defeated so badly in this short battle for the first time. He sighed and went back down the mountain. Fortunately, this time it was a secret order to make him act. It should not be too difficult for him in the open.


    Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan stood at the top of the new mountain. Hundreds of soldiers and slaves who survived the disaster knelt on the ground, saying "Lord Hou is a thousand years old". The soldiers shouted loudly, "the Marquis is invincible and invincible." Since the news that the first king was seriously ill came out of the palace, they were secretly dispatched to the suburbs of Beijing. They had been hiding in Furong villa for several months and had long been ready to fight with death. When they were about to fight today, they learned that they were going to fight 30000 enemy troops with 2500 people. They not only thought that they had no hope of survival, but even the Marquis was very likely to be unable to protect themselves. Once the Marquis is captured, the 100000 brothers in the northwest do not know what will happen to them. Unexpectedly, the Marquis and the zhuoxi girl around him were so wise that they successfully got out of danger.


    As soon as Jing Yuan raised his hand and motioned them to get up, he turned and faced the crater just full of blood and crisis. Looking at the back of Zhao ting and his soldiers coming down the mountain on the opposite cliff, he felt that everything he had just experienced in the opposite hill was gradually gone away like a dream and full of unreality. The struggle between man and man and the struggle between man and nature is all a movable type. Thinking of his rare gaffe today, he couldn''t help but want to hug the beauty again to calm the fear and concern he had never had before. He fished for it with a long hand, but found it empty.


    Turning around, she saw that Zhuo Xi was surrounded by Ma San and others. She was accepting their gratitude like a tide. Her little face flickered bright and dark in the flicker of the torch, filled with the most sincere smile.


    Suddenly, Jing Yuan coughed coldly when he saw Xiao Meng holding her hand.


    The voice didn''t disturb Zhuo Xi in the crowd, but it reached the ears of the serviceman Zi Ran. Zi Ran immediately shook his tail and ran over, "Lord, now we are safe for the time being. Please show me how to settle now."


    He looked at the starry sky and said, "at this time, let''s have a rest on the spot. You arrange several people to check the surrounding environment, and then arrange several people to find some food and water, and then find the way down the mountain when it''s dawn tomorrow."


    "Yes." Zi Ran took orders to give orders.


    Wu Xing dragged the sick body to plead guilty. "Damn my subordinates, all the materials he had carried before......" there was nothing else except portable torches, flints and weapons.


    Jing Yuan raised his hand to stop him from saying, "Ben Hou understands that you don''t have to worry. Speaking of it, your department has made great contributions to the materials prepared today. Go and find Yu Liang to register the list, and I will reward you in the future. " That tent rope or something really saved everyone''s lives.


    Wu Xing was very happy, "thank you, marquis. It''s just that I''m afraid of wronging the Marquis tonight. "


    "No harm, you go."


    "Yes."


    Jing Yuan glanced at Zhuo Xi not far away, and his eyes stuck on her and couldn''t come back.


    Wu Xing also looked back at him, looked at her again, and sighed.


    After taking a few steps, he saw Shu Yue coming up, "young master, are you okay?"


    Wu Xing frowned, "you are Miss Liu''s personal servant girl." Shouldn''t we be with her?


    Shu Yue was also wronged, "but what did the young lady say? They have military aircraft to discuss important matters. I''m not allowed to come near." The young lady is with the Marquis all day. She doesn''t know when she can serve her. She can only approach Zhuo Xi when she thinks of her.


    "It doesn''t matter now. Go and ask her what she needs." What do girls always do in a pile of men? Always have a girl with you. In case of any inconvenience, you can cover one or two.


    "Yes." Shu Yue reluctantly leaves Wu Xing and walks to Zhuo Xi.


    The Xiang Ma three and others got the instruction to rest in place and gradually dispersed to look for a flat place. Some people spontaneously went together to look for wild fruits and water. Xiao Meng took Zhuo Xi''s hand and said, "sister, you promised me to follow you. I will follow you from today on."


    Zhuo Xi thought of what had happened before, scraped his nose and said, "no problem. But when adults have something to discuss, you can''t stay with me. "


    Xiao Meng said, "OK! However, Xiao Meng is a little hungry now. "


    Zhuo Xi took Xiaobai out of her sleeve, "come on, have you seen it? Its name is Xiaobai. You can let it take you to find food. Are you afraid? "


    Xiao Meng happily stroked it with his hand, shook his head and said he was not afraid.


    Xiaobai raised her eyes to see Xiaomeng and Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi nodded Xiaobai''s head, "Xiaobai, look, I found you a new friend. He will play with you in the future. You won''t be bored."


    I''ll play with him, okay? Xiaobai turned her head proudly, but saw Shu Yue hiding behind Zhuo Xi with the sound of "ah". These humans are the most annoying. Every time I see it, I have to catch it. This little Meng looks different from them. Well, let him play with me. Thinking of this, Xiaobai nodded.


    Zhuo Xi smiled. Sure enough, the little boy is different. Xiaobai also hopes that more humans will be friendly to it. She put Xiaobai into Meng''s hand and said solemnly, "Xiaomeng, Xiaobai always hides in my sleeve pocket. From today on, you help me take good care of it and can''t let others bully it." Xiaobai rolled his eyes. I''ve always been the only one who bullies others. When is it their turn to bully me? Er, except the marquis.


    Xiao Meng happily held it and gently stroked its head, "Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, I like you so much."


    Zhuo Xi felt cold for a while. The child confessed his rhythm as soon as he came up. It''s too warm.


    Qumeng stood up and said to Zhuo Xi, "sister, let''s find something to eat."


    Zhuo Xi was about to nod when a man ran over and said to Zhuo Xi, "girl, we found a lot of wild fruits, but we didn''t dare to eat them, hehe," he touched his head, "can you trouble your little white snake to distinguish between poisonous and non-toxic for us?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded to Meng, "go with him."


    That''s nice. Xiaobai even saves her strength to walk.

 Chapter 19

    Zhuo Xi turned to face Shu Yue, who was still trembling slightly, and was surprised to see that she was still holding her baggage. Hurriedly took it, "Shu Yue, you are really great."


    Shu Yue sniffed, "thank you for saving me. I know I can''t help the young lady. I can only take good care of the young lady''s burden. "


    She hugged Shu Yue and knew she was frightened. She ignored her too much. A pinch of baggage, but also a surprise. She has always slept badly at night. She is worried that she doesn''t have the small medicine pillow she was used to a few days ago. Unexpectedly, she casually explained that Shu Yue even stuffed the medicine pillow into her bag until now.


    "Come on, you go there to eat some food first, and I''ll come over."


    She took the baggage to Jingyuan, cleaned up the wound for him, wrapped up a few wounded soldiers with medicine, found Shu Yue''s position and crowded with the crowd to find food.


    The slaves spontaneously found a lot of wild fruits, piled them into a hill in an open space, and asked the soldiers to come and eat together. After life and death, soldiers and slaves reached an unprecedented agreement. Xiaobai is directing Xiaomeng to separate the non-toxic fruit from the toxic fruit. Several soldiers found several bamboo rats in the dark and let everyone who has worked hard all day taste the meat. In order to illuminate and prevent wild animals, they spontaneously formed several circles and lit a bonfire.


    Zhuo Xi and Shu Yue ate some fruit and lay on the grass on the top of the mountain. The moon is bright and the stars are sparse. The sky without pollution shrouds the world like a pure black curtain. A few bright stars seemed to be within reach. This sense of smallness under the sky is most likely to remind people of their hometown and the past. Zhuo Xi entered the night since crossing, setting off the silhouette of a person standing under the tree. He didn''t know his look in the dark and his ending in a daze.


    She walked in the direction of dense crowd and flickering fire. She felt that she was greatly stimulated and needed to divert her attention from the busy place. Although Shu Yue didn''t kiss her, she never thought that Shu Yue had such a deep mind under her soft and fragile surface, and she didn''t find it until the last minute. How can this be worthy of her countless killer identity in the 21st century? If people in the 21st century know that they have been cheated by an ancient for so long, don''t they laugh? Compared with her, the man named wolf is nothing. Are the ancients so good at acting?


    God pity, let her reborn in this girl. In fact, she just wanted to live again, without killing, conspiracy and doubt, and live her life frankly and vigorously. Therefore, she won the trust of the Marquis with honesty and eliminated the biggest repressive force she might face. After completing her one-year appointment with him, she could fully open her heart and embrace this beautiful world wholeheartedly. Her luxury flagship store, flagship store... Although she doesn''t write a single word now, it''s a matter of minutes to earn a golden mountain and a silver mountain with her ability. Who could have thought that it was only a long time before she almost died after she rolled away under the conspiracy of a little maid? Thinking of this, she felt that she was too shameless.


    She suddenly looked at the crowd and stopped again. Just now she said that there were spies in the crowd. I came to this world out of thin air. I have no goal, no task, no past, and no hatred. Is it so difficult to believe in the world like an ordinary person?


    The right hand was held by the other hand, "what''s the matter, Xi''er? Have something on your mind? " Didn''t you just see her talking to the little maid? Jing Yuan held her hand, as if he had thought about it thousands of times, so naturally stretched out his hand to hold the full warmth.


    Zhuo Xi felt cold and took out his palm. Brother, don''t come out and have an affair. It seems that you are really affectionate. Xi''er didn''t know when he started calling. How come the more he called, the more comfortable she seemed to hear?


    "Hou Ye is free to wander here. Why don''t you think about how to get down the mountain tomorrow? Zhao Ting may not give up. He will send someone around the mountain to search. With so many of us, the goal is too big. " It''s better to lead the spy to inform him of his exposure.


    "The Marquis has sent someone to explore the road all night. It will be known by dawn."


    "By the way, there''s one thing I want to tell you." I don''t know when she started. She didn''t drop her book bag, nor did she match you and me with the marquis. Since the Marquis didn''t object, she really liked this equal way of dialogue. She told him about Shu Yue and another hidden spy.

 Chapter 20

    He pondered for a moment, "Ben Hou always thought it was Wu Xing. If that man is not Wu Xing, there must be someone else. "


    "...% £¤ &%" Zhuo Xi wanted to be rude. She said so much. Did he only pay attention to the details of the man she said that night? That''s not the point, okay? The point is that there are spies in your house.


    "Now that Shu Yue has been exposed, the man will find a way to spread the news."


    "You want to lead the snake out of the cave?"


    "Well, we..." she thought of a plan and told him.


    "No!" He denied it without even thinking about it.


    "Listen to me, Shu Yue was just hypnotized by me. She didn''t know she was exposed. As long as we give her a chance... "If she gets it, she will find a way to tell that person.


    "No, you have to put yourself at risk. Ben Hou will never agree."


    Zhuo Xi shrugged. "Forget it, whatever you want." If the man is not found out, they will not be safe for a day.


    As soon as he waved his hand, Jianrong jumped out, "go and check."


    "Yes." Jianrong is very depressed. It is clear that he has changed from dark Wei to Ming Wei. How can he change back to dark Wei? Everyone knows him now. How can he find out? Besides, in fact, he thinks Miss Zhuo Xi''s idea is very good. He just takes a little risk and won''t really let Shu Yue succeed. Isn''t Hou willing now?


    He looked for Ziran with a bitter face, but they discussed it.


    Jing Yuan refused to let Zhuo Xizhao leave on the grounds of letting her see her injury. Unable to get rid of Jing Yuan, she had to find a flat place, lie down together, take out a medicine pillow and get ready to sleep. Now she has no mood to look at the stars. She really wants to have a good sleep and continue to meet the challenge tomorrow. She didn''t know what kind of danger was hidden in the mountain. Although there was no pressure to pursue soldiers when going up the mountain during the day, the mountains were often full of accidents.


    But Jing Yuan sighed in surprise, "the moon is so round!"


    What did the ancients wear? Shouldn''t they have long been used to this completely pollution-free and light-free night sky? To whom do you show this surprised expression? Did you wear it from the 30th century? Zhuo Xi despised him, turned over, closed her eyes and didn''t want to talk to him.


    Jing Yuan was really excited. He had never looked up at the sky from such an angle. The sky was shrouded, and the stars looked down on him like eyes. Eager to share this novel experience, he found Zhuo Xi with her back.


    Looking at the back of her head and the pillow under her neck, he wanted to grab it. When did this woman remember to bring her pillow?


    He pushed her. "Hello..."


    "Don''t make a noise. I don''t sleep well. I''m finally sleepy. I have to go to sleep quickly, or I''ll lose sleep." Zhuo Xi murmured.


    What the hell is insomnia? Jing Yuan said, "then turn around." Ben Hou will watch you sleep and never disturb you.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t respond. Jing Yuan thought and climbed up to the opposite side of her. The pillow blocked part of his sight, and he couldn''t help pillowing his head. That''s what it''s like to sleep together. Jing Yuan felt that his careful liver was about to tremble. Looking at her long eyelashes in front of him, he couldn''t help coming forward and sticking his lips up.


    "Pa!" Zhuo Xi slapped him in the face and said, "how come there are mosquitoes?" Let you dare to kiss my mother again?


    Jing Yuan''s face was confused and forced. The first slap in his life was beaten as a mosquito? He stroked his face and lay down again. His forehead was quietly close to her forehead. He dared not do it again and closed his eyes obediently.


    Zhuo Xi slept until dawn without a dream all night, and startled when she opened her eyes. Jing Yuan stared at her with big eyes, and his head squeezed half of her pillow, almost squeezing her down. What is the black crow around? She held up her upper body and swept her eyes. I went and surrounded myself with Jing Yuan. Who is the man in black? Why is he still facing them with his back?


    Jing Yuan coughed and Zi Ran immediately put his head in from outside. "Hou ye, Miss Liu, are you awake?" His face is so cheap that people can''t wait to punch him. What''s the matter with his smile?


    "Well, come in." Jing Yuan nodded.


    What come in what come in? Zhuoxi did not enter their rhythm at all.


    So Zi Ran took a handful of water with the lotus leaf and squeezed the people in black into the circle. He was followed by two bodyguards who each held a lotus leaf. "Lord Hou, cough, miss six, the conditions in the mountain are poor, so we can only wrong you two." wash one ''s face? Gargle? Zhuo Xi never thought that he had just experienced the great disaster of life and death, and he might continue to experience the great disaster of life and death in the future. Can this Marquis still show his high spectrum in the morning when he just woke up in the mountain?


    Er, but I can wash my face and gargle my mouth under such poor conditions. No one will refuse. Sure enough, it''s still a privilege! So Zhuo Xi quietly finished these two major events in the circle surrounded by people in black. After they were refreshed, these people in black left spontaneously. Zhuo Xi suddenly realized the role of these people in black after seeing the strange eyes of the guards and slaves outside.


    Everyone has prepared delicious food and drinking water. While eating, they listened to the report of the soldiers who came back from Pathfinder. Last night, a total of two small soldiers were sent in the three directions of East, West and North. There was a cliff in the south. After they came back, they all said that there was no road in the mountain, and they had to explore it by themselves to get out of the deep mountain. The top leadership still needed to decide which direction to go. However, the mountain was extremely steep, and I was afraid it was very dangerous to go down the mountain.


    Jing Yuan thought, "this mountain is connected with cangcui mountain in the East, reaches Sangu pass in the West and Heyong pass in the north. Let''s go to the North First, and then bypass Heyong pass in the West." Zhuo Xiqi said, are all the maps in his mind?


    It''s easy for the logistics supervisor to ask, "Lord Hou, now we have a large number of people, and it''s inevitable that we walk slowly in the mountains. It is nearly 300 kilometers to the West. It may take nearly a month to walk through mountains and rivers. If you take a rest in the official road or through the town, the mountain is not only difficult to travel, but also short of clothes and food. I''m afraid those people can''t insist. " He''s talking about the old and weak slaves of Ma San. The slaves were already overworked and malnourished. They were worried and afraid of climbing the mountain for days, and they couldn''t keep up with their diet. It was good to be able to hold on for a few days. They had to hold on for another half a month. There was really a problem.


    Jing Yuan said, "that''s your man. You''re responsible for handling it."


    "Please ask Ma San to come here." Zhuo Xi said.


    Ma San soon came to see Li. Zhuo Xi asked, "Uncle Ma, did you have a good rest yesterday?"


    "Thank you, miss. I''m used to working. It doesn''t matter if I work hard. "


    "No one walks on this mountain, and the mountain is steep. I''m afraid it''s difficult to go down the mountain. What are your plans? "


    "I''m just going to discuss it with the girl. We have no official documents. We are all fugitive slaves. If we go out of the mountain, there will be only one way out. We just experienced the catastrophe of life and death yesterday. Our heart is sad. We just want to spend the rest of our life safely. Therefore, after much deliberation and discussion, I decided to find a treasure land in the mountain these days, pile soil and cut wood, and build a house. If there is no accident, I will live here. " Ma San no longer hesitated and said all his plans.


    "Well, if you follow us, you will be in danger. But this mountain has never been inhabited, so we still need to find a safe place. Don''t be too far from the water source. "


    "Yes. It''s just that the Lord and miss zhuoxi saved their lives. I''m afraid they won''t repay them. They just wait for the next life to be cattle and horses. "


    "Don''t worry about it. If you''re all right. By the way, Xiao Meng said he would follow me. He is young and can''t help you. It''s better to let him come with me. "


    Ma thanked them again and again and stepped back to arrange for them to find the geomantic treasure land.


    Zhuo Xi turned to the core leading group again, "now we can only take one step at a time. Why don''t we go along the water source in the West and then bypass Heyong pass in the north? Security may be improved. " Walking along the water source does have many benefits. First, you don''t have to worry about the water source. Secondly, there are many foods near the water source. Third, having an abundant water source can solve personal hygiene problems and reduce the probability of disease. Finally, and most importantly, walking along the water source is not easy to get lost. To survive in the mountains, water, food and disease are the three major problems of human beings.


    After a discussion, they thought this method was feasible, so after they had enough to eat and drink, they began to dial. The slaves found their way.


    Mountain roads are difficult to mine, and many places have a slope of more than 45 degrees. Many people fall down without paying attention. Zhuo Xi offered a suggestion to the soldiers in the open road to open up the mountain road in a zigzag shape, so the accidents suddenly decreased sharply.


    Although Jing Yuan denied Zhuo Xi''s suggestion the night before, Zhuo Xi still watched Shu Yue who woke up and didn''t realize what had happened the night before. She followed Wu Xing''s footsteps. It seems that Wu Xing didn''t expose her. When everyone stopped to have a rest, Zhuo Xi let Xiao Meng and Zi ran together, then called Shu Yue, ignored Jing Yuan''s warning eyes and said, "Shu Yue, go and get me some water to drink. Zi Ran, after all, they serve the Lord. How can I bother them? You''d better stay with me. Brother, you have plenty of time. You don''t have to be greedy for this dynasty. " She squeezed her eyebrows and eyes. Shu Yue was shy and blushed as if she were going to drip water.


    She bowed her head and took the bamboo tube to hold water.


    Jing Yuan came forward and asked in a low voice, "what are you going to do?"


    "Don''t worry, I know." Zhuo Xi gave him a soothing smile. She whispered in his ear, "go and call Wu Xing."


    Shu Yue came back with water. After drinking the water for a while, Zhuo Xi covered her stomach and shouted, "Shu Yue, my stomach hurts. You accompany me to change clothes."


    Shu Yue took Zhuo Xi to the woods. She took off her coat and covered the two bushes and said, "Miss, I''m waiting for you here." Zhuo Xi went behind her clothes.


    Zhuo Xi talked to her one by one. After a while, Shu Yue said, "Miss, the maid is also thirsty. The maid goes over there to get some water."


    "OK. Go. "


    Zhuo Xi opened her clothes. Sure enough, she saw Shu Yue walking in the opposite direction to the crowd. She followed Shu Yue to a dense forest from a distance. She saw Shu Yue holding her hand over her mouth and making a few cuckoo calls. Then a tit echoed, and then a man came out with his back to Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi didn''t see his face, but she felt that his figure was a little familiar. As she expected, the man was wearing the clothes of their ordinary escort of Bai Hui army.


    Shu Yue''s coat was left on the trees, only wearing Chinese clothes, which was an excellent hint for men. The man couldn''t help but come forward and hug Shu Yue, who was about to kiss him. Shu Yue blocked his mouth with his hand, "what are you doing! It''s easy to be found here! "


    He whispered, "moon, I think you''re going crazy. Just let me kiss for a while, just for a while."


    "No!" Shu Yue struggled for a while.


    In the man''s view, this struggle is to refuse and welcome.


    "Well, don''t kiss your face. They''ll find out." Shu Yue found that the struggle was fruitless, so she had to say reluctantly.


    "Well, I know." He opened Shu Yue''s Chinese clothes and kissed her madly. Shu Yue retreated under his attack until she hit a tree.


    Shu Yue gasped and whispered, "their route is to go along the West first, then go north, bypass Heyong pass, and go directly to the west water."


    "Well, I''ll send the book to the master in a minute."


    "It''s not too late. You''d better get down to business first."


    "My business now is you." The man has completely burned himself. He will stand up and enter when he lifts off his robe.


    Shu Yue thought she was going to see a live spring palace, but she was blindfolded by one hand.


    Then I heard a loud shout, "who?!"


    Wu Xing stepped forward with a knife. "Shu Yue, little tiger? It''s you?! "


    Zhuo Xi pulled down Jing Yuan''s hand to cover her eyes and turned around to protest angrily. Unexpectedly, he was too close. As soon as Zhuo Xi turned her head, her lips brushed his lips. For a moment, she actually forgot her anger. But the next second Jingyuan seemed to blush shyly. Zhuo Xi silently despised him. What are you shy about?


    Wu Xing over there was surprised. Zhuo Xi was also surprised to see Xiaohu''s face. She suddenly figured out some joints. For example, she saw that Xiaohu often stole food in the kitchen. I don''t know whether his acting is too good or his appearance is too harmless. Mother Wu, they don''t doubt him at all.


    Wu Xing said sadly, "Shu Yue, I always thought you liked me. I didn''t expect you..."


    Shu Yue quickly gathered up her clothes, ran over and knelt on the ground, "young master, I have always admired you."


    Xiaohu suddenly said with red eyes, "yue''er, don''t you say you want to be my woman in this life and the next life?"


    Shu Yue said, "what are you talking about? If you hadn''t forced me, how could I be bullied by you? " She turned to Wu Xing again, "young master, I was forced. I came to see you that night, but you weren''t there. He, he forced me... "


    Wu Xing said, "Shu Yue, you and I have been together for a long time. I don''t know your affection for me. I had already written a book and asked Mrs. Tai to accept you as my concubine. Too many things have happened recently. I don''t know if Mrs. Tai has added a letter. Now that you have done so, let it go. " He sighed sadly. Zhuo Xi is going to applaud his acting.


    "No, the young master, the maidservant, the maidservant knows that she is a withered flower and a withered willow. She can''t serve the young master, but the sun and the moon can learn from her heart to the young master!"


    "You must not say that since you are happy with him." Wu Xing turned to sun Hu and said, "Xiao Hu, you are my good brother. If you like moon, would you have told me no? Brothers, what can''t I do for you? " He was really wearing a huge green hat.


    Sun Hu was ashamed. "Brother Wu, I''m sorry for you. Please don''t blame the moon. "


    "I don''t blame her or you. Let''s go." With that, Wu Xing stroked the wound on his chest and left.


    Shu Yue still knelt down and begged, "no, young master, don''t drive me away. I only ask to be by your side, by the side of miss six. "


    Jing Yuan whispered to Zhuo Xi, "you arranged for a long time to let Wu Xing catch the traitors and complete them?"


    "Shh... Look."


    Shu Yue looked at Wu Xing''s back and cried for a long time. Sun Hu knelt down and hugged her. "Yue''er, good yue''er, I know I was bad last time. I liked you too much to force you. Believe me, I will treat you well. "


    Shu Yue clapped her hand on his face. "Do you know I''ve been waiting for him for seven years?!"


    Sun Hu stood up and pulled her up from the ground, "so what? You and he are not the same people, you can''t be together. "


    Shu Yue was silent. Sun Hu said the truth.


    She suddenly raised her head warily and looked at Zhuo Xi, "who!"


    It turned out that the branch stepped on by Zhuo Xi couldn''t support her weight, and it broke gently with a click. Jing Yuan hurriedly took Zhuo Xi and quietly went up a big tree next to him, hidden in the canopy. He happened to see a wild rabbit not far away and hit it on the leg with a stone in his backhand. It ran away quickly.


    Shu Yue was relieved to find that it was a rabbit.

 Chapter 21

    Jing Yuan whispered in Zhuo Xi''s ear, "her martial arts are not weak." His hand was still on Zhuo Xi''s waist. He suddenly felt that her idea of going to the theatre was really good. Jianyi and Jianrong, who were hiding among the trees, gave their master a disdainful look. In fact, they don''t understand. Since they have determined that the spies are the two of them, why not take them down immediately and interrogate them severely? I didn''t expect that this was the real reason, and I didn''t expect that the Marquis would not miss any opportunity to take advantage of it.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t open his hand for safety reasons. But now she has time to talk to him, because the dialogue between Shu Yue and sun Hu has become very quiet. She can''t hear clearly. She sees sun Hu holding her again, as if she had been coaxed for a while.


    Shu Yue was finally comfortable. She turned around and took a few steps with the help of sun Hu, but suddenly stopped, pointed to his nose and asked, "are you intentional? You deliberately invited the young master to come here and let the young master bump into us... "


    Sun Hu turned pale. "No, No." Once a woman doubts something, a man''s explanation will become weak, and it is easy to think of other things.


    "What are you worried about? Are you worried about my feelings for the young master? No, it''s not you, is it the prince? Did the prince ask you to test me? " She repeatedly questioned sun Hu, and the shelling made him even more pale. She waved her hand and denied powerlessly.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help but snap her fingers when she heard this, bingo! She''s right again! Catching traitors is a small matter, which makes the two of them fight with each other. Once they fight with each other, they are very likely to hear some real ¡õ¡õ¡õ. Jing Yuan and other three people were surprised to open their mouth into an O-shape. Was it the prince? It turned out that this amazing scene was hidden in this rape arrest drama? Jianyi couldn''t stand it and wanted to fight. Jing Yuan noticed and waved to stop them.


    Shu Yue''s chest fluctuated violently. Sun Hu had no color courage, but panicked to ask her to believe in herself. How can Shu Yue, who has just been lovelorn and seriously in an excited state, listen to him? She said aloud, "I don''t believe it, I don''t believe it. You give me the dark incense pill, and I''ll explain it to the prince myself. "


    Sun Hu hesitated and said, "I really haven''t done anything. If you want to explain to the prince, explain. In the future, I will ask the prince to promise you to me. I really...... "before he finished, the dark fragrant pill in his hand had been pressed down by Shu Yue''s first hand and fell to the ground with a slap. Sure enough, a smell overflowed with the red smoke. After a while, a goshawk swooped down from the sky, circled for a while and stopped on the branch in front of them.


    Shu Yue came forward and made a gesture. She untied something from the goshawk''s leg, put it on her knee and wrote. When she got up and was ready to tie things to its legs, a stone came and hit the goshawk''s head, and the goshawk died immediately.


    Jianyi and Jianrong had appeared on their sides, and they pulled out their weapons and attacked. Shu Yue left her things in her hand and fought back. Although she and sun Hu are not weak in martial arts, how can they allow these two dark guard experts? Soon they were captured and escorted to Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi. At the same time, they also picked up the letters that fell on the ground.


    Jing Yuan began to read. Sure enough, the head of the parchment letter read "crown prince Jin''an", which detailed their recent March route and destination, and politely said that they had attracted Wu Xing''s attention when they were talking secretly. They were afraid of revealing their identity and asked to evacuate first. Zhuo Xi came over and found that they were all seal characters she didn''t know very well. She looked at the ground and saw that Shu Yue had just written with a very thin carbon strip, which was probably wrapped in sheepskin stationery and tied to the feet of the Goshawk. The other party was really thoughtful. In order to send the letter in time, she was afraid that they could not find the writing tools, so they were directly ready.


    Jing Yuan looked at them and asked, "what else do you have to say?"


    Shu Yue''s face was like ashes. They both got stolen goods. Knowing that there was no way to live, they looked at each other and bit hard. Zhuo Xi shouted "bad", but it was too late. They were killed immediately.


    At this time, Jianyi and Jianrong were greatly impressed. If it weren''t for this seemingly simple strategy, even if they caught Shu Yue and sun Hu, I''m afraid they couldn''t ask anything.


    As soon as the spies were removed, several people were relaxed and shouted at them to continue on their way.


    They walked with each other in the mountains for nearly two days, but it seemed that they still couldn''t see the edge of the mountain. Some people began to despair and secretly began to complain. Fortunately, although there are many birds and animals in the mountains, they have also added a lot of nutritional protein for them, but a fierce beast has not met. It is estimated that it has been hidden quietly because of the large number of people.


    On the third day, the group walked, and the whole speed was much slower than that on the first day. Bai Hui''s army left nearly 500 soldiers, hugging Jing Yuan and so on. It was the turn of spring and summer. The sun was shining and the mountains were warm. I occasionally heard the sound of startled birds. However, suddenly, an arrow feather broke the picturesque calm.


    "Protect the Marquis!" The sleepy soldiers immediately braced up and quickly pulled out their weapons to fight against these uninvited guests. Although the mountain is steep, the trees are not very dense. Tibetans can walk everywhere. Soon a large number of enemy troops poured out. Someone recognized their costumes and shouted, "it''s heyongguan garrison!"


    It''s really a narrow road for friends. It seems that Wang Feng has received a secret report from Zhao ting. He didn''t lead the army to stop from the official road and directly broke into the mountain forest to search. A group of people immediately fought fiercely. Fortunately, this time, Wang Fengbu just sent a group of vanguard troops, the number of which was only about 100. They were soon wiped out by Bai Hui army, but there were dozens of casualties in Bai Hui army. Zhuo Xi treated the injured one by one and asked someone to carry them on a stretcher to find an open space for rectification.


    The military leading group began to meet again. "At present, the enemy came from the West and found our whereabouts. Wang Fengding will soon send most people to search the mountain." Yi, the military director, gave a brief report. The team was heading west, so it was easy to face them again.


    Zi Ran said, "or go straight north."


    "No, Wang Feng''s nest is in the north. Do you think he will pour out to encircle and suppress us?" Jian Yi said again.


    "His deputy general Chen Mo should stay at Heyong pass." Jianrong said.


    "That can only go east, but the East is contrary to our destination. I don''t know if we have to go around hundreds of miles."


    They walked for three days and did not know where they were. They could only judge the direction by the sun. This kind of blind military meeting based on speculation makes Zhuo Xi a little uneasy. Do they rely on speculation to command the army? Zhuo Xi thought inertia, "if only there were a map." You can see which direction you should go.


    Map? She suddenly remembered why the place names they said before looked so familiar. Yes, they looked familiar. She didn''t listen to these place names, but read them. She immediately took the baggage, found her little medicine pillow, found a thread on the edge, and immediately pulled out a thread. Pour out the medicine inside, and the sheepskin pillow cloth unfolds, which is the map she took out from the burial objects of the old emperor. At first, she was afraid that Shu Yue would sort out her belongings and find the map, so she turned it into a medicine pillow, and the excess parts at the corners were folded in by her. So when the map is opened, you can see a rectangular stitch with the largest area.


    She took the initiative to unfold the map in front of everyone. Jian Yi exclaimed, "the map of the former dynasty?"


    This is not the map at this time? Former?


    "How could you have a map of the former dynasty?" Jing Yuan asked.


    Zhuo Xi thought for a while. It can''t be well known that he came from the tomb of the former Emperor. He''d better tell Jing Yuan quietly. She motioned Jing Yuan to come and quietly told him the origin of the picture.


    His face changed in an instant, "you actually..."


    The rest of the people looked curious and wanted to hear the Lord''s gossip. Unexpectedly, the Lord spit out these three words, and there was no more text.


    Zhuo Xi quickly shifted her attention, "who can tell me where we are now?" In fact, the map is very simple. There is only the boundary line of the jurisdiction. There is no indication of mountains and rivers. All the geographical locations on the map are just plane irregular graphics, which she doesn''t understand at all.


    Sure enough, everyone lowered their heads and began to study fiercely. After discussion and calculation, a small point in a large blank was finally determined¡° This is it! " Zi Ran said with certainty.


    Zhuo Xi looked carefully and had to say that their conjecture accuracy was quite high. It was true that Heyong pass in the north, valley pass in the West and cangcui mountain in the East, but she still expressed a high degree of doubt, "how are you sure?" The cliff flying across when she came here is the boundary between mountains. At least there should be a line to show it. She can''t see the separation between mountains at all. Dare the person drawing this picture see that mountains are all connected? What''s the use of this map?


    Jing Yuan suddenly saw a bright light and pointed to a small black spot not far east of Heyong pass, "we can break through here."


    Zi Ran patted his thigh, "exactly. This is the return pass of the former dynasty. It was originally set up to prevent the invasion of the hehe nationality. Now, the east of Heyong pass is under the jurisdiction of our Dynasty. There has been no garrison here for more than 20 years. " He grew up with the marquis in front of the former Emperor since childhood. He was very familiar with the historical territory of the former dynasty.


    "If you go east, you''ll cross the green mountain." Didn''t you go back to the place of the incident?


    "It doesn''t matter. There should be no heavy troops guarding the cangcui mountain now, and we will not meet the imperial mausoleum Garrison when we go around the north of the cangcui mountain. Out of the mountain all the way East, you can go directly to the return pass. "


    "Yes! I''ll tell you now. "


    So without delay, the party went east again. But after half a day''s work, the sky gradually darkened.


    A small soldier in the back panicked and ran up, "report to the Marquis, Wang Feng''s army is less than five miles behind." The pursuer doesn''t have to open the way. His feet are fast.


    "How many people are there?"


    "About five or six hundred people."


    Jian Yi made a quick decision, "Sir, you take Miss Zhuo Xi and Xiao Meng first. My subordinates led the remaining officers and men of Bai Hui army to fight to the death with them! "


    Jing Yuan raised his eyes and looked into the distance for a moment. He said in a cold voice, "it''s not time to fight to the death. All the soldiers listen to the order!" He suddenly gave a loud drink, and everyone was so frightened that he knelt down. Only Zhuo Xi looked at the valley in the distance and muttered, "it''s a good place for ambush."


    As soon as Yi''s eyes lit up, Jing Yuan said loudly, "there is a canyon ahead. We set an ambush in front. It''s not difficult to win more with less!"


    "Yes!" All the officers and men could not help but speed up their steps. They soon reached the valley and began to prepare according to the arrangement of Jianyi.


    After a while, they saw a lot of people in the distance. When they went to the deep valley, they easily made a gesture, and all kinds of big stones they had prepared rolled down from both sides. This is the first time Zhuo Xi has seen this primitive way of fighting with her own eyes. There is no excitement in her imagination, only nervous expectation. None of them knows how many enemies can be killed or injured by such rolling stones, and how strong the remaining combat effectiveness of the enemy is. After several days of long journey, the combat effectiveness of the former side has been greatly weakened, but the other side is energetic and well armed. They could only roll boulders down the valley, hoping to weaken the enemy''s combat effectiveness as much as possible.


    Zhuo Xi watched the mole ant like people at the bottom of the valley die in the boulder. She couldn''t help feeling pity, not for the smallness and fragility of human life, but for them. They didn''t die in the real battle to kill the enemy, but in the civil war of the royal family and in the hands of their compatriots.


    Facts have proved that although it is the most primitive means, its lethality is also huge. Such a crazy smash, whether small or large, the other party has indeed killed and injured more than half. Bai Hui''s troops poured out from the trees on both sides of the canyon, stepped on the bones of the enemy who had been smashed into flesh and mud, and fought with the surviving but frightened enemy.


    The victory was obvious. Bai Huijun won a huge victory at the cost of only a few injuries, and captured many weapons and arrow feathers. He went on bravely into the dark night on the other side of the valley.

 Chapter 22

    The night in the mountains and forests is always dangerous. With the experience of the previous nights, people consciously formed a circle and lit a bonfire. Fifteen soldiers took turns on duty, five in each shift, to prevent the sneak attack of wild animals. In addition, there are still several hostages, and the front and rear are closely monitored at the same time.


    Zhuo Xi was with Xiao Meng and little white snake at night. Jing Yuan didn''t find the chance to warm Xiang and soft Huai at all. At the moment, he stared at Xiao Meng''s sleeping face and was about to burst out fire. Although he and Xiao Meng occupy both sides of Zhuo Xi, after all, there are minor children nearby, so he can only sleep honestly. He had completely forgotten how his first slap came from.


    The next night after that day, Zi Ran called a group of bodyguards disguised as people in black to form a circle to block everyone''s sight, which was strongly opposed by Zhuo Xi. She said that the bodyguards would climb the mountain in the daytime and have no rest at night. In the long run, they would be out of strength. After the compromise of all the people, they agreed to let these dark people stand guard after the three people sleep and one hour before they wake up, so as to keep the Duke''s privacy. In the middle, they also go to sleep. Zhuo Xi wanted to make a noise. The Marquis was surrounded by them in the name of protection. What privacy is there?


    However, tonight everyone was in a panic and couldn''t sleep, because the enemy found a trace again, and I don''t know when the next battle will attack suddenly. Zhuo Xi also tossed and turned and couldn''t sleep. She can well understand the confusion of pursuing soldiers after being at a loss. She heard someone get up and walk around because they couldn''t sleep. Someone coughed and whispered. She sat up, sighed and felt a bamboo flute from her waist. When she was bored in the mountains, she happened to see a bamboo that was very suitable for making a flute, so she made one by herself, but she heard the enemy''s attack in time, so she had to put it away in a hurry.


    She put the bamboo flute to her mouth and tried the sound. Although several sounds were slightly different, she took out a small sword and cut it, barely making up eight sounds. She played the famous song "high mountains and flowing water" handed down from generation to generation. The flute sound drifted faintly, long and graceful, which deeply soothed the anxious hearts of these people in the dark and boundless night.


    In the middle of the night, a sudden rush of footsteps broke the sound of the ground. Some soldiers woke up alertly and Jing Yuan jumped up. The soldiers stopped outside a group of people in black who also jumped up, "report! Enemy found five miles west! The number of people in darkness at night is unknown. "


    As soon as Jing Yuan waved his hand, Zi Ran immediately issued an order, "all the officers and men listen to the order, the enemy is attacking, and they are in a hurry!"


    Immediately there was a sound of standing in line, but there was no noise or yawn. It can be seen that Bai Hui''s army is strict in governing the army on weekdays. They get up, stand up and move forward immediately.


    Zhuo Xi went to Meng with sleepy eyes and followed Jing Yuan deep and shallow.


    Because the enemy was too close, the road ahead was very slow. After soliciting Jingyuan''s order, Jianyi sent Yu Liang and a hundred elite to ambush on the way to intercept the enemy and buy time for Jingyuan''s evacuation. Another half of them were separated to make another way to disperse the pursuers, led by Wu Xing. The rest of us continue to move forward. In order not to be found by the enemy, they even put out their torches and could only advance in the dark by moonlight.


    An hour later, they suddenly heard that there were wolf howls in front of them, and they couldn''t help but stop again. Zhuo Xi listens to the voice. I''m afraid there are at least 20 wolves. The front soldier ran back and reported, "there are wolves in front, as if chasing the target."


    Zhuo Xi Yilin, the pursuers are behind, and the wolves are not chasing them. In addition to these two groups of people, there is another group in the mountain, Ma San.


    Meng also thought of this and shouted, "sister, it''s uncle Ma and them. Help them! "


    Before he had finished, the crowd in front of him began to stir. Five or six wolves with green eyes ran after a bloody man towards the crowd. The soldiers drew out their weapons, intercepted them left and right, and cut the wolves into meat and mud after a few times. A few pairs of green fluorescence can be seen in the distance. It seems that these people are not easy to mess with and don''t dare to get too close.


    The bloody man collapsed on the ground, with wounds all over his body, dripping with blood. He propped himself up, saw Jing Yuan and others crowded in, and said weakly, "Hou ye, girl, I see you again. We were watched by the wolves during our break. We die and hurt. The rest of the group who could run hid in a cave about 500 steps East. I told them not to come out. Please go and save them. " This man was Ma San. He pointed to the direction of the cave.


    "You came out alone and distracted the wolves?" Jing Yuan was a little shocked. He was not very familiar with the group of slaves. He always felt that they were either old, weak, sick or afraid of death. However, he did not expect that there were such righteous people among them.


    Qumeng has long been in tears. He wants to hug him, but he doesn''t know where to start.


    Zhuo Xi looked red, gave him some wound medicine quickly, wrapped up some serious wounds that were almost exposed by wolves, stood up and walked in that direction.


    Jing Yuan grabbed her, her blood red eyes clenched her teeth and said, "I''m going to save them. I can''t let them die in the belly of the wolf!"


    Jing Yuan said loudly, "they are also the people of our country. People''s lives are vital. Do we have the reason not to save when we die?"


    Jian Yi shouted, "what the Marquis said is that there are only a few evil wolves. How can we defeat the soldiers of Daliang country?!"


    Two words stirred up the blood of the soldiers. A group of people rushed forward, and sure enough, they saw dozens of evil wolves along the road. When the wolves saw the people coming fiercely, they were afraid to retreat again and again. A few people who didn''t know what to do came forward to challenge, and all of them were provoked on the spot.


    The party soon came to the cave that Ma San said. In order to prevent the wolves from entering the burning fire, the cave was about to burn out. Zhuo Xi asked people to put out the fire immediately. When he went in, he found that there were only about 30 people left in the cave. It can be seen that the wolves chased them and killed them in the past two days, resulting in heavy losses. Several old people will come up to thank them when they see someone. Zhuo Xi quickly picked them up and urged them to go quickly.


    The group of people set out on the road again. The wolves didn''t attack again, and the soldiers didn''t bother to kill them. Leaving wolves may also cause damage to the pursuers behind.


    However, their wishes soon failed. It was not the enemy soldiers with weapons that caught up with them, but the thick smoke covered by the night. At first it seemed like a faint smell of smoke, but it didn''t arouse the vigilance of the soldiers. Zhuo Xi was very familiar with the smell. She even smelled a faint smell of barbecue mixed with the smell of tobacco.


    She quickly tore off a piece of dress and tied it to her face, ordered others to do so, and bowed down as far as possible.


    So soon the people saw the specific shape of the smoke in the fire behind them. Someone had begun to cough hard. Zhuo Xi asked everyone to wet the face towel with the water in the kettle they took with them and tie it to their face. It seemed that the situation was getting better.


    She asked Jing Yuan loudly during the gallop, "is there a place near the water source near here?"


    Jing Yuan also felt dark in his eyes and couldn''t answer. But suddenly, Jianrong said, "there is a swamp about a mile to the East." It was the last time he secretly followed Zhuo Xi to the back of the green mountain. Later, he saw that Hou ye came to the hero to save the United States. He had to wander around the periphery in grief and anger. Unexpectedly, he bumped into his hometown again tonight.


    Zhuo Xi''s spirit perked up, "go to the swamp."


    It''s easy to wind in the mountains. Although the fire burns closer, the speed is good, not very fast. There are animals flashing through the forest, and there are some green eyed guys. When running for their lives, no one cares about anyone.


    When they heard that there was a swamp that could stop the fire ahead, they all cheered up. Whether it was true or false, they went in the direction that Jianrong said.


    The one mile field of Jianrong was actually estimated according to his light feet. When the people ran to the legendary swamp, they had walked at least three miles. Zhuo Xi gnashed her teeth and rubbed her sour and soft feet. She stared fiercely. What about the promised one mile?


    She called on the people to have a rest on the side and never go near the swamp. People should not enter the swamp easily. She thought it was common sense. Everyone knew it. Unexpectedly, someone didn''t listen to persuasion and stepped into the swamp with shiny water, and the whole person immediately fell into it.


    When Zhuo Xi heard the scream and ran over, a man was reaching out to pull him. Zhuo Xi grabbed the man and shook her head. The man was also anxious, "Miss Zhuo Xi, a Niu, he was impatient and didn''t understand the situation. He went in at once. We don''t..."


    Before they finished, they shouted in horror. He saw several huge centipedes climbing on a Niu''s body, and others continued to climb out of the mud, climb onto him and into his nostrils. Soon he was silent and his face turned black.


    The man who had just stretched out his hand to pull him withdrew his hand in mid air in a moment of panic.


    Someone asked in the crowd, "does Miss Zhuo Xi know that there is a highly toxic centipede in the mud?"


    Another man asked, "the mud is so terrible that it brings us here. Is she going to kill us? "


    Go to Meng and hold Ma San. "You''re talking nonsense. My sister wants to hurt us. Why save us?"


    Ma San coughed and said, "Er Dan, don''t talk nonsense. Miss zhuoxi is very kind to us. She won''t harm everyone. Daniel didn''t listen to his advice and went into the mire. "


    Jing Yuan nodded to Zi Ran. Zi Ran stood on a boulder and said loudly, "be quiet, everyone. Although the mud is poisonous, you just need to be careful not to step into the mud. Miss Zhuo Xi brought us here. There must be a way to get us out of trouble. Otherwise, we can''t escape the mountain fire. "


    Everyone is quiet, and the fire behind is still burning.


    Zhuo Xi pulled a dead grass from the roadside and threw it on the water. He carefully looked at the extremely slow flow direction of the dead grass, pointed to the East and said, "although the swamp is muddy, it is not a stagnant water. The water here flows to the East. If we follow it to the East, we will find the river. When we cross the river, we will be safe. "


    "Yes, yes, after crossing the river, the fire won''t burn." Some people agreed.


    The fire over there is getting closer and closer. Not only the smoke is big, but also the heat is rising. Everyone understood the importance of time, helped each other up, walked carefully on the bank far from the swamp and went all the way East.


    I don''t know how far I''ve gone. The fire in the forest is getting closer and closer, and everyone can see the most peripheral flames. Zhuo Xi secretly scolded Wang Feng. In order to make contributions, he did not hesitate to set fire to the forest fire and burn down the beautiful green water and green mountains. He also didn''t know what happened to the 100 elite brothers that Yu Liang took to block. If there was no whole body, it would be a bit miserable; At the same time, she secretly rejoiced that she didn''t leave the wounded in the mountains to recover, otherwise she would die. And according to the time when Wang Feng lit the forest fire, it seems that there are still remnants of his troops left in the mountains. If so, Wang Feng is too inhuman, regardless of his own lives. Is this battle mode of losing both sides popular here? She couldn''t help discussing this issue with Duke Jingyuan. Unexpectedly, the latter was indifferent and confused, "as long as the goal can be achieved, what can some soldiers die?"


    In the fear that the forest fire was getting closer and closer, the people finally saw hope at the end of the swamp. This swamp is slightly higher than the downstream river. Like a reservoir, it is intercepted by boulders, with a huge area and extremely slow water flow, which is almost invisible to the naked eye¡° The road beside the dam was also replaced by mossy boulders. People climbed down the boulders carefully, almost desperate. The "River" under the boulders was only wide in size. What''s the use of such a wide river?


    Just waiting for despair, the soldiers who went to explore the way in advance cheered ahead. They quickly turned a small bend and ran over, but they saw a huge lake lying quietly on the grassland. The crowd cheered and wept with joy. They pulled off the cloth on their faces and threw themselves into the arms of the great lake.


    With sharp eyes, Meng saw several figures coming in the distance¡° Sister, look! "


    Jianyi stood in front of them warily. Zi Ran looked at them for a while and said, pressed his weapon and said, "it''s Yu Liang and them."


    "Yu Liang? They''re all right?! " They were overjoyed and greeted.


    Yu Liang limped to Jing Yuan. There were Wu Xing, about a dozen people, who saluted Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan raised his hand, "get up."


    Yu Liang said, "my subordinates were ordered to intercept the enemy. The enemy was numerous and numerous. We fled to the road opened by brother Wu Xing. A group of pursuers were led to the north by us and then caught up with him. Unexpectedly, when the pursuers were still there, they saw a fire burning in the mountains and forests. Wang Feng is a beast, completely regardless of his own life! "


    Wu Xing also said, "after our two departments met, there were nearly a thousand pursuers. In order to cover our evacuation, Xu Wei led the rest of the soldiers to stop the enemy in the forest in a narrow place, and finally... Buried in the sea of fire with the enemy. " He choked and then said happily, "now we see that the master is safe and sound. We are lucky to live up to our fate!"


    Jing Yuan looked at the team of more than ten people and his eyes darkened. "You''ve worked hard. Let''s have a rest."


    Zhuo Xi imagined that thousands of enemy troops were buried in the sea of fire. Their despair, their resentment and their towering anger were all integrated with the mountain fire, and her whole body got goose bumps. In this man eating era, slaves were directly thrown into mass graves when they were ill, not to mention the cruelty of war.


    Before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, the Sentinel''s report raised everyone''s heart, "the enemy was found 50 miles ahead and is coming in this direction. It is estimated that there are about 200 cavalry and more than 3000 infantry. "


    It''s definitely a killing rhythm. Zhuo Xi sighed that Wang Feng and Zhao Ting were almost good. They set fire to the mountain. If there was a living escape, they could only run to the beautiful lake. The lake stretches to the north and East. It is really a good place for cavalry to gallop.


    Zhuo Xi made a quick decision, "the other party is a cavalry. We can only turn back to the mountains."


    As soon as he said this, the soldiers, slaves and others showed a look of despair. They had just stepped out of the hellish mountains and forests and wanted to go back?


    Unable to avoid the public to hold a leading group meeting, Jing Yuan spread out a map in a circle surrounded by core personnel, made a bold decision. Zhuo Xi immediately agreed that only here can people get a chance of life.


    So they dragged their tired bodies, drank two mouthfuls of lake water in a hurry and began a new journey. They circled back to the other side of the swamp from the other side of the lake. Only half an hour later, as soon as they entered the forest, they heard the sound of horses'' hoofs from a distance by the lake. The desire to survive finally supported their exhausted soul and body, dragging forward step by step.


    The soldiers had already dispersed their formation and marched forward with shoulder to shoulder, and several were carrying the wounded. The soldiers carrying the wounded carried out the orders very thoroughly. They gave them their hands when they didn''t see the existence of the slaves. The slaves were even slower. Some fell to the ground after taking a few steps and almost never remembered.


    But Zhuo Xi knew that there was a safe haven not far ahead. At least they could have a short rest in it. But I don''t know if there are new soldiers and miners in there since they left? She said this doubt to Jing Yuan. He pondered for a moment and invited Jian Yi to have a look in person.


    Jian Yi knows where the secret switch is.


    Fortunately, Jianyi soon came back and reported that there was no one inside. It seems that although the king issued a secret order saying that this place is illegal mining, he didn''t do face beating immediately. He immediately sent someone to take over this place. The king can''t do whatever he wants.


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. "Comrades, if we insist on a cup of tea, we can enter a secret room. The knife forest is burning, and no one can attack it."


    No one knows what she means by comrades, but everyone understands the words behind. It''s safe to take another cup of tea? All the people were in high spirits, got up and rushed forward immediately.


    The sound of horses'' hoofs had disappeared and was replaced by the angry scolding and noise of people, which came faintly from the other end of the swamp, getting closer and closer. The sound of weapons hitting the trees from time to time showed their sufficient energy and full of anger.


    Finally, he reached the entrance of the mine. It was easy to open the entrance and signal the slaves to fish in.

 Chapter 23

    The pursuers shouted, "they''re here!"


    Jing Yuan looked at the tired people. Without words, he took the lead in turning back to the back of the team. When he pulled out his weapons, he fought with the people. Zi Ran, Jian Yi and Jian Rong also flew to the back. Zhuo Xi said to Wu Xing at the mouth of the cave, "you are also injured. Take your injured brother first. You can fight with me!"


    Wu Xing''s face was calm, "this place has been exposed,..."


    She knew his concern and glanced at the number of people fighting behind. "Don''t worry, I won''t let the witnesses stay."


    Jing Yuan, with a group of soldiers with remaining combat effectiveness, was engaged in a fierce struggle with the enemy soldiers. She carefully bypassed the front battlefield and copied to the back. Sure enough, she found a soldier running back while looking back. She chased forward for a few steps, drew closer, and popped up something suspected of a concealed weapon, which hit the right side of the soldier''s neck. When the soldier saw someone chasing him for a few steps and didn''t chase him, he didn''t kill him back. He just wanted to go back and report. Leng Buding felt that there was a hidden weapon in his neck. He thought it was bad, but he didn''t seem to feel it. Touch it with your hand, but it''s just a sugar bean. He laughed as he ran. Why did the Marquis even use a woman who fired candy? He also arrogantly threw sugar beans into his mouth and was ready to go back and talk about this story with the brothers in the camp. It will make them laugh for three days.


    Jing Yuan over there was also strange. He was sending an enemy soldier in front of him. He flew over to make up a knife for Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi grabbed his sleeve and motioned him to look at it.


    As soon as the soldier took a step, a white shadow shot out and bit the place where he had just glued the sugar beans with great accuracy. Jing Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and another enemy soldier stabbed beside him. He quickly turned back and fought again.


    When I saw that the enemy soldiers were still standing in the neck, I saw that Yi''s hands were still frozen, but I looked back at the neck of the enemy soldiers.


    Zhuo Xi hid Xiaobai in her sleeve with satisfaction and threw it a few sugar beans. The place she hit was the soldier''s aorta. Xiaobai bit it down, and the toxin immediately went all over the body with the aorta, especially the head and chest closest to the wound. She knew that at this time, although the unlucky soldier''s egg might still be alive biologically, from his complete immobility, his brain had died rapidly under the action of the toxin.


    Another enemy soldier personally came forward to check his situation. He knew that there were more or less bad luck. He took another look at Zhuo Xi, who was proud to stand aside. Contrary to his anger, he waved a knife and cut over. Zhuo Xi sighed, so he had to grab a handful of sugar beans and flick his middle finger right in the middle of his eyebrow. Xiaobai shot out of her cuff and kissed his forehead without hesitation. The enemy soldier finally understood what kind of concealed weapon the brother in front died under, fought his last strength and shouted "demon girl!" The chopper came over and was kicked off by Jing Yuan who then flew over.


    This is a small game that Zhuo Xi came up with to play with Xiaobai in Xiaoqing hospital a few days ago. Unexpectedly, it has become a sharp weapon for killing people. Seeing more and more enemy soldiers besieging her, she directly gave Xiaobai another actual combat exercise. She shot sugar beans at different enemy soldiers one after another. Xiaobai gave sweet kisses one by one. It''s just that sometimes I accidentally kiss my ass. it''s OK on my ass. there''s more meat and fresh blood. That''s the smell that comes suddenly. It''s a little bad; Another time he kissed the armor on his chest and almost knocked off his precious teeth. It''s so old that its lost teeth can''t grow again. What happened when the last sugar bean hit the man''s hair? Even it knows that this position can''t bite people. Don''t waste your energy.


    Finally, Zi Ran took the soldiers to count the scene. There were 56 enemy soldiers, 38 of whom showed varying degrees of black. They may not be killed by poisoning immediately, but most of them are killed by counterattack due to slow action due to poisoning. They quickly carried the body near the swamp and scattered it everywhere. All those who didn''t get black let Xiaobai take a bite, put their bodies in a special shape, and made a scene of dying of swamp poisons. Finally, they returned to the cave with great awe of Zhuo Xi and Xiaobai. When they looked at the blackened and hardened bodies of the enemy soldiers, they deeply realized a truth: they would rather offend the Marquis than Zhuo Xi. They must tell the brothers in the cave this iron law at the first time.


    Jing Yuan and others strolled around the cave in the dark for two more times. After confirming that no witnesses left, they turned on the mine switch and entered the cave. The mountain gate is hidden. Once the mechanism is closed, it looks like it is integrated with the rock wall. If Jing Hua and his soldiers didn''t come, they believe that no one will find it in a short time, let alone know that they are hiding here.


    Entering the mine, they magically found that the people in the cave spontaneously divided into two groups. A group of people looked sad, and some were still crying; The other group was sad, and their eyes were full of fear.


    As soon as I asked, I knew that these slaves managed to escape. They made a circle with the palm of death in the mountains. Unexpectedly, they returned to this place that made them extremely afraid. It''s like an inescapable fate, turning around and returning to the origin.


    Ma San was fine. Going to Meng was very excited. He remembered that he had almost been thrown into a mass grave. They just ran for their lives. The soldiers asked them to drill into the cave. When they came in, they knew that it was a familiar place where they had stayed for several months. Those bronze mountain shovels, bamboo baskets and cars were piled up everywhere. Many could recognize the instruments they had used and how much sweat they had dropped on them. It used to be the last nightmare they wanted to recall. Every day there were endless minerals, endless bronze barrels, and endless whips from prison soldiers. The two meals a day were just dark hard cakes and chaotic water. Occasionally, there was thin porridge cooked directly from wheat. It was tasteless and difficult to chew, and it was difficult to swallow. If a companion is ill and can persist in working until he recovers, it is blessed by the gods. If he falls down in the mine and can''t work or can''t get up in the prison, other companions will be thrown into the mass grave like rags at the cry of the soldiers. Those who were thrown into mass graves never came back, except to Meng. When qumeng thought of this, he held on to Ma San''s sleeve. Like others, Ma San couldn''t guess the intentions of Hou ye and miss Zhuo Xi. Aren''t a group of people hiding here waiting for each other to come? It''s not as good as the open mountains and forests outside. You can run one by one. If someone sets another fire here, none of them will escape. After turning around and coming back, his companions lost two-thirds and returned to the original origin. Ma San couldn''t help thinking with his head down. He didn''t even notice that Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi came in.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t go to comfort her immediately after learning that the slaves were crying because of their revisit to their hometown. Because the Supreme Commander Jing Yuan immediately found an open space to avoid the public to hold an emergency military meeting. Zhuo Xi was naturally invited. Everyone knows that we can only hide from the pursuit for a while, but we can''t get out of trouble smoothly. Moreover, although the mine is safe, it is short of materials, which is far inferior to the mountains and forests outside. Therefore, the main topic of the first emergency military meeting was to assign tasks. Except Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi, others received the tasks of finding food, water and resources respectively, and were asked to make detailed statistics at the first time, keep them in centralized custody, and then come back to continue the meeting.


    Zhuo Xi also needed a break at this time. She sat at a conference table served by a huge rock and asked Jing Yuan, "why did you abandon those high phosphorus iron ores when mining?"


    "High phosphorus iron ore? What is high phosphorus iron ore? "


    How dare they not know high phosphorus iron ore?


    "It''s the pile of waste rocks you left at the foot of the south mountain."


    "You mean that pile of white iron? The white iron refined from that iron stone is brittle and hard. It can only burn some farm tools and utensils, which is of little use. This red copper can be used to make both coins and weapons. Naturally, it is much more valuable than that iron stone. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately understood that in the bronze age, the smelting technology of iron had just started. The pig iron was not malleable and could only be roughly made into agricultural tools. Even the eating utensils in the house were made of bronze and carefully engraved with auspicious patterns such as flowers, birds, clouds and animals, but it was rare to see other metal products. Now she finally understood why the output of iron ore was much higher than that of copper mine, but she abandoned it.


    "If I have a way to use this pile of white iron stones to make excellent weapons, will you let me have a try?"


    Jing Yuan didn''t believe it and shook his head. "There were craftsmen who made knives and axes with white iron, but they broke when they cut them and broke when they touched them."


    She smiled, "please wait and see." She is very confident that although the iron ore is full of spots, it quietly flashes a little light. This is obviously an iron ore with high phosphorus content. In future generations, in order to refine refined iron, phosphorus must be added. This natural phosphorite, properly made, will be extremely hard refined iron. If the equipment allows, she can find a way to forge steel.


    After a while, several people came to report for duty. It was originally a mine. Most of the grain stored in the warehouse can be used for nearly 200 people here for three or five days. Water is a small stream hanging from a high cliff. As for other mining production and living materials, they are basically well preserved.


    The division of labor was carried out again at the second military conference. Jing Yuan was still the commander in chief and Zi Ran was the Quartermaster in charge, responsible for the distribution and registration of all materials and food; Jian Yi is the leader of the security team and is responsible for allocating police forces to protect the security here; Room capacity is the production team leader, responsible for organizing the orderly production of the miners; Zhuo Xi is a full-time scientific research personnel, responsible for research, design, production of new products and transformation of their achievements into batch products.


    So when Jianrong went to announce the decision of the military meeting to Ma San and others, the miners finally collapsed and cried. Zhuo Xi was merciless and knocked a stone axe picked up on the ground on the bottom of the bronze container used to hold stones, making a sound of touching. The people stopped crying and looked at her with tearful eyes. She cleared her throat. "I know what you''re crying about, but crying won''t solve the problem. We can only avoid here for a while, not for a lifetime. Now that we have come in, our first priority is to solve the problems of food, water and weapons. Now food is available for us to eat for three or five days, and water comes up from the mountains. What we need most is weapons. As long as this problem is solved, we can go out smoothly from here. "


    "Can you really get out of here?" One of the people asked uncertainly.


    She continued, "sure! Now we are guarding this rich copper mine and iron ore and have smelting equipment. I hope you can spare no effort to build enough weapons in this half month. All of you will have a new division of labor, and I will teach you the art of smelting as much as possible. After you go out from here, you can have a skill. "


    Ma Sanwen was surprised. "Is the girl really willing to teach us the smelting skill?" They have always been the lowest miners. Before, the smelters here were craftsmen from the imperial court. They didn''t have a chance to see this smelting technique at all.


    "This is natural. You have a way. You have no class. When you go out in the future, no matter who you are, you can have a meal if you have a skill." Natural slaves are also divided into 369 grades. Compared with ordinary slaves, slaves with technical expertise are obviously much better in treatment and living conditions. Nowadays, the copper mine is fully controlled by the government, and there is a great need for all kinds of smelting and forging talents. If they can be employed by the government through technology, they can not only improve the quality of life, but also break away from slavery and become civilians.


    Ma Sanli immediately thanked, "if you are lucky enough to get the girl''s instruction, it is Ma Sanzhi''s blessing."


    "But I have one small condition." Zhuo Xi wants to say the ugly words ahead.


    "Girl, please."


    "You must sign a deed of life and death with me. First, I will ensure everyone''s safety during teaching. If I am not present, I have nothing to do with the death and injury accidents caused by your improper operation during and after learning. Second, after you learn the art of smelting, you can find a way out by yourself or be employed by the government. However, within three years, you can''t teach others on your own, or cooperate with the enemy and betray the country. And I promise that there are no whips and supervisors here. Everyone can eat and sleep well. Come to me first when you are sick. Moreover, I will keep a record of Ziran''s labor in this half month. If we can all get out of the mountain safely, the marquis will pay you according to everyone''s labor. " Zhuo Xi continued to make persistent efforts.


    "Is that true? Do you really have money? " An older man asked with a little trembling. He hasn''t been paid all his life.


    "Of course it''s true. It''s natural to get paid according to work."


    Ma San and others pondered for a while and felt that there was nothing wrong with this matter. Tun promised to come down and thank him deeply. Many people also thank you. Obviously, the free teaching of this technology has aroused their great interest.


    "Thank you, Miss Zhuo Xi!" Finally, most of the miners agreed.


    "Then, in the future, Zhuo Xi will rely on you."

 Chapter 24

    Zhuo Xi found out the fine charcoal seized from Shu Yue, wrote the terms in the blank space on the back of the sheepskin pillow towel and map, and asked everyone to draw a pledge. Ma San was the first to read the terms, but his eyes were uncertain, but he still wrote down his name correctly. Others can only draw a circle and fork. She looked and smiled. She knew that these people were illiterate except Ma San. They didn''t even know that what she wrote was simplified Chinese, so they drew a bet without hesitation. Moreover, this life and death contract is just an insurance to make them alert to the dangers of operation. It will also contribute to their personal safety in the future.


    She then led the crowd to see the smelting plant inside the mine. The original crucibles, furnaces and other equipment are complete, and there are three sets, that is, some details need to be improved. While explaining the usage and manufacturing process of various appliances to the workers, she changed some details slightly. For example, she changed the tuyere platform to a downward slope with a certain slope, which is helpful for both air inlet and drainage. She frowned at the huge chimney. The fuel was still raw firewood, which meant that a lot of manpower was spent on cutting trees every day.


    Zhuo Xi divided all the miners. The manpower was a little tight, and some bodyguards joined in. She first asked someone to carry the abandoned iron ore at the foot of the mountain. Watching them put a stick into the ore basket and carry it in with difficulty, they also ordered several guards to cut some thick trunks. She conducted several experiments with iron ore, first refining the iron ore into pig iron, then heating for a long time to decompose the pig iron into malleable iron and graphite, then repeated hot forging can be carried out to squeeze out the residual oxygen bloom in the iron, and finally forging into the desired instrument. The miners watched the stones turn into exquisite weapons after several tosses. They were excited and rubbed their hands to operate.


    Yi day, Zhuo Xi was still sleeping, as if he felt an earthquake. Her confused head flashed over the crater and jumped up in an instant. Only then did she find that she was awakened by the sound of the door - the vibration of the door was much greater than the sound it made when it was hammered. But this time there was no sound of Shu Yue''s soft voice outside asking the young lady to sleep more. She thought of the courteous maidservant and regretfully opened the door. She got up and rushed out in an instant, "is there an earthquake? Or did the volcano erupt? What did the ghost howl early in the morning, and let people sleep well? "


    Zi Ran was not embarrassed or angry at all. He asked excitedly and pleasantly, "Miss Zhuo Xi, the knife you made is invincible. I have cut off twelve bronze knives, and the rest of my brothers won''t let me cut again. Girl, is your knife really made of white iron? Why is it so hard? "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, man. You woke me up just like you did a great disaster for this? Well, it''s wrong to curse others. However, discipline should be emphasized. So she yawned and said with a smile, "did you come to taste candy this morning?"


    Zi Ran was surprised and quickly put his hand up, "no, no, thank you for your kindness, Miss Zhuo Xi."


    If not, go away. Zhuo Xi was too lazy to speak again and slammed the door.


    Zi Ran touched his almost hit nose and patted his chest in shock. How could he forget that he was the master who slept until the end of the day? How did he forget that he was the one who would never mess with? Why did he forget that this man had a bright murder weapon? Although he really wanted to beg her to make a weapon for him, he wanted to use this sharp weapon to kill people. He was afraid that his liver trembled, so he had better forget it first.


    After zhuoxi finally woke up, she found the place where she had dinner the night before and saw that the temporary cook was busy washing. The division of labor she obtained did not need to dig mines like men or burn mines in hot production workshops. She was very satisfied, so she made two meals a day very carefully. At this time, the men had just finished their first meal in the morning. They saw Miss Zhuo Xi coming from a distance, quickly filled a bowl of sad porridge and put it on several large stone tables. This is the best food she has eaten in recent months. The bamboo sticks used for eating won''t fall on it. It''s soft and moist. It''s much better than the black cake.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the kitchen furnishings and materials. She could only sprinkle a little salt, the only seasoning in the kitchen, into the porridge, so she reluctantly drank the bowl of porridge. Compared with the white rice porridge I used to eat, the porridge is hard and hard to chew. Occasionally, particles scrape the throat when swallowing, just like sand. She thought that she must improve her food and reward her poor stomach when she had a chance in the future.


    The cook looked at her porridge secretly from time to time. She didn''t understand how the young lady could eat such delicious food like swallowing. Fortunately, she also hid half a pheasant. In the evening, she can cut it into small pieces and cook it for everyone like yesterday. At least there is some meat. The pheasant came from nowhere. It was found by the guards during the patrol of the mine. They immediately caught it and made it for the cook.


    Zhuo Xi also saw half a pheasant in her hand and wanted to make countless frying and cooking methods. Finally, she looked at the people in the distance, looked at the seasoning pot with nothing but salt, shook her head and pressed her cooking idea. Finally, she said to the cook, "aunt, if the branch is cut with tools, polished a little, and cut into the same length, will it be much more convenient to use and wash?" As she spoke, she took a bronze sword and showed it to her.


    The cook was very happy. If they were so smooth and straight, it would be much more convenient to wash¡° Can I borrow the girl''s sword? The old slave cut off the remaining branches. "


    Zhuo Xi said generously, "I''ll give you this little sword. It''s up to you to cut vegetables or kill chickens." She seemed to hear a slight "hiss" and a puff.


    It''s unbelievable that the cook holds a small sword. The bronze sword is very valuable at first sight. In particular, there is a green gem embedded in the sword. Suddenly she has such a precious sword? She quickly waved off.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care, "just take it, I''ll have better." The cook raised the green sword over her head. Thank you very much.


    Zhuo Xi put her sleeves aside, but quietly put Xiaobai under the stone table. She then stood up and walked in the direction of the production workshop. After a while, I heard two wails, "Miss Zhuo Xi, please do me a favor and let it let me go."


    She smiled and turned her voice. She saw that Jianrong was behind the trees and had big eyes to small eyes with Xiaobai. He looks bitter. Although his martial arts are high, he can''t fight or kill Xiaobai. Can he still not show up when he is entangled by it?


    "Tell me first, why are you following me?"


    His face became more bitter. "Wronged, miss, it was the Marquis who asked me to follow you secretly to protect you."


    She sneered, "there are spies in the mine again?"


    He was stunned for a moment and said uncertainly, "no, right?..."


    "I didn''t see you protecting me secretly when the mountain forest was in crisis. How did you get back to your original post when you got to the closed mine?"


    He stammered a little, "in the mountains and forests, there is a marquis by your side. How dare you get close?"


    She smiled again. "Don''t you dare, disdain?"


    He flopped down on his knees, "girl, you are so smart. I dare not hide it. I saw that the Marquis was so interested in you for no reason. I don''t understand what you are superior. I''m really unwilling in words and deeds. But I came all the way to see the girl''s outstanding intelligence. Only then did I know that there were people outside the people and there were days outside the world. The villain admired me and was willing to follow the efforts of the left and right. "


    "Hum, it seems that you are not mortal who can speak such a flattering language. Come on, who taught you? " Either Jing Yuan or Zi Ran.


    "No, no one teaches villains." He began to stammer again.


    "Oh? So, I think you are wrong. Is there someone else in your master? " Zhuo Xi excites him first. Jing Yuan will not teach him this speech for no reason. There must be some purpose.


    "The villain is wronged. Girl, if you say you are loyal to your Lord, if a villain recognizes the second, no one dares to recognize the first! " He shouted.


    As soon as the voice fell, Zhuo Xi didn''t have time to reply. He saw two other figures flying over and kicked one person directly¡° Dare you say that? If we don''t rank first, how many places do we have to rank? " Sure enough, it was between Zi Ran and Yi.


    After kicking his foot back, he found that the stuffing was exposed. Zi Ran touched his nose, his heart crossed, pulled Jian Yi and knelt down together, "girl Gao Zhi, the three of us are willing to follow the girl and ask the girl to accept me."


    Zhuo Xi was startled. She knew that they must have a purpose. The purpose was nothing more than the iron weapon, but she didn''t know that they gave such a big gift when they came.


    She couldn''t help asking, "did the Lord ask you to come?"


    "No!" They all answered. Eh, why does it seem that there is an extra voice?


    Zhuo Xi glanced, and Jing Yuan flew over and kicked each of them in the ass. He flew to his feet and said angrily, "who let you make your own decisions?! Since ancient times, the teacher''s way has been greater than heaven. You have been taught by the king''s residence since childhood. Everyone worships and respects the teacher. Now you want to go to the mountain gate to bully the teacher and destroy your ancestors? "


    The three had already bowed down and dared not speak.


    Zhuo Xi blinked and seemed to ask, "you really didn''t order it?" They just said to learn from me. It''s not as serious as deceiving teachers and destroying ancestors, is it?


    Jing Yuan was awe inspiring, "definitely not the marquis. If I ask you, I will tell you frankly. " I''m kidding. If the three of them worship her as their teacher, won''t they call him Shigong in the future?


    She believed this sentence, so she followed good advice like a stream, "so, does the Marquis really have nothing to ask?"


    Jing Yuan pursed his lips, looked at the three people lying on the ground and sighed, "you three get up first." Then he turned to Zhuo Xi and spit out a syllable, "yes."


    As soon as they got up, they stumbled before they stood firm. Their eyes immediately glowed, like a hungry wolf at the sight of food.


    "Although Ben Hou promised you that he would not ask the source or origin of anything you did, he was really curious. How did you get these wonderful ideas? If it was taught by the old Eunuch in the palace, Ben Hou didn''t believe it. But Ben Hou promised you again. I can only trust you. In that case, I have a small request. I look forward to solving my doubts one day in the future. I hope Xi''er can agree. "


    "Tell me, what do you want?"


    "Xi''er, you said yesterday that you would teach those slaves smelting technology. I wonder if the three pillars around me can also participate in learning together?" Maybe let them replace Ben Hou''s eyes and see what you are sacred.


    "Of course you can study, but you don''t have to learn from a teacher, but you three need to pay tuition." Zhuo Xi agreed without hesitation.


    The three were overjoyed. But what the hell is tuition¡° The tuition fee is... "


    "Thirty bucks per person until you learn." She stretched out three fingers. It took her a long time to learn from mother Wang that money in this era is cloth coins. An ordinary cloth coin can be exchanged for 30 jin of white flour. As a waiter, his monthly salary is only 20 bucks.


    Yi was a little angry. She opened her mouth and he disappeared in two months. "Why don''t I and the three pay money for those slaves?"


    "Oh? They signed the contract of life and death with me. Do you want to sell yourself to me? I don''t need you to greet me and serve me with a broom sooner or later, nor do I expect you to inherit my skills and honor my ancestors, nor do I need to be a teacher for one day and a teacher for life. We have paid both money and goods. Naturally, when you finish your studies, they have nothing to do with each other. Besides, you don''t need to rely on this technology to earn food and clothing. Is it too much to charge you 30 bucks? " She smiled and smiled.


    The three heard a cold sweat.


    Jing Yuan knew the ancient Confucian festival of worshipping teachers and said a fair word, "good money and goods are paid, and each has nothing to do with it. According to Ben Hou, you should take advantage of your stool. "


    He ignored the expression of heartache of the three people, but asked Zhuo Xi uncertainly, "why? Smelting has always been a secret in the palace. How can you teach others so easily? "


    "In my opinion, this is only the best way to solve our current difficulties. Technology is used to benefit mankind, arm the country and improve life. There is no need to hide it. "


    "How to solve the current dilemma?" Zi Ran''s eyes lit up immediately. Several military meetings yesterday did not discuss the coming of Zi Chou Yin Mao. Why did he suddenly have a way to get out of trouble today


    She motioned to Ziran to pull out the knife sample he was waving today from his waist, "what do you think of this iron weapon?"


    "Compared with the bronze weapons they used before, they are much better. On the one hand, they have rich raw materials and a lot of output; Second, iron weapons are lighter and thinner than bronze and have greater lethality. If they can be made into arrows, it will be better. "


    "If the king gets this smelting secret......" Zhuo Xi inquired about the good inducement. She thought about it all night last night. She thought that this method might correct Jing Yuan''s name. The king didn''t issue an edict. This method might make him change his mind. She gambled on his imperial heart with this iron smelting skill.


    "You mean to offer this secret skill to the king?" Zi Ran was already very excited. He immediately figured out the joints between them. "If the Marquis presents this secret skill to the king, the king will be happy and may praise the Marquis, so it''s natural to let go of the previously said Marquis''s private mining!"


    "I will offer this weapon to the king at the first time." Jing Yuan''s eyebrows were also relaxed. What he offered could only be weapons, and the secret arts could become the chips in his hands. Although this brother has regarded him as a thorn in the eye and flesh for many years, such a sharp blade is readily available. He believes that his nail is not important enough to make him give up the possibility of strengthening national strength and expediting other countries. Moreover, the 100000 reinforcements from afar can also be saved from the disaster of rebellion. As for the future, we will work slowly.


    Obviously, except Zhuo Xi, all present thought of the 100000 Baihui regular army who secretly came to support after receiving the letter. I don''t know whether their whereabouts and movements have been detected by the one above these days, but as long as there is no bloody battle in the front, the king can only block the long public in the world in secret. It''s really a good gift to go up this step.


    Zhuo Xi saw that all four people were happy and knew that her plan had been adopted. She also showed a happy face. She earned more than four months'' salary without effort, and the road of primitive accumulation of her capital began.


    She turned to the three. "I''m short of a literacy assistant. Who of you writes better?"


    Zi Ran proudly stepped out of the line. The other two looked and knew that the competition could not compete with him. They were decadent and silent.


    "You can participate in learning, but you can''t affect the work at hand. Come to me when you''ve arranged." She''s still in a hurry to class.


    "Yes!" The three men strode away with excitement.


    Jing Yuan had no choice but to turn the white jade wrench in his hand in order to calm the feeling of being ignored and abandoned.

 Chapter 25

    Zhuo Xi hummed a little song and returned to the smelting workshop. On the way, she saw that the miners carrying baskets to transport ore were very hard. She asked Ma San to call two carpenters to simply turn the trees cut down yesterday into a unicycle, which not only liberates the labor force, but also improves efficiency. The miner who transported the ore said happily, "thank you, miss zhuoxi. I can go to the workshop to learn forging and burning by transporting two more cars." Every miner must complete the quarrying task before he can go to the workshop to learn the more difficult technology. Zhuo Xi nodded. Under her influence, these workers unconsciously called the smelting place the workshop.


    Before the first day of teaching, she adjusted everything that needed to be adjusted in the workshop and prepared teaching aids. Miners continued to arrive in the interior of the workshop to prepare for class. They dare not touch anything until she gives orders. Finally, more than half an hour later, everyone arrived, but they also came. Zhuo Xi asked them to sit on the ground and explained in detail the process and related principles of the whole smelting technology. The workshop was baked warm and the earth compacted ground was dry. Zi Ran found the bamboo slips and pen and ink left by the craftsman and recorded them one by one. Zhuo Xi divided all the students again according to the process, then explained each step to them in detail, told them to pay attention, don''t hurt themselves, and then took Ziran to continue the experiment. In fact, she is not very satisfied with yesterday''s experimental samples. It takes manpower to add firewood here, and the temperature of the stove is really limited. If the temperature of the furnace can be higher, she can make 100 steel by carburizing.


    When she turned around, she found that all the people on the ground, led by Ma San, knelt down with their feet and raised their hands above their heads. She asked Ziran curiously what they were doing. Zi Ran explained that this was the first time the craftsmen of this Dynasty started the ceremony, but there was no special guidance, which was a little nondescript.


    Zi Ran had previously recorded the experimental data of her every step. When she finally showed it to her, her eyes widened¡° What are these ghost symbols? " Although she finally knows several small seal characters in the Qin and Han Dynasties, why can''t Zi Ran understand anything except the horizontal and vertical lines indicating that she understands the numbers? This character is a bit like Xiaozhuan, but it is not Xiaozhuan.


    Zi Ran also stared round. "Miss Zhuo Xi, you can''t read?" No justice? She knows such advanced technology that she can''t read?


    Zhuo Xi also felt that there was no reason. Although she knew that the continent was very early, about the same as the previous spring and Autumn period, she didn''t know a word, did she? She''s a little collapsed. The education of the 21st century makes her unable to be a blind person, or should she find a teacher? But who are you looking for? However, they certainly can''t. They will take the thirty bucks back as tuition fees. The only people left are Jing Yuan. So at lunch time - with her strong request and the strong approval of others, the meals in the mine changed from two to three a day - she quietly asked Jing Yuan this little request, ignoring his strange eyes. Unexpectedly, he agreed without hesitation and didn''t mention the tuition fee, which made her feel that she was a villain in vain. Also, how could someone ask her for tuition so much?


    What she didn''t know was that Jing Yuan secretly laughed in her heart. He was worried that he couldn''t get close to her, but he didn''t expect to fly to Yanfu immediately. He could use this as an excuse to stay with her. Hahaha, he really wants to laugh up. God knows how boring it is for him to wander around the mountains in the morning.


    So in the afternoon, everyone in the workshop stared at their top commander, who followed Zhuo Xi, and leaned down to say something in her ear from time to time. Only Zi Ran knew that he was reading his notes and reading them to her word by word. At the same time, he found that she learned very fast. She quickly found out the rules of horizontal and vertical digital records, and quickly remembered the commonly used words. Compared with himself, he was proud of his mastery of both literature and martial arts. He could write and fight. He was the right-hand assistant of Lord Hou. However, Miss Zhuo Xi couldn''t understand what decomposition and oxide she told him one morning. What is oxygen? He not only couldn''t understand, but also couldn''t write. He asked for advice from the girl. She didn''t speak. She took a pen and drew a few simple symbols, and drew a circle in the back. Seeing that she was very skilled in writing, it didn''t look like she had never mentioned a pen. Why didn''t she know one in big characters?


    However, to everyone''s excitement, one afternoon, two workers took turns to forge the red iron and beat no less than ten knives, one better than the other. When the last knife came out of the furnace, everyone was surprised to find that the bronze sword that had been cut countless times had been incomplete and scarred. Zhuo Xi picked up the big knife that had just quenched the cold water and glowed with green light and handed it to Jianrong. She ordered him to vigorously cut at Jianyi who refused to let go with the first forged iron knife. She specially ordered him not to use internal power. It was easy to raise the iron knife for a block conditionally. Just listen to a bang, the iron knife forged for the first time actually broke from the collision. Everyone was silent, and then captured a handful of sweat baked by the hot stove and gave a great cheer.


    Zhuo Xi exhaled, "it''s done."


    That''s it? In their opinion, the dozens of big knives in front of them are all high-quality products. How can we say the last one?


    She told Ziran that in the future, all standards should be carried out according to the last recorded value, the time should be the same, the temperature should be the same, the quantity should be the same, and so on.


    Finally, she showed you how to cut the blade. Once again, everyone opened their mouth into an O-shape. They were so powerful before they opened the front. When they opened the blade, didn''t they cut copper like mud?


    In the evening, Zi Ran wrote quickly on one side. He wiped the big knife with pity. He borrowed silk and ink from Zi Ran and kept drawing something. They had no idea that the iron cutting tool could be so hard after being improved and manufactured. Jing Yuan sat and played with the wrench in his hand.


    After a while, "my Lord, the letter to the king has been drafted. Please have a look." Jing Yuan took the pen black and changed a few words on it. Zi Ran was ready to take it over and transcribe it again. Jing Yuan blocked his hand, "such major discoveries should be written by Ben Hou himself, which made the king believe."


    Zi Ran dropped his hand and said yes. He stood by and looked at Jian Yi with itchy teeth. He was still wiping the big knife. Suddenly someone knocked at the door. He was very happy and ran to open the door. Then he picked up a long strip and opened it and handed it to Jian Yi. Jian Yi''s face showed vigilance, "what are you doing?"


    "Have you been playing long enough? That''s the Royal product to be presented to the king. Do you understand? " Zi Ran emphasized the word "imperial goods".


    He wiped the broadsword for the last time, then wrapped it with a piece of rag and put it into the box just made by the craftsman.


    Jing Yuan didn''t lift his head. "Why, I can''t bear it?"


    Jianyi immediately opened the switch, "you don''t know, sir. All the brothers looked at me with envious eyes when eating. They wanted to pull it from me and take it as their own right away. It''s not hot yet... "


    "What''s the hurry? Isn''t Jianrong drawing a sketch? You can tell him any weapon style you want. It''s long, short, sharp and curved. From tomorrow, fight everyone with a handy weapon. "


    Jian Yi was overjoyed. In fact, he was a sword from primary school. The master said that the sword technique he learned was suitable for overcoming hardness with softness. If there is a thin soft sword, it can exert greater power. Unfortunately, he has never found a thin soft sword. How could he miss such a great opportunity tailored to his needs? He immediately ran to Jianrong, squatted down and said pleasantly, "good brother, I want a handle..."


    Jianrong clapped, "don''t you see I''m busy? Wait a minute, and then draw what you want when your brother finishes drawing these. "


    So Jianyi waited until the second half of the night. Jianrong put down his pen and ink, looked at Jianyi squatting to sleep, put away these tools and gently went back to his room to sleep.


    Jing Yuan had already finished writing the bundle of memorials, left the room where they held their daily meetings and floated to Zhuo Xi''s thatched house. The oil lamp in the house had gone out, and the beauty seemed to have fallen asleep. He stood quietly outside for a while. He doesn''t know what he''s looking at. The closed wooden door is very rough. What''s good? Can you expect her to open the door from inside? Even if you open the door, are you sure it''s not a dream?


    At this time, he saw that the person he liked was opening the door, looking around, and then came out.


    Zhuo Xi is a little night blind, especially in this ancient night when there were no street lights but moonlight. But she succeeded in losing sleep again. She hasn''t slept well since the medicine pillow was taken apart. The same is true these two days. She wrapped the same herb in the sheepskin map as a temporary pillow, but it seemed to have completely lost its sleep function. She doesn''t know why. Since she was a child, she often had insomnia for unknown reasons. Obviously, her body was very tired and didn''t want to move. However, as soon as her eyes were closed, all kinds of images in her brain came overwhelming, and then she would fall deeply into the legendary ghost bed. She wanted to wake up and couldn''t wake up. She always had to struggle in the dark abyss. When I was fully awake, I had no impression of the image in my dream. This kind of sleepy state frightened her most. She always felt that she didn''t know when she was deeply trapped in the bed again and couldn''t wake up completely. She slept well for the first two days. She thought the historical mission of insomnia was over. Unexpectedly, she began to relapse on the third day. So I had to make the medicine pillow. It was easy to sleep for a few days. A few days ago, I began to have slight insomnia. When she entered the mine yesterday, she officially began the tragic cycle of fighting with the God of insomnia. But in this strange world without computers, movies and mobile phones, what does she take to spend this sleepless night? After looking at the ferocious moon outside the window for two hours, she decided to take a walk around. I''m tired of walking. Maybe I can sleep when I come back.


    So when she stopped for a breath in front of the bamboo forests in the west of the mine for the 19th time, Jing Yuan really couldn''t help coming out of the darkness and asked, "the moon is dark and the wind is high. What is Miss Zhuo Xi doing?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the bright full moon in the sky. Which eye did he see the dark moon and the high wind¡° Why, I''m not allowed to take a walk and eat here? " She tends to lose her temper when she has insomnia. Once she had hardly slept for a whole month. The whole person looked like crazy. All kinds of sleeping pills had been tried and were completely ineffective; All kinds of massage and acupuncture of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine have been tried, which is also completely ineffective. Later, it was the wolf who said that she could not be contacted alive and dead. Then he appeared and found her hidden home in the city. He held her all night. Then she slowly calmed down the restlessness in her brain and slept all day and night. Later, she experimented several times and found that when she had insomnia, she often found a wolf to hold her and often achieved miraculous results. So she was overjoyed to propose to him and felt that the wolf was sent by heaven to save her. Unexpectedly, these are their own wishful thinking. But she hasn''t tried other men. I don''t know if it has the same miraculous effect


    Jing Yuan was stunned for a moment. He didn''t know why she was so angry. He just looked at her and walked 19 times. He really didn''t know what she was going to do, so he scratched his heart and lungs and asked¡° Is there something on your mind? I wonder if Ben hou can help? "


    As soon as her eyes brightened, she rushed forward and grabbed his sleeve. "Lord Hou is willing to help?"


    He was startled. "You, what do you say first?"


    "Sleep with me."


    ¡­¡­


    The next morning, Zi Ran had breakfast and was about to go to the workshop to develop it by himself. He was very excited about the sketch drawn by Jian Rong last night. When he passed Miss Zhuo Xi''s yard far away, he was surprised to see that Zhuo Xi opened the door so early. He couldn''t help being stunned. But the next second he was stunned and completely speechless.


    Because he saw his Marquis sneaking out his head from behind her, looked left and right, and then walked to his house.


    He grabbed a shadow passing by him. It was Jianyi. His fingers trembled and pointed to the left, "Jianyi, do I have eyes? That figure is our master? "


    Jian Yi looked, "it should be."


    "He, how could he come out of Miss Zhuo Xi''s room?"


    On the contrary, Jianyi was calm. "Aren''t they tired of being together long ago? I''m still in love in the carriage, not to mention here. Besides, if the Marquis is not married and the girl is not married, isn''t it just a beautiful woman? "


    Zi Ran was dispirited. It seemed that the story began to gossip from himself. However, Lord Hou, it was a time of peace in the world before. Now the crisis has not been eliminated and the future is uncertain. You still have a fiancee in Beijing. You are so anxious and start to harm the good girl of the National People''s Congress. Is that really good?

 Chapter 26

    Tips for getting rid of difficulties


    At this time, in the palace of the king''s palace in Kyoto, Wang Shangjing is frowning and looking at a big knife in the rough wooden box in front of him. He has to admit that he is completely in a dilemma now.


    He is the son of heaven and has been a crown prince for 30 years. He knows too well how many people coveted the throne behind him. Jing Yuan is now his only brother, but he still doesn''t feel completely safe. When Jing Yuan was very young, he noticed his father''s extraordinary love for this little tender baby. He was an adult at that time. Since he was set up as the crown prince at the age of eight, his crisis consciousness has never left him. The crisis consciousness comes from all directions, but there is always the strongest force from the six younger brothers. Therefore, this crisis consciousness increases with the father''s increasing love for the six younger brothers. He even did many unknown things quietly, and there was no way to eliminate this sense of crisis and fear. Even though he is now King of the new throne, even if he set up a private bureau to open mines, even if he risked being impeached by the officials, secretly deployed Zhao Ting and Wang Feng nearly sixty thousand troops to arrest him, but still let him escape. And sent him such a huge temptation.


    Earlier, he received the war report from Zhao ting and Wang Feng. He was so angry that 60000 troops could not destroy a mere 2500 people. It was said that these 2500 people also brought a group of slaves behind them. He deeply hated the two generals who were known to be brave in the three armed forces and experienced hundreds of battles. He not only let Jing Yuan go, but also lost nearly one-third of himself. He did not regret the lives of the soldiers who died in the war. He regretted that their blood was in vain and had no war merit. He deployed these soldiers with a secret order that only a few people knew. Failure meant that even he could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood. He could not give Zhao Ting and Wang Feng the defeated punishment, and he could not vent his hatred by rant or crying. He did not know how many royal ministers in the palace had their eyes. His emotional wind sways grass would arouse their attention and ask for the truth. When a new king ascends the throne, even a legitimate Prince is always full of turbulent factors. He couldn''t let this factor expand, so he had to do it secretly in order to be at ease.


    However, this deep-rooted hatred has not been vented, and the party concerned has given him a new problem.


    This is an unprecedented broadsword. The blade is thin, sharp and extremely hard. It is much better than bronze swords. As an emperor, he knew that the great innovation of a weapon could bring unparalleled advantages to the army. Whether this advantage exists or not is now between his ideas, which can make him win or lose.


    The state of Wuliang has just split from the state of Yudian. It has only gone through two generations. Not to mention that the four surrounding countries have repeatedly provoked tigers at the border, and the Treasury has long been weak and empty, which is difficult to support the battle in the border. Once the war breaks out, the belling country is in danger. At this time, this weapon with superior performance in all aspects was born in the air. It is simply a wonderful opportunity for God to establish his martial arts. It can frighten all countries externally and stabilize the turbulent political situation internally. This is a big victory.


    But if you accept the other party''s big knife, there will be a huge chip in the other party''s hand. The enemy with chips is always in the upper hand. He will return to the dangerous years of the crown prince, and will secretly plan a desperate killing without knowing the outcome. Most importantly, his recognition of the weapon and the chips in Jing Yuan''s hands means that he should bow to him, deny his previous actions, and punish King Zhao for a high sounding reason to explain to Jing Yuan. But he is the emperor. He is the Lord of the Wuliang country. How can he bow to him under the coercion of a minister, especially his own brother? This is a big defeat.


    The old eunuch Wuhe, who was sincere to him, came in and asked for instructions in a low voice, "Your Highness, the queen and empress."


    He was silent for a long time, and finally spit out a word, "Xuan."


    The Queen''s mother dragged her complicated long sleeves forward dignified, "knock and see you."


    "Yao''er, get up and come to me. Just a few days after giving birth? "


    "Wu Taiyi said," maybe it''s three or five days. "


    Sun Yao stood up, walked to him and knelt down. Seeing the knife in the middle of the table, he couldn''t help exclaiming, "this is the new weapon sent by the Marquis of Guang''an?" She stretched out her hand to touch it.


    Jing Tai stopped her. "It''s Yao''er. You''re about to give birth. You''d better not touch such a murder weapon."


    "I heard that when my ancestors attacked immediately, my grandmother was silently giving birth to the first king in the carriage. My Jing family child must be so strong and brave. Is it just a sword to fear? Sir, where is this sword winning? "


    "As I saw with my own eyes, the imperial guard took it and cut a big gap in his own bronze sword, and cut off a corner of my table with a knife."


    Sun Yao noticed that a corner was neatly broken on the upper left side of the table¡° Is this knife so sharp and hard? And it looks much lighter than a bronze sword. "


    She suddenly raised her eyes, exclaimed and covered her mouth.


    "Yao''er, did you think of it?"


    Sun Yao nodded.


    "Yes, not just swords. If this white iron is used to make arrows or spears and halberds, the enemy''s leather armor and wooden shield can''t resist at all; If you make a big cone to break the city wall, the speed of breaking the city wall will be greatly improved; It is made of armor and can be almost invulnerable when worn on the body. Most importantly, it is refined with white iron ore. " In fact, ordinary infantry cannot use swords. They use bamboo with bronze spears or halberds as their main weapons, and the arrows are also bamboo with bronze arrows. The main protective tools leather armor and wooden shield are extremely effective.


    "Is it extracted from our abandoned white iron stone?"


    "Yes, that''s the real advantage. At present, the output of baikou iron ore is far higher than that of the copper mine. Up to now, no one in the inner government knows the wonderful use of baikou iron ore. "


    "That is to say, if you master this secret skill, the military strength of our country will be increased at least several times!"


    "This is a sweet jujube thrown by Jing Yuan. It is also a poisonous fruit."


    "Sir, sweet jujube can strengthen the body and last for future generations; Although poisonous fruit can make people ache, it only hurts for a while. In the future, you can find another cure. " Sun Yao and Jing Tui are young couples who have helped each other for many years. This time, they came to enlighten him and let him make the right choice.


    "Do you want me to accept his offer?"


    "Not my concubine''s hope. You are the Lord of the state of Wuliang. I believe you can make the right choice in favor of the state of Wuliang. "


    "Just..." Jing Ti thought of writing such an imperial edict, which was as disgusting as swallowing a thousand flies. He has only ascended the throne for more than ten days, and his imperial skill is far from being refined.


    "Tomorrow is the fifteenth day. Why don''t you submit this matter to the court? Let Le Ke and Zhou Ji take the initiative to ask for merit for Guang''an Hou? "


    As soon as Jing Tai heard this, he was immediately happy. "Yao Er is really smart. This plan is very clever." Let Leke and Zhou Ji swallow the 1000 flies.


    So he called the five rivers outside and gave orders.


    Le Ke was awakened by the sound of shaking the door in his deep sleep. His wife asked him with frightened eyes on his side, "what''s the matter?"


    He patted her placidly on the shoulder to let her continue to sleep. He got up and heard the servant outside the door say, "Sir, the king declared you to enter the palace."


    When he heard this, he was shocked. Generally, there must be important events at the Grand Court meeting tomorrow. Is it not that the sudden military emergency requires him, the Sikong who is responsible for supervising the manufacture of vehicles, clothing and equipment, to provide weapons, vehicles and horses?


    He did not dare to neglect, and immediately dressed up and went into the palace to see the king. Waiting in front of the huge palace gate that had been closed by the key, he saw the big Sima Zhou Ji''s car coming from a distance and bent deeply.


    On the second day, the palace of political affairs staged a grand drama of the Korean parliament held on the 15th day of the first day of each month. The so-called Chaoyi means that all officials can express their opinions and discuss matters related to the affairs of the monarch and the safety of the people. As long as they are not too excessive, even if their words are fierce, they will not be guilty of tongue. Jing tuiwei sat on the Dragon chair and looked at the orderly two rows of Ministers below through the bead curtain. There was no wave on his face. Although he presided over the Grand Court meeting for the first time since his accession to the throne, his 30-year crown prince was not in vain. He attended the temporary court meeting twice a month and held several emergency affairs. He attended it hundreds of times. He is well aware of the procedures and the doorways that are not on the table. That''s why I wrote the script temporarily last night. Today we''ll see how the two main actors play.


    Gongsun Li, a doctor in the small Sima Zhong, was the first to stand up. The northwest frontier defense is a commonplace. He always needs an introduction, "Sir, northwest Changdi robbed the two border cities of Hequan county a few days ago. The general Bahrain has sent the 13th discount this year to ask for support for armaments and food. In particular, he asked for leather armor with armor. Changdi came all cavalry, and the soldiers'' original leather armor had been stabbed to pieces by spears and halberds. "


    Jing ti is secretly pleased. It seems that he can introduce the topic to the aspect he wants to discuss without too much foreshadowing. He knew that these old foxes were either worried about war or money and food all day. In the final analysis, war also depends on money and food.


    Cao Jia, the internal historian in charge of the millet tax, immediately set out, "Sir, Changdi came to plunder because of the drought in the northwest. However, Guanzhong is not very good. Since this year, there have been no more than four times of precipitation, and the whole Guanzhong is short of water. Forty two counties have reported. Seeing that the autumn tax is about to begin, but it is difficult to produce high yield in dry land, it is expected that the autumn tax will drop by more than 40% this year. The National Treasury is empty. We still need to cut expenditure to fill the national treasury until next autumn''s harvest. We really don''t have much money left to raise armaments in the northwest. " In his opinion, Changdi in the northwest is only plundering for food and grass, not attacking the city. Just keep the city. In addition, the army and the people in the northwest have reached an agreement to jointly resist the enemy and farm the fields, and food and grass will not be a problem for the time being.


    Gongsun Li quit and immediately threw a thunderbolt, "so, a few days ago, I heard that someone had mobilized 60000 troops and horses to travel hundreds of miles from Wulin pass and Heyong pass. How can internal history open a door for them? Sixty thousand people, I''m afraid to hear that these sixty thousand people have returned. Forty thousand people are not only the loss of the state''s millet tax, but also the great injury of our troops! "


    He burst into tears, "Your Majesty, the minister is a small Sima Zhong doctor. The 60000 people transferred from the suburbs of Beijing know nothing about Ma Chen, and I don''t know where the 60000 people come from. Sixty thousand people came and forty thousand returned, and twenty thousand soldiers were lost for no reason. Pity these 20000 soldiers and men. They return to their hometown without making an inch of merit. Minister dereliction of duty, Minister dereliction of duty! I would like to ask you to resign from the position of little Sima and wait for capable people. But please care and cherish me. Don''t be cool, sergeant. There will be no such absurd thing! " As the general manager of the military headquarters, 60000 people and horses sweep around Jingxiao silently. Although they don''t know what they want, in case of a bad heart, only 5000 guards in Kyoto are not enough. When he thought about it, he was in a cold sweat. He had to shake it out and let everyone in a cold sweat, so that it would not happen again in the future.


    Sure enough, immediately there were ministers whispering, all looking terrified and indignant.


    Jing Tai helped his forehead. He took a look at big Sima Zhou. He is the only Minister of the three princes, and the other big Sikong and big situ are still empty. Although he secretly ordered to dispatch these sergeants, he could not be effective without a few weeks.


    A few weeks ago, he was a military general. He stood out in an iron armour and immediately stopped talking. He was expressionless and sounded like a loud bell. "The emperor will decide the deployment of the army, and the reason will be known in the future. Why should you, the little Sikong in charge of military clothes, vehicles and weapons, bear the responsibility? " His big Sima hasn''t died yet. What''s the matter with you, little Sima Kong? With that, he glanced back at the ministers coldly. He was worthy of being a veteran of the two dynasties. This look was murderous and pressed down the heads of several young ministers who also wanted to participate in the discussion.


    Jing Tai felt that his part of the play had come and began with sympathy. "Now the Treasury is so short of money and food that I can''t sleep at night and think about it. Autumn tax is the main body of the Treasury revenue, and copper mine is the cornerstone of the Treasury. How many copper mines are there in China today? How much output is there in a year? Who can solve my doubts? "


    Le Ke hurried out of the line, "on your return, there are five copper mines found in Daqing, Lintan, Xuyi, Cai county and xibutang in Wuliang country. The mining volume of each copper mine is different, with a total output of about 1200 kg a year."


    "Le Sikong," the big Sikong was still vacant, and Le Ke, the little Sikong, became the only Sikong. Jing Jigui continued to ask, "how to distribute the output of 1200 kg?"


    Le Ke tightened his face, "four of the ten middle schools are used to supply drinking and banquet utensils for princes and nobles in the palace, three are used to make new cloth coins, and three are used to make weapons, vehicles, etc."


    "Four out of ten are used for drinking and banquet utensils? Only six cents are used to make weapons and cloth coins? "


    "Sir, there are a lot of utensils needed for sacrificial ceremonies in the palace. Only the Mingcheng tripod newly made the year before last to sacrifice heaven and earth weighed 175 kg. There was also a great demand for ritual bronze ware given and circulated among nobles. As far as weapons are concerned, red copper is needed to make baggage and class A. if weapons are really used, I''m afraid there are less than two out of ten. As for three of the ten coins, they were set by the emperor and have not changed for decades. "


    "I don''t know that copper mine is so scarce."


    "China is located in Guanzhong, and the output of copper mine is the highest among the five countries today. The output of red copper in Shenying, xuzou, datan and tengju is more scarce. "


    "The copper mine is so scarce. What if someone mines it without permission?"


    Mining copper is tantamount to digging money, which is strictly prohibited. Le Ke tried to express his surprise. It was really that his surprise had run out last night and could not be conditioned. Sikoxichi, who was in charge of the prison, immediately shouted with a look of awe, "who is so bold?! The former king once had a strict order saying that those who privately opened copper mines abandoned the city! "


    Jing Tai was very satisfied with this Xichi and sighed, "I have received a secret report. Someone found a copper mine in the back mountain of the king''s Mausoleum and mined it privately. It has been more than three months."


    Xichi was shocked again. "The verdant mountain where the king''s mausoleum is located is the dragon vein of the Wuliang country. This man actually opened a mine to destroy the dragon vein without permission. What''s his intention?! Who is this person? If you catch him, you will be sentenced to death! " Le Ke breathed a sigh of relief. Speaking from Xichi, his pressure was reduced a lot. But Xichi''s words aroused a lot of assumptions among other officials.


    Jing Ti said slowly, "I was worried about this before. As soon as the first emperor settled in cangcui mountain, there was a person who harbored evil intentions who appeared in cangcui mountain to destroy the dragon vein. The little man feared that this incident would disturb the emperor''s rest, and secretly dispatched some of the horsemen to catch and kill. Unexpectedly, I didn''t think about it. " He covered his face to cry.


    The officials suddenly realized that the 60000 sergeants came for this traitor. They immediately forgave the monarch''s behavior of laboring soldiers and hurting money, completely ignoring his so-called "some soldiers" as high as 60000 people. But someone immediately asked, "who is the person you can''t think of?"


    Prince Jing Leng, who had been silent all the time, stepped out of the line. "The third brother went to catch this man according to his father''s secret order and returned injured. He is still bedridden. This man is the sixth King''s uncle, the Marquis of Guang''an. "


    The ministers were in an uproar.


    Jing Leng continued to grieve, "the Marquis of Guang''an was ordered by the emperor to supervise the repair and garrison the mausoleum, and was also responsible for the move of the emperor into the mausoleum. I didn''t expect that he should steal from himself." He is no longer called Uncle Wang, which shows that he has drawn a clear line with him.


    Jing Tai was about to add a turning point, "no, you all blame him, and I blame him too. Yesterday, I received a note from him saying that he was not mining Copper, but white iron. "


    "Nonsense! Although the output of white iron ore is large, its refining utensils are brittle and easy to break, and produce red powder in case of water. It can only be used to make some farming tools. Although folk white iron ore can be mined, it is of little use. If white iron ore is found in the copper mine mined by the royal government, it will be discarded. " Le Ke''s scope of responsibility was clear, he replied angrily.


    "Yes, yes, the ordinary farmers know that white iron stone is not worth much money and is of no great use." Someone agrees at the bottom.


    "Aiqing, come and see this broadsword." He motioned to Wuhe to walk in front of the crowd with a wooden box.


    The ministers looked at the big knife in the wooden box. "It looks like iron, but it seems thinner." Someone said.


    "How could it be forged so finely?" Another asked.


    Someone answered immediately, "what''s the use of being thin? If it''s made of iron, it''s estimated that you can only cut flour? Ha ha ha. "


    "Cutting noodles is not enough. There will be red powder. I don''t know if the red powder is contaminated with flour. Is it poisonous? Ha ha. " Someone else answered.


    Jing Tui can''t help but feel sad. These officials can be regarded as the elite of the country. Is that all? He nodded. "Wu Qing has good eyesight. This knife is forged from white iron stone." Wu Sheng, the famous scholar and lower doctor of Xing division, bowed his hand and humbled for a moment, but did not hear the irony in his tone.


    The ministers are somewhat unbelievable.

 Chapter 27

    Jing Tai shouted, "Jiang Si." A bodyguard wearing a leather armor and a green sword immediately came in and brought a shelf. Jing Tai glanced at the wooden box. Jiang Si understood. First he took out the green sword from his waist and put it on the shelf. Then he picked up the big knife in the wooden box and cut it with a bang. Then Wuhe personally came forward and took down the green sword and replaced it with an arm thick latch. Jiang Si cut it with a bang. Before everyone''s eyes left the bronze sword with a big gap, they heard a click. The latch broke in two and fell to the ground. The people were stunned and couldn''t help being surprised as an artifact. The man who said it could only be used to cut flour was red with impatience.


    Le Ke, who was familiar with the principle and purpose of weapon manufacturing, stood in the middle and bowed to the ground, even sobbing. He trembled and cried and said, "Your Majesty, ministers are guilty. In vain, I served as a soldier, a vehicle and a weapon. I don''t know that there is such a skilled person in the world who can refine white iron stone into such a powerful weapon. Please include this person in the Shaofu governor''s weapons, vehicles and weapons, so as to stimulate our army and raise the prestige of our country. "


    Jing Ti had a little smile on his face at this time. He was very satisfied with the frightened look of all the ministers. He said, "Le Sikong, your dereliction of duty comes first and your disrespect comes later. Is it possible for you to invite Duke Guang''an? "


    Leke was shocked and finally entered the state, "what? This sword was offered by the Duke of Guang''an? "


    "Hou Guang''an said that he was immersed in strange skills all day. Three months ago, he found a large number of white iron stones hidden in the back mountain of the king''s mausoleum. He wanted to explore the usefulness of this stone. Unexpectedly, there was such a harvest, and I wanted to offer this secret skill to me in order to improve our weapons, vehicles and weapons. What do you think? "


    Le Ke was very happy, "the great righteousness of the Lord, this is the great fortune of the country of Wuliang. I congratulate you!" He was deeply prostrated.


    "I congratulate you!" The people had not yet recovered from the twists and turns of shock, and they echoed conditionally when they heard this sentence.


    Prince Leng didn''t expect such a turn for the better. Why didn''t the third brother disclose any information at all? Have they all been fooled by their father? He hesitated for a moment and fell in love with others.


    Gongsun Li was also very happy. "White iron ore is abundant in China. If it can be effectively used in military clothes, vehicles and weapons, it can enhance the strength of our army and save a lot of red copper to make cloth coins to fill the national treasury."


    Cao Jia was also elated at this time. "In this way, this autumn''s taxes are not afraid to be reduced. If the Treasury is full of money, it can also appropriately reduce or reduce autumn taxes for the severely affected counties and regions, and benefit the people."


    "That''s very nice. Congratulations." Others responded.


    Le Ke also said, "I think this matter should be distributed around the country of Wuliang. Anyone who has ingenious equipment that can be used for cars and clothes will be rewarded. So that the whole country can specialize in industrial technology and manufacturing. In the long run, our national strength will be greater than that of other countries. " He held back the idea of hiring skilled craftsmen at a high salary for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to put it forward at the most appropriate opportunity.


    "Si Kong means that I should not only praise the Marquis of Guang''an, but also spread my watch all over the world and congratulate the whole country?" Jing jigs the donkey along the slope.


    "I think if this watch can lead all the strange people and scholars in the world to serve you, the prosperity of our country will be just around the corner." But Le Ke''s words aroused many people''s opposition.


    "Nowadays, there are scholars, peasants, businessmen and businessmen who stick to their duties and live and work in peace and contentment. If they give special awards to craftsmen, it will inevitably lead to the covetous eyes of other businesses. Is it a great chaos if farmers don''t agriculture and businessmen don''t commerce?"


    There are also those who agree, "Yu Gong''s words are bad. Farmers are familiar with farm tools. If there are improvements, they can improve the speed and save energy. If these industrial technologies are rewarded and popularized, isn''t it beneficial to the people all over the country?"


    Another person raised concerns, "what improvements are effective? Some people''s congresses have changed to improve material efficiency, while others have changed at will to win the trust of the public. Does Sikong reward them? "


    Le Ke said, "nature depends on the size of the material effect."


    "How to judge the material effect?"


    "I think it can be judged by Shaofu history, Sikong, internal history and other people. If there is a dispute, it will be finally decided by the king. How about it?"


    The others stopped talking.


    Le Ke said, "I think that if there are capable people and strange people who use strange skills to improve my car clothes and equipment, no matter civilian slaves, each person will be rewarded with 20 cloth coins. What do you think?" This is the price he communicated with you yesterday. He quickly struck while the iron was hot and said it.


    For the officials present, a mere 20 bucks is not much. Since it is not much, there is nothing to discuss. Then the people stopped talking.


    "Very appropriate." Jingtai agreed immediately. The fly was so small that it was beyond his expectation. I don''t know how Jing Yuan feels with the 20 cloth coins¡° Then, this form will be drafted by Si Kong. " Jing Ti quickly kicked out the job of swallowing flies.


    "Then, marquis Guang''an..." someone put it forward. Obviously, he didn''t think that the reward of Prince Tang should be the same as that of civilian slaves.


    No one dared to speak. You are not happy when you are heavy, but you are not happy when you are light. Both sides can''t afford to offend.


    Le Ke had to lick his lips and said, "the sixth brother of Hou Naijun of Guang''an, there is no shortage of food fiefs. Although he built this wonderful skill, it is his duty to serve the country. Since you want to show the world, skilled craftsmen should be neither aristocratic princes nor civilian slaves. What do you think? "


    "That''s right." As soon as he declared his position, several angry ministers immediately stopped talking.


    He immediately worshipped again, "Your holiness." He breathed. The play was really tiring.


    At this time, Zhuo Xi was also performing a big play that stunned everyone. She spent the whole morning making a huge iron mill and two huge pullers. At this time, she was directing three young and strong miners to slowly rotate the iron mill, so in the surprised eyes of the people, a thin piece of iron squeezed out of the grinding crack. Similarly, on the drawing table on the other side, a pliers is pulling a wire out of the round hole in the middle. Although they didn''t know the usefulness of this thin iron sheet and thin iron wire for the time being, they never thought that the metal could be squeezed so thin, thinner than forged, and not afraid of being interrupted.


    Only Jian Yi was very excited to see the thin iron piece, and his thin soft sword had hope.


    However, after hearing his appeal, Zhuo Xi said that if it is made into a thin soft sword, I''m afraid the lethality is not ideal. Jianrong has shown Zhuo Xi all the drawings. Zhuo Xi selects several, personally demonstrates the process, makes samples, and then gives them to do. While the people were making weapons with joy, someone called outside the mine to announce the decree.


    Zhuo Xi, alone in the workshop, is concentrating on making an exquisite dagger for self-defense. Hearing the boiling sound after the brief silence outside, the corners of her mouth began to smile.


    After a while, Meng ran in, "sister, sister, we can go out!"


    Xiaobai, who was sleeping with Zhuo Xi while making iron, looked up lazily. After Meng went back to bed calmly.


    Zhuo Xi also took a calm look at the children who came in later, and saw Jing Yuan nodding at her from a distance, smiling and silent. She understood that their memorial had been approved. An emperor tolerated his inner selfishness with his huge ambition and accepted the technological revolution they brought.


    Jing Yuan stood at the end, leaning against the door, his eyes full of the shining strange woman. Mingming''s face can only be called beautiful at most. Mingming''s thin and small body looks only higher than qumeng, but why is she brighter than others in his eyes? So that he saw her at the first sight in the crowd?


    Soon Jing Yuan was hit on the shoulder by the cheering miners.


    Ma San deeply bowed, "Miss Zhuo Xi, we are free. We are no longer slaves, but carpenters."


    This is really a little beyond her expectation. She glanced at Jing Yuan. "Then you should thank the marquis. He asked the king for merit."


    Ma San quickly bowed to Jing Yuan, "thank you again for your kindness."


    Jing Yuan raised his hand. "You just thanked me. You know, it''s all the credit of Miss Zhuo Xi."


    "Really?" Zhuo Xi''s eyes were bright. Hearing the speech, she immediately came over and stretched out her hand, "bring it."


    "What?"


    "The king''s reward! Didn''t you say the credit is mine? I don''t want any other glory. Real gold and silver are the most real. Tell me, what did the king reward? " She said with a smile.


    Jing Yuan also smiled and nodded to Zi Ran. Zi Ran took a tray covered with yellow cloth from a bodyguard, "girl, please."


    Give it so simply? Instead, she hesitated and slowly opened the yellow cloth, "what?!"


    She''s angry. I worked so hard to teach you how to make weapons. I almost burned my hand into a roast pig''s hand in exchange for so many cloth coins? Where''s gold? Where''s silver? It''s OK to change into pearls!


    "Why don''t you cover me up?" She glanced at them and looked at Ma San specially. She found that they were all embarrassed. Is this what a king does? It doesn''t match his identity, does it?


    Ma San nodded and said for Jing Yuan, "girl, Wang did only reward 20 cloth coins, saying it was a table for the world. In the future, but anyone who has improved the military clothes, vehicles and equipment and improved the efficiency can be rewarded according to this standard."


    "Oh? Really? " Zhuo Xi was excited in an instant. Her eyes turned, "Lord Hou, please come and have a look."


    Zhuo Xi pointed to a new batch of weapons on the stage. There are twenty or thirty kinds of weapons. "Each of them here has its own attack advantages. If they are played one by one, will they be rewarded?"


    Jing Yuan laughed, "Zi Ran, it''s up to you. Attach the drawings drawn by the room and explain its performance one by one. You and Jianrong will take 10% of the reward, and the rest belongs to miss Zhuo Xi. "


    Jing Yuan said to Zhuo Xi seriously, "this time, I don''t know what General Wang will do, so I only said that mining was my idea. This refined iron was refined by their unintentional change of forging method, and the technology is in their hands. So I didn''t ask for work for Xier. Xi''er, don''t blame me. When you return to Hou''s house in the future, you can take the precious money and things in the house. " She immediately understood that he was protecting her, sharing the work of one person into the work of the collective, not only protecting her, but also protecting all the people in the mine. But I didn''t expect that the government would turn all slaves into craftsmen with a stroke of a pen in order to keep this technology from spreading. This is a good thing.


    But, "are you sure I can take it at will?" She asked with a smile, should the imaginary Hou house be magnificent? The road is paved with jade, the wall is pasted with gold bricks, and even the toilet is made of gold?


    Jing Yuan nodded and smiled. Is it a little closer to success?


    That night, Zhuo Xi asked Zi Ran to borrow pen, ink, silk and silk, and painted hundreds of new weapons and tools at night. She was very satisfied with these drawings. They were not drawings. They were all money in her eyes.


    When she yawned and left the temporary meeting room and returned to her bedroom, she keenly found someone in the dark room.


    She couldn''t see clearly in the dark, so she had to draw out her new dagger vigilantly and quietly touch the place where the breath came. Someone was lying in her bed, and she was very timid! She stabbed into the bed with an arrow and a knife. One of the people on the bed turned away, one hand stretched out and quickly turned two circles to grasp her wrist, and the other foot hooked her waist. She couldn''t stand stably, so she had to rush at the man. The man smiled and said to her ear, "madam, do you want to murder your husband?"


    It was Jing Yuan.


    Zhuo Xi angrily pushed him away, shook off his hand with his right hand, inserted the dagger into the scabbard and threw it on the table. There were no three moves in his hand every time. How powerful was his martial arts?


    "Thank you for your mercy, madam."


    She gave him a white look and lit the light. "Which one is merciful? Haven''t you seen me assassinate you with all my strength? "


    "You know I''m lying in bed, or you''ll throw a sugar bean directly. Right? "


    She said angrily, "I didn''t bring sugar beans with me today." Besides, with Xiaobai''s rhythm of seeing him hide again and again, even if the sugar bean is thrown on him, does it dare to bite?


    "..." he remained silent for a moment, lay back in bed, put his hands under his head and asked softly, "how have you considered that matter?"


    "What is it?" She didn''t react and took a water cup from the table to pour water.


    "..." he took a deep breath and read slowly, "hooligan Chi Chi, hold cloth and silk. When bandits come to trade silk, I will plan. "


    Zhuo Xi spat out. Although she understood that this sentence was a proposal, she thought he had completely forgotten that proposal for so long.


    He turned sideways and stared at her. "Didn''t you say that you wanted Ben hou to wake up that day? Would you also consider it? Ben Hou is sober now and has been sober all the time. So, the result of your consideration is... "


    Zhuo Xi quickly wiped the tea from the corner of her mouth. "You know I have an unknown origin. Aren''t you afraid to lead wolves into the house?"


    "Since benhou has chosen to believe you and choose not to ask the origin, benhou is naturally not afraid."


    "I wonder why? Because I saved you? "


    "Ben Hou wants to get married, and you are the only woman I can trust at present."


    She spits out another saliva. What''s the reason?


    She smiled, "Lord, there are many people in this world. You may be able to marry if you want to, but I''m not willing to marry if you want to."


    He just felt a basin of cold water fall down, sat up and sneered, "isn''t it? Since ancient times, marriage has been the order of our parents and the words of the matchmaker. Before that, we still hesitated before the crisis. Today, we have sent people to the Wu family to ask for the name. After Naji, we personally went to the Wu family to ask for the name. " Did he ask a woman to marry him again and again? And she didn''t marry him. What did she mean by letting him ¡õ ¡õ last night?


    "What? You want to marry me now? Naturally, the Wu family will not refuse your request, but I don''t know which lady you will marry home. I''m No. 6. I''m not the only concubine daughter who wants to come to the Wu family. Maybe the Wu family will make a legitimate daughter with tears of gratitude. Tut Tut, in this way, you certainly won''t lose. "


    Since the Wu family can forge a wealth document, it shows that this document is not difficult. It''s a big deal for her to declare her identity and find another way out. What the hell is the order of parents and the words of matchmakers? She could never spend the rest of her life with these eight words.


    "How do you want to marry?"


    "I need a reason to convince me."


    Well, if you have to ask for a reason¡° Ben Hou is rich, handsome, well-educated, strong and healthy without any diseases. He has neither bad hobbies nor promiscuous affairs. He has no concubines at home. " It''s the best match for women in the world.


    The room in the dark heard that it almost fell off the roof. Lord Hou, did self promotion blow itself like this?


    Zhuo Xi dug her ears and suspected that she had heard wrong. Seeing that he stared at herself brightly, she smiled, "since it''s so, why don''t you stare at me?" Put it out at will and you''ll receive countless handkerchiefs and flowers immediately, won''t you?


    "The Marquis has an annual salary of 200 Liang, 15 manors in the suburbs of Beijing, 300 mu of fertile land and a number of domestic slaves." Seeing that she was a little overwhelmed, he came to the spirit and made persistent efforts.


    Seduce her with money? At least she was a billionaire. She had set up a number of ancient castles and villas in Europe and America. She didn''t look up to his small manor fields. Besides, she won''t get rich herself? Why rely on men? But such a rich man is her best partner at the beginning of her career. So she said with a little excitement, "really?"


    Seeing the play, he also straightened up, "in addition, benhou has two county fiefs in the southeast, with 100000 food cities. Only 10% of the annual tax needs to be paid, and the rest belongs to benhou. Although he is far away in Liangzhou, he has saved a small fortune over the years. "


    Her words, "really?"


    "Absolutely true." He nodded affirmatively.


    "I will!"


    He leaned over excitedly and grabbed her hand. "Are you really willing to marry me?"


    She took out her hand and patted the back of his hand. "What are you thinking? I mean, I''d like you to take a stake in my luxury business plan and be my partner. You provide early-stage operation funds, and I provide technology and products. In the future, we will share 50% of the profits. "


    His heart immediately cooled down, or didn''t he marry?

 Chapter 28

    Finally, he thought for a moment and said powerlessly, "men should marry, women should marry."


    "I know, but this is for women who can''t support themselves. If they can''t rely on men, why must women marry?"


    Jing Yuan was silent for a long time. He bit his lips. He had only one last move. "He didn''t want to marry me. What did he mean last night?" Sleep and don''t marry? No inducement, but coercion.


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. "Last night? What happened last night? Haven''t we done anything? " It''s nothing. He won''t say anything like fame and honour, will he?


    Jing Yuan was silent again. For a long time, he sighed, "sleep." He closed his eyes. If a woman doesn''t care about the honor of life, what else can he use to threaten her?


    Zhuo Xi was angry. She was trying to discuss the shareholding with him. Unexpectedly, he only cared about his own problems¡° Go back to your own room. "


    He opened his eyes and said sarcastically, "why do you cross the river and tear down the bridge so soon?" Have the princes of any family fallen asleep and wrongly thought of countless reasons to ask for marriage but were rejected?


    "I don''t have insomnia today."


    "You haven''t slept yet. How do you know your insomnia has disappeared?" Last night, she actually explained the reason why insomnia needed ¡õ¡õ clearly. In the whole story, he admitted that what he cared most about was the man she said before. He decided to dig him out from heaven and earth. So he inquired about the man''s information from all angles, such as where he lived, any position, age, whether he had wives and concubines, but she vaguely said that he seemed to have nothing and everything, and muttered that "he can''t go back" and gradually fell asleep. Why, just sleep all night and get rid of insomnia?


    Zhuo Xi said confidently, "I''m a doctor. I can''t lose sleep. How can I know?"


    "Can the doctor not cure his insomnia?"


    "Doctors don''t cure themselves. What do you know?"


    "What kind of doctor is a doctor who can''t feel his pulse?"


    ... &%#* Zhuo Xi wanted to curse. How could she never know that the Marquis could carry like this? I can''t beat him again. I can''t say him now. She closed her clothes angrily and lay on the bed. After grabbing the thin quilt, she closed her eyes. Strange to say, she was very angry. She knew that anger was not helpful to sleep, but she felt the faint warmth nearby. Unconsciously, she relaxed her mind and sank into sleep.


    At this time, Jing Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, went down to bed with light hands and feet, made a gesture, and appeared in the room in black. There was an obvious smile on his face.


    "Don''t laugh." Jing Yuan regretted that he kept him outside the door early. "Don''t spread the news tonight. If you hear anything, you are the only one who asks!"


    "Promise." The smile on Jianrong''s face became more prosperous, and he only tried to keep his head down.


    Jing Yuan coughed and said, "from today on, your master is her. Would you like to?"


    "My subordinates will protect the girl to the death."


    "Protect her and never leave."


    "Promise!"


    "When will the craftsmen from the inner house sent by the king arrive?"


    "Early tomorrow morning."


    "Tell all the guards that she is not allowed to step into the workshop from tomorrow."


    "Promise!" There was a moment of doubt, but he carried out the order without hesitation.


    "Go now." Jing Yuan waved his hand.


    "Promise!" Then he disappeared.


    Jing Yuan turned to look at her sleeping face, leaned over and kissed her forehead. I wish you a dream. The damned man in her mouth must be found out. Why did he ask her last night what to do when he had insomnia? Why did she answer him so honestly last night?


    He was a little crazy, but with a long sigh, he left the door.


    When she got up in the morning, she found that Jing Yuan had disappeared and thought they were preparing to go out of the mountain and return to Kyoto. After all, after eliminating the crime of private mining, shouldn''t they escape from the mine that is easy to provoke major suspects for the first time and never touch the mountain again?


    But no, Zhuo Xi found that there was no one in the canteen and there was no atmosphere ready to go. I had to speculate that everyone had got into the hot workshop to make weapons. The cook was happily killing two chickens in front of the stove. Zhuo Xi asked her, aren''t you leaving today?


    The cook replied, "what are you going to do? My man has just been appointed a seventh class forging craftsman by the inner house. Our good day has just begun! "


    "Your man? When did you get married? What is the seventh class forging craftsman? "


    The cook in her early twenties bowed her head shyly, "just yesterday. That day, he saved my family in snake pit and took care of me a lot later. But he said that before, everyone was uncertain about life and death and their future was uncertain. He dared not propose marriage to my family. Now the charges have been removed, and in addition to changing from slave to craftsman, he is expected to earn a bite of food by craft. He asked me if my family is willing to marry him. I promised. Last night, we drank a glass of water to worship the earth under the bright moon. We have sworn to be husband and wife. "


    Zhuo Xi listened to her words and said it in a gentle way. Unlike the original ordinary slave, I''m afraid his man is not ordinary, "you man, can''t you be Ma San?" She asked hesitantly, wondering if there was anything like him among the slaves.


    The cook looked up in surprise and bowed her head shyly. "If the girl is really smart, she is indeed Ma San."


    Zhuo Xi took out the dagger just forged yesterday and handed it to her¡° Mrs. Ma praised me. I have nothing to lose now. It''s not appropriate to give this thing. This dagger was newly forged yesterday. It''s extremely sharp. It''s very suitable for dealing with livestock. It can save you a lot of energy. If you don''t dislike it, please accept it. "


    "I dare not abandon you. My man said that I should thank Miss Zhuo for getting out of trouble this time. Miss Da en, my husband and wife both know how to repay. This must be something you made carefully. How dare you ask for such a valuable weapon? " She has heard that girls are not allowed to enter the workshop today. Isn''t this dagger the only weapon she made by herself?


    "You''re welcome, madam. I''m afraid I''m a young lady from a reading family. Is this crude thing in your eyes. I really don''t think much about giving a big weapon on the wedding day. Well, I''ll look for another gift in the future. " She regretfully prepared to put the dagger away, but stretched out two hands and spread it respectfully, "girl, my wife doesn''t know the value of this knife. Ma San thanked Miss Zhuo Xi for her gift."


    Zhuo Xi quickly handed him the dagger, "Uncle Ma, Congratulations! This dagger is really worthless. I will make up another gift if I have a chance in the future. "


    "It''s a blessing for my husband and wife to get the dagger you made yourself." Ma San said respectfully.


    "By the way, I just heard from Mrs. Ma that you were ordered to be a seventh class craftsman. What''s the matter?"


    "Miss, I don''t know. The inner house sent craftsmen to learn the art of smelting and forging. I came here early in the morning to announce the order of the inner house, saying that since we are already craftsmen, we can join the inner house as seventh class craftsmen with a monthly salary of ten yuan. The empress is in charge of the kitchen, and her monthly salary is also eight yuan. Do we have any reason not to? "


    "Aren''t you trapped here again?" Zhuo Xi immediately thought of the word "Zhao''an".


    "I was trapped here before. I didn''t have food to wrap my stomach, I didn''t have clothes to cover my body, and I had to be beaten every day. Therefore, I was eager to leave. Now we are a craftsman and have a salary. The inner government will also provide accommodation according to the standard of regular mines. We want to stay in the mountain for a few years and save some money. If a child grows up to six or seven years old in the future, we can find a town to settle down and find a school for the child. "


    "Uncle Ma is very considerate, but I don''t know how to arrange after the craftsmen from the inner house come?"


    "The government is in charge of the mine affairs. Now everyone gathered in the workshop to listen to Lord Ziran explain the smelting and forging technology. The villain came out to take a bucket of tea for everyone. Then he met Miss Zhuo Xi. But it''s good to meet a girl. The villain is explaining something to the girl. "


    "What''s up?" Zhuo Xi was surprised.


    Ma San looked around and whispered, "girl, the first thing is that the Marquis ordered that the girl should not enter the workshop from today."


    "What?" Zhuo Xi''s eyebrows stand upright. It''s definitely revenge for public and private affairs.


    "At the same time, the Marquis also ordered that we should not divulge our learning skills. We only regard Zi Ran as our teacher. At the same time, in recent days, all words and deeds about the girl should be kept confidential. "


    Zhuo Xi was even more depressed when she heard this. What do you mean by hiding her? Not only the patent copyright is gone, but also an invisible person. Is such a great credit gone? Forget it. I''ll check with him later. Now let''s settle the matter of these craftsmen first. The so-called inner government doesn''t know what kind of bureaucracy it is. Won''t they send craftsmen to kill the cunning rabbit and cook the running dog after they learn this technology? Since they came all the way with her, they still couldn''t ignore their safety.


    She thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Ma, come with me."


    She took him to the temporary meeting room and took out more than 100 pictures she had painted and hidden last night. She felt that her heart was dripping blood. If she applied for a patent, it would be at least two thousand cloth coins. It''s too bad to contribute like this.


    Gritting her teeth, she handed it out reluctantly. "Uncle Ma, I think these craftsmen in the inner house are strange. For a long time, these drawings will be kept by you and taken out every ten days."


    Ma San looked at the drawing and his hands trembled. He flopped down and knelt, "girl, grace, villain, villain..." he broke into tears and didn''t know what to say. In fact, he also thought of the possible intention of the inner government, but he felt that the government also needed a group of people to build weapons. How could he kill them? Moreover, their fate has just undergone a major turning point, and they are extremely eager for a new work model and life mode. They are completely reluctant to give up because of small concerns. Now, zhuoxi''s move has completely eliminated their worries.


    "However, if you can apply for an award through the inner government..." before she finished, she heard a chuckle outside the door.


    Jing Yuan walked in and laughed, "in that case, you might as well keep your application."


    Zhuo''er pushed Ma San''s hand with a look of awe. "I don''t pay attention to the money. These dead things should make them more valuable."


    Jing Yuan laughed even more happily and turned over the hundreds of pages of drawings. The sound of TUT tut continued, "these can be worth more than 2000 yuan. It''s a pity that your salary is only 30 yuan a month. "


    Ma San was smart and immediately answered, "girl, please rest assured. Every month, villains will be sent to the girl''s house from the inner house to the reward. I don''t know where the girl''s house is?"


    "Now she is a good servant of my marquis. Naturally, she is in my Marquis''s house."


    Ma Sany patted his head, "yes, it''s the villain who is confused. Every month, food supplies must be transported from Kyoto. The villain will entrust all the reward money to the girl."


    When he said this, Zhuo Xi was a little embarrassed. "Uncle Ma, since the drawings have been given to you, you can save all the money. It may be of great use in the future." She blinked.


    Jing Yuan stopped laughing at her, coughed and said, "now the governor of the inner government has reached the mine. It''s not good for a woman to show her edge too much. I have ordered to keep all the things about you confidential. Although your credit can''t reach heaven, I will give you enough compensation. What luxury business plan did you say earlier? All the operating funds in the early stage will be provided by Ben Hou. How about it? " This is the result of his thinking all night.


    "Is that true?" Zhuo Xi''s eyes are going to shine.


    "Nature is true. You can go back to your house and clean up. Tomorrow, I will go back to Kyoto with you. "


    Ma San quickly congratulated, "although I don''t know what business plan, I think it must be an important matter for the girl. I''m here to congratulate you on your success. If you need villains in the future, please don''t be polite. "


    "Ha ha, definitely." Zhuo Xi nodded.


    "But..." Ma San looked at Jing Yuan and stopped talking.


    "There''s something else I can''t say in front of Ben Hou?" Jing Yuan was slightly angry.


    "No, no, Miss Zhuo Xi, there''s another little thing." Ma San hugged his fist and said, "although the child went to Meng has also changed from slave to craftsman, he has been clamoring to follow the girl for a long time and doesn''t want to stay in the mine. Moreover, he is still young. Even if he is employed by the inner government, he can only work hard to carry the ore. he is afraid of hardship. "


    "Then..." Zhuo Xi blurted out and suddenly remembered that others were serious here. How could he be the master at will? He could only ask carefully, "great mercy, great Marquis, isn''t it difficult for you to take in another snake craftsman in your house? He will help me take good care of Xiaobai. " She added.


    Jing Yuan smiled. "Naturally, there''s no problem, but he''s a man after all. He''s different from your master and servant." He didn''t say the next words and threw Zhuo Xi a "you know" expression.


    Zhuo Xi immediately understood, "understand, understand."


    Ma San also breathed out and smiled and left first.


    "Ben Hou also left. All the people in the inner house are in the workshop." He reminded me.


    She nodded, knowing that he wanted her to avoid them. Forget it, just stay inside and figure out her business plan. But she forgot to ask, will it start tomorrow? Or after that year''s appointment?

 Chapter 29

    Zhuo Xi never thought that these people were so crazy about weapon manufacturing. At noon, they came out in batches after a thousand calls. They took two bites of rice, drank a mouthful of soup and ran back to the garage. She never entered the workshop. From time to time outside, she heard cheers from inside. It must be that someone has successfully forged good weapons. She had to pack up her things and then pick up several minerals found here and mix them with some powder. Then he came out in extreme boredom and strolled into the kitchen to see that the cook had started making a fire and was ready to cook. She went up and said hello, "Mrs. ma."


    As soon as the cook saw that it was her, she quickly stopped her work and saluted, "girl, don''t shout like that. My mother''s nickname is Jane. If you don''t mind, you can call me Jane."


    Zhuo Xi followed suit, "Jen Niang, what are you doing?" She was surprised to find that zhenniang was scouring wheat for cooking. There was a chicken at noon. She didn''t react yet. She thought it was another pheasant called by the guards. Now it seems that the food and grass from the inner government have been transported?


    Asked zhenniang, zhenniang replied, "we are tired of eating wild fruit porridge these days. We don''t know what meat is for a long time. I cook two meals of meat first so that everyone can taste the meat. "


    Zhuo Xi looked along the line of sight indicated by Zhen Niang. Sure enough, she saw two newly killed ducks next to her, and the other corner was full of vegetables. It was summer and autumn. There were still a lot of vegetables and some mushrooms. There is a row of wine jars beside the wall in another row.


    "The steward said that the inner government would transport a truck of poultry and a pig every month, so that I would not hesitate to cook meat. The treatment of craftsmen is much better than that of slaves before us. " In the eyes of slaves, craftsmen are basically officials. As she spoke, Jane put the wheat and millet in her hand into the rice drawer. He scooped a plate of water and poured it into another big pot to prepare the duck. Zhuo Xi looked at her eyelids. The duck had a fishy smell. There was a lack of spices such as onion, ginger and garlic. She cooked a pot of soup like noon. She estimated that she would eat and vomit. She hurriedly shouted to zhenniang, "zhenniang, I once learned a method of cooking duck from the cook at home. Can you let me try?"


    Zhen Niang jumped and quickly waved her hand, "how can this make? It must stink. You''d better look at it. "


    "Then I say, you do it." Zhuo Xi didn''t want to make her hands stink.


    Jen Niang thought for a moment and smiled, "OK. Thank you, girl. " She didn''t say anything. She knew Zhuo Xi wanted to teach her to cook new dishes. Since she didn''t say it clearly, she would like to express her general thanks.


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. She taught her to blanch the whole duck in the water with hot water, then picked up the whole bronze pot in the stove, and asked zhenniang to go to the workshop to hold two bronze swords that were eliminated by the bodyguards, wash and wear them, bake the duck on both sides of the stove, and turn over while baking.


    There is no seasoning, only take some wine they drink, add some salt, add some chicken soup and mushrooms left at noon, and boil silk slowly. In addition, she asked zhenniang to smash the wheat particles with a pestle. She told zhenniang that Ma San could easily grind the wheat into powder by making a stone mill like a copper mill in the workshop when he was free. It''s a pity that we don''t have enough corn flour to make pancakes in the pan after noon. It''s a pity that we can''t bake them in the pan. When you see lettuce nearby, let zhenniang finely cut it into silk and blanch it, and then teach zhenniang to open the roast duck with her hand. When everything was ready, she demonstrated how to eat Beijing roast duck, rolled a plate and took it back to her room. She doesn''t abide by the decadent principle of different food for men and women, but she doesn''t want to meet with those strange craftsmen from neifu. It takes a lot of energy to deal with each other, which is easy to arouse the above ideas. Since Jing Yuan hid her behind, she was happy to hide behind.


    Zhenniang also took a taste of the Beijing roast duck. She was so happy that she almost swallowed it. She thought for a while, and hurriedly grabbed four ducks from the back of the poultry house and roasted them with gourds. Such a delicious food, so many people, at least one person can''t wait to eat one. Where can two be enough? There are already a lot of six, but people will certainly be too few. I wonder if the Steward will ask for more ducks after eating? No, leave him the best and tender skins on the duck legs. Just now, the girl asked if there were any rock sugar, soy sauce, ginger and green onions. Later, she also asked if the steward could come together. If so, it would be the best food in the world!


    Soon it was time for dinner, and there was still no one. Zhenniang took a freshly roasted roast duck to the door of the workshop and called everyone out for dinner. After a while, someone smelled Qixiang and hurried out. When he saw the golden roast on the table, he had to reach out and grab it. Zhenniang knocked off his hand and told him to wash his hands and wait for others to eat together. The man shook his hands casually in the basin and shouted to the workshop at his throat. Then several people ran to wash their hands and sat in front of the table. Zhenniang showed them how to eat. She immediately rushed up with her hands, recorded a few rolls and ate them. In an instant, a duck disappeared. These people are from the inner house. Chickens and ducks are not strange to them, but they are greatly impressed by this way of eating and claim to have eaten the best human delicacy. The rest of the people came at the sound, and they soon robbed the remaining five ducks, shouting that there were too few. Zhenniang took the opportunity to ask the steward''s suggestion to send more ducks to the inner house next month. The steward stared and habitually scolded. She thought about the taste and agreed to ask the inner house for instructions.


    The next day, when a group of people returned to the house, Zi Ran still asked Zhuo Xi to get on the carriage, and she hesitated. But when she saw Jing Yuan shaking in the gap of the car curtain with a thing, she immediately shook her tail and got on the car. It''s a book. She can read it now. Her ability to recognize Xiaoyuan was limited. There''s nothing on the way. Talk to relieve the boredom. Go to Meng also want to follow into the carriage, quilt ran a grip, sat behind the co driver''s seat.


    When Zhuo Xi jumped out of the carriage, a tall house door appeared in front of her, with four big characters written on it. From the stroke law of the font she recently learned, it should be four big characters of "King''s house of Guang''an". At the front door, a housekeeper led two rows of slaves to kneel on the ground. Mother Wu was second only to the housekeeper. Mother Wang is also impressively listed. Jingyuan is ready to step into the gate surrounded by a group of slaves. Zhuo Xi is still hesitant to join the crowd behind him. At this time, the sound of the horse''s hooves came from behind. Wu Xing dismounted and knelt down: "my subordinates have seen the king. My subordinates have delivered the new garrison map of the royal mausoleum to the inner house. I''m here to reply! "


    Jing Yuan looked back and was about to speak. Zi Ran, who was beside him, had pulled out a new sword and shouted, "how can I trouble you, deputy commander, to speak! What''s the matter when you enter the inner city in the name of submitting the map? " The sergeant shall be stationed outside the city according to the law and enter the inner city without order. If it is serious, it can be characterized as rebellion.


    Jing Yuan waved to Zi Ran, "don''t you just want to show off your newly cast iron sword?! Pack up quickly. Don''t lose yourself. " He turned to Wu Xing, "get up first. Ben Hou knows your intention. Well, Ben Hou will give you a day off and report back to the camp early tomorrow morning. The military order will come and get it tomorrow morning. "


    Wu Xing was very happy, "thank you, marquis!"


    Jing Yuan called Zhuo Xi, who was standing on one side, to come. Zhuo Xi couldn''t pull away Meng''s hand, so she had to come with him and salute. Meng immediately loosened her hand, saluted quickly, and then grasped her skirt tightly.


    "I''ve just been in front of the palace gate. Although I was favored by the king, I was able to go back to the house to change clothes first. After all, Wu Yishi is a newcomer. Everything has not been arranged properly. You should go back with your eldest brother first, rest for one night, and return to the house early tomorrow morning."


    Zhuo Xi looked at him strangely and pointed to his nose. Jing Yuan nodded imperceptibly.


    Wu Xing looked at her. "Thank you, marquis?! Six younger sisters, you have been away from home for a long time. The old lady and mother are very worried. "


    She had to bow down, "thank you, marquis."


    Wu Xing said, "my subordinates send you to the Marquis!"


    Jing Yuan nodded, turned and strode into the house.


    Wu Xing looked at Zhuo Xi and looked at the sky, "six younger sisters, wait a minute. Brother, go and rent a carriage nearby. "


    As soon as he turned around, he heard a voice behind him, "general Wu, wait a minute."


    The housekeeper like middle-aged man came.


    "It''s housekeeper Zhou. I don''t dare to be it or not."


    "General Wu, you are welcome. As the eighth grade deputy commander, you can be a general! My Lord said, Miss Zhuo Xi should serve the marquis. It''s not too much to send her to the marquis by the Marquis carriage to pack her bags. General, please come here. "


    "How does this make?"


    "Mr. Yi is a seven grade female official. You can take a carriage alone when you go out according to the system. Don''t be polite, general. It''s just to ask your adult to come back early tomorrow morning. " The last sentence he said to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi bowed her hand, "housekeeper Zhou, please bother." She was completely confused about their grades and rules, but it wouldn''t hurt to be polite.


    Sure enough, housekeeper Zhou immediately returned a big gift, "you''re welcome, Miss Zhuo Xi." He didn''t understand why Ziran reminded him to call him miss Zhuo Xi instead of Lord Wu.


    "Just, I wonder if he can come with me?" She pointed to the little hand she had been holding on to and asked housekeeper Zhou and Wu Xing.


    Housekeeper Zhou said immediately, "but at the girl''s command."


    That means she can decide whatever she wants?


    With that, they had come to the front of the carriage she had just got off, and a man immediately jumped out and fell on the ground. Just before the carriage arrived, Miss Zhuo Xi jumped out of the car. He was in a cold sweat.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the people lying on the ground and looked at housekeeper Zhou. Housekeeper Zhou was smiling and making a gesture of invitation.


    She had to say, "brother, please get up first. I can go up by myself."


    Housekeeper Zhou kicked the man, "why don''t you go away?"


    She lifted up her skirt a little, grabbed the door frame and boarded the carriage. She put her hand out to Meng and pulled him up.


    Wu Xing had no choice but to say goodbye to housekeeper Zhou. "Little sister is naughty, which makes housekeeper Zhou laugh. We''ll leave now."


    Housekeeper Zhou smiled, "general, go slowly, adult, go slowly." He turned to the coachman again, "old man, stay steady. If you fall Lord Zhuo Xi, you''ll feel better!"


    The coachman grimaced, "housekeeper Zhou, I understand."


    The carriage passed a noisy place and stopped. She seemed to hear someone shouting and crying in the carriage. She opened a corner of the curtain. It turned out to be a slave market.


    Wu xingrou asked in a soft voice, "six younger sisters, although there are ready-made servant girls at home, your personal servant girl Shu Yue disappeared a few days ago. Although she was accidentally buried in the belly of a wolf, you should not be too sad. It happens that you pass by here. If you buy a servant girl on the way, mother won''t say much if she wants to come. Do you think you should choose one here, or go home and let your mother send another competent one? "


    It was already very obvious that Zhuo Xi didn''t know why. He immediately jumped out of the car and looked at them one by one in the cage where traffickers held slaves. There were both men and women, and almost everyone was as thin as a wood. Qumeng jumped down with him, but shouted in a corner, "sister! Sister! Why are you here? "


    Zhuo Xi was also startled when she heard the reputation. The girl curled up in the corner was very much like the girl who lived and died in the tomb, but her skin was much darker, her face was pale and sick yellow, and there were some pockmarks on her face. Before he could react, qumeng grabbed her sleeve and said, "sister Zhuo Xi, please buy her, okay? She is my sister! "


    She looked at the girl''s eyes, completely unlike the expression of seeing her relatives. She leaned down and asked her, "do you know him?"


    Meng also looked forward to it. But the girl looked at them and shook her head blankly.


    Meng was worried, "sister, why don''t you know me? I''m Xiao Meng! Sister, you told your father to buy food, and then you never came back. I waited for you for a long time before I went out and was caught in the mine. Where the hell have you been? Where''s daddy? " He was already crying.


    The girl still stared at him without saying a word. She looked up and looked at Zhuo Xi and Wu Xing standing aside. She climbed over and whispered timidly, "Miss, although the slave is not his sister, the slave can do anything. Please buy the slave. The slave can only eat enough."


    Wu Xing shook his head. "It''s too thin." That''s a polite statement. She immediately understood, approached the railing, rolled up her sleeves and wiped off a piece of skin with her hands. She saw that the trafficker was not nearby and whispered to Zhuo Xi, "Miss, this is coated with ginger juice and alfalfa juice. The slave and maid are not ill." Then she quickly put down her sleeve. She touched her forehead again and scratched it unintentionally. Sure enough, the pockmarks on it were gone.


    He was a clever man. Zhuo Xi pointed to qumeng and asked, "he insisted that you were his sister. Why didn''t you go with the flow and recognize him? If you recognize him, I will buy you right away. Why do you deny it? "


    "If the young lady buys the maidservant today, the young lady is the master of the maidservant. The maidservant can''t deceive my master at the beginning. If the young lady doesn''t buy the maidservant today, she will be a stranger. It''s meaningless for the maidservant to cheat a stranger. "


    Zhuo Xi laughed and looked at Wu Xing. Wu Xing nodded approvingly and called the boss. The boss didn''t talk to the lion. He negotiated the price very readily and collected the money to let the girl out. It seems that she is a slow-moving product. She has eaten free food here for a long time.


    Zhuo Xi opened the slave document handed over by the trafficker. It turned out that the girl''s name was Xianglan, a very common and vulgar name. She asked Wu Xing, "can I change her name?"


    Wu Xing said strangely, "of course, just take this document to the government for remarks."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said to Xianglan, "in the future, you will be called Xianglan, Xiangjiang''s Xiang, blue''s blue."


    "Yes, Xianglan thanked the Lord for his name." Xianglan opened her arms and sobbed to Meng. She knelt down and kowtowed three heads.


    Wu Xing asked strangely, "which Xiangjiang River is Hunan?"


    There is no Xiangjiang River here?


    Zhuo Xi immediately replied, "there is a small river outside Zhuangzi where I used to live. People call it Xiangjiang River. I think it''s not very famous. Big brother may not know it. Hunan is also the Hunan of Xiangfei bamboo. " Xiangfei bamboo always has it?


    Wu Xing nodded. "Twenty years ago, Princess Huang Xiang became crazy about bamboo. She planted this bamboo in the back garden of her palace, raised it in the water and put it in the house. Unexpectedly, she also fed it. Many ladies in Beijing imitated the bamboo planted in the water and jokingly called it Xiangfei bamboo. "


    Xiangzhuo almost stumbled? And can bamboo be raised in water?


    Well, Xianglan is also good. It must be better than Xianglan.


    Wu Xing took the document in her hand, "tomorrow I''ll send the housekeeper to take the seal of the Wu family to the government, change the name, and then give it back to you."


    Zhuo Xi had no opinion at all. She nodded and was about to get on the bus. Wu Xing said, "six younger sister, you have been sent to Hetang other hospital for cultivation for nearly ten years since you were four years old. Now you have been away from home for too long, and your grandmother and relatives may have a vague impression. I heard that you left the other hospital. The old lady and Mrs. are worried. They are very worried. Go back today and comfort them. In the future, if you encounter any official affairs, the six younger sisters will not be divided. "


    It turned out that this was his real purpose to take her home to recognize people all night. What he said about his family was that he had been raised in another hospital for a long time, which saved a lot of trouble. Some people will naturally know when they should know each other. She immediately replied, "what the eldest brother said is that it''s a long way. It''s better for the eldest brother to talk to the younger sister in advance, so as to avoid being laughed at by the elders at home."


    "It''s natural. Xianglan, you should try your best to serve the young lady in the future, okay? "


    "I understand." Xianglan gave another big gift. Zhuo Xi looks at the busy streets around. If she talks so loud, she''s not afraid to be heard? The coachman doesn''t mind if others don''t say it?


    She looked at the coachman with eyes, nose and heart.


    Wu Xing didn''t care. He motioned them to get on the bus, rode on the carriage, gave orders to the groom, and whispered something by the window.

 Chapter 30

    After a while, the car stopped again. Zhuo Xi thought he was there. Xianglan opened the curtain first and saw that it was an inn. Wu Xing whispered, "six younger sisters, you are dusty. How about dressing here first and then meeting your elders at home?"


    Zhuo Xi sighed that Wu Xing was thoughtful. It''s true that she''s going to change and take personal leave to dress up.


    Soon after they entered the room, Wu Xing sent two sets of clothes and went to Meng Bei to stay downstairs for dessert.


    Xianglan washed away the dirt on her face and put on her new clothes. Unexpectedly, she is also a beautiful woman. They changed their clothes and went downstairs to an elegant room of Wu Xing''s bag. Wu Xing was stunned to see Xiang Lan dressed up.


    Buried in the dessert tray, qumeng raised his face and cried happily, "sister, come and eat."


    Xianglan stared at the dim sum in front of qumeng and couldn''t move his eyes, but he said with restraint, "young master, my maid''s name is Xianglan. It''s not your sister."


    Go to Meng''s flat mouth and cry again, "sister, where''s dad? Why don''t you want Xiao Meng? "


    Zhuo Xi sat down, stopped qumeng''s crying, pushed the dessert plate in the direction of Xianglan, and motioned her to do it by herself.


    Xianglan saluted, "thank you, miss. I haven''t eaten since yesterday. I''m really hungry. I''m not polite." Then she came forward, carefully took a piece of dessert, stepped back and ate slowly. Zhuo Xi saw that although she was very hungry, she restrained herself from swallowing and slowly chewed the food in her mouth. There was not enough dessert. Zhuo Xi called the waiter and ordered a bowl of noodles for Xianglan. Xianglan gratefully kneels down again. Zhuo Xi stops her and asks her to sit down and eat.


    She looked at Wu Xing sitting on the side and shook her head, "how can the slave and maid eat with the master''s house?"


    Wu Xing also motioned her to sit down. "Sit down. We don''t eat, nor do we eat together. Besides, Xiao Meng is not a young master. He is a young man who takes care of Xiao Bai."


    Xianglan breathed a sigh of relief and sat down next to a little stool.


    "Xianglan, tell me about you!" Wu Xing asked positively.


    "I have been a slave in Sima Jiqing''s family since I can remember." She just started, and Wu Xing hurriedly interrupted her, "is Ji Qing who was just convicted of Mrs. Hu''s witchcraft case last month?"


    Xianglan nodded, "exactly. After all the owners were arrested and put into prison, all the slaves were slaves, the men were used as military slaves, and all the women were sold. Because of timidity and cowardice, no one has been interested. "


    Zhuo Xi skimmed her lips. You''re not cowardly. You''re pretending to be ill to watch your words and colors and pick your master? Her speech was obviously not from her small family. It is estimated that she grew up with the official lady since childhood.


    Sure enough, Xianglan was embarrassed when she saw Zhuo Xi''s look. "The maid was afraid of being bought by any owner, so she tried to apply ginger juice herbs to make herself look less refreshing. It''s a blessing for me to meet you today. "


    The smile on Wu Xing''s face grew bigger and bigger. "If you are really a smart, six younger sister, Xianglan grew up in the official family since childhood. You must know deeply about those cumbersome rules, which will be of great benefit to you in the future."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and asked, "Xianglan, I''ve just taken office as the seven grade waiter of the Marquis of Guang''an. I''m also miss Wu jialiu, the young minister of the Taipu temple. But I grew up in another courtyard of the villa when I was young. I''m short of food and clothing, not to mention being taught. The road ahead may be difficult or full of dangers. Are you willing to help me? Advance and retreat with me, prosperity and decline together? "


    Xianglan stood up, took two steps back, knelt down and bowed to the ground, "since the maid has chosen the miss as the main, she must serve the Miss wholeheartedly, and the miss is the first. I dare not go in and out with my young lady, and I will prosper and decline together. But I have nothing to say where I need to go through fire and water. "


    Wu Xing took out a pill. "This is a great tonic pill handed down by our Wu family. Every servant who sells himself to our Wu family is qualified to take one."


    Zhuo Xigang wants to stop it. She always disdains to control others with poison. Wu Xing raised his hand to stop her.


    Xianglan knelt down and picked up the pill. "Since it''s the rule of the Wu family, slaves and maidservants naturally have to abide by it." Then he put the pill into his mouth, took his cup from the table, took a sip and swallowed the pill.


    Wu Xing laughed, "you are not only intelligent, but also courageous. You are a person who can be entrusted. I''ll give it to you. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her up. "Xianglan, brother, he''s playing with you. That''s an ordinary cough pill. It''s not toxic or tonic. Sit down. I''m really a country girl. I''ll rely on you to give me more advice in the future. "


    Xianglan saluted again. "You''re welcome, miss. I''ll do my part." She looked at qumeng, who was still unbelievable, walked forward and said softly, "Xiao Meng, although the maid is not your sister, I will treat you as my brother."


    Qumeng came up and hugged her, sobbing, "sister, sister..."


    Xianglan felt something wriggling between his abdomen. He immediately burst into a cold sweat and jumped to point to his arms, "that''s, that''s..."


    Meng happily held Xiaobai out, "sister, don''t be afraid, this is Xiaobai..."


    ¡­¡­


    Wu Xing then emphasized the precautions in a low voice, and urged Zhuo Xi to explain some preferences and habits to Zhan Jingjing''s Xianglan. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he boarded the carriage again and went to Wu''s house.


    In the palace. Jing Ti was holding a memorial and casually said to Jing Leng, "prince, I didn''t meet Guang''an Hou today. Is it too stingy?"


    "It can be seen that the king of the country is broad-minded, and the king of the people is broad-minded. It can be seen that the father''s mind is the king of the country. Three days later, there will be a grand court meeting, which can also accept the presentation of Hou Guang''an. What''s the difference between seeing and not seeing today? "


    "Having said that, I really misunderstood him before. Hua''er went to meet him, but he was injured and returned. I''m really sorry." This is the beginning of family affairs.


    "My father is serious. My third brother has always been obsessed with poetry and music. This time, he invited himself to Huling mountain villa to meet uncle six. Unexpectedly, Zuo Heng, the governor of the Imperial Army, was drunk and talked nonsense, which led to the conflict between the two sides, resulting in the third brother''s injury and return. Father doesn''t have to blame himself. " To find a scapegoat and block the long mouth of the world, you can have a smooth mood.


    The five rivers who served next to him also said, "the prince said very well. The Zuo Heng was jailed for Xichi the day before yesterday. Since Chen that day, he has drunk and injured the three princes by mistake. The file has been submitted yesterday. You can ask and behead him after you reply." He found the file from a pile of bamboo slips and handed it to Jing ti.


    "How''s your third brother?" With the scapegoat, Jing Tai was relieved, and then asked about his son''s injury.


    "The third brother is already well. It''s said that it''s all right. "


    Five rivers saw that they were relieved at the same time, but they frowned at the same time. They understood that although this Guang''an Hou escaped the disaster with cast iron this time, he must have a heart of sorrow. I''m afraid it will be more difficult to set up another bureau to deal with him in the future. Besides, now he still has 100000 army amulets. The current king and the future king cannot rest in peace unless this great trouble is eliminated.


    The next day, Zhuo Xi woke up in a vague shallow sleep all night, and then made a little movement. He heard Xianglan come in with a basin. Xianglan put down the basin, "Miss, are you awake? The young master has sent someone to ask three times. He is anxious to send you back to the Marquis house! "


    Zhuo Xi got up and said, "he''s in a hurry to go back to the camp!" Well, military orders are like mountains. Don''t let him be too late. She got up to wash and remembered the scene of arriving at Wu''s house to meet the old lady yesterday evening. Fortunately, Xianglan taught her the etiquette of kneeling down to her elders in the carriage yesterday, so she didn''t make a fool of herself. Mrs. Tai and her wife obviously disdained her, a common woman raised in the outer yard since childhood. Instead, they asked Shu Yue about her. After learning that she was buried in the belly of the wolf, they sighed a few times. The lady also asked her if she needed a servant girl. Zhuo Xi politely declined on the grounds that she needed to return to the Marquis house to serve the next day. The lady did her part and gave up when she refused. He also asked about the newly bought Xianglan. Zhuo Xi is a seven grade official after all. There is nothing to intervene in buying a servant girl.


    The two sisters, however, were extremely sarcastic and sour. Fortunately, she''s leaving today, and she doesn''t have to see things like them. The other two daughters of the Wu family have been married, and the other two brothers of Wu Xing are also out of office and not at home.


    She shook her head, threw out the bad experience of last night, and watched Xianglan take out a set of complex navy blue clothes with dignified style and top-grade material workmanship. It is absolutely impossible for Mrs. Wu to prepare. She asked Xiang Lan with her eyes. Xianglan spread out the clothes one by one, smoothed them, smiled and said, "Miss, this is the appropriate official service just sent by the Marquis house. There are eight pieces inside and outside. After washing, please move this way and put them on for you. "


    A set of eight pieces. It seems that this is the official official dress. The one previously worn in Huling villa may be an emergency temporary dress. Zhuo Xi was surprised. Fortunately, Xianglan was experienced and dressed them one by one slowly.


    "The breakfast maid has brought it. The old lady has sent someone to say it. Miss Nian will go to the Marquis house early in the morning. It''s better to leave as soon as possible. There''s no need to say hello. The lady also sent someone to say that she felt uncomfortable occasionally. The young lady doesn''t have to go to greet her. "


    Zhuo Xi asked again while eating coarse millet porridge, "according to the rules, I have to go to these two places to greet you every day?" Give her a break. She has never looked forward to working in Hou''s house like this.


    Xianglan said with a smile, "yes, miss. It seems that the old lady really treats the young lady. "


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "why can''t you see that madam is not?" They also let her not go to greet, but one is sincere and the other is false?


    "Miss, I don''t know. Madam is only appointed from five grades, which is not comparable to miss seven grades. If she doesn''t call herself ill today, she needs to come out to see her off. The old lady is different. She has long been a patent, and her seniority is there. "


    i see. Zhuo Xi smiled. Fortunately, she didn''t have a wife to come and she didn''t accept the gift. Otherwise, if she buried the root of resentment in her heart, she won''t lose.


    After breakfast, she walked out of the gate of Qingluo courtyard where she lived, and had been waiting for Meng to meet her outside, "sister Zhuo Xi."


    Xianglan scolded, "what''s your name! Be careful of your tongue! "Miss!"


    Meng frowned wrongfully, but did not shrink his mouth, "yes, sister Xiang Lan. Miss, just now miss three and miss five said they would come to see you off. As soon as they saw Xiao holding Xiao Bai, they were scared and left immediately. "


    Xianglan was very satisfied with the performance of qumeng. He patted his head and asked if everything was ready?


    Qumeng replied, "housekeeper Wu has collected all the medicinal materials sent, and my wife has sent someone to send a lot of clothes and materials, which have been loaded into the car."


    Xianglan nodded, "Miss, the old lady asked me to send some ornaments. They are all playthings, so I didn''t show them to miss. They are all packed in the baggage and have been pulled to the car."


    Zhuo Xi nodded her head and poked the small official hat like a fan on her head. She wanted to find a mirror to see her funny appearance. Xianglan had laughed and blossomed on one side, "Miss, you look very dignified in your official clothes!"


    She swaggered back and forth for several times, as if she had found a little feeling. Just about to get a ride, a servant hurried to her, "miss six, the young master has been waiting for you for two hours, and is drying outside the door at the moment!"


    "Front ~ square ~ belt ~ ah ~ road" Zhuo Xi pointed forward with his index finger and middle finger, shouted a Peking Opera tune, and went out with Xianglan and qumeng laughing together.


    When I went out of the door, I really saw Wu Xing already riding on a horse. He looked like he could start immediately. Seeing that she finally came out, dressed in rigorous official clothes, thought about it, jumped down again, personally opened the curtain for her, saluted her and asked her to get on the bus. He knew she didn''t like stepping on people''s stools, so he specially prepared a small stool in front of the car. Zhuo Xi nodded and got into the carriage. Yesterday, the carriage of Hou''s house has passed. This time, it is the carriage of the Wu family. The specification is completely incomparable with what she sat yesterday. The cushion is also hard. Xianglan took qumeng and sat in front of the carriage loaded with goods. Wu Xing still rode beside the carriage all the way, chatting with Zhuo Xi one by one.

 Chapter 31

    Zhuo Xi returned to Hou''s house. Sure enough, she walked through the side door.


    The anniversary housekeeper waited at the side door early in the morning. Seeing that Zhuo Xi got out of the car, he quickly greeted her and led her all the way to tingshui Xuan where she lived. For a man who positioned himself as the private housekeeper of a marquis, owning such a large private house is far beyond her imagination. She thought that she might live in the small Qingyuan in Huling villa. She had two small bedrooms and didn''t even have a turning hall. Listen to the water Pavilion, but it is a five room three Hall, with a font arrangement, and an empty yard in the middle. The only drawback is that the tingshuixuan, as its name suggests, is being built on the edge of a small lake. The small lake is not like an artificial one. The green water flows quietly. You can hardly see any water flow, and you can''t hear the sound of water flow. She really listened carefully. She didn''t seem to hear any sound. She didn''t know what it was like in the dead of night. Zhuo Xi looked at the bed by the window. Her sleep was so poor. If she could hear the sound of running water all night, would she still sleep? The most hateful thing is to listen to the name of shuixuan. Obviously, I can''t hear the voice, but I have to call it "listening to shuixuan". Isn''t this a strong psychological hint?


    Xianglan liked the environment very much. She placed herself in the east wing of the master bedroom and left the west wing to qumeng. Since she knew that Xiaobai who went to Meng to take care of was a white snake, she completely ignored the poor eyes of the little boy and stayed away from him.


    After settling down, Zhuo Xi was startled by the fact that he brought the slaves in charge of the whole house to see Zhuo Xi on the anniversary. When she saw Mother Wu and mother Wang standing at the forefront of the team, she paid special attention to it and was startled again. It turns out that the two kings of Wu are nannies who serve Jing Yuan. Although they are masters and servants, their feelings are better than mother and son. That''s why they went to Huling villa to live with Jing Yuan regardless of their old age.


    After she had a general understanding of the division of labor, she left the two mothers of King Wu to talk about the past. Only then did she know that they had left as planned on the first day¡° The old slave watched the horses and carriages of the LORD go forward, and the ox cart that the old slave took caught up. Somehow, the Marquis turned back a fast horse. The old slaves learned afterwards that those days were so dangerous. Fortunately, there were girls here, which saved the Lord from danger. " Mother Wu wiped a handful of tears. Zhuo Xi was surprised that her eyes looked like those of her daughter-in-law. She was surprised and hurriedly dragged Xianglan over, "mother Wu, stop crying and let this little hoof follow the joke. This is Xianglan, the close fitting maid I just bought yesterday. "


    Sure enough, her attention immediately shifted. "I just bought it yesterday. How can I serve it personally? No, no, I''m free now. I''ll help you. "


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t wait to see mother Wang standing aside without expression. She leaned over and said, "thank you, mom. Xianglan is a newcomer and has no clue about everything. Please ask your two mothers to teach her. "


    Xianglan stared at her. Shouldn''t these things in Hou''s house be taught to the young lady? What does it have to do with her? Before she could understand why she had been taught instead of the young lady, she was wrapped away by the two mothers of King Wu.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, waved to the figure far away from Xianglan, exhaled and sat on the chair.


    Zi Ran came in with a smile. He obviously saw it.


    Zhuo Xi glanced sideways at him, "why, just reported that the leaders came to inspect before they officially went to work?"


    Zi Ran touched his head, "what leader? What inspection? "


    Zhuo Xi lay on the table and said angrily, "the leader is the boss. Has adult Zi Ran come to assign tasks to me?"


    Zi ran quickly waved his hand and said, "your boss is not me, but my Lord. Sir, let me come and have a look. Is there anything else you need? "


    Zhuo Xi was inspired by the speech, sat up and asked excitedly, "if so, can you all provide it?" Since she came to this inexplicable age, she always wanted to have an almighty God to jump out and ask, what do you need?


    Zi Ran said proudly, "although the Hou house is not as rich as the palace, there are few things that the Hou house can''t find. Say it, girl. "


    "I want a laptop, the latest pigo mobile phone and its charger, and preferably a tablet. There is nothing in that kitchen. There should be an oven, refrigerator, electric pressure cooker, dishwasher and air fryer. The toilet should have toilet and water heater, double cylinder massage bath room. There can be no TV in the room, but the air conditioner must be installed. These are ordinary things. You can do the rest. " She said, looking hopefully at the Almighty God.


    Zi Ran looked at her blankly, bravely ignored the slight laughter in the air, and asked very sincerely, "girl, what are these ordinary things you say? What electricity, what machine, why can''t Zi Ran understand any? "


    The image of the Almighty God was broken in an instant. She took a smoke from the corner of her mouth, fell back on the table and fell back to reality. She waved weakly, "forget it, you don''t understand." Although these things are common in the 21st century, they are completely Arabian Nights in ancient times.


    "Girl, how do you make these things? Whether the girl can draw a drawing, Zi Ran will try his best to make it for the girl. " Since he learned the skills of forging swords and knives, he felt very confident. He always felt that many things could be made.


    Zhuo Xi hehe, "even if these things are made, they can''t be used." Nothing can be used in a world without electricity.


    Zi Ran smiled, "girl Gao Zhi, dare to ask these things..."


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes, sat up and interrupted his inquiry, "Zi Ran, I don''t need anything for the time being, but if I don''t need anything, can you move it for me?"


    Zi Ran was happy again in an instant. "If a girl doesn''t need it, she can naturally move it away so that it won''t hinder your eyes here."


    Zhuo Xi stood up, walked to the window, opened the window, pointed to the lake outside and said, "it."


    "What?!" Zi Ran stared.


    "Move the lake away." Zhuo Xi repeat.


    Another light laugh came from the air. Zi Ran was annoyed and said angrily to the air, "Jianrong, I''ll leave it to you." Then he hurriedly said, "please be on duty tomorrow, miss. Have a good rest", and left. Jianrong turned his eyes in the air and joked. This place was selected by the Marquis after he looked at the topographic map of the Marquis house all night. Is it easy to choose thousands of people? If the lake is drained, isn''t the Lord''s hard work in vain?


    As the saying goes, what you are afraid of comes to what you are afraid of. Zhuo Xi''s most worried thing has happened. In the daytime, Xianglan was taken to pre job training. She had to take her to Meng to clean the cleaned house again, inside and outside. This is her habit every time she goes to a new place. On the one hand, let yourself rest assured that there is no dead corner of health and safety. On the other hand, let yourself work harder and strive for a good sleep at night. But since entering the water Pavilion, although she couldn''t hear the sound of water during the day, she always suspected that she would hear the sound of water at night, especially in the dead of night. So sure enough, when she was lying in bed counting the 18th 999 sheep, she finally got up in despair, completely opened the window and closed her eyes. She felt that there were thousands of sheep swimming at the bottom of the quiet lake. She didn''t know whether the sound of water she heard was real or illusory, but she knew that most of it was psychological. She just couldn''t damn control her sleep.


    After a while, Xianglan knocked on the door. Maybe she heard her get up and open the window, "girl, do you want to drink water?"


    "No. Go to bed. "


    Xianglan went back.


    After a while, she knocked at the door again. Obviously, she heard her head hitting the window lattice, "girl, are you okay?"


    "It''s all right. I enjoy the moon." Zhuo Xi stroked the big bag on her head and looked at the huge moon in the sky. She wanted to cry without tears.


    When Xianglan knocked on the door for the third time, Zhuo Xi was angry and shouted, "come in and sleep with me!" Whether it''s male or female, just test whether it works or not.


    So the door opened and a man came in. He took off his clothes wrongfully and lay on the bed without saying a word.


    Zhuo Xi looked sadly at the moon in the sky, closed the window, isolated the nonexistent voice from the outside, and lay back in bed. As soon as I got into bed, I immediately felt something wrong. The breathing sound on the bed is clearly a heavy man. Where is Xianglan. She conditionally wanted to move. The man on the bed stretched out his hand and Zhuo Xi stopped the attack.


    The familiar voice in the dark came, "why don''t you do it?"


    Zhuo Xi put down her arm and skimmed her mouth. "I can''t beat you again. It''s boring to start."


    Jing Yuan smiled, "can''t you sleep? Why aren''t you happy when Ben Hou comes to sleep? "


    "Do you think I should be happy to be intruded into the boudoir by a noble Lord in the middle of the night?"


    "Didn''t you just order Ben hou to come in and sleep with you?"


    "I thought Xianglan was outside." Thinking of this, Zhuo Xi vomited blood.


    "Since ancient times, sleeping with men and women is the right way in the world. How can you sleep with a woman? It doesn''t matter to destroy yourself. It''s a sin to destroy Xianglan. " Jing Yuan is in a very happy mood. It''s worth it. He deliberately chose such a room in order to destroy her sleep. It really worked wonders.


    Zhuo Xi is too lazy to quarrel with him. Sleepiness has been overwhelming. She doesn''t want to lose this sleepiness because of external factors. She doesn''t want to think about why this person can completely relax his body around him, let sleepiness sweep through and directly fall into the dark.


    Zhuo Xi slept directly until dawn. When she woke up, she was twining her limbs with Jing Yuan. Although her pajamas were still neatly worn on her body, she seriously suspected that she had been completely eaten up last night. She kicked the man away with her limbs and shouted, "Xianglan, help."


    Xianglan, who was waiting outside, threw away the copper basin and pushed the door in, but only saw a white corner of his clothes flashing by the window. She rushed anxiously to Zhuo Xi''s bed, "Miss, are you okay?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled with a stomachache holding the quilt. "It''s okay. It''s a cat." She took a breath and stopped laughing. "Bring up the water. I want to wash my face."


    Xianglan said suspiciously, "I saw a figure clearly."


    "Shh!" Zhuo Xi put her finger on her lips. "Nonsense, what you see is a cat."


    Xianglan understood, "it''s the servant who is dazzled. It''s really a cat. I''ll go and get the water again. " She said and went out.


    Sure enough, he''s on the road. Zhuo Xi held the quilt and smiled for a while. It''s good to feel full of sleep! It''s been a long time since I slept so heavily. But she smiled for a while and worried again. Can she rely on him to sleep in the future? Occasionally, it''s nothing for a day or two. If it''s a lifetime? It''s terrible to think about it! No, she must try to move! Hou''s house is so big that she can''t move to a remote corner?


    After breakfast, Zhuo Xi rewrites a seven day recipe and gives it to Xianglan. After a period of surprise training, she can basically write ordinary fonts, not to mention Jingyuan gives her a medical book as a dictionary. Unexpectedly, Xianglan soon came back with the recipe and said that no one knew about 30% of the ingredients. Previously, there was a lack of ingredients in Huling villa. She specially asked Shu Yue to write a recipe according to some ingredients in the villa. When she gets here, she''ll be welcome. Write what''s expensive and what''s easy to write. Especially thinking of Zi Ran''s nostrils facing the sky, he started even harder. You can buy it even if you don''t have it in the house? Xianglan shook his head pointing to the "Cordyceps sinensis, Tianshan snow lotus, Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng and bird''s nest" on the silk and said that he didn''t know what it was. In this era, the medicinal value of these advanced supplements has not been found? Zhuo Xi helps the forehead. No wonder the food materials in the warehouse in the villa are so poor. It''s not the difference between the house and the villa, but there are only a few food materials in the market. And these precious health care products are just lacking. Why don''t you even know what Pleurotus ostreatus and kelp are?


    Zhuo Xi had to ask Xianglan to go to the back kitchen to record all the ingredients and come back. Xianglan promised to go. Although they may not use their own recipes, their responsibility is to do their homework.


    When Zhuo Xi was on duty at the linyue Pavilion in Jingyuan''s residence, he looked at the words on the plaque and wanted to laugh. Obviously, he only had his back against a small rockery, and the workmanship was extremely rough. It was simply a pile of rubble stacked in a mess, which also means "Yue"? Don''t ruin the artistic conception of this word, will you?


    When she entered the courtyard, she found that there were kitchens, tea rooms, chess and card rooms on both sides, and at a glance, she knew that these places were her main office places in the future. She couldn''t help feeling sad at the thought of here. Sure enough, Zi Ran saw that she consciously went to the teahouse first, stretched out her thumb and reported to the master.


    Is it worth it? It''s not just making tea, cooking snacks, occasionally serving pen and ink, arranging cars and horses when traveling, etc. in a word, it''s a little secretary who goes out and lives at home. She looked at the jasmine tea she had made with Shu Yue, rushed out a sweet taste, and took a comfortable deep breath. Zi Ran brought up a set of white jade carved tea set from the back. Zhuo Xi picked up one with appreciation and shone on the sun. The jade cup showed soft light. She boiled the tea set before pouring in the freshly brewed jasmine tea. The glittering and translucent jade cup is lined with light yellow tea. She looks at it and wants to taste it. She thinks that Ziran is next to her. Forget it. Unexpectedly, Zi Ran said, "I said this set of cups. If you like it, I''ll give it to you. If you serve tea, just give me a copper cup. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately sounded the alarm bell and said in righteous words, "how does this make Hou Ye enjoy the best things naturally. Although it''s just a cup, it feels moist and has good heat preservation. It''s most suitable for drinking tea. Let''s leave it to the Lord. "


    Jing Yuan''s voice sounded from behind. "This set of tea set came from Xifeng state last year. It is said that it was carved from warm jade under the snow mountain and lake of Xifeng state. The cup and pot were taken from the same jade body, which can be said to be invaluable." Zhuo Xi''s eyes lit up.


    Zi Ran hurriedly saluted Jing Yuan, told him to leave and hurried away.


    Zhuo Xi turned around and gave a gift, "Lord, please sit down." She motioned him to sit down on the small stone flower in front of him, then slowly poured the tea into the jade cup and pushed it to him.


    "Why not use a jade pot?"


    "From a professional point of view, the jade pot can only contain clean water or warm wine. When it is used to make tea, it can not gather temperature, nor absorb fragrance. It is easy to burn and crack for hot water, but damage the jade pot itself."


    "Oh? In Xi''er''s opinion, what kind of pot is better? "


    "Purple sand is the best, followed by pottery, CELADON JADE again, and gold and copper at the end."


    "What is purple sand?"


    "A pot made of specific clay. The purple clay pot does not press the taste of tea, does not seize the aroma of tea, nor does it damage the Tang Qi of tea, and the heat preservation time is long. "


    "Where can I find it?"


    Zhuo Xi shrugged. He was really inquiring about her origin all the time¡° I don''t know. If I meet you in the future, I will tell you. "


    "Xi''er, you are not a slave. You don''t need to call yourself a slave. You and I can be free. Just talk the way you like. "


    "Yes. Great. " Zhuo Xi has long felt tongue twister.


    "It''s a pity that I can only abandon such a valuable jade pot."


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "I don''t sleep well at night and can''t drink tea. It''s better to give me water."


    "Poor sleep?"


    "Exactly. Lord Hou, I just have one thing to ask. "


    "No."

 Chapter 32

    "I haven''t said, why not?" Zhuo Xi said anxiously.


    "I know. Don''t you just want to change the yard?"


    "Since the Marquis knows that the Marquis house is so big, is it difficult to change a yard?"


    "It wasn''t difficult, but when you came, it became difficult." Jing Yuan gently turned the jade cup in his hand and said.


    "What does that mean?" Zhuo Xi was a little confused.


    "Xi''er didn''t know. Last night, the southwest corner of the inner courtyard was flooded, and the yards in the West and South were burned down."


    "Listen, the water Pavilion is in the East. What about the north?" Burned? Why didn''t she know there was a fire last night?


    "There is a Qingyuan Pavilion in the north, which is very remote..."


    "No, no, it doesn''t matter to be far away. Walking more can also exercise. " Zhuo Xi said hurriedly.


    "Unfortunately, housekeeper Zhou just reported that Qingyuan Pavilion may have been uninhabited for many years. A acacia tree in the corner of the courtyard grew too tall to bear the weight. It broke down and collapsed the main house of Qingyuan Pavilion." He listened, and sure enough, the man hiding in the dark disappeared with a cry, and his face showed satisfaction.


    What he didn''t know was that Jianrong was pulling Ziran to fly to the southwest corner. While flying, he called Jianyi. The three met. Jianrong said quickly, "Ziran, you go to burn the Furong house in the West; Jian Yi, you go and cut down the acacia tree behind Qingyuan Pavilion on the back, so that it just collapses the main house. If it doesn''t collapse, you can do it yourself; I''ll go and order the Hefeng hall in the south. "


    Jian Yi shouted, "why am I cutting trees? You two light a fire? "


    Jianrong despised him, "because you are the heaviest."


    At this time, Zhuo Xi sneered, "then in this way, there is only the linyue pavilion where the Marquis lives, right?" What''s the matter? What else doesn''t she understand so far?


    He took a sip of tea and said slowly, "linyue Pavilion is located in the middle of the inner courtyard. It''s still a distance from the lake. It shouldn''t hurt your sleep. Xi''er can think about it. "


    Zhuo Xi said twice, "last night, there was water in the southwest. How could I know?"


    "Ben Hou was around last night. You must have slept well in Xi''er. If you don''t believe it, look, those two places are still smoking! "


    She looked up and smiled angrily. Is that the cigarette just lit? Didn''t you hear the cry just now? Shameless, too shameless. At the same time, it was a big loser. Three houses were destroyed in one sentence.


    She took a deep breath, "Lord, since the three courtyards in the southwest and North have been damaged, they must be repaired. Slaves and maidservants can repair them without spending any money in a month. Do you believe it or not? "


    "Miss, I''ve seen how to use things. But if Xi''er doesn''t spend money, how can she buy repair materials? Can Xi''er do tricks? " Naturally, he didn''t believe it. Even if she had the power of heaven, she couldn''t make materials out of thin air.


    "I can''t juggle, but I can buy materials for free from the merchants who provide materials."


    "Ha ha," Jing Yuan laughed, "Xi''er, you may not know the current price. If you ask for a piece of food and a ladle of drink, others may be able to give it. But if you repair these three houses, you need at least 3000 Bu coins, which ordinary six grade officials can''t earn all their life. Where will businessmen be willing to provide it for free? "


    "Lord, you don''t have to worry about these. You just need to lend me the craftsmen in the house. I won''t spend a penny to repair these three houses in three months. In these three months, how can I make it and what kind it will cause? The Marquis shall not intervene. Of course, I will certainly not harm the interests of the Hou house, and I will also pay attention to the confidentiality of other parts of the Hou house. "


    "What if it can''t be repaired?"


    "Lord, let''s make a bet. If I have repaired it, please allow me to move any repaired room. How? "


    "OK. But there is something in the house. You can ask for it as long as it''s not money. What if you lose? "


    "There is no such possibility."


    "Everything is possible."


    That''s right. "Well, if I lose, Lord hou can make a request to me. As long as I can do it, I will follow."


    Three days later, the sound of ramming earth to hit the foundation was first heard in the houses in the west of Hou''s house. Zhuo Xi stood on the cleared space in high spirits and commanded the craftsmen to broker the soil and dig the land.


    Most of the houses in this era were made of wood, and the walls were supplemented by bricks and stones. On that day, when Zhuo Xi made an on-the-spot investigation, she had only one feeling - that Jingyuan was a complete black sheep. In order to force her to live in tingshuixuan, she was willing to really burn down the two houses. It was a real burning down. All the beams and roofs were burned down, leaving some broken walls. She sighed a few times and decided to rebuild it on the ruins first¡° Girl, the first batch of stone and wood have been transported. " Kou Niang hurried in through the door.


    She was the first person who heard that the Marquis was going to build a house. The notice of "free solicitation of building material suppliers" written by Zhuo Xi was posted outside Hou''s house for two days. On the third day, Kou Niang finally knocked on the side door of Hou''s house, and was ceremoniously welcomed by Xianglan to tingshuixuan where Zhuo Xi lived. Zhuo Xi was overjoyed to see that the woman who came to bid was a smart and capable woman. They were locked in the house and plotted for a long time. They went to the inner courtyard of Hou''s house to check the situation on the ground. They clapped their hands excitedly and signed a contract full of five pieces of paper. So Kou Niang, who was originally only engaged in the timber business, became the only general contractor of the three model houses in the Hou house in an instant, and Zhuo Xi was the technical guidance. Xianglan kept a record. Although it was in the clouds, she was also very excited. She couldn''t imagine how the house in Miss''s idea would be realized. Once it was realized, it was absolutely unique in Kyoto.


    After this detailed discussion, Kou Niang strongly demanded to use her own craftsman team. Such good technology trained the craftsmans of the Marquis house in vain, but did not carry it forward. It was a bit outrageous. Therefore, with the consent of Jing Yuan, Zhuo Xi then signed a supplementary agreement with Kou Niang on the construction team. In an instant, Zhuo Xi became the technical director with 30% of the shares of the construction team. The next day, all the craftsmen of Kou Niang''s "log firm" entered Hou''s house to start work. The craftsmen of Hou''s house had already wrapped and isolated linyue Pavilion and tingshui pavilion with large pieces of wood overnight. Zhuo Xi looked at the two meter high wooden partition wall and sneered. When my mother built the third floor, you had to wrap up the windows.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the charming Kou Niang and said with a smile, "I''ll see how big the stone is. The base wood can be polished for standby. "


    As she led her back into the yard, Mrs. Kou introduced a young man standing next to her and said, "this is the son of my husband''s uncle. His name is Kou Andie. Although I am now in business, my husband''s family is a craftsman. Although my ancestral carpentry is not unique, it is also fine. After my husband died, my uncle felt pity for my orphan and widowed mother who had no source of livelihood, so he gave me the wood facade they tampered with. An Jie was very interested in building wooden houses since he was a child. He studied from yuan an, a wood making master in neifu for three years. Yesterday I was talking about him. " Her daily income from timber business is low, and the cost of this project is quite large. Even if she takes out all her savings, she can''t eat it. She has to borrow part of the printing money from the black market and then borrow part from her uncle. If she can default on other expenses, she will default. But Uncle heard that she was going to borrow money to build a house for Hou''s house, so he strongly demanded that her son Kou Andie come in for an internship and promised to lend her money unconditionally. When she was hiring people, she naturally agreed.


    Zhuo Xi also understood that the status of businessmen in this era was low and their income was far lower than that of scholars, peasants and workers. Therefore, Kou Niang''s uncle will sell the wood business like chicken ribs without any objection. I don''t know if Kou Niang operates properly after this cooperation, will the wood business become a pastry in their eyes? However, looking at the clarity of Kou Anli''s eyes, she really needs a chief designer and chief builder. Let''s try it first.


    She stopped, turned and walked back, pointed to the deep pit where the craftsman was driving the pile and asked, "according to the childe, how deep should this wooden pile be driven?"


    He poked out his head and looked carefully, "this is a sandy soil layer, which should be pile six eaves nine. If the stake is driven six feet, it can support a house nine feet above the ground. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "if it''s based on stone?"


    He was stunned. "Does the girl mean to stick a log on a stone?" What he just said is the weight-bearing of this method.


    She shook her finger. "No, the method of deeply wedging a log into a stone hole is out of date. The girl will set up foundations and piles with stone columns at the same time, and then connect the stones on all sides and pave them into a square to become the load-bearing wall foundation of the house. " She has seen the original foundation of the house. Only the stone holes embedded in the soil are flattened with wood, and how deep they can be embedded, and then buried in sand and soil to make minimalism.


    Kou Anli thought for a moment, and his eyes suddenly brightened. "If the stones can be firmly connected, the bearing capacity can be greatly improved. If the pile is six feet, the building can be at least three feet high. But how can stones be firmly connected? "


    "Of course, you can see it tomorrow." Zhuo Xi asked her answer and nodded with satisfaction. It''s good. Three feet is nine meters. You can build three floors.


    An Jie was very excited and deeply worshipped, "please teach me." He almost felt that a breakthrough revolution in architectural technology was coming.


    She was a good young man who made progress in school. She stretched out a hand and said, "Hello, my name is Zhuo Xi. You can call me Zhuo Xi."


    Kou Anli was a little at a loss. He was stunned and quickly arched his hands. "I should serve you, sir. I dare not."


    "There''s nothing to dare," Zhuo Xi withdrew her hand and shrugged her shoulders. "You are the nephew of Kou Niang, and you seem older than me. It''s not appropriate to call me an adult, so call me Zhuo Xi. Since Kou Niang introduced you to take charge of the construction, you must be very professional. Then, let''s talk about the details of the confidentiality agreement first. "


    "Confidentiality agreement?"


    "That is, adults only impart technology to you. You can''t impart technology to others at will." Kou Niang is already familiar with her vocabulary.


    Kou Anli quickly saluted again. "I understand that the secret skills passed by adults will not be passed on to the outside."


    "No, not only can it not be spread out, but the relevant details of our project also need to be kept confidential. Come on, let''s talk here. " Zhuo Xi took them to a temporary firewood house in the backyard. No way, her listening Water Pavilion was isolated, so she had to use it as a temporary office. The construction site has the standard configuration of temporary activity room.


    The next day, Zhuo Xi received the first batch of iron bars, nails, rivets, hammers, axes and other tools and utensils sent by Ma San from the mine. She drew a drawing a few days ago, indicating the number of people sent to the mine for Ma San to build. Since the mine has been nationalized, all the artifacts she built should be purchased at a marked price. Of course, it will only be Kou Niang who pays.


    She asked people to smash the stones, bury the iron bars in the middle, and then mix fine sand with glutinous rice slurry for irrigation to make a huge stone column row. The finished shape was used as the foundation, and then the same stone column was used as the foundation every other meter, and then the solid soil was buried before she began to make the floor. After that day, Kou Anli was completely possessed and lived in the temporary office. Zhuo Xi often drew structural drawings in the house, while Kou andI could immediately match materials and tools, especially seeing the great use of iron nails, and sighed that it was time-saving and labor-saving. At this time, there are already rough bricks and stones. Zhuo Xi uses large rocks as the load-bearing wall and thinner bricks and stones as the partition wall in the house. The windows and eaves are still made of exquisitely carved wood. The roof is made of tiles painted by Zhuo Xi and fired by brick burning craftsmen. When the tiles were delivered that day, andI squatted on the ground and studied the usage of the tiles for a long time. I really don''t know why this sheet should be made into an arc. Until Zhuo Xi showed him how to stack tiles, he was overjoyed immediately.


    Sure enough, when the building was repaired to the second floor, Zi Ran came to protest. He said that the craftsman stood so high that he had a panoramic view of the whole terrain of the Marquis house. Is there any privacy? Zhuo Xi smiled calmly, "Lord Hou occupies my bed every night. Do I still have privacy?" She could only find a small couch to put by the bed, but somehow she would run to the bed in the morning. Besides, the linyue pavilion has already sealed the windows and doors. Even the corridor is extravagantly surrounded by silk. Even the telescope can''t see what the people inside are doing. It''s called no privacy?


    Son ran touched his nose and made a gesture of closing his mouth and wiping his neck towards an stile whose eyes were about to pop out. Seeing that he shrank his head wisely, he left and was ready to return the original words to the marquis.


    Although she was very busy here, Zhuo Xi didn''t forget her own work and had to go to Jingyuan on duty from time to time. In order to balance work and spare time, she and Jing Yuan agreed to be on duty for two hours in the morning and afternoon in these three months, and she was off work in the rest of the time. Jing Yuan actually agreed, saying that there should be fresh dishes every ten days. Since she taught zhenniang to cook Beijing roast duck in the mine, Jing Yuan has been thinking about her cooking. She not only often asked her to cook delicious food, but also sometimes ordered dishes. The first time she was asked to remake Beijing roast duck, Zhuo Xi satirized him, what "why don''t you feed the cat" and "silver needle? Where is the silver needle? " Wait a minute. Zi Ran begged grandma to sue Grandpa, saying that he wanted to catch the cat from Huling villa to vent his aunt''s anger. Zhuo Xi twisted her waist and rolled a piece of roast duck and put it on the plate in front of Jing Yuan. Since then, it was out of control. There must be a new staple food every day, so that Zhuo Xi had to modify her recipe and rack her brains to teach some delicious dishes to mother Wang. After tossing for half a month, we finally had more than a dozen dishes to eat in turn, and everyone calmed down for a while.


    After the decoration of the first model room, Zi Ran came again. This time, he asked Kou Niang to be present and said that he had something to say.


    "Kou Niang, you''ve worked hard."


    "Oh, Lord Zi Ran, what are you talking about. I have the opportunity to build a house for Hou''s house. It''s really a blessing I''ve cultivated for several generations. Where can I talk about any hard work. " The flattery on Kou Niang''s face made Zhuo Xi instantly think of the Bustard in the brothel and shiver.


    "This house costs you a lot, doesn''t it?"


    "Look what you said. It''s really an eye opener for my family to build such a luxurious building for the first time. What''s the cost? The three floors of this building cost a total of 1100 bucks. The main reason is that the stone is cheap and saves a lot of wood, but after all, the three floors are built, and all kinds of materials cost a lot. "


    Zi Ran was surprised, but his face suddenly became serious, "how many craftsmen are there in your group?"


    Seeing that he looked bad, Kou Niang stammered, "a total of 36 people."


    Zi Ran asked again, "are these craftsmen registered by the government?"


    "That''s it, that''s it. They''re all craftsmen with books to check. Sir, they... "


    "Princes and dukes always build houses and tombs. It''s all the craftsmen who signed a dead deed in our house. Now you not only use living contract craftsmen, but also build high-rise buildings. You must have known the terrain of Hou''s house for a long time? Do you know what happens to these craftsmen? "


    Kou Niang and Kou Anli on one side were stunned. "Plop", they knelt down, "Sir, they have signed a confidentiality agreement and will never say it." Kou Anli''s logic is clear. Kou Niang has been paralyzed on the ground.


    "Thirty seven people, how can you guarantee that no one will reveal it? As long as one person divulges, the safety of the Marquis cannot be guaranteed. If something happens to the Marquis, these 37 people and you two are irreparable! "


    Kou anding had no face. He looked at Zhuo Xi and suddenly lit up a little hope, "Miss Zhuo Xi, you still have two houses not built. They can''t die!" But if both are built?


    Everyone present thought of the loophole of this sentence.


    "No, no, they can''t die in the future." Added coantian incoherently.


    Zhuo Xi also sighed, "they must not die.". Not only more than thirty innocent lives, but also the training results she has worked hard for a month. This team must become a pioneer in the reform of the construction industry. How can it die so easily? Besides, she also holds 30% of the shares of this team. Although she has no income in the past three months, it is just around the corner to become a big real estate developer in the future. How can she say that it will be gone without it?


    Thinking of this, she suddenly understood¡° Yes, they will not die. "

 Chapter 33

    She turned to Zi Ran, "Zi Ran, why should you scare her? Tell me what you want. Kou Niang will promise. " I just hope he doesn''t want the lion to talk.


    Zi Ran fuzhang, "the girl is really smart."


    She pulled Kou Niang up from the ground. "Kou Niang, if you let you give up some of the 60% shares, are you willing?" Kou Anli took a share with his father''s money.


    Kou Niang was confused and didn''t come out of the panic. She just nodded casually.


    "Come on, how much do you want?"


    Zi Ran stretched out a slap.


    "50%? Is that too much? " I knew he was a loser, but I didn''t know he was so black.


    "No, no, no, not too much." Kou Anli has recovered his mind. If he doesn''t say 50%, he has to go. As long as he keeps himself and their lives, it''s worth it¡° I''ll give up half, aunt. You can give up forty and a half, okay? " He grabbed Kou Niang, shook her vigorously, and carefully told her again. Kou Niang slowly recovered and stared at Zi Ran, "Sir, what he said is true?"


    "It''s true. But the LORD said, this 50% is not for nothing. These 37 craftsmen, together with you two, must sign a dead deed with the Marquis house in order to protect your life. "


    Zhuo Xi was a little confused. She robbed both shares and people. She also called "it''s not for nothing?"


    But as soon as they heard this, the other two suddenly came alive, "is that true?"


    "Of course it''s true. Tomorrow you can take the craftsman''s book and the housekeeper Zhou, and the Shangguan government will handle the dead deed."


    They were overjoyed and thanked, "thank you, marquis! Thank you, my Lord! "


    Zhuo Xi looked even more confused. She had seen those who robbed money and people, but she had never seen those who were robbed and were still smiling.


    Sure enough, the next day I saw that Kou Niang led 37 craftsmen to the government with housekeeper Zhou. When they came back, they all looked happy. Only Kou andI followed unhappily.


    Zhuo Xi grabbed Xianglan and inquired for a long time before he knew that the dead contract craftsman of the Duke''s family was an iron rice bowl for life. He could receive a rich monthly salary every month whether he lived or not. If the craftsman died carelessly in his prime, if there were children under the age of 14, he could continue to receive a monthly salary until he reached adulthood at the age of 14. Craftsmanship is a very unstable status. The government''s identity authentication of craftsman depends on your occupation. If an ordinary craftsman has not been employed by others for three consecutive years, the government will think that he has lost the craftsmanship of this skill, and will re judge him as a slave. Therefore, this job is very attractive in this era of beating, scolding and selling slaves. It not only means a rich and stable life, but also means that your personal safety has been guaranteed by your master''s family and will not become a slave because of unemployment. However, if a craftsman with a good reputation doesn''t have to worry about being hired, instead, he makes a lot of money by passing on technology. Some senior technicians prefer to give up the dead contract provided by the government and voluntarily take on some scattered work. Their income is unknown to be several times higher. The Kou family is such a carpenter family. The carpentry technology of their ancestors has been handed down for five generations. The descendants of the Kou family are very moist under the big tree of the carpenter family, and few of them voluntarily sign into the Duke''s family as a carpenter. Therefore, under the high pressure of Ziran, Kou anding agreed to enter the house and sign a dead deed, but he was still not very happy. His wish was to build more and better houses with his own hands, rather than live comfortably in the house, and occasionally do some minor repairs.


    Kou Niang smiled and became a flower. With a little knowledge of wood construction, she also changed from slave to craftsman, became the contractor of the special construction team of the Marquis house, and signed a dead deed. Her child was relieved at last. Moreover, the task assigned to her by the Lord Hou is to take over the work for the construction team. 15% of the profit of each project belongs to her. She can play the sign of the special construction team of the Hou house. What project can''t be received? She saw Kou Anli''s mind and revealed the girl''s plan to him. He was happy in an instant. As long as houses are built continuously, it doesn''t matter whether the craftsman is a craftsman or not.


    It was also the 15th Dynasty meeting. Jing Yuan stood at the forefront of the team, looking at his nose and heart. Since he was painlessly promoted and suppressed by Jing Tui at the last imperial meeting, he really didn''t want to participate in the imperial meeting any more. Therefore, he didn''t participate in the imperial meeting in the morning, but he had to participate from Sangong to Jiupin sesame officials, and he really couldn''t refuse. He knew that the king was embarrassed to see him now, and he was also embarrassed to see the king himself. Although the two sides explained to the world the brother''s fighting in dark Di Li with a misunderstanding, he understood that the long sword extended by the king to the only remaining brother was still hanging in the air, ready to fall down and cut his neck at any time. Jing Hua apologized to him in public at the Grand Court meeting last time, saying that it was a mistake to believe in villains that led to the killing of the royal family by blood. She asked for a salary and donated the savings in the government to pursue the wounded and wounded soldiers. This completely covered up the secret edict issued by Jing ti. Secret edict? You don''t need to explain to the people all over the world, but the number of casualties in the army is too large. How can a small left cross carry this big black pot? The prince also seconded and donated a pension. Under the burning eyes of Cao Jia and Gongsun Li, the king regretted that the misunderstanding frightened the sixth brother, agreed to the request of the crown prince and the third prince, and banned Jing Hua for a month as a warning.


    Since Cao Jia knew that the mine in cangcui mountain smelted iron ware harder and more durable than bronze with baikou iron ore, the haze of the tight state treasury over his head dissipated. Especially after he knew that there were not only a large number of baikou iron ore but also a large number of copper mines in the mine, his whole road was light, and he couldn''t help raising his head and straightening his back when he saw other officials. He immediately sent someone to block and monitor the mine to ensure that all copper mines were extracted and immediately sent to the official kiln to make copper coins. At the moment, he was happily reporting to the king the revenue of the state treasury in the past half a month.


    Jingtai was also very happy, and the atmosphere of the hall was immediately jubilant.


    However, Leke was still gloomy. After Cao Gao proudly expressed all his views, he took out a stack of drawings drawn in parchment from his arms and sent them to him. "Sir, this is the tool transformation drawing applied by Kou Anliu, the craftsman of Guang''an Marquis house. There are 108 pieces in total, which are construction tools. I can''t rule. Please make a decision. "


    Jing Yuan''s narrowed eyes suddenly opened, and his eyes shot at the stack of sheepskin rolls in the king''s hand. 108 pieces, the corners of his mouth could not help but hook up. Sure enough, it''s her style. If you don''t sing, you''ll become a blockbuster.


    Cao Jia, the head of the national treasury, who had just been in high spirits, immediately rushed up with anger, "108 pieces? Who has such great talent? You''re not fishing for fame, are you? Has the utility of these tools been tested? " As soon as he heard that the number was so large, his head was big. Although each piece was only 20 yuan, more than 100 pieces would cost more than 2000 yuan. This is not a small number.


    Seeing Cao Jia jump out, Le Ke swept away the previous haze. Yes, the reward fee is naturally paid by the state treasury. There is no reason to go out of his Qingshui Yamen. Before that, Duan Jiji in the mine sent some transformed weapon drawings, each of which looked very good. The quantity was not large, and he immediately gave a reward. Unexpectedly, this time, the man named Kou Anlian sent more than 100 pieces at one time. He really can''t bear it.


    He immediately set out, "report to the king, there are detailed descriptions on one side of these things. According to the craftsman''s application, all 108 transformed tools have been well used and verified in the construction of the new building of Guang''an Hou mansion."


    "Oh, sixth brother, have you built a new house in your house? What is a building? "


    Jing Yuan sighed, "my Lord, the southwest of my younger brother was inexplicably flooded and burned up last month, so I had to find a house building master in Beijing to rebuild it. Unexpectedly, the newly built house is three stories high, so it is called Lou Wu. "


    Jing tuiqi said, "according to what you said, is it the beginning of building? You don''t know how high this building will be?"


    "Yes, I promised not to intervene when I entrusted this man-made house. Unexpectedly, the buildings were far more than my brother''s imagination. "


    "Oh, what is the origin of this man? Can you make the sixth brother trust the full authority? "


    "It''s Kou Anlian. He was born in a wood making family. He has worked on building houses with broken wood since he was a child. It''s not a day''s work to come here. He figured out 108 things through his hard study for more than ten years. He just responded to the commendation order issued by the king before, so he went up to apply in order to promote and benefit the people. My younger brother has seen some things in the new house. It''s really convenient. "


    "In that case, five rivers, after going down to the court, you will go back to the house with your sixth brother to visit the so-called new building, and then let the Kou Andie carefully explain the advantages and disadvantages of these instruments, and I will make a final conclusion." Five rivers take orders.


    Le Ke was overjoyed. "My Lord, I have been very interested in building works since I was a child. In order to truly judge the use and value of these instruments, I ask you to grant me permission to go with me."


    Jingtai was about to answer, when he saw that Zhou Ji was also in a horizontal line, and a pair of big feet banged on the floor tiles. "I''m also very curious about Zhou Ji. Please allow me to go with you."


    In addition to Zhou Ji, who rarely said a word about military affairs, the following ministers looked at him one after another, "Duke of Zhou, why is this?" A small official asked curiously.


    A few weeks later, when he glanced obliquely, he saw Wu Sheng, a scholar and lower doctor of the Xing Department, with a loud voice, "as people often say, stand high and look far. The reason why our frontier defense building is called the building is because it is so high that you can look into the distance and know the enemy''s situation. Now, except that the moat in Kyoto is three feet high, all the houses in the city are no less than nine feet. Even the Baiyan pagoda, the tallest in the Forbidden City, is only more than two feet high. I heard that the new buildings in the Marquis house are as high as three feet, which can have a panoramic view of the scenery in Kyoto. How can I miss such a magnificent scene? "


    As soon as they said this, Wu Sheng and sikoxichi jumped out at the same time and looked at each other. After knowing what they meant, Wu Sheng took a step back, "please, sir Sikou."


    "Your Majesty, the minister is in charge of the criminal prison, while Wu Sheng is also responsible for the defense of the whole Kyoto. The minister and others request to go together and have a look at the scenery of Kyoto."


    These old foxes, seeing that the scenery is false and the terrain is true, Jing Tui smiled, "well, since there is such a highland, I will go with you to have a good look at the scenery of the river and mountain. The rest of the people are willing to go with them and see them together. "

 Chapter 34

    On this day, Zhuo Xi took Xiang Lan and Meng Chu to go shopping for the first time since he came to this era. Xianglan doesn''t feel much. It''s very exciting to go to Meng. He hardly ever really wandered around the city and had no concept at all. Zhuo Xi was also very excited, not because she wanted to go shopping, but because Jing Yuan changed his stingy face for the first time. With a big hand, he threw her a bag of money and said that he would buy whatever he liked. If it wasn''t enough, just write it down in the account of the Marquis of Guang''an. She was so big that she spent a man''s money for the first time, and she was very righteous. She threatened him with 37 lives to take 50% of the shares of the construction team. Even if she bought ten or eight streets, it was not enough to calm her anger.


    So she walked around excitedly, looked around, and strictly implemented the three general policies: buy everything that was interesting to Meng, everything that looked good to Xianglan, and everything that she thought was useful. Soon she regretted that she had taken two people on a trip, but it was not difficult for her. When she saw that Xianglan and qumeng were concentrating on watching a sugar man, she walked to a quiet alley with big bags and small bags. She summoned Jianrong and asked him to take dozens of small bags back to the house first. Jianrong looked bitter. Zhuo Xi casually took out a sugar bean and threw it to the roadside. A white shadow flashed by. Jianrong decisively picked up big and small bags and ran to Hou''s house.


    Zhuo Xi laughed and was about to walk out of the alley, but she heard the sound of a weapon breaking through the air behind her. She hurried sideways, touched a sugar bean and threw it behind, but she didn''t hear the sound of little white teeth biting into her skin. She couldn''t think carefully. She heard another thin blade coming across on the left. She leaned back almost 90 degrees before she could escape. The scene behind came into her eyes. Almost immediately she was caught and shouted, "don''t hurt it!"


    "Girl, good means, you good helper!"


    A man in blue was holding a thin dagger in one hand and Xiaobai''s seven inches in the other hand. Xiaobai couldn''t move. She stared at Zhuo Xi quietly. There seemed to be tears in her black eyes. Zhuo Xi''s eyes are about to crack. Xiaobai can remember the scene of saving her, accompanying her and teasing her. It is her first and most loyal partner, friend and relative. She kept saying, "please, let it go. I''m at your disposal. "


    "It''s just a little beast." The man smiled and put away the dagger. He also signaled another man with a knife on Zhuo Xi''s neck to put away his weapon.


    "For me, it''s my life. It''s obviously me you want to catch. Why bother with a little snake? "


    "It''s not an ordinary little snake."


    "Why?"


    "Just because it killed 27 of my elite soldiers by the centipede pool in the green mountain, it is worth a fierce general."


    "Are you wang Feng?"


    "Indeed, she is a wise woman. It''s mostly because of you that Hou Guang''an of the verdant mountain can get out of danger? "


    "The Marquis has the blessing of God. What''s the matter with the little woman?"


    "I heard that a goddess suddenly appeared around the Marquis, which can make the snakes retreat and fly over the cliff. It must be a girl''s masterpiece to make iron and build buildings?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "if I were the goddess in your mouth, how could I be subdued by you so easily if I could retreat from the snakes and cross the cliff? It can be seen that the rumors are not credible. "


    "The rumor is not credible. It depends on the value of this little snake."


    "What are you going to do with it?"


    "A living snake is obviously much more useful than a dead snake. Don''t worry, I won''t do anything to it. I just want to invite him to my camp. Of course, I also invite you to see how the 50000 sergeants in my camp suddenly vomit and diarrhea and feel weak all over? "


    "Listen to this symptom, isn''t someone poisoned in the general camp? You doubt it''s me? "


    Wang Feng laughed, "I have killed countless enemies all my life, and naturally there are enemies everywhere. If you want to harm me, I have nothing to say, but if you want to harm me for 50000, don''t cool sergeant, that won''t work! "


    "If I do, I will admit it. You can say no. how happy it is! But I really didn''t do it. Why should I wronged myself? "


    Wang Feng looked at her and pinched his hand to catch the white snake. "I believe you."


    "Since I didn''t do it, why did you embarrass a weak woman?"


    "I heard that the girl has cured the stubborn disease of the Marquis for more than 20 years. I want to be a doctor. Please help me up and down the camp. "


    "Actually, I''m not good at medicine. There are many famous doctors in the world. Why not recruit famous doctors? "


    "This is a secret in our army. Can it be spread? And had previously asked the army''s old doctor for diagnosis and treatment, which was helpless. "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and stepped forward, "in this way, I can only try. Success or failure depends on their nature. But if you want me to go with you, let Xiaobai go first.


    "General, this woman is crafty and unreliable." Said the young man in gray next to him.


    "Yun''er, since you have such great power, if you want to take our lives, you must disdain to torture my 50000 sergeants with this slow poison. In addition, the girl is not cool. She will not hurt me so much. Don''t cool sergeant, let the worry free country take advantage of the weakness from the East. " He gently put Xiaobai on the ground, "girl, I just offended more than I wanted. Please follow me for a while. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly held Xiaobai in her arms, looked inside and outside, and asked, "Xiaobai, is there any injury?" Seeing Xiaobai shaking his head, he felt relieved and gently put it into his sleeve pocket.


    "It''s not impossible for me to go with you now, but I have two companions when I travel today. If they find that I''m missing, they will search hard. Let me tell them, can you? "


    The young man named Wang Yun pulled out his knife again, "hum, do you want to tell them?"


    "Since I am willing to go with you, I should tell the marquis."


    "Hum, if Guang''an Hou knows, he will let you go with us?"


    Zhuo Xi''s anger surged up, "you two must use strong?"


    Wang Feng didn''t speak. They waited for Zhuo Xi to be alone in this shabby alley, so they didn''t want to disturb others.


    Wang Yun took a step across and completely sealed the road ahead. Zhuo Xi sneered, "if I have to go, how will you wait?"


    "I''ll offend you." Then he waved his knife and attacked.


    Zhuo Xi slipped a small dagger from her right sleeve and also welcomed it. On the way back to Beijing from the mine that day, Jing Yuan suddenly threw it to her in the carriage. She said it was for her self-defense. The workmanship was very rough. She said, "it''s so ugly." Jing Yuan said with a livid face, "no matter how ugly you are, you have to take it." She didn''t understand what his expression meant, nor why Ziran laughed outside the car, but when she opened it, the iron blade was extremely sharp, and it was rare that the small scabbard was made of bronze mixed with iron. The color was really beautiful, and it was not easy to rust when stained with water. He happened to have no self-defense weapons at hand, so he put them on his body.


    Although Zhuo Xi has moves, he has no internal power. Although Wang Yun is a big man in the army, after all, she has practiced martial arts for many years and experienced in the battlefield. She soon found that although her moves were fierce, she had no internal power at all, so she used internal power in her hand. Sure enough, Zhuo Xi felt hard at the next moment, and she was unable to do it. Xiaobai couldn''t easily put it out in his sleeve. He had some concerns. Unexpectedly, he caught his right hand holding the dagger and saw his other hand''s big knife cut to the left shoulder. She didn''t believe he would really hurt her. After all, they asked for her.


    Sure enough, Wang Feng shouted, "stop", so he would stretch out his weapons to block it.


    But there was something faster. Just listening to the "Ding", Wang Yun''s broadsword quickly turned to one side and hit the wall. He was shocked by the tiger''s mouth and his blood flowed. His strength made him unable to grasp the handle of the knife and let go of his hand. He also fought for many years. The enemy didn''t even show his face, so he lost his weapons. He couldn''t help being angry and grabbed the ground weapons to look for the enemy everywhere.


    Wang Feng drank him, "wait a minute. What do you think the concealed weapon is?"


    When the two men looked at it, the concealed weapon that hit the big knife was a small purple Trumpet Flower, which was delicate and beautiful. It didn''t look like it had just been hit by gravity.


    Wang Yun''s face suddenly showed a look of fear. Wang Feng arched his hand and sighed, "Hyacinth childe, please come out and see me."


    Hyacinth boy? Zhuo Xi thought the name was familiar, but she couldn''t remember where she had heard it for a moment, but since he saved her, should it be a friend or an enemy?


    A gust of fragrance passed, and she saw a huge light purple trumpet falling from the sky and falling among the three. This alley is narrow and narrow. Now a trumpet flower is in full bloom in the middle, which is even narrower. She wanted to laugh very much, but she held back out of respect for the life-saving benefactor. When she saw the face of the morning glory, she was completely speechless. The man in front of him has exquisite facial features and beautiful eyes. With long black hair draped over his shoulders like satin and a light purple skirt, it''s not too much to say that he came out of the painting.


    Wang Feng stepped forward, "Wang didn''t know that Miss Zhuo Xi was a friend of the childe. I offended him." Zhuo Xi hasn''t returned to her mind yet. This sentence floated gently in her ear. She always felt a sense of disobedience.


    "Tut Tut, I can''t help it because I can''t see it anymore. Why, since you ask for help, if you can''t invite, you have to change coercion? People all over the world say that the gatekeeper of Heyong is open and aboveboard. It can be seen that the rumor is not credible. " As soon as the cold hoarse voice came out, it immediately broke the beautiful picture in front of Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi blinked and stepped back, human demon?


    Hyacinth childe Chao Zhuo Xi glanced at him with disgust. When women all over the world saw him, they were obsessed first, then shocked, and then obsessed.


    Wang Feng replied, "it turns out that young master hyacinth has long been here. It''s Wang''s recklessness. It''s just that the top and bottom of Heyong customs camp drugged the thieves. If the news spread to wuworry country, it will lead to military disaster, and the consequences will be unimaginable. I''m anxious. Please forgive me. "


    "Oh? Then why are you two safe? "


    "We went back to Beijing to reply. We were reprimanded by the king and stayed for more than a month. Therefore, we escaped this robbery. After returning to the army and learning about it, I''ll hurry back. "


    The hyacinth childe said slowly, "it will take you two days to go to Heyong pass. The mountains and rivers are far away. I''m not afraid of the girl''s fatigue, but I can''t find out the origin of the poison. It''s just detoxification. Why don''t you send some patients here and let the girl feel her pulse carefully before she can apply the medicine to the case. "


    "You!" Wang Yun dared to be angry but not speak. He rode a one-way fast horse for two days. At this time, if someone went back to report and sent the patient over, wouldn''t it be another four or five days?


    "This method is very good. In fact, my medical skills are not exquisite. Maybe I can''t detoxify you smoothly. If there are patients here, they can also turn to other famous doctors in Beijing. " Zhuo Xi returned to her senses and was not very confident in her medical skills, but she couldn''t help glancing at her flowery face.


    Unexpectedly, when Wang Feng saw her look in her eyes, he was very determined, "since this is the case, Wang sent someone to send several patients first, and then went to Hou''s house to meet the girl." After that, he hugged his fist and took Wang Yun away.


    Zhuo Xi looked at him with appreciation. This man can stretch and bend. He is a good man.


    After the two men left, Zhuo Xi and Feng Xinzi stared at each other. Zhuo Xi became more and more fascinated. He thought of the scene in which the beautiful human demons in previous lives arbitrarily let the guests touch their breasts on the stage. He once wanted to touch the artificial chest, but he was not interesting because he was a woman. As she thought so, she went forward and put her hand on his chest. Is it hard? Zhuo Xi was surprised and suddenly came back to her senses before she realized what she had done. She hurriedly wanted to take back her palm, but he held it down by his big hand, and a hoarse cold voice sounded, "why, I''m very disappointed?"


    She raised her eyes and saw the raging anger under his cold and joking eyes. She quickly explained, "the little girl was shocked when she first met the childe. She suspected that the nine day immortal came to earth. So try if you have a human heartbeat. Please forgive me for offending you. "


    He was stunned. Unexpectedly, she answered like this. Her face was a little Ji. She shook off her hand and said in disgust, "go back!"


    Seeing his cold look, she deliberately teased him, "thank you for your help, young lady..."


    "No!" He interrupted her, got up and disappeared into the deep alley.


    Hahaha, Zhuo Xi was in a good mood and turned and strode out of the alley.


    I felt the cold sweat on my forehead when I just returned here in the dark.

 Chapter 35

    At this time, Kou Anli was standing aside with a bent waist in a cold sweat in the Marquis of Guang''an. He had no idea that his unintentional move at that time would make him ascend to the sky step by step. He was obsessed with cutting wood and building houses since childhood. He occasionally went out with his father to build some people''s houses, but he never really touched the houses of Wang Qingong and Hou. Two months ago, his aunt came home and asked his father to lend her some money. He knew that his aunt was going to build a house for the Marquis of Guang''an. He was excited to ask his father to let him participate in it. My father agreed. My aunt said that Yishi of the Marquis of Guang''an had high talents, but he didn''t believe a word. Until he saw her wonderful objects, understood their uses and functions, and then put them into house building practice, he was completely convinced. Those instruments seem ordinary, but they are extremely practical. Just like that long and short iron nail, it is not afraid of decay in the wind and the sun. Its function is far better than wood wedge. There are hammers, pliers, steel bars, hinges and so on, which are time-saving and labor-saving, solid and durable. There are also small dishes and chopsticks, brooms and mops, tables and chairs, furniture, quilts and big Kang, all of which are convenient and comfortable. Rao Shi, who has been involved in carpentry for nearly 20 years, can''t help but marvel at such a wonderful design. Now, in this comfortable house, several senior leaders of this cool country are lying or sitting, with half narrowed eyebrows, praise or sigh.


    Jing Tai, the supreme leader, is leaning on the big Kang. A few jade cups on the small table on the Kang are slowly steaming with hot tea. Kou Andiao is explaining in detail the purpose of the big Kang. At this time, although Kyoto has just entered autumn, it already feels cold because it is located in the north. The big Kang had ordered people to start burning. Jing Ti felt warm when he entered the house. He had removed his cloak. Now he slowly felt that the big Kang under him was warm and felt more and more comfortable. So he interrupted Kou Anliang''s lengthy explanation on the safety of the big Kang and said directly, "this Kang is very good. The Empress Dowager is always afraid of cold. Tomorrow, you can go to the CI Ning palace and build a big Kang for the Empress Dowager. You are the craftsman of the Marquis of Guang''an, and this thing was built in the Marquis of Guang''an for the first time. It is said to be the filial piety of the Marquis of Guang''an. " Jing Yuan was sitting opposite. When he heard the speech, he put down the jade cup in his hand. "Brother Wang, this can''t be used. This Kang has just been made, and I don''t know its use. You personally tried to determine its performance for the first time, and then recommended it to the Empress Dowager. Your benevolence and filial piety is an example for the world. How can you take credit for your lack of strength? "


    "Ha ha," he said, Jing Ti was extremely comfortable, and he was even more comfortable. He hurriedly said that he was testing his performance. "I feel very warm, but if this Kang is burned overnight, wouldn''t it be overheated? If you scald the Empress Dowager... "


    Kou Anli hurriedly replied, "the bottom of the Kang is only a smoke exhaust channel. Through the thick soil layer, the temperature is very limited. If it is too hot, you can also ask the slave outside to remove the fire and smoke to cool down."


    Jing Yuan said again, "I heard that the seven little imperial nephews had just given birth to a month. At present, the weather is cold day by day. If we also build a big Kang for Bai''an palace to let the little imperial nephew have a warm winter." Bai''an palace is the Queen''s residence.


    Jing Tai listened and was happy. "If it should be so, I''m blessed to be the seven emperors."


    A few weeks ago, he pushed the door from the balcony and entered, "Sir, this high place really has a unique scenery. I would like to invite a wide range of interior craftsmen, especially the craftsmen of border fortifications, to strengthen the walls of more than 30 border defense cities in our country to resist foreign enemies! Especially in the western line, which has been harassed by the Changdi people for many times, if we can build higher walls and buildings to resist cavalry, the people in our border cities can also breathe a little. "


    As soon as they entered the third floor, most people have flocked to the balcony to enjoy the high scenery. At first, they saw that the every move of distant pedestrians in the crisscross streets and alleys was quite novel, and they felt boring after watching for a long time. They have all returned to the house. They don''t want to be alone outside for a long time.


    Obviously, Jing Tai also thought it was a good idea and asked Kou Anli, "Anli, would you like to go to the inner house and give it to him?"


    "The villain is the craftsman of the Marquis house. Naturally, he listens to the Marquis''s orders."


    Jing Yuan received the king''s undisguised plundering eyes, sighed and said, "you worry about the country and the people. Why don''t you follow? However, this construction skill can strengthen the city walls, protect the country and the people. Please go up. Except for the craftsmen in the inner house, this skill must not be spread outside, so as not to fall into the hands of spies of the enemy country. "


    "Well, yes." Jing Tai took a sip of hot tea and leaned comfortably on the soft pillow behind her.


    "Anting, from tomorrow on, you will use two hours a day to authorize this house building skill. The rest of the time is still stepping up supervision over the construction of two other houses. "


    "Oh? Sixth brother, there are still houses to be built in this house? "


    "Yes, there was a fire here the month before last. The fire was too big. It spread to the South and burned down together with the houses in the south. The hut in the north of the courtier''s house was in disrepair and uninhabited for a long time. Unexpectedly, it was collapsed by a century old tree and was ready to be built together. "


    "Since there is such a good opportunity, you don''t have to go to the inner house every day. I asked the inner house craftsmen to come to your house. How about you teach them and let them operate on the spot?"


    Le Ke on one side listened more and more happily, shouting "Shengming on the king!" He saw Kou anling''s earnest eyes staring at him. He had been baptized by such eyes for nearly two hours. Taking advantage of the king''s happy mood, he hurried forward to remind him, "Your Majesty, I checked one by one according to the drawings applied by anling before, but they were all true, and the actual results were witnessed and experienced by the king and all the gentlemen. Look at the reward he applied for..."


    Jing Tai closed his eyes and waved, "Cao Jia, just allocate it from the new currency just put into storage last month. Le Qing, you ask the head of the inner government Wuhe to select some things that are beneficial to the country and the people, so as to popularize the world as soon as possible, benefit the people and make them share happiness. "


    "Promise!" Several people responded together.


    Kou anding breathed a sigh of relief. His business was small. The reward given by Miss Zhuo Xi was one of his most important tasks recently. He has listened to the arrangement of the Marquis and the girl, and has borne the false name of the house building master, but he must win the invention and Creation Award, otherwise why face her and the people of the Marquis house? He really didn''t understand why Miss Zhuo Xi didn''t show up for such a great thing? Let him pick up a big bargain? But anyway, since the Marquis ordered him so and emphasized that it was vital to the girl''s life, he could not betray the girl anyway.


    Just thinking about it, Yue Ke whispered, "Anli, your 108 drawings really surprised me, ha ha."


    What he thought came. Kou Andie took out his prepared words and whispered, "the villain has followed his father to build houses and bridges since childhood. Therefore, he has some strange ideas. He didn''t admit that the Marquis was generous, but all the villain''s ideas have been realized. I also heard that the king issued a commendation order, so I applied for it in order to promote some and facilitate others, didn''t I? "


    "I''ve heard of the carpenter Kou family for a long time. The carpenter of Kou family has passed down from generation to generation, and his skills are really excellent. However, many of these objects have never been heard of before, and many tools can only be made with the latest cast iron technology. This is not your work for more than ten years. Your boy recruited from the truth. Isn''t there an expert behind you? "


    Kou Anli tightened his face and said, "the villain is made out by himself. How can there be any expert?"


    Le Ke said, "I heard that there is a goddess who can retreat the snakes and cross the cliff around the marquis. Is there such a thing?"


    Kou Anli was surprised, "there is a suitable waiter around the Lord recently to take care of the Lord''s daily food, but I''ve never heard that she has such magic power? Moreover, she has nothing to do with building and building. " Yi Shi is a female official of seven grades. After checking in the palace, she knows that people can''t hide if they want to hide, so they have to hide her skills.


    "But I heard that these things came after the woman appeared."


    Kou Anli was sweating, but he had to harden his head and say, "Xu Shi, Lord Xu shile hearsay, you can''t do it accurately."


    The two people''s conversation fell into the ears of the two people on the Kang. Jing Ti asked, "sixth brother, that woman, really has nothing outstanding?"


    Jing Yuan replied, "that woman is just the daughter of Wu Han, a senior doctor of Taipu temple. She grew up in the countryside since childhood and is a little braver than others. Where is she outstanding?" Both of them kept silent about what happened in the mountains in those days, and Jing Ti wouldn''t take the initiative to start this conversation. He had to ask again, "sixth brother, there has always been a lack of hostess in your house, even the maid is quite rare. Now, you have suddenly appointed a female official yourself, which makes Wei brother curious. "


    "Brother Wang, to tell you the truth, I like her. I haven''t felt this for many years. When I first met her, I wanted to accept her into the house. However, the girl was used to being rude. She was used to seeing the farmers'' monogamy supporting each other in the countryside since she was a child. Unexpectedly, her heart was higher than heaven and she wanted to find a double all her life. Tunnel took the excuse that his younger brother had a fiancee and refused to enter the house as a concubine. "


    "Nonsense! I am the grand house of the Marquis of Guang''an. Is it comparable to the small people in the countryside? "


    "That''s right, but my younger brother couldn''t put his mind down for a moment, so he frightened her into joining the palace election next year, and then he bluffed her into agreeing to stay in the house as an appropriate waiter. So I don''t know the heaven and earth. My younger brother wants to stay for a few years. When his mind is light, let''s go with her. "


    "It''s just a country woman. There''s no need to embarrass yourself. Not only can you keep a beautiful woman on your side, but also don''t take the name of your wife''s concubine. It''s a good explanation for the future imperial concubine yuan. " He remembered the rumor that the two people had secretly communicated music money in Huling villa as early as now, and heard that they were staying in the woman''s room at Houfu Jingyuan night and night. He also believed eight points in his heart. "I remember that Miss Wang''s filial piety has been up to now, should it be about to expire?" It is rare for brothers to talk like this, and he can''t help but omit the widows'' self claim and become friendly.


    "Brother Lao, it will be exactly three years by the beginning of March next year."


    "Oh? That''s just right. When her filial piety expires, ask Zhan Houzhong left to combine the eight characters of your two birthdays, and choose a auspicious day to welcome her into the house. "


    "Promise." Jing Yuan answered, but said, "brother Wang, I have another thing to ask."


    "Say."


    "Gelao clan leader Luo Ke sent a letter earlier asking his younger brother when to welcome back the body of his mother''s concubine and move it into the former king''s mausoleum. The last words of the mother imperial concubine have not been forgotten by my younger brother in the past five years. "


    "Concubine Luo once said that after the death of the former King Hong, she would go to the mausoleum to accompany the former king. The former king also ordered this on his deathbed. Well, if the sixth brother has nothing else to do recently, he''ll get up and do it. "


    He got up and got off the Kang and bowed down to the ground. "Brother, thank the king for his kindness."

 Chapter 36

    When Zhuo Xi stepped on the screen and returned to Hou''s house, she found that the hall of Hou''s house was brightly lit. The big man hasn''t left yet? Are you leaving? Although Jing Yuan didn''t tell her why she had a holiday and shopping today, she asked Xianglan to find out early in the morning that there was a big man coming. Since Jing Yuan was determined to hide her, she was happy to hide behind. What''s going on now? She was not afraid to see the figure, but hated the red tape of kneeling down.


    She looked at the brightly lit VIP room, but there was no smell of serious vigilance. She was relieved that it should not be the leader of the country. She asked Xianglan to take her to Meng Xian. Meng Xian went back to the water Pavilion and waved. Jianrong appeared in front of her and asked, "which guest is coming?"


    Jianrong touched his head and whispered, "Hyacinth boy."


    Sure enough, he saved her because of Jing Yuan. She suddenly remembered that she had heard Zi Ran say his name. She seemed to be a miracle doctor. She was looking for antidotes for Jing Yuan before. Although Xiaobai has found out the source of the poison for her, she has not found out the antidote to the poison. Jing Yuan took the pill made of red fruit before her, but she kept suppressing the toxin, so she didn''t rush. She has been busy with building a house recently and has forgotten it. It''s hard to let this person go when he comes and knows the prescription of his known antidote? So she raised her feet and walked towards the VIP room. Thinking of the shy appearance he had just been molested by himself, he couldn''t help feeling more relaxed and brisk.


    Sure enough, I came in and saw Jing Yuan sitting on the main seat and closing his eyes. The purple hyacinth was giving him a pulse. When she came in, the hyacinth didn''t move, but looked at her faintly, but there was no disgust in her eyes. Zhuo Xi was strange and silent, waiting for his diagnosis.


    The hyacinth put away his pulse taking hand and said with a smile to Jing Yuan, "brother yuan is really in good health. Is there anything except stiffness?"


    "Jing''s disease has not recurred since the last time," said Jing. It''s all Xi''er''s credit. " He smiled and looked at Zhuo Xi standing by the door.


    Hyacinth''s smile was not received. Zhuo Xi was still in the homophony of "brother yuan" - the "culprit" he had just shouted. She couldn''t help laughing. However, she saw hyacinth''s charming Phoenix eyes looking at her with a wisp of smile. She was stunned with a funny look.


    Jing Yuan''s alarm bell rang loudly in his heart. He immediately got up to block the wind letter behind him and whispered to her, "Xi''er?"


    "What? If a friend comes, don''t introduce me? "


    "What kind of friend is Feng Xin? You don''t know him!" Jing Yuan still kept him behind.


    "So Fengxin is your real name? He''s not your friend? Then why did he wink at me in the alley during the day? I guess? She blinked.


    Jing Yuan immediately turned around and grabbed Feng Xin''s skirt, "what? What did you do to her during the day? "


    Feng Xin''s eyes shot at Zhuo Xi through Jing Yuan''s shoulder, and Zhuo Xi blinked at him innocently.


    He patted Jing Yuan''s hand and said slowly, "why don''t you ask, what did she do to me?"


    He followed suit. "What did she do to you?"


    "She..." Feng Xin couldn''t say anything, so she had to frown and look at her right hand.


    Jing Yuan turned and asked, "what did he do to you? What did you do to him? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "nothing. He saved me. I''m worried about nothing. I want to..."


    "No!" Feng Xin quickly interrupted her and picked up a cup of tea on the table.


    Jing Yuan handed him a look of "you know", but said to Zhuo Xi, "I think so."


    Feng Xin spouted tea from his mouth, "what?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "really?"


    "Yes. His is mine. If you must repay him, repay me. I can accept your promise by example. "


    "But my way of repayment is not to promise each other, and you can''t replace it. What shall we do? "


    "Let''s hear it first."


    "I want to be his..." she deliberately paused, looked at his nervous eyes and smiled, "agent." She really thinks this beautiful man will be red, and it''s the kind of man who will be red at once.


    "What is a broker?"


    "The agent is..." Zhuo Xi wanted to give an example and suddenly found that there are no stars and actors in this era. "Er, it''s similar to an intermediary. When you need to make money, I''ll help you negotiate and let you make as much money as possible, and I can also get a commission from it."


    "Ha ha ha," Jing Yuan laughed loudly. There will be such a fool in the world who will be sold and given a commission. "Is that how you repay him?"


    In this era, there is no star aura, and the agent naturally has no value and charm. From this point of view, her way of repayment is a little off-line, but she still nodded, "if you need me to negotiate for you one day, I will help you win back the most chips. In order to show my sincerity in repaying, I won''t take a percentage. " I don''t know if she felt ashamed of the proposal. Her face slowly turned red.


    Jing Yuan was speechless and looked up to the sky. He also felt a little ashamed.


    That night, when Zhuo Xi was going to bed, she found that the person who appeared in the room on time every night didn''t come. She remembered the arrival of today''s man''s hyacinth, which was more charming than flowers. Maybe the two held candles and talked at night. Forget it, although she has doubts, she is more happy. Tonight''s bed can finally be enjoyed by her alone. She soon fell asleep in a happy mood. But not long after she fell asleep, a dark figure got into bed, gently hugged her and whispered, "it''s good for you to fall asleep. You must stop losing sleep. But, "he sighed softly," you will be left alone in Kyoto these days. "


    The next day, Jing Yuan left. Before leaving, he told all the servants and guards in the house to follow Miss Zhuo Xi''s instructions and gave her a stamp. He said that if you need money, just take it to the warehouse to get it. Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. She had received more than 2000 yuan of invention and creation funds applied by Kou andI, which was not a small amount. In addition, Kou Niang said that she had several orders, and the amount was quite huge. The master''s departure is equivalent to a holiday. Moreover, the construction of the three houses has been on track, and she doesn''t have to stare at it from time to time. She just has a lot of time to prepare for her luxury business plan. With a stamp in her hand, she is sure that the capital is no longer a problem.


    When Jing Yuan left, he took Ziran and Jianyi with him, and strongly asked Fengxin to go with him, but Fengxin stayed on the ground of finding the clue of the antidote. He was really worried that such a large Trumpet Flower would stay in the house, so he asked him to swear not to get close to Zhuo Xi within five steps, and ordered him to take strict care of the room.


    Kou Niang has started talking about engineering outside. The first built Furong house has become a model house, but it is Hou''s house after all, and can''t be visited at will. Only a few powerful and interested big families sent representatives to visit quietly through the channel transporting decoration materials through the back door. All of them were stunned and asked about the cost one after another. Originally, the cost of this building was only more than 1100 yuan, covering an area of less than one mu, but Kou Niang looked forward to these big families and directly quoted the price of 3000 yuan per mu. As a result, they all thought it was only the price of one floor, which automatically tripled the cost of the whole building. Therefore, taking this as a benchmark, all the big people who came to see were either Gongqing or aristocratic families. They all signed a letter of intent. On the other day, Kou Niang sent someone to the house for field survey, and then the tunnel signed a contract.


    Now look at her, she is not happy all the time. In just half a month, she has successfully won six orders and paid the advance payment. Although she has only 15% of the shares left, only three orders let Kou Niang''s profits pay off all the debts she owed when she built a house for the Hou house. When Zhuo Xi got the contract, he quickly drew a sketch style, and with the consent of the customer, he threw it to Kou anding for detailed design. The construction team is also working overtime. After the construction craftsmen from the inner government joined in, they learned slowly at first and became skilled later, which actually accelerated the progress of the whole project. In particular, Zhuo Xi announced that after the completion of each project outside Houfu, everyone will be rewarded according to the working hours, but only if the project quality is guaranteed. After that, everyone rushed forward like a chicken''s blood. Who wants to do such a project for more than six months?


    Recently, the housekeeper received a strange order from Miss Zhuo Xi, asking him to set up a separate grassland in the Marquis''s Beijing suburb manor and buy hundreds of calves and lambs in nearby states and counties.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly became very busy. She was too busy to touch her feet. At night, she often came back to her residence under the stars. Xianglan sometimes followed her, and sometimes she sent her to other places to do business.


    That night, she returned to her house in the moonlight as usual, but when she passed the nave, she found that the stage was as bright as day, the music behind the scenes and the actors on the stage were Yiyi. She couldn''t help slowing down and turning to the stage, only to find that there was only one audience in front of the stage. No, it can also be said that there are two spectators, one sitting and the other standing bowed. She squinted and recognized the bell flower sitting on the back chair. She changed a light cyan dress and leaned seductively on the chair. Next to her was Qu Meng, who was staring at Feng Xin on the stage.


    Half a month ago, the largest troupe in Beijing produced a new play. After performing several times in several xungui''s homes, the audience kept silent. However, I don''t know where it came from. How the play climaxed and attracted people, so several aristocratic families quietly invited the troupe to perform. Gradually, the whole upper circles in Kyoto secretly spread word of mouth that the highlights of the play were unspeakable. Therefore, the troupe kept running around the government to perform, and its busy degree was comparable to that when the new emperor ascended the throne and the whole country celebrated together.


    At the moment, it is this "biography of Emperor Wu" that is performing on the stage.


    She really didn''t know why Feng Xin stayed in Hou''s house, or why he invited this drama aimed at female audiences, and she watched it with interest. As long as he is there, people with eyes will only look at him and forget what is performing on the stage. Just like the next to Meng.


    She suddenly woke up. Is his goal to go to Meng? She remembered that Meng had told her that one morning he was feeding Xiaobai. Xiaobai, who had eaten well, suddenly arched his back and turned to the door to stare fiercely. He was also nervous. Seeing that it was the hyacinth childe, he also decided to pat Xiaobai''s head to let it continue breakfast, but he saw that Xiaobai continued to stare at him relentlessly. The hyacinth came and asked him a few questions and left. After he walked away, Xiaobai put down his nervous body and continued to eat breakfast.


    Does he have another purpose for going to Bangladesh, so Xiaobai is very hostile to him? She remembered that Jing Yuan didn''t appear in her room the night he first came.


    She looked at Meng again. When the nine year old child was red in lips and white in teeth, the gradually dispelling baby fat showed a resolute and lovely face. At this time, the hyacinth was pulling him to sit beside him and went to Meng to struggle.


    In an instant, she was furious. She went forward and turned Mengla back. "What are you going to do?!"


    "I just want him to have a rest because I''m tired of seeing a little boy standing for a long time."


    Zhuo Xi snorted coldly, "Oh, did you rest and go to bed?"


    He brushed his sleeves and changed his posture. Feng Mu picked it up, but he still couldn''t hide his disgust. "Get out of the way and don''t block me from watching the play."


    "Why, have I caught your dirty mind?"


    "My childe is not stained with fine dust. Why do you have a dirty mind?"


    "How dare you say you have no ulterior motives for Xiao Meng?"


    He choked. "Even if there is, what does it have to do with you?"


    "It''s about nature. He is my special snake craftsman. Besides, he is only nine years old. "


    "What about nine? Xiao Meng is very capable. " His eyes looking at qumeng were as gentle as water.


    Meng got his praise and his face turned red. Zhuo Xi actually heard the ambiguity. She took Meng Hou back, turned and said to him, "Xiao Meng, stay away from him."


    "Why? Sister Zhuo Xi, the hyacinth childe is so beautiful. I like him very much. " Nine year olds express their preferences very clearly.


    Zhuo Xi could not explain to him, but said, "just listen to my sister. Come on, let''s go back first. It''s getting late. It''s time to have a rest. "


    She took Meng to the house and asked, "how''s Xiaobai today? Are you good? "


    "He is very good. When the hyacinth childe called me, he refused to come together and fell asleep on Xiao Meng''s bed."

 Chapter 37

    One evening three days later, Zhuo Xi hurried back to his house. The housekeeper waited at the door and greeted him and reported, "girl, two people carrying two patients came early in the morning. Wait until now. Somehow, I have to let the girl show me. I said that our girl is not a doctor. She wants to see a doctor in the hospital. One of them said, "you asked them to come."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "where is the man?" She had received a secret report. It was Wang Feng''s subordinates who brought people here.


    "The slave is placed in the guest room."


    "Take me. By the way, let someone bring qumeng. "


    When we arrived at the guest room, Wang Yun and his other entourage were standing aside. He looked unprepared. He just hastily arched his hand and said, "girl, I have brought people. I hope you will keep your promise."


    She nodded. "In fact, my medical skills are not very outstanding. I can only try my best."


    Wang Yun let go and made a gesture of invitation.


    Zhuo Xi came forward and looked. The two patients were in a coma, pale and dry lips. They were typical symptoms of dehydration. Then he asked, "what are their symptoms? How many days? "


    "Today is the fifth day. I have to drink water all the time. Then I have abdominal pain and diarrhea. Obviously, I have no food and nothing to vent, but I can''t stop abdominal pain and diarrhea. Military doctors also prescribed antidiarrheal medicine soup, which didn''t work at all. "


    She sat aside, closed her eyes, made a move to feel her pulse, and then said, "according to what General Wang said last time, they were poisoned?"


    "Yes, someone poisoned the well water. All the people who ate and drank water that day were poisoned."


    She saw that Meng had trotted over and said, "I don''t like outsiders to be present. Can you ask the general to avoid it first?" He glanced at the two people lying on the bed before he took his companions away.


    She whispered to Meng, "let Xiao Bai out."


    After Xiaobai came out, she said to Xiaobai, "Xiaobai, go and see if these two people are poisoned?"


    Xiaobai swam forward, opened his mouth and tried to bite one of them on the wrist, but he didn''t really lower his mouth. He opened his mouth and looked at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xiqi said, "Xiaobai, we want to save this man. We can''t bite him!"


    Qumeng said with a smile, "sister Zhuo Xi, Xiaobai said that it wants to bite his hand and get some blood out. But little white mouth is poisonous. You can''t do that. Xiaobai, right? "


    Xiaobai nodded and Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. Well, hasn''t she been in close contact with Xiaobai for a long time? So she drew out her knife and gently scratched a wound, and the blood immediately gurgled out. Xiaobai came forward and licked, then nodded.


    "Really poisoned? What''s the poison? "


    Xiaobai can only nod. Even if he knows what poison, how does he express it?


    "Well, you may be looking for an antidote?"


    Xiaobai thought and nodded.


    Zhuo Xi said happily, "great, then go and find the antidote."


    Xiaobai hesitated and didn''t want to go. Zhuo Xi squatted down, "Xiaobai, what''s the matter?" She looked at it carefully and shouted in surprise, "Wow, Xiaobai, are you pregnant? Why do you look fat? "


    Go to Meng with a black face and pull zhuoxi''s sleeves, "sister, Xiaobai has eaten more and slept more recently. Naturally, she will grow up and gain weight."


    "So you''re getting fat? Are you getting fat and don''t want to walk? Say! "


    Xiaobai furan wanted to cry, looked at qumeng, shook his head, nodded again, and bit Zhuo Xi''s trouser legs.


    Zhuo Xi looked at it and put away her joking look. "Do you want to take me instead of going by yourself?"


    Xiaobai nodded and shook his face, as if to get rid of the tears in his eyes.


    "OK, you take me." She picked it up and painfully kissed the corner of its mouth, "I blame you wrong." Put it into the sleeve pocket. Sure enough, I think it''s much heavier. It seems that qumeng fed it very well.


    As soon as they opened the door, Wang Yun and another attendant immediately came forward and asked how the situation was.


    "Indeed, he was poisoned by a poison called ten days soft. If there is no antidote within ten days, the poisoned person will be dehydrated, weak and die. " Xiaobai had this cheating artifact in hand. Since she knew the whereabouts of the antidote, she simply exaggerated the efficacy and frightened them. She also avenged Wang Yun for putting the knife around her neck that day.


    The man next to Wang Yun was worried, "what should I do? Did you think of an antidote? "


    "Since the origin of the poison is known, I have a way to detoxify it. Wait here for a moment. I''ll find the prescription for the antidote. "


    "Well, thank you, girl." The man was overjoyed and bowed. Seeing Wang Yun standing on one side and pulling his sleeve, Wang Yun made a little salute angrily.


    Zhuo Xi was in a good mood. When she got out of the guest room, she told Meng to tell housekeeper Zhou to get some food for the four people in the guest room.


    When she got to the inner yard, she released the little white in her sleeve and whispered, "go, I''ll follow you."


    Xiaobai walked quietly in one direction. Zhuo Xi followed her all the way until she came to a building. She looked up and saw that it was the familiar linyue Pavilion. After Jing Yuan left, linyue Pavilion lived alone - Fengxin. It is said that every time he came to Hou''s house, he lived in linyue Pavilion in Jingyuan. He couldn''t help knowing whether it was the master''s bedroom or not. She was also a little curious and thought to visit later if she had time.


    Xiaobai went straight to the east wing. Zhuo Xi accelerated two steps and followed him, but he saw the door of the East chamber closed, but the light was slightly on inside.


    She leaned over the cat and put her ears on the door. Xiaobai has slipped in through the window, but she can''t turn over the window. She heard someone inside, but she didn''t seem to hear clearly.


    She quietly opened the door through a crack when a nearby hand reached out and stopped her. She was startled. She saw clearly what was in front of her. She stroked her chest and asked with her mouth, "what are you doing?"


    Jianrong whispered in her ear, "young master hyacinth has excellent martial arts. Don''t act rashly."


    She said, "you mean, he''s in there?"


    Jianrong nodded. If it weren''t for the sake of your safety, would I still need to come out?


    She looked at the crack in the door. Isn''t the master aware of the wind and grass? Why did she open a big crack in the door, but the people inside didn''t notice it? And Xiaobai has stabbed in, and there is no movement in it.


    Jianrong obviously also found the problem. After listening to it for a while, his face became dignified. He protected her behind him, quietly opened the crack of the door a little wider, and raised his feet to go in.


    They walked into the house, bypassed the screen, and held Zhuo Xi''s eyes reflexively. However, they were stunned the next second they raised their eyes. After reacting, they quickly turned around and pushed Zhuo Xi up.


    Zhuo Xi was pushed to stagger, but she heard a soft hoarse voice in front of her and asked, "who?" Lifting his eyes, he saw a huge barrel in the room. Feng Xin was sitting in the barrel. Several strands of long black hair were tightly attached to his forehead, and his eyes were blurred. Zhuo Xi glanced reflexively and dared not look, but soon found the problem and opened her eyes again.


    Sure enough, there was no heat on the water of the barrel. And that Feng Xin was obviously a little sober. After asking a question, he saw no answer, and couldn''t help moaning. Then he sat up straight, began to mutter and closed his eyes.


    Zhuo Xi saw that his face was crimson and sweating. It was obvious that he was trying to bear something. This scene is too familiar. Countless scenes flashed through her mind and finally knew what had happened to him.


    Again, if there was no fragrance, she gloated and took another step, ready to laugh at the trumpet. After walking one step, I heard him say, "relic, color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and so is thinking and knowing. The relic is the empty phase of all dharmas. It is neither born nor destroyed, nor dirty nor clean, nor increased nor reduced. "


    She suddenly stopped again and suddenly realized why Jianrong pushed her up. She looked cold and shouted, "room capacity!"


    Jianrong hid behind the screen, "subordinates are."


    "You come in!"


    ¡­¡­


    Silence, "this is an order. Dare you listen?"


    Still silent, Zhuo Xi touched the water in the bucket and actually began to steam. Na Fengxin has also completely fallen into a state of unconsciousness and did not hear their dialogue.


    "I''ll count three. If you still don''t come in, go back to your master. 1¡¢ 2. Before the word "three" came out, Jianrong came in with a bitter face and his back to the two.


    "The situation is urgent. Let me ask you, who is the hyacinth childe?"


    "He is the benefactor of the Marquis, even more like a relative."


    "So, if she is in trouble, will you save her?"


    "Nature wants to save!"


    "Well, go and get her out and put her on the bed."


    "This......" Jianrong has walked to the open space between her and Fengxin and knelt down, "subordinates dare not! Childe Fengxin said to his subordinates, "he is already half the master!"


    "Since you take her as half the master, you still don''t save your life?" Zhuo Xi smiled angrily, "I tell you, if there is no fragrance poison, if you don''t understand it within an hour, you may be steaming all over your body until you empty the essence and blood of the five zang organs, and finally die. Now the water temperature in the barrel has begun to rise. She can''t support it for a quarter of an hour at most. You can do it. "


    Jianrong''s face became paler and paler as he heard it. "Girl, you are also the master of your subordinates. Please save the childe!"


    "If there is no antidote, I can''t help it! Only you can save her now! "


    Jianrong gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, flew forward, grabbed the hot body from the water, looked at her peerless face, and stayed for a long time.


    Zhuo Xi came forward and kicked him, "what are you doing?! Later, she will die! "


    He woke up, hesitated, and finally made up his mind to fly and put her on the big bed in the inner room. The lotus tent floated down, and the people inside could be heard moaning. Their limbs were tightly wrapped around the sudden soft and cold body.


    Yes, it''s her, not him. Feng Xin was originally a daughter. I don''t know why she likes to wear gorgeous clothes, but she has to dress up as a man. Zhuo Xi suddenly realized that her life was in danger when she saw the chest bandage she loosened in the water. Only after she was poisoned that time did she know that if there was no fragrance, if a man drank it, it would be at most erotic but not life-threatening. If it is a woman, the antidote is a deadly poison before it arrives.


    Zhuo Xi looked relaxed and smiled. It''s really cheap for him. However, Jianrong just spends more time hiding in the dark on weekdays, and looks a little pale. In fact, his facial features are still pretty good, very handsome. Just hope that if Feng Xin wakes up tomorrow, don''t blame her. No wonder since the first meeting, she didn''t offend her, but wanted to close the distance with her, but her eyes looking at herself were full of disgust. Sure enough, the same sex repels each other. I''m not sure. She has been with Jing Yuan for so many years and has already made a secret promise. In this way, she will hate herself and her face, won''t she? But why is her heart a little sour?


    She shook her head, threw away these strange ideas, turned her head and saw Xiaobai shaking his tail at it in the left ear chamber, indicating her to pass. She immediately went over and found a large bag of medicine from the wardrobe under the guidance of Xiaobai. She smelled it and knew that these were antidotes.


    She chuckled, picked up the bag of medicine and went out.

 Chapter 38

    Wang Yun has been walking around the door, anxious. There is only a ten day deadline. Now half the time has passed. What if he can''t find the antidote? What if the antidote found is not enough for the whole army? What if it''s too late? I think of the brother in the same robe who is weak and painful in the military camp, and I think of what to do if the news leaked out these days and the worry free country attacked on a large scale from the east line? He walked around and couldn''t see the robes on one side. "Brother Wang, please stop for a while. Miss Zhuo said there was a way to detoxify them. Let''s wait patiently!"


    Wang Yun had no place to express his anger. When he said this, his anger immediately surged up, "Lv Qi, you will say sarcastic words. You didn''t listen to her. There are less than five days left! You''re not the one lying there. If it''s too late, what about tens of thousands of brothers in the army?! What do you say? " He almost roared out and couldn''t imagine the worst consequences.


    "Aren''t you trying to find a way now?! What''s the use of you walking around like this? "


    He grabbed LV Qi''s skirt and said, "what the fuck are you talking about! It''s useful for you to pestle there like a piece of wood? "


    "Wang Yun, don''t think you''re strong. I''m afraid of you! If you really do it, who can beat who?! "


    Wang Yun''s veins burst, "come on, come on."


    "What are you doing?" This was the scene when Zhuo Xi arrived. Wang Yun angrily released his hand.


    Seeing that she came at the right time, LV Qi hurried forward and asked respectfully, "girl, antidote..."


    Zhuo Xi took out the package of medicine, "these are medicine inducements. I have nothing to grind out in the past to prepare medicine. Since you are in urgent need, I will use it first. One person only needs a small spoon, and I don''t know if it''s enough. The antidote is this prescription. You can fill it according to the prescription and boil it slowly with a small fire. However, the amount of medicine for 50000 people is not a small amount. I wonder if the pharmacy in Kyoto can prepare these drugs. Remember, Yinyin should be washed with warm water first, and then take the medicine after a column of incense. Remember, remember. "


    LV Qi was overjoyed. He said to Wang Yun, "brother Wang, just now my little brother was upset and annoyed my brother. Please don''t worry about it. Now that we have this prescription, why don''t we act separately? One of us quickly grabbed the medicine and went to the military camp, and the other stayed here to take care of the two brothers. What do you think? "


    Wang Yun also clenched his fist on LV Qi''s chest and smoothed his deformed chest for him. "Just now, I was too anxious for my brother, so that I didn''t pay attention to my hand. I''m sorry. That''s a good idea. I''ll send someone to buy a cart of medicine first. If it''s not ready, I''d better go to the neighboring county to buy it. How about you stay and take care of the two brothers? "


    LV Qishuang said quickly, "no problem."


    Master Yun Zhengde, thank you for saving me, Miss Wang Yongde


    "There''s no need to thank you. Just remember to pay the doctor''s fee."


    "Money?" Both of them were stunned. They never thought about it.


    "Of course it''s money. Not to mention that I don''t open a good hall, just this package of medicine guide is made of snow lotus picked from the snow covered Tianshan Mountain for more than half a year. You can go to the pharmacy to ask the market price of the snow lotus and their stock. If you didn''t just catch up with me, where would you find so many snow lotus? "


    "This..." Wang Yun glanced at LV Qi. "When it comes to money, we have no authority. Miss, I''ll tell the big general about the money diagnosis truthfully when I go back. How about he talk to you? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "no problem." She likes to negotiate with people who can decide best.


    The next morning, when Zhuo Xi was sleeping in a daze, he was kicked open the door, and was lifted from the quilt, "say, who is it?!"


    Zhuo Xi reluctantly opened one eye. It was Feng Xin''s charming and moving face without makeup. Even if it was clearly a vertical eyebrow, it was also a heroic beauty. She couldn''t help touching the delicate skin with her hand, "Feng Xin, don''t you know whether men and women kiss or not? Why did you break into my boudoir early in the morning? "


    Feng Xin grabbed her bear claw. "Do you know whether men and women kiss or not?"


    "Nature knows." She yawned and threw herself on the bed again.


    Feng Xin grabbed her. "If you don''t tell me who that man is, you won''t sleep again!"


    Zhuo Xi woke up in a moment, "what are you talking about? Which man?! "


    Feng Xin took a deep breath. "I know you know. Tell me, who was that man yesterday?"


    Zhuo Xi scratched her head. "What are you talking about?" She doesn''t know who that man is? Did Jianrong run away without leaving a thread after wiping her dry? She really didn''t know whether to praise him for being clever or scold him for being shameless.


    "Don''t pretend. I asked the guard on patrol last night and said I saw you alone in linyue Pavilion."


    Which guard doesn''t have eyes?


    "I''ve been to linyue Pavilion, but do you know why I went?"


    "Why?"


    "Wang Feng''s two patients came to your house yesterday. Don''t you know?"


    Feng Xin suddenly looked unnatural. "What do you know?"


    Zhuo Xi leaned over with a smile, "did you make his 50000 Sergeant vomit and diarrhea?"


    Feng Xin raised her eyebrows and showed her disgust, "hum!"


    "Why? Did they offend you? "


    "No. But they offended the wrong people. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately understood that the girl was avenging Jing Yuan. It can be seen how much she cares about Jing Yuan. But after all these years, Jing Yuan didn''t find out she was a woman? As the saying goes, women chase men''s interlayer yarn, not to mention such a national person. If you show your daughter''s identity, how many men flock to it in the world? Why did she hold back?


    "How do you know I gave the medicine?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "those two people had to ask me for help, so I had to ask Xiaobai to find the antidote for me. As soon as I looked, I found the linyue Pavilion. "


    She exclaimed in a hoarse voice, "what are you talking about?! Did you take the antidote? "


    "In fact, you didn''t do anything hard. You just wanted to give Wang Feng some color to see, so you had already prepared the antidote. The last time you stopped them from taking me away and asked them to come here to find me, you actually came to find you, didn''t you? "


    "Hum, it makes you cheap for nothing."


    "How do you know it''s cheap, not a disaster? How could there be an antidote if it wasn''t for the person who poisoned it? How can there be so many? Enough for 50000 people? "


    Feng Xin was speechless for a moment. "How do you explain?"


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "I just said that your antidote is just a medicine guide. It happens to be the powder ground by Tianshan snow lotus I have stored for many years. What really works is another antidote. In fact, all the prescriptions I prescribe are just medicine for strengthening the body. "


    "The girl is really smart. Just smell it and you will know that my antidote is made of Tianshan snow lotus. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "where? Compared with you, a poison expert, I''m just a big Witch and a small Witch."


    Speaking of this, Feng Xin became angry again. He has always been good at using poison, but he didn''t want to be plotted by a villain. Now he can''t find the person to detoxify himself. Thinking of this, she turned her Phoenix eyes and said with a smile, "Miss Zhuo Xi, since you and I are destined, what if you and I don''t make a deal?"


    "What deal?" Zhuo Xi immediately became vigilant.


    "To tell you the truth, I didn''t come for you or Xiao Meng this time. But for your little white. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately became nervous, "Xiaobai? Do you know it? "


    "This snake is called snow beetle. It was originally a kind of snake living in the fire cave of snow mountain. I was in Tianshan before. In fact, I mainly went to find this snake. Unexpectedly, I didn''t find it for half a year, so I had to pick a lot of snow lotus on the way. "


    "What do you want Xiaobai to do?" She said warily.


    "Nature takes its snake gall. That''s the best antidote in the world. " Feng Xin Shan Shan Shan''s new blue and white robe said lightly.


    Zhuo Xi angrily said, "how dare you!"


    "Why not? You can''t beat me again. It''s not easy for me to catch a snake? "


    She suddenly remembered the two snake galls she cut in the mountain. Now they have been dried and powdered. She quickly found them, "this is the gall of the python I killed in the mountain. When I took it, the snake was not dead. It was very fresh. Great Xia, do you think it works? "


    Feng Xin took a smell, "this gall is far more effective than the snow snake."


    Zhuo Xi bit her teeth. "How can you let Xiaobai go?"


    "It depends on the girl''s attitude towards this deal."


    "What do you want?"


    "I just want one answer. Tell me, who was that man last night? "


    Zhuo Xi still wanted to die, "I really don''t know what kind of man that is."


    "In fact, if you don''t say it, I can guess the general range. Those who can come and go freely in the Hou''s house, except the bodyguards in the house, are the dark guards in the house. Ordinary bodyguards don''t have the courage, so there are only dark guards. As long as I catch all the dark guards around you for trial, I''ll know everything. So it doesn''t matter whether you say it or not. "


    At this time, a dark shadow flashed and knelt in front of them, "girl, wind, hyacinth childe. Actually... "He said with difficulty.


    "Jianrong, son ran has a letter?" Zhuo Xi interrupted him.


    He was stunned and took out a letter from his sleeve, "it''s not Zi Ran, it''s written by the Marquis to the girl. Another one is for young master hyacinth. "


    Zhuo Xi received the letter, "OK, wait outside the door first. I have something to talk with the hyacinth childe. I have something to tell you to do later. "


    "Promise." He looked at Zhuo Xi, raised his eyes and secretly aimed at Feng Xin. A layer of red slowly floated on his face. He was about to get up and go out.


    Feng Xin suddenly said, "wait a minute."


    Jianrong stopped.


    "Where were you last night?"


    Jianrong''s body was stiff and didn''t dare to move.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "last night, the Marquis summoned. He went to meet the messenger. No, isn''t this the letter he brought? "


    Feng Xin said suspiciously, "is it?"


    "You go." With a sigh of relief, he immediately dodged outside the door.


    She sighed and turned to Feng Xin. "Since some things happen between half dreaming and half waking, why don''t you just think it''s a dream?"


    "I''ve never been vague about Fengxin."


    "He actually had to save you to do that. What if you know the man? Promise each other? Or beat it up? "


    "I''m going to kill him," Feng Xin said gnashing his teeth. "He''s broken! To vent my hatred! "


    "Hey, at least someone saved you." Zhuo Xi shrunk her neck. The room outside the door also shrunk its neck.


    "Do I want him to save me? If you save me like this, you might as well die! " Feng Xin said bitterly.


    "Sit down and have a drink. You tell me, you have the appearance of a city and a country. Why do you pretend to be a man? "


    Feng Xin glanced at her and said coldly, "where do I pretend to be? What can I do if the world thinks I''m a man when I''m so dressed to attract bees and butterflies? "


    Zhuo Xi choked. Looking at the light pink clothes she was wearing, she didn''t know how to answer. She was telling the truth. Although she didn''t say she was a woman, she did not say she was a man.


    "But you''re girded!" Zhuo Xi pointed out the facts.


    "That''s because I often have to fly around. Those two balls of meat shake on my chest and make me very upset."


    Zhuo Xi spits out a mouthful of tea. Is such an excuse OK? It seems that it makes sense logically. In ancient times, there was no bra. Sometimes walking fast felt cumbersome, and the sense of existence was too strong.


    "You don''t have your hair tied." Which girl doesn''t like to put a gold hairpin and a silver hairpin on her head? It''s her. She has to be tossed about for half an hour every day.


    "Who says women must have their hair tied?" Feng Xin said coldly.


    "That''s true." Zhuo Xi was speechless. "By the way, speaking of hair binding, how can you be blue today? Where''s Xianglan? "


    Feng Xin sneered, "do you want to change the topic? Xianglan has long been sent away by me. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "then, about this transaction, can I consider it for two days?"


    "Yes, I have plenty of time, but I will follow you these two days."


    Zhuo Xi found the biggest loophole, "you call yourself childe, why do you call yourself childe?"


    "It''s just habit." Fengxin was calm and decided not to talk to her again.


    Zhuo Xi had to prepare to change clothes under her burning gaze. Suddenly, she had another idea and cried, "Jianrong, you write to your master and say that the hyacinth childe peeped at me to change clothes."


    Feng Xin jumped up, "dare you!"


    She shouted, "no, she didn''t peek."


    Feng Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Zhuo Xi said, "she''s just looking."


    Without saying a word, Feng Xin grabbed Zhuo Xi''s neck. Zhuo Xi ducked and his right hand split her left shoulder. Feng Xin opened his left hand and threw his right hand at her neck. Zhuo Xi''s left hand cleaved to her right hand from bottom to top, and her body leaned back to avoid her iron claw. Although her left hand cleaved to her fingertip, it felt like iron cutting pain. Before she could stand still, Feng Xin''s right hand came to her neck as fast as lightning for the third time. This time, she had no power to fight back, so she had to catch it.


    Jianrong has flown in and attacked Fengxin. Fengxin''s martial arts are really good. Hold Zhuo Xi''s neck and fight with Jianrong with one hand and one foot. Within five moves, Jianrong has been kicked far by her.


    Zhuo Xi saw this and smiled, "great Xia, childe, thank you for your mercy." She knew that Feng Xin didn''t mean to kill herself. Otherwise, if she kicked her, she would die.


    Feng Xin looked at her coldly. She immediately understood, "if you don''t say it, I won''t tell Jing Yuan."


    Feng Xin shook his hand, "hum! You know. "


    "I''m kidding, as for you?!" It''s hard to mess with.


    Feng Xin glared at her again. Zhuo Xi shrunk her head and saw Jianrong lying on the ground, staring at Feng Xin''s eyes. She was surprised and hurried to take two steps to block Feng Xin''s line of sight. She drank, "Jianrong, don''t you go out yet?!"


    Jianrong stumbled out, but he listened to Zhuo Xi''s orders, "by the way, I just said something for you to do. Go to inform housekeeper Zhou and ask him to send some servants to cage this tin of shuixuan things. I''m going to move today! Then find Xianglan and let her see the arrangement. "


    He whispered "promise", but he didn''t dare to look back.

 Chapter 39

    Feng Xin followed Zhuo Xi into the newly-built Furong house and said that it was false not to shock.


    There are several rooms on each floor, with clean rooms and a large hall. The pattern completely breaks the original house structure. Zhuo Xi chose the largest room on the second floor. The bed was surprisingly large, the net room in the room was also very large, and a small bath was built. She used the clean room quietly. She didn''t know how the sewage in the clean room flowed down. In short, it was very clean and convenient. She heard Zhuo Xi call the new clean room bathroom.


    She nestled in the sofa in the living room on the second floor and watched Zhuo Xi command a group of servants to move in and out. Her eyes couldn''t help showing a trace of envy. Zhuo Xi finished his work and sat down next to the small table by the window. On the small table, he simmered hot water with charcoal. She flushed the jade pot with hot water, then put jasmine tea into the jade pot to brew, and then waved to Feng Xin, "ah Xin, come here."


    A Xin? Feng Xin''s face is covered with black lines. What''s the name? She got up and reluctantly left the comfortable sofa and sat down at the window.


    "The house has been built for more than a month. Before that, the paint smell was too strong, so I left it vacant for ventilation. Now you smell it, it tastes heavy? "


    Feng Xin shook his head, "OK. On the contrary, the tea is very fragrant. " She paused. "Your clean room is well designed." I even smoked it with incense.


    "Well, it''s much more convenient and clean. But what I''m most proud of is the bath. "


    Hyacinth''s eyes lit up.


    "I set up a stove on the top floor, and special personnel are assigned to store and boil water every day. If you want to take a bath, you can pull the bell at the edge of the bath three times. Soon, hot water will flow out of the Jiulong mouth on the wall of the bath. When the water is enough, pull the bell again and the water will stop. After washing, open the cloth strip stuffed under it, so that the dirty water can flow to the first floor and drain into the ditch. " Zhuo Xi said proudly, looking at Feng Xin''s yearning eyes, and said, "there are only two rooms on the third floor, and the other half is a big balcony. You can dry clothes and all kinds of fruits and vegetables. You can eat fresh when you have a good harvest."


    "How can you only plant fruits and vegetables on such a great balcony? We should plant some green bamboo flowers to make the room fragrant. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled in her heart and said, "hyacinth is free and easy. How can ordinary green bamboo flowers come into your eyes? If you have the black jade peony on the side, when you taste the jasmine tea, you have to smell a piece of fairy music, and then overlook the quiet lake, there must be no troubles in the world. At night, put a small couch under the night sky, the bright moon and rare stars are close enough to be picked, and have a pot of grape wine at hand. Tut Tut, that''s really blissful in the world. "


    Feng Xin suddenly put down his tea cup, stood up and sat down again¡° Miss, is the room on the third floor waiting for the Lord to check in? "


    Zhuo Xi glanced. "Lord Hou has his own linyue Pavilion. Why did he move here again? Besides, if men and women don''t give and receive, he can''t stay. "


    "Is that true?"


    "Absolutely true."


    "Leave the third floor to my son!" Feng Xin stood up and patted the table.


    "Let Xiaobai go!" Zhuo Xi also stood up and patted the table.


    "It''s a deal, but your Python gall powder will give it to me."


    "No problem! High five is an oath! " Zhuo Xi immediately stretched out her hand for fear that she would repent.


    Without hesitation, Feng Xin slapped her, "I''ll bring the things right away!" With that, she disappeared directly from the window.


    Zhuo Xi touched her nose and wanted to find a face. She suspected that she had been deceived.


    When she waved, her face appeared. She said quickly, "I just sent her away. Tell me, how did you wipe people''s food dry and walk away?"


    "Last night, my subordinates just got a signal from the Lord''s personal guard and went out. Unexpectedly, she came to your room to ask for someone. My subordinates were supposed to come out and admit everything. "


    "I see," Zhuo Xi interrupted him. At that time, she stopped him from standing up and admitting, "what are you going to do in the future?"


    "Naturally, explain everything to her. Subordinates, subordinates dare to ask the Marquis and the girl to marry Fengxin!"


    "You''re not afraid of her. Do you really break you to pieces? Your martial arts can''t beat her. "


    "The eldest husband dare to do it. Even if he dies, his subordinates will never escape!"


    "You have a responsibility. I will help you. Don''t say anything first. "


    Jianrong hesitated and nodded.


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "just now the conditions were so smooth. Was this girl cheated by her?"


    "She may not really want to nod. It has been nearly half a month since she came to Hou''s house. If she wanted to do it, she would have done it long ago. "


    Zhuo Xi grabbed her hair and banged the window lattice. It''s really messy to care. Why didn''t she find this loophole? But she just gave up investigating the man last night?


    Zhuo Xi laughed again, "it seems that what man is not as important to her as a room!"


    Jianrong lowered his head and was depressed. Girl, I don''t seem to have offended you.


    She took the letter out of her arms. Jing Yuan has been away for half a month. This is the first letter he wrote. The words are very beautiful. She doesn''t know why she has an inexplicable warm feeling. Perhaps she has lived two lives. This is the first time she has received a handwritten letter. After reading the letter with joy, he told Jianrong, "your master is going well. He has received the remains of his mother''s concubine and is getting up and going back to Kyoto. At this time, I think I have reached Xishui. "


    Jianrong also breathed out, "that''s good. Princess Xianru finally came back."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly began to gossip, "do you know how Xianru imperial concubine died in Gelao family?"


    "My subordinates are not very clear about this. Xianru imperial concubine is the princess presented by Gelao people in the 12th year of Shengwu. In the 32nd year of Shengwu, she said she had left her relatives for 20 years and wanted to go back and have a look. So the first king allowed him to go back to Gelao to save his relatives. Unexpectedly, more than a month later, I heard that she was seriously ill and died. She was the first king''s wife Ru. After her death, the first king made her Princess Ru. The imperial concubine is second only to the imperial concubine of the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, she was only lady Qing. Now the Empress Dowager seems quite dissatisfied with this. "


    Five years have passed since the thirty second year of Shengwu. Then why did you go to welcome back at this time? "


    "It is said that Princess Xianru left a letter to the former king on her deathbed, saying that she would never meet the former king in this life. She could only move the coffin into the mausoleum after the former king died."


    She took a breath of air conditioning. "Did the first king agree?"


    "The original reason was unknown to outsiders, but the former king was very sad. He was ill for more than half a month and gradually recovered."


    "Where was the Marquis at that time?"


    "Lord Hou is leading troops in Liangzhou to block the state of datan and has repeatedly made military achievements. After the first king recovered, he called the Marquis back to Beijing and ordered him to be a general of the town, holding the yin-yang runes of Liangzhou. He also ordered that no one should take Guo unless he was willing. "


    It turned out that there was such a story five years ago. Holding yin-yang runes is not a small thing. She knew that most generals could only hold the Yin talisman, and the Yang talisman was generally in the hands of the king. Only when they really needed to dispatch troops to resist the enemy could they match the Yin and Yang. In that case, he must be eyeing many people when he goes out. Will he have a smooth trip?


    "How many people did the Marquis take with him?" The success made her feel a little uneasy.


    "According to the system, the Marquis has only 500 guards."


    Five hundred people, she mused, "what''s going on in the prince''s house recently?"


    Jianrong was stunned and shook his head. "Recently, the prince is taking his twelve counselors to control the flood in Puzhou, Shazhou and mangzhou in the northwest."


    Zhuo Xi''s index finger pointed up, "what about up there?"


    "It seems not. Half a month ago, disaster relief funds were allocated to the three counties of pozhou, but I heard that the damage was serious, and the disaster funds were only a drop in the bucket. The king is raising the next batch of donations, and even mobilized the concubines of the six palaces to raise donations together. It is said that the queen even donated her favorite hairpin ring. "


    "Do you know where the newly made weapons have been transported in the mine recently?"


    Jianrong thought, "the two border cities of Hequan county are often plundered by Changdi. The king ordered people to send new weapons to these two places to strengthen the border defense."


    Zhuo Xi thought for a while, found out the map taken from the mausoleum, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly said loudly, "no! The Marquis is in danger! "


    "How can there be danger?"


    As soon as the window turned, Feng Xin also floated in and said anxiously, "how is there danger?!"


    When Jianrong suddenly saw Fengxin''s peerless face, he couldn''t help being stunned. There were five flavors in his heart, and he couldn''t tell the taste.


    Zhuo Xi pointed to the map, "look. Hequan county is located in the northwest, and Po Chau, Sha Chau and mang Chau are also in the north. Gelao nationality is located in the West and north of heyongguan, which is sandwiched between heyongguan and the three counties of pozhou, and Hequan county is behind the three counties of pozhou. If you want to supply troops with food and grass, you can reach it in half a day. Xishui is located in the lower reaches of Luohe River next to the three counties in pozhou, and Luohe River is crossing Xishui. I''m afraid the prince''s highness is not going to cure the water, but to store water. "


    Jianrong was surprised, "what does the girl mean, the prince wants to flood Xishui County?"


    "Exactly. If this picture is accurate, Xishui county is the only way for Hou ye to go from Mashi County, where Gelao nationality is located, to Kyoto, and the distance between the two places is about 100 Li, which is the foot journey of a fine horse. When the Marquis and his party arrived in Xishui County, they were tired, so naturally they had to rest for a night. "


    "If the prince floods Xishui County, the price will be too high." Feng Xin is a little unbelievable.


    "Royal disputes, what is this human life? Besides, with flood as a cover, who can think that this is a man-made disaster rather than a natural disaster? "


    He got up angrily. "Girl, I''ll send someone to report now."


    "It''s too late." Zhuo Xi sighed, "this letter was sent five days ago. It says that they will leave for Kyoto in three days. According to this time, they should have reached Xishui last night."


    Jianrong said again, "however, the dark Wei who came to deliver the letter last night did not say that the Marquis was in danger."


    "The express horse from Xishui to Kyoto takes three days. Even if the Marquis was in danger last night, the news may not come so soon."


    "No." Jianrong said, "we have a method of communication in case of emergency. There is no need to send it by fast horse. It takes only half an hour to get from here to Xishui. If the Marquis was in danger last night, we would have received the news. "


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. "Really?"


    Jianrong took out several round balls. "Once this red ball came out, it would ignite strong red smoke, which can be seen within five miles. This is our help signal in case of distress; To transmit to the distance, add yellow smoke. The remaining blue, purple, black and white represent the four transmission directions of East, West, North and south, which is an alarm signal. "


    "What if it rains and gets dark?"


    "There is also a strong fire bomb that can illuminate the smoke for a quarter of an hour."


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. Unexpectedly, Jing Yuan left this hand, "immediately sent a warning to the marquis. If he hadn''t arrived at Xishui yesterday, there must have been a delay on the road, and he might have arrived at Xishui tonight. "


    "After the west water, it is Longxugou."


    "That''s right. You can arrange it. We''ll go to Longxugou to meet Hou Ye."


    Jianrong immediately took orders.


    Zhuo Xi said to Feng Xin again, "a Xin, I know you have been in love with Hou ye for a long time. At this time, he is in danger. Do you want to save him?"


    Feng Xin sneered, "who do I like? What''s your business? But it''s my responsibility to protect and save him. Go ahead, what do you want me to do? "


    Why responsibility? Zhuo Xi couldn''t understand the meaning of her words, but it was obviously not a good opportunity to discuss the matter at this time. She made a quick decision, "your feet are fast and your martial arts are good. Would you please go to Heyong pass to find Wang Feng and bring me a word?"


    "What do you say?"


    "Just say, when will he return the money he owes me?"

 Chapter 40

    After Fengxin left, Jianrong soon came back to reply, saying that the subpoena had been arranged.


    Zhuo Xi made a quick decision and ordered him to prepare his horse immediately. As he walked, he asked, "how many hands can you transfer now?"


    "A total of 2000 soldiers of the 15th battalion who had withdrawn from the imperial mausoleum with the Marquis and the additional recruits were stationed in the suburbs of Beijing. Plus the dark guards and bodyguards in the house, there are about 200 people. "


    "Take them, meet the soldiers in the suburbs of Beijing and set out immediately." She said she had stepped on a fine horse.


    "But..."


    "But what?"


    "Although the two thousand soldiers obey the orders of the Lord, now the Lord is not here, I''m afraid..."


    "Go and find their camp first."


    Jianrong then got on a horse, and the party drove the horse in a hurry.


    "Girl, it''s not that we are greedy for life and afraid of death. It''s just that military orders are like mountains. Moving without orders is a capital crime!" After Jianrong told Yu Liang the whole story, Yu Liang, the commander of the 15th battalion, was embarrassed.


    Jianrong angrily said, "things are urgent and powerful. Yu Liang, you are loyal on weekdays. Now the situation is urgent. Why do you delay for some reason? If something happens to the Marquis, can you afford it? "


    "My Lord, calm down. You and the dark guards can move freely, but the slightest carelessness of more than 2000 people in our camp is the capital crime of copying the family and destroying the family. The Lord is as kind to us as a mountain, but if you rashly send troops based on your inference, not only us but also the Lord will be implicated if the king finds out. Let me ask you, does the Marquis have an urgent letter for help? " Yu Liang asked.


    "It''s too late to deliver the letter."


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand and stopped him. "General Yu, if you leave a hundred people in the camp to live as usual, make a fire to hide people''s ears and eyes, and accompany you in civilian clothes, you can be regarded as violating the military order?" She knew that since the last verdant mountain, these people have been much more cautious and unwilling to take risks.


    Yu Liang pondered, "sneaking in civilian clothes can really hide people''s ears and eyes. If you can come back before dawn, maybe no one will notice. However, if there are casualties when they come back, they will be on the list... "


    Zhuo Xi took out a golden seal, "can the general recognize this thing?"


    Yu Liang looked carefully and was surprised, "this is the golden seal of the Marquis!"


    "Yes, if it''s fake. Before leaving, the Marquis gave me the right to make arbitrary decisions. "


    Yu Liang immediately gave a half kneeling salute, "girl, the 15th battalion of Baihui army is waiting for your orders!"


    Zhuo Xi said, "this matter can''t be too quiet. As I just said, leave more than 100 people to take care of the camp, and the rest go with them in plain clothes. Don''t attract too much attention. Although the Marquis has Yin and Yang runes and can dispatch troops alone, don''t add trouble to him. " Her words were so good that Yu Liang nodded frequently and took orders to do it.


    As the deputy commander, Wu Xing didn''t say a word, but after Yu Liang left, he approached Zhuo Xi and whispered to her, "this Yu Liang has to be prevented."


    Zhuo Xi said, "why?"


    "I saw him during the recruitment..." he whispered a few words to her.


    "Let''s see first." Zhuo Xi''s eyes couldn''t help but cast themselves into the distance. He didn''t know whether Fengxin had found reinforcements smoothly.


    After a day of running in plain clothes, they changed three batches of horses separately and finally reached Longxugou when it was getting dark the next day.


    The first night, a dark guard came to report that the Marquis was attacked, but the signal level has not reached the highest level. It seems that they have encountered an ambush in Xishui. The situation has not reached the most serious level. It seems that Fengxin''s reinforcements have arrived. Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She suddenly found that she didn''t want to see Jing Yuan shed a drop of blood and get hurt. This man, unknowingly, has quietly settled in her heart, but he doesn''t know what this sprouting tooth can grow into.


    Longxugou, as its name suggests, is a long and narrow valley. Anyone who is good at raids will never let go of this terrain. Therefore, they did not dare to rush into the ditch and only stopped at the first few hundred meters.


    Zhuo Xi asked Yu Liang to send a marquis to observe the terrain and told them to be careful. In addition, he asked Wu Xing to take 200 people to cut branches in the small forest on one side.


    "Girl," said Jianrong, a little expectantly, and he was about to stop talking.


    "What''s up, say!" Zhuo Xi is full of worries.


    "There is a legend in Longxugou."


    "What legend?" Zhuo Xi is interested.


    "It is said that several decades ago, there was a female prisoner who was exiled for three thousand miles. On the way to the exile, two officers and soldiers passed by here. The two officers and soldiers saw color and took the female prisoner in rotation here. Unexpectedly, the female prisoner was already pregnant. As a result, she had a miscarriage on the spot. She was crazy. She killed two officers and soldiers with her bare hands and roasted them on the fire. A month later, the official office of the exile saw that people were late and sent people to find them along the way. Only the clothes, discs and a pile of white bones of the officers and soldiers were found in the dragon beard ditch. Later, from time to time, people found human bones in the valley. Others said that at night, there was a cloudy wind in the dragon beard ditch, and the woman turned into a fierce ghost and waited for passers-by here. So gradually no one dared to pass through the dragon beard ditch at night. "


    "The wind is everywhere." These four words suddenly gave Zhuo Xi some inspiration. She waved, motioned to her ear, and whispered a few words to him.


    When it was getting dark, he denounced the Marquis to report. It seemed that he had seen the Marquis and his party approaching gradually, and there was an ambush at the north end of the middle of the narrow valley. According to Zhuo Xi''s instructions, Jianrong took a group of abandoned horses and cats to walk in the mountains on both sides of the narrow valley. They were dressed in black, covered their heads and faces, and left only two eyes. Soon after walking through the forest, there was an ambush. They broke up into parts, killed one by one, and quietly solved a large number of people.


    When it was completely dark, Jing Yuan and his party drove their horses into the valley.


    Zhuo Xi led the remaining 200 people, tied the branches to the horse''s tail, and drove the horse through the narrow valley. Soon I met Jingyuan head-on.


    Jing Yuan and his party saw a line of cavalry coming ahead. They didn''t know whether it was an enemy or a friend, but they turned back and were also chasing soldiers, so they stopped and waited and looked warily at the unexpected group of masked people in front of them.


    Zhuo Xi also covered her face, laughed and said loudly, "I opened this road and planted this tree. If you want to live from now on, leave the money to buy the road!" The horse did not stop, and a group of people rushed past them. Jing Yuan was surrounded by Jian Yi. When he heard this, he was shocked and angry. He immediately pulled the reins, turned around and broke out of the encirclement of Jian Yi, and ran away with the brigade Wu. He shouted, "it''s nonsense!" Jian Yi, Zi Ran and others looked at each other, and they also turned around and ran to the original road with the rest of them.


    The leader of the ambush on the mountain was overjoyed when he saw that Jing Yuan had marched through the narrow valley. He was quietly waiting for them to send a signal to start the raid as soon as they walked close. But I saw a group of people coming from the other direction. There were bursts of horseshoes and thick smoke. I don''t know how many people and horses were divided between us and the enemy. Hesitating, he smelled a sweet smell in the air. He was trying to speak, and suddenly found that he couldn''t make a sound. After looking at his back, he was scared to seven souls. He saw hundreds of ghost eyes floating in the dark woods, blinking. He also saw a cloud of black smoke floating in the already dark night sky. Everywhere he went, his brothers fell quietly. He was terrified and shouted silently, but he broke his throat and couldn''t hear his voice, so he had to dance. The brothers beside him also found the same strange situation and were shocked. At this time, no one paid attention to the situation at the foot of the slope. He raised his hand and waved the war flag regardless of March 7 and 21. When the only brothers saw the signal, they did not care about the movement of the people in the valley. They only pushed the large stones and rolling logs prepared at hand down the slope one after another. Those soldiers who carried out the close killing mission rushed down the slope one after another and would rather kill with the people at the foot of the mountain, I don''t want to fight with those hundreds of ghost eyes. They were fast, and the ghost eye was faster. In a moment, the soldiers who rushed down the hillside fell down silently.


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi both heard the sound of rolling stones from the hillside behind them. Zhuo Xi shouted loudly and cheerfully,


    "I''m looking up at the moon


    How many dreams are flying freely


    Yesterday, forgetting dried the sadness


    I want to meet you again on that vast road


    Life has been dragged by the ebb and flow of the tide


    The distance with you is heaven


    I wait, I imagine my soul has long been out of stiffness


    The sound of a horse''s hoof rises and falls ohyeahohyeah


    The invisible moment, the eternal


    The grass is growing and the snow is flying ohyeahohyeah "(Legend of the Phoenix, on the grassland)


    Until she finished singing, she stopped her horse, but felt that the horse was short, a figure fell behind her and held her tightly in her arms. She felt the trembling breath of the people around her. She couldn''t help feeling soft. She pulled down the black mask, adjusted her breathing, and said softly, "it''s all right."


    "How dare you!" Jing Yuan was still angry and had to say something, but he heard a frightened cry from behind, "ghost! Ghost! "


    Zhuo Xi laughed even more when she heard this. They followed up, indicating that the ambush had been solved!


    Sure enough, a group of ghost eyes blinked and gradually approached.


    Zhuo Xi said loudly, "don''t be afraid, it''s your own." She raised her voice and said to the distance, "wipe it, it scares the brothers!"


    Sure enough, the ghost eye immediately disappeared. A group of people in black took off their masks and walked closer. It was Jianrong who was the first. He saluted Jing Yuan and said, "girl, all the 3000 ambushes on that slope were wiped out. Only more than 260 people in our department were seriously injured, the rest were slightly injured, and no one died."


    "You didn''t waste a soldier and a soldier and destroy their 3000 ambushes?" Yi Jing said


    "Thanks to miss Zhuo Xi''s clever plan!"


    "Ha ha," Zhuo Xi took out a bottle of shiny things from her sleeve and threw it to Jian Yi, "isn''t it the ghost story you told me? I just remembered it. This is a glittering powder, which can be seen at night. They just painted it on their eyelids. It looks like a ghost eye. It scared them half to death. You can scare people if you are interested in it in the future. As for the smoke that makes them dumb and paralyzed, I won''t give it to you. It took me a lot of effort to make it. "


    Jianyi dismounted and gave Zhuo Xi a big gift, "thank you for saving your life tonight! We owe the girl another life! "


    Zi Ran and other guards also dismounted and gave a big gift, "thank you for saving your life, miss!"


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand. "No thanks, no thanks. One hundred people, it''s over."


    "What?" Jing Yuan didn''t respond and was stunned.


    "I said, in addition to the Marquis, when you return to the house, one person will pay me 100 yuan, and the grace of saving lives will be paid back."


    "Hahaha ~" Jing Yuan laughed loudly, and the rest of the people looked black.


    Zhuo Xi turned her head and looked at him carefully. Her face was ashen. Her clothes were also stained with blood and stains, but she smiled as if the sun and moon were shining. She couldn''t help looking a little crazy. The chest behind him laughed and thought of the warmth of those sleepless nights when he held her in his arms, and the feeling in his heart was softer. So he completely ignored the ridicule in his laughter, stroked the back of his hand and said, "since the road ahead is smooth, let''s go back now."


    Jing Yuan held her hand with his back hand, grabbed the reins with his other hand and shouted, "drive! Those who go back to the camp go back to the camp, those who go back to the house go back to the house, and then reward them for their achievements! "


    On a hillside in the distance, Wang Feng said to the people around him, "you see, the people I sent have not taken action, and the crisis has been lifted."


    The wind whispered coldly, "your people are too slow."


    "Well, Miss Zhuo Xi''s medical fee..."


    "Owe again." Hyacinth didn''t feel embarrassed at all.


    It was two days later when I returned to the mansion. Zhuo Xi didn''t know until she got to the house that the white little soldier who had been following the crowd was a girl and the youngest daughter of the Gelao patriarch. In other words, from the perspective of blood relationship, she should be regarded as Jing Yuan''s cousin. Since Jing Yuan didn''t tell her that she needed to take special care of the little girl before she left, but when mother Wu came to ask her for advice, she kindly asked, "what possible identity does she have besides being a cousin?" Mother Wu shook her head blankly. Zhuo Xi gave a faint order, "take her to listen to the water Pavilion, and compare all the expenses with the young lady in the house." Although there was no young lady in Hou''s house, there were still cases in black and white, which would not neglect her or lose her identity as the daughter of the patriarch. Mother Wu also agreed with this treatment and went out to arrange it with satisfaction.


    After changing his clothes, Jing Yuan immediately went to the palace to recover his life from the king. He didn''t mention the attack on the way. He asked for orders to go to the king''s Mausoleum immediately to bury Princess Wang in the mausoleum and enter the house. It was the morning of the third day. He didn''t know that the two girls in the house had made hundreds of moves in the past three days.


    First of all, on the morning of the first day, the little girl named Yao Ya went to the Furong house where Zhuo Xi lived in a murderous manner and accused her of arranging too simple a residence for her. Her original words were like this, "Miss Ben will be the hostess of the Hou house. You are a seven grade female official. Why can you live better than me? And this food. Is this what people eat? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t wake up at that time. She was angry when she got up. When she went to the living room, she was scolded. She was angry from her heart, "listen to shuixuan, which is the residence prepared by the Lord for the future Lord''s wife. If you dislike it, you might as well move elsewhere. This food is prepared according to the Lord''s breakfast standard. If you are not satisfied, are you dissatisfied with the Lord? " After she moved out, she heard mother Wu say that the shuixuan was built according to the system of Hou Ye''s wife.


    Yao Yao sneered frequently, "nvshi, don''t you deceive me that I''m young or that I''m blind? Every stone and tree in your house is much more noble than that of the listening Water Pavilion. There are three floors. Will you still live in the broken listening Water Pavilion if the noble Marquis and his wife don''t live here in the future? You, a female historian, forcibly occupy the Lord''s wife''s bedroom. What crime should you commit? "


    This woman''s thinking is too jumping, isn''t it? Zhuo Xi yawned and didn''t bother to argue with her. She just wanted to finish quickly and go back to bed, so she called upstairs, "a Xin!"


    When Feng Xin flew down, Yao Yao was stunned.


    Feng Xin raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi pointed to Yao Yao, "she means she wants to move here. You can do it."


    Yao Yao wanted to shake her head reflexively, and thought that''s why she came here? So he nodded confidently, "so what?"


    Feng Xin gave a faint, hoarse voice, sparing words like gold, "No."


    "You, you, are you a man or a woman?" Yao Yao took a step back in panic.


    "My son is a man or a woman. What do you want?"


    Yao Yao turned her finger and pointed to Zhuo Xi, "you are so bold that you live in the same building with a man!"


    Zhuo Xi shrugged. "Do you want to come again?"


    "This girl is coming." Yao Yao said confidently, "but you, and you, move out immediately!" Her fingers pointed one by one.


    "Why?"


    "Just because I am the future Hou Ye''s wife!"


    "You deserve it? Miss wang hasn''t passed the door yet! " Feng Xin looked at her contemptuously.


    She screamed, "which Miss Wang?"


    Feng Xin was too lazy to talk nonsense to her, so she threw her out with her collar.


    Zhuo Xi saw it, clapped her hands, praised it and went back to bed.

 Chapter 41

    Then in the evening, Zhuo Xi just finished her work and returned to the house in a good mood. At a glance, she saw Xianglan standing outside the door waiting anxiously. As soon as she saw her, she came to see the ceremony and said that Miss Yao had been waiting in Furong house all afternoon. When asked what she was doing in Furong house, Xianglan hesitated that she had been tossing in the bathroom for a long time.


    Zhuo Xi chuckled, "she''s brave enough. She knows that Fengxin lives here. Does she dare to come and take a bath?"


    Xianglan said, "early in the morning, she rushed to distribute silver money to the mother of the servants in the house. Seeing that it was difficult to use it, she took a bodyguard to go directly to the people''s children''s house and bought a girl in the morning. Xu heard from the servants that the bathroom of Furong house was very comfortable, and that the hyacinth childe had gone out at noon and was not in the house. Now the girl is watching for her outside. "


    It''s a brain. I heard the most distinctive function of Furong house so soon. Zhuo Xi asked casually, "which room is she bathing in?"


    "She, she..." Xianglan''s face was almost red.


    Zhuo Xi saw that she couldn''t speak for a long time. He took a look at her face and suddenly woke up, "in ah Xin''s room?"


    She thought again, "if she knows it''s a Xin''s room, how dare she go? Did she go wrong? "


    Xianglan''s face was better, "yes. Hyacinth doesn''t like the moisture in the bath, which makes the room wet, so he usually takes a bath in the uninhabited room next door. "


    I see. Besides, when Yao Ya went in to wash, she found that there were women''s bath supplies. She must think that the bathroom was used by Zhuo Xi herself.


    Zhuo Xi chuckled, "is ah Xin back?"


    "Not yet. The maidservant had already lost her tongue with the little girl, but she just couldn''t listen. The maidservant was afraid and Fengxin''s son came back... "Her face turned red again.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. The little girl didn''t believe her to Feng... She smiled, "if Miss Yao just came to take a bath, it wouldn''t matter. Are you afraid that ah Xin is angry, or that she should not see it? "


    Xianglan said, "Miss, if this thing gets out, I''m afraid miss Yao''s reputation..."


    Zhuo Xi said positively, "are you afraid that Miss Yao''s reputation will be damaged, or that Miss Yao''s reputation will involve ah Xin, and ah Xin will be responsible for it?"


    Xianglan hesitated, "no matter which kind, Yu Hou''s house, Yu Fengxin''s son and Miss Yao are unfavorable."


    Zhuo Xi took her and looked at her seriously. "Xianglan, I always take you as my sister. You are very intelligent and have a great future in the future. Don''t plant it on this love word. Tell me honestly, are you interested in ah Xin? "


    Xianglan blushed and stamped, "Miss, you are used to making fun of me. Fengxin childe has outstanding wind resources. Xianglan, how can Xianglan deserve... "


    "Tell me, I live upstairs and downstairs with him. Although I live in layers, it''s very inappropriate for men''s and women''s defense. Why didn''t you object and say that my reputation was damaged? Now that Miss Yao is here, you''re worried about her?"


    Xianglan immediately fell on his knees, "Miss, I know I''m wrong."


    Zhuo Xi pulled her up, sighed and whispered, "Xianglan, it''s not wrong to like a person. But if you don''t see a person''s essence and like his appearance rashly, it''s a pity that you are as smart as you. Some things can''t just look at the surface. Except for a Xin''s hoarse voice and claiming to be a childe, where does he look like a man? " This sounds like several meanings, but she really wants to express the most direct and superficial meaning, especially her emphasis on the two words of man, "if you observe carefully, you will find the truth. You can be close to her and make friends with her, but you can''t like her. Do you understand? "


    Xianglan''s eyes have overflowed with tears. She wrongfully defends him for injustice. Young master hyacinth has excellent martial arts and is straightforward. Why doesn''t he look like a man¡° Does the young lady mean... "She suddenly widened her eyes, saw Zhuo Xi nodding slightly, stood there in amazement, and didn''t even notice that Zhuo Xi had gone.


    Zhuo Xi returned to her residence on the second floor of Furong residence. Sure enough, she heard the song from upstairs. It seems that Yao Yao Yao has not had fun after taking a bath all afternoon. She is so happy that she hummed a song.


    She doesn''t worry about what will happen when ah Xin comes back. Even if it happens, it''s their business. It''s a big deal that Yao Yao is thrown out again. She doesn''t bother to meddle in this business. If she has time, she might as well figure out where to find a national model.


    Suddenly she heard a scream upstairs, deafening.


    Then I heard a roar from ah Xin, "get out!"


    Then there was a flustered sound of footsteps, down the stairs to the first floor, and then disappeared.


    Ah Xin is back? Zhuo Xi smiled. A Wulin expert like her, where can a little girl stand at the entrance of the stairs? She had never seen a Xin walk into the room by the stairs. Maybe she just turned in through the bathroom window. She wanted to laugh when Yao Yao Yao was humming excitedly when a man suddenly appeared in front of the window and ran away in panic.


    This girl who doesn''t know the heaven and earth should suffer a little.


    Unexpectedly, the next day, Yao Yao came to the door with her food box early in the morning and went straight to the third floor. While patting the door, she shouted greasily, "brother hyacinth, I''ve brought you food."


    After a while, I heard the voice of Feng Xin pulling her out.


    Yao Ya''s martial arts are also excellent. After turning over, she flew up again and made persistent efforts. "Brother hyacinth, this is the Begonia pastry in my hometown. It''s delicious. You can taste it..."


    "Pa -" the sound of being thrown out of the window again.


    Zhuo Xi listened downstairs and shook her head and sighed. People without lightness skills can''t afford to hurt!


    When Yao Yao Yao flew up again, "wind..." just said one word, he heard the window closed mercilessly. Yao Yao had to go to the balcony from the other side, stood at the door of the living room and whispered something in anticipation.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t hear. She hooked her mouth and went downstairs for breakfast.


    When he sat down at the table, he saw Feng Xin in red coming in through the door and sitting down at the table.


    "You..." she just said one word and saw Feng Xin put her index finger on her lips and whispered, "let me stop for a while..."


    It can be seen that she secretly turned out of the window. Yao Yao thought she was in the room, talking to the air alone.


    "Poor little girl." Zhuo Xi whispered and gave her a bowl of porridge.


    "Poor her? I''m pathetic! She woke me up early in the morning. I went to bed late last night. "


    "Oh? What did you do last night? " Zhuo Xi asked casually.


    "Nothing, just to find out the guy who drugged me last time."


    "Oh? How did you report it? "


    "It''s nothing. I fed him ten bags of Ruo Wuxiang, and then threw him to the blue Fourth Square."


    Zhuo Xi''s porridge gushed out, "ten packs?! Where is the blue Fourth Square? "


    "You don''t know? It''s where the worst male slaves in Kyoto have fun. "


    Zhuo Xi choked hard on the food in her mouth. She deeply felt that she should not offend anyone.


    "I will advise Yao Yao for you."


    "Well, I owe you a favor." Feng Xin said readily.


    But the next second, Zhuo Xi found that the man in front of him whooshed and disappeared. As soon as she turned her head, Yao Yao ran down the stairs. When she saw Zhuo Xi catch her, she asked, "where''s the hyacinth childe? I just heard you two talking."


    "What did you hear?"


    "You spoke too quietly, but I heard his voice."


    Zhuo Xi said, "what are you looking for her?"


    "I''m looking for him. When is it your turn to worry?"


    Zhuo Xi endured her tone and said, "naturally I don''t worry, but I advise you not to provoke ah Xin."


    "How did I annoy him? I just like him and want to be good to him. He should be grateful. " Yao Yao raised her head, held her chest high and her toes high.


    This woman''s brain circuit is simply not on the same frequency as normal people. Zhuo Xi decided to eat her words and get fat. Besides, she just advised her and didn''t bother to waste more words with her. "Then please, I''ll have dinner."


    In the evening, Feng Xin came in from Zhuo Xi''s window with a sad face. Zhuo Xi began to sleep again recently. She couldn''t sleep very well until very late. She was looking at the moon outside the window counting sheep. Suddenly she saw a figure floating in and immediately screamed "ghost." At the first word, the ghost floated to her and covered her mouth.


    Feng Xin whispered, "it''s me. Don''t shout."


    Zhuo Xi was still in shock. "Brother, no, sister, don''t take such a scary one. What are you doing here in the middle of the night? "


    Feng Xin annoyed and pointed upstairs, "she''s still waiting up there. Didn''t you say to persuade her? Did you persuade me? "


    "Naturally. When she came down after you left in the morning, I advised her not to annoy you. She didn''t listen and said she liked you. "


    "This little hoof without face and skin." Feng Xin seldom scolded.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "you always show people in men''s clothes. You''re so handsome. Haven''t you ever had a little girl stick to you before?"


    Feng Xin said, "yes, but I usually don''t come back after I throw it out several times." I guess it''s still light.


    Zhuo Xi was suddenly nervous. "Ah Xin, you must remember that I can''t use lightness skills."


    Feng Xin said strangely, "I know. I remember. Why emphasize it again?"


    "I''m afraid you''ll forget one day and throw me directly from the third floor. Then I''ll be disabled if I don''t die."


    Feng Xin couldn''t help laughing. "No, you never bother me. It''s not in my disgrace. "


    Zhuo Xi also smiled. She just couldn''t sleep tonight. Test whether she could sleep with a woman. Xianglan had been asked by her before, but she refused in horror. So she moved into the bed and motioned to her, "come up. Now only this room on the second floor can sleep. If you don''t mind, just squeeze with me for the night."


    Feng Xin said, "I haven''t bathed yet..."


    Zhuo Xi was dumb. Indeed, she was diligent and thrifty. In the past, they had trouble boiling and loading water. They usually took a bath only once in three or five days. Now with this convenient "faucet" and drainage channel, she has to wash before going to bed every day like Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi had to say, "go wash it, if you don''t mind using my things."


    After a while, Feng Xin shouted inside, "no bath towel." Zhuo Xi got up and took him his bath towel. After a while, I heard him say inside, "can I borrow your pajamas?" Zhuoxi had to bring her another set of clean pajamas.


    When Feng Xin came out wrapped in a scarf, Zhuo Xi was stunned by the weak light. Her cheeks were crimson, her skin seemed to be broken, her facial features were delicate and delicate, and her body was graceful. She was a natural model. She suddenly remembered that she was in need of a national model. Isn''t this person in front of her every day? God, I''m so blind.


    She hooked her hand. "A Xin, I have a way to make Yao Yao stop bothering you from now on."


    "Really?"


    "Yes, but you have to promise me a condition."


    "Don''t say one, I promise even ten conditions!"


    Hyacinth lay down beside her. It seemed that she was not used to sleeping with others. She was far away from Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi turned around deliberately. Her arm touched her side and felt the broken tight bandage. The wind moved out again.


    "I want to talk to you about some private things between girls. Can you hear the room nearby?"


    She smiled. "When I came, he ran away. Strange to say, he used to respect me. Somehow, he seems to have flown away as soon as he sees me. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised and quickly changed the topic, "it''s good if he''s not here. If you have to tie the bandages on your body in the daytime, you must untie them at night, or your chest will get sick over time. "


    "Sick?"


    "Yes, if it collapses too long, it is easy to have lobular hyperplasia. If it is serious, it will get breast cancer. The malignant is cancer. The whole * * should be removed."


    "Can this be removed?! Can you cut it off for me? I have to collapse all day. It''s very uncomfortable. It''s also very uncomfortable not to collapse. "


    Zhuo Xi was speechless. "How many women want a pair of plumpness like you, but you said you didn''t want it! What''s more, for the parents who are physically and physically affected, what really needs to be removed is because their lives are threatened. And if it''s removed, you don''t even want the skin that can be broken by blowing bullets? "


    "Then how? This childe still likes it very much. "


    She began to popularize the relationship between estrogen and ovary, breast and skin.


    "You''re not deceiving me, are you? I have also studied medicine for many years. Why have I never heard of this theory? "


    Zhuo Xi asked in surprise, "you have studied medicine for many years. You should know that women have organs different from men. They must have abnormal diseases such as menstruation, belt, fetus, childbirth and miscellaneous diseases in pathology. It''s hard to be a woman without a. Haven''t you studied it? "


    "I was raised as a boy by master. I always thought I was a man. Until the first monthly letter came, I thought I was ill and asked the doctor for my pulse. The doctor told me that this is a normal phenomenon that women have every month. I understand why Shifu has always told me to be alone in bathing and going to the thatched cottage. I must not be with my senior brother. But at that time, my name as a hyacinth childe had spread, and I didn''t bother to explain anything. But if I get hurt or sick, I''ll carry everything by myself. I''m afraid the doctor will see that I''m a woman. Later I went to learn medicine. " This may be the longest sentence she has ever said.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "I see." Clapping her hand again, "I''ll be there in the future. What can you find me? "


    After a long time, I heard her gently hum.

 Chapter 42

    The next morning. When Jing Yuan stepped into Zhuo Xi''s room, he saw such a scene. Two women in pink pajamas hugged each other on the bed. He immediately closed his eyes and turned around. Feng Xin on the bed woke up immediately, flew into the bathroom, changed yesterday''s clothes and came out.


    Jing Yuan saw the woman in pink go in, but a hyacinth boy came out. His eyes were wide. Pointing to him, he asked uncertainly, "you, you, that was you just now?"


    The hyacinth nodded and said innocently, "so what if it''s me?"


    Yao Yao also screamed, "you, did you sleep here last night?"


    The hyacinth nodded again, "so what?"


    Zhuo Xi, who is in the center of the storm, has no sign of waking up. Don''t sleep. Xianglan kept his head down and dared not speak. At this time, he dared to come forward and gently pushed Zhuo Xi, "Miss, wake up."


    Zhuo Xi turned over and continued to sleep. She chatted with hyacinth too late last night. She was really sleepy.


    Jing Yuan looks at Zhuo Xi''s sleeping face, and Tieqing steps out of the door.


    The hyacinth also came out. He was going upstairs to change his clothes. How could he wear the same clothes for two days?


    Yao Yao was so angry that she went out with the wind and shouted, "you, you are a big man. How can you spend the night in a girl''s boudoir?"


    The hyacinth looked at her and said coolly, "you are a little girl. How can you wait outside a man''s room all night?"


    Yao Yao stamped her feet and turned to chase Jing Yuan. "Cousin, why don''t you care? What women''s history is simply shameless! "


    Jing Yuan turned around and waited for Yao Yao to slowly approach, cold pursed her lips and said word by word, "Yao Yao, although you are my cousin, Zhuo Xi is the woman I like. You can weigh the weight of the weight. If I hear anything bad from you again, I''ll send someone to send you back to Gelao clan immediately.


    Yao Yao was stunned by his tone. After thinking about it, she said tremblingly, "cousin, you, you can''t do this to me. The patriarch promised to let me out for three months. "


    "That''s just for you to come out and have a long experience, not for you to make trouble here."


    Yao Yao''s temperament was inspired, "how can I make trouble?! The patriarch also promised to let me find the right husband myself. I don''t care. Now I have a crush on the hyacinth childe, and I''m going to marry him! "


    "You like the hyacinth childe. How can you get Zhuo Xi?"


    "Cousin, you didn''t see them last night..."


    "Shut up!" Jing Yuan shouted angrily, "if there are any rumors about them in the Hou''s house, I only ask you!"


    "Cousin!" Yao Yao looked at Jing Yuan''s cold eyes, swallowed her saliva, and dared not say anything again.


    Two months later, the troupe announced that the last performance of Wu huangzhuan would be held on the day of the winter solstice, and there would be no play since then. As soon as the news came out, there was an uproar in the aristocratic family circle. Many of them would invite theatrical troupes to perform at the mansion every three or five times. They had seen it more than five times, but still had more to say. No one knows why the play stopped. According to the notice, the last performance will be held in Fengming restaurant, the largest restaurant in Kyoto. It is a small-scale public performance. After the performance, all the jewelry and clothing used in the play will be auctioned. Those jewelry and clothes are all made of real gold and silver. There are 180 seats in Fengming building. Visitors need to enter with tickets. The ticket price is divided into three levels according to the distance of seats. The lowest ticket price is also 100 bucks, which has nothing to do with ordinary people. At the same time, the notice is only circulated privately, and there are special people to sell tickets.


    At this time, the queen sun Yao in the harem was holding this small leaflet, which was hand-painted in color. When she recognized that the picture above was an elegant image of a queen in full dress, she shouted angrily, "who is so bold! He even incited me not to compete for power and profit, and plot to usurp the throne! "


    "Ha ha ha," Jing Ti strolled in and raised her hand to avoid sun Yao''s salute. "Who in the world can plot to usurp the throne?"


    "Sir, is there a fake painting on this small list?"


    "Yao''er, I came here to invite you to watch the play. Are you interested?"


    "It''s rare for you to have such elegant interest, but the play seems to be about the country. I''m afraid..."


    "Yao''er is worried too much. You don''t know that this play has been popular in gonghou aristocratic family circle for more than two months. If it really involves the government of rivers and mountains, I''m afraid Wu Sheng would have brought someone to check the play team! I''m afraid only you and I have never seen the play. Today is the last performance of the play. It''s a pity not to watch it. "


    "That Huan son......"


    "Give it to the nursing mother. They will take care of it temporarily. You and I will come back in about two hours."


    "Thank you, king. I''ll prepare now."


    When she turned around, she turned back, "Sir, the Empress Dowager has been in low spirits recently. If we can go out of the palace to watch the play together, we must be happy."


    "It means to ask the old man ningyao''s family. By the way, you should dress up more easily. I want to play the merchant master once, ha ha ha. " He laughed and went away.


    In the evening of this day, the sky was dim. Zhuo Xi had been waiting with the people at the door of Fengming building. Jing Yuan, Zi Ran and other characters in the Ming Dynasty have been forbidden by her in the Hou house. Although the Fengming building is called floor, it has only one floor, only one foot higher than ordinary people''s houses. Only simple attics are built on both sides of the hall, barely divided into two thin floors. The whole floor could only be placed with about 20 tables. Zhuo Xi ordered someone to pack the whole audience. The tables were closely connected and arranged in two rows, in front of the first-class and second-class seats. First class seats are the first two rows, with a total of 20 armchairs. The second-class seat is a single round stool, with a total of 40 seats. The rest of the open space and the attics on both sides are filled with long benches, on which four people can sit side by side and number them respectively. Zhuo Xi asked Wu Ming, the guard manager of the Marquis house, to send some reliable people to strengthen the surrounding security, and asked room Rong to call 30 secret guards to protect around Fengming building. This is the first time that such a grand event has been held in Kyoto. Shouldn''t it happen to be watched by thieves?


    At this time, people have come in with tickets to find seats. Most of them came from a family of men and women. Some bought third-class seats and found that the seats were so crowded. They couldn''t help scolding them on the spot. When they saw that general Zhou''s wife and her daughter-in-law were crowded in the second-class seat in front, but there was a long Princess Jing Mo, her son-in-law and daughter sitting on the edge of the first-class seat. Their anger immediately subsided. If it is inconvenient for men and women to sit together, just quietly change their seats. More men saw a group of women around them. They didn''t mean to squeeze in and sit, so they stood by the wall and accompanied them quietly.


    Zhuo Xi is standing at the door to check the ticket. After seeing the general direction of the seat, let the people around him guide him in. At this time, suddenly, several bodyguards came over angrily, pushed away, and Zhuo Xi was about to break in. Zhuo Xi reached out her hand to stop them and said with a smile, "brothers, this place has been packed by the next troupe. If you want to go in, please show your seat ticket."


    A housekeeper like middle-aged man with white face and sharp noise came up in the back, "girl, these boys are too unruly. I''m really sorry. My master has tickets, but these rough people don''t have them. " He took out a stack of tickets. "Look, is it a little accommodation? These boys are standing next to each other."


    "Sir, the leader of the class stipulates that no one can enter unless he has a ticket. It''s mainly because there are too many people inside. It''s impossible to get around without rules. This is also to limit the number of people. You can rest assured that we are all guarding around here, but there are disturbances. We are the first to know that you don''t have to worry too much about safety. "


    "But there are many people here, just in case..." before he finished, he heard the cough coming from behind, immediately shut his mouth, raised his hands, and the big men retreated and left. He stooped to the back, took out an old lady and slowly came forward. Zhuo Xi greeted her, "old lady, please slow down. Looking at your red face, you must be a blessed man. It''s still early at this time. Take your time. Later, sit in your seat and taste our new medlar chrysanthemum tea to dispel liver fire and clear your heart and eyes. "


    The old lady smiled as she walked, "people are always angry and dizzy when they are old. If this medlar chrysanthemum tea really has this effect, we should really have a taste."


    A middle-aged man immediately behind said, "in the little girl''s opinion, what kind of tea should I drink?"


    Zhuo Xi turned her head and said with a smile, "Sir, you are strong. You can drink Pu''er tea properly, which can not only refresh the spleen, but also digest the remaining fat."


    "These tea names are fresh. Look, where''s my wife?"


    "Madam is beautiful and luxurious. Just a cup of rose tea and a little tongue fragrance is enough!"


    The middle-aged man smiled at the gorgeous lady on the side, "look, Yao''er, I''m used to talking."


    "Who said no." Sun Yao also laughed with joy¡° If these tea names are really fresh, they must be tasted. "


    Said this group of people have let Zhuo Xi personally lead to the first row to take a seat. Looking at the expression of the long Princess bowing slightly next to her, and seeing the excited look of several people standing up and sitting down next to her, she was more and more alert. She personally made several tea products she had brought, put white jade tea lamps on the table in front of them, explained them carefully, and then ordered Hao Xianglan to stand aside and go to work. The white middle-aged man was Wuhe. Although he came in with a seat ticket, he didn''t dare to sit on the seat. He just bowed and stood with his body. He quietly tried the tea with a silver needle. When he saw nothing different, he hung his hand and stood aside. But it was too abrupt to stand in a group of sitting people. He had to tell Jingtai to step back, stay next to the wall and closely watch the scene here.


    When the people arrived, the sound of gongs and drums sounded, and the stage in the middle of the lobby officially opened. This play is an inspirational story adapted by Zhuo Xi combined with the deeds of Wu Zetian, but the location is changed to the daughter country. They dare not think of women as emperors, but it is normal if the story takes place in a country where there are only women. There was no challenge to men''s authority, no disobedience to women''s morality, only a weak woman who struggled to survive in the cracks and fought step by step, and finally won the victory. Most of the audience were women, and men were usually accompanied. Women are deeply intoxicated with the excitement and emotion that women dominate their destiny, while most men fantasize about how they will be treated if they are in the daughter country.


    After reading it, sun Yao put down most of her heart. She was nearest, and her exquisite clothes and jewelry were so rich that she couldn''t help but feel an eye opener when she saw all the wealth in the world. She never knew that the original head could be made so exquisite, nor how the Golden Phoenix robe was embroidered with gold thread. Can the gold thread be pulled so thin? There is also the finger sleeve that tilts at the end of the finger, which raises a shining light pointedly between hands and feet. It is simply a supreme honor.


    The story of half an hour was soon finished. The actors came out to make a curtain call, and then stood by the side of the stage in a row.


    Then Zhuo Xi came on stage. She arranged all the people she thought she could use in the key position of the auction. Kou Niang was responsible for the custody and delivery of these jewelry and clothes, Kou andI was responsible for bookkeeping and collection, Wu mother was responsible for the maintenance of order, Wang mother was responsible for the supply of tea and snacks, Xiang Lan became the king''s special waiter, and went to Meng to act as a waiter temporarily, Carrying a teapot, I shuttle back and forth in front of the table to add tea to everyone. The room in the dark is responsible for the security of the whole audience.


    The most critical link is about to begin.


    Zhuo Xi wanted to have a microphone in her hand so that she didn''t have to shout at the top of her voice¡° Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, this drama is purely fictional. I have the right to give it to all of you after dinner. Although this performance is over, its beauty in our hearts will never end. You said, "right?"


    The crowd did not adapt to the typhoon at all, and only a few slight voices answered "yes!"


    "Answer loudly, you say, are they performing well?"


    The voice began to louder, "OK!"


    "Ladies and ladies! I can''t hear the most real call from your heart. Tell me again, is this play good? "


    "Good looking!" Almost everyone shouted, especially the ladies.


    "Its beauty depends on the artistic conception and plot, and more on these gorgeous clothes and jewelry. Now, you have the opportunity to take one or several of them home. Do you want to?"


    The women shouted frantically "yes!"

 Chapter 43

    Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction and pressed her hand, "this is an unprecedented auction. Do you know what an auction is? "


    There was no answer in the field.


    "Yes," she picked up the small wooden hammer in her hand and knocked it heavily on a small table that had been moved up in front of her. On the table, there was a piece of music they used for soundtrack, making a dull metal sound, "shoot and sell!". She was afraid that it was too big, there were too many people, and there was no public address equipment. The people behind her couldn''t hear her tapping on the table, so she had to take a þ‡ to amplify the knocking sound. Fortunately, it was tiled on the table without much noise.


    She further explained, "everything here starts at a base price. Everyone can bid. Please raise your seat ticket when bidding. There is a number on the ticket for our records. If someone offers the highest price and no one increases the price, I count three times and knock on this þ‡ to indicate a transaction. The photographer can hand in the money and deliver the goods on the spot, or report his name and address. Tomorrow, I''ll go to your house and pay for the goods. "


    There were eight actors standing on the stage, and some waitresses were holding the costumes that the actors changed when they changed roles. The auction starts with the last female official dress.


    "A seven grade civil service uniform, four feet one inch long and two feet two minutes wide, including a hat, made of hemp brocade, with a base price of 30 yuan." Perhaps at the beginning, everyone felt fresh. Perhaps the last female official dress could not be on the table. There was no bid for this dress. Zhuo Xi regretted to ask the actors to go back to the backstage and change their clothes.


    "Ma brocade inlaid with a topaz belt. The hook belt is jade. It is two feet long and two inches wide. The base price starts at 60 yuan." One after another, ladies shyly raised their tickets and whispered their bids. Zhuo Xi couldn''t hear clearly for several times, so she shouted, "in order to avoid madam and miss wasting too much time, if there is no quotation, the price will be increased by ten yuan per time. Do you have any opinions?"


    The move was unanimously approved by everyone. So the belt was taken away by the wife of a petty official at the price of 90 yuan. Everyone knows that although this hook jade belt is an ornament for female officials, it can only be worn by her husband. Who dares to buy those girls who are still veiled before they leave the cabinet?


    When sun Yao saw Jing Tui looking at the auction with great interest, he knew that he didn''t take these women''s official clothes to heart. Several companies in the back saw that the people in front didn''t stop the auction of the women''s official clothes. They also knew that they were just playthings, and they weren''t really the current official clothes. Therefore, with the increase of clothing accessories and the rise of female official level, the clothing price has gradually increased, and more and more people are auctioning. Who still remembers who bought what? Even though many dress crowns were photographed away by masked girls, no one looked at them anymore, and no one remembered.


    Wu Zetian''s clothes and jewelry from her maiden age to her accession to the throne are the real ones.


    "This is the dress she wore when she was a talented person. It is three feet and two minutes long, one foot and five minutes wide, and one foot and nine minutes long. It is made of Tencel. The color is orange, bright and lively. The reserve price is 100 bucks. " As soon as the reserve price came out, everyone was in an uproar. A hundred bucks was enough for a family of five ordinary people to live for a year. But soon someone raised the sign, "110", "120", "130"... The dress was bright in color, luxurious and generous. It was more than enough to attend the royal banquet. Madam and miss competed to take pictures and shouted until 230,


    Just photographed by a lady in the second class seat. None of Zhuo Xi''s seats recognized her. Naturally, she didn''t know her identity. However, if she looked through the seat sales records registered by the conductor afterwards, it was not difficult to find out her identity, but she was always free and easy. She didn''t take advantage of this opportunity to make friends with dignitaries, so she never took a serious look at the register.


    "This is the Jin Bu Yao worn by Wu CAI. It is three inches long and made of pure gold. The gold weighs three hundred and twenty-one dollars. The starting base price is three hundred dollars."


    The crowd was in an uproar again, but this time it was the men, ladies and ladies who didn''t feel much. They often dealt with jewelry, but they knew that the reserve price of pure gold jewelry was not high, especially after the maid holding the tray swayed in front of everyone in the audience with Jin Bu, they all made a surprised tut. So when the shooting started, dozens of cards were raised, and someone shouted "five hundred dollars". In an instant, most of the tickets fell down, leaving only three sides, and one shouted, "five hundred and fifty dollars."


    The other two sides fell down and suddenly held up, "six hundred dollars."


    "Six hundred and fifty."


    "Seven hundred dollars."


    There was no sound, "the first sound of 700 yuan, the second sound of 700 yuan, and the third sound of 700 yuan." With a slap, Zhuo Xi knocked on the copper coin, "700 yuan is a deal. Congratulations to the childe. He won the gold step by step. If this gift is given to a beautiful woman, she will be able to hold the beauty back. Zhuo Xi congratulates you on getting what you want as soon as possible. " Everyone laughed. The young childe blushed with shame, but he was obviously right in his mind and just bowed his head.


    "Wu Zhaoyi has a pair of jade bracelets. Jade is the king of jade. It can not only improve beauty, but also prolong life. People have raised jade for three years and jade has raised people for a lifetime. All of you here are experts in this field. I don''t say much. This piece starts from 600. " At this time, no one was surprised. Emerald is rare, and such transparent emerald is even more rare. The ladies and ladies have shot one after another. Sun Yao glanced at the Crown Princess sitting on the right side. She really understood it. She photographed 1100 coins all the way before she took it.


    "The following one is a set of Wu Zhaoyi''s head, including a ruby forehead ornament, a pick heart, a top hairpin, a distraction hairpin and two hairpins, two sideburns and two side hairpins, a total of seven pieces, including 722 coins of pure gold. The ruby is seven minutes long and five minutes wide. The starting price is 800. " As soon as this thing comes out, which lady can restrain it? The lady wants to take it back to add makeup to her daughter, not to mention the young lady who hasn''t left the cabinet. It''s also an enjoyment to take such a treasure back and look at it every day. The bidding price climbed all the way to 1800. The eldest princess''s son-in-law Luo Qiong''s face was like a crown jade and her eyes were like ink stone. She bit the bid of Mrs. Zhou without saying a word. She always added ten dollars to Mrs. Zhou''s bid. Finally, Mrs. Zhou lost in his face like a drowning water and was photographed by Luo Qiong at a high price of 2510. The long princess was smiling, and the old lady in the middle looked at the two with a smile.


    "The next one is the finger protector worn by Empress Wu. There are six pieces in total. A total of 28 gemstones are inlaid with pure gold. The gold weighs 228 cents and the reserve price starts from 200 yuan." Although the reserve price is low, it is not cost-effective, and people have not seen this kind of armor at that time. It is difficult to be happy at once. On the contrary, there are fewer photographers, and they are photographed for 580 yuan by Princess Luo Han, the daughter of the eldest princess.


    "Finally, it is the Dragon Robe crown when Emperor Wu ascended the throne and the Phoenix robe crown when she was queen."


    The two actors came on stage and turned around. After a silence, all the women screamed out of control.


    "It''s hard for one person to play two roles, so I specially invited this Fengxin girl to play Empress Wu temporarily."


    The object of their screams is not the Dragon Robe and Phoenix crown, but the model who temporarily acts as Empress Wu. He was dressed in a red phoenix robe and wore a Xiakou on his head. His skin was like coagulated fat and his eyes were like dark jade. As soon as he raised his eyes, his two traces of autumn water became a peerless beauty. Although he just stood there with an expressionless face, he had made all the beauties in the world lose color.


    Sun Yao''s interest that had just surged slowly faded without trace. She looked sideways at the king, but she screamed bad when she saw Jing ti''s iron blue face.


    "The Dragon Robe is nine feet and three minutes long and two feet and three minutes wide. It is embroidered with a golden dragon and shares nine liang of gold thread; The crown is made of 25 Liang pure gold, with 10 pearl diaries, each with eight South China Sea pearls. "


    As she explained word by word, the audience, both men and women, slowly calmed down, some with doubts and some with fear.


    As if she ignored it, she continued, "the Phoenix robe is five feet and five minutes long and one foot and nine minutes wide. It is embroidered with a golden phoenix flying nine days. The silk thread used is five or two dollars. The Phoenix crown is also made of twenty-two pure gold. The style is a hundred birds facing the Phoenix. A total of 99 small beads fall at the tail, and the diameter of one Nanhai pearl in the middle is one inch."


    "The reserve price of these four treasures is..."


    Everyone held their breath. One man stood up and shouted, "bold! Who dares to privately make dragon robes and Phoenix crowns and even auction them here! Don''t you want to die? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "dare you ask your name?"


    "I will not change my name. I will not change my surname. My surname is Wu and my name is Meng."


    "Young master Wu, why do you say that you make dragon robes and Phoenix crowns privately? What are the consequences? "


    "According to the law, no one except the king and queen can make dragon robes and crowns privately. All nine families will be punished for violating them!"


    The next voice floated out, "girl, you''d better not shoot."


    She smiled and chanted, "it''s today''s auction. Naturally, we have to take it out and shoot it. It depends on whether anyone dares to bid. " She paused and ignored Wu Meng''s sharp eyes. "These four treasures were auctioned together and refused to unpack. The reserve price of this piece is - priceless. "


    People were relieved. Wu Meng said, "since it''s priceless, how can I auction it?"


    "If someone can offer a priceless price, he can get it."


    "What is priceless price?"


    "There are so many priceless things in the world. It depends on whether someone is willing or unwilling."


    "Even if someone takes out priceless things and barters them, the Dragon Robe and Phoenix crown are beyond the system. Who dares to buy and who dares to use?" Wu Meng said again.


    "Ha ha, young master, why do you have to spend people in the world with your own heart? The world is so big that there are people who dare to buy it and those who dare to use it. " Zhuo Xi said loudly.


    "What a person who dares to buy and use." Jing Ti, sitting in the middle of the first row, clapped his hands and made a loud voice. He asked, "girl, since childe Wu has such concerns about exceeding the system, why don''t you tell me how the Dragon Robe and Phoenix crown are made? What moment has it exceeded? "


    "Yes, that''s a good question. What is overstepping? You can surpass it if you have a system. The Dragon Robe I wore on the king was a five clawed golden dragon, with twelve diaries and nine beads; The Queen''s Phoenix robe should be Nine Tailed Golden Phoenix with fire beads in her mouth; There are hundreds of birds in the Phoenix crown and hundreds of beads in the tail. In our costumes, the dragon has three claws and eight beads; The Phoenix robe is a golden phoenix with eight tails and no beads in its mouth; The Phoenix crown is one less tail, which is actually 99 birds facing the Phoenix. In this way, this auction can only be said to be like a dragon rather than a dragon, like a phoenix rather than a Phoenix. May I ask you, ladies and gentlemen, is the little girl out of control? "


    The crowd breathed another sigh of relief.


    "What a dragon, not a dragon, like a Phoenix, not a Phoenix." "Why is there no price?"


    "It''s priceless in my little girl''s heart. Sir, do you have anything priceless to exchange? "


    Jingtai asked, and everyone who knew or didn''t know dared not speak again. The whole audience was silent, "there are many priceless things in the world. Since they are priceless, it''s difficult to convince the public to judge which is big or small only by the girl''s heart?"


    "Hehe, you''re interesting. The auction is mine. It''s priceless and can only be exchanged. If you have priceless treasures, you can give your name. If there is nothing in my mind, why not change it? "


    "Ha ha ha," Jing Tai laughed loudly and raised his seat card, "a girl will make a price. Tomorrow, please go to a residence to judge whether the things offered are priceless, and then make a decision. If anyone else wants to bid, you can come together tomorrow and ask the girl to judge. "


    The stage is quiet. No one dares to speak or move. Zhuo Xi looked around for a week and didn''t take a picture of xiaohammer. She arched her hand and said, "thank you, sir. I''m sure the little girl will visit tomorrow."


    Then she said to the audience, "this auction is over. I would like to express my deep gratitude to all adults, ladies and ladies again. Although the girls are as like as two peas, the little girl promised that no second identical objects will appear in the world. If so, they will be imitation products. If you have a ticket in hand, please move to this side. The silver goods are paid or leave your name and address so that we can deliver it to the door. "


    When she saw that someone in the audience had moved around, she said, "in addition, the little girl prepared a dress show for everyone. If you are interested, you can stay and watch one or two. If you are not interested, you can leave quietly. " She clapped her hands and the music began. The two actors changed into a set of red clothes, ruby head, earrings and red agate bracelets. They were all authentic women''s clothes. They turned out from the screen behind, elegant and noble.


    Originally, some ladies were about to get up and go back to their house. Unconsciously, they were attracted by the exquisite clothes on the stage and sat down again.


    Then two actors dressed in yellow clothes with Topaz head and face walked out with Topaz inlaid gold bracelet. The back is light blue and light pink clothes and corresponding matching jewelry, all of which are exquisite, noble and generous. Finally, Fengxin walked out in a lavender robe. A complete set of Amethyst head, hand string and lavender crystal pendant hanging on the snow-white chest attracted the attention of the whole audience and completely ignored his flat chest and cold eyes. But Wuhe couldn''t help standing straight and squatting quietly moved behind Jing Tui.


    There has been a crazy atmosphere in the venue. The shouts of "Fengxin girl, Fengxin girl" are higher and higher. Seeing that the time was ripe, Zhuo Xi pressed his hands and calmed the crazy shouts in the venue and the passionate music in the background, "ladies and gentlemen, young women are not talented. They designed several sets of clothes and jewelry styles, all of which were presented in the newly built Jinyuman building behind Fengming building. The clothes are exquisite. They are a good gift for people and a good product for themselves, There should be all these styles on the stage. If you are interested, please enter the Jinyuman building from the corridor on your left. Guests who buy tonight can enjoy a 10% discount. If you are not interested, please go out on your right. Today''s auction is over, thank you! "


    The ladies and ladies rushed up to the left corridor with the waiting maids outside the door. At this time, they found that the golden building was shining behind the golden building.

 Chapter 44

    "Ha ha," the old lady laughed happily, "this girl is interesting. She is really a wonderful person. This play is good, good! " Jing Tai helped her up. "Mother, are you happy today?" Sun Yao also quickly picked her up from the other side.


    "My son, I''ve never opened my eyes like this in decades. I tell you quietly, "she waved. The king and queen approached her and listened to her," I also want to raise a card. I''m afraid that you young people will laugh, and I''m afraid that the girls below will laugh. I haven''t seen anything and I don''t want these vulgar things, ha ha ha. "


    The eldest princess''s family came over, "mother, look, daughter, look, this is not a vulgar thing." She took the box containing six armor from her daughter Luo Han, opened it and put it into the old lady''s hand, "this armor is a new thing. Although the price is not high, it is much rarer than that set of head. The daughter knows that you disdain to wear the head, so she asks han''er to take this and give it to your old man to play a fresh one. "


    The old lady put the armor on her fingers one by one and stretched out her hand. Sure enough, her fingers immediately looked slender and elegant. The more she looked, the more she liked it. "It''s really fresh."


    Sun Yao also said with a smile, "as soon as you wear this armor, you look like the Bodhisattva on the painting. You are kind-hearted, pick flowers with your hands and help all sentient beings."


    The old lady pinched her thumb and index finger without armor and made a gesture of picking flowers. Jing Tai was surprised, "it''s very similar indeed. Ha ha. "


    There are several women who have known the old lady for a long time. They are waiting for a chance to see the ceremony. When they see this scene, they all come around to give a big ceremony. Jing Tui coughed to stop them. They said, "we dare to call you old sister, who is kind-hearted. Hearing of the flood this year, my sister also donated the Ci''an palace to relieve the victims. Now, once this armor is worn, it seems that the old sister is like the Bodhisattva. She is sad and willing to be great and deep and find a voice to save the suffering. "


    The crowd agreed. The flattery made the old lady laugh, wave her hand and say, "where, where."


    Seeing that the crown princess came back with the box, sun Yao also took it and opened it and held it in front of the old lady, "mother, please don''t dislike being a daughter-in-law. The gold and silver objects are mostly vulgar. When my daughter-in-law sees that the Jasper is incomparably transparent, she is most worthy of your Buddha''s kindness. "


    The old lady was already laughing, "ha ha, you are all good daughters, good daughters in law!"


    "Blessed is the old sister, a good son and wife, a good daughter and son-in-law. Your blessing and future generations."


    Zhuo Xi can''t listen any more. If these people flatter and flatter again, it is estimated that the title of "old Buddha" will be born. She had sent Xianglan to guide the ladies to go shopping next door. She stepped forward and said, "old lady, do you have a good taste of medlar chrysanthemum tea?"


    "The tea tastes elegant and has a lingering fragrance in the mouth. It''s very good, very good."


    "You like it. I have a bag here. I hope you don''t dislike it. Take it back and taste it slowly."


    "OK, OK." The old lady smiled and blossomed. Other ladies nearby also asked, "what good tea?"


    Zhuo Xi pointed to the next corridor, "you can go to jinyuxuan. All guests who buy clothes tonight will have good tea. If you go late, the good things will be picked up first. " All the others in the hall are gone, and only these people are still joking.


    As soon as he said this, the ladies around looked at the empty lobby and got anxious to see the old lady''s look. The old lady said with a smile, "you''ve already said hello. Help yourself. When I don''t get it, you blame me for missing your good deeds. " So that the ladies said they didn''t dare to tunnel.


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh, bowed her hands and said, "the tea of my Lord and madam will be sent to your house tomorrow. But please give me a keepsake. I''m afraid I can''t enter your house. "


    Jing Tai suspected that she had seen through her identity. "Do you know where to find me?"


    "I have great momentum, the old lady is very noble, and the lady is gorgeous. Zhuo Xi knew that she would go to the most extraordinary place to find her master. The little girl also believes that in this world, only the Lord can afford this priceless thing, and only the Lord and his wife can use these four kinds of auction. " She bent over and took the tray containing the four treasures from qumeng''s hand.


    "However, none of these four items can meet the specifications." The prince Fei Qi said. Although she wanted to see the so-called jinyuxuan, the big people hadn''t left, and she didn''t dare to act rashly.


    "With the Lord''s permission, they will meet the specifications tomorrow."


    "Hahaha," Jing Tai laughed, "she is a transparent woman, five rivers. Give her a gold medal and let her enter the Palace tomorrow."


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief when he watched Jing Ti and his party go away, and Jing Yuan and Jian Rong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they walk out of the Fengming building safely, they have completed the highest security task.


    Jian Yi flew over and knelt in the dark, "master, all the killers sent by the prince have been wiped out."


    Jing Yuan nodded and gave a "hum". The son on one side said strangely, "is it the prince again? Isn''t his goal always the Lord you? Why should we deal with the king this time? "


    Jing Yuan said, "isn''t it a plan to kill two birds with one stone to deal with the king in my field?"


    Son ran thought carefully and suddenly realized.


    "Then master, why don''t you take your plan?"


    Jing Yuan didn''t answer, but carefully ordered Jian Yi, "go and clean the head and tail dishes. Just let you go to the lily removed in front of the window and put it back." Jianyi promised to go.


    Zi Ran asked eagerly, "master, are you really not going to see Miss Zhuo Xi?"


    He looked back at Zhuo Xi, who was busy in the golden and jade building, and a nameless feeling filled his heart. Since he saw the wind in her room that morning, he never took the initiative to appear in front of her again. He knew that he could know everything between them in an instant, but he didn''t know what he was afraid of. Every morning, when he looks forward to asking his pride, he can''t come out first. However, there was nothing. As usual, she said hello to what he wanted, arranged the meals of the day and the daily schedule, and then went out to do her own business. It seemed to her that nothing had happened.


    But he knew from the bottom of his heart that sometimes he didn''t care, he just didn''t ask. This kind of indifference tortured him from time to time; This kind of understanding is more like a small saw twisting his heart and liver from time to time. Sometimes he deliberately misses her meal, or a vegetable, or a plate of fruit, or a bowl of soup. He hoped that his stiffness, which had not happened for a long time, would happen again, and then she would visit him like the first day, blinking her big black eyes, looking down at him from top to bottom, speaking quickly and quickly, "the Marquis wants to drink water, but he can''t drink water. He''s afraid to let go if he drinks too much, right?" If so, he asked her to guess why he was unhappy these days?


    Zi Ran looked at his master, looked at Miss Zhuo Xi''s back, and left with a long sigh. He didn''t know what had happened. He asked Jianrong. Jianrong''s mouth was tighter than ever this time. He just didn''t say how to ask, how to fight and how to cheat.


    But why did he always think the woman who played the queen looked very familiar? Reasonably speaking, he should never forget such a beautiful woman. Why should he die and just can''t remember who she is?

 Chapter 45

    Jing Yuan didn''t know that at the next day''s meeting, Jing Qi''s opening was a great fire.


    "Cao Jia, can you tell me how much money was raised for the flood in the three places of Puzhou that day?"


    "Sir, the Treasury allocated 30000 yuan for flood control for the first time, and then 20000 yuan for disaster relief; Later, initiated by the Queen''s mother, the inner palace raised a total of 3600 yuan, and the officials and nobles donated more than 9800 yuan, all for disaster relief. "


    "How many people are there?" This remark surprised everyone.


    "This..." Cao Gu gave a few words and said, "I don''t want to cool the dynasty. There are more than 1900 officials above grade 9 in Beijing, 310 in Beijing and 169 officials above grade 5 in Beijing. Their relatives and family members do not know how many. "


    "Three hundred and ten officials, relatives and family members, donated a total of 9800 yuan! But I saw with my own eyes last night that someone spent 300 yuan on a jade belt! " He''s furious¡° I don''t know. I''m not a cool official. How rich is it? "


    Only then did all the officials understand that where did the king''s anger come from? He couldn''t help but secretly hate his mother-in-law at home. What wealth did he show at the auction if he had nothing to do?!


    The official whose mother-in-law bought the jade belt was facing up. When she heard that her family was named, she fell to the ground in a cold sweat. "I don''t know that I Jing lost my family here yesterday, but she came back to tell me that she bought it with the dowry money brought by her mother''s family. I have no reason to ask for a dowry from my Jing when I donate money, so I only donated the monthly salary of my lower official in January. "


    The important Minister of the Manchu Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief. This explanation was passable. The king must have no words to argue. How can a husband''s official donate money to his wife''s dowry?


    Jing Tai sneered, "in this way, could it be that I donated my monthly salary to the officials last month and could only live on my wife''s dowry? It''s really hard for you! "


    The people below dare not say a word. The prince came out to save the scene. He also heard the princess say what happened yesterday. He knew that the jewelry bought by her Princess was filial to the empress dowager, and there was no pressure at all. "Sir, fortunately, the floods in the three places of Puzhou have been relieved, and the people have been able to settle and rebuild. I believe that if you have another chance in the future, you will live up to your high expectations."


    All the people knelt down and said in unison, "you must live up to your high expectations."


    "Hum!" Jing Tai snorted, which can be regarded as exposing the matter.


    Gongsun Li quickly stepped out of the line and changed the topic. "I''m sorry, Yu Po in the southwest sent an urgent report. Zisang state in the South has frequently harassed Wucheng recently, which seems to have changed. Yu Po led 100000 soldiers to guard the border. For five years, Zisang state has been in peace with our border city. I''m afraid this action may be covered up. I don''t know what it really wants? "


    Cao Gu sneered, "hundreds of thousands of soldiers are waiting for the whole war. I''m sorry that Zisang small country doesn''t dare to act rashly. Kuang Zisang is a small country whose ancestors share the same surname as our royal family and have been friendly to each other for decades. If war is like fighting in a room, isn''t it unjust? "


    Gongsun Li: "this moment is also another moment. Can we talk about military affairs? Yu Po just noticed that there were differences and reported them according to the rules. We should study them carefully. It''s best to have nothing in the southwest, but if there is a sudden military situation, I''m afraid I''m not prepared properly. " If the garrison general does not report, he will be charged with failing to report in case the war is triggered.


    All the ministers were silent.


    Jing Jie asked Jing Yuan, who was silent, "six younger brothers, Zisang country is closest to your fief Liangzhou and harasses your sergeant. Have you received any news before?"


    Jing Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has not returned to the fief for five years. Five years ago, he was ordered to have no private trust in the minister. All military affairs should be reported to the king for handling. Ministers dare not intrude on behalf of blisters. Liangzhou ordered Qi Peng to report the tax and tax on the official administration every year, and copy it with the minister. What the minister knows is no different from you. "


    Xichi came forward and said, "Mr. Wang, speaking of Zisang, I heard an interesting story about Zisang in the market restaurant the day before yesterday. I don''t know if it should be said or not?"


    Discussing the military situation is too serious. Everyone looks forward to looking at him.


    Jing Tai said, "whenever there is anything about Zisang country, Qing people can speak freely."


    Old Xichi blushed and said, "the day before yesterday, the minister had a quarrel with his old wife. He went to the wine shop to drink muggy wine. I heard an interesting story from a business trip to the southwest about 16 years ago. There was a maid in the palace of Jing, the leader of Zisang state, who was pregnant without a husband 40 years ago. She was confined in the palace until she was pregnant for more than 40 years. If an old woman is frightened, she will repay the queen; The queen Jiang''s thought was unknown, so she refused to accept it and abandoned it in the ditch river. Jing Li is very angry. He is sending people around to look for the baby girl. He wants to see people alive and dead. Some people get and offer 300 pieces of cloth and silk each. Some people who don''t report their adoption and are exposed by their neighbors have their whole family beheaded. "


    Gongsun rich said, "how can newborns be identified? If someone takes a dead baby at will to cheat reward, isn''t it easy? "


    "I heard that this woman was born with Phoenix Color between her eyebrows. The pattern has been painted by the old woman of more than 50 that year. Wait for comparison. How dare anyone pretend to be a fool?"


    Xichi continued, "sixteen years from the king''s search for people have yielded no results. Last month, someone saw a stunning beauty on the Bank of Sishui river. A phoenix color on the forehead was extremely beautiful, which provoked Wang to send people to search everywhere. "


    Gongsun Li said, "Sishui is crossing the territory of Zisang and Liangzhou. Is it the matter that Yupo said about the change of Zisang?"


    Xichi said, "it''s too strange. It''s common to hear about the humanity of business travel. Just listen to it for the time being. It can''t be done accurately. But there are changes in the military and state affairs, so we have to guard against them. "


    Le Ke said, "Xichi SIKO is right. The minister is in charge of military clothes and equipment. The southwest side has been rationing military supplies according to the regulations five years ago. Now, Sergeant Wuliang can develop refined iron to make weapons. How do you know Zisang has no new weapons? I think it''s impossible to guard against it. We should be cautious. Moreover, all the refined iron weapons previously raised are transported to the northwest. If each garrison military region can be properly deployed, the border defense capacity can be greatly improved. "


    He Qian, who is now in charge of mine smelting and the identification and employment of craftsmen, said, "now, judging from the output of 300 people working day and night in cangcuishan mine, only 5000 arrows, 3000 halberds, 3000 Maotou and 500 horizontal knives can be produced every month. This is the limit of mine operation. It will take at least a year to equip 100000 troops. "


    Jingtui said, "he Qian, since neifu has mastered the smelting technology, why not open more mines and build more smelting plants? Previously, I heard that baikou iron mine is rich in output, and there are also a large number of baikou iron ore in several copper mines previously mined. "


    He Qian said with a wry smile, "Weichen has long been smelted in the previously mined Caixian and Daqing mines. Somehow, he just can''t create fine iron with the same hardness."


    No one answered at the moment.


    It''s better to go to Guang''an for a long time than to go to Guang''an for a long time. He understands that it''s better to go to Guang''an for a long time. As for refined iron, the Marquis of Guang''an can look for mines in and around Liangzhou city. If there are minerals, he can build a factory to forge weapons locally, which will be supervised by the internal government, and there will be no long-distance transportation time. Guang''an Hou, would you like to? "


    Guang''an Hou hesitated and said, "minister, lead the purpose."


    The prince replied with an arch hand, "father, it''s very appropriate for the Marquis of Guang''an to return to the fief and sit in Liangzhou. Jing Hua has never been involved in military affairs. It would also be a kind of experience if she could study in detail with her sixth uncle. "


    Jing Ti nodded when he heard the speech. "What the prince said is very true. Let Hua''er go to Liangzhou together. At this time, it has been closed in recent years. After Shangyuan Festival, you can start. "


    Jing Yuan had to promise.


    At the end of the meeting, the prince was left alone. No one knew what the father and son had talked about. No one knows that when the prince goes out, he is extremely confused.


    Soon after Jing Yuan returned to the mansion, he saw Zhuo Xi appear in linyue pavilion with a serious black eye.


    Jing Yuan''s heart jumped for a moment, and the opportunity of the night may be coming.


    He pressed down his excitement and asked coldly, "what''s the matter with your eyes?"


    Zi Ran frowned. Who can''t hear such an obvious tone of disaster and joy? The question is, what are you happy about, girl with dark circles under her eyes?


    Sure enough, Zhuo Xi said unhappily, "thank you for your concern. Last night, the sales volume of Jinyuman building was too large. I was too excited to sleep on the gold. "


    Zi Ran stumbled. When she came back these days, she saw her mysteriously busy going in and out. The Marquis didn''t ask. He was embarrassed to ask directly, but indirectly learned from Xianglan about the preparation of Jinyuman building and the preparation of last night''s auction. Sure enough, if you don''t sing, you will become a blockbuster. Thinking of the auction last night, he immediately talked about it, "Miss Zhuo Xi, the auction last night was wonderful."


    Zhuo Xi immediately raised her apricot eyebrows, "what?! Did you go too? I told you not to get involved? "


    Zi Ran touched his nose and looked at the master. The latter obviously wanted him to carry the black pot. His heart was horizontal. "I heard that the security guard there was short of staff, so I begged him to take me."


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "even if you are short of hands, how many adults can you hold?"


    Zi Ran refused, "fortunately, we went last night. You don''t know, at least three groups, a total of no less than 60 people in black attacked your field. Don''t you know? "


    "Really?" Zhuo Xi was surprised and looked at Jing Yuan, "coming for you?"


    Jing Yuan''s excitement was cold, and his tone became cool, "is it for you? You, a little Marquis, deserve to send more than 60 dead men? "


    Zhuo Xi found that he was very wrong today. After thinking about it, she didn''t seem to have done anything wrong recently. She pondered, "I don''t seem to have exposed my identity. How did the other party come to you?"


    "How many eyes are there inside and outside the Hou''s house. Is such a big thing really unnoticed? The construction of Jinyuman building lasted one month and three days. How did the craftsmen in the house take turns to build it, and how did the materials be transported in and out of Fengming building? In addition, all the gold and silver you extracted from the warehouse are stamped with the official seal of the marquis. The alchemy workshop you sent to is the Queen''s property. One by one, you can find out by any spy. Besides, when you served tea to the empress dowager, the king and the queen, you deliberately used the set of white jade lanterns. Isn''t it to show your relationship with Ben Hou? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and replaced his cold tea with a new one. Jing Yuan pressed her hand and said to Zi Ran, "Zi Ran, the tea is cold. Go and cook a new pot." Zi Ran knew that they had something to say, and Wen Yan stepped down.


    Jing Yuan sighed, "I want to hide you behind me, but I don''t know how a pearl can be cast secretly? Now the gate of the palace is open to you. Come on, what do you want? "


    Zhuo Xi saw that he was rarely sad and had a look of thin anger. His heart missed a beat, but he still said clearly, "what I want has not changed. What I want is freedom."


    Jing Yuan sneered, "freedom without the command of parents and the pressure of kingship? You have no father or mother, but you are willing to be the sixth miss of the Wu house; You could have been far from the throne, but you were willing to run to the palace gate. This is what you call freedom? "


    Zhuo Xi hesitated, "the name Wu AI just provides me with a legal identity so that I won''t die under the sword. Close to the throne, I just want to get a legal merchant identity. "


    "Can''t I give you a legal merchant identity?" Jing Yuan felt his heart cooling slowly.

 Chapter 46

    "Of course you can, but I don''t want to just borrow the name of the marquis. I want to build a business empire according to my own ideas, so I can''t let the king suspect that the Marquis wants to collect money. I don''t want this to cause a rift between you and the king again. Your relationship has just been repaired. There is no need to lose your peace for a small matter. "


    "Even if you build a business empire in your own name, do you think it has nothing to do with the marquis in their eyes?"


    "Nature is relevant. But don''t forget, marquis, there are many people who want to make money, among them the most are the king and the queen. If my business empire is jointly invested by the queen and the Marquis, I only own the dry shares. All operations and profits are carried out under the eyes of the queen. The Marquis thinks that the queen will give up this great opportunity to make money? "


    Jing Yuan looked at her deeply and couldn''t help leaning forward. "Can benhou think that you do these things partly for benhou?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded calmly, "Lord, we promised to be open to each other. I really hope that the Marquis can really turn fighting into friendship with the king. Although the royal family has no family, I still hope you don''t lose your only sibling, and I don''t want the people I follow to become cold-blooded animals that kill family siblings. "


    "You have only eight months left to follow." A quarter of the year has passed quickly.


    "No, maybe not eight months. Next March, or we''ll say goodbye. "


    Jing Yuan breathed quickly. "Why next March?"


    "If you ask, I won''t hide it from you. Next March, the day Miss Wang enters the door will be when I leave. "


    "Why did you break your promise when you agreed to a one-year period?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "Your Highness is forgetful. You broke your promise first."


    The proposal was still in my ears that day. Instantly shattered by reality. She didn''t know how she reacted when Xianglan told her the news that day. She only knew that her only thought was to leave.


    Jing Yuan also had a smile on his face, "you''re jealous."


    Zhuo Xi had already found a chair to sit down, so she held her cheek with one hand and thought like, "what''s the feeling of being jealous?"


    "Sour, my chest is blocked with a breath. I can''t spit it out. I can''t swallow it. It''s uncomfortable?"


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes brightened, "Hou ye once had this experience?"


    "It''s better than that. The tone in Ben Hou''s chest burned for three days. He wanted to peel it, remove its bones and swallow it raw into his stomach." Jing Yuan said gnashing his teeth.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "who is so short of eyes that he annoyed the Marquis?"


    "Feng Xin!"


    She wondered, "why?" Aren''t they close friends for many years?


    Jing Yuan closed his eyes, closed his lips, took a deep breath and decided to ask, "what''s the relationship between you and him?"


    "Me and her? Are you a good friend now? " I think so? Are you a best friend when you sleep in the same bed?


    "You... That day, I saw him from your room..." Jing Yuan became a little hesitant.


    Zhuo Xi instantly figured out the joints and asked in surprise, "don''t you know she...?"


    "What did he say?" Jing Yuan is inexplicable.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help selling, "then tell me first, what''s the relationship between you and her?"


    "He is actually my younger martial brother. I was taught by old man Mu Qiu when I was young. He was the closing disciple of old man Mu Qiu two years before he became a hermit in the forest. He brought me to practice arts with me for two years and then left. Five years ago, master and his old man died. Younger martial brother lived alone in the mountain. Bored, he came to find me. It was only then that I knew that the younger martial brother had learned medicine, and then he asked for medicine for me. "


    "Together, you have lived together for six or seven years. You didn''t find her different from normal men?"


    Jing Yuan thought in confusion. Before he made a sound, he asked in a voice, "what''s the difference between him?"


    It was Jing Hua who came in with great strides.


    Zhuo Xi thought, some words are not so convenient when outsiders are present. Perhaps hyacinth didn''t like others to know his little secret, so he asked, "isn''t he particularly beautiful?"


    "Hahaha, that''s true." Jing Hua lifted her clothes and sat at the table.


    "Hua''er, why are you free today?"


    "Uncle Liu, I''ve been banned for three months. Now the ban has been lifted. I''m going to walk around. It''s said that uncle Liu has good tea here. Hua''er came to beg for a cup of tea. Will uncle Liu not be unwelcome? "


    "Where? I haven''t thanked you for your outspoken words at the great court meeting that day. You have borne a bad name for the Marquis''s affairs, and you are punished and forbidden. I will keep it in mind. "


    "Uncle Liu, my nephew just did what he should do as a minister and son. He is reasonable and emotional. My nephew can''t see anyone wronged."


    "So you were wronged yourself. You are a good boy. Now, the prince suggests that the king send you to Liangzhou. Do you know his intention? "


    "Big brother wants me to go out and practice so that I can help him in the future."


    Jing Yuan looked at him for a long time and sighed, "Hua Er, Liangzhou is my fief. Do you know why I have never set foot in five years?"


    "Uncle Liu, I''ve always been curious. Why don''t you even want to talk to the 100000 garrison?"


    "Five years ago, I regained Liangzhou from the state of tan. When the city was completely slaughtered, I heard that my mother was seriously ill. I hurried for days, but I didn''t even see my mother''s last side. Although my father gave me Liangzhou city as a fief and sealed the town general, I always felt that Liangzhou was my unknown land. Yu Po actually wrote to me every year. The last time, four months ago, he even sent me some Liangzhou soil to let me smell the aroma of the soil. Then my father died. I don''t want to get close to it, I don''t want to get close to it, and I don''t want to know the news about it. I always feel that once I set foot on the territory of Liangzhou, the important people around me will encounter accidents. "


    "Uncle Liu, you are a man who values love and righteousness. I know that. I also know a little about you and brother Wang. Brother asked me to go with you. Naturally, he had his plan, but he always trusted me. Actually, I asked him to follow you. Our connections have always been thin. My father ascended the throne at the age of nearly 50. There are only three children under his knee: eldest brother, me and huan''er. The early death of the second brother and the illness of the fourth, fifth and sixth brothers have always been the pain in the heart of my father. He must not allow us to be brothers and sisters. I think big brother should understand this truth. I just want to dispel the misunderstanding between you and brother. Our Jing family blood can''t be less. "


    With that, Zhuo Xi brought two cups of tea, and Zi Ran held a white jade pot behind him.


    "Uncle Liu, isn''t this the Lantian white jade pot that Grandpa Huang gave you? Twenty years? I haven''t seen you use it. I thought you weren''t willing?! This is the only thing in the world. It can be described as a border town of value. However, the white jade base, loaded with this tender yellow tea, is very cute. "


    Zhuo Xi glanced. She was asking people to look for the original stone to make a jade cup. At this time, the jade carving was too poor. Perhaps the main reason was that the bronze tools used before were too rough.


    "Wu Yishi seems to disapprove of it."


    She hasn''t heard anyone call Wu Yishi for a long time. She can''t help getting goose bumps. She said with a smile, "three princes, please call my handwriting Zhuo Xi. Although it is valuable, in my opinion, what is valuable is not the jade itself, but the intention given by the former king to the marquis. "


    "Oh? I''d like to hear it in detail. "


    "Three princes, it is well known that there was a huge treasure left before the disintegration of Yudian in the previous dynasty, didn''t they?" She also heard Xianglan talk about it later.


    "This is just a rumor. After the kingdom of Yudian was divided into five countries, the royal families of the five countries still have no clue for decades. This rumor has gradually been forgotten. "


    "There was once a jade master in the kingdom of Yudian, named Qihe. This jade pot, cup and lamp is not only a royal treasure, but also naturally made by him. "


    "Why?"


    "There are four pots in this pot, with five words at the bottom."


    Jing Hua drank all the tea in the cup and turned it upside down. Sure enough, there was a word "mouth". The others are "one, person, mouth, household and mouth", he said with a smile, "it''s really opening and closing. But I don''t know what this opening and closing has to do with the treasure? "


    "To demonstrate this secret, I need to get something from my room." She saluted and hurried out.


    Zi Ran came up curiously, "Lord, can you give Zi ran a view of this treasure?" After Jing Yuan nodded, he carefully picked up an empty cup, went to the door and shone again and again in front of the sky. Jing Hua also picked up the cup and looked at it carefully.


    Jing Yuan chatted with him at will,


    "How about huan''er?"


    "The seventh emperor''s younger brother is always cute. The queen is very happy, and his father loves him. It''s said that it''s going to be 100 days soon. Now all the people in Bai''an Palace are nervously preparing his 100 days banquet. " Although there were only three sons, several brothers in the middle died early, so Jing Huan had ranked zhuoxi, and put the pieces of the jade cup just broken into a plane. He also dropped a few drops of wine on it, and sure enough, lines slowly emerged.


    Jing Hua waved to Zi Ran, "Zi Ran, look, you''ve made great achievements."


    "If this cup is used to drink tea, you can''t see anything. Tea is alkaline. Only acidic wine can make it appear, but if it is colorless wine, even if it appears, it can''t see anything. "


    "But it''s messy. Even if it''s displayed, it can''t be sure it''s a map."


    Zi Ran also said, "it''s true. It''s a natural grain."


    "Qihe is a master of jade. Naturally, he knows how to hide a roadmap in a set of cups." Zhuo Xi turned to Jing Yuan, took the cup in his hand, turned it over and looked at it, injected some wine, turned twice along the glass wall and handed it to Jing Yuan, "Lord Hou, please have a look."


    Jing Yuan looked carefully and his face changed greatly, "Gelao clan!"


    Jing Hua grabbed it and looked for a long time, but she couldn''t see anything. "Where is Gelao nationality?"


    Zi Ran also came over, "eh", and stopped talking. It can be seen that they all see the familiar terrain.


    Zhuo Xi said, "if the cup is slightly open, you can find the inner lines, but the jade pot is not. If you want to see, you can only break the jade pot. How can anyone in the world who doesn''t know this secret take the initiative to break the jade pot in the border town? According to my judgment, these four lamps and a pot may have to be pieced together to form a complete road map. "


    Zi Ran looked at her with admiration, "the girl is really smart!" He has said this more than once, but every time he said it, he was sincere.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said to Jing Hua, "three princes, the first king gave this thing to the marquis. Isn''t it the most precious love in the world?" It means that if Jing Yuan is forced to a dead end one day, if he finds the amazing secret of this cup, it is not difficult to make a comeback.


    Jing Hua also thought of this place and couldn''t help asking, "what if the Lord doesn''t know the secret here?"


    Zhuo Xi affirmed, "impossible!"


    "How is it impossible?!"


    Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Hua and stopped talking.


    Jing Yuan said, "but it doesn''t hurt to say that Hua''er is trustworthy."


    Zhuo Xi thought of Jing Hua blocking the left cross with her body that day, and couldn''t help but put down a few hearts.


    Jing Hua jumped up, "don''t tell me. I don''t want to know. I believe you. I''m gone. I''ll see you later. " He escaped from the Marquis like the wind. I''m kidding. In the past 50 years, the royal families of the five countries went crazy looking for clues to the treasure, but they found nothing. Now they just wander around the Marquis of Guang''an at will, and they get into this amazing secret. Will they let people live?

 Chapter 47

    Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Yuan and wondered if she would go on. Jing Yuan''s breath slowly cooled down. For a moment, it seemed to disperse again. He looked up and smiled at Zhuo Xi, "don''t tell me yet. I don''t want to use it one day. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, looked at the sky outside, hesitated and asked, "Hou ye, yesterday..."


    Jing Yuan stood up. "I think Ben Hou hasn''t gone to greet the Empress Dowager for a long time. Let''s go together."


    When Zhuo Xi got off with Jing Yuan, she was outside the palace wall. Jing Yuan said to the bodyguard at the gate of the palace. Soon, a little eunuch came out and took her away. Jing Yuan went in another direction.


    Over there, Zhuo Xi followed the eunuch who led the way to Bai''an palace, holding the two sets of clothes and two sets of jewelry that had been changed overnight, waiting outside the palace gate for summoning. Although the king personally promised to let her come to serve the day before yesterday, she didn''t have the courage to go directly to the head of a country, not to mention that such affairs were under the jurisdiction of the queen. She stood respectfully without squinting. In fact, I quietly looked at the scenery of the palace all the way. It was not extravagant at all. However, there were more pavilions, more green trees, higher buildings on the first floor, and green bricks had just been used. Ordinary people used less at home, but more in the palace.


    After a while, she went in with a low eyebrow and eyes under the sign of another eunuch. After entering, he didn''t dare to raise his eyes. He just went to the position where the eunuch signaled him to stop, knelt down, raised the tray in his hand, and said, "the little girl has brought yesterday''s auction. Please have a look at it."


    For a long time, a voice came from above, "come forward."


    Holding the tray, she walked slowly to the front and slightly raised her head. Yesterday, the beautiful imperial concubine was sitting in the center of the Phoenix seat, wearing a Golden Phoenix hairpin and a dark purple cloud silk robe.


    "What do you think of my robe today?"


    "No matter what kind of clothes and robes you wear, the sky is shining and the moon is shining. The little girl''s Phoenix robe dress is just icing on the cake for her mother. "


    "You are already a seven grade official. How can you call yourself a little girl?"


    "Your mother''s insight, the little girl came here today, not as an official, but as a civilian woman."


    "Hum, how dare you. If you are just a civilian woman, how can you see the queen Tianyan?" Su Mei, the great maid in waiting beside the queen, scolded.


    "Madam, forgive me. The people in the world are water and the king is a boat. Water can carry a boat or overturn a boat. The people think that if the king and the queen can think of the people all over the world and get close to each other, the people will also care about the monarch and be diligent and grateful. Why should they be afraid of Tianyan? "


    "You are presumptuous!" Su Mei just yelled and asked the queen to stop her.


    "A good water can carry a boat or capsize it." Sun Yao said faintly, "the king promised you the priceless thing last night. I don''t know what it is in the palace. You have sought to see the people as a woman, but you have thought of the priceless things in your heart? "


    "People''s daughter dare not. People''s daughter begged her mother to inspect the goods first to see if the clothes fit her heart?" Her hands were sore, and no one came to receive it.


    Sun Yao nodded. Two maids came forward to take the tray and opened a dress. Sun Yao seemed to ask unintentionally, "the actor dressed up as Empress Wu was born well yesterday."


    Zhuo Xi''s head was buried lower. "That woman was a cheap singer. How could she pollute her mother''s eyes."


    Su Mei came forward and smoothed her clothes, but she smelled a smell and became angry. "Presumptuous, how dare you present the clothes worn by others to her mother?!"


    Zhuo Xi looked up and said, "why did aunt say that?"


    "This dress has the smell of fat and powder."


    "Madam, this dress was made last night by 21 embroiderers in jinyumanlou, the daughter of the people. At the beginning of the fifth watch, it was steamed with orchid, cinnamon, bamboo and lotus. Therefore, the dress can give off fragrance. It is really not fat powder. Please learn from her mother! "


    Sun Yao stepped down from the Phoenix seat, walked slowly to the red phoenix robe, and smelled it carefully. Sure enough, there was a fragrance of four flowers. Nodded with satisfaction, "this dress seems different from regular clothes. How about if you serve the West Palace?" Women are born with no resistance to beautiful clothes. When they see that they are dedicated to themselves, why not try them on immediately?


    "Promise!" Zhuo Xi stood up, followed a group of maids to the inner hall and changed for sun Yao one by one. She had studied the wearing method of this suit last night. It was very cumbersome.


    He changed his clothes, put on the Phoenix crown and stepped on the Phoenix seat. The dignified queen immediately shocked all the palace eunuchs outside the palace to prostrate and tremble. Only Zhuo Xi felt too abrupt and had to follow suit.


    "The wonderful method of fumigation is really refreshing. The girl is really full of wonderful ideas. It seems that you made a lot of money yesterday. " Sun Yao couldn''t see his dressing effect, so she had to praise the fragrance of clothes, but the Phoenix crown seen in the bronze mirror was still good.


    "Back to my mother, I sold 65 pieces of clothes and 126 pieces of jewelry last night, and got a total of 28450 yuan of silver. After taking out the labor rent and decoration cost in recent days, I made a net profit of more than 13500 yuan." Zhuo Xi reported last night''s sales in one breath. He was secretly pleased to hear the sound of cold breath around him. What he wanted was this effect. She herself was shocked last night. She didn''t expect that the purchasing power of the ladies in Kyoto was so strong.


    Sun Yao secretly swallowed, "the profit of this dress is so high?"


    "Madam, the Jinyuman building is high-end positioning. The customers are mainly Mrs. Xun GUI, and the price is naturally higher. If you face ordinary people, you will not be able to sell any of them. "


    Sun Yao nodded in favor and sighed, "unexpectedly, my wives and ladies are so rich!" Although she is a queen, she has a quota in the inner palace, and she can''t buy what she likes at will. She thought that she had only raised more than 9000 yuan in a month. The little woman in front of her earned more than 13000 yuan in one night. She found herself a little jealous. Once a person is born with jealousy, his words will inevitably be sour.


    "Madam, not only the wives and ladies of xungui in Kyoto are rich, but also the wives and ladies of xungui in various counties and counties, as well as the wives and ladies of the rich merchants all over the north and south of the river..."


    "You are a girl with great ambition. Do you still want to drive the Jinyuman building to all counties?"


    "My mother, I really do have this intention, but I''m very short of money. A golden and jade building takes time and costs nearly 100000 a month. The people''s daughter can''t call out a lot of money for the moment. "


    Sun Yao immediately knew her intention, and a little urgency came out of her heart, "if someone supports..."


    "Naturally, the profit is divided according to the proportion of the subsidy amount, and the people and women can do it alone." The smile on Zhuo Xi''s face widened.


    Sun Yao was overjoyed, "it''s so good. I am very satisfied with this dress. I don''t know what you want? "


    "People''s daughter only needs two words," Zhuo Xi looked at Sun Yao brightly, "trust!"


    After the negotiation, Zhuo Xi went out of Bai''an palace with a smile, but met a man at the gate of the palace. The man was bright yellow and wore a jade crown. The eunuch who sent her out knelt down and said "Prince Jin''an". She also blessed herself and saluted. When the man passed, Zhuo Xi got up and followed the eunuch who led the way forward. Unexpectedly, after a few turns, the eunuch who led the way disappeared.


    Jing Yuan saluted the Empress Dowager and took his seat under her.


    "Jing Yuan, your mother''s affairs have been arranged?"


    Jingyuan respectfully replied, "all have been arranged."


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "when your mother was alive, she was always a saint. The first king was even more ill the month she went. Generally, the death of a concubine Hong is not allowed to be buried with the king. Moreover, she still leaves a last word with the former king. She will never see each other again in this life and can meet again after death. The former king was so proud that he agreed to her request. AI Jia doesn''t know what happened between them, which can make your mother leave such a last word? "


    Jing Yuan said, "even the Empress Dowager doesn''t know about it? It seems that only the father, the queen and the concubine know the whole story. "


    The Empress Dowager recalled for a moment and said, "except for imperial concubine yuan, it is difficult for other imperial concubines to go out of the palace and return to their mother family all their life, especially the harmonic Princess sent by different families. Your mother''s concubine was able to get the will of the previous king to return to her mother''s family to save her relatives that day. It can be seen that the previous king loved her very much. When she went out of the palace that day, she was also eight hundred guards with ten li of red makeup, which was bigger than the pomp of the newly married Princess. Unfortunately, soon after returning to the Gelao nationality, the news came that he was seriously ill. I wonder if you found out how she got sick when you went to Gelao nationality this time? What disease did you catch, so threatening? "


    "My uncle said that at the beginning, my mother and concubine Xu had been away from home for too long. Some people were acclimatized, so they stayed in bed all the time. But later, the situation became more and more serious. They not only couldn''t eat, but also vomited all the soup and medicine. The best witch doctor in the family was powerless, and finally left a suicide note and died. "


    "Yuan''er, it''s really difficult for you. After many years, it will remind you of the past and suffer from the pain of this cone. "


    "To fulfill the last wishes of the mother, the imperial concubine and the king is filial piety for children. Now that they have met, their gratitude and resentment may have gone, and the living are at ease. "


    The Empress Dowager took the towel handed over by the maid standing on one side and pressed the corner of her eye, "yes, the dead have passed away. Don''t say these sad things."


    Jing Yuan stood up and put his worship clothes on the ground. "Empress dowager, after the death of the mother, you raised me like a son. Although it''s only two years, I dare not forget the great kindness of the Empress Dowager all the time. In the child''s heart, you are the mother. " If it were not for this, Jing Tui might not be able to let him live to this day. In recent years, he has used many means to kill his brothers.


    The Empress Dowager jumped with horror and laughed again, "what are you doing? Get up. The little boy hasn''t changed at all. What can I do for you? "


    Jing Yuan propped up his upper body but didn''t stand up. "Mother, I want to ask you something."


    "Did your brother Wang embarrass you again?" She heard about the mine last time.


    "Not a child, but a girl named Zhuo Xi..."

 Chapter 48

    Zhuo Xi wondered to herself. She wandered around the neighborhood and asked several palace maids who passed by. I don''t know whether the palace maids'' language Yan is unknown or her understanding ability is not enough. She hasn''t found a way out even after turning for less than half an hour. Turning around, she came to the door of a moon. The word "wind garden" was written on the door. Seeing that there was no one on the road, she had to go into the garden to see if she could meet one or two craftsmen. After entering the park, Zhuo Xi found that the scenery here seemed very familiar. There was a row of ornamental herbs entering the door. It could be vaguely seen from some withered branches and leaves, such as peony, peony flowers and leaves. It was not out of date. It withered and withered in winter, covered with a layer of snow, and only some gold and silver flowers were still struggling to open. There was a large dry stem, and I didn''t know what kind of plant it was, which was also covered with a layer of snow. She vaguely felt that there should be a plum forest in front of her right. She skillfully bypassed the dead tree in the middle and turned a small corner. Sure enough, she saw dozens of Chimonanthus praecox in the snow. She walked forward quietly and brushed away a joint of one of the trees with her fingers as if she were a ghost. She doesn''t know why she has such a subconscious action. Maybe this is the only tiny memory of the original owner. She felt as if she had touched some marks under her fingers, but she couldn''t recognize what handwriting it was. She pressed the familiar surge in her heart and went on. Behind Merlin, there are weeds.


    Zhuo Xi thought it was not easy to be so vibrant here, so he looked carefully. Sure enough, this weed field looks messy, but several green cold resistant plants grow regularly. She walked around roughly and was surprised that the miscellaneous field was actually a medicine garden. It was full of traditional Chinese medicine, such as Hedyotis diffusa, Pinellia ternata, aconite, Chuanwu, Ophiopogon japonicus, Achyranthes bidentata, and so on. Some of them were dry and good for medicine, and some were growing vigorously, tall and handsome. There is a kind of Chuanming ginseng. In the miscellaneous branches and leaves, the sick seedlings have no spirit. Zhuo Xi couldn''t help saying to herself, "it should be covered with a warm shed. This Chuanming ginseng can flourish."


    "What is a greenhouse? How to cover it? " An old voice suddenly sounded.


    Zhuo Xi was startled. He saw a figure slowly standing up at the end of the medicine garden. He had white hair and white face. A pair of turbid eyes stared at her. "The old man, the little woman came here by mistake and disturbed you. I''m really sorry."


    "You just answer my question, what is a greenhouse? How to cover it? " The old man is approaching.


    Zhuo Xi had to harden her head and said, "the greenhouse is a small shed covered with plastic film on bamboo branches to keep plants warm." She suddenly remembered that there was no plastic film, and quickly said, "you can use soft cloth and silk. Insert a bamboo strip every five steps. Cloth and silk are covered on bamboo strips. " She drew the arc of the bamboo branch with her hand, emphasizing the need to use transparent cloth, otherwise it would block the plants from receiving the sun.


    The old man listened quietly and nodded gently, but his eyes never left her.


    Zhuo Xi finished in one breath and finally stopped to have a rest.


    The old man suddenly asked, "where have you been?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and pointed to his nose, "do you recognize me?"


    The old man shook his head. "The old man asked, where is the girl going?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned again. He was relieved when he remembered that he had just said he had entered here by mistake. "The little woman is going out of the palace. Old man, do you know where the way out of the palace is?"


    The old man nodded. "Come with me, girl."


    Zhuo Xi was happy and followed his footsteps. When he passed a corner, the old man''s clothes seemed to be hung by dead branches. He pulled them in front and pulled them back. Zhuo Xi saw something white floating down.


    She quickly shouted, "old man, you have something left."


    But he didn''t seem to hear it and continued to walk forward.


    Zhuo Xi had to come forward and pick up the thing. As she bent down, she was surprised to see the handkerchief. Not because it is a snow-white and obviously female object, but because of the conspicuous embroidery on the handkerchief. That clump of orchids, with elegant posture, was originally a fresh and elegant thing, but its color was very bold. The slender and soft blue leaves are actually big red, but the delicate small petals in the middle are big purple. Zhuo Xi said "eh" and thought it looked familiar, but she was sure it wasn''t something she had seen. Looking up, she saw that the old man was standing in front of her and looking at her not far away. She had to step forward tightly and handed him the handkerchief, "old man, you just accidentally dropped it.".


    The old man took the handkerchief, gave her a deep look, said nothing, turned and continued to walk forward.


    Out of the garden, the old man said to her, "go straight along this road, go to shunzhimen, turn right, cross two intersections, turn left, until changshunmen, turn right again, and then you can leave the palace."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, thanked the old man and went straight ahead.


    Seeing that it was getting dark, she walked to shunzhimen and turned a corner. When she was recalling the route the old man said, she suddenly heard a woman''s scream from a palace on the roadside. She paused and looked at a row of palace maids passing by the roadside without expression. They were walking past her in line with boxes of things. She suspected that she had heard wrong.


    She raised her feet and walked forward again, but she heard two terrible screams. She doubtfully stopped the last maid in the line and asked, "sister, didn''t you hear anything?"


    The maid in waiting was stopped by her and slowed down, but she still didn''t stop. She just carefully folded the box in her hand, looked at her expressionless and replied, "No."


    Zhuo Xi brushed past her, shrugged and was about to leave, but saw her free a hand stretch out a finger behind her and shake it, which meant to let herself mind her own business?


    She knew she should continue to walk in the direction of Changshun door, but the scream came into her ears one after another. With a slight sigh, she finally couldn''t help walking towards a palace in the East.


    This is a side hall without any plaque on the top. After observing for so long, she has found that the buildings of the basically asset class in this period are made of wooden wedges. Most ordinary people''s houses only use wood to build a shelf, and the main part is made of felt instead of walls and covered with grass. The sound insulation effect of the thin wooden wall of the palace was so poor that Zhuo Xigang almost suspected that the sound came from behind the door. In fact, Zhuo Xi didn''t. after stepping into the hall door, she turned two corners and found the sound source behind a similar bookshelf.


    At that time, the scream was as low as a sound. Another male voice shouted angrily, "bitch, shout! You call me! "


    Zhuo Xi peeked at the figure of a bright yellow dress standing on the ground. She was constantly moving. The woman under her body hung two snow-white thighs. She was hoarse and shouted "ah ah" hard. But soon she couldn''t make a sound anymore, because the man on her pinched her neck after the last roar.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t react at all, because she saw that there was not only one woman lying on the case, but also four naked women lying in the same position. It was obvious that they had died before she came in. From the point of view of the bending of their heads, they were all born with their necks twisted.


    A voice sounded in dismal pity, "Yi Shi, but did you come in to study? What, are you afraid of not serving your master well? Or do you think my old and frail sixth uncle can''t satisfy you? "


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyes and saw that the prince had gathered his clothes in front of her, turned around and looked at her with a smile.


    The prince continued, "if it''s the latter, I don''t mind sharing my worries for uncle Liu, so that you can experience the ultimate happiness in the world!"


    Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and nose and quickly retreated. She smiled and said, "the prince, you like this rhythm. I''m afraid I can''t afford such favor because I''m old. What''s more, although your sixth uncle is older, he knows more about the beauty of being without fragrance. He can not only fully enjoy the joy of fish and water, but also collect Yin and essence to prolong his life. " The room was filled with Ruo Wuxiang fragrance. After taking so much Ruo Wuxiang, these women would not have survived if they had not been strangled by him. As for Jing Yuan, he had to sacrifice his reputation to save his life and death.


    Hearing this, the crown prince became interested, "Oh, can it have this wonderful effect without fragrance? Let''s hear how to use it. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "it is well known that if a man takes clothes without fragrance, he can get a moment of happiness, but it always damages Yang essence. If he uses too much counter-terrorism, he will worry about his life. However, if you take Ruo Wuxiang and Sophora japonica honey together, you can not only fully share the benefits of Ruo Wuxiang, but also replenish qi and prolong life. This is because Sophora honey itself has the effects of clearing away heat, tonifying middle school, detoxifying and moistening dryness. "


    The prince laughed, "is there such a wonderful method? If the effect is good, you might as well ask Yishi to check it on the spot. " Then he flew up.


    The maid in waiting was right. They had heard such screams more than once. They must know that such things often happen, so they would remind themselves to ignore them. Unfortunately, I still can''t pretend I don''t know.


    Zhuo Xi escaped the prince''s attack with three regrets and seven anger. Not regretting that he put himself in danger to satisfy his curiosity, but regretting that he didn''t bring Xiaobai. Such a vicious man should give him a candy. It''s said that Xiaobai hasn''t eaten sugar for a long time.


    Unexpectedly, the prince''s martial arts were actually good. Zhuo Xi was pinched by his neck with one hand and cut her hands on her head with the other hand after more than ten rounds.


    The prince laughed and kissed. Zhuo Xi shook her face to avoid his kiss. The prince asked with a smile, "don''t you want to taste the good things in this palace when you hear the cry? Or are you playing hard to get? "


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. Who has time to play hard to get with you¡° It''s a little girl''s ignorance. The little girl accidentally lost her way in the palace and broke into the palace by mistake. When she met an acquaintance, she also hoped that the crown prince could point out the way out of the palace for the little girl. "


    "What good would it be if Prince Ben gave you advice?"


    "Trading is about equal exchange. It''s a small effort to show the way. If the prince wants to deal with such a small matter, the prince''s plan will be too light. "


    "Do you know that the palace has a plot?" He narrowed his eyes, let her go and straightened his robe with his hand.


    Zhuo Xi stroked her cool neck and looked at the dangerous man in front of her. She was only 17 years old, but her eyes narrowed, but it made people cold from the bottom of her heart. She quickly smiled and said, "the crown prince is the pillar of the country. The future master of the country is naturally not like a little woman eating, drinking and having fun all day. Of course, you have to be resourceful before you can make achievements. You can''t let the king and the people all over the world down. "


    "The girl just said equal exchange? The implication is that as long as the palace can afford the price, the girl is willing to give advice? "


    "The little woman has no talent and no virtue. I''m afraid she can''t match the price offered by the prince."


    The prince laughed. "They all say that the girl is Gao Zhi. It''s true to see you today. It seems that the rumors of the battle of cangcui mountain are not all groundless. "


    "The prince is too famous. The little girl has no insight. She just knows some tricks and tricks to please her master."


    "Master? Oh, you mean sixth uncle? You''re just a waiter with seven grades when you''re around uncle Liu. It''s better to follow the prince. The position of the lady on the side of the palace has been suspended for a long time. "


    Zhuo Xi was startled, "thank you for your love. Just... "


    "But now you are a man of Ben Hou. Lin''er, how dare you covet your sixth aunt? " A voice sounded from behind. Then Zhuo Xi rotated and felt himself wrapped in a familiar embrace.


    "It turned out that uncle Liu came." The prince asked with a faint smile, "six aunts? I''m afraid the sixth uncle called the wrong person? "


    Jing Yuan said coldly, "Ben Hou warned you never to make up her mind."

 Chapter 49

    In Bai''an palace, sun Yao is replacing Jing Tai with a new Dragon Robe and a hair crown. Sun Yao looked at it and looked very satisfied. "This Zhuo Xi girl is really skillful. It''s also hemp and silk products. How can she embroider such exquisite cloud patterns? My concubine sent someone to check the price of the clothes in Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan. Although there were only a few ready-made clothes stores on the market, they were only engaged in the business of noble families, and the price was not low. But the price of Feiyu drunk Yuxuan is more than five times higher than that on the market, but there is still an endless stream of buyers. "


    Jing Tai nodded, "and those gold and silver jewelry. Although I''ve seen a lot, those styles and crafts are really exquisite. Judging from the fact that she could make more than 10000 yuan last night, Zhuo Xi is indeed a talented person. She must have something to do with the iron ore. You promised her to take a stake in what chain store, and you did it right. If you can, how close you can be to her. "


    Sun Yao thought, "this is nature. Our people have slowly entered Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan. Since the iron ore forging technology is related to this woman, why don''t the king send someone... "


    "Don''t be too hasty about this. A spy came to report that the Marquis of Guang''an and Feiyu Zui Yuxuan were protected. It seems that there were people from the feather clothes door in Feiyu Zui Yuxuan yesterday. Although the feather clothes sect is a Jianghu sect, I don''t know why. "


    "I heard that the feather coat gate is composed of women and has never participated in the affairs of the court. I think there will be no malice?"


    "Hum, this Jianghu sect is not entirely unintentional. When he returned to the palace after the auction that day, Wuhe found the trace of Yanluo needle outside Fengming building and Shangyu square outside the palace. "


    "Smoke needle? Isn''t that the murder weapon of the prison gate? How did it appear in Kyoto? "


    "As soon as the cigarette needle comes out, there must be a lot of business. I just don''t know who their goal is this time. "


    "Can''t you even find out the five rivers?"


    "He only found out that it was the Duke of Guang''an who stopped the prison gate killer that day. As for the target, he didn''t know yet. However, they even set up dark spots in Shangyu square. The target may be one of our people back to the palace. Maybe it''s a few. "


    Sun Yao said in horror, "don''t talk nonsense. The matter must be found out by Wuhe and Jiang Si. "


    "Ha ha, in the palace, the thief will come soon!"


    Sun Yao covered his mouth, "you are so powerful that thieves dare to be presumptuous!"


    "Oh, by the way, in two days, huan''er''s hundred day banquet. Hou Guang''an can bring his suitable attendants to the palace for the banquet?"


    "As a rule, concubines and concubines should accompany them. However, the Marquis of Guang''an has not had a hostess for many years, so they have to enter the palace with the only suitable servant. Tomorrow, my concubine will send the banquet post to the Marquis of Guang''an. "


    "Very good." Jing Tai''s eyes are cold. The prison gate has always been active in the northwest. In recent months, it seems that only the crown prince has gone to the western area of Puzhou to control water. Are these two things related?


    "Oh, by the way, speaking of the hundred day banquet, the crown prince came here today and asked about the regulations of the palace banquet on New Year''s Eve. He was naturally cautious in organizing the new year''s Eve Palace Banquet for the first time this year. In other words, there is a difference of two days between the hundred day banquet and the new year''s Eve Palace Banquet. Although the families of officials invited to the hundred day banquet and the new year''s Eve Palace Banquet are different, a large number of people still coincide. How about... "


    "Why don''t we just merge? It''s not convenient to watch the new year''s Eve. It doesn''t matter if huan''er''s hundred day banquet is moved back for two days. "


    "Yes, I think so. The prince is also quite careful. Even Zhuo Xi''s little waiter, the prince specially came to ask if the invitation exceeded the moment. "


    "Oh? What happened? The prince even noticed this waiter? "


    "I also heard that when Wu Yishi left the palace, the eunuch who somehow led the way suddenly disappeared. She turned around in the palace for a long time and unexpectedly met the prince. I don''t know what they said."


    Jing is silent and speechless.


    "I''ve prepared your favorite meal today. It''s getting late. Why don''t you move to dinner?"


    Jing smiled and walked away, but heard the sound of the five rivers outside, "Sir, Mrs. Qin sent someone to report that she had suffered from heartache again."


    Sun Yao shook her hand tightly and said to Jing Ti with a smile, "Jun Shang, since sister Qin is not well, please move to Chi Yu palace."


    Jing Tai said faintly, "I''m not a doctor. What''s the use of going?"


    "Although you are not a doctor, I feel at ease wherever you are. I think sister Qin feels the same way. Your presence around her must be beneficial to her condition. When can''t I come here? But I''m afraid this meal is cold and bad for your spleen and stomach. I asked Su Mei to put it in a food box and send it to you. "


    "Don''t bother. I don''t have enough food in Chi Yu palace? You''d better eat slowly first and breastfeed huan''er. Don''t be hungry. I''ll go and have a look first. Come back later. "


    Sun Yao smiled and nodded. She knew that the words "come later" of the king were usually excuses. Which time did sister Qin get sick and not pester her until the middle of the night? Thinking of her, she still reminded, "take care of your dragon body."


    Jing Tai laughed and said, "Yao Er, you still know how few people are. You also have to rest early. You have to worry about the hundred day banquet in a few days. "


    "No. Sir, please take your time. " Sun Yao gave Jing ti a gift and went out. She slowly straightened up and clenched her teeth.


    When it was completely dark, Zhuo Xi followed Jing Yuan and returned to his residence in a very happy mood. Her talks with the queen were a great success. She not only got a huge investment, but also successfully won the plaque personally raised by the queen. Sure enough, the queen hasn''t been fooling around in recent years. Her private money is 300000. Although she didn''t say it clearly, which queen dares to use such a huge sum of money from the public? With the bright Queen''s signature at the bottom right of the plaque, which Lady Xun GUI is not proud to wear gold and jade clothes? Oh, no, it''s not called jinyumanlou now. The great Queen disliked that the name was too vulgar. She personally mentioned "Feiyu drunken Yuxuan", which has both clothes and jewelry, light, elegant and far-reaching meaning. Zhuo Xi flattered her with great appreciation, so that the queen happily gave her a lot of snacks and discussed the chain development route in the future.


    If she didn''t get lost after going out and meet the gloomy prince, she could keep her mood until she went to bed.


    Zhuo Xi hummed happily and came out after taking a bath and found that the bed had been occupied again. It''s not Feng Xin, but Jing Yuan who hasn''t appeared in her room for a long time.


    She had a moment of anger and wanted to rush over and pick him up, but she thought of the frying pan last night and the panda eye that had held it all day, and assessed her current brain excitement. She held back, opened the quilt corner and lay on the outside.


    But Jingyuan sneered, "why, I''m used to someone warming my quilt, so I don''t have to verify my body?"


    Where''s the strange smell¡° Identify what body? Is there another Jing Yuan? " Zhuo Xi was not angry, and her good mood was destroyed.


    "Of course there is no other Ben Hou, but other men catch a lot." Jing Yuan was upset when he thought of it, and ignored her calling him by his name.


    "Where else do men dare to come to Hou''s house?" Zhuo Xi didn''t bother to tell him. It seemed that she was sleepy. She turned out and prepared to sleep. This man is really accurate. Since she had a long talk with Fengxin all night that night, and was busy with jinyumanlou, she had lost sleep for several nights.


    "Isn''t it upstairs? "Close to the water." Jing Yuan said bitterly.


    "Oh, that''s a hyacinth upstairs." What man is there?


    "How can you make such an understatement?"


    She was about to fall asleep and muttered, "do you want to remember it?"


    Jing Yuan was angry and shook her. "What''s your heart, woman?"


    Zhuo Xi was about to fall asleep when he pulled her over and woke up. "Dear Marquis, do you still let people sleep? What the hell do you want to do? "


    "What does Ben Hou want to do? Don''t you know? "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly woke up and hugged his chest with both hands. "Hou ye, you, I......" yes, "I''m still a minor girl, you can''t!"


    "He can, but why can''t he? Ben Hou doesn''t dislike you, but you...... "he can''t go on. In fact, he''s just angry for a moment, not so beast.


    "What''s wrong with you, hyacinth? She''s a woman. What can she do to me?" Zhuo Xi shouted.


    Jing Yuan blackened his face, remained silent for a long time and turned away.


    What a shame. Are you wooden? It took him a long time to digest this sentence. He remembered the days he had lived with hyacinth, and finally suddenly. After a while, he heard the other side of the bed tremble violently. He really wanted to leave. He turned back angrily, grabbed her smiling body, and kissed her lips as soon as he raised his head.


    Zhuo Xi''s smile froze, her eyes widened and looked into his eyes. There was no bewitching look, no hypnotic vortex, only truth and sincerity. Zhuo Xi relaxed slowly and closed her eyes


    When he looked up again, he found that she was breathing long and had fallen asleep.


    So that''s it? He lay on his back, listening to the light breathing beside him, and couldn''t help grinning. He turned over and hugged her. He found that he hadn''t seen her in January. The little girl was actually plump?

 Chapter 50

    The next day, all the ladies and ladies who came to Jinyuman building were surprised to find that the original low-key plaque with gold characters on a black background had been replaced by a "Feiyu zuiyu jade Pavilion" with gold characters on a red background, with a thick border. Careful people will find that a name was signed in the lower right corner of the plaque. People with a little grade immediately stood in awe, and then swaggered forward. When they saw the beautiful embroidered clothes on the first floor, they immediately felt that the price next to the clothes was not expensive at all. After all, it is used and produced by the royal family. Even the queen raised the plaque herself. Who knows that this shop has been owned by the royal family? Who dares to make such a counter-offer without eyes? Moreover, the auction of that day gave great affirmation to the things here, both in appearance and technology. Which lady doesn''t want to have one or two?


    The energetic Zhuo Xi stood on the small balcony on the side of the second floor and looked at the ladies who came in from the front door. Her face was covered with a smile. Xianglan stood behind her, also with yourong Yan. This Jinyuman building, oh no, now it''s called Feiyu zuiyu Xuan, which was built bit by bit under the guidance of the young lady. Until she suddenly saw a familiar figure behind the carriages lined up on the street, hurriedly pulled miss''s sleeve, pointed to the figure and said, "Miss, the hyacinth is coming."


    Zhuo Xi saw her calm face now, and knew that she had figured out the joints, nodded admiringly, "well, she''s coming. You take her to the Xianya Pavilion on the third floor, and I''ll come right away. "


    Hyacinth has been crazy lately. Since she was coerced by Zhuo Xi to be a model for one day, some strange things will appear in the room for no reason. For example, sometimes it is a fragrant white lily, sometimes a white jade hairpin in a brocade box and sometimes a gauze towel in the box are found on the dresser. It''s the cheapest small piece in Jinyuman building, but even if the price is low, it''s several times more expensive than the same thing outside, and it''s very exquisite. Hyacinth was not angry at the appearance of these things, but that the man could come and go without a trace in her room. And the person who can put these things must know her daughter''s body. Who else will there be except the man that night?! Originally, she wanted to slowly forget this person. As Zhuo Xi said, he saved his life after all. It was the price of taking the antidote. Who knew this person was so hateful. If you want to provoke her, you must understand the cost of provoking her.


    She had this idea all the way and ran to the Jinyuman building. Downstairs, he found that the plaque had been changed. He was suspicious that he was going the wrong way, but he saw Xianglan greeting him in front, "Hyacinth childe!"


    She has always liked Xianglan very much. Since the first sight of her, there has been no infatuation of ordinary women after seeing her. She just greeted herself normally and hesitated. At the moment, Xianglan is giving him a generous gift. "I''ve seen Mr. hyacinth. Miss is waiting for you in the Xianya Pavilion on the third floor. Please!"


    He entered the building like a wind.


    Xianglan waited for his back to disappear and quietly walked to the stone lion beside the right gate. It seemed that he inadvertently kicked a small stone on the ground into the groove between the two big feet of the stone lion.


    The hyacinth kicked open the door of Xianya Pavilion and saw Zhuo Xi cooking a pot of flower tea in front of the window.


    Zhuo Xi glanced at her. "My gate is made of ebony and worth thousands of gold. If you kick it, are you sure you can afford it?"


    The hyacinth sat impolitely in front of her, "ebony is very hard. Insects and ants don''t eat and mosquitoes and flies avoid. If it can be kicked by me, it won''t be called ebony."


    Zhuo Xi said in surprise, "Why are you so angry? So that Fang Cun forgets that he is an expert with high martial arts? " Open your eyes and lie. Is there any virtue?


    The hyacinth sneered, "now someone can come and go freely in my room. How can I dare to call myself a master?"


    Zhuo Xi was even more surprised. "How could there be such a person with excellent martial arts in the mansion?"


    As soon as the hyacinth patted the table, Zhuo Xi shook the teapot in her hand, "tell me, who is the dark guard?"


    "Dark guard in the mansion, do you know anyone else?"


    The hyacinth took a deep breath. "It''s ok if you don''t tell me. Tell him not to annoy me again!"


    Zhuo Xi poured her tea and handed her a cup. "Come and taste my chrysanthemum and medlar flowers and reduce your anger." She asked gently, "what happened?"


    The hyacinth took out the dried lily, hairpin and gauze towel from his sleeve and threw them on the table, "do you recognize these three things?"


    "Nature knows that this Lily was put on the windowsill of Fengming tower on the night of auction that day; These jade hairpins and gauze scarves are the products of Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan. They sold one yesterday and one today. "


    "That may find out who the buyer is?"


    "This is a trade secret. How can I check it?"


    The hyacinth was crazy. "It''s OK not to check. I''m waiting here. I can always wait until he comes again."


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "do you really have to find him?"


    "Nature."


    "How will you stay when you find him?"


    "I said I would tear him to pieces!" The hyacinth showed his gnashing of teeth again, "if he escapes from here, it''s all right. Unexpectedly, he bullied me so far. How can I give up?! You must tell me who he is! "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "ah Xin, don''t deceive me again. You didn''t find him to break him into pieces. By your means, you can let him sneak into your room once, and there is no possibility of a second or third time. If you spread poison powder anywhere on the windowsill, he will be poisoned and killed immediately. You can''t bear to do it. You want to find him. What''s the matter? "


    The hyacinth lowered his head, meditated for a moment, made up his mind, and simply said, "I''m pregnant." Like a thunder.


    "Pu" Zhuo Xi spewed out a mouthful of tea, "what are you talking about When ordinary women mention this, shouldn''t they blush first and then say it? She said suspiciously again, "really?"


    The hyacinth put out his hand directly, "see for yourself."


    Zhuo Xi pushed her hand back awkwardly, "I believe you." What''s the pulse? It''s killing her. Can you let people feel the pulse easily?


    She shrugged. "I''m pregnant. I found him just to see what kind of person he is. If he looks good and he''s not stupid, I''ll give birth to the child. Otherwise, I''m going to fill the medicine. "


    There seemed to be a very light sound outside the door.


    Hearing the sound, the wind immediately got up and was about to fly away. Zhuo Xi shouted "Oh", and his hand was touching the small stove with boiling water. It was waving wildly, and the kettle fell towards the side of the wind. One side of the hyacinth left foot to avoid, one side of the right toe to hook, the whole table moved back with her. Zhuo Xi stood up and ran over, nervously asked, "are you okay? Thank you for saving me. "


    Hyacinth grabbed her scalded wrist and said, "you can hurt yourself for him?"


    "What are you talking about?"


    "You hurt yourself in order to give him time to run for his life? Do you know that if that pot of hot water runs down, your legs will burn a lot? The skin of the girl''s house is very precious. If the Marquis knew about it, guess what he would do? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled bitterly, "it''s urgent. I have to do it."


    "But I''m afraid your efforts will be in vain."


    "What? Is he back? " Zhuo Xi listened, knowing that she couldn''t hear anything.


    "No, he didn''t come back. But I already know who he is. I take back what I just said. What''s the use of keeping such a fickle man? "


    Xianglan heard something outside, rushed in and held Zhuo Xi, "Miss, are you okay?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the back of her hand, which was burned red. "It''s OK, nothing."


    The hyacinth suddenly spat out a trace of blood and leaned against the wall. Zhuo Xi was shocked and walked quickly. Xianglan took two steps and stopped in front of her.


    The hyacinth sneered and said, "Xianglan, you finally made a move. It''s a colorless and tasteless heavenly powder. It''s really the pen of the feather clothes door."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised again and looked at Xianglan''s back, "Xianglan, you..."


    Xianglan didn''t turn around. He still protected Zhuo Xi and took a few steps back. "If you didn''t use your internal power to hurt miss, how could you get hurt?"


    She said with a slight side of her head and quickly explained to Zhuo Xi, "Miss, hyacinth is a dangerous man. I''ll explain to you later. Please leave here first. Someone will pick you up to the Marquis house. "


    "The man of the feather coat door is outside the door. If you dare to step out of the door, you will be bloody on the spot."


    Xianglan hurriedly said, "Miss, please believe me!"


    Zhuo Xi looked at them and couldn''t make up her mind for a moment¡° What the hell is the feather gate? "


    The hyacinth laughed and spilled more blood. "You don''t even know what the feather door is. Dare you go with them?"


    Xianglan said angrily, "young master hyacinth, you''d better not move your Qi any more because you have the fragrance of heaven."


    The hyacinth only felt that he was bleeding in one breath. "The fragrance of heaven is the first of the four strange poisons in the world. I can die in the hands of the fragrance without regret. It''s just a pity, my... "


    Zhuo Xi calmed down instead, remembered the fetus in her abdomen and asked anxiously, "Xianglan, do you have an antidote for this poison?"


    Xianglan was surprised, "Miss?"


    "Give her the antidote."


    "No, miss."


    "Give it to her!"


    Xianglan stamped his foot and said, "Miss, if you want to test me with this, you don''t have to! The antidote is not on the maid at the moment. "


    Seeing that it was useless to say more, Zhuo Xi pushed away Xianglan, took out the pill made of that little red fruit and squatted in front of hyacinth, "a Xin, I believe you won''t do it to me. If you doubt me, you will not be caught in the fragrance of heaven without precaution. This is a pill that can solve most poisons. It may have some effect. If you believe me, eat it. "


    The hyacinth took it and swallowed it. "Elder martial brother believes you, I naturally believe you. No matter whether the national incense can be solved this day or not, today I know the answer I want to know, and I die in peace. "


    Xianglan saw that his heart was not appreciated, so he had to open Zhuo Xi again, "miss! This person has to guard against! "


    Zhuo Xi went to the window and opened the half closed window wider. She said in a deep voice, "Xianglan, don''t worry first. Tell me, why did you start with ah Xin today? "


    "Today, I saw her coming with murderous spirit. I was afraid that she would be bad for miss. So I painted the door of this elegant pavilion with heaven incense. If she hadn''t kicked the door open with her feet, the poison would have entered her internal organs at the moment when she used her true Qi. On this day, the national fragrance is colorless and tasteless. Ordinary people will not hurt their body if they smell it. However, for people with internal power, once they use real Qi, they will poison their hair. If she didn''t want to fight the young lady, how could she use her true anger? If she leaves here today without any difference, the maidservant will naturally offer the antidote with both hands when she returns to the Marquis house. "


    Zhuo Xi was dumb. "According to what you said, you really did it to protect me?"


    "It''s natural."


    "Since you are a member of the feather door, how can I trust you?"


    "Miss, since you have the complete jade bone order, how can you not know the feather coat door?"


    "What jade bone order?" Zhuo Xiqi road.


    The hyacinth stroked his chest and was shocked. He spewed out a mouthful of blood again, "do you have a jade bone order? Who the hell are you? "


    Zhuo Xi''s mind flashed and a flash of light, "you mean this?" She took out the two dominoes from her neck when she left the tomb of the first king.

 Chapter 51

    Xianglan stared at the hyacinth and didn''t speak for a moment.


    The hyacinth trembled and stretched out her hand. Zhuo Xi came forward and handed it to her.


    The hyacinth looked carefully and squinted at the sky outside the window, "it''s really a jade bone order. No wonder the feather door will appear here. " With that, she respectfully returned the jade bone order to Zhuo Xi, tried to sit up and prostrate herself, "Fengxin, the disciple of wuchenzi, has seen Yongzi order Lord."


    Xianglan was surprised, "are you the closing disciple of wuchenzi?"


    Hyacinth sat up, brushed her long hair behind her shoulder and smiled at her. The blood on her lips made her more charming as a demon, "exactly."


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly interrupted the two people to talk about the past, "don''t be busy recognizing relatives, please tell me what the jade bone order means first? What is the feather door? What''s the relationship between wuchenzi and Yugu Ling? "


    Xianglan hurriedly saluted, "Miss, please wait a moment. My maid told me to get the antidote quickly." She opened the door and went out.


    The hyacinth smiled calmly, "today is indeed a memorable day. I not only know who my baby''s father is, but also let me find the Yongzi order Lord. Master has a spirit in heaven. I can feel at ease. Even if the poison is not solved today, I will die without regret! "


    "You don''t want to die, dead, say quickly, why does your master look for this eternal word to order the Lord?"


    "Shifu wuchenzi was an expert in the world, but because the royal family of the previous dynasty was kind to him, he promised to repay him one day. Forty six years ago, when the royal family of the former dynasty was secretly attacked and fled to the East and West, a blood vessel was taken by the guard to the mountains to find master, hoping to entrust the royal blood to master''s care. Unexpectedly, master used to travel around the mountains and rivers. He was not in the valley at that time. When he returned to the valley, it was too late. He only saw incomplete letters and corpses all over the ground. From the letter, he learned that the royal blood fled around with the tokens of Yong, Chang, Dun and an. The one who came to find him was the Yong Ling, so he regretted it. Search for the mountain forever, and promise to go to the mountain forever. Before he died, he never forgot this and told me to complete two major tasks in my life. One is to detoxify my senior brother. The other is to find Yongzi Lingzhu or his descendants to protect him and help him until he doesn''t need me. " The hyacinth said in one breath and spewed out a mouthful of blood.


    Zhuo Xi hated and held her. "Don''t talk first. The antidote will come soon."


    "Heaven, a pillar of incense. It means that if there is no antidote in a column of incense, it will...... "


    "Xianglan, Xianglan." Zhuo Xi shouted, "hurry up!"


    Xianglan rushed into the house, took her hand like electricity, and controlled several of her acupoints. "I''m sorry, miss. The maid has sent someone to get the antidote. She will come soon."


    "It doesn''t matter, ah Xi, let me finish. Actually, I''m glad to have a friend like you. Since I have fulfilled master''s last wish, I can rest assured that you are here for elder martial brother''s illness. The poison in the elder martial brother''s medicine is named Tian Han Xiang. The prescription for the antidote has already been prepared, but the medicine guide needs the bile of your little white snake. I never thought that I could take out bile without hurting Xiaobai. It also needs you to worry more in the future. Although I''m a little stupid, my martial arts looks pretty good. When I go underground and see the baby in my belly, I can also describe my father to him. If he comes, you also tell him that I don''t hate him, but I will thank him for giving me two lives. In addition, tell him that I don''t ask for anything else, but this seven is a big sacrifice. I must burn a name symbol for the child who is less than a month old, let him, let him reincarnate as soon as possible, can''t, can''t let him, he is a lonely ghost with a mother and no father. " Zhuo Xi held her nose sour and nearly shed tears.


    Xianglan has cried into tears, "childe, childe, no, sister, I''m sorry, I''m sorry, you must hold on!" She raised her ears and wept, "coming!" Disregarding that this was the window along the street, he flew out of the window directly. After a while, he flew up again.


    The hyacinth spewed out the last mouthful of blood. His chest was full of blood. His long Phoenix eyes closed tightly and collapsed powerlessly in Zhuo Xi''s arms.


    Zhuo Xi was shocked, "a Xin! Ah Xin! "


    Xianglan hurriedly opened the medicine bag, held the hyacinth''s mouth, and poured the medicine powder into it.


    "Sister, the antidote is coming. Take it. Take it." But the powder was dry and stuck to the lips and tongue of hyacinth.


    Zhuo Xi turned her head and saw that there was half a pot of water left on the table. She hurriedly brought it over and Xianglan stopped it. "This medicine can''t be taken with water."


    "What?"


    Xianglan silver teeth a bite, took out a knife, toward his wrist is a knife, "what are you doing?" Zhuo Xi grabbed her hand.


    Xianglan pushed her away, pinched the tongue of the hyacinth with the other hand, and put the blood on her wrist into her mouth drop by drop.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Can''t you take it with water, can you only take it with blood?


    Xianglan said in tears, "Miss, I will bear the mistakes I made. Sister hyacinth, wake up. "


    Before he finished, he saw the hyacinth Phoenix''s eyes open, got up and held them aside and retched, "dead girl, just teasing you for a while. Who asked you to feed me with blood? Stare what stare? Don''t you wrap it up quickly? "


    Xianglan cried and laughed. He sat down on the ground with a snort. He didn''t care about his wrist. He grabbed the hyacinth''s hand and asked, "sister, are you really all right? Great. "


    Hyacinth was still retching, but he didn''t dare to really spit out the powder. "I vomited all over blood. Now I still disgust me with blood. Don''t you know I''m pregnant?"


    Xianglan breathed a sigh. Zhuo Xi had torn off her skirt and wrapped her wrist around and around, "you two enemies want my old life!" She stopped Xianglan''s blood and sat beside the hyacinth. She was shocked. After taking two deep breaths, she began to ask for business, "Xianglan, is this really a Yongzi order?"


    Xianglan also took over and shone at the sky, looked carefully and said, "exactly. The person who owns the jade bone order must be the blood of the king of Yudian. You have two pieces. Is the other one... "


    Yudian country? Former royal family? Zhuo Xi thought of the two father and daughter who died in the tomb, "yes, the other piece was obtained from a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties. When I saw him, he had been dead for a long time."


    Xianglan sighed, "that must be my family and relatives of my generation. Yuyimen is the dark Guardian organization left by the royal family of the former dynasty. Now my Yu family blood is only scattered. Sister, tell me, which blood line are you? How old are you this year? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled awkwardly, "I picked up the jade card, not mine."


    Xianglan smiled contemptuously, "this place has been surrounded by my feather door. There will be no outsiders. Don''t deny it any more. Although the blood of the royal family in the previous dynasty turned pale outside, it was absolutely safe inside the feather gate. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled bitterly, "I really picked it up."


    Xianglan angrily said, "sister, I''m the Lord of Changzi order, but only half. You see. " She took out another jade bone order, and sure enough, it was only half. "Now, if you deny it again, it will be too unfair! At that time, only a few people left Yu''s blood to flee. Now, 40 years later, there are few relatives and elders of the generation. The remaining people are strangers and have to recognize each other with jade bone orders. Now it''s easy for me to find Yongzi order, but you won''t recognize me. What''s the reason? "


    Zhuo Xi was speechless, and remembered that the girl in the tomb said that she wanted her to live instead of her. In order to avoid the sadness of her relatives, she had to say, "I really know nothing. All I know is that I grew up in the palace when I was a child. I had to be taught by an old eunuch''s master. Then I was selected to bury the former king. I found this order in the tomb. Only with this order can I open the exit of the tomb passage and escape. "


    Xianglan showed a sudden look, "sister, the old eunuch must be an old man of the previous dynasty. Yongziling is the same vein between Yu and Ming. According to the old people of yuyimen, the generation of he only escaped with a pair of children. Since there is a mechanism in the tomb path that can be opened by this token, it must be built with the participation of old craftsmen of the previous dynasty. The half you found may be with Uncle Ming. Only the two halves of blood relatives can be together. The middle-aged man you see may be your father. In order to protect you, he hid you in the palace without telling you anything. "I don''t know why you are going to escape from the tomb with tears..." I don''t know why you are going to cry with him.


    Zhuo Xi also really admired her for thinking about this.


    Xianglan then said, "look, you should be younger than me. In this way, you should call me sister. My father is crown prince Hezhao and your father is a direct brother. Since I was sensible, I have been looking for relatives everywhere. Sister, I finally found you. " Xianglan hugged Zhuo Xi and tears fell out again.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly wiped her tears. She couldn''t stop wiping them. She comforted her, "well, since our sisters meet, we should be happy. How can we cry like this?"


    "Hum, since you knew she had a jade bone order, how can you recognize her today? Make me walk in front of the yama palace for nothing? " The hyacinth said coolly.


    Xianglan''s attention was diverted. Sure enough, he bowed his head in embarrassment, "sister hyacinth, I''m really sorry. If the situation were not different today, the feather gate would not appear in such a hurry. "


    "For the sake of saving my life, let you go this time."


    "Xianglan, listen to you. You didn''t intend to recognize me?" Zhuo Xi asked.


    "It''s natural. Once our Yu family''s blood is exposed, we will face great risks. Therefore, we should not expose our identity unless we have to or under the premise of absolute safety. I found this jade bone order when I helped you tidy up your room. Very happy, so let the people of the feather gate protect you secretly. Today is a misunderstanding, which makes the feather gate surround here. "


    "Now after talking about it, let them withdraw." The hyacinth stood up and said faintly, "I have something important to do. I''ll take a step first." Then the big thorn flew out of the window. Zhuo Xi only had time to shout, "be careful of the baby!" I don''t know if the poison has any effect on the fetus. It''s worrying.


    There was a knock outside the door. Xianglan said faintly, "come in."


    A woman in blue pushed the door and entered, "Lord, we were surrounded by a group of dark guards just now. After the hyacinth childe went out, the group of dark guards withdrew."


    Xianglan said, "it should be from Hou''s house. Don''t panic."


    Zhuo Xi''s face turned black. "Who is this?"


    Xianglan said, "this is the surprised speech of the feather clothes door. You lack a maid with high martial arts around you. Let her follow you?"


    "Are you leaving?"


    "Sister, I''ve found you. I have to find the next family member."


    "Elder sister, wait a minute and make a decision. I''ll ask you first. What do you think of my Feiyu drunk Yuxuan?" Zhuo Xi was in a hurry when she heard that she was leaving. How could she let go of a right-hand assistant she had just trained?


    "My sister is very clever. Although you and I built the Feiyu Zui Yuxuan together, everything from beginning to end is my sister''s idea. I just follow my sister''s idea. Now it runs smoothly and makes rich profits. My sister and I are also proud. "


    "Let me ask you something you shouldn''t ask. What''s the economic source of the feather gate these years?" She looked at the coarse clothes that surprised Yan was wearing and felt that the economic situation was not very good.


    Xianglan was embarrassed. "The feather coat door is full of women and has no real industry. Every day, everyone enters the secular world as a slave and a maid in order to survive. Other operation funds mainly depend on the door owner''s often sending some money."


    "May I ask who is the door owner?"


    "My sister is ashamed. She only knows that the sect leader is aunt Mingying, but I have never seen her, and I don''t know where she is and how to make a living."


    "In that case, my sister has a way to let the sisters of the feather clothes sect not only no longer work hard for slaves and maidservants, but also enable the feather clothes sect to establish its own industry, obtain a stable economic source, and make it easier to better inquire about information and find relatives. Is my sister willing?" How can we not make good use of such a readily available, sufficient and safe human resource?


    "Is that true?" Xianglan said happily, and surprised Yan also opened his mouth in surprise.


    Zhuo Xi took a long breath and whispered to Xianglan, listening to them nodding frequently.

 Chapter 52

    When Zhuo Xi returned to Hou''s house, Zi Ran hurried to see her, dragged her to linyue Pavilion, and called "girl, help."


    Zhuo Xi ordered Xianglan to go to the backyard with startled words to see mother Wu and settle down. She staggered and followed Zi Ran.


    "What happened?"


    Zi Ran said hurriedly, "Jianrong was punished. In the afternoon, Rong suddenly came back to me. He didn''t know what to say in the house, so he was kicked out by me. He has been kneeling honestly in the yard for nearly four hours. "


    She asked, "has ah Xin been here?"


    Zi Ran said, "Hyacinth childe? I don''t know. I followed my Lord and took the dark guard out of the house all afternoon. I just came back. "


    She remembered what surprised Yan said in the afternoon that dark guards surrounded them and asked, "did you go to surround Feiyu Zui Yuxuan in the afternoon?"


    Zi Ran touched his nose, "yes. I was worried that you were in danger, so I hurried there. "


    Then they arrived at the door of linyue Pavilion and saw Jianrong kneeling on the gravel.


    Zhuo Xi pushed the door and entered. Jing Yuan was sitting in front of the case and looking at a long directory. He didn''t know what it was. What''s wrong with her


    "It''s a big mistake to have to be punished."


    "Tell me?"


    "His duty is to protect you, but he left his duty without permission on the way and came to me to ask for a private matter."


    "Private affairs? What private business? " Zhuo Xi is more interested in this.


    "He put you in danger for no reason. Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise his death would not be enough to redeem his sin."


    "I''m not in danger." Hyacinth and Xianglan are just misunderstandings. Zhuo Xi said.


    "If it is not the feather clothes gate that surrounds Feiyu zuiyu Pavilion today, it is the prison yuan gate. What do you do? "


    "Prison gate? Where did you come from? "


    "Hum, you don''t know you''ve been targeted by the world''s first killer organization?"


    "Killer? Kill me? I have never had a grudge against anyone. Why would anyone want to kill me? "


    "You lead the king out of the palace with such a high profile. If you kill you and hurt some people by mistake, do you think your death is worth it?"


    Zhuo Xi took a breath, "you mean the prince? He found the prison gate again? "


    "Fortunately, you are just a fake target, not his real target. As long as you stay away from the king, stay away from danger. "


    Zhuo Xi can only ha ha. What''s she doing to find Jingtai¡° You heard everything? " She needs to confirm.


    "Ben Hou also personally saw your sisters meet. The scene was very touching." Jingyuan cold sound channel.


    "What? Did you see it? " It must be very close to Xianya Pavilion. The people at the feather gate didn''t find it?


    "If you don''t go, how can you miss such a big play? It''s like tears when you hear it, but it''s sad when you see it. "


    Zhuo Xi touched her nose, "ha ha, you know, it''s all fake. They mistook me. I said that the jade bone order was picked up. She didn''t believe it. "


    "No, if you really want to make a big career, you should acquiesce to this identity."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly thought of something, "what will this feather coat do? Since it is the dark Guardian organization of the previous dynasty, will it be bad for you?"


    "Why, are you worried about Ben Hou?"


    Zhuo Xi was very dedicated and replied, "I am now employed by the marquis. Naturally, I have to consider it for the marquis. If my business is detrimental to the safety of the Marquis, we naturally need to think twice. "


    "It''s harmless for the time being. Don''t worry. However, I hope what Xianglan said is true. "


    "Hou ye?" Zhuo Xi didn''t understand what he meant for a moment.


    "I hope what she said is true. I heard that she and uncle Ming hid at the foot of the palace and once had a son and a daughter. If you were his daughter, you would be sixteen this year. " Jingyuan didn''t know when she had come to her. With one hand, she gently grabbed a wisp of her black hair and looked at her gently.


    Zhuo Xi was short circuited for a moment. She suddenly remembered what she said last night, and her face turned red.


    Jing Yuan remembered the fullness she held in her arms yesterday, and couldn''t help but ask her, "tell me the truth, how old are you?"


    Zhuo Xi blinked, "brother said I''m only thirteen. Don''t mess around."


    Jing Yuan almost put his lips to her ear. "Do you think Ben Hou will believe it?"


    Zhuo Xi pushed him away with a finger. "Do you believe it or not, what am I doing? However, today''s Feiyu drunken jade pavilion has a special guest. Since you have been to Feiyu drunken jade Pavilion, have you seen her? "


    Jing Yuan squinted and asked, "who is it?"


    "Wang Jialin."


    The first time I saw Wang Jialin, zhuo''er didn''t know that she was the fiancee who had been married to Guang''an Hou for three years.


    After a secret conversation with Xianglan Jingyan, she went downstairs to inspect the lobby as usual. She saw a tall woman with a maid walking in. It seemed that she was over seventeen, but she had not done it. It was very rare among the ladies in Kyoto. So she looked more. Her skin is white and beautiful, and her figure is exquisite. This is her first impression.


    The handmaid and salesperson trained by Xianglan had already welcomed her and asked the handmaid behind her to take out the clothes of the beauty for more than three seconds. When she got inside, the maid held her clothes and asked her to try them on one by one with a smile on her face. She was obviously very satisfied with it and picked out at least eight clothes.


    Later, she went to the second floor. After a while, Zhuo Xi, who was inspecting the lobby, heard a sharp quarrel upstairs. She went upstairs looking for a voice, but saw a maid running down in a hurry, "Miss, sister Xianglan, please go up."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. Although she wanted to go up and have a look, Xiang Lan could handle ordinary disputes. What kind of person made her send someone to call herself?


    When she arrived at the VIP room on the second floor, she saw the woman leaning against the window smiling faintly. The maid next to her shouted, "the things in the Hou house are the things of the young lady''s own house. Isn''t it reasonable for my young lady to take away her own things? One by one, how dare you be the Lord of the Marquis and his wife? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t understand, "what''s your own thing?"


    Xianglan saw her coming over, gave up her position and blessed her, "Miss, the Miss said, she said..." she wanted to stop talking, so it was difficult to publicize the name of an unmarried woman''s husband''s family.


    The maid rushed forward and said, "my miss is the future madam of Hou''s house. miss? What kind of lady are you? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t answer her, but went straight to the woman in front of the window, "I''m flying feather drunk, shopkeeper Zhuo Xi of Yuxuan. What do you call Miss? "


    The woman stood up proudly and straightened her body, gently opened her red lips, "Jialin in the East Jiufang palace."


    "It''s Miss Wang. What''s the problem here? Are you dissatisfied with the things in our shop, or do you want to negotiate the price? "


    "I''m very satisfied with the things here, but why don''t you allow us to take them away?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "isn''t the girl a fairy who doesn''t eat human fireworks? If you want to buy something, you naturally need money to change it. How can there be a reason to take it away? "


    Wang Jialin looked a little embarrassed. She thought that when she reported the famous number, the female shopkeeper naturally understood her identity. Unexpectedly, she seemed to know nothing about it¡° Is this store owned by the Marquis of Guang''an? "


    "Why did you say that, girl?" Zhuo Xi was surprised.


    "Was this building built by the Marquis of Guang''an?" Wang Jialin had to tell her the truth from the beginning.


    "Yes."


    "Are the goods here made of gold and silver purchased by the Marquis of Guang''an?"


    Zhuo Xi thought, "part of it."


    "Is this the shopkeeper of Guang''an''s house?"


    This is undeniable, "yes".


    "In that case, this is not the industry of the Marquis of Guang''an?" The maid screamed out sharply, "my miss is the future Mrs. Hou of Guang''an. She will pass the door next March. Where is it too much to take something from the shop at home?"


    i see. Zhuo Xi understands.


    "But Miss Wang, this flying feather drunk Yuxuan is an autograph of the queen."


    Wang Jialin''s face changed as soon as she said this.


    "Half of the gold and silver used to build buildings and jewelry comes from Bai''an palace." Zhuo Xi turned to the handmaid with a smile, "is it true that your young lady is also the future master of Bai''an palace?"


    The maidservant flopped and knelt on the ground, trembling and said, "the maidservant didn''t, didn''t say that."


    Wang Jialin''s complexion was already iron green. She didn''t want to do such a thing for nothing. Unexpectedly, everything looked good here. She couldn''t help wanting more. Encouraged by the maid, she thought it wouldn''t matter if she took it. That''s why she came out. I didn''t expect to go around and around myself. "The girl is really articulate. There is a girl in the Hou''s house who presides over the overall situation. It must be a wind and water rise and a wide range of money. "


    Want to surround her with the same trap¡° I dare not. The Marquis house has its own Lord in charge of the overall situation. How can I get my little seven grade female official to decide? " That means, you''re just a little prime minister now. How dare you speak wildly when you see a seven grade female official? If you want to put on the airs of the Lord''s wife, come and marry.


    Wang Jialin endured and put on her sleeves, "luo''er, let''s go!"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "Miss Wang, take your time. Next time you come, report Zhuo Xi''s name and give you a 10% discount."


    When she repeated this paragraph, she learned ten percent of Wang Jialin''s angry appearance. Jing Yuan was a little disappointed.


    She looked at his face and joked, "why, can''t you see me bullying your fiancee? Unhappy? "


    "Ben Hou is unhappy."


    Zhuo Xi also heard that he was unhappy. When he was unhappy, he would call himself Ben Hou in a very low tone.


    "Oh, it hurts before I pass the door?"


    Jing Yuan was angry and didn''t fight. He took her face and kissed her heavily. He let go of her for a long time and asked against her head, "there is only one person I love. Don''t you know? Zhuo Xi, don''t you really care? "


    "Next March, I will leave. What does it matter if I don''t care?" Zhuo Xi was also a little disappointed. She just didn''t know where to find another hypnotist if she lost sleep at that time.


    Jing Yuan sighed, knowing that he couldn''t hold her, "after Shangyuan Festival, I''m going to Liangzhou. Please accompany me these days.".


    Zi Ran knocked on the door outside. "Yes, girl, dinner is ready."


    Jing Yuan took her hand and walked out. Zhuo Xi saw Jianrong kneeling on one side and asked, "well, can you let Jianrong go?"


    "Are you sure you want me to let go of the room?"


    "He didn''t actually do anything wrong."


    "He didn''t do anything wrong? Who is the one who insulted my younger martial sister? Who is the one who ate dry, wiped clean and left? Who is the one who has to come to marry after hearing that she is pregnant? "


    "They all said that he insulted ah Xin to save her. Otherwise, how could Jianrong succeed with ah Xin''s martial arts? The next day after a Xin was molested, he was very angry and wanted to find him in pieces. I asked him to hide it for the time being. He came to marry... Well, did he really come to marry? " Zhuo Xi just digested his words and shouted excitedly.


    Jingyuan Tieqing nodded with a face¡° Hum! A little dark guard, who has no fixed residence and no meager wealth, dares Xiao to marry my younger martial sister! "


    "Why, I can''t bear it?"


    "Naturally, I don''t want my younger martial sister to be asked to marry under such unbearable circumstances. If I do marry, I won''t have to suffer all the hardships!"


    "It''s a small matter to live without a fixed place and have no constant wealth at home. The key is that he really treats ah Xin. " Although it''s a pity that a Xin is so beautiful, his appearance is not bad.


    "Do you really want me to spare room?"


    "Yes." Zhuo Xi nodded happily. A Xin was proposed. What was her joy?


    "If this yard is allowed at this time, do you think he still has life?"


    Uh? She thought of ah Xin gnashing her teeth and shivered. Zi Ran, who followed them, suddenly shut up and dared not speak again.


    "Has the Ruoshui house in the West been repaired?"


    "Yes, it has been repaired and dried for some time. You can check in. Do you have any guests to arrange? " Zhuo Xi nodded her head.


    "Let hyacinth move in immediately. She can choose twelve rooms on the third floor."


    "Well, why?" Zhuo Xi didn''t understand for a moment. She lived well in Furong. Why did she move?


    "Convenient." After he said these two words, he didn''t speak again.


    Zhuo Xi thought and wanted to ask, who is it? You? I? Her? He?

 Chapter 53

    Having a good dinner, Jing yuanyan was busy with official business. Zhuo Xi returned to Furong house by herself. When I was going upstairs, I saw that Jingyan was touching in the bathroom and looked surprised. She suddenly remembered the child who lived on the first floor. It seemed that she had not seen him for a long time. Today, Xianglan mentioned looking for relatives. She remembered that Meng recognized Xianglan as his sister when he first saw her. Xianglan looked very similar to the girl in the tomb. She said that his father had not returned since he went to find his sister. In this way, if you really replaced the girl''s identity, wouldn''t you become qumeng and don''t know the sister? She suddenly figured out that such a big loophole in this joint had to be repaired quickly.


    She went to Meng''s room on the first floor and found that his room was empty. Her head blew. Where''s the man? She immediately called Xianglan next door and asked loudly, "where''s Xiao Meng? Where''s Xiaobai? " Yes, the point is Xiaobai. He won''t run away with Xiaobai, will he?


    Xiang Lan came jogging and said, "don''t panic, miss. Xiao Meng and Fengxin moved to Hefeng hall in the south. The maidservant also just looked for someone and asked mother Wu. Only then did she know that Fengxin returned here this afternoon and immediately took all her luggage to Hefeng hall. "


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief and was turning to leave, but she felt that she was uncomfortable with Xianglan''s words and thought carefully, "sister, now you and my sisters know each other, don''t call yourself a slave? That sounds awkward. "


    Xianglan whispered, "how does this make me your personal maid in front of people. The number of rites must not be abolished. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "I haven''t seen the eldest lady of hyacinth walking around the Marquis house as a childe for more than ten years, but no one cares; You and I are just sisters. Where do we ignore etiquette? Don''t think about it yet. I''ll deal with it. I''ll go and see Xiaobai first. "


    Xianglan Fu was about to say "promise". Seeing Zhuo Xi''s eyes, he changed his mouth, straightened his chest and said with a smile, "OK."


    Zhuo Xi ran all the way to the Hefeng hall in the south. When he looked up, he saw that the curved moon sprinkled silver white brilliance on the ground, and the snow was still floating fine, reflecting fine and dense light in the moonlight. When she breathed, a faint white fog floated in the moonlight. It''s the end of recent years. Think about how many things have happened since I came here for half a year. She walked while thinking, but she nearly crossed the road several times. Since the renovation of the three buildings, the rockery, gravel and garden path on the ground have almost been redesigned. Furong house is a little away from Hefeng hall. Fengxin just moved to Hefeng hall alone. Why do you just take Xiaomeng? Taking Xiao Meng is tantamount to taking Xiao Bai. And she remembered what hyacinth said before she died. She wanted Xiaobai''s snake gall?! She thought of Xiaobai and ran wildly under her feet.


    When he arrived at Hefeng hall, he saw Meng carrying a bucket of water and struggling to go to the room. Zhuo Xi came forward and called him, "how can you take such heavy water? Where are those rough women? "


    Seeing that it was Zhuo Xi, Xiao Meng said with a happy smile, "sister hyacinth said I was a man and I had to do my own things. We moved to our new house today. Xiao Meng didn''t want to bother others, so he moved a bucket of water to clean the windowsill himself. After all the other places were cleaned, there was only the windowsill. "


    "What about Xiaobai? Where is it? " Zhuo Xi helped him carry the water to the room, grabbed his hand and asked.


    "Sleeping there." Meng pointed to the big Kang. "It''s warm on the Kang. Sister hyacinth said that if Xiaobai sleeps on the big Kang all winter, it won''t have to hibernate."


    Zhuo Xi walked to the big Kang in two steps and opened the quilt. Sure enough, he saw Xiaobai sleeping soundly. He didn''t see him for many days. He seemed to be fat again.


    "Xiao Meng, did sister hyacinth ask you for Xiaobai?"


    "No, Xiaobai hid away when he saw the wind. But... "


    Zhuo Xi became nervous, "but what?"


    "She asked me to feed Xiaobai some pills. She said it was just to let it vomit. It was harmless to her body."


    Zhuo Xi jumped up, "what?"


    "I just hope it spits out its bile without killing it. Don''t you thank me? " A voice sounded from behind.


    "You crazy woman, thanks to your imagination, do you treat a small animal like this?" Zhuo Xi jumped up, jumped on the hyacinth and was about to pinch her neck. Meng looked at them admiringly. He didn''t know whether he worshipped Zhuo Xi or hyacinth.


    Hyacinth Hun didn''t care and gently pulled her hand off. "If not, how can he completely detoxify the Lord?"


    "Find another one. Don''t think about Xiaobai!"


    "I walked all over the snow field in the warmest time of spring and summer, and I couldn''t find any. Now it is late winter, and snakes have long hibernated. The fragrance of heavenly cold on Lord Hou expired on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. Under the effect of the hundred poison pills you gave him, his birth was delayed for a month. But calculate this time, it will be Shangyuan Festival at the latest. " The hyacinth said expressionless.


    "Expiration? What happens when it expires? "


    The hyacinth was still a lilac gown. She raised her hand, straightened her cuffs, and dusted the nonexistent dust. "Tianhan incense is called the four great poisons in the world together with that day''s blood incense, Tianqing incense and Tianjiao incense. You have seen tianxuexiang. The poisoned person will spit blood within a column of incense until all the blood spits out and dies. Tianqingxiang, on the contrary, the poisoned person''s blood will slowly seep out from every pore of the human body. When seeping out, it will itch hard, and it will seep for a whole year. The poisoned person feels the fear of loss of life in the strange itch all the time. Tianhan incense is also opposite to Tianjiao incense. Tianjiao incense will burn people from inside to outside in a column of incense, while Tianhan incense will gradually freeze people into icemen within a year. "


    So, she just felt his hands cold, not because of the snow? He came to hold her at night, not because she couldn''t sleep, but because of her big Kang? She suddenly felt that there seemed to be an ice needle in her heart, which instantly spread the cold to all parts of her body, and her teeth began to tremble with cold.


    "Now senior brother is your man, and Xiaobai is also your snake. Choose whether you want a snake or Xiaobai. But don''t hesitate too long. There are still 18 days before Shangyuan Festival. " The hyacinth patted her on the shoulder and turned to leave.


    Qumeng had understood. He knew he couldn''t express his opinion, so he had to jump on the bed and hold Xiaobai tightly.


    Zhuo Xi''s tears fell out and rushed forward to grab the hyacinth''s sleeve. "Isn''t there any other way?"


    "You are also an expert in detoxification, and Xiaobai is an expert among experts. I don''t believe it didn''t tell you? When I found Xiaobai''s existence, I told my senior brother at the first time that he asked me to get the medicine introduction as far as possible without harming Xiaobai. If he wants to get the medicine guide, he can easily get it with one knife, but he doesn''t allow it. He''s not for Xiaobai, but for you. So I tried my best, but now I''ve tried everything I should try. Every time it spits seven meat and eight vegetables, it always spits out the bile together with the venom at the mouth of its teeth. I''ve tried my best. Leave the antidote to you. "


    Zhuo Xi wiped away her tears and suddenly her eyes brightened, "you must have a way, don''t you? Otherwise, why did you let qumeng move here with you? "


    The hyacinth threw away her hand, "I asked qumeng to move here, not for Xiaobai, but for you."


    "For me?"


    "If you don''t want Xianglan to find out that qumeng is her brother, or you don''t want her to know that you''re not really the eternal word order Lord?"


    "What?" The rhythm jumped too fast, and Zhuo Xi didn''t keep up with his ideas for a moment.


    When Meng Yi heard about himself, he came over and asked in a low voice, "sister Zhuo Xi, is sister Xianglan really my sister?"


    "Xiao Meng, have you ever seen such a thing?" Zhuo Xi took out the jade bone order.


    "This is my sister''s and father''s!" Go to Meng and cry, "sister Zhuo Xi, where are they? Where have they gone? "


    "Xiao Meng, they, they are gone. Don''t be sad. Your sister asked me to live for her before she died. In the future, sister Zhuo Xi will be your sister. Although you have lost your father and sister, you will have many more sisters and brothers to care about you and take care of you. "


    Meng was already out of breath, and the letter reminded him, "Xiao Meng, don''t you also have a jade dominoes? Will you show it to your sister? "


    Qumeng obediently pulled out a rope from his neck. Zhuo Xi saw that it was indeed the same material, but the patterns on it were slightly different from the transparent patterns. The hyacinth said, "I have already discovered his identity. His piece is Chang Zi Ling. It''s safe to go to Bangladesh now. Don''t worry about living with me. As for the family blood, whether you want to know them or not and how to know them are up to you. "


    Feng Xin said to Meng, "Xiao Meng, this dominoes is very important to you. You''re still young. It''s bad if you lose it. Let sister hyacinth keep it for you? "


    Went to Meng and stayed for a while, "good is good. But my father told me that in the future, a brother will recognize me with the same dominoes. "


    "Well, my sister will help you pay attention. Xiao Meng has a sister now and will have a brother in the future. Xiao Meng is not alone. "


    "Yes!" Go and nod.


    "Well, little Meng, go wash and sleep."


    Go, Meng darling. The hyacinth stood up and, contrary to the tenderness just now, said to Zhuo Xi with a cold face, "it''s cold. Go back quickly. The lotus residence is for you. Don''t let the elder martial brother get cold, and don''t make him sad again. "


    "Is there really no other way?"


    "Yes. Exchange Xiaobai''s life for his life. "


    Zhuo Xi trembled in her heart and couldn''t tell her feelings, so she had to go back slowly. She thought of the snowy day. He squatted in Feiyu Zui Yuxuan for an afternoon. When he left, he heard the faint cough from the study, and the pace of walking back unconsciously accelerated.

 Chapter 54

    Returning to Furong house with a cold mood, Jing Yuan is not in the room. Zhuo Xi thought and was about to return to linyue Pavilion again, but she heard something upstairs. So she walked up lightly and found someone bathing in the bathroom of the house where the hyacinth lived. She stood for a moment, heard the coughing from time to time inside, took a deep breath, and went downstairs again. Although it is a cold winter, Zhuo Xi still keeps the good habit brought by her previous life and takes a shower every day since she has this convenient bathroom. When she came out of the shower, she found a person lying in bed. Jing Yuan half leaned on the Kang and saw her come out. He opened a corner of the quilt and said hello with a smile, "madam, my husband has warmed the Kang for you. Come up quickly."


    Zhuo Xi slowly put down the long hair on her head, opened it and was drilled in by the corner. Perhaps it was because of this that he brought in the cold, and he coughed twice. Zhuo Xi pretended to ask casually, "why, have you been cold?"


    He didn''t hide it from her, "I stood outside your elegant Pavilion for too long in the afternoon. I didn''t expect it to snow."


    "Why do you come here in a hurry? I''ve been standing all afternoon. I''m very excited. Is the play good? "


    He was a little chatty. "Recently, the cable newspaper said that the people of the prison Yuanmen were active in Kyoto, and Jianrong was not with you. I''m afraid..." he coughed for a while, and the rest of the students were held in his chest.


    "If so, isn''t it exactly what you want?" Zhuo Xi said coldly.


    "What are you talking about?" He didn''t understand what she meant.


    "When are you going to hide it from me?" Zhuo Xi looked into his eyes, bright and clear.


    He lowered his eyes. "Do you know?"


    She sneered, "hehe, I should have known that at first you left me not because of my medical skills, but because of Xiaobai. Yes or no? "


    He mumbled his lips, unable to deny, "yes."


    "Later, you found out that I regarded it as a treasure, and the hyacinth was not around. I was afraid I couldn''t willingly offer Xiaobai''s life to make an antidote for you, so you talked sweetly and asked to marry me, didn''t you?"


    He instinctively wanted to deny it, but when he thought about the initial situation, he found that he could only answer "yes" for a long time.


    "Then the wind came. At first you didn''t know he was a daughter, but you still let him live on the first floor with me, but you never objected. It was also tacitly accepted that he was waiting for an opportunity to get close to Xiaobai, didn''t you?"


    He did not dare to look at her directly. He turned and lay on his back. His face was miserable. He continued for her, "yes. When I see that I can''t get married once, I slowly grind with your ears and manes. When I ask for marriage twice, I always hope that one day you can move your heart for me and save me with white. I also deliberately let the wind tell you that I can''t last for a few days. Let you make a quick decision. Do you want me or Xiaobai? You are so hard hearted that I can''t warm you by all means. I knew the answer long ago. "


    "You lied to me. You just want Xiaobai. It''s just a snake. You have countless opportunities to take its life. Why do you have to pay for my willingness? "


    He was silent for a moment before he said slowly, "because you said it was your life."


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. He coughed and then said, "how can I take your life with my own hands? Take your life. Do you think I can live? "


    Unable to see his eyes, Zhuo Xi only looked flat at his Adam''s apple. Seeing that his Adam''s apple kept rolling and kept suppressing the cough that was going to seize the cavity, he couldn''t help but have a sour nose and was afraid of being seen by him, so he had to stretch out his arm and bury his face in his chest. But in this way, it became more and more obvious to feel his cautious breathing and strong self repressive trembling.


    With a long sigh, he stretched out his arm and hugged her tightly. After a long time, she asked, "what day does she say I can live?"


    "Shangyuan Festival." She said stiffly.


    "You must know she''s talking nonsense. After the Shangyuan Festival, I will go to Liangzhou. I will clear all the constraints there and come back to pick you up. Only in Liangzhou can I give you all the freedom you want. " He still clearly remembered her glint when she said "no parents'' life, no pressure of kingship". Could the place where he had escaped for five years really become a place of freedom for him and her?


    "Is she really talking nonsense?"


    "Really, I punished Jianrong today. She must be avenging him. You see, I''m just a little cold and a little cough. There are 18 days left for Shangyuan Festival. How can I only have 18 days? "


    "Do you still want to marry me?"


    "My silly girl, I''ve been thinking about how to marry you all the time."


    "What about Wang Jialin?"


    "I said I wouldn''t marry her."


    "Then I''ll be the junior who destroys other people''s marriage. I hate junior."


    "You didn''t break other people''s marriage. I had only an engagement with her, but no marriage."


    "That''s also Xiao San."


    "Xi''er, you asked me for a reason that day. The countless reasons I said are not what you want in your heart. Every day after that, I wonder what is the reason you want to marry. Now I finally understand that the reason is that I love you. "


    The next morning, Zhuo Xi was still asleep and the door was kicked open. Jing Yuan, who was lying inside, was startled and angrily said, "hyacinth, what are you crazy about?"


    "Hum, elder martial brother, you have a good sleep here, but you let the man kneel in the yard all night. You are so cruel." Hyacinth is angry.


    I came to him¡° Let''s go outside and say. " Jing Yuan carefully tucked in the quilt corner, gently pulled out the arm under her head, moved her muscles and bones, and got out of bed¡° I thought you wouldn''t even look at him when he knelt to death. Why, it hurts? "


    "Hum, I''m just afraid he''ll be killed by you accidentally. There''s no place for my revenge."


    "Is it revenge or gratitude? But I heard you say before you die, "if you don''t hate him, you have to thank him." Jing Yuan said teasingly.


    The hyacinth looked at him angrily, "what are you doing eavesdropping? As you said, that''s what you said before you died. Now that I''m not dead, those last words don''t count. Hum, I will settle with him one by one, one by one. I don''t care. I''ll torture him day by day until my anger disappears. "


    Jing Yuan looked at her with a smile, but he couldn''t speak.


    The hyacinth shot a cold arrow in his eyes, "Why are you looking at me like that?"


    "If Shifu knew that one day the famous Fengxin childe, his proud closed door disciple, could look like such a daughter, would he get up from the ground?"


    "Then go and ask the master about him first!" Hyacinth fought against him like the wind, but they were the same school, had the same martial arts skills, and were equally skilled. For a moment, they were inseparable. Finally, Jing Yuan stopped with her and said breathlessly, "well, for the sake of my only 18 days to live, there is a truce."


    The hyacinth laughed. "Did she believe it?"


    "How can she not believe you frightening her so much?"


    "If she believes it, it means she has you in her heart, and care is chaos."


    "But I told her you were lying to her. You''re taking revenge on us. "


    "What?! "How dare you..." said the hyacinth, and he wanted to fight with him again.


    "Well, well, I promise to marry you to him, okay?!" Jing Yuan shouted.


    The hyacinth frowned, "who wants to marry him?!"


    "If you don''t marry him, are you really going to enter the palace?" Jing Yuan moved his shoulder bones, went straight to the table in front of the window, sat down and poured a glass of water.


    "The king hasn''t given up yet?"


    "Hehe, he hasn''t stopped sending people to inquire about your whereabouts since you appeared on the stage that day. I''m afraid he''ll never think of it until he dies. The gorgeous beauty he''s looking for is actually a hyacinth childe who has heard of the changing scenery in the Jianghu. But I''m curious. According to your temperament, you really don''t want to go into his harem and stir him up? You promised Zhuo Xi to go on the stage, not just to thank her for helping you drive Yao Yao away? "


    The hyacinth shrugged. "I was going to take this opportunity to dress up as a beauty and go to the palace, but," she said sadly, "man is not as good as heaven!" She looked up at the sky, her eyes floating to the North - that''s where the linyue Pavilion is, but her hands involuntarily caressed her abdomen.


    She got up and wanted to go, then turned around, "by the way, speaking of Yao Yao, I have to remind you that she likes to take a bath on the third floor best. You must be careful. Before you fall in love with me, she keeps saying that she is the future Marquis and wife. "


    Jing Yuan, with a black face, waved to a dark guard, "go and tell Lao Zhou to send a woman to guard Furong house. Yao Yao and dogs are not allowed in."


    As the hundred day banquet of the seven Prince Jing Huan coincided with the day before New Year''s Eve, the king waved his big hand and simply postponed it for one day, which was held together with the palace banquet on New Year''s Eve. Originally, only men can attend the palace banquet on New Year''s Eve. In this way, both men and women are happy.


    Zhuo Xi was very melancholy all day. She specially asked Meng to hold Xiaobai. She had been staring at Xiaobai for a long time and didn''t think of a way to have the best of both worlds. Even Jianrong limped to her and asked her what it meant when the building was empty. She didn''t care and randomly pointed out a direction for him to find it. Xiaobai is her life-saving benefactor and true friend. She can''t exchange Xiaobai''s life for Jingyuan''s life anyway. But she can''t watch Jing Yuan die with poisoned hair. So I had to hold her hair here.


    When Xianglan came in, what she saw was her ghost appearance. She pulled up the screaming Zhuo Xi, held her down before dressing up, combed her official bun, put on her official hat, put on her imperial dress, pushed and pushed her to the carriage that had been waiting outside.


    When she got to the gate of the palace, she followed Jing Yuan to get off the bus. Zhuo Xi was surprised to find that there was a long line outside the gate of the palace. She saw several familiar faces in the line. She thought for a moment and slowly walked up to the ceremony. "Grandmother, mother, brother, this is..." she looked at Wu Xing. He hurried forward and whispered, "six younger sisters, you grew up in biezhuang and haven''t seen your father yet? This is your father. " She raised her eyes and looked at the "father". Her face was white, with a short beard. She blessed her body, "father." Wu Zhilian, um, nodded. Zhuo Xi knew that he was just perfunctory, so she didn''t care too much. The lady who didn''t know the truth asked kindly, "yuan''er, I haven''t seen you come back to the house for a long time. How are you? "


    She came forward, took Mrs. Tai''s hand and said, "grandma, I''m all right. But are you in good health? Is sleep safe? "


    Mrs. Tai said happily, "I''m all right, all right. After today''s Palace Banquet, why don''t you go back to Wu mansion with us to celebrate the new year? It''s a pity that I haven''t spent the new year with my family for so many years. I don''t know... "Before he finished, Jing Yuan coughed in front.


    Wu Xing reacted and quickly made things right. "Grandma, six younger sisters are now on duty in Hou''s house. How can they say they can go home when they go home? Seeing that the sixth sister looks so good, it can be seen that the Marquis takes good care of the sixth sister. Although it is new year''s Eve, the Wu family still has children and grandchildren around their knees. But the Marquis can''t be too cold. " He turned to Jing Yuan and gave a military salute from a distance. Wu Zhilian nodded at him and said hello. Wu Xing said to Zhuo Xi, "six younger sisters, don''t let the Marquis wait for a long time. You go first."


    Zhuo Xi is eager to go and bless her. Seeing Zhuo Xi''s imperial dress, the eldest lady Liu reluctantly returned a gift and showed a stiff smile. Zhuo Xi had no time to guess her thoughts, turned and walked towards Jing Yuan. Hearing that the madam behind happily whispered with another lady in front of the team, "old sister, that was my sixth daughter of the Wu family just now. Although she hasn''t grown up around us for many years, she is really a sensible child."


    The lady said in surprise, "is that the seven grade waiter of the Marquis of Guang''an? It''s said that she also manages the clothing shop for the Queen''s mother. The things in the shop are not only novel and beautifully made, but also heard, "she whispered close to the old man," it''s really making a lot of money for the Queen''s mother... "


    Another lady also came over and said, "old sister, your family doesn''t say that ruer and Jiao, who have just reached the hairpin, even the married two legitimate daughters, are not qualified to attend such a feast. Unexpectedly, it''s this common woman..."


    The old lady smiled, "she really earned face for our Wu family. Liu Shi, you... "


    Zhuo Xi in the back couldn''t hear it, but she could imagine how ugly Liu''s face was.

 Chapter 55

    Walking closer, Jing Yuan took her directly into the palace gate through the special channel for Royal relatives.


    Zhuo Xi followed Jing Yuan to the waiting place in the inner palace. He asked her to sit for a while, waiting for the Queen''s call, and then walked away. After a while, Jing Yuan brought an 11-year-old girl over, "Xi''er, this is Luo Yuan, and her mother is long sister Jing Mo Wang Changji."


    Zhuo Xi quickly got up and saluted, "how''s Jun Ji''an."


    Luo Yuan stretched out her hand and gave her a hand. "Wu Yi is very polite."


    Jing Yuan said, "Yuan Er, you bub are too outsider. If you don''t mind, you can call her sister zhuoxi. Xi''er, elder sister told me that she was ill and cultivated in the mansion. Yuan''er is naughty. You should help me watch her at today''s banquet. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded. Weifu sent him away. When he looked up, he was seeing Luo Yuan spit out his tongue towards his back. The small face carved with powder and jade was very cute. Seeing Zhuo Xi look up at her, he immediately smiled again and tried to pretend to be solemn.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and stared at her face carefully. "Jun Ji is indeed a descendant of the Tianjia family, a lady of the family, with unique advantages and outstanding temperament, but..."


    Luo Yuan was used to the compliments of others. How could he hear this argument? He couldn''t help but wonder, "but what?"


    "But I think there''s something missing on your face."


    She was surprised, "what''s missing?"


    "A little less brilliant smile." Zhuo Xi said with a smile and pointed to her cheek, "Oh, just like me.".


    Luo Yuan immediately laughed, "sister is so interesting."


    "Sure enough, when Jun Ji smiled, the world lost its color."


    Luo Yuan laughed more happily.


    A cool voice came from the side, "what a flatterer. Girls should have been dignified. Jun Ji is not the laughing women in the song and dance studio. Naturally, she doesn''t need to laugh all day. "


    Zhuoxi saw Wang Jialin holding a lady and coming over with a girl next to her. Wang Jialin looked at her as if she was going to eat her. She shrugged. Judging from the identity of Mrs. Hou of Guang''an in the future and what happened in Feiyu zuiyuan last time, it was natural for her to want to eat her. So she said with a smile, "the scenery of Ji Jiyue in the county is naturally not comparable to that of a dusty woman. Smile is the basic expression of a person''s happy mood. Smile is comfortable, and laughter can prolong life. Such a good instinct, I do not know how to distinguish between high and low? I don''t know how Miss Wang connects the two. Can it be said that as long as Miss Wang smiles, she will think of those smiling singers? "


    "Hahaha, sister zhuoxi is right. Smiling is everyone''s instinct. If everyone wants to keep a straight face, isn''t there only indifference between people? "


    Wang Jialin''s face was so angry that she threw a Jiao at the lady next to her, "aunt..."


    It turns out that there is this relationship.


    Luo Yuan hurriedly saluted the lady, "aunt." She said hello to the girl next to her, "cousin." For Wang Jialin, there was no expression at all. Zhuo Xi immediately had a much better impression of Luo Yuan.


    It seems that the lady in front of her is another long princess, that is, Wang Changji Jingqian. Zhuo Xi recalled the list that Jing Yuan had just given her in the carriage. She couldn''t help feeling that Wang Jialin was also Wang Changji''s daughter, but she didn''t know which God she had offended because of her mother''s death. She didn''t even have the title of Jun Ji. There was no name of Guang''an Hou''s fiancee.


    She smiled and saluted Jing Qianfu, "say hello to Wang Changji and Yanling County Ji."


    Wang Changji Jingqian raised her hand, motioned her to get up and asked, "are you the sixth girl of the Wu family? The one who works in the Marquis of Guang''an? "


    "It''s the little girl." Zhuo Xi smiled and sang.


    "Laughter is always taboo by ladies. Even if you really laugh, you should find a place where there is no one. But listening to what you just said and venting your laughter reaction will help your health? "


    "People''s limbs and viscera are closely related to their mood. People''s sorrow will make the Qi in the five zang organs out of tune and the auxiliary match not smooth; On the contrary, people''s joy helps to eliminate evil fire and unblock stagnation. Laughter can directly spread fire poison and smooth Qi and blood, so that all diseases will not occur and stubborn diseases can be eliminated. And physical health can also react on people''s mood and make people feel happy; On the contrary, people will follow the pain. The little girl believes that the eldest princess should have this experience. If she really laughs at something happy, she will be happy in body and mind. "


    Wang Jialin said coldly, "Oh, according to this, if a person is ill, he can heal without medicine as long as he laughs a few times?"


    Upon hearing this stupid sour word, Jing Qian couldn''t help but pull his arm out of Jiayao''s hand.


    "Nature has no such immediate effect. But it is not a day''s work to prolong life. If you can be diligent in exercise, happy with Pepsi and laugh freely, you won''t come to the door at will. "


    Su Yanling smiled and nodded, "this is quite reasonable. Mother, Doctor Wu once said so. In the future, if you have any pleasure, don''t hold it in your heart. You must say it so that everyone can have fun. "


    "Everything in this world is easy to know and difficult to do." Jing Qian sighed, walked forward slowly, grabbed Luo Yuan''s hand and asked, "why didn''t you see your mother?"


    "When I returned to my aunt, my mother had a headache recently. She couldn''t see anyone shouting, so she sued the king and queen for leave."


    Just then, a palace man came out, "Chang Ji Wang, two county concubines, Wu Yishi, and the queen announced you to enter."


    Seeing that she didn''t report her name, Wang Jialin couldn''t save face. She stepped forward and asked, "aunt, I..."


    Jing smiled and asked, "aunt he, can you let Jiayao go in with me?"


    Aunt he said with a smile, "of course, Chang Ji Wang, please."


    Entering the inner palace, a group of people gathered around a child to amuse him. It was today''s little birthday seven Prince Jing Huan. Zhuo Xi swept it at will, and most people didn''t recognize it. However, at the top of the center of the hall sat a glowing old lady, the Empress Dowager who appeared on the day of the auction.


    Sure enough, Wang Changji Jingqian led his nieces to the ceremony and said that she was the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager took a group of granddaughters and loved them. Zhuo Xi was not a relative of the royal family. It was not easy to see the ceremony with them, so she had to wait aside. Instead, sun Yao saw her and asked her to come forward, "girl, come and meet my huan''er."


    She hurried forward, "Empress Dowager Jin''an, the queen is blessed. This is a small gift for the seven princes. Please don''t dislike it. " She handed over a small basket that she had been carrying in her hand.


    Su Mei took the things and handed them to sun Yao with a wink. Sun Yao strangely picked up one and shook it, but it could also make a rattling sound. Immediately, she attracted the attention of the small ball held in the nurse''s hand, and stretched out her hand to hold it towards her mother.


    Su Mei said in surprise, "girl, what is this, so interesting?"


    "It''s just some children''s toys. This is called Chicken pecking rice. "


    The nurse had already put the small ball close to sun Yao. Sun Yao stuffed the toy handle into his hand. He shook it indiscriminately. The five chickens on the small board in the small room pecked one after another like someone gave orders, making a rattling sound. The little prince danced with joy.


    The old lady was happy. "Look what else? Give it to him! "


    Su Mei took out another rattle from the basket. A simple jigsaw puzzle and some building blocks were all small wooden toys, which were polished very smooth. Sun Yao said in surprise, "this little toy is very fresh. How does this square toy play? " She hasn''t seen building blocks, but she doesn''t know their usefulness.


    Zhuo Xi put the building blocks on one side of the table, built them and explained them. One is a bungalow, another is a castle, another is a table, and another is a cart. People have never seen so many standard geometric figures, and they don''t know the endless changes in them. Everyone is very surprised.


    The old lady was so happy that she couldn''t close her mouth. "These gadgets are really wonderful. If Xiao Huan made trouble from childhood, he must be a little smarter than ordinary children."


    Zhuo Xi replied, "Empress Dowager''s insight, these toys are called educational toys, which are very helpful for children''s intellectual development."


    Sun Yao smiled brightly. "This must be huan''er''s favorite hundred day gift. This palace is willing to thank miss huan''er for her."


    "You''re welcome, madam. These are worthless gadgets. There is a carpenter in Hou''s house who loves to study such children''s gadgets. If he has a new invention in the future, the little girl will send someone to the palace to enjoy it for the seven princes. "


    Jing Qian also chuckled, "such an interesting thing, how can a girl only honor the seven princes? I''ll exchange this little jade pendant with you and make more. How about playing with my family''s children? "


    Zhuo Xi quickly waved her hand and saluted the crowd. "Chang Ji Wang praised how these children''s gadgets are worth your jade pendant. I''ll ask the carpenter to make more sets and send them to your family when I go back. If you have children at home, you can also let me know. "


    "Hahaha, he is a clever man." The Empress Dowager was very happy, and everyone was also very happy. Other life women with children in their families also begged her one after another. Zhuo Xi began to respond one by one. In the end, Zhuo Xi looked embarrassed, and her face was almost wrinkled into a bitter gourd.


    Wang Jialin, who looked sour at one side, immediately realized that she would not miss this opportunity and immediately said loudly, "these are elders with at least three grades or more. They ask you for some gadgets. You don''t want to do it. How can you make such an ugly face?"


    The scene was cold for a while, and the Empress Dowager was also quite unhappy. I don''t know whether it was because of Wang Jialin''s bad scenery, or she really thought Zhuo Xi shook her face.


    Zhuo Xi still had a bitter gourd face and said to the empress dowager, "the Empress Dowager''s mirror is small and dull. She has the worst memory. Except for the Queen''s mother and daughter who had to see the sky, the others met for the first time. Not to mention which lady has several CHILDES and county girls in her family. Just what kind of toys you ladies said you want, the little girl forgot to listen. In fact, she can''t remember ten heads. Empress dowager, you are so compassionate that you don''t want to see your little head explode. Please help me ~ "


    The people laughed and the Empress Dowager understood. She said to Su Mei with a smile, "Su Mei, you are the most familiar person in the house. Please write down the list for Miss Wu first, and then send it to her house to see if she dares to forget?"


    Su Mei smiled and asked the maid to get the pen and ink.


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed, "thank the Empress Dowager for her kindness. Aunt Xie Su wrote. "


    Su Mei got the pen, black silk and silk. She really gave a human ceremony, so she sat down on a small round table and carefully registered. The ordered women gathered around to register, afraid that they might miss their own share.


    The Empress Dowager saw that people had spread out, so she waved Zhuo Xi forward and whispered, "Miss Wu, the medlar chrysanthemum tea you sent last time has calmed down a lot, and her hands and feet seem much stronger than before. It''s almost finished... "


    Zhuo Xi immediately answered, "empress dowager, if you don''t mind, you can call me Zhuo Xi. It''s really an honor for you to like this tea. Recently, my daughter added some red dates and rock sugar to this tea. The taste is slightly better than before, and it also helps you replenish blood and beauty. The little girl has brought some. I''m afraid if people''s eyes and ears, she will put them on the carriage outside the palace and ask someone to bring them later. "


    "Oh, hey, I''m so old. What do you want to replenish blood and beauty. You little girl, I''m afraid this tea is not prepared for me? " The Empress Dowager''s face has become a flower.


    Zhuo Xi looked left and right. Although the Empress Dowager was over 50, she was well maintained, just like in her forties¡° Empress dowager, your charm is not reduced. Where are you getting old? The last time the little girl saw the Empress Dowager blushing, it must be caused by liver deficiency and fire. Now, after drinking this tea for a period of time, her complexion is normal and her liver fire must have been eliminated. Therefore, the little girl dares to recommend this red jujube Qiju tea, which can not only dispel fire and brighten her eyes, but also replenish qi and blood. Sufficient Qi and blood leads to vigorous spirit, and vigorous spirit leads to good health. "


    "How can mother enjoy this strange tea alone?" A voice came in.


    "Keep your voice down and be careful to be heard by the wolf women again. You little hoof, how can good things be less than you? " The Empress Dowager Bai Liaojing took a shallow look and whispered to Chao zhuoxi, "turn back and send some to this girl and Jing Mo''s house."


    Zhuo Xi smiled.

 Chapter 56

    At this time, a palace official came in and reported, "report to the Empress Dowager and queen. The banquet hall is ready. Please move your seat."


    The Empress Dowager nodded and a group of people went to the banquet hall. Na Luoyuan County Ji liked Zhuo Xi very much and kept chattering around her.


    At the banquet hall, Zhuo Xi was stunned when she saw the scene. Rao was that she had seen a hundred tables of banquets in her previous life. The banquet hall is divided into an inner hall and an outer hall. There are nearly 20 tables in the inner hall, divided into men and women, and a circular stage in the middle. It seems that song and dance performances and other programs are arranged. The outer hall is outside. Although the heavy snow stopped yesterday and the palace people in the whole field worked hard to clean the snow, it is still cold. Zhuo Xi looked around. Crows were full outside. It was estimated that there were at least 200 tables. Those people are probably quite experienced, wrapped in fur coats and covered with woolen hats. The relatives of the Wu family don''t know which corner of the outfield. But in the inner hall, Zhuo Xi was also in trouble. She didn''t recognize any of the other female officials in the palace. She only got the last table to wait for the waiter who arranged the seat to come.


    When Luo Yuanjun Ji came to her seat and took a seat, she found that Zhuo Xi, who had been around, had disappeared. She stood up and asked her to go and take a seat. Zhuo Xi looked restless, but saw Jing Qian nodding at her, and then hesitated to walk over. When she came near, she saw even Wang Jialin sitting at the table impolitely, and she sat down under the pull of Luo Yuan. Looking up, Jing Yuan was on the first big table opposite. The prince was also beside him, whispering with him, but his sight was evil. When Zhuo Xi thought of his joke, he didn''t know whether it was related to the frown of the queen. Sure enough, the next moment, Jing Yuan''s face was as gloomy as water. He said a few words with the prince, and the prince sat back in his seat.


    Soon the king came out and sat down with the Empress Dowager and the queen. The ritual officer began to sing the ceremony and sing praises to the effect that he congratulated both the seven princes and the new year on New Year''s Eve. The difficult parallel prose made Zhuo Xi''s eyes dizzy, but Luo Yuan shook her head. Finally, the long pre dinner song was finished. The king also made a short speech, and then announced "Congratulations with heaven". The outfielders had been waiting for tears for a long time. After the order, they began to eat happily. Inside the court are all princes and nobles. On the one hand, they take into account their face. On the other hand, they don''t have the cold and biting outside the court. Instead, they eat comfortably and comfortably. Seeing that the time was right, sun Yao said, "Sir, it''s Qi''s wish to keep a vigil on New Year''s Eve today. I have heard that there is auspicious omen in Southeast Yi County today. If you want to come next year, it must be good weather and people''s happiness. "


    All emperors like auspiciousness. After hearing this, the spirit came, "Oh? If so? What is the auspicious omen? "


    On the male guest''s table, a man stepped out, "the minister looked at the stars day and night. He saw that the giant gate star next to the purple emperor was looming, and the daughter of the star was Wang family. I also saw a fine star falling beside it, which is a sign of good luck from the sky. "


    "Jian Tian Si, if there is such a thing?"


    Another man stood up and replied, "yesterday, the Jiantian company did receive a letter from a flying pigeon in Southeast Yi County, saying that the Yi River was dry and there was light at the bottom of the river. People searched and got a bluestone, the texture of natural plum blossom was clear, the tentacles were heated up, and there were four big characters of harmony and unification in the letter. The magistrate of Yi county has sent people to send this stone to Kyoto, which can be reached in a few days. "


    After a little thought, Jing Tai was really in a good mood, "since there is such auspiciousness, how can we live up to the beautiful scenery on this auspicious day? Let''s call up some songs and dances so that everyone can have fun. " Some Kabuki soon came up on the middle stage. They danced with graceful posture and rhythm, which was very eye-catching.


    So I didn''t know which one began to discuss the farewell performance of the biography of the emperor of Wu that day. A few words of praise came to the main table. Mrs. Qin, who was sitting under the Queen''s head, had sharp ears and immediately started to say, "I heard that the legend of the emperor of Wu is wonderful and attractive, but I don''t know which expert''s script is. Why don''t you play it? Is it not that the troupe has provoked some official trouble and needs to stop to escape? "


    As soon as this word came out, some people''s eyes immediately focused on Zhuo Xi. After the auction, we all know that the biography of Emperor Wu is just a prelude to the auction. Since the auction has been successful, there is no need to keep the repertoire. Zhuo Xi was far away, and there was no roll call, so she pretended not to hear. Although the empress dowager, Queen and crown princess on the main table had seen the performance, they could not show it, so no one explained for a while. Seeing that the topic was cold and somewhat embarrassed, Mrs. Qin coquettishly said to Wang Shang, "Wang Shang, this new year''s festival, there are only some old words and tunes in the palace. I''m tired of reading them. Now that there is such a good play among the people, it''s better to invite them into the palace one day so that I can see these lonely people in the deep palace. No, it''s all red outside. My sisters and I don''t know what it is. It''s a joke for nothing. "


    Sun Yao couldn''t listen anymore. "Deep palace is lonely. What do you mean to say? Not to mention that the troupe is nowhere to be found, even if it is still there, the music department has its own rehearsal and selection of music in the palace. Where is any rural opera that can enter the palace and pollute the holy hearing in vain? "


    "Isn''t it? Sister Qin, who knows you are crazy about dancing? Which new song and dance in this palace didn''t premiere in your fiber dance Palace first? So you''re not satisfied? " A lady on the other side covered her mouth and smiled.


    Jing Tai enjoyed the rivalry between concubines and concubines very much. "Qiu''er, you don''t know her. She wants to net all the people who can dance in the world into her fiber dance palace. Most of those who came from theatrical troupes learned to dance since childhood, which naturally attracted her eyes. "


    "Sir, when I study dancing, don''t I try to offer it to you to make a smile? You make fun of me ~ "


    Sun Yao also said angrily, "sister Qin, this is your mistake. Your dance became famous before you entered the palace. After you entered the palace, only the king could watch it. Although you are naturally a bosom friend, it is said that there are beautiful things that should be enjoyed by others. It would be a pity if you always hide in the palace and enjoy them alone. "


    Jing Ti Da Le said, "Yao Er is very reasonable. Today''s mother is also here. It''s a great day to celebrate with heaven. Xian''er, why don''t you show your hand and let them enjoy it together, so that people don''t always say that few people monopolize it, ha ha. "


    Qin Xian''s face was not Yu. "Sir, there are many ministers and relatives outside the door..."


    Sun Yao said, "Sir, today is not only a palace banquet on New Year''s Eve, but also a hundred day banquet for huan''er. Although huan''er is still young, you can see that he is still staring, "she pointed to the seven princes held by the nanny, who are standing and staring at the song and dance." Sir, it seems that huan''er has really followed you. He has loved this song and dance instrumental music since he was a child. In the future, she doesn''t know how high his instrumental attainments are. "


    Jing Tai laughed, "xian''er, your dancing posture is much better than the mediocre fat and vulgar powder on this stage. Let them open their eyes. This room is full of people. Don''t care. Those outside, just far away. But they are lucky enough to enjoy the dancing of the lady from a distance. "


    The Empress Dowager has been happy to listen to them. At the moment, she saw Jing Tui''s expression and echoed, "that''s exactly the reason. Mrs. Qin, you can perform a good performance and let the mourners see your style of the first dance in the world."


    Mrs. Qin had to answer and go back to the harem to change her clothes.


    When others saw that the dispute was settled here, they began to switch off the topic and discuss other issues. Zhuo Xi listened to their discussion and couldn''t help looking at Sun Yao. Her face seemed proud. Is it just to make Mrs. Qin perform in public and humiliate her? But she actually performed according to the will of the Empress Dowager and the king, and there was no shame. She didn''t know what medicine sun Yao sold in the gourd. She glanced at Jing Yuan from a distance, and he shook his head suspiciously.


    After a while, all the dancers withdrew. A fresh and elegant piano sounded, and a red dancer entered the field lightly on the drum, with toes, soft waist and arms wrapped with colorful ribbons.


    "The best dancer in the world is really worthy of its reputation. It''s like swimming a dragon and dancing like a startling Hong. These eight characters are really used on my sister." Sun Yao sighed softly.


    All the life women at the bottom echoed and praised one after another.


    Sun Yao said, "however, my sister''s dancing posture is more soft than hard. I got a good man the day before yesterday. Although my dancing skills are not as unique as sister Qin''s in the world, they are also unique. If you are so interested, how about letting them cut and rub it? "


    Jingtai is seeing the rise, but there is no doubt, "accurate!"


    Another silk and bamboo sound and the original piano sound sounded gently, and the rhythm doubled, but it was very harmonious with the piano sound. On the stage, a woman in a light purple dress danced a soft sword, which made Luo Yuan marvel. "Sister Zhuo Xi, look, this woman is really unique. She dances a good sword, which makes people''s blood boil."


    Zhuo Xi was sleepy, so she missed the warm and soft Kang. Hearing this, he raised his eyes a little and felt that his body shape was familiar. After another look, he couldn''t help straightening up and looking at Jingyuan. He was also shocked. Zhuo Xi screamed. What is she doing here?


    Sun Yao approached Jing ti''s ear and said softly, "Sir, your children really follow you. You see, the prince and huan''er are deeply impressed by sister Qin''s dancing. " How can a prince compare with a child who has just completed a hundred days? Jing Ti immediately looked heavy and turned his eyes to the prince. Sure enough, he saw that he was so intoxicated that he didn''t even know which woman he was looking at. The Crown Princess saw that the king''s face turned heavy and looked along his line of sight. She was shocked. She quickly took over the wine tripod in his hand. Seeing that his face seemed to be flushed, she wiped it gently with her sleeve. The prince regained his mind and quickly took a bite of food. He didn''t dare to look up again.


    For a long time, the stage was rigid, soft, purple and red, and the end was perfectly matched. At the end of the song, the purple masked woman on the stage stood with her sword, and Mrs. Qin squatted. One was valiant and heroic, the other was full of tenderness, which attracted cheers.


    Sun Yao said with a smile, "Mr. Wang, you have seen this Purple Maple girl, but would you like to catch up with her?"


    Jing Tai looked suspiciously, "have you ever seen it?"


    "Purple Maple, there is no cover in front of you. Don''t let you see your true face? "


    The Purple Maple came forward and slowly untied the white yarn.


    "Wind...!" Despite the psychological preparation, Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and almost cried out. Purple Maple? crazy? Thanks to her coming up with the name.


    That''s right. This beautiful woman is the hyacinth. She is wearing a lilac elegant dress. Although she has a flowing cloud bun on her head, her hair ornament is simple. A purple hairpin is obliquely inserted on the left and right sides, which is simple and elegant. With her slightly powdered makeup, her cold eyes sweep the whole scene at will. The impression of an ice beauty is in the hearts of everyone all the time. Especially the king who never forgets her. Since he caught a glimpse of Hong at the last auction, he has been imagining how to subdue the woman when he found her. But the people he sent were about to turn Kyoto upside down. They couldn''t find her. She was like the world had evaporated. Unexpectedly, the queen found it.


    The queen coughed at his stupidity. Jing Tai woke up and hurriedly said, "since the queen has spent so much thought, how can I live up to her?" This words simply had too many meanings. Zhuo Xi trembled all over her. Mrs. Qin, standing aside, broke her silver teeth and looked iron faced. Originally, her home court was strongly intervened by one person, which has been very unhappy. Unexpectedly, the queen found such a beautiful woman and was also good at dancing. No one present did not understand this idea.


    "Miss Zifeng," Sun Yao was delighted, "please come forward and give me a seat."

 Chapter 57

    Seeing Qin Xian still standing in the center of the stage, Jing Tai also called her, "xian''er, you''re tired, and come and sit first."


    Qin Xian was so angry that he forgot to go back to the back palace to change his clothes. He blessed himself and walked directly from the hall to the main table. Unexpectedly, when passing by the prince, the prince suddenly stood up, stretched out his hand, took her hand, pulled back and hugged her. The crown princess was shocked and immediately stood up and grabbed her husband. Qin Xian''s reaction was also quite fast. He pushed away the prince''s arms with his backhand, and slapped the prince''s face with his other hand. The prince stumbled, fell on the table, pushed the cup to the ground, put his face on the table, and his eyes were half closed.


    The people were already surprised by this accident and lost god. The Crown Princess reacted quickly and immediately knelt down on the ground. "Sir, the crown prince, he doesn''t know whether he drank too much or was secretly plotted. Now God doesn''t know. Today''s move must not have been his intention. Please observe. "


    Jing Tai''s face was calm, "passed on to the imperial doctor."


    Qin Xian was so frightened that tears flowed. Wei said wrongly, "Sir, please let my concubine go back to the palace to change clothes first."


    Jing Tai waved his hand.


    The imperial doctor soon came, gave the prince a pulse, turned his eyelids, and then played, "go back to you, the prince has been poisoned by a kind of infatuation, and his name is like no fragrance. Those who are poisoned by this poison will be confused and are particularly sensitive to women''s body fragrance. They want to, want to


    ... "he couldn''t go on, but everyone knew what it meant.


    The crown princess still knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. "Ask the Empress Dowager for a clear lesson. The crown prince was not aware of this poison for a moment. He just didn''t mean to offend his wife."


    Sun Yao said coldly, "whether intentionally or unintentionally, they all collided with the concubines of the back palace, and it is inevitable to be punished. Empress dowager, your majesty, today''s Palace Banquet is handled by my concubine. Now this kind of thing is also my negligence. Please surrender. "


    The Empress Dowager slowly regained her consciousness and was out of breath, but after all, it was the prince who grew up. She had to say, "it''s important to save people first. Take him to my Ci''an palace for treatment. Wang Er, it''s up to you to decide the punishment. "


    In full view of the public, Jing Tui also had to say, "the queen was fined three months for her oversight. The prince lost his virtue and was banned for three months. He ordered the neifu to thoroughly investigate the matter within one month to see what the real murderer behind the scenes wanted. "


    No one could bear the anger of the son of heaven. Everyone in the room knelt on the ground. The crown princess was pale and shaky. This sentence "the prince loses virtue" will keep many people awake tonight.


    The Empress Dowager ordered the eunuch, the internal supervisor and others to help the prince return to Ci''an palace for diagnosis and treatment first. The princess, with a pale face, thanked the Empress Dowager and went out through the side door. The crowd outside couldn''t stand the cold. After the banquet, they slowly dispersed, so they didn''t know what happened here.


    But after this, the people in the inner palace didn''t want to get together again. Jing Ti waved his hand, and the five River prison nearby announced, "Xi San! Go back to each house to watch the night and pray for the prosperity of the country in the coming year. "


    The queen had already taken Miss Zifeng to the harem under the sign of Jing Tai.


    Zhuo Xi got up and followed Luo Yuan to go outside. Wang Jialin, who was walking behind, suddenly covered her stomach and said, "aunt, I have a stomachache. You go back to the house first, and I''ll come later. "


    Zhuo Xi said to Luo Yuan, "Jun Ji, I just promised the Empress Dowager to send a bag of tea. I''ll come right away. You go out of the palace with Wang Changji first. " Jing Qian on one side listened and said with a smile, "yes, the queen mother is looking forward to your red jujube Qiju tea."


    She blessed herself and went out first.


    Out of the door, she walked quietly to no one''s place. After several turns, she couldn''t see anyone. She complained secretly. She should have asked for directions before she came. Just after hesitation, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and covered her mouth. She was about to struggle and felt the familiar smell behind before she relaxed. Jing Yuan whispered, "you''re not familiar here. Come with me."


    Zhuo Xi walked with him and asked, "Why are you here?"


    "Whatever you want to do, I want to do the same. Naturally, I''m coming."


    They passed through the palace path silently, avoided some patrolling Imperial troops, took off and fell several times, and finally came to the door of a palace.


    Zhuo Xi whispered to him, "are you sure she''s here?"


    "Not sure. However, if brother Wang is a newly acquired beauty and he has not yet been granted the title, he is also embarrassed to do such a thing in the bedroom of other concubines, so he has to come to his own bedroom. "


    Jingyuan suddenly covered her ears. Zhuo Xi pulled it and listened carefully. There was a blushing and heartbeat moan in it. Not so soon


    A voice sounded coolly in the back, "you really know him. Knowing him so well, how could I not know where the antidote of Han Xiang was hidden that day? "


    Jing Yuan turned helplessly, "younger martial sister, don''t be so scary in the middle of the night, will you?"


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "ah Xin, you''re outside. Who''s that inside?"


    "What? You seem to wish I were in there? "


    "No, no, a Xin. I''m just curious. Tell me? "


    It''s hard for hyacinth to sell, "I won''t tell you first. It will be known in the future. "


    "But the king, he..."


    "There are many ways to make a person not argue between true and false."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "the prince? You too... "


    "Hum! This man suffered for himself. If he hadn''t hidden incense in the house, how could I have been poisoned by mistake last time? This great opportunity is in front of me. How can I miss it? "


    It was revenge. Remembering her last poisoning scene, Zhuo Xi immediately felt guilty and dared not speak. Fengxin noticed it and said with a smile, "why? Find yourself saving the wrong person? "


    Zhuo Xi begged for mercy, "sister a Xin, you also said it was saving. Since saving people, how could you save them wrong? Please, don''t mention it again, will you? "


    "No? What about the meat in my stomach without mentioning him? As soon as he exists, he reminds me of that day. I hate it. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly smoothed her hair, "sister, we are not angry. Being angry is easy to hurt the baby. Jianrong went to find you today, but you came to the palace. What should I do? "


    "Hum, let him find the ends of the earth!"


    Jing Yuan asked, "younger martial sister, when are you going to fool around? Let''s go back to the house first. "


    "No, elder martial brother, I have something to do here. You go back first. "


    Zhuo Xi stared, "what else do you want to do?"


    "Revenge, of course. You know, I will repay you for your kindness. "


    "What does the king have with you..." before she finished asking, Jing Yuan took her and flew to the eaves to hide in a dark place, and the hyacinth also flew to the other side.


    After a while, five rivers came from a distance, listened outside the palace for a while, and left again.


    Jing Yuan took Zhuo Xi and made a gesture to Fengxin, then flew away.


    Jing Yuan took her by the waist and jumped to the door of another palace. Zhuo Xi looked at the light and asked the slightly dilapidated palace, "where is this?"


    "This is the yongru palace where my mother lived. After she left five years ago, no one lived in it anymore. "


    They pushed open the heavy Palace door and entered the inner room. After closing the door, Jing Yuan lit the fire, and the weak light source shone on the once beautiful gauze curtain. All the furniture was there, and there was no shortage of things in the treasure Pavilion. Zhuo Xi reached out and touched it. The dust was not too thick. It can be seen that the former Emperor often ordered people to clean the house.


    "It was the residence of Xianru imperial concubine. What kind of person is she? " Zhuo Xi saw that his face began to show a sad look, and quickly started a topic to distract him.


    "My mother''s concubine is the first princess of Gelao nationality. In those years, there were many military disasters at the junction of Wuliang state and Gelao nationality. In order to seek peace, my mother''s concubine volunteered to come to Wuliang to make peace. She is very beautiful, especially loved by her father. The father and the king have many children, and the struggle between concubines and concubines will never stop. Although I ranked sixth, my father actually had a total of 13 sons, and only four or five survived as adults, not to mention the unborn child. Since I was a child, I had the cold in my mother''s womb. How much effort did the mother imperial concubine spend to bring me up. But I still don''t understand why she lives well in the inner courtyard of the cannibal palace. Why did she become seriously ill and die in her native home? "


    She couldn''t see things at night, so she could only slowly lead his clothes and grope in. When he got to the bedroom, Jing Yuan lit the palace lantern on one side, and Zhuo Xi slowly adapted to the light in the room. She looked around at random, and everything in the house was neatly packed, as if she were ready for a real trip. A large box was placed in the middle of the dressing table, which was not in harmony with the copper mirror and small jewelry box on one side. She looked at it at will, but she didn''t dare to do it at will. She just stopped for a while when she saw the red painted wooden box.


    Jing Yuan noticed her sight, smiled and said, "these are the little toys collected by the mother imperial concubine, which I played when I was a child. When I grow up, I sometimes suddenly think of where those playthings went before. Unexpectedly, they were hidden by the mother imperial concubine. "


    Zhuo Xi said in surprise, "are there all in such a big box? May I open it? "


    She is racking her brains to think of some novel toys to create high-end toys of Feiyu brand. Tonight''s 100 day banquet is a good start, but she still wants to refer to the types and types of toys of children in this era, so as not to be particularly eye-catching.


    Jing Yuan stretched out his hand to open the wooden box. Zhuo Xi looked carefully and was disappointed. They were all puppets and Trojans. Some colors were old. There was a dark red cloth tiger that looked fat and cute. She picked it up and looked carefully. "The stitches are fine and the shape is good." She praised and was about to put it back, but the cloth tiger was robbed by Jing Yuan¡° In my impression, this toy didn''t appear when I was a child. " He looked around and didn''t find it. He pinched it with his hand and immediately looked solemn. He found scissors in a sewing basket on one side and cut the cloth tiger in two or three times. There was a small red brocade bag hidden inside. He took it out. There was a letter and a small porcelain vase.


    After reading the letter, his hands trembled slightly, his eyes caught tears, took Zhuo Xi into his arms, put his head on her shoulder and closed his eyes. Zhuo Xi didn''t dare to speak. She only hugged him gently with her hand. She knew that he must know the truth of some facts. She was just excited temporarily.


    When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were awe inspiring. He let go of her and handed her the letter. "Look at it, and burn it after reading it."


    Zhuo Xi took it over and read it carefully. His heart was also shocked. After reading it, he quickly put it above the palace lantern and lit it. When it became ashes, he slowly put his hand into his palm. She knew that without comfort or persuasion, he would come out slowly by himself.


    For a long time, he said slowly, "it turned out that there was a fire and water between me and him. I have always been looking forward to clearing my old grudges and getting along well with him. After all, between brothers... He loved me in his early years... "


    Zhuo Xi hugged him tightly. "In this world, power is the biggest devil."


    "Although I was trapped in wansha city that day, self-protection was not a problem. Mother imperial concubine, why should she... "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and said, "although I don''t know what difficulties you were in that day, I know how a mother feels when she sees her son trapped in death. At that time, she was willing to die, even if it was a poison. "


    "Since I was a little girl, my mother has protected me from the wind, but because of my youth''s spirit, I want to break away from her umbrella and go to the army to experience and wander. But she didn''t want to die in this battle. Now, after my mother''s death, my father made me a general of the town and gave me the yin-yang talisman of 100000 soldiers in Liangzhou. I always thought that my father made compensation for me because he was ashamed of my mother''s wife, but I didn''t know that this was actually the talisman he gave me. Father, he knew...... "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him, "speaking of Xianwang, there''s one thing I forgot to tell you..."

 Chapter 58

    Most of the new year will be noisy. It''s the sound of gongs and drums on the morning of the new year. Lying in bed wondering for a long time, she remembered that at this time, I''m afraid no one knew about gunpowder, let alone artillery, so she had to play gongs and drums in the new year. She struggled to get up from bed. Jing Yuan had already gone out to loosen her muscles and bones. So Xiang Lan brought a basin of water to freshen her up.


    Zhuo Xi frowned and said, "sister, now the whole family knows that you are commensurate with my sister. When the Shangyuan Festival comes, you and I will be sworn in to the golden orchid, and you will go to Youzhou to take office. You don''t have to do these things. You should be busy. "


    Xianglan handed her a hot towel, "sister, don''t be polite to me. I remember what I should do. Today is Jingyan. I have to go out and ask me to replace her. Besides, I like watching you wash and eat. For many years, it''s not easy for me to find a relative. You are much younger than me. I want to hurt you more. "


    "What about surprised words? What can she do? " Zhuo Xi felt warm in her heart. Since she was a child, she had no pain and no love. Suddenly, a sister came out to boo and ask for warmth for her. Her heart was also hot.


    "She went to distribute food to the sisters of the feather gate. Last night, she was also very happy on her anniversary. "Everything is at the girl''s command." He had already seen that the girl would become the mistress of the Marquis house in the future.


    "That''s good. Please arrange it. According to the practice in previous years, one person will sing, one person will count and one person will share the reward."


    "Promise!" The three people answered, and the three hearts finally fell back into their stomach.


    When it was all over, the surprised speech came back. Zhuo Xi was tired all morning. She was lying on the imperial concubine''s chair to rest. When she came in, she joked, "do you know what you missed this morning?"


    "What?"


    "In the morning, everyone in Hou''s house received the red envelope again." Speaking of, where''s her red envelope? No, I have to ask Jing Yuan tonight.


    Surprised, he said, "didn''t you send it yesterday? Today again? "


    Zhuo Xi said bitterly, "I sent it to you yesterday, but today it''s from the marquis."


    "It''s really a pity. Can I ask the Marquis for a supplement?"


    "Well thought of you." Zhuo Xi said happily that she didn''t have it herself.


    Xianglan saw that she was empty handed and knew that nothing had been done. He said with a smile, "according to your foot journey, you should stroll from Kyoto to cangcui mountain?"


    "Where is the verdant mountain? I didn''t go to the verdant mountain, but I went through all the shops in Kyoto and didn''t find a shop open. "


    Zhuo Xi and Xiang Lan laughed, "you waste your time walking. Why don''t you go to the back kitchen and ask mother Wang to teach you how to make some delicious snacks."


    "But it''s not for nothing. I heard a child singing a song."


    "What ballad?"


    "Everyone envies her beauty. The crown prince leads her in public. The green hat in the depths of the palace is cut, and a red apricot comes out of the wall."


    Zhuo Xi sprayed the tea in the exit. Is it too red? The scandal at the palace banquet on New Year''s Eve was not seen by anyone outside except the relatives of the princes present. It seems that the prince is not popular on weekdays. He has been made up of ballads for a little thing, which will last forever.


    "Eh, what about Miss Yao Yao? Why didn''t you see her come over for the new year? " She wanted to talk about it and find fault. It''s better not to be so mean and tactful


    "Watch girl, I heard that the LORD sent someone to send her back to the Gelao family a few days ago."


    "Well, why?"


    Xianglan leaned close to zhuoxi''s ear and said, "I heard that Miss Yao was waiting for you all night in linyue Pavilion for several days. A few days ago, Hou Ye stayed in Furong house. On the third day, Zi Ran said that she found Miss Yao in my bed and returned... So I immediately ordered her to go back." Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. How hungry and thirsty is the girl?

 Chapter 59

    Jing Yuan is a little confused these days, but no one can apply. He knew that he should be happy. The beautiful woman was in the bedroom behind him. She was tangled and lingering every day. She almost didn''t get up until noon. But when I saw her in the daytime, I was always as cold as ice. I began to think that she was because she didn''t give her a title. When I mentioned it briefly, she was very angry. Even people with things were driven out. But at night, he felt her surprisingly enthusiastic. Although he didn''t recall once how the night began with her and ended with her, in short, his body and mind were happy and uncomfortable everywhere.


    Sun Yao is very comfortable recently. Those ladies come to invite Anshi every day and will no longer embrace Mrs. Qin like the stars and the moon. I won''t let the eunuch report that I''ve made another heartache at a critical time. It was said that the first two nights, she had repeated her old trick. It was said that the big supervisor was scolded twice, so she never sent a message to the king''s interest again. On the third day, Mrs. Qin said she was ill. Please have a good day in the future. Sun Yao saw the respectful wives Teng concubine sitting below. No one was proud anymore. She intuitively felt a sullen breath in her chest and relaxed for a long time.


    Thinking of Zifeng, she couldn''t help feeling proud. At the auction that night, she noticed that Wang was moved again when he looked at the Purple Maple on the stage showing a wolf like desire for possession. So the next day, she kept sending people to search for the girl''s whereabouts, but no one knew where she came from or where she went. She couldn''t help calling Zhuo Xi to ask for clarification, but she heard the palace man report that someone met Miss Zifeng in Shangyu square. When she asked, it was the gorgeous actor of that night, so she invited him in. Sun Yao was overjoyed, called her in, asked her about her, learned that she was a dancer who did not sell herself somewhere in Xiayu square, and sincerely invited her to the palace to accompany her. Purple Maple hesitated at the beginning and didn''t want to agree, but his eyes showed a glance at the love and greed for the luxurious decoration in the palace. Sun Yao took out a box of jewelry. Although Zifeng still looked weak, he reluctantly agreed. Such a contradictory look made sun Yao despise and hate.


    Compared with Qin Xian, who was born in Sikong mansion, Zifeng''s birth now shows full advantages. Sun Yao is extremely satisfied with her identity. Even if Wang Shangrong has unlimited pet in the future, how can she turn over big waves without the support of the family behind her? In addition, holding her slave documents in the palm of your hand is tantamount to holding her future and destiny in the palm of your hand. Are you afraid she won''t obey? Fighting in the palace has always been the lesser of the two powers. Sun Yao resolutely asked her to study a dance style completely different from Qin Xian, in order to replace Qin Xian''s position in the king''s heart. Sure enough, she won the king''s favor at the first time.


    But what always made her wonder was that the woman favored by the king would be granted Jin Feng the next day. If he loves the most, sometimes he can be granted a wife directly, obtain the Lord of the first palace and spoil the scenery. However, the Purple Maple girl pestered the king in the back bedroom of Zhaode hall every day. It was obvious that she was very popular with the king, but the will of Jin Feng never came. Fortunately, it was the new year. Muxiu had nothing urgent to summon princes and ministers until Shangyuan Festival. In addition to the afternoon of the second day of the lunar new year, I heard that the crown prince of Teng Ju brought the delegation to Kyoto. The king temporarily gathered several Le Ke and Gongsun Li to summon the crown prince''s delegation. I also heard that the king learned that the prince came to the kingdom of Wuliang to find his crown princess, so he laughed and sent Gongsun Li to receive him and provide everything possible convenience. He hurried to end the meeting and went into the back hall.


    Sun Yao was both happy and angry that Zifeng could get such a holy family. I''m glad that I found the right person, which dealt a serious blow to Mrs. Qin. If Zifeng is capable in the future, it can also help me. Angrily, the Purple Maple was born in the market and didn''t know how to restrain. She thought, today is the fifth day. No matter how, the queen should greet her. As for Purple Maple, it''s time to beat it. Thinking of this, she got up, looked at her sleeping son, whispered to Su Mei, cleaned up a little and went to Zhaode hall.


    When he went outside the bedroom hall, an internal attendant had already reported it to the eunuch. The five rivers came out and greeted the queen, but they didn''t mean to welcome the queen in immediately. Sun Yao gently raised her eyebrows and said, "what''s the matter? The king and Zifeng haven''t got up yet? "


    The five rivers were embarrassed. "If you go back to the queen, the king won''t get up until noon these days. The breakfast was delivered at noon. At this time, there was no sound inside. I''m afraid I''m still sleeping. "


    Sun Yao was a little angry, "how unreasonable! Although it''s the New Year holiday, the king''s dragon body is precious. How can he stand the toss of the night? You slaves don''t know how to persuade? "


    The five rivers of tears were about to come out. "The queen was right. Why didn''t the slaves persuade me? The king is in high spirits. I''m afraid no one can speak except his mother. Yesterday, Mrs. Qin also came and said that she was congratulating the king on his new birthday. The king only said, "I knew and sent away. I didn''t even see her."


    Sun Yao smiled when she heard that Mrs. Qin was shriveled.


    "Oh, I didn''t see you yesterday. I always thought I should see you because of the Queen''s thin face. I didn''t expect..."


    The visitor was Qin Xian, who also brought several concubines who were close to her in the past. When she finished, she giggled with them.


    "You are not allowed to enter the sleeping hall unless notified. Now it''s almost noon, and you''re still sleeping. I''m afraid you''re not feeling well. I should go in and see one or two. " Sun Yao said proudly without looking at the gloomy faces of Qin Xian and others. When will this privilege not be used at this time?


    She lifted up her skirt and was about to step into the inner room. Suddenly she stepped back and said to Su Mei, "go in and tie the Purple Maple out to our palace so as not to pollute our eyes."


    Su Mei understood what she meant and listened carefully. There was silence inside before she slowly touched it. Although the sun has risen three times, the heavy gauze curtains in the dormitory are tightly closed, and the light is extremely dim. I think the beauty is afraid of cold, and maybe afraid of seeing light. Su Mei fumbled for a while, barely adapted to the dark light inside, opened the bed curtain and stared at the people on the bed.


    She covered her mouth, dared not make a sound, and quietly stepped out.


    Zhuo Xi feels her head is going to explode these days. Since that night, Rong followed her instructions to look for the wind, he has disappeared since then. She wanted to ask Jing Yuan several times. She remembered that he had relieved his guard and was now free. It was a little strange to ask about his whereabouts, so she gave up. But soon she found that she seemed to have a new dark guard, which was extremely incompetent.


    At first, surprised Yan found that there were unknown people outside Furong''s house. Without asking, he rushed up and wrestled with her. Their martial arts were equal. After fighting for more than half an hour, Zi Ran Ran ran over to say that the new dark guard would replace Jian Rong. Zhuo Xi waved her hand and asked Jing Yan to step down. She took out some snacks she had a little try and put them on the table, trying to lure the dark Wei named Xiao soul. While letting herself try to ignore her name, she reasoned with her: "the nvxia, it''s cold outside and consumes a lot of heat. Why don''t you sit down and taste tea, eat snacks and warm your body?"


    But without saying a word, Xiao soul hid in an unknown corner, but a pair of bright eyes always adhered to Zhuo Xi all the time. Zhuo Xi wanted to let herself forget this feeling, but somehow, she was often stared at and got goose bumps all over her body.


    She also asked Jing Yuan, "they all say it''s dark Wei. It should make people feel that she doesn''t exist. Why can I wake up when I even fall asleep? "


    Jing Yuan just glanced at her and praised her somewhere in the air, "well done."


    Good, your sister. The creepy way people stare at you. Why don''t you try?


    "You can feel her presence, which shows that your master and servant are connected. You get used to it slowly. If you turn this existence into a sense of security, Xiao soul will be successful. "


    Under the comfort of Jing Yuan''s shameless remarks, Zhuo Xi''s inability to protest failed, so she had to give up decadent, suffering under the gaze of those eyes day and night, silently expecting them to be blind one day.


    On the fifth day of the lunar new year, early in the morning, the whole city of Kyoto was immersed in all kinds of gongs and drums. It is said that the God of food has arrived. Every family is busy welcoming the God of food. Zhuo Xi was awakened by the loud sound of gongs and drums outside the door. He grabbed Jing Yuan, who had already been dressed neatly and energetic, and asked, "what is the God of food?"


    "The people regard food as their priority and welcome the God of food in order to have enough food for a year. Why is it strange?"


    "Why not welcome the God of wealth?"


    "What is the God of wealth?"


    Zhuo Xi immediately woke up. "The God of wealth is the God who can send you gold, silver and coins. He knows that the God of food asked him to send food. Why not directly ask the God of wealth to send coins? With money, you can buy all kinds of food and clothes, even houses, cars and sons. "


    "Son?" Jing Yuan looked at her dangerously


    Well, it''s too fast. I slipped my tongue¡° You rich people are not three wives and four concubines. You can naturally buy Women to have sons if you need them. What''s so strange? "


    I thought it was difficult to fool him. Unexpectedly, he thought on his side, pulled her up and said, "madam, this idea is very good. Go to the Empress Dowager and the king Chen table with her husband. Please change the God of food to the God of wealth, so that the God of wealth can protect the people all over the world to have plenty of food and clothing and live and work in peace and contentment."


    Zhuo Xi burst into tears. Looking at the sky just shining outside the window, she wanted to slap herself and let you talk more¡° "My Lord," she cried.


    Jing Yuan turned and looked at her dangerously, "what do you call me?"


    "Oh, no, brother." Since Jing Yuan called her wife, she once stressed that she should call her husband. Zhuo Xi really couldn''t say it, but she felt that they could sleep together. Although they weren''t real husband and wife, could they be boyfriend and girlfriend? So he tried his best to explain to him the intimacy and secrecy embodied in the word "brother" as a substitute for his boyfriend, in exchange for his nod. Seeing that his face was a little slow, he shouted sweetly, "brother, I haven''t woke up yet. Besides, the Empress Dowager also needs plenty of time to eat a good breakfast and maybe get back to sleep. We''ll be there later. " She shook his hand and got goose bumps all over herself. She had never been so numb.


    Jing Yuan leaned close to her ear and asked softly, "it is rumored that there is a big play in the palace today. Do you want to see the play or sleep?"


    Zhuo Xi suddenly widened her eyes, woke up for a few minutes, and said loudly, "the plan of a year is spring, and the plan of a day is in the morning. How can life waste time sleeping? What a luxury! "


    So she now sadly shrank in her fluffy cloak and waited at the gate of Zhaoyang palace. For the Chamberlain who went in to inform said, the king will not get up until noon, and it is not time to summon them.


    Jing Yuan thought for a moment and said to Zhuo Xi, "it''s better to go and greet the Empress Dowager first."


    Sun Yao at the back of the hall came out strangely when she saw Su Mei''s frightened face. "What''s the matter?"


    Su Mei whispered a few words. Sun Yao angrily lifted up his skirt and rushed in, "you, you, go and open the bed curtain." Qin Xian and others saw something different, and they didn''t care about the etiquette. Qi Qi followed in.


    The two palace maids came forward and just tucked in the tent. They covered their mouths and exclaimed. Qin Xian rushed forward and dragged the red fruit woman on the bed from Jing''s feet, "bitch! How did you get here? "


    The woman was so dragged, she still seemed to wake up. Her eyes were half open, half sitting on the ground, and she was going to sleep again.


    This movement awakened Jing Tai on the bed. As soon as he opened his eyes, he found that it was Qin Xian squatting in front of him with the fruit girl. He couldn''t help getting angry, "xian''er, what are you going to do?" He grabbed the thin quilt, got up and wanted to cover the woman. When he looked carefully, he was even more surprised and angry, "Wang Jialin! Why is she here? "


    Standing aside, sun Yao sneered, "my Lord, the Purple Maple girl is beautiful and beautiful. Even my concubine can''t help being fascinated by her. I thought the Purple Maple girl was favored by you. I was thinking of congratulating you on your beauty. Today, I even brought the Phoenix seal of Jin Feng. I''m waiting for you to move her to Lily palace as soon as your golden mouth opens. Unexpectedly, you are not lucky enough to be a Purple Maple girl, but such a woman? "


    Jing Tai is also confused. The red fruit woman around him has just pulled it off from him. Who else is she? But looking at this woman''s appearance, I couldn''t help feeling sick. I can''t believe it''s her who has fallen in love with me these days. But if it''s her, where''s Zifeng? Think about it again. The one he talks with every afternoon is clearly Purple Maple. It''s impossible. He immediately found self comfort. But now his wives and concubines are standing in front of him to witness his scandal. He can''t help being very angry. He is angry and will go to Wang Jialin.


    "That''s unreasonable! Five rivers, wake her up! " He got up and shouted. Another little eunuch immediately put on his clothes and found out the situation. It''s not too much to divide her into five parts.


    Five rivers brought a basin of cold water from the outside, splashed it on the woman''s head with a crash, and the woman screamed and woke up completely. The cold water in this cold winter is cold on the tentacles, not to mention splashing all over the body. She trembled and didn''t know where she was. When she saw that she was actually the queen in front of her, her hands and feet were cold. Regardless of her cold naked body, she immediately knelt down on the ground, "queen, spare your life!"


    "Spare your life? Look, you''re not a fool. Tell the truth. What have you done to me? What about Purple Maple? " A majestic voice sounded behind her. She looked at her red body. Her whole body was paralyzed on the ground and couldn''t say anything.


    Wuhe walked around the bed for two times and found that there was a sound of breathing under the bed. He quickly opened the bed curtain and dragged the people under the bed out. Unexpectedly, it was a Purple Maple who was tied and stuffed with a cloth towel in his mouth.

 Chapter 60

    Jing Yuan takes Zhuo Xi to the Ci''an palace and successfully invites the Empress Dowager an.


    The Empress Dowager was very happy, especially when she watched Zhuo Xi put up a series of snacks she had never seen before, some of which were even transparent, dotted with tiny Osmanthus fragrans. They were very beautiful and had a good appetite.


    "Empress dowager, these are some snacks developed by the little girl and the cook in her spare time. I specially put less sugar. I don''t know if it suits your appetite."


    Mother Su, beside the empress dowager, quickly brought a silver spoon, carefully scooped up a small piece and put it into the Empress Dowager''s mouth.


    "Soft waxy, slightly sweet and not greasy, very delicious. Xiao Xi, you have a heart. "


    Zhuo Xi almost spewed out another mouthful of blood, Xiao Xi? Where''s the nickname?


    Jing Yuan held back his smile and blinked at her, as if to say, is my name "Xi''er" good?


    She had to smile awkwardly, "empress dowager, you like it, which is my greatest blessing."


    The Empress Dowager was delighted and put another piece in her mouth.


    Jing Yuan said, "empress dowager, today is the day to welcome the God of food. You say, why do the world regard the desire to eat as the first priority and ignore others? "


    "Food is the most important thing for the people. Since ancient times, people can be satisfied as long as they eat enough. It is because the God of food is popular among the people. "


    "Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the people are ashamed of businessmen and of gold, silver and silk. As everyone knows, as long as there are money, clothing, food, housing and transportation, which is not easy to catch? Why does no one believe in the God of wealth? "


    The Empress Dowager thought, "that''s true. If we educate the people to worship the God of food as the God of wealth, the people all over the world will have plenty of food and clothing, wealth and peace. "


    She had already eaten several cakes before she knew it. Mammy Su could not help but put her hands together and said, "thank God, you have no appetite these days. You haven''t eaten so freely for a long time. Miss Zhuo Xi, you still have a way. "


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "Empress Dowager must have eaten too many greasy things at the palace banquet on New Year''s Eve. This cake is quite light, but it''s not suitable to eat more."


    Jing Yuan asked, "empress dowager, are you uncomfortable?"


    The Empress Dowager helped her forehead. "She has an old problem. Her appetite is sometimes good and sometimes bad. In addition, there has been a lot of wind and snow these days. She has just suffered a little wind and cold. I''m too lazy to walk around and stay on this big Kang all day. "


    Jing Yuan suddenly had a sad look, "empress dowager, my son ministers have always regarded you as their mother. If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to let me know. "


    The Empress Dowager was startled. "I have a small problem. What''s the matter with you?"


    "It has always been a great regret in the hearts of the children''s ministers that a close relative has contracted a disease and has not served him all day. The mother imperial concubine is like this, and the father is like this. Every time I think of this, my son and minister are distressed. I think that in the past ten years, my son''s courtiers haven''t been filial for a day. It''s really... No, no, empress dowager, please forgive my son''s gaffe. " Jing Yuan said in a low voice.


    "Good boy, I understand. Your father, mother and imperial concubine will be relieved if they know you have such filial piety. "


    "Empress dowager, there has always been a doubt in her son''s heart. My father has always been in good health. Why did he suddenly fall ill and can''t wait for three days?"


    The Empress Dowager looked dignified. "What did you find?"


    Jing Yuan glanced at mammy su. Mother Su understood, put down her spoon and turned to go out. Zhuo Xi also wants to go out with her. But Jing Yuan pressed her hand. She had to look at mammy Su''s back and try to shrink up to reduce her sense of existence. She really didn''t want to get involved in this royal mystery for some reason. This royal secret is worth killing. The less you know, the better.


    Jing Yuan said slowly, "my son was responsible for the burial of my father. Recently, a bodyguard reported that he had personally seen poisonous black insects crawling out of the gap in his father''s coffin. But because of the importance, he hesitated until today and just reported it to me. "


    "Check, check it for me!" The Empress Dowager was so excited that she stood up and raised her sword eyebrows. She was deeply in love with the former king. It was hard to accept the fact that the former king was killed.


    "Empress dowager, who will secretly harm your father in this deep palace? Who can do it? The truth, I''m afraid... "


    The Empress Dowager was stunned and slowly fell down on the chair, "yes, who would think, and who can? Just him, just him! "


    Jing Yuan pursed his lips and said nothing. Only the Empress Dowager could decide whether to check or not. The palm and back of the hand are all meat.


    For a long time, the Empress Dowager said wearily, "do you have any clues?"


    Jing Yuan was silent and said, "a few days ago, a woman found the Marquis of Guang''an and claimed to be the wife of Huang Taiyi in the original palace. She gave her son something. "


    The Empress Dowager said, "what is it?"


    "A suicide note."


    "Whose suicide note?"


    "Does the Empress Dowager still remember the case of Mrs. Hu''s Witch cup at the beginning of last year?"


    "Naturally, I remember that Mrs. Hu privately set up a witch cup in the room, and the one who won the cup was still mourning. At that time, AI family suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain and the medicine stone was lifeless. The first king was so angry that he ordered him to die. Only then did he find out that it was Mrs. Hu who made the cup in the room. If you remove it with a cup, the disease will disappear. "


    Jingyuan shook his head. "Does the Empress Dowager still remember who was the imperial doctor who diagnosed your pulse at that time?"


    She recalled for a moment, "it seems to be a doctor surnamed Huang. It seems to have disappeared this year. "


    "Naturally, there is no trace. At the beginning of this year, his body was found thirty miles outside the city. "


    "What was the cause of death?"


    "Kill with one knife. He left this suicide note. The killer obviously killed people. But the people behind the scenes obviously didn''t know that Dr. Huang Tai knew that he might be dying soon. He left the Taiyuan hospital in a hurry to escape this disaster. He once wrote down all he had done and told his wife. I wanted to threaten the murderer behind the scenes in order to protect myself, but I died before the news was revealed. "


    "What did he write?"


    "He felt the Empress Dowager''s pulse at that time and found that the Empress Dowager was not the pain caused by the witch cup, but actually a poison called ma Zui grass. This poison is extracted from a kind of horse drunken grass, which means that horses will get drunk after eating it. If people take this poison by mistake, they may have unbearable abdominal pain. But, "he paused," if this poison is eaten with snow ginseng, it can be unconscious. "


    The Empress Dowager was surprised, "at that time, only the first king had to take Snow ginseng every day."


    "Exactly. The first king needs to take Xueshen every day to relieve cough and asthma. Doctor Huang was terrified after he diagnosed the poison and figured out its joints. For a moment, he didn''t dare to tell the truth. "


    "So the AI family just ate the poison by mistake. In fact, their real goal was the first king?" There was a faint anger on the Empress Dowager''s face.


    "Exactly. After returning to the imperial medical department, Dr. Huang received a summons from Mrs. Hu, asking him to come to the conclusion that you are actually Zhongzhong. "


    "How can doctor Huang comply with Mrs. Hu''s order? Why did Mrs. Hu sacrifice her life? "


    Jing Yuan shook his head, "the reason remains to be investigated in detail. But my son-in-law guessed that brother Wang might not want to kill his father, but just want him to sleep for a few days to get a good opportunity to deal with Ji Qing. Unexpectedly, this lotus seed soup with ingredients will be eaten by you by mistake. "


    "Yes, madam Hu ordered someone to bring a bowl of lotus seed soup that day. The AI family happened to be on one side. The first king thought the lotus seed soup was too sweet, so he rewarded the AI family. Unexpectedly, less than half a day after AI''s return to the palace, his abdominal pain was like wringing. No one expected that the problem was in that bowl of lotus seed soup. "


    She didn''t expect such a truth. It took her a long time to digest the story.


    In the later story, she can basically guess, "once Jingtai moved Shi''s father''s killing idea, the little sign will gradually become more and more intense. Finally, I couldn''t help shooting again. This time, it was done perfectly. " The Empress Dowager said slowly, "so, yuan''er, what are you going to do?"


    Jing Yuan shook his head, "empress dowager, these ministers don''t know why my father died, how he was poisoned, and why brother Wang did so. It''s a sad ending for my father and minister, but I didn''t feel so sorry for him a few decades ago. "


    The Empress Dowager took a deep breath and said, "go check it. I just want to know why! "


    At this time, mother Su came in and said something in the Empress Dowager''s ear.


    The Empress Dowager Shua stood up and angrily said, "he is becoming more and more absurd! Ride in the Zhaode hall! "


    "Promise!" Mother Su answered and arranged.


    After the Purple Maple girl in the bedroom was pulled out from under the bed, Wuhe untied the rope for her and took the cloth from the exit. However, she was unable to speak. Jing Ti wanted to hold her in her arms and coax her, but because the queen and her wives were waiting for her concubines, she had to suppress her desire and thoughts. When she looked at Wang Jialin, who was paralyzed on the ground, she felt angry, stretched out her feet and kicked the naked woman on the ground, saying in a hate voice, "what have you done to Purple Maple? What have you done to me? "


    Wang Jialin was kicked with broken ribs and unbearable pain, but she also knew that life and death were at stake at this time. She vigorously endured it and said intermittently, "the king, the king and the queen spare life. The little girl and the little girl don''t know what''s going on. No, I don''t know if it''s right. Someone''s taking medicine... "Before he finished, sun Yao was shocked by the speech and hurriedly came forward to Jing Ti and said," Sir, the smell here really seems different. Do you want to... "


    Jing Tui looked very cold and said, "go and tell the doctor Wu to come."


    The palace man answered. He was about to pick up Zifeng. Wang Jialin still had to explain, but he heard a palace man report outside, "Sir, the Empress Dowager has arrived outside Zhaode hall."


    This is the bedroom hall. Although the Empress Dowager is his mother, it is not easy to go in and out of his son''s bedroom hall at will, so she usually steps outside the Zhaode hall. As soon as he heard that his mother was coming, he immediately packed up his clothes and led a group of women in the room to meet him. Before going out, the woman who saw the dazzling red fruit on the ground kicked again with hatred. Wang Jialin felt more pain and fainted.


    "My son doesn''t know what my mother is doing. Please forgive me for being late." He welcomed the Empress Dowager and her party to the side hall and made a big ceremony.


    The Empress Dowager said coldly, "get up."


    "Empress mother, my son has heard that you don''t have much appetite recently. Now he''s very well?"


    "Hum, it''s hard for you to remember that you have a bad appetite. The AI family thought that you had a beautiful new girl and had long forgotten your mother behind your head. "


    Jing Taishan said, "where did the mother say? Son, it''s ridiculous recently. "


    The Empress Dowager shouted, "ridiculous! You''re just ridiculous! " What is the real meaning behind this? Only Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi, who closely follow the empress dowager, understand that she used this sentence to spread her previous anger!


    Jing Tai seldom saw her mother speak so fiercely and fiercely, and she couldn''t help looking ugly in front of a crowd of outsiders, but she couldn''t explain anything. She had to bow her head and be embarrassed.

 Chapter 61

    But Sun Yao, bent on protecting her husband''s face, stood up and said, "the empress dowager, calm down. Although the king won a beautiful woman recently, I''m afraid he was framed for this absurd word. "


    "Frame up? How can anyone harm him in this deep palace? " The Empress Dowager still looked angry.


    Sun Yao didn''t know why the Empress Dowager''s tone was so heavy, but she couldn''t explain what happened to Wang Jialin. She looked at Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi. It was even more embarrassing. They all said that the family''s ugliness should not be publicized. She couldn''t say it in any case when the outsider was present.


    Seeing that they were speechless, the Empress Dowager asked, "what about the beauty of Xinna? Call her out to see the mourners. "


    Jingtai just wanted to say a few words. Mrs. Qin has quickly brought out Zifeng. But I saw that her hair was messy, her face was covered with dust, her clothes were wrinkled, and there were some purples in the visible skin of her hands and feet. People who don''t have the truth don''t know where they will associate with.


    Zhuo Xi screamed, "wind," she refrained from calling out her full name, but it was "Maple" in other people''s ears. She didn''t stop her next sentence, "have you been kidnapped?"


    Mrs. Qin said, "Wu Yi Shiguo is really a good eyesight."


    The Empress Dowager Leng humed, "tui''er, how did I hear that it''s not the Purple Maple girl who has been fighting with you in the bedroom these days. Is there any other woman who is more beautiful than this Purple Maple? "


    Jing Tai blushed and was extremely embarrassed. His mother had not asked about the secret of the boudoir for decades, but now she wanted to talk about it in public and tell him where to put his face.


    After finding out the truth, Mrs. Qin smiled and told him to stop it


    The Empress Dowager came for this matter. How can she easily listen to him and go back to the palace in a few words, and immediately refuse, "Miss Zifeng, you know this best. You say. "


    Zifeng rubbed the place where her wrists were tied blue, blessed her body, and slowly said, "on the night of the Palace Banquet, when the civilian woman was arranged in the bedroom, she somehow fainted. When I woke up, I found myself tied up and stuffed under the bed. Until noon the next day, someone released the civilian daughter and threatened not to tell the king about it. They also pretended to have nothing unusual to talk to the king for dinner. At night, the man did the same trick again, tied up the female fan and put it under the bed, day by day. Fortunately, the queen broke the matter today and the little girl was rescued. Thank you very much, Queen. " After hearing this, Jing Tai almost wanted to vomit blood. So, it was the woman who tangled with him night and night these days?


    "Do you know who is the one who will daze you?" Asked the Empress Dowager.


    She nodded. "It''s Wang Jialin, the second miss in Sima''s house of Wang Da."


    "She was originally the engaged future Marquis and wife of the Marquis of Guang''an, and she will be married in two months. Why do you use such means to seduce the king? Do you know why she did it? "


    Zifeng said, "I don''t know why she seduced the king. But the people''s daughter knows why she dazes me. "


    "Why?"


    "She''s taking revenge on the people''s daughter. That day, in Feiyu zuiyu Pavilion, she took a fancy to some clothes and jewelry and wanted to take them away by force. The people''s daughter looked aside and said something ironic. I didn''t think she had a grudge. "


    As soon as sun Yao heard about Feiyu drunken Yuxuan, she hurriedly asked, "she is the daughter of Sima''s house. It''s not difficult to buy some clothes and jewelry. Why do you want to take it away by force?"


    "Later, shopkeeper Zhuo Xi came out to solve the siege. After listening to her confrontation, the second miss of the Wang family seems to regard Feiyu Zui Yuxuan as the property of the Marquis of Guang''an. She said that the Feiyu zuiyu pavilion was built and invested by the craftsmen of the Hou house. The shopkeeper, Miss Zhuo Xi, is the appropriate servant of the Hou house, and she herself is the future hostess of the Hou house. Therefore, she can take the items in the Feiyu zuiyu Pavilion at will. " Purple Maple seemed to be recalling the events of that day, and suddenly said, "ah?"


    Now half of the profits of Feiyu Zuoyu Yuxuan are in sun Yao''s hands. She was angry when she heard that Wang Jialin was so brazen. Seeing that Zifeng wanted to stop talking, she couldn''t help asking, "what else did you think of?"


    Zifeng fell down and said, "the people''s daughter thought of the reason why the second miss of the Wang family seduced the king. But please forgive the sins of the people''s daughter and miss Zhuo Xi before the people''s daughter dares to say. "


    The Empress Dowager was very angry. "Wang Jialin has an engagement with the Marquis house. She even thinks of the king. It''s shameless! Only a few clothes and jewelry are worth fighting for, and I don''t know what it means! I beg your pardon. Why did she seduce the king? "


    Zifeng got up and replied, "that day, the shopkeeper smelled the speech and explained to the second miss of the Wang family that according to this logic, the Feiyu zuiyu pavilion was personally written by the Queen''s mother, half of the working capital was invested by Bai''an palace, and the female officials of all palaces and governments were also under the jurisdiction of Bai''an palace. Could it be......" she glanced at Zhuo Xi and hooked her lips, "the shopkeeper asked that day, Is it possible that the girl is also the future mistress of Bai''an palace? "


    Zhuo Xi also bowed down when she heard the speech, "empress, please forgive me. The little girl made a slip of the tongue in a hurry that day. It was really because the jewelry and clothes that the second Miss Wang liked were worth 200000 yuan. The little girl was really distressed and didn''t know how to explain to her the truth of bartering with money. That''s why... "


    Sun Yao''s face was livid and her nails were about to be cut off. "If you didn''t mean it, even if you made a big slip of the tongue, you couldn''t make her take risks." Mrs. Qin said with a smile, "Oh, I didn''t expect that the future Marquis and wife have great ambition?!"


    Zifeng hesitated at this time, "but it''s just the speculation of the people''s daughter. What''s the truth? Please explain it yourself."


    Sun Yao angrily said, "what''s the explanation for such cheap women? We can see clearly the situation in the hall just now. Can we still wronged her?! What''s more, if you judge her, which woman in the world will tell herself that she wants to seduce the king? By the way, has Doctor Wu come? "


    Wu Taiyi, who had already quietly stood aside, stood up and said, "I''m here. After returning to the empress dowager, the king and the queen, the minister just went to the bedroom hall and found that there was a smell of Ruo Wuxiang in the hall. "


    "If there is no fragrance?" Sun Yao was surprised.


    "It seems that if there is no fragrance, it is called if there is no fragrance. This fragrance has an aphrodisiac effect on both men and women. If the weight is increased, it can make people hallucinate. What is more sinister is that if a woman is poisoned by this poison, she needs to take the antidote or have sex with someone to detoxify. Otherwise, you may die of blood explosion. Men don''t worry about their lives. "


    Jing Tai''s face was iron green, and the five rivers on one side had already knelt on the ground. He is duty bound to do so in the dormitory.


    A concubine whispered something in Mrs. Qin''s ear. Qin Xian looked at Zifeng suspiciously and asked, "Zifeng is bound under the bed every night. She should be in it if there is no fragrance. But why did the Purple Maple girl get this fragrance, but her body was ok? "


    Purple Maple also looked puzzled, "exactly. I don''t know. "


    Jing Tai didn''t care about shame. "Doctor Wu, give her a pulse."


    Doctor Wu agreed and said he was offended. He put his hand across his sleeve on Zifeng''s wrist. His face was complex. It took a long time for him to say, "back to the empress dowager, the king and the queen. From the pulse, Zifeng had been poisoned by incense before. After detoxification, she had resistance to the incense, so there was nothing wrong. Just... "


    Zifeng hurriedly interrupted him, "the Queen''s mother Rong reported that the people''s daughter had been hit before. If there was no incense, she didn''t want to be blessed by misfortune and save her life."


    Mrs. Qin said with a giggle, "even if there is no fragrance, she is ready every day. The second miss of the Wang family is really well intentioned. I''m afraid she arranged to expose the matter today. Just taking advantage of the presence of the Empress Dowager and the queen, it may be possible to win the throne of the first palace. "


    "How unreasonable! Is the Lord of the first house what she can think?! Somebody, drag Wang Jialin to the five punishment division first! " All the beauties present shivered. Where is the five criminal division? If it can come out alive, it can peel off its skin if it doesn''t die.


    Jing Yuan, who had been watching the play with great interest, came out at the right time, "empress dowager, your majesty, this is the end of the matter. The second miss of the Wang family can no longer be the wife of the marquis. The son minister asked for an order to cancel the marriage agreement between the Hou house and the Wang family. "


    As soon as he said this, Jing Tai narrowed his eyes and didn''t know what he thought.


    The Empress Dowager also had a question, "yuan''er, is it related to you?"


    Jing Yuan smiled, "empress mother, even if the children and ministers are no longer willing to marry the Wang family, they will not use such means, which will not only destroy their innocence, but also pollute brother Wang''s holy name. This is already the case. My son thought that this matter should not be publicized and should be dealt with quietly. "


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "I''m afraid, Wang Da Sima..."


    Jing Yuan was already thinking about how to deal with the woman and Wang Da Sima secretly. The five rivers quickly got up and ordered the little eunuch outside. So Wang Jialin has been quickly dragged to the fifth punishment division. She didn''t know that without her knowledge, the fate of herself and her family had changed dramatically, and she didn''t even have a chance to defend.


    Jing Tai''s head is in a mess. Rao is that he has become the son of heaven. He thinks he doesn''t have to endure the atmosphere surrounded by conspiracy. The fragile sense of security just cultivated is destroyed by this woman in an instant. Moreover, he was unconscious to have sex with him under the action of Ruo Wuxiang. He felt more filthy and unlucky. He was full of anger. There was nowhere to hair in front of the Empress Dowager and the queen. He was extremely embarrassed and ashamed. He didn''t know what to say. When he saw the five rivers coming in and worshipping at this time, "report to the king, the crown prince of tengju asked to see him."


    He was so upset that he wanted to have some political affairs to let all the women go back to the harem. When he heard this, he was very happy, "announce it quickly. Put it in the hall of deliberation. " Get rid of these women first. It must be right for the prince of a neighboring country to come to the Council hall to discuss state affairs.


    But the five rivers hesitated and whispered, "the prince Rong said, say..."


    The empress dowager, who was about to avoid, couldn''t help asking, "what are you talking about?"


    In the eyes of the Empress Dowager and Wang shangjiong, Wuhe hardened his head and said, "he said he came here not for state affairs, but to find his crown princess. And... "


    "And what?" It''s a coincidence that these things happened together.


    "And he said that his crown princess is now in the Zhaode palace."


    "How unreasonable!" This sound was made by sun Yao, "nonsense. I don''t want to cool the harem. How can I hide his crown princess? "


    Others looked around and thought about it. Others looked at each other, but their faces didn''t get better.


    Zhuo Xi was also confused and wanted to take the hyacinth back to clean it first, but looking at this situation, how could she speak?


    "Since it involves the affairs of the harem, please let the crown prince into this side hall. The queen is here, and you will deal with the affairs of the harem. I''m tired. I''ll go back to the Palace first. " With that, the Empress Dowager drove back to Ci''an palace. Before leaving, he saw that hyacinth''s face was not good, so he said, "Miss Zifeng, go and freshen up first. Girl Zhuo Xi, if you know each other well, please accompany her. Send some snacks to the mourning family another day. "


    Purple Maple worshipped Yingying, and his weak appearance made Zhuo Xi''s face smoke. Zhuo Xi thanked the Empress Dowager and hurried to pretend to pick her up, but pinched her nails into her arm. Dead girl, when will you install it? What kind of medicine do you sell in your gourd? They turned behind the screen and walked from behind.


    The prince Rong brought an entourage in and saw a group of women present. He was stunned and bowed, "Yan Rong, Prince of tengju, see the king and the queen. It''s the new year. The palace wishes the king and queen all the best in the four seasons and joy every year. "


    Jing Tai said in a deep voice, "flat. I heard you were looking for the crown princess, but you found it in the widowed palace. Is that so? "


    "Imperial concubine yuan is young and playful. She got angry with the palace on the road a few days ago and left. I don''t want to disturb Shengjia here. Please forgive me. The palace will take her back to tengju and ask you to send someone to call her out. "


    Jing Tai said, "I don''t know anything about it. What''s the name of the crown princess? "


    "No, my wife''s surname is Feng, and her single name is a letter."


    Jing Tai asked the queen in doubt, "queen, have you ever had a woman named Feng Xin in the harem?"


    I heard that sun yaoben never shook his head


    Yan Rong said, "my wife is stubborn and has been pregnant for more than a month. My palace is really worried, in case of a mistake... "


    Sun Yao was even more surprised. "If a woman in the harem is pregnant, it is determined not to hide it."


    At this time, Doctor Wu came out and said, "tell the queen, when I was just consulting the pulse of Miss Zifeng, I found that she had a happy pulse for more than a month."


    Sun Yao Ningmei, "is it the Purple Maple girl?"


    Jing Yuan was happy. "Is this Purple Maple girl your crown princess?"


    Mrs. Qin has said, "yes or no, please come out and know as soon as you see it?" The breath she held a few days ago has gone out one by one today. Looking at people who are more unlucky than her, she is in a good mood; She was even happier when she saw that the king might draw water with a bamboo basket. Not only did she think so, but none of the concubines behind her didn''t think so. They have no reason to be unhappy without a powerful enemy?


    Jing Tai has sunk his face. He hasn''t touched this gorgeous beauty yet. How can he kill a prince on the way? But it was hard for him to say anything in full view of the public.

 Chapter 62

    So when Zhuo Xi came out again with the washed Purple Maple, she found that they had become the focus of public attention. No, it''s not them, it''s her. To be exact, Purple Maple has become the focus of public attention. Then Zhuo Xi widened her eyes because she saw an acquaintance in the field.


    Seeing them coming out, the acquaintance immediately stepped forward and grabbed Zifeng''s hand, "Princess Ai, the palace has finally found you." After a pause, he also felt that calling himself the palace was too awkward, so he changed his tone, "Feng ER, come back with me. I know I''m wrong. Don''t hide again. Do you know how frightened I am when I can''t find you? "


    This palace? Prince Rong? Room capacity? Zifeng was as surprised as Zhuo Xi at the moment.


    Mrs. Qin giggled and was most happy, "it turns out that Miss Zifeng is really your crown princess."


    Princess? Zifeng and zhuoxi were surprised again. After taking a look at Jing Yuan''s normal look, it seemed that he had known about it for a long time.


    Sun Yao doesn''t know what her mood is. She originally wanted to use Purple Maple to bring down Mrs. Qin, but a few days later she was afraid that she would spoil guanhougong. Now she is a little regretful and happy about the situation. Regardless of Jing''s ugly face, he smiled and said, "it turned out to be the Crown Princess of tengju state. No wonder our palace looks at Miss Zifeng, which is different from ordinary products."


    Jingtai heard that Zifeng was pregnant, and saw that the prince Rong Yushu was facing the wind. He was young and handsome, and his family background was prominent. He couldn''t get the upper hand. He just stared at Zifeng with a little reluctance, hoping that she could gamble with the prince again, and he would still have a chance.


    But at this time, everyone present stared at Zifeng and waited for her reaction. On the contrary, no one noticed the king. Zhuo Xi also stared at her. She thought that with the temperament of hyacinth, this room contained such a big move to hide all her people. Suddenly, she jumped out and had to at least make a gesture and scold to relieve her anger. Unexpectedly, she heard Feng credit whine and said, "prince, it''s Feng ER''s mischief that makes you worry. I''m really sorry."


    Zhuo Xi dug her ears hard and suspected that she had a hearing illusion, but she widened her eyes at the next moment. She watched the hyacinth Tingting curl past, took Yan Rong''s arm, held her stomach with the other hand, raised her head, raised her chest and focused her eyes. At that moment, she really seemed to have the demeanor and demeanor of the crown princess.


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes and opened them again. It was not an illusion. They were still looking at each other affectionately. It seemed that they were completely trapped in the world of two people. In fact, Zifeng was worried about how to get away. Wang Jialin had been punished and seemed unable to continue her marriage with Jing Yuan. Her goal had been successfully achieved. Unexpectedly, this room really gave her a great shock and surprise. But if you don''t go down such a good step, when will you stay? As for the previous grievances, she went back and settled with him.


    Jing Yuan looked into his brother Wang''s eyes and coughed, "the crown prince, now that you have found your crown princess. "Why not..." he hurried forward and pulled back his waiter.


    Yan Rong woke up like a dream, "Xie Guang''an Hou reminded." He gave Jing Ti and the queen a big gift, "thank you for taking care of Feng ER in recent days. The palace will take her back to the post station to have a rest and come back to the king in two days. "


    At this time, everyone seemed to forget that the crown princess had lived in the king''s bedroom for five days. Although Mrs. Qin looked happy, she also knew that this matter was related to the reputation of the Crown Princess of neighboring countries, not to mention that Wang Jialin was in front of the tuyere, so she dared not speak again. Seeing Jing''s face, sun Yao had to say, "exactly. Now it''s the new year. Ordinary couples quarrel and run away from home. Now that you two have made up, go back quickly and enjoy the family fun while taking advantage of the tail of the new year. "


    "Thank the queen, thank the king." He saluted hurriedly and went out with the Crown Princess and his entourage.


    Seeing this, Jing Yuan bowed himself and went out of the palace with Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi returned to the carriage with a very complicated mood, and the carriage moved forward slowly. Looking at the grand departure of the honor guard of the crown prince of Teng Ju state, she angrily said to Jing Yuan, who was already lazily lying in the carriage drinking tea, "do you know?"


    "Know what?"


    "Prince, princess. And Wang Jialin! "


    "I don''t know." Jing Yuan said simply.


    Zhuo Xi leaned over and said definitely, "impossible!"


    "What do you want me to know? Don''t know what? "


    Zhuo Xi choked, "how can you not notice it in advance?"


    "There are clues, but I''m not sure. Now, isn''t it all clear? "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "unexpectedly, Jianrong is an undercover. As expected, his surname is Jian!" The whole Infernal Affairs.


    Jing Yuan said strangely, "what''s particular about surnames? I named Jianyi and Jianrong for them. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "did you take it? How did they get under your command? "


    "When master wuchenzi wanted to take ah Xin away, he was afraid that there was not enough strength to protect me, so he taught Zi ran a way to train dark guards and selected some close dark guards. Jianyi and Jianrong are the best in that batch. "


    "How long have they been with you?"


    Jing Yuan thought, "about five or six years."


    "The Grand Prince of a country has worked as a dark guard around you for six years without complaint and regret. This perseverance is really patient enough."


    "Maybe he didn''t know he was the prince of a country before. Ben Hou knew that his life experience was different. A few months ago, he found that he had some contacts with tengju people and suspected that he was a spy of tengju. Unexpectedly, he revealed his identity today and turned out to be the crown prince of a country. It can be seen that he is crazy for ah Xin. "


    "You said last time that his family had no permanent wealth and no fixed place to live. You couldn''t marry ah Xin to him. Now, he is the crown prince of a country. He is also elegant in court clothes. You should always promise to marry ah Xin to him? "


    Unexpectedly, Jing Yuan sighed, "ah Xin is just my junior sister, not my sister. I have no dominant power over her marriage. In the end, ah Xin has to decide by himself. "


    Zhuo Xi stares big eyes and dares to feel that his previous leisure has been in vain?


    Jing Yuan pulled her over, leaned over her and looked at her. "If you have time to worry about them, you might as well worry about being your husband."


    "What do you have to worry about?"


    "Now the engagement between Ben Hou and Wang Jialin has been dissolved, and you are no longer a junior. Is the reason Ben Hou said last time enough for you to promise to marry me? "


    "For what reason?" Zhuo Xi was a little itchy by his breath, dodging and deliberately asked.


    Jing Yuan looked at her steadily, his black eyes flashing a dangerous light, and asked word by word, "you, no, remember, get, get?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "I haven''t forgotten, I haven''t forgotten, but are you proposing now? Can you be serious and romantic? What''s going on? " She pointed to the tall body he was pressing on her.


    Jing Yuan sat up silently, with a hurt look on his face, leaned against the car wall, closed his eyes and said nothing more.


    Zhuo Xi also sat up, adjusted her skirt and joked, "is this a blow? It''s not like the style of Lord Guang''an. "


    "Ben Hou retreated in the face of difficulties. Why waste time and energy on a woman who can''t get it?" Jing Yuan said hard, his eyes still closed.


    Zhuo Xi came close to him and saw that his long eyelashes were clear and countable, and the tight corners of his lips exuded a chilling momentum. Zhuo Xi chuckled, quietly stretched out her tongue and licked it gently on his lips. Jing Yuan''s face moved, but his eyes were still closed and motionless. Zhuo Xi moved her lips to his earlobe, felt him tremble and said softly, "brother, do you think I''ve grown tall and fat recently?"


    Jing Yuan immediately opened his eyes, "what do you mean?" He really felt that she seemed to grow taller and feel plump in recent months.


    Zhuo Xi still stuck to his ear and said, "I was malnourished when I was a child, so I looked thin. In recent months, I grew faster with you. In fact, hyacinth took my pulse last time. She said, "it seems that I should be over sixteen."


    Jing Yuan immediately pressed her back on the car wall with a slightly hoarse voice, "are you teasing Ben Hou?"


    "Didn''t the Marquis retreat in the face of difficulties?" She giggled and put her hands around his neck.


    "It''s Ben Hou''s style to meet difficulties." He closed her open mouth with force, and his hand slipped in from the bottom of his skirt.


    "Brother, I, I seem to be the first time. It''s said that it hurts the first time. " She whispered again between gasps.


    Suddenly, he stopped all his movements, straightened up slowly, gathered the broken hair in her ear, sorted out her clothes, then sorted out his clothes, took a look at the small tent set up on his body, took a deep breath, and decided not to look at her again.


    Zhuo Xi opened her eyes and soon laughed.


    When the carriage stopped, Zi Ran said softly outside, "here you are, sir." With his clothes floating, the figure immediately disappeared.


    Zhuo Xi stopped laughing and opened the door curtain. Zi Ran had disappeared. She returned to her senses and laughed again. So Jing Yuan could only watch her get out of the carriage and walk into the Hou''s house in laughter, and he didn''t know how long to sit in the carriage.


    As soon as Zhuo Xi entered Hou''s house, he immediately noticed that there was a different smell in the house. Zi Ran quietly appeared beside her, looked around vigilantly and whispered, "girl, be careful, there are many experts around, at least more than ten people."


    "Unexpectedly, someone can clearly surround your Guang''an Marquis house?" It seems that the security work of Hou''s house needs a big question mark. She felt sick in her heart.


    "Strange." A voice sounded. Immediately, another figure appeared around her. She was startled and looked at it. It was easy. She hasn''t seen this guy for a long time since he became Jing Yuan''s dark guard. She then figured out why no one in the palace recognized Jianrong. It must be that he has always been a dark guard and rarely appeared in front of people. He forgot that others didn''t recognize him very much.


    "What''s strange?"


    "It seems that our people are still there, but there are more than a dozen strange breaths." Jian Yi said.


    Jing Yuan had followed up and coughed, "never mind, it should be his own."


    Zhuo Xi came in suspiciously all the way, and then went to the middle door of the inner yard. A bright figure floated over and hugged her, "Xi''er, you''re finally back."


    Zhuo Xi pushed her away with a single finger in disgust. "You are already the owner of famous flowers. Don''t take advantage of me."


    The hyacinth suddenly wanted to cry, "a group of them are bullying me. A weak woman, Xi''er, you don''t help me!"


    "You? Weak woman? " Zhuo Xi pointed at her in surprise and said, "what do you mean?"


    "I just went to the palace to play. He, he became crown prince tengju. You said, "how can I take revenge in the future?" As she spoke, she walked to the inner room next to Zhuo Xi.


    "Don''t you just want revenge? It''s not easy? "


    The hyacinth stared. "Now he is surrounded by dozens of people in and out. How to start?"


    Zhuo Xi waved to her and motioned to her ear, "as long as..."


    The wind immediately blushed, "did he bully me or did I bully him?"


    "It depends on how you define bullying. Besides, you have this imperial sword in your stomach. What are you afraid of? "


    "What is Shangfang sword?"


    Zhuo Xi didn''t answer. She suddenly stopped and stared at her for a long time. "Ah Xin, have you found any changes?"


    "Ah? Are there any? " Hyacinth stood up straight, threw his sleeves, tried to look like a jade tree facing the wind, looked down, he was still wearing women''s clothes, and sighed, "I''m too deep into the play."


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "it''s not that you''re too deep into the play, but that you''re a girl. Why pretend to be so tired?"


    Hyacinth immediately leaned down and hugged her, "forget it, let me hug. You know, I have one more in my stomach. I''m too tired. "


    Zhuo Xi looked around and had come to Furong''s house. The three men just behind him have long disappeared. It seems that Jianyi won''t appear here at this time.


    She took the hyacinth and sat down in the living room. She took out a small porcelain vase from her arms and patted her face. Seeing her smooth white porcelain cheeks, she couldn''t help pinching it, "ah Xin, look at this." Then she opened the lid of the porcelain bottle.


    "Eh," as soon as hyacinth smelled the smell in the bottle, he immediately cheered up, poured out two pills with different colors, smelled them, scraped them off with his fingernails and tasted them. He looked serious and different from just now, "where did this pill come from?"


    "This is the relic left to him by the Marquis''s mother imperial concubine. It is said to be the antidote of Tianhan incense."


    "That''s right. If it''s really an antidote, you can let the Marquis take the red one first, and then the black one in a quarter of an hour. "


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. "Is it really the antidote of tianhanxiang?"


    The hyacinth nodded, "originally, I went to the palace to find out the source of Tianhan fragrance. Because the clues of all Tianhan incense flowing out of the Jianghu were cut off at the palace, I suspect that Tianhan incense was made and used by people in the palace. If so, the antidote should also be in the palace. Unfortunately, I didn''t find the source of Tianhan fragrance, but I found the source of Ruo Wuxiang. "


    "If there is no fragrance?"


    "Yes. I tracked down the person who drugged me last time and found that it was Prince Yu who was behind it. "


    "Why did the crown prince give you medicine?"


    "If there is no fragrance, it is now the most popular drug in the black market. Long-term use is particularly harmful to women, ranging from death to loss of fertility. Although brothel prostitutes are legally operated, many women have been poisoned by this medicine since last year. Although the government strictly forbids the use of this medicine, those animal men still buy it through illegal channels, or even some noble concubines of the government are harmed by it. So I followed up all the way, hoping to find out the source of drug production and destroy it. I didn''t expect that the sun and moon were black and the wind was high. If I was careless, I was poisoned. "

 Chapter 63

    Zhuo Xi listened carefully and suddenly smiled, "ah Xin, do you think I only know you today? Will you trace the source of a kind of poison for the death of those prostitutes and concubines? " In this era, female slaves are inferior to domestic animals. Who cares about the life and death of those people?


    The hyacinth pounced on her ferociously and tried to hold her neck. Zhuo Xi had to slap her. Thinking of the baby in her belly, she had to hold her hand and pinch her face. "If anyone else in the world can command you, it''s only the marquis. Said, "did the Marquis ask you to check?"


    The hyacinth clapped her hand and covered her face with both hands. "Don''t be so clever, will you? What a shame. " She thought and raised her face again. "Why should I lose face alone? Throw it together. OK, I tell you, he sent me. He said, "last time I saw you in Huling villa, if there was no incense, I suspected that the source of the incense was related to the crown prince''s concubine, so let me collect evidence."


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "what''s so humiliating?"


    The hyacinth choked. "Several years ago, I went to Liangzhou with him and was trapped in wansha city. Both of us were poisoned because we were betrayed by people around us. Almost... Fortunately, Zi Ran found the antidote for us in time, so he escaped. So, the two of us are particularly sensitive to this fragrance. Who knows I can win the second time? Do you think I''m ashamed enough? "


    "I see. Today, in the palace, Wu Taiyi said that you were poisoned and took the antidote, so you have the ability to resist Ruo Wuxiang in Zhaode''s bedroom. "


    "No, in fact, if you detoxify with antidote, the toxin will not remain in the body, and it will still be poisoned the second time. Instead, it is another detoxification method, which will catalyze the transformation of toxins in the body into another toxin, so as to resist if there is no fragrance. But... "


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was raised again, "but what?"


    She touched her stomach. "If a woman has sex with a man, the toxin will be relieved, but her constitution will become extremely sensitive. She will be hungry and thirsty if she is provoked. Therefore, it is particularly easy to lead to infertility or slippery fetus. You know, not only men have blood essence, but women also have * *. If the loss of blood essence is too large, it is easy to lose life. "


    Zhuo Xi hugged her painfully, "I see. Sorry, I was in a hurry that day, so I had to... "


    The hyacinth blinked her wet eyes, "that day I knew that if I didn''t have an antidote, I might die of blood. But I really thought so at that time. I would rather die than become an easily provoked whore. Although I had never thought that I would marry and have children in my life, when I thought that this child might be the only child in my life, and I was lucky to survive, I could not live up to the fate arranged by God for me. "


    I see. Zhuo Xi hugged her. She can imagine that the proud and carefree hyacinth childe would rather die than have sex with a man to save his life if he had no fragrance in his body. Now, I''m afraid all her feminine side is because of the children in her belly? Once estrogen breaks out, which woman can resist the surge of gentle motherhood?


    In linyue Pavilion, Jing Yuan stepped into the hall and turned his back to the door.


    "Oh, it was Prince tengju who arrived. He lost his welcome."


    Jing Yuan sat on the main seat and Zi Ran was bringing tea. Jianrong, no, it''s called yinrong now. He immediately picked it up, held it respectfully in front of Jingyuan with both hands, and knelt down on one knee. However, he immediately noticed that there was a change in the surrounding air. He raised his hand and made a gesture, and then immediately said, "master, I''m sorry."


    "You have been relieved of your guard duty. I can''t afford to be your master. Besides, you are now the crown prince of a country. Get up quickly. "


    Yan Rong didn''t move, Jing Yuan motioned to Zi Ran, and Zi Ran walked over and said, "Your Highness, you''d better get up first." It took him a lot of effort to lift him up.


    Yan Rong knew that the past days were gone and looked at Zi Ran and said sadly, "Zi Ran, even you..."


    "Your Highness," Zi Ran saluted respectfully, "although I don''t know why you hide here, Zi Ran still hopes that the technology in the mine is not a secret. If you are still thinking about the past, don''t fall into injustice. " Once the secret is leaked, Jing Yuan will be charged with treason.


    Yan Rong''s eyes were wide open and angry, "do you think I''m a villain who sells for glory?"


    "Now Ben Hou is no longer your Lord. If you want to gain the trust of the Lord of the country with this secret skill and gain a firm foothold in tengju, there is nothing wrong with your position." Jing Yuan took a sip of tea and said faintly.


    "My Lord," Yan Rong called, and then changed his way, "Marquis, let me be taught by you and be greatly gracious. Although I only learned my true life experience last month, despite many struggles, I have to accept the crown prince for the sake of the wind. I''m afraid I won''t be able to serve you in the future. No matter what happens in the future, Rong will never do anything that will harm the marquis. "


    Jing Yuan glanced at the seat next to him and motioned him to sit down. "The prince hasn''t paid homage to the king with a formal state ceremony, but he drove to the Marquis house of Guang''an first, so he''s not afraid to provoke criticism from the court?" This kind of thing, spread to the suspicious King''s ears, can imagine the crime of collaborating with the enemy every minute.


    "The prince''s honor guard has returned to the post station first. If someone can find some trace, it can only be said that the crown princess came to the Hou house to live in nostalgia. In order to pursue the crown princess, the crown prince had to stay in the Hou house. "


    Zi Ran relaxed. With his skill and the skill of hyacinth, it shouldn''t be difficult to be noticed.


    Jing Yuan put down his tea cup and smiled, "so, what are you doing in my linyue pavilion? Your crown princess lives in the Hefeng hall. "


    Yan Rong hesitated, "Sir, I just saw her enter the lotus house. I know that Furong residence is... So I didn''t dare to go in... "


    Unknowingly, he restored his original title.


    Jing Yuan coughed and asked, "what are you going to do with ah Xin? Although you call her crown princess, we all know that she is not. "


    When Yan Rong heard that the time of loyalty had come, he was immediately refreshed, "Lord, please rest assured that although there is no matchmaker to marry, Feng ER has long been the only wife I identified, and my father has promised me their marriage. After returning to tengju, I will solemnly marry feng''er with the gift of imperial concubine Zheng. Another important thing for me this time is to propose marriage to the marquis. " He took out a brocade box hidden in his sleeve and was about to explain. Jing Yuan held his hand and said, "first, ah Xin is not from Hou''s house. It seems inappropriate for you to propose marriage to me. Second, you have declared to the world that the crown princess is pregnant. At this time, it seems even more inappropriate to hear the news of the proposed marriage. "


    Yan Rong was stunned. On the fifth day of the ninth day, he had to be summoned by the Marquis to know that the wind was disguised into the king''s palace and lived in the king''s bedroom for five days. He wanted to break his heart and thought she wanted to be prosperous, but he couldn''t wait for him to show his identity. He was anxious and angry. He broke into Zhaode hall and hurriedly claimed that the rumor was his crown princess and her pregnancy, but he was afraid that Jing would not let people go. Later, I learned that the rumor skillfully set up a bureau in those five days, just to terminate Jing Yuan''s engagement. I was happy that I was unharmed. So I hurried to the Hou''s house to propose marriage, but I didn''t think how much gossip it would bring to the wind.


    He scratched his head, "that..."


    Jing Yuan patted his hand, "you are now the crown prince. You can''t do this again. A Xin always has her own opinion. You''d better ask her about your marriage. As long as she agrees, ostentation or something, Ben Hou believes she may not mind. "


    Yan Rong opened his mouth and lowered his head in frustration. He also knew that it was her problem. He couldn''t get close to her now. After a while, he looked up and asked carefully, "Lord Hou, you are her senior brother. They say that the elder brother is like a father. You can''t decide her marriage?"


    Jing Yuan laughed and spread his hands, "you know, Ben Hou is just a senior brother. Besides, who is she? She is a hyacinth! "


    The last four words slapped Yan Rong. He stood up dejected. "Then I''d better wait for her outside Furong''s house."


    Jing Yuan also stood up and sighed, "well, Ben Hou will help you for the last time."


    Yan Rong''s eyes lit up, and he only listened to his instructions. "It''s not early, set up a dinner to entertain the crown prince, and then invite Miss Zhuo Xi and the hyacinth childe to have dinner."


    At the dinner table, Jing Yuan and Yin Rong sat in the north, Zhuo Xi and hyacinth sat in the hands, and Zi Ran and his servants who came to serve had already fled in the hyacinth''s murderous eyes.


    Yan Rong looked at hyacinth''s gloomy face, his ass couldn''t help moving here, looked at the dishes on the table, stretched out his chopsticks to clip a piece of braised meat into hyacinth''s bowl.


    Hyacinth "pa" put down his chopsticks, reached for a spoon and put it in a small bowl. He took a big steamed bun and tore it to pieces. While tearing it, he asked Zhuo Xi, "Xi''er, you said, how many ways to break a person into pieces?"


    Zhuo Xi was chewing a piece of braised meat in her mouth. When she heard the speech, she swallowed vigorously. "Sister, childe, how many years have you been wandering the Jianghu?"


    The hyacinth looked at her and said, "it''s about fifteen or six years."


    Zhuo Xi asked in surprise, "did you come out to wander the Jianghu when you were three?"


    The hyacinth stretched out a palm, "five years old."


    "Well, you are a young hyacinth who has heard of the change of the wind in the Jianghu. After fifteen or six years, you have killed countless people, but you come to ask me, a good girl, how to kill?"


    The hyacinth thought, "in the past, I killed many people with one move or poisoned. Now it''s really boring to think about it. But there is an enemy in front of me. It annoys me every day. I have to think of at least 30 ways to torture him before he can swallow his breath. Otherwise, how can I eliminate my hatred? Xi''er, give me some advice. "


    Yan Rong on one side was more and more pale, and his ass moved back, and his back slowly collapsed.


    Jing Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said to the wind, "younger martial sister, at least you should save some face for the master, so that the world will not think that the disciples of wuchenzi are murderous and cruel."


    The source said, "master, he has you, a famous Marquis, to honor her ancestors. I just want to live my life. Besides, revenge and gratitude are the first creed master taught us. Elder martial brother won''t even forget this? "


    Yan Rong said sympathetically, "yes, Yan Jing did. I think you can only be angry at her broken body. "


    Zhuo Xi also said, "judging by common sense, tearing, pulling, twisting or cutting, cutting, stabbing and chopping with tools can break a person into pieces. Why don''t you ask your highness, which one do you like? "


    Yan Rong blackened his face and said slowly, "if you really want me to choose, you might as well cook me a stew and add a little nutrition to your baby."


    Zhuo Xi nodded. "It is said that there is a highly poisonous spider named black widow. After pregnancy, she makes a living by sucking her husband''s body. Oh, your highness, how can you be so vicious? Want my ah Xin to carry the bad name of black widow? "


    Yan Rong''s eyes were black again, and he could not see the cold face of Feng Xin, so he clenched his teeth and broke out, "as long as the wind can vent his anger, let''s deal with it. I''ll let them all go back. " Then he got up and went out.


    Zhuo Xi smiled to herself. As expected, she was a Taoist, "very good. A Xin, without those dark guards, it''s up to you whether you fry or fry. Shall I prepare you some spices? " She asked kindly.


    The wind whispered coldly, "are there those dark guards that I don''t care about?"


    "Of course, but it''s better to cook him quietly than those flies flying in to make trouble when killing and setting fire on a dark night, don''t you think?"


    The hyacinth nodded reluctantly, "you''re right. I don''t need any spices. Last time I saw you hiding in the house to eat mutton, the hot pot is very good. Lend it to me. And the knife and fork you use when eating steak. It''s very convenient to cut big meat. By the way, let Xianglan take it to my room. "


    Yan Rong, who had just ordered to enter the door, heard this, and his eyes were dark again. He silently returned to his seat and ate dinner tastelessly.


    Jing Yuan took a jar of wine from the desk behind him, opened it and poured him a bowl, "brother, now Ben hou can only lend you some wine. If you can get drunk, try to get drunk."


    Yan Rong pushed away the wine bowl, directly picked up the wine jar, poured it into his mouth and shouted, "life is like a dream - how ruthless - I have blood - until death!"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and said vaguely, "it''s still quite literary."


    The hyacinth looked at her contemptuously, "it''s hard to be a big thing."


    Then she picked up the towel, tucked in the corners of her mouth, got up gracefully, and threw down a sentence, "Jianrong, I washed myself in three minutes."

 Chapter 64

    Zhuo Xi wanted to ask, "what time is the quarter past eight?" But she knew that no one could answer, so she swallowed the question and went back to Furong house. She heard a sound in Xianglan''s room on the first floor, and it was very lively. She walked over and saw her door open. Qumeng actually held Xiaobai to chat with them in Xianglan''s room. Surprised, it was obvious that she liked Xiaobai very much and was teasing it with a small piece of cake. Zhuo Xi happily hugged Xiaobai and remembered that it was too late to give Jingyuan the antidote. Although she believed in hyacinth, she confirmed it to Xiaobai and let Xiaobai know that hyacinth would no longer think of taking its courage into medicine.


    So she happily took out the antidote from her arms. As soon as she opened it, Xiaobai immediately jumped up and jumped far away from her. Zhuo Xi approached it carefully, but Xiaobai shrank farther and farther. When Meng saw him, he rushed over and burst into tears. "Sister, Xiaobai cried."


    Zhuo Xi took a closer look. Sure enough, Xiaobai''s eyes were wet and kept twisting and struggling. It seemed very painful, "Xiaobai, what''s the matter with you?"


    Xianglan went over and put away the porcelain vase for her. As soon as he put it away, Xiaobai stopped struggling. Zhuo Xi stroked it gently. "Don''t be afraid, don''t be afraid. The pill was obtained from the palace, not from us. "


    Xiaobai raised her head, blinked and tears rolled down.


    Zhuo Xi asked it, "you recognize this pill, don''t you?"


    Xiaobai nodded.


    "This pill can relieve the cold fragrance on the Marquis, right?"


    Xiaobai nodded again. Xianglan on one side was not calm. "Did the Marquis get the Tianhan fragrance? When did it happen? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the tears on qumeng''s face and remembered that Fengxin had said that the antidote was made of its snake gall. That is...


    Zhuo Xi stroked it, "Xiaobai, there must be your relatives in the pill. Don''t be sad. We are all your relatives. "


    Go to Meng, hold Xiaobai and nod vigorously, "yes, they are all your relatives."


    Xianglan said, "Tianhan fragrance is the secret medicine in the palace. The antidote is very difficult to find. It''s said that only one kind of snake gall named Snow beetle is made into a medicine guide, supplemented by the antidote of 36 other herbs can really detoxify this poison. Can it be said that Xiaobai is this kind of snow


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "exactly. Previously, the hyacinth had traveled all over the snow covered plateau in the north, but could not find the snow beetle. Unexpectedly, the snow beetle was raised in the palace. " She remembered that her true self came out of the palace, and she must also bring out the snow beetle from the palace.


    Xianglan said, "good. Tianhan incense is the royal secret medicine of our Yu family. People who make medicine need to find a good antidote at the same time. I just don''t know how the royal family learned the secret recipe. "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment, "is it possible that there are people of Yu family in the Wuliang palace?"


    Xianglan''s eyes brightened, "even if it''s not a family member of the Yu family, it may be an old member of the Yu family."


    "By the way, sister," said Zhuo Xi, "are all the things I asked you to prepare the other day ready?"


    Xianglan nodded, "sister, we''re all ready. However, why do you want so many Chinese herbal medicines such as red beans and plantain seeds? And many snakes, insects, rats and ants? "


    "Sister, after the Shangyuan Festival, our Feiyu drunken Yuxuan semicolon will begin to prepare. In these two days, you will gather all the sisters who can get out of Kyoto, especially those who are still suffering for slaves and maidservants. If you need to buy a ransom, you can draw up a list. We will train them well together in the next seven or eight days. Take them to Shangzhou first, and then take them home. When they are proficient in their business, you can choose some who can take charge of it, and then send them to Hanzhou, Wuzhou and other places to open semicolons. My plan is to open ten semicolons to the East and north of Kyoto this year. "


    Xianglan heard her tears turn red, and the surprised words on one side didn''t make a sound. At this time, she suddenly fell down on her knees with a thump and knocked her head three times. Zhuo Xi was startled. "Get up quickly, what are you doing?!"


    Surprised, he burst into tears. "Miss, we are either abandoned from childhood or orphans without parents. We are all killed by the feather door when we are desperate. We provide basic food and clothing to keep warm and wrap our belly. Although we also need to come out to earn some meager months for slaves and maidservants, we are full of gratitude to the feather door and have no regrets. Sister Xianglan is your master, and she also needs to be a slave. The sisters have been living together for many years and have deep feelings. Sometimes I can''t bear to think of some sisters suffering in a cage. Now, listening to the girl''s arrangement, there are bound to be many sisters who can get out of the sea of suffering and say thank you for their great kindness. "


    Xianglan is also full of tears. She wipes the tears from the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief.


    Zhuo Xi was filled with emotion after hearing this. She just needed some convenient and trustworthy labor. Instead of buying people she didn''t know outside, she might as well buy back the people they knew directly. Loyalty needless to say, with Xianglan, management must get twice the result with half the effort. Unexpectedly, it attracted their tears. She felt ashamed. She was a little unkind, so she blushed, "Come on. If this is done, I suggest that you can set up a fund to draw out 10% of everyone''s monthly cases every month and put them uniformly in the feather door for distribution, so as to maintain the operation of the feather door. Xianglan, you know, our monthly practice of Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan is not low. It shouldn''t be difficult to draw out 10%


    Xianglan said in surprise, "my sister is really smart. In this way, the feather clothes gate can adopt more girls and better teach them some talents and martial arts. "


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand and didn''t want to participate in the affairs of the feather gate too much, "let''s do it. Two days is enough for you? "


    "It should be OK. Let''s first send the news to the sisters and let them find their mistakes and sell them. It''s easy to make one or two small mistakes during the new year''s festival. Then buy from the children of others and pick out all our people. "


    "This method is feasible, but we should tell them to be careful and not to be self defeating."


    "Yes. But there are some sisters... "Xianglan looked pale.


    "What?"


    "Jing Yan, come on." Xianglan really didn''t want to speak.


    The surprised words blessed the body, "girl, there are some sisters who wander in the flower streets and willows to do some flesh business. They are all hard-earned people."


    Although Zhuo Xi was prepared, she couldn''t help asking, "isn''t there a martial arts professor in the feather clothes door? Why do they get stuck and can''t get out? "


    Xianglan said with a wry smile, "not all the girls adopted by the feather gate are qualified to practice martial arts. Some girls have no slave documents, and they can''t find their master''s house to make new documents for them. They are forced to become prostitutes. "


    It turned out to be a black hukou.


    "In that case, don''t worry. You should contact each other first to find out where they are, the redemption price, or have other requirements. First collect the list, and we will discuss it later. "


    Seeing that they had to salute again to show their thanks, Zhuo Xi quickly yawned, "Hey, I''m so sleepy. I''m going upstairs to bed. "


    When he raised his feet to leave, he found that qumeng was still playing with Xiaobai on the big Kang. He said strangely, "Xiaomeng, why don''t you go back and have a rest?"


    Go to Meng with a sad face, "Hyacinth childe, no, hyacinth sister kicked me out and said I couldn''t stay in Hefeng Hall tonight. I''m going to spend the night with sister Xianglan. "


    She looked at Xianglan. "Is his original room still empty?"


    Xianglan hurriedly said, "his room hasn''t been occupied for a long time and hasn''t been cleaned. It''s cold and cold. It''s troublesome and wasteful to start the Kang again. And I feel very kind to go to Meng. He is a child again. Just squeeze with me all night. "


    Zhuo Xi was a little guilty about breaking up their sister and brother. It was not good to interrupt their closeness, so she nodded and walked upstairs.


    As soon as she entered the room, she smelled a smell of wine. She said angrily, "it''s not that you want to be cooked and cut. What wine do you drink?"


    Jing Yuan hugged her from behind with the smell of wine and leaned his head on her shoulder. "Wine makes people brave."


    "What courage do you want?"


    "Color gall." Jing Yuan said vaguely.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, pressed his hand and asked, "when is the third quarter of Xu hour?"


    He looked up at the window. "I guess it''s coming."


    "Really?" She turned around, pulled him up and ran out.


    "Where are you going?"


    "Hefeng hall."


    Jing Yuan quickly stopped, "I won''t go."


    "Won''t you go?" Zhuo Xi turned her head and looked at him funny.


    "No." He pushed up again, as if unsteady, and put his head on her shoulder.


    "Why?"


    "You are not allowed to see other men." He whispered.


    "That''s not a man, it''s human hotpot." Zhuo Xi opened her mouth slightly and took a breath, just like a vampire who kidnapped a child.


    Jing Yuan opened his eyes in horror. After thinking for a while, he asked, "is human meat hot pot delicious?"


    "Delicious. Very delicious. Good, let''s go and see if we can have some leftover soup? "


    After a moment of silence, he said with a mouthful, "all right."


    "You take me to fly. Hurry up."


    "OK."


    "That''s good."


    So they quickly flew to the door of Hefeng hall. Zhuo Xi listened and was quiet all around. She knew that the dark guard didn''t have to guard this place on weekdays. They went to the room where the hyacinth lived on the second floor and looked. It was dark and there was no movement at all. She was wondering when she heard a groan upstairs. She immediately pulled Jing Yuan up the stairs, but saw a man pestling at the entrance of the stairs and asked, "why, are you here to listen to the foot of the wall or to save people?"


    Zhuo Xi looked up and said with a smile, "ha ha, neither. Yes, I came to see if I could take a share. "


    Once the long sleeves of hyacinth were thrown, it brought out a palm wind, "roll."


    Jing Yuan turned around conditionally holding Zhuo Xi and jumped a few feet away.


    For a long time, a "pa" sound came from the trees next to the Hefeng hall. After a while, another "pa" sound came.


    Jing Yuan, who was awakened by the shooting, opened his misty eyes, "where are the mosquitoes? It''s freezing. Where did the mosquito come from? "


    Zhuo Xi patted her hands. "It''s not a mosquito. I want you to wake up."


    "Let''s go back to the cold house, madam."


    "Jianrong is dying. Can you still sleep?"


    He immediately woke up, "what''s the room? What happened to the room? "


    "Did you hear anything upstairs?"

 Chapter 65

    "Yes." He listened to the report for a while and said, "there is a man moaning."


    "..." Zhuo Xi murmured, "where are they, where are they?"


    "No, he seems to groan in pain."


    "What else is there?"


    "There was the sound of water boiling, the sound of matches burning, and the sound of a man adding water." It must be the stove on the third floor. Zhuo Xi thought about the stove that supplies hot water on the first to third floors on weekdays. A cold sweat came out, "Hyacinth won''t really cook him?"


    He listened again. "Someone drank a mouthful."


    to eat soup? Zhuo Xi was in a hurry and grabbed his hand. "Let''s go up and have a look."


    He added, "it seems that someone cut something with a knife."


    "Come on! Fly me up. "


    "OK." He hugged her reluctantly and jumped up to the third floor. When he was close to the railing of the balcony on the third floor, a cup flew face-to-face with full killing intention. He raised his sleeve to block it, and the whole person was pushed back by the power of the cup. He had to turn two circles in the air with Zhuo Xi. It was impossible to rise, so he had to land slowly.


    Zhuo Xi anxiously looked up and hated why she had built the floor so high that she couldn''t even find a commanding height.


    He suddenly said, "you can go to the third floor of Furong house, and maybe you can see the scene here."


    When she thought about it, there was indeed some permission. So he urged him to take her back to the third floor of Furong house.


    Along the way, they went to the top of the tallest building in Furong house. Zhuo Xi looked into the distance. Hefeng hall was a little far away. They could only see a faint fire on the third floor over there, and nothing else.


    I can only count on him, "what do you see?"


    "There is a man lying in the pot, naked."


    "Dead?"


    He looked for a moment. "It doesn''t seem to be. His hand is still moving."


    "Are you hurt?"


    "I can''t see." Indeed, if you cut your body one or two times, you really can''t see it at such a long distance.


    "What is hyacinth doing?"


    "She''s holding a cup and drinking water in the room."


    "Eh?" She was a little relieved. If she could feed him water, she wouldn''t kill him, would she?


    "Can you see that there is a fire in the stove?"


    "There was only one oil lamp nearby, and there was no fire in other places."


    That''s okay. Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief.


    He snuggled up again and trembled, "madam, don''t worry? It''s so cold for my husband. Shall we go back to the big Kang? "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. He forgot the unresolved Tianhan fragrance in his body, shook his cold hand, nodded and said, "OK, we''ll go back now."


    He took out the red pill and gave it to the thermos. "He took it out of the thermos and poured it out again."


    He leaned on the bed, his eyes blurred. "What''s this?"


    "Poison."


    "Oh." He obediently took the water and pills, looked up and swallowed them¡° What poison? "


    Zhuo Xi pulled the quilt and let him lie down, saying, "seven days of broken intestines grass."


    "Seven days before I break my heart? It seems to be painful. " He had closed his eyes and whispered.


    Zhuo Xi turned to remove the hairpin ring on her head, took a look at the carving leakage by the wall, wrote down the time, and lay down with her clothes, "yes, so you can''t sleep. You can''t feel anything when you fall asleep. "


    "Does Xi''er want me to suffer?" He turned and hugged her, his hands and feet cold.


    She said faintly, "life is full of flavors, and the most difficult thing is pain. Noble Lord, I want to see where your limit is. Do you mind being my medicine man? "


    "So it''s a medicine man? Don''t mind, don''t mind. As long as it''s what Xier needs, I''ll help you finish it even if I die. "


    "Then tell me, what''s the most painful thing you''ve ever felt in your life?"


    "Three times."


    "Huh?"


    "The first time I was trapped in wansha city that year, and I fell in Ruo Wuxiang with hyacinth. We are very sorry that we haven''t enjoyed the pleasure of fish and water in our life. When we are poisoned, we can only detoxify it through cold spring water. At that time, the enemy also brought the news of my mother''s death. I was in great pain because of internal and external difficulties. I almost didn''t get cold spring water. Fortunately, Zi Ran broke through the encirclement and contracted the datan army from the outside. Only then did he solve the difficulties of wansha city and send us an antidote. "


    "You two can detoxify yourself."


    "At that time, I didn''t know that ah Xin was a woman. The two big men, hiding in the cold spring, agreed that if they went out alive, they must catch 18 female slaves to have a good experience. I don''t know why I forgot this last words. "


    "What about the second time?"


    "The second time was the sudden death of my father. At that time, I was supervising the construction of the king''s mausoleum. I suddenly heard the news of my death. It was difficult for me to control myself. When the mother imperial concubine left, I didn''t see the last side. When the father left, it was the same again. It''s unfilial to be a minister and a close relative dies without coming to his side. " She felt liquid flowing into her neck, stretched out her outer hand and stroked his back.


    "The third time, today in the carriage, I asked you, will you marry me? You talk about it. At that moment, "he stopped, spewing thick liquid from his mouth. Zhuo Xi felt a heat in her chest. When she opened her eyes and saw the bright red blood, she couldn''t help but be surprised. She quickly got up and helped him up. He pushed her away, fell on the side of the bed and spit out two mouthfuls of blood towards the ground. He struggled to look at her, "Xi''er, do you know how painful I am?"


    A joke of his own made him as painful as the death of his close relatives? She knelt down by the bed, wiped the corners of his mouth with her sleeve, regretted it, and said painfully, "don''t talk, you have a rest. Just a minute. I lied to you. This is not seven day heartbroken grass. "


    He turned over slowly and leaned against the head of the bed. His face and chest were full of blood. Zhuo Xi knew that he would be fine, but he was still flustered. He said, "this is actually the antidote of tianhanxiang. You should believe me. Just a minute. "


    He took a deep breath. "No. Don''t lie to me again. In fact, you want me to die, I already know. When I die, you can live a completely free life, right? What you tease me in the daytime is to make me put down my vigilance so that you can start, right? "


    Zhuo Xi was crazy. "Don''t look like you''re dying. It''s not poison. I never wanted you to die. How do you want me to say you believe it?"


    "Well, well, Xi''er, I believe you are." He looked weak and said intermittently, "Xi''er, the antidote of tianhanxiang will only make people unconscious and will not make people vomit blood. Only the fragrance of heaven can make people cough up blood all the time. "


    Is the antidote fake? Impossible, but why didn''t Fengxin tell her that the medicine was so powerful? Think about it again. After Xiaobai''s identification, her heart was determined again. "This is really the antidote of tianhanxiang. I don''t know why I coughed up blood. Maybe it''s still a while. Hold on."


    "For the sake of my dying, Xi''er, tell me, have you ever liked me?" He grabbed the clothes on his chest. Zhuo Xi looked like he was pulling on his heart, jumped up and hugged him and blurted out, "yes, I like you, I like you very much. You won''t die. "


    Knowing that she couldn''t see, the smile on his face grinned to his mouth, but he said, "Xi''er, you lied to me. I''m dying. I''ve been out of trouble since wansha city. Although I''ve lived in vain for so long, I still haven''t made up for that regret. Even hyacinth has a baby. Think of me, I really failed... "


    "You won''t leave this regret. You''ll live. Don''t say any more. "


    "Really?" He said stiffly, buried in her chest.


    "Really. As long as you get better, we will... "


    Is that what you mean? Is she ready in the carriage today? He lowered his eyes, suddenly pushed her away, fell on the edge of the bed and vomited blood.


    Zhuo Xi''s hands were covered with blood. He didn''t know how to comfort him, so he had to grab one side''s clothes and gently wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth for him.


    "Xi''er, I''m dying. Can you promise me a request?"


    Zhuo Xi''s tears began to collapse. "Trust me, you won''t die. What do you want? "


    "Xi''er, the blood vomited well today. You see, you are already dressed in red, and I am also red. Well, let''s, let''s just worship heaven and earth? I, I want the sky and the moon to know that I must marry you. No, not because of the antidote, not because of others, just because, because I love you. "


    Zhuo Xi had burst into tears, "you, don''t say any more."


    "Xi''er, promise me, promise me." He leaned powerlessly against her, and both of them were bright red.


    Listening to his heavy breathing, her mouth spewed out blood one after another. She never knew that she had such a nervous moment, and casually said, "I promise you, I promise you. Bear it and stop talking. "


    "No, no, I''m so happy." He struggled and put the back of his hand on his mouth. As a result, his face was covered with blood. He saw Zhuo Xi in tears and wiped her tears with his hand, but he also covered her cheeks with blood.


    He coughed and laughed, "ha ha, that''s good. OK, it looks like rouge. We''ll just, just be a pair of desperate, desperate mandarin ducks. No, no, I was wrong. It''s good if I die. After I die, you can continue to love another person, find your wolf and remarry... "


    Zhuo Xi burst into tears. "Don''t talk nonsense. Where is the wolf and where is the other person?"


    "Well, I, I don''t talk nonsense. You, don''t cry. Let''s worship heaven and earth. " He struggled to pull her to kneel on the ground and raised his hands above his head. "The bright moon is on the sky, I, Jingyuan." he looked at her and she realized, "I, Zhuo Xi", he continued, "I would like to be a husband and wife in this life, not to share life and death, but to stay together." Zhuo Xi mechanically followed him and repeated, "I don''t want to share life and death, but I don''t want to leave." She had no idea how she worshipped the absurd world with blood at such an absurd moment. When he leaned powerlessly against her, she quickly raised her head and glanced at the leakage by the wall. When it was time, she quickly picked him up, snuggled him to the bed, took out the black pill and stuffed it into his mouth. She took water from the table and helped him drink it.


    After drinking, he lay in bed panting and said, "Xi''er, my head is dizzy, but I''m very happy, really."


    "Now you have a good sleep and you''ll be fine when you wake up."


    "Hehe, although I know you are comforting me. But I''m really glad you finally married me. Sorry, I didn''t give you a big wedding. "


    "What I said is true. Now the pill works. Go to sleep." Zhuo Xi is going crazy again.


    "Will I be unable to wake up as soon as I sleep?" He took her hand.


    "No, no, you believe me."


    "I may not wake up. Xi''er, I have no regrets. After my death, all the property, people and slaves in the Marquis house are at your sole disposal. My seals are in the small bag on the table. You, you can write a will and seal those seals. After that, you are free to do whatever you want. Madam, before I die, I have only one request. Can you kiss me? "


    "Zhuo Xi fought with heaven and man.


    He struggled to get up, "Xi''er, I''m dying. Don''t you want to kiss me?"


    She quickly pressed his shoulder, let him lie down, and slowly put her lips close to his. Suddenly she felt her neck tighten and her head pulled against him.


    He took a long sigh of relief, slowly tasted the honey in her mouth, and then he didn''t know when he was ignorant.


    For a long time, Zhuo Xi got up from him and saw a smile on his completely unconscious face. She looked at it for a long time and suspected that she had been deceived by him again.


    The next morning, as soon as Zhuo Xi woke up, he immediately jumped up, looked at the unconscious person on the bed, quickly changed his clothes and pushed the door out. Zi Ran waited downstairs, waiting to serve the Lord. He saw that Zhuo Xi came downstairs alone, looked behind her and said strangely, "girl, why are you alone? What about you? " As usual, Hou Ye was earlier than her, but today he came back.


    She said, "your Lord took tianhanxiang antidote yesterday and couldn''t wake up for a moment. Come back when he wakes up tomorrow. "


    "Tian Han Xiang antidote?" Zi Ran was overjoyed. "What the girl said is true?"


    She nodded. "It''s true. We found the relics of imperial concubine Xianru in the palace a few days ago. There is an antidote in it. "


    Zi Ran was very surprised, "I see! If the heaven cold fragrance on my body is exhausted, I will no longer suffer from the full moon. Over the past 20 years, I have finally come through all my hardships and joys. "


    She said strangely, "I''ve been poisoned for more than 20 years? It''s not that those who smell cold in the sky will gradually freeze and die if there is no antidote within a year? " That''s what the hyacinth said?


    "Don''t you know, girl? The Tianhan fragrance on my body is actually the poison taken by imperial concubine Xianru when she was pregnant with the Lord. Later, although imperial concubine Xianru found the antidote and took it, many residual poisons have invaded my body. Therefore, it can be said that the poison on my body is carried at birth, and there is no one-year deadline. "


    "So, in the near future, there will be no risk of life?" Zhuo Xi gnashed her teeth.


    "Probably not." Zi Ran looked at her ferocious face and was startled. "Does the girl doubt anything?"


    "I doubt," she said word for word, "that he would die. Don''t you go and avenge him? "


    Zi Ran was startled again. "What did you say, girl?"


    "Didn''t you hear ah Xin say he was going to cook his body to pieces last night?"


    "Ah?!"


    "Take your weapons and kill with me to Hefeng hall!" Zhuo Xifeng ran out angrily, and didn''t even take a look at breakfast.


    Zi Ran didn''t have time to ask more questions and quickly followed.

 Chapter 66

    Zhuo Xi with Zi Ran kicked open the door of Hefeng hall and went straight to the stove on the third floor.


    The stairs from the second floor to the third floor were stained with blood, and her heart sank all the time. When we arrived at the stove on the third floor, it was a mess. The water and blood on the ground were mixed, and some meat slices were scattered in the small hot pot on one side. The knife and fork she lent to hyacinth was discarded at will. She looked carefully. Fortunately, she didn''t find any suspicious bones. Her heart loosened and rushed to the second floor. She raised her foot to kick the door of the hyacinth room, but the door opened gently from the inside.


    Zi Ran looked behind her and turned away in a hurry. He didn''t dare to look any more.


    Zhuo Xi stepped into the room, her eyes adapted to the indoor light, and saw the hyacinth sitting at the table with only Chinese clothes. When the hyacinth saw her coming in, he waved his sleeve and the door closed with a squeak.


    "You look like you''re asking for a crime. Come to defend Jianrong against injustice?" They are still used to calling him Jianrong. Anyway, they all know his belly name.


    "What about the room capacity?" Zhuo Xi was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and asked directly.


    "You''re late."


    "What does it mean to be late?" Zhuo Xi stared round.


    "It''s too late."


    Zhuo Xi stared at her drinking tea with a water cup. Although she only wore Chinese clothes, she looked more beautiful, and said slowly, "I don''t believe it. You really have the nature of revenge, but you also have the grace to repay. He saved you anyway. How can you really kill him? "


    "Who said he was going to kill him?"


    "Aren''t you going to tear him to pieces?"


    "Indeed, he was poisoned by me, cooked in the soup, died once, and was broken into ten thousand pieces by me. I took revenge. Now that he has taken the antidote, I can repay him by reconnecting the broken bones of his whole body. You said, "do I have to repay my revenge and repay my kindness?"


    Zhuo Xi''s scalp was numb and asked carefully, "haven''t I offended you?"


    "Does it count to ask Jianrong to save me?"


    "So you lied to me that Jing Yuan had only ten days left?"


    "Did I lie to you?"


    "Jing Yuan is obviously the poison of heaven cold fragrance brought from the womb. How was it a year ago? If not, why a year? "


    The hyacinth shrugged and said indifferently, "all right. Since you see through, even if I avenge myself. I won''t mention it again. "


    Zhuo Xi was about to kneel down. She bowed deeply, "thank you, sister. You can rest easy from now on. "


    "Whether the high pillow can be carefree depends on your performance."


    She froze. "What do you mean?"


    Hyacinth smiled charmingly, "why did you kick the gate of Hefeng hall today and come here in a fierce manner?"


    "Well," she said with a long sigh, "I see. Jianrong has removed his guard post and will not be in my charge in the future. I won''t ask about him again."


    Fengxin nodded with satisfaction, "tell everyone outside that Jianrong will be my person in the future. Anyone else who wants to find him should ask me first."


    Zi Ran Sheng, who had been waiting outside the door, shivered.


    Zhuo Xi nodded clearly, "as a friend, can I have a look at his situation?"


    "Yes." The hyacinth swept the bed curtain.


    She stepped forward carefully, even if she was prepared for the worst. When she saw Yin''s motionless face wrapped in wood lying in bed, she couldn''t help but sour her nose. After all, he was also the dark guard around him. He had many contacts in the mine. Although compared with Ziran, Guanghua was not so prosperous, he was also a talented person and talked and laughed. Now I''m lying in bed like a dead man, covered with bandages and breathing so shallow that I seem to leave the world accidentally.


    She couldn''t speak any more and didn''t know what to say. She suddenly felt that she should bear most of the responsibility. After all, she ordered him to save people at that time. The development afterwards was beyond her expectation, and the outcome was even more beyond her expectation. She took a deep breath and was ready to argue with the wind theory again. When she turned around, she saw her tears streaming down her face.


    What a contradictory person, Zhuo Xi sighed and turned to go out, but she was hugged by the hyacinth.


    She began to sob gently, then became louder and louder, and finally became a big cry. Zhuo Xi was a head shorter than her, and her whole shoulder was tightly bound under her iron hand. She gritted her teeth until the wind gradually stopped crying, and then broke free of her arm.


    "You are so sad that you have to think about your baby, not for yourself. It is said that the baby feels that his mother cries more often and will become a crying child in the future. You have to laugh more and watch others laugh, and the child will become very cute. "


    The hyacinth stopped crying, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and moistened a piece on his long eyelashes, "I don''t know what''s wrong. Since I had a baby, I''ve become kind and soft."


    "Tenderness and love are a woman''s nature, not to mention that you are a mother now. Women are born with motherhood, and pregnancy will make your motherhood surge. Why do you have to look like you have a heart of stone? "


    "When I was five years old, I wandered the Jianghu with my master. I have experienced many cruel and cruel things, and I have seen many people who abandon their wives and children and are ungrateful. I feel that there is no one in the world who can treat each other with true feelings and trust except the educated master and the senior brother who grew up together since childhood. After that night, I vowed to tear the man to pieces. But last night, I couldn''t do anything hard. I could only break his bones inch by inch and help him splice them one by one. Xi''er, do you think he will hate me when he wakes up? If the child knew how I treated his father in the future, would he hate me? "


    "Ah Xin, you say that there is no one who is sincere except master and senior brother. I ask you, what about me? What am I to you? "


    The hyacinth was stunned. It seemed that he had never thought about it. "You... You are the person next to elder martial brother''s pillow. You are the person I can trust."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. She didn''t know that she should answer like this. She said with a black face, "that room Rong is also a trusted person of your senior brother. Do you believe him?"


    The hyacinth laughed, "how do you compare the person beside your pillow with the person you trust?"


    "A trustworthy person may not be the one beside the pillow, but is the one beside the pillow trustworthy? How many people on the king''s pillow have you seen in the palace? Which one was delivered with sincerity? " Zhuo Xi said slowly.


    "So you can''t be trusted?"


    Zhuo Xi coaxed, "don''t take your elder martial brother as a reference, just ask your own heart and abandon the influence of your elder martial brother. Do you have such a little sense of trust in me?"


    She thought and nodded, "although I didn''t like you very much at first, I never doubted you. You give people a sense of trust. "


    "I mean, you''re starting to like me now?"


    The hyacinth nodded, "it should be. I''ve never allowed anyone to come within three steps of me before, but I like to hold you and sleep in the same bed with you. "


    Zhuo Xi got goose bumps. Knowing that she just knew all kinds of emotions between people, she asked, "what about the room? When you were in the palace that day, you took the initiative to take his hand out of the palace. Does that mean you don''t reject physical contact with him? "


    "That''s just a way out. It''s a last resort." The wind said.


    "What about last night? Did you make physical contact with him before you broke his bone? If so, how do you feel? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at hyacinth''s face and gradually turned red. She thought that she was a psychologist. In order to open her heart knot, she should explain clearly, "he was forced to save you in that way that day. But in the early morning of that day, he just received a secret signal from Jingyuan''s personal guard and needed to go out of the city to receive the secret letter. So you didn''t see him when you woke up. When he came back, I heard you telling me to find the man''s broken body. Do you remember when he came in and sent me a letter? Then he wanted to tell the truth. I stopped him. Although he knew that you only hated him, he gave you small gifts for three days in a row. The purple jade hairpin was actually a portable jade ornament he had brought with him, which seemed to be related to his life experience. He had no possessions and wanted to give you a decent gift, so he had to take the jade ornament to Zuoyu Pavilion and carve it carefully. I don''t know if it was because of this that he exposed his identity. Knowing that you were pregnant, he left his post without permission regardless of the order given to him by Jingyuan. He also wanted to go back and ask your senior brother for marriage. You sneaked into the palace to stir up trouble. He had to reveal his identity as crown prince tengju before he welcomed you back from the palace. A Xin, you really don''t know what he thinks of you? "


    Hyacinth quietly shed two lines of tears, "I just don''t want to and can''t believe that there is a person in the world who is so kind to me without relatives."


    Zhuo Xi patted her on the shoulder, "ah Xin, it''s not too late to know now. Fortunately, he is still alive. "


    She raised her face and asked in panic, "Xi''er, you haven''t answered me that question. If he wakes up, will he hate me? Do you think I''m too cruel? "


    "Your words can just answer the question in your heart. Do you like him? Do you trust him? Or do you dare like him? Dare you trust him? "


    The hyacinth was still dull, "can I like him? Can I trust him? "


    "Now you are not married, and he is not married. Besides, he is also the father of your baby. You have been in perfect harmony, and you may always be in perfect harmony in the future. Do you think you can like him? Can you trust him? "


    The hyacinth''s mind was in chaos, "I don''t know."


    "Or if you think so, if you like him and trust him, then you are happy with each other. In the future, he will return to tengju to be his crown prince. As for you, you may successfully become his crown princess, and you may compete with other famous women in tengju. If you win, you may grow old together and have children around your knees. Today''s gratitude and resentment will disappear. If you lose, you will wander around the world with your child, go your own way and forget each other in the Jianghu. There are two possibilities. "


    Zhuo Xi paused, felt very thirsty, poured a glass of water, took a sip, and then said, "if you don''t like him and don''t trust him, you can travel around the world alone with your child. He may go to the ends of the earth to find you two. If he finds you and accepts him, he will still grow old together with his children around his knees. If he doesn''t accept him or he doesn''t find you two in his life, he will still go his own way and forget each other in the Jianghu. In short, there are only two endings, either together or not together. What kind of situation do you think you want to happen? "


    Feng Xinfu''s forehead, "maybe I should think about it."


    Zhuo Xi stood up. "In fact, the answer has already been given. If you don''t care, why ask me if he will hate you when he wakes up? Will your child hate you? The only way they don''t hate you is to like him and trust him. " She already knows the nature of hyacinth. Only those who like to accept it from the bottom of their heart can really trust him.


    The hyacinth turned to look at the living dead on the bed and was silent.


    Knowing that she needed time to choose and accept her decision, Zhuo Xi stretched out, "I''m starving. I''m going to have breakfast. Are you going with me? "

 Chapter 67

    The hyacinth touched the baby in her belly, "naturally, she wants to go and eat double. You wait for me to change. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "two people eat better than one."


    The next moment, she rushed over and grabbed the white Ling drawn from the wardrobe by the wind letter, "sister, do you want to strangle the baby?"


    The hyacinth was surprised, "I tie my chest, not my abdomen."


    "Don''t you know that the fetus needs oxygen very much? You bind your chest and reduce your oxygen intake. Not only will you lack oxygen, but also your baby will lack oxygen. Babies who lack oxygen in the first three months will become fools. "


    "But if you don''t tie your chest..." Fengxin looked at the men''s clothes he had just taken out.


    "Sister, don''t you live in women''s clothes these days? Go to my room. " It''s really blind that such a good figure should hide instead of wearing women''s clothes.


    Hyacinth hurriedly put on his coat, wrapped it at will, and followed Zhuo Xi to Furong house. Fortunately, Ziran has left in front. It is said that the guests came from the Hou family door.


    When she got to zhuoxi''s room, she found herself in trouble again, because she was a head shorter than the hyacinth, and there was almost nothing she could wear. As a last resort, she had to call Xianglan. Xianglan was a little taller than her, but not as tall as Fengxin. She had to take a set of clothes and skirts made in the new year to make peace with her first. In addition, she sent someone to go to Feiyu Zuoyu pavilion to take several sets of ready-made clothes according to the height of Fengxin, and specially ordered the color and style to attract bees and butterflies.


    Finally, Zhuo Xi looked at the despised hyacinth on her face, pulled out the corners of her mouth, and added her own jacket, which looked more pleasing to her eyes. She quickly promised that after the Shangyuan Festival, after the shop opened, she would choose some favorite styles by herself, which satisfied her.


    After tossing for a long time, Zhuo Xi finally sat down at the table with the hyacinth and prepared for breakfast. She also prepared a belly of words about the popularization of nutrition during pregnancy. Before she could say it, she saw Zi Ran pacing in with an embarrassed face.


    "See two masters." Zi Ran said.


    "What do you call us?" Zhuo Xi just took a mouthful of hot porridge and almost gushed it out. She suspected that she had heard wrong. Hyacinth is calm.


    Zi Ran repeated with a sad face, "two masters. The messenger of tengju state has been here for two hours. He has to see his Royal Highness the crown prince of their family. My subordinates are really powerless. " Now both the Lord and the prince are unconscious. What are the two on the table, not the master?


    "How many of them are here? Where is it now? "


    "Only three of them have entered the Hou''s house. Now they don''t leave the outer hall."


    "It''s just three people. Let them wait. I''ll have a good breakfast. Moreover, their mistress is still pregnant. "


    "But the messenger said that if he hadn''t seen the prince for half an hour, the prince''s instrument driver would start from the post station and come here to meet his highness. If the news of the prince staying in the Marquis house all night gets out, I''m afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the one in the palace. " If Yijia was placed in the Marquis house, Yan Rong had to go out if he couldn''t go out.


    Zhuo Xi thought and thought, "it''s really difficult to deal with. Let''s go out with you to meet the messenger."


    She looked at the hyacinth. Hyacinth was slowly drinking the bowl of eight treasure porridge, which seemed to suit her very much. Seeing this, Zhuo Xi had to sit down and continue to drink porridge. When the hyacinth finished the second bowl, he wiped the corners of his mouth, stood up and walked out.


    When he arrived at the outer hall, he saw three people sitting in the passenger seat. It was the middle-aged man named Shangguan sword who entered the palace with Yan Rong that day. In front of Ziran, he had been slightly angry with him for a long time. He thought that at least the Marquis invited out by Ziran for a long time this time. Unexpectedly, it was two women. He looked arrogantly and didn''t even get up. Hyacinth sat down on the throne impolitely, and Zhuo Xi had to stand aside. Shangguan sword was facing the two women. It was not easy to directly ask where the Marquis was. He had to say, "where is your Highness the prince?" But his eyes looked at the beam. He waited for a long time without an answer. He couldn''t help looking at them, but he saw that they were also looking at the beam of the room he had just looked at.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the beam and Shangguan sword and asked strangely, "Sir, is there anyone there? Why didn''t I see it? "


    Shangguan sword hasn''t reacted yet. "There''s no one on the beam."


    "Then why did you ask me there? Did you ask the beam? Did it answer you? " Zhuo Xi blinked and said playfully. Zi Ran burst out laughing.


    Shangguan Jian didn''t know Zhuo Xi''s identity and was furious. "I''m talking to your master. What are you talking about?"


    "Master? Who are you talking about? " Zhuo Xi asked with a smile.


    "Naturally, it''s the wind..." he had seen the wind. The woman who the Crown Prince wanted to break into the palace to welcome back that day was really beautiful. At first glance, it was a disaster to the country and the people, but even the crown prince recognized that she was the crown princess. It was not good to call her name directly, so he got stuck there and looked embarrassed.


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "what''s the wind?"


    Shangguan Jian thought of the young prince he would assist in the future. It''s still a long time. The person next to the pillow should not offend easily. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and his ugly face became more funny. He said with difficulty, "this princess. Princess, where is your highness He finally turned and said to the wind.


    The hyacinth glanced at him and replied, "naturally, it''s in our... Room." Zhuo Xi secretly praised her. She knew she was going to say "this childe". She remembered that it was not appropriate to call herself so in women''s clothes. She swallowed a word, but it turned into "this palace" in Shangguan sword. Right, this is the correct identity.


    Shangguan Jian looked ugly and asked, "Your Highness, even if you stay in the Marquis house, you should have a separate superior guest room. How can you stay in your boudoir?" Even if a married woman returns to her mother''s house with her husband, it is not suitable to live in the boudoir before marriage with her husband, not to mention the crown prince?


    The hyacinth said arrogantly, "he is my man, and naturally he is with me. Why not? "


    The Shangguan sword leaped to his feet, trembled his lips, and spit out a few words for a long time, "my subordinates want to see the prince."


    Hyacinth is a little embarrassed. If you want to see him, don''t you want to enter your own boudoir?


    Zhuo Xi simply said, "you can''t see him."


    Shangguan sword asked, "why?"


    "He''s hurt and needs rest."


    Shangguan sword was shocked. The two people behind him also stood up, "how did you get hurt? How''s the injury? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t think of an excuse for a moment. Fengxin was a little ashamed. He couldn''t tell him that he had broken his bones, could he?


    Seeing that they didn''t answer, knowing there must be something fishy, Shangguan Jian stepped forward and said, "princess, yesterday the prince suddenly sent all the dark guards back to the post station. His subordinates knew something must happen. My subordinates are not talented and have a little medical skills. Can I ask the prince to diagnose his pulse? See how the injury is? Or let me rest assured. "


    The hyacinth said slowly, "it''s not that we don''t let him out, it''s that he can''t walk."


    Shangguan Jian was more anxious when he heard the speech. "Where did you hurt? How''s it going? Princess, would you please show your subordinates a look at your highness? In the future, Shangguan sword will faithfully serve you and dare not be slighted any more. My subordinates have been looking for the prince for more than ten years. I can''t afford any mistakes. Please let me see you, princess. " He knelt down and knocked his head hard.


    Hyacinth was silent for a long time. Zhuo Xi was right. Now she has a big maternal hair. She really can''t see this feeling of protecting the calf. So she sighed, stood up and said, "come with me, just you."


    Zhuo Xi also sighed and followed her in. Zi Ran followed at the end. Shangguan Jian turned and ordered the two people behind him, and followed him. He bowed his hand to Zi Ran, "Zi Ran, my subordinates come to the Hou house to complain. They should pay a visit to the Hou ye in both emotion and reason. I don''t know if the Hou ye can be in the house?" He always wondered why he didn''t see the Marquis, but if a marquis didn''t meet him, he couldn''t help but pay a visit to his master.


    Zi Ran said with a wry smile, "Lord Shangguan, to tell you the truth. The Marquis is now unconscious and unable to see guests. That''s why I invited these two masters out to entertain you. "


    "Two masters?" Shangguan Jian looked at the two men walking in front in doubt. They were whispering something. It seemed that there was no difference between master and servant. "Thank you for reminding me." He secretly regretted his slight, and wondered whether the two were the masters of revenge.


    As they arrived at the Hefeng hall, although Shangguan Jian was quite novel about the design inside and outside the building, he didn''t dare to glance at it. He just followed their footsteps up the stairs. When he turned the corner, he suddenly heard the ding of the main pendant around his waist and fell to the ground floor from the gap at the corner. He bent over and looked, then turned and went downstairs to pick it up. Unexpectedly, when his feet slipped, the whole man wiped his ass against the stairs and slid all the way to the first floor. The thing he stepped on rolled down the stairs. When he got up and held his waist, he picked up the Pearl and his jade pendant and smiled bitterly. Sure enough, it was the Pearl hanging from the girl''s skirt just now. Just because he said a wrong word, he immediately caused disaster.


    Zi Ran Ran to help him, "Shangguan, are you okay?"


    "It''s all right, it''s all right," he said to himself, stroking his painful tailbone. "Let''s go up so that the two masters won''t wait long."


    Zi Ran didn''t know it was Zhuo Xi''s pen. He was just surprised how his attitude changed so quickly. He didn''t say anything and helped him up the second floor.


    When he entered the room and opened the bed curtain, he saw that his whole body was wrapped in wood. Naiyin was lying on the bed like a silent prince. He couldn''t help but cry and tremble his hands. He finally diagnosed his pulse for him. But he couldn''t help asking, "what''s the matter? How can it hurt like this? "


    Zhuo Xi just took a small revenge. She was very happy in her heart, so she suddenly appeared, "fell. He fell. "


    "Fell?" Shangguan Jian repeated in confusion. He thought of what he had just fallen, and suddenly became alert. It seemed to be a warning to him. He also remembered that Ziran had just told him that the Marquis was unconscious, and the crown prince used to be the dark guard of the marquis. He almost understood.


    Zhuo Xi nodded affirmatively, "yes, he fell."


    Shangguan Jian suddenly knelt down to the hyacinth, "empress, your Highness the prince really needs a long rest. It''s inconvenient for my subordinates to serve here. Please take more trouble with the crown princess. But I beg your mother to allow me to come and ask for a pulse every three days. It''s not to question my mother''s medical skills, but my subordinates are concerned about the crown prince. Only by learning about the crown prince in time can I be at ease. "


    Fengxin was wondering how the old and treacherous man could easily believe the terrible lie, but he didn''t know that Jingyuan had carried the black pot for her, so he nodded, "get up, I don''t have so many rules here. After that, every three days, you come to find your son. "


    Zi Ran was still immersed in his deep sympathy for the tragedy of his former companions and friends. Hearing the rumor, he raised his head, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and nodded. He was more determined not to offend the two women in front of him, and decided to spread this creed to all the Ming and dark guards in the house immediately after going out for a while.


    "Thank you." Shangguan Jian stood up, complained, stepped back and went out.


    Zi Ran also sent it out.

 Chapter 68

    Zhuo Xi walked around mu Naiyin on the bed, "tut Tut, ah Xin, you are really cruel. You say he''s awake now? Or awake? Or are you awake? "


    Hyacinth''s face changed. "Did you say he woke up?" She leaned over and looked at his closed eyes carefully. She was furious, "room capacity! Open your eyes! "


    Zhuo Xi Liangliang reminded, "he is Yan Rong now. We''ll all get used to the name in the future. "


    Yan Rong didn''t move.


    The wind letter said coldly, "I''ll count to three, pretend to sleep, and I''ll call Shangguan old man back and carry you back."


    The person on the bed immediately opened his eyes, probably trying to squeeze out some smile or cry, but his whole head was also covered with bandages, his mouth was slightly open, and he couldn''t say anything. There was pain all over him, he couldn''t move, he couldn''t speak. But he heard the conversation between the Shangguan and her, and also heard her recognition of her identity as a crown princess. He was very happy, plus some sweetness. He could not move his hands or speak. He could only stare at Meijiao Niang with black eyes.


    Zhuo Xi glanced casually and said, "his lips are dry and cracked, and he doesn''t feed a mouthful?"


    The hyacinth became angry. "Don''t you hurry back and see if your man is awake?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled and swaggered out of the door. It''s true that he asked for trouble and happily took revenge. He turned back to make such a big trouble and waited in the house. He hurt his muscles and bones for 100 days, not to mention such a tragic injury? After a year and a half, how can she stand being a hyacinth boy? She shook her head. Forget it. She turned back and asked mother Wu to find a close maid to serve them. How can she get a pregnant woman if she goes on like this?


    She just stepped out of the Hefeng hall and saw Zi Ran waiting outside. She picked up her eyebrows and said, "what else?"


    Zi Ran came forward with a smiling face and rubbed his hands and asked, "girl, can you let Zi Ran meet our Marquis?"


    She snorted coldly, "I''m afraid I''ll really harm your Marquis?"


    "No, no, no, no, you have a good hand and a kind heart. How can it be bad for the Marquis? Subordinates are also entrusted by the audience brothers. Learn about the situation of the Lord and explain to them. "


    "Well, if you are loyal, come with me."


    "Thank you, girl."


    Zhuo Xi took him back to furongju bedroom and looked at Jing Yuan who was in a coma and sleeping on the bed. Suddenly, she patted her head, "I forgot to ask ah Xin when he can wake up."


    Zi Ran looked carefully and saw that although he was in a coma, his face was as usual. He was relieved a little. Hearing the speech, he hurriedly said, "it doesn''t matter. My subordinates heard that it took at least eight or nine hours to detoxify the cold fragrance of this day, and some woke up in three or five days. I''ve suffered from the cold fragrance of this day since I was a child. I''m afraid it''s difficult to get rid of the poison. It''s normal to sleep more hours. My subordinates will go to the kitchen to cook a bowl of porridge and simmer it outside. If the master wakes up, please ask the girl to give him two bites. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and Zi Ran went out respectfully.


    She sat down by the bed and looked at his handsome face in a daze for a while. Suddenly, she reacted that the cold fragrance in this man has been for 20 years. Needless to say, Zi Ran knows the detoxification method of this poison like the back of his hand. He doesn''t know that swallowing this first medicine will spit blood at his mouth? Then what "dying" said he was cheating her! Remembering that he had cheated heaven and earth by pretending to be "dying", she hated her teeth and rubbed his unconscious face with her hand for a long time before she took revenge for herself.


    In the evening, she arranged everything and returned to the room. Seeing that he had no sign of awakening, she pried open his teeth, fed him some water, took a bath, went to bed and went to bed.


    I felt hard to breathe when I slept in the middle of the night, and when I began to be pressed by ghosts, I struggled to wake up. Unexpectedly, he woke up after a casual move this time. When I woke up, I found that it was not ghosts pressing the bed, but real people pressing the bed. She was startled, "Jing Yuan! What are you doing? "


    "Madam, I want to make up for our wedding night."


    "You..." Zhuo Xi was speechless and hammered him twice. "You''ve been in a coma all day and night. You just woke up. Aren''t you hungry?"


    "Hungry, very hungry, Ben Hou wants to eat you now."


    "No, I..."


    "Madam, don''t you count what you said before I died?"


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi felt his hot body covering her, and their clothes had long been stripped by him. A soft feeling swept through her intuition, as if every cell were boiling and shouting. She sighed. She teased him yesterday to make up for his disappointment. Now she will bear the consequences. Sure enough, I''ll pay it back sooner or later. Fortunately, this man is also recognized by himself. What does it matter earlier or later? Moreover, as a Marquis of Guang''an, it is a miracle that he can bear it for her. Which noble family in Kyoto did not raise a group of wives, concubines and female slaves early? It''s the name of Hou Ye''s wife. You must not agree. Who remembers that hasty and frightening worship?


    After that, Jing Yuan turned over and lay on his back on the bed with a long breath. He did not know where his ridiculous insistence came from. He was unwilling to find a woman to vent. When he met her, although he wanted her very much, he did not want to force her. He had no reputation, but at least she needed to be willing. Yesterday, she pretended to be dying to get her consent, and tricked her into hastily worshipping heaven and earth with him, so that she woke up in bed in the middle of the night, turned over and was about to hold her, but found that she was struggling to get up.


    "Where are you going?"


    "Go and wash it." Zhuo Xi was in the beginning of human affairs, and the pain under her body was abnormal. She rested for a long time before she came back. It was sticky and uncomfortable. Fortunately, the bathroom was in the room. She avoided the pain of sending water and being laughed at by them the next day.


    Jing Yuan immediately got up in high spirits, took her in her arms and went into the bathroom. It was another hour as soon as she got in, until her whole body was gently carried out and carefully put into the quilt. She was almost asleep, but she didn''t forget to point out with her finger and let herself fall asleep after saying "there is porridge there".


    Jing Yuan smiled silently. It seemed that she didn''t know she had deceived her. Fortunately. He put on his long clothes and went outside to hold porridge. Regardless of scalding his mouth, he drank it directly. After drinking four bowls in a row, he returned to the hot Kang with satisfaction.


    The next morning, he went downstairs to exercise his muscles and bones. Zi Ran was waiting downstairs.


    Zi Ran was overjoyed to see him come down, "Sir, you are awake! How do you feel? "


    Jing Yuan was in a very happy mood. The toxin of 20 years had finally been solved, and he held Meijiao Niang again. He had never been so refreshing and happy as he is today. He simply felt that he had lived in vain for the past 20 years, and even hugged vigorously. Suddenly, "it''s all right!" Everything is ready! Yesterday was a good day for him.


    Zi Ran jumped away with fright. "Yes, really?"


    "Nature is true." He said with a smile, "now, accompany me to practice sword for a while."


    "Yes." Zi Ran nodded his head and raised his face, but his face showed doubt.


    Jing Yuan couldn''t help feeling guilty when he stared at himself. I''ve never really been a thief before. I can face their inquiring eyes calmly. Now that the raw rice is ripe, he is a little guilty if he wants to look at the past calmly. But when they thought they were masters, they were afraid that it had happened early in the morning. What to be afraid of, they got stiff and stared back, "what are you looking at?"


    Zi Ran touched his nose, looked at him, lowered his eyes, and looked at him again. He couldn''t help calling out Jianyi in the dark, "Jianyi, come and see if my face is swollen?"


    "What?!" Jing Yuan touched his cheek and felt some pain. He remembered that he felt uncomfortable when drinking porridge last night. He suddenly understood, this little girl! He learned one of her old moves, shrugged and said, "maybe he slept for a long time and his face was swollen."


    Zi Ran was speechless. He saw you lying on your back on the bed. What did you take to press your face? Is it


    He and Yi looked at each other and thought of the picture at the same time. They couldn''t help looking at their master with envy and worship.


    Jing Yuan looked at their obscene eyes and kicked one foot, "don''t you go to practice sword with me?"


    Zi Ran muttered, "Sir, do you still have the strength to practice sword?"


    Zhuo Xi slept until the sun rose. She was very sore all over. Fortunately, it was the new year, and Jingyan didn''t wait outside early in the morning. She gritted her teeth, washed and dressed, wrote two prescriptions with a pen, called startled words, and carefully told her to go to two medicine shops to get medicine, and be careful not to be found by the Marquis''s people. Surprised Yan didn''t ask anything. Fu Shen went directly to the door.


    Xianglan came in happily and reported that 15 people from the feather door had sent a message that they had been successfully sold back to Renya bank by making a small mistake. When the Hou house came forward and bought back a batch the next day, they could train first. Zhuo Xi nodded and made a long list of things to ask her to help with. They were all things to use when she went to Liangzhou after Shangyuan Festival.

 Chapter 69

    Xianglan just went out, and then Zi Ran brought a group of people in and instructed them to move everything to the empty room on the west of the second floor. When zhuoxi made furniture, he classified the rooms on each floor slightly. However, when the Furong residence was built, there was no need to consider the area at all, so the area of each room was not small. Even if a simple functional classification was carried out, it basically did not affect the basic functions of the room. Each room has a bathroom, which can be regarded as a small suite. The room in the west just has the function of a study. A large row of bookcases against the wall are all made of good beech wood and equipped with doors.


    According to Jing Yuan''s instructions, Zi Ran went straight to the west room and opened the row of bookcases. He remembered what the master said to him in the morning, "I temporarily decided to repair the linyue attic and move my things to the west room on the second floor of Furong house first". He immediately understood that the master had already made a reconnaissance. At present, all the files and books moved in the study were put on the shelf one by one. They closed the outside door and admired themselves. Once the door was closed, the bookshelf was isolated from the dust. I don''t know how much cleaning effort it saved.


    He turned to the back of the bookshelf and looked at the narrow bed. He immediately decided that when mother Wu came, he would let her move all his personal bags to the east wing.


    So Zhuo Xi had a good rest in the room. She listened to the sound of chaos outside the door. She wanted to ask Xianglan or Jingyan to go out and have a look, and thought that they both went out to buy for her. He had to struggle. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Mother Wu raising her hand to knock.


    Mother Wu was stunned and saluted.


    Zhuo Xi invited her in. Mother Wu said, "girl, I asked you to bring some of his personal belongings."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, "why?"


    "My Lord said that the linyue Pavilion should also be renovated. Mr. Kou Andie has been asked to measure the design." Since Kou anding was called by the king to build a big Kang for the Empress Dowager in the palace, the people in the house called him sir.


    "There are still two rooms on the second floor. If not, the third floor is also empty." Zhuo Xi was depressed. She only used one of so many rooms. Why did she come to squeeze with her?


    "Girl, you see, the room in the south is used for receiving and talking, the room in the north is your pharmacy, and the room in the west is used as a study. The third floor is used to stack those antique calligraphy and paintings, gold and silver utensils. On the first floor, however, it''s easy for them to live, isn''t it? "


    "What?!" Zhuo Xi jumped up, "this building..." well, this building is not hers. In the final analysis, it is his. How he wants to use it is indeed his rights and freedom.


    However, "Xianglan and Jingyan still live on the first floor. Will this be immoral?" As soon as Zhuo Xi said this, she immediately wanted to bite off her tongue.


    "Never mind, the old slave has seen it. They live in the East. Zi Ran, they live in the west, separated by a large living room. Never mind. In this way, the old slave will be much easier in the future. I trust you with many personal things. " Without waiting for Zhuo Xi to say anything, she immediately said to the door, "hurry, put the things in and be quick." So several women brought in bags of baggage, put them on the table and went out.


    Zhuo Xi was weeping silently in her heart. She was a suitable servant, not a concubine. Although they may look like concubines in their eyes, don''t hurt people''s self-esteem, okay?


    Mother Wu opened one package after another and said, "madam. No, girl, these are my personal clothes. This bag is single clothes, this bag is imperial clothes, and here is casual clothes. They are all divided. Do you think the old slave put them all in the wardrobe or... "


    Zhuo Xi weakly pointed to the floor wardrobe inside, "the one on the right is still empty." She didn''t stay long enough to buy herself too many clothes. The huge wardrobe is still half empty. It''s cheaper for him.


    So mother Wu started the bedroom cleaning, not only tidying up his wardrobe, but also her wardrobe. A large box of his daily necessities occupied a large corner of the room. Mother Wu also asked someone to move a table and put it next to her dressing table, with several volumes of idle books, pen and ink, and go. Fortunately, the room is big enough. Mother Wu praised the function of the wardrobe to Zhuo Xi as she arranged and placed it. Zhuo Xi tilted on the bed and could only ha ha. The wardrobe left a high space for hanging clothes. In addition, she made more drawers in it.


    Mother Wu tidied up the outside room and took my daily washing tools to the bathroom. She exclaimed, "no wonder you don''t want to go back to linyue pavilion every night. I dare say that this washing room is so convenient. " She studied the water outlet code of the faucet - previously, in order to facilitate Jing Yuan''s use, Zhuo Xi pasted the water outlet code and the use method of the faucet on the wall, turned on the faucet and began to clean the sheets left in the sink. When she saw the irregular blood on the sheet, she was stunned first, and then secretly laughed. So this is the real reason why I want to move today?


    Zhuo Xi listened to the sound of the water for a long time before she remembered that she was afraid that Xianglan surprised him to find that she was thrown into the pool to prepare her own bed sheets. With a cry, she rushed to the door of the bathroom and watched mother Wu skillfully Amoy the bed sheets. With a cry, she had no face to see anyone.


    Mother Wu smiled, "don''t be ashamed, girl. The old slave is really happy. I have wronged myself for so many years. You are the first woman around him. If you can have children as soon as possible, the old slave will have a good explanation to Princess Xianru in the future. I heard that my marriage with the Wang family has been cancelled. Maybe one day, my will to marry you will come. At that time, you will be the serious madam of Hou''s house. There''s no need to embarrass such a small thing as this morning. "


    Zhuo Xi covered her face and wanted to say, which is going to marry him? Love between men and women is a matter of course. Why should it be tied to marriage?


    Seeing that she was silent, mother Wu looked out at her. When she was just shy, she continued to immerse herself in her joy, "girl, you should pay attention in the future. Don''t wash your hands on this cold day. Xianglan and Jingyan are so careless. No, I''m going to tell Mrs. Wang later and ask her to cook you some soup porridge to replenish qi and blood... "


    Zhuo Xi dug her ears and wailed again, treating her as a pregnant woman? No, no, hurry to find a word, "Mom Wu, what do you say is his favorite food every day? Do something? "


    "Mrs. Wang mentioned to me that he didn''t like to eat anything before, but since you studied many new foods for him, his appetite has increased a lot. Every day is either dealing with official business or practicing boxing. There are few other activities. Alas, his temperament has been silent since he left the palace. Maybe it''s all because of the death of Princess Xianru. "


    Zhuo Xi leaned on the warm Kang and almost fell asleep. Suddenly a voice inspired her, "are you ready to serve Ben Hou so much?"


    Mother Wu just washed the sheet and put it out in a basin. When she heard the voice, she smiled, "I''m back. The old slave will go out now. In the future, your personal affairs will be entrusted to the girl. "


    "Madam." He corrected.


    "Alas? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, madam. The old slave made a mistake. Sir, madam, the old slave has retired. " Mother Wu went out with a smile.


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead and tilted back to the big Kang. She closed her eyes and said nothing.


    "Madam..." Jing Yuan came near.


    "What are you calling?" Zhuo Xi pushed him away impatiently without opening her eyes. This remark was extremely rude, but for Zhuo Xi, the person in front of her is her close and close person, who can sometimes be wild and have a small temper. So this moment was an occasional moment in her eyes. Their private space has been seriously violated. Don''t say, one nagging comes after another. One by one, can you say hello first? Doesn''t he know that she hates things that aren''t arranged?


    Jing Yuan didn''t care, "madam, please look." He unfolded a thing in front of her.


    Zhuo Xi still closed her eyes and didn''t see him.


    Or not? He stifled and quietly put away the thing. After thinking for a while, he lay quietly beside her and carefully stretched out an arm to hold her. Then he came closer to her and tightened his arms.


    After a while of silence, Jing Yuan heard her breathing steady and fell asleep.


    He stood up and stared at her for a long time, clenched the thing in his hand, got up and went out.


    A few days passed in a flash. Zhuo Xi silently resisted Jing Yuan''s occupation of Furong house from her heart, slowly became helpless, and finally could only accept it. No way, who told her not to have her own house? Who calls her a subordinate of the Marquis? So she took part of the silver money from the three boxes and asked Xianglan to buy a house in an obscure place in Kyoto. She secretly found Kou Niang and asked her to watch the renovation. The important thing is to let Kou Anli build several toilets with his favorite student Yuan Yi.


    The first batch of feather gate sisters bought back by Xianglan in the name of Hou''s house also arrived, as many as 16. There are others that haven''t had time. We can only wait for the next batch. Zhuo Xi and Xianglan took them for training for three days, and then took them to Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan for on-the-spot study and exchange, so they arranged for their internship.


    During this period, she also took the time to see the wind in Hefeng hall. As expected, mother Wu quickly found two capable girls to serve them. Hyacinth seems to be in a good mood, and mu Naiyin in bed seems to be in a good mood. I don''t know who sent the news. It said that Prince Rong came to provoke Guang''an Hou a few days ago and was badly hurt, vomiting blood and coma. Guang''an Hou was so guilty that he had to set up a building for Prince Rong and asked the best doctor to treat his injury. When the news was released, the palace specially sent a imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment to show the king''s grace. Sure enough, when the imperial doctor returned, he brought back the news that the prince Rong might not be able to speak for a month. Suddenly, there were many fewer secret outposts around the Marquis of Guang''an.


    Jing Yuan spent most of her time in the study and no longer required her to be on duty as before. Because she once heard him say that she had resigned, but she suspected that she had heard wrong. So she felt uneasy at the end of her laziness, and occasionally sent a cup of soup stewed by mother Wang to her as well as hyacinth. She said that the Marquis had worked hard and drank the soup to refresh herself. What are jujube pigeon soup, angelica black chicken soup, ginseng beef bone soup, etc. At first, Zhuo Xi chuckled and was proud for a long time. Until once he drank blood from his nose, but he played extraordinary at night. He turned her over and tortured her eight times. Then she suddenly realized what kind of big mistake she had made - it turned out that he had asked for all the soreness and weakness these days?


    It''s just that it''s difficult for Jingyan to stew the medicine. He secretly stews it on the third floor and wants to bring it to Zhuo Xi when the Marquis is away. Once, when the Marquis found out, he casually asked, "what medicine are you drinking?" Zhuo Xi also answered casually, "some catch cold. Take two drinks to drive away the cold." The Marquis didn''t care, but he scared the surprised speech.

 Chapter 70

    After all this, Shangyuan festival will come. Jing Yuan has been going out early and returning late for several consecutive days, and there is no shadow during the day. So Zhuo Xi had breakfast and went to see hyacinth.


    Hyacinth is drawing in the living room. The lotus wind house as like the lotus residence is as like as two peas. At the beginning, it saved time for the batch fabrication of accessories, and she made the copy of Furong residence directly. Hyacinth, she doesn''t like the study in the West. The big bookcase has been used by her as an alchemy room, and her bottles and cans are placed in one grid at a time. She prefers to move her big desk to the window of the living room, facing several Chimonanthus plants outside the window, saying that it is indispensable for sunshine and flower fragrance. The north room is dedicated to her bathing and dressing. The south room is the bedroom. Zhuo Xi was greatly moved after seeing her arrangement on the second floor that day. The bedroom in the South had excellent daylighting. She usually got up late in the morning because of perennial insomnia. She hated the fact that the bedroom was covered with sunshine early in the morning. But Fengxin is quite normal. From the flowers in her room, she knows that she has an extraordinary demand for sunshine and nature, and she doesn''t know where there are so many Chimonanthus in this winter. In the east room, there was an ancient zither. Although she had never heard the wind letter play once, once she nagged Jingyan. When she could hear the wind letter play the piano, she was shocked. That kind of fear and surprise was no less than when she heard that Fengxin was the wind letter childe. So she decided not to try to let Feng Xin play the piano. It must be a very terrible thing.


    At this time, the hyacinth is depicting the red Chimonanthus against the windowsill. A few pictures were pasted on the window beside the windowsill, which were the simple expressions of all kinds of smiling faces painted by Zhuo Xi for her a few days ago. There were crazy laughter, chuckling, picking flowers and laughing, and obscene sneaking laughter. There were more than 30 kinds of smiles.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her painting quietly, which was really pleasing to the eyes. Now she is wearing women''s clothes, her long skirt is dragging the ground, her eyebrows are black, and her hands holding a brush are thin and soft; If you change the previous men''s clothes, the focus between your eyes and eyebrows is definitely a beautiful childe of the turbid world. If you don''t think about Yan Rong lying in the bedroom, and don''t think that his hands have broken the whole bones of the unlucky man inch by inch, Zhuo Xi feels that this beautiful woman will attract the world.


    "Why don''t you come in yet? The cold wind outside is very comfortable? " She made a noise.


    Zhuo Xi lifted up her skirt and walked into the living room. "The doors and windows are wide open, and the draught takes away the heating. What''s the difference between going in and not going in? "


    "Of course, there are differences. Passers-by is outside the door, and guests are in the door. If you want to be a guest, how can you not come in? "


    "We''ve slept in the same bed. I''m still a guest in your eyes?"


    "Why, do you want to be the master?"


    "Can''t you?"


    "No!" Fengxin refused very simply, "the last person who wanted to be the master here is lying in his bedroom. Do you want to try it? "


    Zhuo Xi immediately replied, "no, No. I''d better be a guest. "


    "Well, the 37 smiling faces you painted are very good. I often read them and feel in a good mood. I wonder if there is a crying face? "


    "What are you doing with a baby and a crying face?"


    "All kinds of life, crying and laughing are very common. Looking at other people''s crying faces, my mood will be better. "


    Zhuo Xi is full of black lines. What kind of abnormal psychology is this¡° A Xin, are you happy to see Yan Yi like this? "


    "I guess so. It''s always a pleasure to see others unlucky. " She picked up the painting and squinted at it.


    "..." Zhuo Xi said quietly, you didn''t put the mold on his head¡° If I tell you that a group of people will be unlucky tonight, do you want to see it with your own eyes? "


    "Today is Shangyuan Festival. There is a lantern party in the evening. Do you want to go out?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "Jing Yuan is not in the house. I want to take Xiao Meng out to enjoy the lights, but I heard that the people at the prison gate prepared a big meal for us tonight. Although I don''t know whether their goal is me or Jingyuan, I know they must be unlucky. So I want to ask you by the way, do you want to go to the theatre together? "


    "Are you sure you''re not using me?"


    "Aunt, I''m sure I can''t use you. But if you want to help, I won''t refuse. "


    "Ha ha ha," Feng Xin laughed boldly, "I like your temper!"


    "Don''t, the person you like is lying in bed and can''t move. I don''t want to be like that. But I want to ask you to borrow a man''s suit... "


    "You want to dress up as a man? No, with me, what else to be afraid of? "


    "Not afraid. It is said that there will be many young women at the Lantern Festival looking for their favorite handsome young people at night. Let''s go and have a comparison. Who can get the most flowers tonight? "


    "This is interesting. Yes. " Fengxin threw down her pen and took her to the dressing room. After studying for a long time, they finally changed their men''s clothes.


    Xianglan and Jingyan saw two beautiful teenagers coming from afar, and their eyes were staring out. When they looked more carefully, they were both surprised and inexplicable.


    Zhuo Xi shook the paper fan, "two ladies, Xiaosheng, you are polite."


    Xianglan smiled, "what are you going to do?"


    "We''re going to go shopping. You and Jingyan should prepare."


    Xianglan quickly called the woman in front of the house and asked her to go ahead and ask housekeeper Zhou to prepare the carriage. He and Jingyan quickly changed into clothes and came out. Meng came with Xiaobai in his arms. He was very happy to hear that he was going shopping.


    Meng got up and ate some snacks from the carriage. Zhuo Xi asked about Xiaobai recently. When she went to Meng, she began to chatter. Zhuo Xi touched his head and felt sad. He should have been a good age to study, but he was trapped here and didn''t even have a chance to go out and play. Thinking of this, she opened the small bamboo curtain on the horse window and asked, "Xiao Meng, come and see, can you recognize the words on the door?"


    Xiao Meng began to get excited, "there''s a word in the middle. I know the word on the flag. It''s wine. Ah, there''s a word "medicine". My father taught me. Isn''t that right, sister? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "how old is Xiao Meng this year?"


    "Nine years old. My father said, "I was born on the sixteenth day of the first month. After sixteen, I will be ten."


    "Oh, little Meng''s birthday tomorrow? As it happens, if you like anything when we come out today, tell your sister that she bought you the right as a birthday gift? "


    Xiao Meng''s eyes shone, "really? Thank you, sister. "


    "Xiao Meng, you will be a man after you are ten years old. You little man, do you want to go to school to learn more skills? "


    "Sister, can I go? Can I really go? " Xiao Meng''s eyes became brighter, but the next moment he bowed his head, "but I heard that it''s not easy for a craftsman''s child to enter school."


    Heard? Who did the child listen to? The child is expected to be smarter than he thought.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "don''t worry. I heard that Kou Niang''s son is just ten years old this year and has just gone to school. My sister will ask her to come and see if she can let you go with him."


    After hearing this, Xiao Meng put down Xiao Bai, knelt on the ground solemnly in the narrow carriage and kowtowed three times to Zhuo Xi, "thank you, sister." He also knew that this would be an important turning point in his life.


    Zhuo Xi picked him up, "Xiao Meng, don''t be busy thanking me. You have to choose your own way in the future. What you can do in the end depends on yourself. "


    Meng nodded seriously, "I know, I will work hard. Sister, Xiao Meng, don''t buy anything. This is the best birthday gift I received this year. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at him happily, "this is mine. What about sister hyacinth and sister Xianglan? You guys, Xiao Meng''s sister has been yelling for so long, but it''s not for nothing. You have to show it? " The latter half of her sentence was directed at the hyacinth. Xianglan somehow wet her eyes and nodded vaguely with tears.


    The silent hyacinth cleared his throat and said in a low voice as usual, "pay attention. From now on, you need to pay attention to calling our two CHILDES."


    Xianglan immediately broke his tears into laughter and answered "promise" with surprised little Meng


    It was only half an afternoon when they came out. They wandered around and around on Dongsan road. They never let go of all kinds of snacks and snacks. Everyone was so full that they couldn''t walk at dinner time. They simply saved dinner. I also bought a lot of things. The light market didn''t open until evening, so several people sat by the Linqu River waiting for the sun to set.


    These people have never lived in Kyoto except Fengxin. So the hyacinth became the local snake among them, and rarely opened his mouth to introduce them to the passing scenery. Any city will have a river passing through it, which is a portrayal of human living without water. After listening to the wind, Zhuo Xi knew that the linqujiang river not only passed through the city, but also across the palace. This is very dangerous. If you drop medicine at any upstream, people in the palace are very vulnerable to poison.


    "Don''t think about it. The river entering the palace will be guarded every day. You can try it out if it is poisonous or not. Besides, the water they really drink is well water. How can you just enter? " The hyacinth saw through Zhuo Xi''s idea at a glance. Zhuo Xi touched her nose. She had no idea about the court, but thought of the available ways conditionally.


    The sunset gradually sank, and the night wind began to blow. There are more and more people on the shore. They are holding all kinds of lamps and lanterns in their hands, ready to put them on for blessing. A painted boat also appeared on the river, and the sound of silk and bamboo came faintly.


    Zhuo Xi looked back to the road, and the light Market in the middle of the open space, which had been prepared by the vendors all day, began to light up bit by bit. Go to Meng has stood up, "sister, let''s guess the lantern riddle!"


    Zhuo Xi was about to stand up. The hyacinth held her hand and said to Xianglan with a smile, "Xianglan, you take Xiao Meng to guess the lantern riddles first. You''d better guess some big ones and put them directly into the carriage."


    Zhuo Xi took a look at her, immediately understood, and said to Xianglan, "sister, Jingyan will go with you. After you have guessed the riddle, go back to the horse cart and wait for us. " Jing Yan''s martial arts are good. It shouldn''t be a problem to protect them.


    Xianglan hesitated for a moment. She was sensitive to the danger. "Sister, I think we''d better be together."


    Hyacinth also picked up his eyebrows, "there''s a childe here. Go and play with the you."


    "The surprised words stay. I''ll take Xiao Meng to play." Xianglan gave way.


    Zhuo Xi stood up and scraped Meng''s nose. "You''re a birthday star in advance today. Take two maids to win dozens of lanterns and come back to see them and see your prestige. You won''t lose, will you? "


    Meng waved his fist, "I won''t."


    "Hey, hey, don''t talk big. Be careful when you lose, you''ll have to pawn a jade card." She said and looked at Xianglan. Sure enough, Xianglan looked dignified when she heard the jade card. She nodded to her slightly.


    Xianglan quickly and excitedly saluted the two of them, "be careful, young masters. Maidservants will take the young master there to play."

 Chapter 72

    Wu Xing nodded and came up to pick up the cup. "Six younger sisters, you''re awake. How did you feel? Would you like some more water? "


    Zhuo Xi shook her head, "nothing. It''s just that my head is a little heavy. How long have I slept? "


    "Three days -" he looked up at the sky, "about another six hours."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "why did I sleep so long? What happened? "


    Wu Xing still looked gloomy. He reached into his sleeve and took out a letter and handed it to her.


    She took it over and looked. On the envelope was Jing Yuan''s handwriting "Zhuo Xi''s kiss."


    "My wife, Xi''er, sees words like a meeting. You were confused by ah Xin''s piano music cup that day, or you were in a coma for several days. If you woke up, it would be all right. However, he Fu had a military order and had no time to say goodbye. You wait in your boudoir, and my husband will look forward to his return. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. "Is this?"


    "The boudoir of Miss Wu jialiu."


    It was at Wu''s house¡° Well, brother, why didn''t you follow the Marquis... "


    He smiled bitterly, "on the day of Shangyuan Festival, the Marquis and the three princes were attacked on the Qujiang River. I served the eleven battalions in vain. I failed to protect the marquis. I have been removed from office and treated as a sin at home."


    "..." Zhuo Xi glanced at Wu Xing. "Don''t hide it from me, brother. When will it be your turn to take charge of the Qujiang River case? The 11th battalion of Baihui army stationed outside the city? Do you have other tasks to stay? " After staying for a long time, she knew that although Fengchang was a military post, it was more like a staff officer. Therefore, he is usually responsible for logistics and material transportation. His martial arts are not very outstanding, but he is better than ordinary soldiers.


    Wu Xing was about to speak when he suddenly put his finger to his lips and "hissed". Surprised Yan came in with a bowl of medicine soup. Seeing Zhuo Xi awake, he was surprised and said, "Miss, are you awake? Great. I''ll go to the kitchen and bring a bowl of porridge. You haven''t eaten in three days. "


    Zhuo Xi picked up her eyebrows and looked at Wu Xing staring at the eyes of startled speech, "what are you doubting?"


    Wu Xing looked back and said with a smile, "nothing. Seeing that your close maid''s martial arts are not weak, I want to compete with her when."


    "Don''t think about it. Your internal power is less than 30% of her. She can get you down with any finger. "


    Wu Xing looked embarrassed and told, "when the porridge comes, drink less and eat it later when you''re hungry. The old lady has sent someone to see her more than ten times. I''ll go back to her now to reassure her. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded. The old lady of the Wu family really took her as a granddaughter, cared about her everywhere, and often sent some delicious food on New Year''s day. She suddenly raised a trace of shame and stopped Wu Xing, "brother, thank grandma for me. When I can get up tomorrow, I''ll go and say hello to her old man. "


    Wu Xing nodded, stepped out, came back and said, "six younger sisters, that, three younger sisters and five younger sisters, if they come to see you and have something wrong with words, please bear more."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised and nodded with a light smile. It seems that many stories happened during his coma.


    Wu Xing went out and surprised Yan came in.


    She took a bowl of porridge, sat down in front of Zhuo Xi, blew in the bowl, scooped a mouthful of porridge and fed it to Zhuo Xi''s mouth. Zhuo Xi took the whole bowl, "I''ll do it myself."


    Surprised Yan nodded and sat aside watching her eat.


    Zhuo Xi asked while eating, "what happened that night? How did I get here? "


    He said in surprise, "that night, we accompanied Xiao Meng to guess a few word puzzles. Unexpectedly, we also won a few lanterns and returned to the carriage. Suddenly, I saw many people start running. While running, someone shouted, killing and killing. Sister Xianglan was worried about you, so she said she would take Xiao Meng back to the Marquis first and let the maidservant come to protect you. But when we got to the shore, we couldn''t find you and miss hyacinth, so the maid had to wait on the shore. After waiting for nearly half an hour, the boat came ashore. The Marquis rushed out with you in his blood. Only then did the maid know that you were also on the boat. "


    "Jing Yuan''s blood? Is he hurt? " Zhuo Xi shook her hand holding the spoon.


    "I don''t know. The Marquis is covered with blood. I don''t know whether it''s his own or someone else''s. The ship is full of dead people, the guards are stained with blood, and your chest is also full of blood. "


    "I''m hurt, too?" Zhuo Xi looked down and didn''t seem to find any bandages.


    "There was blood in your quarrel at that time. You should have suffered some internal injuries and sprayed a mouthful of blood before you dyed your chest red."


    "What did you hear on the shore?"


    "The boat was at least forty or fifty feet away from the shore, and the maid couldn''t hear it clearly. But judging from the death of those gangsters on board, the maidservant knew that it must have been the hyacinth childe. " Speaking of the wind, he shrank.


    "You seem to be afraid of hyacinth. Why?"


    "Few people in the Jianghu are not afraid of hyacinth. The maidservant wondered how you could get so close to her. "


    "Oh? You said she did it. What happens when she does it? "


    "Young master hyacinth has two unique skills, one is to use poison, the other is to use piano. There are almost no poisons she can''t solve, but her poisons are often unsolvable. Her Tianyin zither is invincible in the world. Once this zither is played, the more people with profound internal power suffer the more powerful counterattack. It is said that her Tianyin zither has been refined to nine levels, almost reaching the point of controlling the strings at will and killing people invisibly. " Jing Yan gave a brief introduction.


    "That means that if a person has no internal power, Tianyin Qin has nothing to do with him?"


    "No, she has reached the ninth weight. Above the eighth weight, people who have no internal power may not be able to withstand the sound of Tianyin Qin, and all five internal organs will be damaged. Five years ago, it was said that there was a young sect leader named Haitian sect. He boasted of unparalleled talent, but he liked men. After meeting the childe, he kept pestering and even used Mei medicine. In a rage, the childe bloody washed the Haitian gate, relying on the Tianyin piano. It is said that even the servants and factotresses in the place where the general altar is located have no martial arts skills. All of them died of broken internal organs. Since then, no one in the world dares to covet your beauty. "


    "Has she ever used poison to kill?"


    "You don''t know the battle of wansha city?" said the surprised man


    Zhuo Xi nodded and shook her head, "I only heard that they were trapped in wansha city that day, but I don''t know the details."


    "It is not clear how they were trapped in wansha city. However, I heard that after the Duke broke through the wansha City, 100000 bureaucrats in the city didn''t return all their lives. They died miserably, but they looked happy and seemed to die happily. The world says that the childe used poison to win the battle of wansha city. "


    Zhuo Xi helped the forehead. It''s all heard. It''s equal to not saying. Forget it, ask about the recent situation¡° Did you go back to the Marquis house when you saw me being carried out that night? "


    "No, the Marquis immediately ordered me to find a carriage. I hired a carriage and saw young master Wu. I followed you to Wu''s house. Young master Wu was very nervous. He invited different doctors to treat you for three days. They all thought you were just asleep and woke up in a few days. "


    "Hou ye set out for Liangzhou the next day?"


    "The maidservant heard that it was. At noon the next day, the Marquis''s team left Kyoto."


    "Ah Xin? Has she been here? "


    Startled, he shook his head. "No, childe, it''s true. You''re unconscious. His medical skills are so excellent that he didn''t come to have a look. But Miss Wu and Miss Wu have been here several times. But... "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "but what?"


    "They come and go, but the boss looks reluctant. Yesterday also said, also said...... "


    "What did you say?"


    Startled, he hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "the third lady said yesterday that the Marquis should serve, not even a concubine. When the Marquis left Beijing, he was sent back to disgrace the Wu family. "


    It turned out that Wu Xing was worried about this just now.


    Zhuo Xi said with a light smile, "now I depend on others, but I wronged you to be looked down upon by others."


    "Don''t dare," startled Yan quickly waved his hand and said, "it''s the duty of slaves to serve the young lady. Where will you be wronged?"


    "By the way, has Xianglan gone?"


    "Gone, she went to Dingzhou the next day to deal with the sub shop according to the arrangement of the young lady. The sixteen sisters also went happily. " Said with a yearning face.


    Zhuo Xi pinched her little face. "Do you want to go too?"


    Startled, he rubbed his face. "I''ve just had a good life. I want to learn more years around miss."


    "That''s right. I can learn more here. You will go out and be alone in the future. " Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "now, help me walk in the yard. I''ve been lying for days and my bones are hard. "


    Jingyan Yiyan puts on her clothes and helps her up. They made two rounds inside and outside the house. They both missed the lotus house very much. It''s extremely inconvenient to get water, wash your face and shower every day and go to the bathroom. But Zhuo Xi didn''t have the idea of transforming here at all, because she thought she might not live here long at all. Fortunately, although this matter is troublesome, there are several women and maids who sweep every day. Just call twice more.


    Zhuo Xi took two more steps with Jing Yan. When she was panting, she heard a complaint from the path outside the door, "why is it so remote here? My feet are sore."


    "Third sister, wait a minute. We''ll be there soon."


    "Mother didn''t want to come, so she sent us to see the six younger sisters day by day. She lay there like a dead man all day. What can she see? "


    "Take it easy, third sister. I heard that the eldest brother said that the sixth sister would wake up these two days. Six younger sisters are seriously ill in bed. It''s right to have a look at her with our sisters. "


    "Hum, don''t draw Bodhisattva''s face. If it were not for the sake of her being a seven grade waiter, my mother would Baba send us to see her? "


    Say two people already walked to the front of the door, followed by two maids behind.


    They were all shocked when they saw Zhuo Xi standing in the yard. Wu Jiao, the fifth sister, responded quickly, came over and held Zhuo Xi''s hand and said, "it''s great that you can wake up, sixth sister. My mother always remembers you. She sends me two to visit her every day. "


    Third sister Wu Ru said awkwardly, "sixth sister, you''re awake." She didn''t know what she had just said was heard by Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi took out her hand. "Thank you, third sister and fifth sister. You have a heart."


    "Six younger sisters, it''s windy outside. You''d better go back to the house and lie down." Wu Jiao said.


    Zhuo Xi nodded and couldn''t let them stand outside.

 Chapter 71

    The boat approached slowly, and the sound of silk and bamboo was getting closer and closer. The hyacinth listened for a while and said, "Jing Yuan and Jing Hua are on it, and there are some other smelly men."


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. Now they are both dressed in men''s clothes. Are they all among the smelly men she said?


    Taking advantage of the time to understand the opponent''s background, she whispered, "what sect is the prison gate?"


    The hyacinth glanced at her, "the first killer organization in Northwest China. However, he has always been active in the northwest and rarely set foot in the Central Plains. "


    "When things go wrong, there must be demons. They''re good at poison? With a sword? Or concealed weapons? "


    The hyacinth nodded approvingly, and sure enough, he was able to grasp the key point. "They have a concealed weapon named Yanluo needle, which is a kind of thin needle as light as Yanluo. It can shoot 81 needles at a time, each of which is highly toxic. So basically, few of the targets they aim at can escape. "


    "So it''s called the first killer organization in Northwest China." Zhuo Xi held her chin and thought, "but their first deal in Kyoto obviously failed."


    "So there must be a second attack to let people know who their target is."


    "You mean this second attack was just a cover up? Just to reassure people who were attacked for the first time? In fact, their real target is the man who attacked for the first time? "


    "However, they won''t do it easily. Use only when you encounter an inaccessible target. So for targets like you, they must not use smoke needles. It follows that their goal is definitely not you. "


    Zhuo Xi shrugged. "Ordinary people don''t want to kill people like me."


    Hyacinth was about to laugh when his face suddenly became dignified. "Shh, here comes the big meal."


    Zhuo Xi also listened carefully. Sure enough, there seemed to be a sudden quarrel on the boat.


    "What happened?"


    "The old-fashioned drama of the land of fireworks."


    "Who? Who robbed with whom? " Zhuo Xi sounded energetic.


    "The man who was robbed was thrown out." The wind signal beckoned to the boat. Sure enough, there was a plop, as if someone fell into the water.


    The people on the shore also found abnormalities. Someone began to shout, "someone fell into the water. Save people." But the next second, he covered his mouth, because he saw many people in black jumping out of the water like fish and shooting at the boat like arrows.


    Zhuo Xi also saw the shadow reflected by the light and shadow on the water surface. He opened his mouth and asked the wind, "isn''t the northwest a desert place? Why are they so good at water? " It must have been hidden in the water for a long time.


    "Didn''t you see the reed stem spitting out of their mouth?"


    "Er..." Zhuo Xi had night blindness. It would be nice to see several figures. How can she see so clearly? Suddenly she was angry, "so you knew there were killers in the water?"


    The hyacinth nodded. "It''s natural. There are so many people under the water. They also have to breathe."


    "Take me up." Zhuo Xi grabbed her hand.


    The hyacinth frowned and said, "what are you doing up there?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned for a moment, and immediately said solemnly, "I''m going to go up and see if my old man robbed people on the boat!"


    The hyacinth laughed at the speech, "good reason! I''ll take you up. "


    She got up, picked up Zhuo Xi and flew over one by one. Zhuo Xi only felt her body light, and felt that the hyacinth seemed to step on something in the water. She flew up again, opened her eyes again, and went to the boat.


    There was a fierce battle on the boat. A group of people in black were fighting, and they didn''t know how to distinguish their companions. Zhuo Xi looked at it for a while and smiled, "this phosphor is well used." The faint lantern showed several pairs of ghost eyes blinking. As soon as she made a sound, a figure flew over and grabbed her waist. Her tone was a little angry. "What are you doing here?"


    "Let''s eat the wind first. I''m so hungry. Why don''t you take us to find something to eat? You know, I eat alone and two people are full. "


    Jing Yuan reluctantly took Zhuo Xi, took them carefully around the people who were fighting, and walked into the boat. There were also several people fighting inside, but Jing Hua sat and was eating, completely ignoring the strong smell of blood. A Kabuki beside him was limping and trembling on the ground.


    As soon as Jing Hua saw them come in, she smiled and pointed to the seat in front, "come on, please sit down and have a glass of thin wine."


    "Where''s the prince?" Jing Yuan asked.


    "He was scared away." Jing Hua said with a smile.


    Zhuo Xi sat down and looked at the table. "Do you have clean chopsticks?"


    "Use mine." Jing Yuan took his.


    Hyacinth had no idea where to turn out several clean cups. Unfortunately, there was only one pair of chopsticks, so Zhuo Xi had to use Jingyuan''s.


    Several people touched a cup and didn''t hear the clang fighting outside the window.


    Jing Hua said with a smile, "six aunts, long time no see."


    Zhuo Xi was flattered, "don''t shout the wrong person."


    "There''s another aunt here?" He looked left and right.


    Zhuo Xi had no such experience at all, so she had no choice but to say, "Your Highness the third prince, just call me Zhuo Xi."


    Jing Yuan found that she showed a little shyness in such a slightly embarrassing situation, which made him very happy. He sat closer to her, "madam, you can call him Hua''er."


    The hyacinth had rubbed his arms away from them. "What do you two big men want to do in broad daylight?"


    Zhuo Xi grabbed a handful of broad beans and threw them on her. "Which eye of yours saw broad daylight?"


    As soon as Jing Hua saw it, she flattered her, "my aunt is really handsome in men''s clothes."


    Hyacinth is used to pouring cold water. "Unfortunately, my men''s clothes are obviously long shirts. They look like skirts on you."


    Zhuo Xi angrily said, "isn''t it just a little longer?"


    At this time, Zi Ran stumbled in, "Sir, there are more and more people at the prison gate. According to my subordinates, I''d better withdraw first."


    Jing Yuan took a look at the wind and said with a smile, "let them all come in and guard the two doors and windows. Tell them to remove their internal power as soon as they hear a sound. "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t understand, but she sighed when she saw the hyacinth. "There are wine and vegetables, but there is no piano sound. Life is a big shock."


    Having said that, she had gone to the middle of the cabin and sat down. In front of her was a piano, which was obviously used by geisha at their banquet just now.


    Zhuo Xi thought of the terrible look of surprised words, covered her ears and looked at the two people in front of her.


    Jing Yuan pulled down her hand, "don''t be afraid, ah Xin''s piano sound is very beautiful. It''s just that the piano is a little worse. "


    The fighting sound was getting closer and closer. Several people in black had jumped into the cabin and guarded the doors and windows.


    Hyacinth Su stroked with her hand and tried a few notes, then a sonorous piano sound gushed out.


    Zhuo Xi saw a dark figure spray a mouthful of blood on the window, and immediately someone in the cabin stretched out a knife to pierce a hole in the people outside. Gradually, the people in the cabin killed out in turn. It seems that they have turned defeat into victory. Zhuo Xi suddenly found that she didn''t seem to be blind at night. She saw the killing outside through the doors and windows. It was so clear that she could see the light purple flower sign on a black cylinder that the man reached out from his waist.


    The hyacinth was originally a phoenix with its eyes slightly closed. At this time, its eyes suddenly opened and shouted, "smoke Luo needle!" Under the finger is to force, the clang of the piano is followed by a sound. Jing Yuan also changed his face when he heard the speech and pulled Zhuo Xihu behind him. The thin needles flying all over the sky, and the first wave was dissipated outside the cabin by the sound of the piano. When the second wave hit, Zi Ran and others had grabbed it and danced a screen with a sword. I didn''t see a disciple of the prison Yuan who had just been knocked down on the ground. He climbed slowly from the ground, put one hand into the pane and pressed the smoke needle switch. When Jing Yuan noticed it, he immediately puffed up his sleeves and waved his internal power outward. But he forgot that when playing the piano, the hyacinth must not stimulate his internal power. At this move, he immediately felt his head numb and swollen, and countless ants ate it and spit out a thin mouthful of blood. Fortunately, at this stop, all the smoke needles were swept on the ground. He could hold his breath and was waiting to adjust, but suddenly there was a severe pain behind him. When he looked down, he saw a sharp dagger in front of his chest. The tip of the dagger was very familiar.


    "Sixth uncle!" Jing Hua rushed up, held Jing Yuan covered with blood, and said to the man in front of him, "what are you doing?"


    Jing Yuan slowly turned around and saw a figure with his hands still holding a knife. His eyes were dull and red. His heart was like a knife, and he suddenly took a fishy sweet bite. But he saw that the man in front of him spewed out a mouthful of blood faster than him, and his body fell down softly.


    Jing Yuan took a step forward and caught the man''s body with a quiet face.


    Zi Ran led the dark guards to wipe out all the hundreds of people in black. For fear of another sneak attack, he rechecked it again.


    The hyacinth held down the slightly trembling string, took a deep breath, made a simple breath adjustment, and then walked over quickly.


    The man was about to stop the wind for a long time


    When Zhuo Xi woke up, she stared at the bed curtain above her head for a long time, looked around again, and found that it was an extremely strange place. Did you cross again? What happened before?


    She recalled that she had just had a strange dream. She seemed to stand behind a familiar figure with her hands covered with blood. As time went on, it was very wonderful to listen to the music of hyacinth in the painted boat that night. But what happened later? She seemed to hear the wind and shouted the word "smoke Luo needle". She knew that this concealed weapon could fire 81 poison needles as thin as smoke Luo as soon as she pressed the switch. Have you been poisoned and crossed again?


    She moved her hand without hindrance. So he used a little force on his waist, sat up with his hands, reached for the water cup placed on the side of the small machine, drank a mouthful, and threw the bronze cup on the floor with a loud bang.


    So footsteps came from outside the door. The next moment the door opened and Wu Xing came in.


    Zhuo''er looked at him in surprise, "big brother?"

 Chapter 73

    When several people sat down in the house, Wu Jiao looked thirteen or four years old, but she was much shorter than Zhuo Xi. She also found this and said in surprise, "six younger sister, I saw you only a few months ago. Why have you grown so much since I haven''t seen you for a few months? "


    I can''t tell them that I''m actually sixteen, but the food before was too poor and grew slowly? Zhuo Xi had to say with a smile, "the food of Hou''s house is too good. Another secret is that you should pay attention to moving your muscles and bones sooner or later, and you will grow faster naturally. When you were a child, did you practice martial arts well? Looks taller than ordinary people? "


    Wu Ru thought and said, "sure enough. Five younger sisters, if you look at the second brother''s writings, you won''t be as tall and strong as your eldest brother. "


    Zhuo Xi asked casually, "I''ve never seen my second brother. Where is he on duty now?"


    Wu Ru said with a smile, "yes, Liu Mei, you haven''t seen your second brother since you were a child. The second brother is now a doctor in Dingzhou Prefecture. Many official documents ordered by Dingzhou Prefecture are from the hands of the second brother. "


    It turned out to be a pen pole. Xianglan is also in Dingzhou. Although it''s OK that the semicolon of Dingzhou is covered by the queen, I''d better write to her when I''m free to give her a chance to contact this second brother. Zhuo Xi thought and praised, "second brother is good."


    Wu Ru looked adored, "that''s."


    At this time, Wu Jiao paid attention to Zhuo Xi, "Liu Mei, you just woke up. What''s wrong with your body?"


    "No, I haven''t eaten for several days. I''m greedy." She smiled.


    Wu Jiao immediately said, "what do you want to eat, six younger sisters? Just let Jingyan tell the kitchen to do it."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "I want to eat Beijing roast duck, crispy ribs, fried hairtail, braised eggplant..."


    Originally confident Wu Jiao became more and more embarrassed, and Wu Ru''s face became more and more gloomy. Because they have never heard of these delicious dishes.


    Surprised Yan couldn''t help laughing and opened a crack.


    Wu Ru saw that even the slaves and maidservants on one side laughed at her, and his anger surged up, "what do you mean, six younger sisters?"


    Zhuo Xi asked blankly, "didn''t you tell the kitchen to do what I want to eat? Surprised, can you write down these dishes? "


    The surprised words cooperated with the blessing of the body, "the maid wrote it down. Now go to the back kitchen to talk to mother Li."


    Wu Jiao held her startled words as she was about to go out, "sister, wait, the food of the Wu family must not be comparable to that of the Hou family. I''m afraid these dishes are difficult to make in Wu''s kitchen. "


    Wu Ru said coldly, "this is Wu''s house. You still think you''re in the Marquis house? Also, when Hou Ye leaves Beijing, there is no place for six younger sisters in Hou''s house, right? Who knows if you pretended to be in a coma for fear of losing face? "


    Startled speech would come forward to theory, Zhuo Xi raised her hand to stop her, "third sister, please speak carefully. I went home to recuperate, but my father didn''t object to the orders of the marquis. What''s your dissatisfaction? The elder brother and the three doctors can testify whether they pretend to be ill or not. I''m still a seven grade official now. If you see that I can''t pay homage, you can forget it. If you speak so falsely, do you know it''s a crime of contempt for the royal family? " She never claimed to be an official. She found that the official was really comfortable.


    Wu Ru was surprised, but he still said, "I''m just asking whether it''s true or false. If you have no ghosts in your heart, what official power do you put on? "


    "Hehe, I''ve never put my authority before. I''ll put it here." Zhuo Xi stood up and shouted, "dare to make trouble for the people. Don''t you pay homage quickly when you see my official?!"


    Wu Rutong was scared to kneel on the ground. Wu Jiao was calm and knelt down slowly.


    This is really enough. Zhuo Xi slowly said in a deep voice, "despise the royal family, exile thousands of miles, or copy all over the door. I hope you two will be careful in your words and deeds in the future. Get up. "


    Wu Jiao held Wu ruzhong, who was weak all over, and sat down in a chair again. She dared not speak for a long time.


    Surprised Yan handed a cup of tea, Zhuo Xi took a sip, "the two sisters are sorry. It''s about the reputation of the Hou family and the Wu family. My sister has to do this. I also hope the two sisters should be cautious outside. Don''t mess with your father if you''re not careful, brother. "


    Wu Jiao shivered for a moment before she found her voice. "Six younger sisters, three elder sisters are frank. Please don''t worry about six younger sisters."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "my sisters, I don''t need to care so much. But I''m still curious. It''s the order of the Marquis that I live in this remote courtyard. I will neither hinder you nor disturb you. Why are you so unwelcome? "


    Wu runa couldn''t speak, so Wu Jiao had to answer, "six younger sister, I''ve been used to getting along since childhood. Suddenly, a stranger lived here, but I''m not used to it. Sister, don''t take it to heart. "


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "are you afraid of robbing your share? Or are you afraid of sharing your favor? " In fact, neither of them is rare to her.


    Wu Jiao replied awkwardly, "how could it? We... "


    Wu Ru suddenly shouted, "the three of us are as old as we are. We will take part in the palace election in March this year. You don''t have to take part in the election if you have suitable servants. But now you are sent back in a coma, just as a concubine is taken home. So how can I get into the palace? "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. "Do you two want to enter the palace?"


    "No..." Wu Jiaoli denied, but Wu Ru said, "who doesn''t want to enter the palace? If you are deeply favored by honor, it will be a step to the sky and full of glory... "


    Wu Jiao hurriedly covered her mouth. "Sixth sister, third sister, she was stunned. We went back to the room first. You should have more rest and don''t tire yourself any more. "


    Zhuo Xi quietly watched the two sisters leave and sighed. I don''t think the third sister has such ambition. What a pity


    The next day, after having breakfast, Zhuo Xi held Jingyan and groped all the way to the Luoqing hospital where the old lady lived. Since I came to the Wu family, it''s really unreasonable not to meet the elders. When I got to the gate of the hospital, I heard that it was very lively inside. The old lady''s tea in the hospital was coming out with her head down. When she looked up and saw that Zhuo Xi had arrived, she quickly welcomed her and said enthusiastically, "Miss Liu is coming. I''m going to invite you over."


    Zhuo Xi and Jing Yan looked at each other and saw their surprise.


    Zhuo Xi walked in and asked faintly, "isn''t it that the Marquis has something to bring me?" I''m afraid someone from Hou''s house can warmly welcome the girl with eyes on her head.


    Tea opened the curtain of the inner room, "Miss Liu, you''ll know when you go in."


    Zhuo Xi went in and the sound inside stopped immediately. A woman sitting under the head of the old lady immediately got up to Zhuo Xi as soon as she saw Zhuo Xi. Her eyes were red before she opened her mouth. "Old slave, please say hello to your excellency." She wiped the corners of her eyes and was about to pay homage.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly held her, "mother Wu, what are you doing?"


    "Oh, my lady, no, my Lord, I''ve seen you for a few days. Why have you lost so much weight?! It''s all the killing talent of the childe! If you''re pregnant, why don''t you keep it at home and go outside? And he did it regardless of the weight! " Mother Wu began to wipe her tears again.


    The old lady was listening to me for a while. What happened to her? Are you pregnant? It was not easy for mother Wu to stop nagging and quickly greeted, "my good granddaughter, how are you? You should stop standing and talking. It''s serious to sit down first. "


    Zhuo Xi held Wu''s mother to sit down under the old lady. She first saluted the old lady and then sat down and said, "grandma, granddaughter''s body is all right. She has been lying for several days without dripping water. It looks a little empty." This is also said to mother Wu, "mother Wu, don''t exaggerate and scare the old lady. I''m just diligent in practicing martial arts and growing faster in recent months, so I look thinner. " She then turned to the old lady, "grandma, yesterday my third sister and fifth sister went to see my granddaughter in my granddaughter''s house. The three of us are about the same age. Yesterday I compared again. My granddaughter is a head taller than them!"


    The old lady said in surprise, "Oh, isn''t it? When you came last time, you stood with them as tall as usual, but it''s only a few months now? It seems that the rice grain of Hou''s house is very nourishing. "


    "Isn''t it?" Mother Wu said proudly, "before the LORD set out for the war, he specially ordered the slave and maid. When the adult woke up, the old slave came with the cook at home to serve the adult."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "is mother Wang coming too?"


    Mother Wu said with a smile, "two days ago, Mrs. Wang picked up the cooking guy and was coming. I said the girl didn''t wake up yet. Sheng stopped her three times before she stopped. I heard that you woke up last night and came over early in the morning. You see, I''ve been sitting here for a long time. Mrs. Wang hasn''t come back yet. "


    Zhuo Xi said helplessly, "Mom Wu, I just go home and live for a few days. Where do I need to move the kitchen? Are you afraid that my family will treat me badly? "


    Mother Wu said, "this is what the Marquis told me personally. Mrs. Wang also said, "I''m afraid you can''t get used to other people''s meals. She can''t rest assured until she makes it up herself."


    The old lady then put in a joke and said, "I don''t know. I thought you were serving my wife! Interesting. Xiao liu''er is right. Where is there no good food and drink at home? "


    Mother Wu said positively, "the girl is not the future..."


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly interrupted her, but she couldn''t talk nonsense. "Mom Wang is really right. I''m going back to my own house. Where can I get used to eating? You''re here. What about ah Xin? "


    "The girl still remembers her!" Mother Wu skimmed her mouth.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "she didn''t mean it! What''s more, she needs more hands to serve two people. "


    The old lady still didn''t understand, "what do you mean by a Xin?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "grandma, crown prince tengju and crown princess are now recovering from injuries in Hou''s house. Ah Xin is the crown princess."


    The old lady said in surprise, "is it true that the prince was injured?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "it''s true. Now there are foreign men living in the house. Although they are the couple, the male owner of the Hou house is not here. It seems that the granddaughter will stay with the old lady for a few more days. "


    The old lady nodded and smiled, "I really want it. Another granddaughter will accompany me to relieve my boredom. "


    Mother Wu quickly got up and saluted, "thank you, old lady. I have to take care of the girl''s daily life. I have to nag your house for a few days. Please bear with me."


    The old lady smiled, "what did you say, mother Wu! Although Xiao liu''er has a post in your Hou''s house, she is still the daughter of my Wu family. Will someone gossip when she comes back to her mother''s house for a few days? "

 Chapter 74

    "That''s the reason." Another voice came back abruptly. The people looked at the door. It was the eldest lady Liu who lifted the curtain and came in, followed by Wu Jiao and Wu Ru, "my daughter of the Wu family will not be wronged anyway."


    She said to the old lady and said hello. The two girls behind also saluted together.


    Mother Wu got up and blessed Liu with Zhuo Xi, "met her mother" and "met her wife".


    Liu quickly raised his hand, "are you going to break the bitch?" It''s said that mother Wu also has grade.


    They got up. Liu stepped forward and held Zhuo Xi''s hand. "Yuan''er, how are you? During your coma, I sent ruer and jiao''er to see you every day. I hope you can get better as soon as possible. Fortunately, you''ll wake up in three days, otherwise you won''t get in the rice and water, and you don''t know how much you''ll lose. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and patted her hand back. "Mother is worried. Xiao Liu is fine." Every time she heard Wu Yuan''s name, she hated it. She couldn''t call herself Zhuo Xi in front of them, so she had to give herself a nickname.


    "Xiao Liu?" Liu Shi didn''t react for a moment.


    The old lady had said with a smile, "she''s the sixth, isn''t she the sixth?"


    "Exactly, exactly." Liu understood and immediately echoed, "I''ve really been close to a lot with such a call! Although Xiao liu''er grew up in a different hospital, it was said that the eight characters collided with youge''er at that time. Fortunately, youge''er has been released now. Xiao liu''er is at the right time to go home. What do you lack in the house now? Just come and tell me! I haven''t seen you in the past few months. Xiao liu''er''s stature has suddenly increased a lot. I''ll ask the family''s needle and thread to measure it for you and make some new clothes. "


    After saying hello to Liu, mother Wu didn''t sit down again. After listening to this, she was very uncomfortable and her face was slightly cold. "Lord Hou specially ordered the old slave to take good care of the girl. The old slave cleaned up all the things the girl used in the Hou house a few days ago. Although the clothes were enough, many of them were new models of Feiyu zuiyuan! Where does it need to be done? "


    Liu''s face said, "Hou Ye is careful. Mother Wu bothered." She had obviously felt that Wu Jiao and Wu Ru next to the ranking heard Wu''s mother say that Zhuo Xi''s clothes were the new style of Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan. They looked at each other, and their hearts were mixed.


    "It doesn''t matter. By the grace of the old lady, I have rewarded my girl with a small abandoned kitchen next to the falling moon courtyard. We''ll clean it up. In the future, the old slave will be responsible for all the daily food of the girl, and all the expenses will be paid by the Duke of the Hou house."


    Liu''s heart thumped when he heard the word "my girl". At last, he was completely shocked. Is this the regulation of serving the Marquis''s wife? This common woman is only a seven grade waiter in Hou''s house. How does it seem that she is going back to Wu''s family to save her relatives? She glanced at the shocked old lady on the seat, and couldn''t help asking, "what does Hou mean..." she is the housewife. It''s always right to care about the marriage of common women, isn''t it?


    Mother Wu''s face was better after saying these things. "What Hou Ye means is what we slaves mean."


    Liu Shi stifled, but remembered later, "that small kitchen has been abandoned for many years. How can it be used? It''s better to move things to the kitchen of the east courtyard, with all kinds of pots and pans, which is also convenient for you to use. " At this time, she didn''t care to hit the old lady''s face. First please the people of Hou''s house.


    The old lady also never expected that mother Wu would serve Zhuo Xi as the wife of the marquis. She also felt that she had been somewhat neglected before. Smelling the speech, she quickly nodded, "that''s right. The moon setting yard of Xiao liu''er is really remote. It''s better to move to grandma first and see where there is free yard later. "


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly stopped, "don''t bother grandma. Xiao Liu strolled in the yard yesterday. It''s better than quiet. It''s very good for Xiao Liu to recover from illness. Mother Wang has gone to tidy up the small kitchen, and she doesn''t have to toss around. It''s said that it''s close to the moon setting courtyard. I think it should be good. "


    The old lady and Liu both breathed out and heard Zhuo Xi say, "that''s... I used to have a lot of sundries in Hou''s house. There is a small abandoned garden next to the falling moon courtyard. Xiao liuer saw it yesterday. Can you reward me for planting some flowers?" Zhuo Xi made a request impolitely.


    Liu nodded quickly, "no problem, no problem."


    Zhuo Xi turned to Wu Jiao and Wu Ru again. "Two sisters, I''m going home to recover from my illness now. Our sisters can be close and close to each other more. If you''re free, come to the moon falling hospital more."


    They were already stunned and nodded mechanically.


    "By the way, mother Wu, did you also move the herbal tea I poured in Hou''s house?"


    Mother Wu immediately smiled, "of course, I brought them all. The old slave also made up his own mind to pack a bag of medlar, red dates and chrysanthemum tea that was given to the Empress Dowager last time. Here it is! As soon as the old slave entered the Wu family, he was treated by the old lady and drank tea here. It''s too late to report to you. "


    Zhuo Xi took the tea bag and held it to the old lady. The old lady heard that mother Wu said it was flower tea for the Empress Dowager. She had been looking forward to it for a long time. Seeing it, she quickly picked it up and was happy with flowers on her face.


    Zhuo Xi said, "grandma, Xiao Liu hasn''t been filial to you since childhood. This flower tea can clear the heart and eyes, replenish qi and calm the mind. It is most suitable for you. Please take a bag of boiled blisters every day and keep drinking. You will feel it. "


    "Ah, good, good boy." The old lady patted her hand and wet her eyes. After all, the child still felt some debt to her. Unexpectedly, she just woke up from a coma for three days and gave herself a big gift. This tea belongs to the Empress Dowager. There must be no place to buy it. I feel ashamed of this thought.


    Zhuo Xi turned to Liu again, "my mother, mother Wu is a newcomer, and everything hasn''t been straightened out yet. I also sent a kind of rose tea to the palace, which can beautify and nourish the face, soothe the liver and regulate qi. It is most suitable for you! I''ll be ready to bring it to you tomorrow. "


    When Liu heard that he was sent to the palace, he knew it was for the queen to drink. He was excited to think that he could be treated like the queen. He nodded again and again: "OK, don''t worry. Just tidy it up slowly." She said to Wu''s mother, "I don''t know how many people you brought? I''m afraid the wing room of the falling moon hospital is not enough. I''ve wronged six children. "


    Mrs. Wu smiled, "madam, don''t worry. Only Mrs. Wang and I live here. Other buyers and transporters come here every day. Please open a convenient door."


    "Sure, sure." Liu said with a smile.


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was almost the same, so she got up and said goodbye, "grandma, mother, Xiao liuer was unconscious for several days before he woke up. I''m afraid he can''t stay for a long time, and let me go back. Come back tomorrow on Saturday. How are you? "


    The old lady said with concern, "never mind. You can go back and have a rest. After a few days, I''ll come back and talk to my old woman. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, smiled at Wu Ru, who was unconvinced on his face, saluted and took Wu''s mother away.


    Wu Ru snorted, "isn''t it supported by Hou''s house?!"


    Liu scolded coldly, "don''t talk nonsense!"


    "Niang ~" she said coquettishly.


    Liu quickly saluted the old lady, "if you can have a good rest, your daughter-in-law will leave first."


    The old lady waved and was staring at the tea with boiling water.


    Liu took the two girls and hurried away.


    "Mother, why are you smiling at her like that?! She''s not madam Hou''s house yet. What kind of lady''s airs?! " Wu Ru took his mother''s arm and whined.


    Wu Jiao walked quietly. She knew that although Wu Ru was the third, she would never catch up with her.


    Liu patted her hand and sighed, "ru''er, it seems that even if you are not the first lady of Hou''s house, the second lady can''t run away. Unexpectedly, this wild girl who was sent to another hospital to grow up could have such luck. "


    Wu Ru was born out of wedlock, not to mention being spoiled since childhood. He also held great hope for his future marriage. Similarly, the eldest sister married a small air doctor, and she was already too proud. Her mother often showed off among the ladies in the circle. Since she knew that the daughter of a senior official above Sanpin could participate in the palace election at the age of 13, and her father was promoted to Sanpin last year, she suddenly obtained the qualification to participate in the palace election. How can she let go? She refused the marriage her mother wanted to make for her early, so that the five younger sisters were unable to negotiate a marriage. In order to help her enter the palace, her mother said that she needed the help of her own sister.


    At this time, after listening to her mother''s words about other people''s ambition, she was not angry. She said, "it''s just a marquis lady. If she is elected to the palace in March, her daughter..."


    Liu shouted, "ru''er!" Stop her.


    She was startled, and her eyes immediately looked at her mother, "mother ~"


    Liu sighed, "ru''er, how can you live when you enter the cannibal deep palace? Look at jiao''er. She is calm. Only such a person can be invincible. Listen to your mother. If you are determined to enter the palace and leave the palace, there will be more than two months to choose. During this time, you are good to learn needlework, read books and learn rules with jiao''er. If you are still so impetuous, you may as well not go to the palace election in March. "


    Wu Ru''s eyes were red and red. She flattened her mouth and wanted to say something. Wu Jiao took her arm and said softly, "third sister, mother is reasonable. Third sister, don''t make her angry again. I drew a new pattern of a handkerchief yesterday. Let''s go and have a look. If you like it, I''ll embroider it and give it to you. "


    Liu nodded admiringly at Wu Jiao, "you are still sensible, jiao''er. If you really choose it, jiao''er, you have to take care of your third sister. "


    Wu Jiaofu said, "what did mother say. The third sister has loved jiao''er since she was a child. If she is lucky enough to be selected into the palace together, jiao''er will try her best to plan for the third sister. "


    Liu looked at Wu Ru with a look of disbelief. She didn''t know what to do with her. She was used to her childhood temperament. Finally, she sighed and said, "go now. These days, you have to sharpen your temper and don''t go anywhere. "


    The two girls should go slowly.


    Liu Shi looked at their distant back and looked at the direction of the falling moon courtyard in the West. There was a wisp of smoke curling up there. He knew that the courtyard was beyond his control. Earlier, she just asked two girls to test Xiao Liu''s condition, and she didn''t know what the situation was. Although there were two newly sent sweeping women, they were sent back today before they had time to explain what they had done. Now she wants to put effective people in place, I''m afraid it won''t work. Although she doesn''t want to do anything yet, there has never been anything she can''t see or move under her eyes. This feeling made her very uncomfortable. She remembered what mother Wu said about their buying in and out, raised her hand and called a girl to invite the housekeeper.

 Chapter 75

    Zhuo Xi went back to the falling moon courtyard in silence. Mother Wu saw her face uneasy and didn''t dare to say more. Startled words followed quietly. Zhuo Xi passed the small kitchen not far from the right side of the door. She saw that there seemed to be a figure gathering inside. She paused, but she didn''t say anything. She went straight into the hall in the middle of the hospital, sat down on the main seat, stared at mother Wu in front of her, and said nothing.


    Mother Wu intuitively raised herself from the soles of her feet with cold air. She thought that she had stayed with the Marquis for a long time. She learned the frightening momentum for ten times. After holding on for a while, she couldn''t help but soften her feet and knelt down.


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "why did mother Wu give this gift? Zhuo Xi is only a small seven grade female official. How can she afford it? But don''t break my life! "


    "Madam! Madam must not say such a thing. I don''t know what the old slave did wrong? Please show me. "


    "Madam?!" Zhuo Xi repeated these two words coldly.


    As soon as Wu''s mother is Lin, she can be punished by pulling out her tongue with these two words she keeps shouting! She straightened up, "husband, my lord taught me that it was the old slave. The old slave did come to serve the Lord at the Lord''s order. Please don''t brush the Lord''s kindness. "


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Jing Yan. Jing Yan understood. She went outside and closed the door tightly. Zhuo Xi said in a deep voice, "Mom Wu, I respect you as an old man in Hou''s house. You are the person that the Marquis trusts, and you are also the person that I trust. Now I have nothing else to ask. Please tell me the truth. Is something wrong in the Marquis house? "


    After thinking for a long time, mother Wu was embarrassed and said, "Sir, in fact, the old slave doesn''t know what happened. Lord Hou only told the old slave and Mrs. Wang to take care of your daily life together, so that you don''t have any worries, so that you can freely carry out your business plans. I also told you that you must come immediately when you wake up. "


    Zhuo Xi''s face slowed down and said in a good voice, "please get up, mother Wu. You can''t do this gift in the future. Like you, I am a newcomer here. There are many places that need your advice. You and Mrs. Wang came at the right time. In the future, Zhuo Xi will rely on you! " She got up and gave a big gift to mother Wu.


    After listening to mother Wu''s expression, how could she not hear the meaning of the struggle in the deep house for most of her life? She quickly returned a gift, "Sir, you and the Marquis help each other along the way, and the old slave sees it. I know what happened between you and the marquis. The old slave hasn''t been able to find a chance to speak to you. In the eyes of the old slave and Mrs. Wang, you are our wife and our master. Although we don''t know if something has happened in the Marquis house, we know that the Marquis wants us to guard and protect you for him here. I dare not let you have any mistakes. So you can rest assured that the old slave will stare at the falling moon courtyard and even the whole Wu family, inside and outside. "


    Zhuo Xi was relieved to see that she had made up her heart, "you and mother Wang can live in the East Wing room at ease. Surprised speech is in the West Wing room, in which there is still a bed for Xiao soul. "


    Mother Wu replied, "the old slave will clean up first."


    Zhuo Xi thought of going to Meng, who was a boy and couldn''t live in Wu''s backyard. She thought about the shortcut, "please send someone to invite Kou Niang here tomorrow. Then let someone pick up Xiaobai and Xiaomeng and have a talk over the house. "


    Wu''s mother withdrew at the promise.


    Zhuo Xi asked one side of Jingyan, "Jingyan, what''s wrong with my coma for three days?"


    Surprised speech thought, "you just don''t wake up in the daytime. There''s nothing unusual."


    Zhuo Xi asked sensitively, "day? What about the night? "


    "At night? I don''t know. The maidservant is only guarding the young lady in the daytime and the young master in the evening. "


    "Big brother? How? " Zhuo Xi asked in surprise.


    Startled, he shook his head. "I don''t know. The first night, the maidservant was supposed to keep the young lady all the time. The young master insisted that the maidservant go back and rest, saying that he would keep it at night and change it in the daytime. I had no choice but to go back to my room and have a rest. "


    "Did you hear anything that night?"


    The surprised speech thought and shook his head. "The slave and maid seemed to sleep very heavily and didn''t hear anything."


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Jingyan and ordered, "Jingyan, ask my eldest brother for some medical classics. You can find all the versions that can be found in the official or Jianghu."


    The surprised words answered and promised to go.


    Zhuo Xi thought a little and shouted to the air, "Xiao soul."


    A slender figure appeared, "what''s the matter, girl?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at Xiao soul''s pale face, "Xiao soul, have you been here?"


    Xiao soul looked up at her, "girl, my subordinates came with mother Wu today."


    "That is to say, after I was unconscious on the night of Shangyuan Festival, you were not with me?"


    "No, I haven''t followed you since you got on the boat."


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "why?" As a close secret guard, why should he leave his post without permission?


    "My Lord said, where he is, I will disappear by myself." Xiao soul said expressionless.


    "Er..." Zhuo Xi said, "so you didn''t know what happened in the boat that day?"


    "My subordinates heard that the hyacinth childe used her Tianyin zither. Although it was an ordinary nanmu zither, the effect was slightly weaker, but it was still very destructive."


    "What was it like when you saw me?"


    "I hold you covered with blood. Then the Lord asked me to go back to the house immediately to protect Prince Rong. It was not until yesterday that mother Wu called me to come with her and said it was my Lord''s order. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed. Knowing that there was no more information to ask, she said, "you can squeeze a room with Jingyan at night. It''s freezing. Don''t stay outdoors if you have nothing to do. I don''t mind if you show up in the room. Come on, have a sip of this hot tea to warm yourself up. " She pushed the freshly brewed tea in front of her.


    Xiao soul picked up the teacup and drank it without looking. Zhuo Xi stared at the hot tea. At this time, there was no drop left. Does the girl want to be so tough? That''s just hot tea!


    Xiao soul still stared at her expressionless, "what''s the matter with the girl?"


    Zhuo Xi decided to tease the girl who loved to pretend to be forced, "you''re finished!"


    "What?" Xiao soul didn''t blink.


    Zhuo Xi took the teacup and showed it to her, "do you see the little white flowers next to here? This is the unique flower of death in the verdant mountains, the welcome flower, which is extremely poisonous. "


    Xiao soul sneered, "girl, do you think I haven''t seen it? Isn''t this ordinary osmanthus? "


    Zhuo Xi was stifled in her heart, but her face was silent, "how can osmanthus flowers come from this cold winter? You can see clearly that Osmanthus fragrans has three small petals and no stamens. This welcome flower has four petals and stamens. Its virulence is hidden in the pollen on this pistil. " I don''t believe you have observed the little osmanthus carefully.


    Xiao soul looked carefully. Sure enough, it was four petals with pistils. His face changed, "why did you poison the girl?"


    Zhuo Xi clapped her hands and said with a smile, "I hate it most when someone speaks. The flower of death grows at the bottom of verdant cliffs and grows all year round. Do you feel a chill in your upper abdomen and a faint pain? "


    Xiao soul felt it by pressing his belly. Sure enough, he felt some dull pain. He bit his teeth and asked, "what do you want, girl?"


    Zhuo Xi propped her cheek with her hand and asked, "tell me, what else did you see that night?"


    Xiao soul seemed to recall, closed his eyes and looked back at death, "No."


    "I''m hurt?" Zhuo Xi then asked another question.


    "No." She didn''t want to blurt it out.


    Zhuo Xi opened her eyes, but she asked casually. She didn''t expect to have such an extraordinary harvest. She knew there must be something different between herself and Jingyuan, otherwise she wouldn''t hide it from her one by one.


    Zhuo Xi took the teapot again and brewed the tea again. In addition, she filled it with a cup. Small Osmanthus fragrans also floated on the surface of the cup. After blowing it cool, she drank it in one gulp. Xiao soul was stunned.


    Zhuo Xi laughed and said, "yes, that''s what a girl should have. Although it''s not so obvious, you don''t often wear a face in the future."


    Xiao soul was angry and said, "girl, deceive me?"


    "It''s not deception, it''s deception. I didn''t expect you to be so easy to cheat, ha ha. " Zhuo Xi pointed to her angry face and laughed.


    Xiao soul gnashed his teeth. "Isn''t this a welcome flower?"


    "Where did you get the welcome flower? This is osmanthus, ha ha ha. " Zhuo Xi held her belly and laughed.


    "How about I feel a dull pain in my upper abdomen?" Xiao soul still doesn''t give up.


    "Osmanthus fragrans is cold. If you hide in the dark all year round, you must be cold. Cold stomach and cold tea will naturally aggravate stomach pain. But it''ll be all right. " Zhuo Xi smiled and looked at Xiao soul''s angry and ashamed face. She was in a much better mood. Everyone openly takes her as the master, but she doesn''t know anything at the critical time. What if she doesn''t take revenge?


    Xiao soul closed his eyes and stamped, "is the girl all right? If it''s all right, my subordinates will go. "


    Zhuo Xi got up and wanted to go to the pharmacy outside the door to find some medicine for her to take, but suddenly remembered that this was the Wu family, so she had to wave her hand and say, "it''s all right, remember in the evening..."


    Before she finished, the figure disappeared in a flash. She had to mumble and say, "eat some hot food."


    The next day, mother Wu asked someone to bring Meng and Xiaobai. When Meng saw zhuoxi, he would rush up, "sister zhuoxi, I haven''t seen you for a few days. Why are you here?"


    Zhuo Xi touched his head, "Xiao Meng, you will grow up one year in a year. My sister asked aunt kou to help you find a school to read and write, and then come back with me when you''re finished, okay? "


    Xiaomeng carefully took Xiaobai out of his sleeve. "Can Xiaomeng still go to school with Xiaobai?"


    Zhuo Xi took Xiaobai over with a smile, "you go to school, Xiaobai doesn''t want to go to school. Right, Xiaobai? "


    Xiaobai has not seen Zhuo Xi for several days. She is also very happy. As soon as she hears this, she quickly nods her head.


    Zhuo Xi looked at its small body and frowned, "Xiaobai, have you been bad lately? Doesn''t seem to have a long head? "


    Go to Meng said, "Xiaobai has been like this years ago. Has he become an adult?"


    Zhuo Xi tilted her head and asked it directly, "Xiaobai, how old are you? Are you an adult? "


    Xiaobai looked at her in confusion.


    Zhuo Xi thought about giving up and patted him on the head. "Forget it, don''t grow up again. My sleeve can''t hold you."


    "Sister Zhuo Xi, if Xiao Meng went to school, can he often see you? Like sister Xianglan, you won''t go far away and never see each other for a long time? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "no, sister Zhuo Xi is in Kyoto and won''t go anywhere for the time being. If you live in a school, you should listen to your master and come here to see me on vacation. "


    Go to Meng and nod happily.


    At this time, mother Wu reported that Kou Niang had arrived.


    "Invite her in."


    Kou Niang came in and invited Zhuo Xi an with a happy face.


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "is there another happy event in Mrs. Kou''s family?"


    Kou Niang said happily, "the girl guessed right. During the Spring Festival, there are always contacts between relatives. No, as soon as they come and go, the dog''s marriage will be settled. It''s the daughter of a scholar''s family. In my heart, the biggest stone has fallen to the ground. "


    Zhuo Xi opened her mouth. "You, you, if I remember correctly, you told me last time that your Xuaner was only ten years old?"


    "Isn''t it eleven after the new year? As for the boy, we discussed the marriage earlier and made a decision earlier. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. "Then, that girl, won''t she be only eight years old?"


    Kou Niang shook her head. "This time the girl guessed wrong. That girl is one year older than my xuan''er. Female freshman, hold the gold brick. "


    Well, Zhuo Xi said, "Kou Niang, please come today. I want to ask you for something."


    "You''re welcome, girl. If you can do anything, just tell me."


    Zhuo Xi pulled over to Meng. "This is my cousin from a distant family. She called." she remembered that Meng used to be a slave without a surname, and her real surname Yu couldn''t be used, so she temporarily took a surname, "Yu Meng, he just turned ten this year. Can you find a school for him to study and practice calligraphy?" Remember to ask someone to go to the government to change his name.


    Kou Niang looked around and went to Meng, "Young Master Yu, is he an official?"


    "No, it''s a craftsman." Zhuo Xi knows this identity is very important.


    Mrs. Kou breathed a sigh of relief. "It''s easy to do. If you''re a craftsman, go to that private school with my xuan''er."

 Chapter 76

    Zhuo Xi nodded, "very good. I don''t want any university to ask. It''s good to be reasonable and understand words. "


    She turned to go to Meng and said, "Xiao Meng, you should first arrange with Kou Niang and study for a few years. If you have a field you like in the future, we''ll find another school to study. How about this arrangement? "


    Meng deeply bowed, "thank you for your arrangement. Xiao Meng will live up to his expectations and study hard. "


    Zhuo Xi joked, "very good. I have a chance to read more medical classics. I''m still waiting for you to translate for me." She pointed to a pile of bamboo slips found by Jingyan. Some words were difficult to understand, and she had to find someone to translate.


    Qumeng immediately became interested and picked up a roll, "sister, can I take it back first?"


    Zhuo Xi remembered what Meng had just said and asked, "by the way, Kou Niang, do they want to live in the school? How often can I take a rest? "


    Kou Niang nodded and said, "the school is in Lianzhuang, five miles in the eastern suburb. The children live together and can take a rest at the end of each month. At that time, I''ll let the carriage at home take xuan''er and young master Biao back together. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and then reflected who she said young master Biao was. She couldn''t help but say happily, "just call him Xiao Meng. What watch young master doesn''t watch young master? It''s not so expensive. I''ll trouble you about Xiao Meng. Shu Xiu, please deduct it from my account first. Those who should be filial to the teacher are welcome. I''ll have it sent to your house later. " Kou Niang nodded and promised. She said again and again that she was welcome and would get things done.


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "Xiao Meng, go with Kou Niang first. Come back to me at the end of every month. My sister will spot check your studies. You can''t be lazy. "


    Xiao Meng waved his fist and promised to follow Kou Niang.


    Mother Wu sent them back after they left. Her face showed doubt, "is Xiao Meng really your distant cousin?"


    Zhuo Xi hesitated and told the truth, "he is the child I rescued in the mountain. It is very likely that he is my relative."


    "What do you say?"


    Zhuo Xi really didn''t know where to start with the jade bone token, so she had to ask again, "Mom Wu, have you been in the palace? Are you familiar with it? "


    Mother Wu nodded, "I lived in the palace for more than ten years with the concubine Xianru. Six years ago, after the death of Princess Ru, I came to the Marquis to take care of him. "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "do you know that there is a place called Fengyuan in the palace, where there is an old eunuch who attends to flowers and plants?"


    "You mean Duke Chu?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head, "I don''t know what he calls. To be honest with mother Wu, before I met the Marquis, I was captured from the palace and buried in the former king''s mausoleum. After escaping from the tomb, I went to the mausoleum villa. I met you by mistake. There was no memory before. "


    Mother Wu suddenly rejoiced. The girl told her so frankly. I think she really regarded her as her own person, "I see. Then the Duke of Chu knows you?"


    Zhuo Xi explained the look and behavior of the old eunuch who lost her way after she was left by the guide Eunuch in the palace and broke into the wind garden by mistake.


    "Do you remember the pattern painted on the handkerchief?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "it''s a cluster of orchids."


    Mother Wu''s face changed a little, "what color of orchid is it?"


    "It''s strange to say that orchids have always been famous for their elegance and coldness. The color on this handkerchief is warm. It''s big red orchid leaves and big purple flowers."


    Mother Wu''s hands trembled. "Do you really see big red orchid leaves and purple orchids?"


    "Yes. Mother Wu must know this flower. What is the purpose of this flower? "


    Mother Wu took a deep breath, "this kind of pattern has never appeared in the palace. If it''s not bad, this handkerchief should be the handkerchief that Xianru lost when she entered the palace. It''s also the only relic of her mother that she brought from the Gelao family. I just don''t know how this handkerchief was picked up by an old eunuch and presented to you? Is it not that the old eunuch is an old imperial concubine? If the imperial concubine is an old man, why does the old slave know nothing? " She calmed down and asked several questions, but she was still puzzled.


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. If she said it, she didn''t say it. Did he have anything to do with the great imperial concubine Xianru who died five years ago? It seems that I need to go to the palace sometime.


    "Girl, do you know your name in the palace?" Mother Wu also thought of this connection and asked tentatively.


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "I don''t remember at all."


    "So what are the five?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "Wu Xing is the eldest brother I recognized halfway. He forged the wealth document for me and called me the daughter whose father raised in the yard. Only then did he enter the house to recognize his relatives."


    Mother Wu shook her head, "according to yesterday''s situation, I''m afraid your identity is not temporarily forged, but a real person, but you recognized it first. That''s really Wu Yuan. I''m afraid it''s more or less bad... "


    If there is no one in the family, it may be that they can not protect their own lives. If they grow up in the family, they may be full of affection. If so, you will have done a great evil.


    "It''s strange. My daughter came back to the Wu family for more than ten years, but she never met the so-called biological mother aunt Zhou once. Mother Wu, I''m afraid the Wu family is not as simple as it seems. You''ll have to take more trouble. "


    Mother Wu nodded. "I understand. Today, mother Wang brewed glutinous rice dumplings and just gave them to ladies and aunts in the house. This is also a piece of filial piety of the girl, isn''t it?"


    Zhuo Xi was so happy that he couldn''t help hugging mother Wu. "Mother Wu, you are really exquisite!"


    "Mrs. Wu, I can''t even scare you away." She was surprised that she had said the wrong thing again. Knowing that the girl didn''t like others to call her lady, she quickly said, "girl, it''s the old slave who said the wrong thing."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and sighed, "you don''t need to be nervous. I know your mind. This is not the Marquis house. We''d better be careful. "


    "The girl is right." Mother Wu finished and went down to prepare.


    Zhuo Xi lay in bed and opened her eyes in a daze for a while. She felt that the bed was small, hard and cold. Even if it was tilted casually, she had to wear a thick jacket. She couldn''t help but miss the big Kang in Hou''s house. He thought that his new house, which had been decorated for three months, had made wedding clothes for others. He cried and buried his face in the quilt.


    When surprised Yan came in with a medicine bowl, he found that the master covered the quilt and beat it with both hands. He thought she was crying. He was so frightened that his hands shook and the hot medicine juice was sprinkled on his hands. She quickly put the medicine bowl on the table, and then carefully called miss. When she saw that she didn''t immerse herself in the quilt, and her shoulders sometimes smoked, she didn''t dare to call again. She had to stand still, thinking of her earth shaking life in recent days, the distance between miss and Hou ye, and the words said by miss three a few days ago, she couldn''t help feeling a little sad from her heart. Her nose was sour and tears rolled down. After a while, he cried more and more fiercely. Biting his lips, he couldn''t help the cry. When he cried, he felt that he had held a warm embrace and simply burst into tears. After venting his emotions, he slowly stopped crying, but a gentle voice in his ear asked, "Yan''er, but some sisters are short of food and clothes?"


    Startled, he shook his head again and again, "No."


    "But someone treats you badly? Bullying you? "


    "No, Miss treated me very well."


    "Then why are you so sad?"


    "Miss, miss, she..." startled and gasped, "the maid felt that miss was very poor."


    "How pathetic is she?"


    Surprised Yan felt that he had a gentle hand on his back, which was very comfortable. He took a breath again, thought for a while and said slowly, "Miss, just escaped death. But the Marquis is still alive and dead, and he is thousands of miles away. Sobbing... What if something happens to the Marquis and the young lady... What can I do in the future... "


    The voice of the questioner was suddenly tight, "Hou Ye was seriously injured?"


    Surprised Yan closed his eyes and nodded, "Hou ye said that he can''t be known by outsiders, especially by people in the palace."


    Otherwise, once the news of Hou Ye''s assassination comes out, it will be another bloody storm. No, the most important thing now is to protect miss! Surprised Yan shook his fist, woke up, left the warm embrace, wiped his tears carelessly, and saw Zhuo Xi''s sullen face enlarged in front of him. She was startled and her tongue was knotted. "Little, little, miss..."


    Zhuo Xi grabbed her hand and asked word by word, "where did Hou Ye hurt? How did you get hurt? "


    Startled, he waved his hand casually, "where did you get hurt?! No, the Marquis was not hurt. "


    Zhuo Xi stared at her, "who is your master? When are you going to hide it from me? "


    Startled, he knelt on the ground, "Miss, of course you are the master of the slave." She slowly softened her body and knew that she couldn''t hide it. "Miss, Lord Hou hurt his heart. I don''t know how he was hurt. When the maidservant took you from his arms that day, she found that his heart was flowing with blood. It should be a sharp weapon that pierced his heart. "


    Zhuo Xi only felt her limbs soft, and an unprecedented fear invaded her. She put her hands on the soft quilt and breathed. Therefore, Jing Yuan was anxious to leave the next day and send her to the Wu family for cultivation, just for fear that she would wake up and find herself seriously injured? What happened that night?


    Zhuo Xi stood up and shouted, "surprised speech, get up and dress for me. I''m going back to the marquis. "


    Surprised words rushed up, "Miss, you must not wake up. You can''t blow. You''d better leave the house for two days."


    Zhuo Xi''s face was gloomy. "It''s not a good idea for Prince Rong and princess to rest in the house for a long time without the host''s greeting. As a servant of the Marquis, it''s time for me to go and have a look. "


    "Miss......" surprised Yan wanted to say something, but he kept silent under Zhuo Xi''s awe inspiring eyes, so he had to get up slowly and walk slowly to the wardrobe.


    Zhuo Xi quickly changed her clothes, combed her hair style, took a hairpin at will and was about to go out.

 Chapter 77

    But just out of the door, Wu Ru and Wu Jiao were also coming in. Wu Ru saw Zhuo Xi''s posture of going out, and saw that the hairpin she wore at will looked like the new style of Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan. Jealous of it, she said bitterly, "Yo, sister, it''s not two days since she woke up from her serious illness, so she''s in a hurry to go out?"


    Zhuo Xi was not in the mood to deal with them at this time, so she said directly, "what''s the matter with the two sisters coming?"


    Wu Ru asked sharply, "why, we two sisters come to see your six sisters. It can''t be the same thing?" Yesterday, I heard that she invited her two to sit down in front of her grandmother. I thought there was something to give them. Can I have a pot of good tea at the worst?


    Zhuo Xi said coldly, "if you want to see if I''m unconscious again, you two will be disappointed. If you see if I''m well, it''s not so fast. It''s the same to come back tomorrow and the next day. Now I have something to do. If you two don''t mind, you can have a cup of tea here before you go. "


    Wu Ru really wanted to say yes. Wu Jiao quickly waved her hand and said, "six younger sister, since you have something to do, we won''t delay. Help yourself. We have nothing to do. I just heard that you are well-informed and want to chat with you. That''s it. We''ll talk to you again in a few days. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "that little sister won''t give it away. You two take your time. "


    Wu Ru stamped her feet and turned away. Wu Jiao chuckled at Zhuo Xi, "sixth sister, third sister has such a temper. You''ll get used to it. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "fifth sister, thank you."


    When Zhuo Xi kicked open the door on the second floor of Hefeng hall, Jingyan was stunned by her powerful aura.


    A Xin was feeding water to the people on the bed. Hearing that Yan Yan slowly wiped the water stains on Yan Rong''s mouth with a veil, he slowly turned around and asked softly, "Xi''er, what are you crazy about?"


    Surprised Yan looked at the hyacinth in women''s clothes and heard her such a gentle voice. His chin was about to fall off and lost his words completely.


    Zhuo Xi let Jing Yan wait outside, went straight in, didn''t look at the man on the bed, sat down at the small round table in the middle of the bedroom, reached out to pick up the cup, poured some water, drank it all, and asked, "what happened that night?"


    Feng Yingying came over and sat at the table, "which night? Did you also win if there was no fragrance? "


    Zhuo Xi stifled. It''s a damn Feng Shui turn. Take a deep breath, "a Xin, I just want to know how I was unconscious? Jing Yuan, how is he hurt? How did you get hurt? "


    The hyacinth giggled, "you are naturally hurt by my piano sound. That night, the disciples of the prison yuan used the smoke Luo needle. I thought the seventh sound of heaven was too weak, so I added two more. Since the sound of the Ninth Heaven, even people without martial arts are vulnerable to injury. What''s more, you have no Jianghu experience? Coma is the lightest symptom. I don''t need two needles to save you, but I don''t have to thank you after all. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. When did this ah Xin become so cheeky? But more importantly, "what about Jingyuan?"


    "Elder martial brother, he''s fine, but to save you, he''s hurt by a thief in his chest. It''s nothing to suffer some flesh." Hyacinth also poured a cup of tea and said lightly.


    "Seriously?" The dull pain in Zhuo Xi''s heart didn''t seem to disappear, and she didn''t believe the words of hyacinth.


    "I lied to you. He was stabbed in the heart and bleeding. In addition, he went out with the army on the second day, ran all the way, and finally died of blood. Can you believe that? " The hyacinth glanced up at her.


    Zhuo Xi opened her mouth. Indeed, in any case, if she hadn''t seen it with her own eyes, she couldn''t be sure of what others said.


    The letter read through her mind and said, "it''s a taboo for women to follow the army without orders."


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "he broke this example for you a few years ago. Why are you afraid to break it again today?"


    The hyacinth was furious, "he didn''t know I was a daughter! If you know, he... "She paused. Yes, what if senior brother knew she was a daughter? He has never been a woman.


    Zhuo Xi snorted, "if he knew you were a daughter, he would let you go to the battlefield."


    The wind letter said coolly, "so what? Can you compare with me? I can break thousands of troops every day and make wansha City dead overnight. What can you do when you go? Not to break the enemy and surrender the army, but to protect yourself, can you? Can you not drag others down? "


    Zhuo Xi also said coolly, "I just want to see him, but I didn''t say I want to go to the battlefield with him. Dear debater, don''t change your concept, will you? You said that it would not happen that you would defeat thousands of troops every day, and that you could not protect yourself and drag others down. I will only come and go quietly without taking away a cloud. " The stop of the wind letter strengthened her determination.


    The hyacinth was happy. "Well, go. By the way, bring him my question. "


    Zhuo Xi approached her and whispered, "do you only have greetings to him? No concern? No hand gift? "


    The hyacinth sat up straight and said loudly, "now, as the Crown Princess of tengju state, I am deeply impressed by the warm hospitality of the Duke of Guang''an. Naturally, there are concerns and greetings. As for the gift, forget it. "


    Zhuo Xi saw her look unnatural, suddenly her brain hole opened, covered her mouth and pointed at her, "you, you..."


    The hyacinth patted her finger, glanced at the man on the bed and asked, "what am I?"


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized that his tongue was shaking, "you, you, you are right..."


    The hyacinth picked her up decisively the next second. Like the wind, she floated out of the door and carried her to the balcony on the third floor.


    Zhuo Xi laughed loudly, straightened her skirt, stretched out her hand to hold the hyacinth one head higher than her, and asked like a bosom sister, "a Xin, how does it feel to like a person?"


    The hyacinth turned to look into the distance, sighed sadly and said slowly, "very concerned, very helpless, very happy and very sad..."


    "For the first time?" Zhuo Xi gently helped the bat grass planted on the balcony.


    The hyacinth nodded, "for the first time."


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "I thought you were angry that Yan Rong saved you in that way, maybe because you already had someone in your heart, but you were forced to have a skin relationship with Yan Rong. You and Jing Yuan have always been close. I thought that person might be Jing Yuan. But since I saw you planting bat grass all over the balcony, I know that if there is someone in your heart, it will not be Jing Yuan. "


    The hyacinth turned to look at her, "why is there such a inference?"


    "I remember when I invited you to stay in Furong house, you said to plant flowers and herbs on the balcony to make the bedroom full of fragrance. Jing Yuan has been ill for decades. You haven''t planted any herbs for him, but you took so much trouble to plant bone connecting bat grass and gave up your preference. Are you really moved to Yan Rong? But I''ve always wanted to ask you that people like Jing Yuan are modest gentlemen and moist as jade. It''s hard for ordinary women not to be attracted to him. You used to get along with him day and night. Didn''t you have such a mood for him for a moment? "


    "Suddenly, I didn''t believe it," he said.


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and said "Hmm".


    "He always regarded me as a man in his heart. He could never like me. How can I do such a wishful thinking? If he reveals his woman''s identity because of this matter, he will just accept it. But if not, he will not laugh all his life? " Said the hyacinth proudly.


    It''s really possible in her nature. Zhuo Xi smiled, "luckily you didn''t do it. This beautiful jade is cheap for me. A Xin, I want to thank you. "


    The hyacinth smiled, "although he is a beautiful jade, he has the same fragile jade heart. Don''t let him hurt. After all, he is my only relative now. He is now in the south. Although he is injured, he is only a little flesh and blood pain. Don''t worry too much. It''s just that the south is hot and humid and full of insects. I''ve seen the three carts of herbs you prepared for him. Although there are many varieties, the medicine is too orthodox and the effect is slow. If you want to go south to Liangzhou, you might as well bring some folk prescriptions. I have a note here, which is the result of my research on poisons in recent years. It still has a miraculous effect on the poison of cold, heat, dampness and dryness. Are you interested? "


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. "Ah Xin gave me so much money. Xi''er is very grateful."


    "However, there are some unfinished details in this note. I will send someone to send it to you after careful consideration and modification. You can go back to your house to recover. Don''t go out again these days. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her suspiciously, "do you take this to delay me going south? Why? "


    The hyacinth smiled, "wait a few days and you will know. But this matter is also entrusted by Jing Yuan. Believe it or not. "


    "Related to Jing Yuan?"


    The hyacinth nodded, "it''s also about you."


    "In that case, can you tell me what he meant by letting me go back to Wu''s house to recover? Is there a ghost in Hou''s house? "


    "I won''t hide it from you. The prison gate was besieged that day. Senior brother suspected that there were traitors in the house. I was afraid that you might be injured accidentally during your recovery, so I let you move to the Wu family to recover. I just took the opportunity to thoroughly investigate the Hou house. "


    "If this man has an evil heart, aren''t you dangerous?"


    "It doesn''t matter, Yan Rong''s identity is clear, and no one will attack us. Besides, who dares to die with me? "


    Zhuo Xi thought that it was true. Ah Xin wanted to have martial arts and excellent medical skills. If she wanted to poison, she had to think about whether she could retreat all over.


    "Then you should be careful. Is the baby okay?"


    "Good, I seem to feel it moving inside!"


    Zhuo Xi giggled and chatted with her for a while, then returned to Wu''s house with startled words.


    On the carriage, she was lying in a false sleep. Suddenly, she remembered something and asked the surprised speech, "surprised speech, how many feather gate sisters are there in Kyoto now?"


    "There are still dozens of people. However, a number of newly adopted sisters in recent years will be released when they reach the age of 12 this year. Miss, what do you want? "


    "That''s good. Now Feiyu drunk Yuxuan can operate by itself, but after all, the officials occupy too much shares. It''s time for us to do our own business. You should bring these girls here first. It''s ok if they are younger. I''ll temporarily arrange them in the house I asked my mother to buy in sanxiangfang. When everyone is ready, I''ll start training them. But fast. " She doesn''t have much time. Start preparing first.


    The light of hope came out of his eyes, "Miss, are you going to...?"


    Zhuo Xi pinched her little face. "I''m going to open a health hall to teach them some herbal health knowledge. If you''re interested, you can also listen to it."


    Surprised Yan was so excited that she wanted to jump up. She hit the top of the car and remembered that she was in the carriage. She hurriedly left a sentence "maidservant, go now", picked up the driving curtain, jumped off the carriage and floated away.

 Chapter 78

    Kou Niang is really a business veteran. Zhuo Xi just told her about her ideas. The next day she found a shop at a crossroads of sanxiangfang. Zhuo Xi only took a look and made a deposit, and fully entrusted Kou andI to start the design and decoration. She found that the commerce in this era is actually very underdeveloped. The most prosperous streets are only three or two wine shops, one drugstore, and two Rouge powder and antique calligraphy and painting shops. Then there are some stalls for agricultural tools and food exchange along the street. The shop rented by Zhuo Xi is not in the most prosperous center, but it is also a crossroads. There are many pedestrians, especially the official road into the palace is not far away. If the sign is large and high enough, almost half the city can see it. Three days later, the five characters of "Xi Yan Yang Sheng Tang", a sign designed by Zhuo Xi himself, stood on the top of the shop in gold. At night, it still glowed and was extremely eye-catching, but the outside of the shop was covered with a layer of gauze, and the decoration pattern inside could not be seen clearly. So people in Kyoto began to have new speculation and conversation.


    The action of Jingyan was very fast. The next day, he took more than a dozen 11-year-old girls to sanxiangfang.


    The next day, Zhuo Xi and Mrs. Tai invited Ann. After saying hello, she went to sanxiangfang with surprise.


    This courtyard has three entrances. According to Kou Niang, it can accommodate as many as 200 people. The front two yards are separated by Zhuo Xi into a reception area, a consulting room and waiting area, a beauty massage operation area, a leisure and health care sweat steaming area, which integrates beauty and beauty, meridian massage, acupuncture and moxibustion, sweat steaming sauna, bathing and foot bath. In a word, it is all kinds of detoxification. Zhuo Xi believes very much that in order to stay young and cultivate health, These projects will certainly be loved and favored by Xun GUI''s family members. As for those ladies who are older, if they don''t like experiential, they can also choose those nourishing and health care products that replenish the middle and Qi. The price is absolutely innocent for children and old people. They are all opened for Xun GUI. The common people don''t want to think about it.


    As soon as you enter the yard in the back, you will find the living quarters and production and processing areas of the employees. Due to the need for early placement of employees and training and other preliminary preparations, Zhuo Xi specially told Kou andI to decorate the backyard first. Zhuo Xi also prepared a small room for herself, put some commonly used medical tools and surgical supplies, and specially wrote a letter to Ma San to make a thin scalpel for her in case of need. And the dozen girls live here temporarily. When Zhuo Xi stepped into the yard, the yard was very lively. More than a dozen figures were mainly around the kitchen door. Everyone gave a "wow" exclamation every ten seconds, and a girl even screamed, "Wow, sister Xiaoji is great!" The other girls immediately agreed, "great!"


    Zhuo Xi looked inside. It turned out that a girl was pulling noodles next to the hot pot. When she pulled the noodles long, the audience would cry out. A girl looked back, suddenly turned around and squatted, "surprised sister." The sound called everyone''s eyes back. Xiaoji, who was pulling noodles, was no exception. He threw down the dough and rushed out, "sister Jingyan, are you here?"


    Surprised speech caught her small body full of flour, "Xiao Ji, are you cooking noodles?"


    Xiao Ji nodded and said, "yes. The sisters were very excited to see so much white flour and rice in the kitchen. I also found that there was bacon! They couldn''t wait for lunch, so they begged me to go down early. You''ve come just in time. When the noodles are ready, I''ll cook some wild vegetables, mix them with bacon, and you can eat them together! "


    Jingyan hurriedly stopped her from saying, "Xiaoji, Xiaoli, Xiaoguai, you all come here, and you, everyone come here. I want to introduce you to the owner here, Miss Zhuo Xi. She is my miss and your master. Call someone. "


    So this group of 11-year-old and 12-year-old girls saluted irregularly and shouted, some called "master", some called "Miss", and some called "master".


    Zhuo Xi shook her head with a headache, "stop!" No, if you serve those ladies and ladies of honor in the future, there will be problems if you don''t have rules. It seems that you should invite mother Wu to teach them rules.


    She pointed to Xiao Ji, "Xiao Ji, you go and cook the noodles in the pot first. Pick up what should be picked up and continue what should be done. You don''t have to waste these white noodles."


    Xiao Ji jumped up and immediately rushed to the kitchen. Zhuo Xi shouted after him, "remember to wash your hands."


    Zhuo Xi walked around the group of children and asked Jingyan suspiciously, "how short are your feather clothes door funds? How long haven''t they had enough? Haven''t you worn new clothes in years? What did they learn in the feather gate? Is there anyone who can read? " Each one is as thin as a bamboo pole. Many clothes don''t fit. They are either short or long. They are patched.


    Surprised, Yan blushed, hesitated for a while and whispered, "the leader of the feather clothes sect can only provide very limited food and money, and basically can only ensure that these children will not starve to death. As for clothes, most of them were worn by sisters. They didn''t wear new clothes. The feather clothes sect was born in the dark guard, so they have mainly practiced martial arts since childhood, and few can be literate. " She was very embarrassed when she talked about the back.


    Zhuo Xi looked at them clearly. No wonder she didn''t see her old clothes since she made new clothes for Jing Yan. She thought she was enlightened and donated them to these sisters. She asked softly, "do you know what you''re doing here?"


    A taller girl seemed to have more courage, so she stood up and replied, "sister Jingyan said that we were lucky to be released to make a living and didn''t have to be slaughtered and selected as animals. Although we arrived here last night, we all know that you won''t treat us badly if we can sleep in a hot quilt and eat white rice here. No matter what we want to do in the future, we have pressed the red handprint on this selling instrument, that is, we believe you! Believe me, sister Jingyan! "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "just press the selling document? Do you know that as soon as you press this instrument, you will all become slaves. Whether you die or live depends on your master''s word. Besides, as women, if I suddenly want to buy a group of such young girls, you don''t doubt that I want you to do some obscene and shameful activities? "


    The girl smiled, "Miss, I think you know that although the feather clothes door is poor in property, it is an organization to cultivate dark guards. Our sisters are not first-class, but they have all grown up practicing martial arts since childhood. It''s no problem to deal with seven or eight ordinary local ruffians and hooligans. Miss, if you want to be the place of the wind and dust fence, you must not choose me and these women with martial arts. Besides, with Miss Xianglan and sister Jingyan Zhuyu in front of us, what are we afraid of? " With martial arts, who can force them?


    Zhuo Xi touched her nose and said, "she''s a man with a mind." She looked through the selling documents in her hand and found that one of Qiu Li''s signatures was very well written, and the rest were fingerprints. She asked, "are you Qiu Li? Can you read? "


    She nodded. "The maidservant is Qiu Li. They all call me Xiao Li. I read several books with my father since I was a child. Seven years ago, I was attacked by horse thieves on my way to office with my father. My mother hid me under the belly of a dead horse. So she became an orphan and was taken in by the feather gate. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you know the words and are well organized. All the sisters seem to be convinced of you. How about you take charge of the yard? "


    Xiao Li looked at Jing Yan and hesitated, "this... Sister Jing Yan..." in her opinion, Jing Yan should control them.


    He is also a man with high Eq. knowing that he can''t rob others'' credit and positions at will, Zhuo Xi smiled with satisfaction, "surprised speech is a bigger steward. She doesn''t have time to take care of your little things. Take care of this small yard first. Do you have an opinion? "


    All the other heads shook like a rattle.


    She saw Xiao Jijing come out and stand aside. Knowing that the food was ready, she asked them to take their jobs together and sit around a big round table in a small hall next to her. Zhuo Xi also sat down. Surprised Yan immediately brought her a bowl of hot noodles and said, "Miss, Xiaoji used to cook. Her food is delicious!"


    Zhuo Xi took a sip of the soup, "it really tastes good. You eat too. Don''t just look at me. "


    As soon as he said this, there were all kinds of sounds of sucking noodles.


    "Listen to me while you eat. Xiao Li is in charge of the small yard, and the kitchen is handed over to Xiao Ji. As for the daily purchase, cleaning and washing of the room, everyone should take turns to do the housework. How to divide the work is arranged by Xiao Li. If you discuss other life lock matters yourself, why don''t you ask me. In addition, the application time from midnight to afternoon is the time you work for me. As for the funds, the public has 100 yuan a month to buy all the necessary living goods and food in the yard. As for your personal expenses, you should bear them yourself. Everyone can get 15 yuan a month and three sets of work clothes every quarter. "


    You have food, shelter, new clothes and 15 yuan a month? God, sister Jingyan said that she had never received money when she was a slave to master Yan''s house before, and the cost of master Yan''s concubine was only 50 yuan a year. Can I get her spending for a quarter in a month? Some girls who are quick in thinking have opened their mouths and don''t know if they have dropped their chopsticks. Xiao Li took the lead in responding, put down his chopsticks, walked quickly to Zhuo Xi and knelt down, "thank you, miss!" The other girls choked on the noodles in their mouths and knelt down. Zhuo Xi shouted, "what''s all this?! Get up and eat! "


    In the face of such a high treatment, Xiao Li was uneasy, "I don''t know what Miss needs us to do?" It seems that it must be a profitable business, but I don''t know whether to kill and bleed


    Zhuo Xi looked at her uneasy eyes and knew that she wanted to be crooked, so she began to explain, "of course, I invited you to work for me and make money for me. In our yard, the first two entrances are Xiyan Yangsheng Hall... "She explained her ideas to them in detail. Hearing their blood boiling, they wanted to be trained immediately.


    Zhuo Xi finally said, "in the future, you will face the wives and ladies of dignitaries and noble families. From tomorrow, I will ask mother Wu to come and teach you etiquette for a month. I''ll teach you some medical knowledge in the afternoon. As for word recognition, Xiao Li has to teach them after getting up every morning. I''ll bring some medical books. You can all read by yourself in the future. "


    Surprised speech was very envious and asked carefully, "Miss, can I also learn?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "of course, we should run this beauty preserving hall well in the future. That Feiyu drunken Yuxuan is only the wealth of the royal family. This Xiyan Yangsheng hall is our serious industry. "


    Since then, Zhuo Xi''s action accelerated. It took only three days to teach them the basic knowledge of pharmacology. No matter whether they could absorb it or not, let Xiao Li take notes of these knowledge and let them memorize them. After a simple examination, they were roughly divided into two systems: meridians and pharmacology around qianjinke, so that they can focus on mastering the knowledge of meridians and herbs in gynecological meridians conditioning and beauty care. The main reason is that Zhuo Xi thought that the technical content of the sitting medical hall in the pharmacy was too high to popularize the public in a short time. Therefore, he made basic health-care Decoction and beauty products with the two main lines of health preservation and beauty care, supplemented by active meridian massage, acupuncture, external acupuncture and other physiotherapy methods, in order to open the market as soon as possible. She always believed that no matter which dynasty, the money of the rich is always the best to earn. Earn their money to feed these girls, and there will be more girls who need decent work in the future. This is also a way of redistribution of social wealth, isn''t it?


    Ten days later, the little girls who studied the medical theory of soup medicine can start making finished products of soup medicine under the leadership of Zhuo Xi. Each person is responsible for learning two or three fixed formulas and remembering them very quickly. Learning acupuncture and moxibustion is more complicated, but the basic meridian massage techniques have been mastered in a short time. Others who specialize in learning detoxification and beauty technology are very excited. They hold other companions to do free facial maintenance for them every day. Zhuo Xi let people find some thin cotton cloth, cut the face of adult face and dig the holes of facial features, and use some egg white milk, aloe and fresh cucumber juice to make some whitening lotion. The first time when it was put out to frighten people, it was the evening that the dark night was not black. Zhuo Xi laughed there. Xiao Li took the broom and was about to knock it off. However, she found that her clothes looked very familiar. She couldn''t help but freeze there and trembled and asked, "Miss? Master? "


    She insisted on calling her master like this. The young lady taught them all about pharmacy and their ability to make money. What is not a master?


    Zhuo Xi made a face at them, and then tore off the mask on her face. "I tell you, this is good stuff..."


    Then for an hour, screams came and went in every corner of the yard, and then laughter. Mother Wu, who is waiting for Zhuo Xi to go back to the Wu family courtyard together, is so angry that she scolds that she has learned the rules for nothing these days.

 Chapter 79

    Zhuo Xi was so busy that she forgot the bad things brought to her by the two sisters of the Wu family. On this day, when she returned to the moon setting courtyard, mother Wu handed her a big red invitation.


    "Beauty Wang''s birthday?" Zhuo Xi stared at the words on the post and asked mother Wu suspiciously, "who is this king beauty? Do I recognize it? "


    Mother Wu sighed and was about to answer, but she heard a voice outside the door and said with a smile, "Oh, so the sixth sister also received the invitation? Sure enough, beauty Wang didn''t forget our Wu family. "


    It turned out that Wu Ru came in with Wu Jiao.


    Zhuo Xi looked at them suspiciously, "according to this, this king beauty is our old acquaintance?"


    Wu Ru seemed in a good mood and said with a smile, "it should be said that it''s your old acquaintance."


    Zhuo Xi was too lazy to play charades with her and directly asked mother Wu, "mother Wu, tell me, who is this king beauty?"


    Mother Wu immediately replied, "before beauty Wang enters the palace, her boudoir name is Jiayao."


    "Wang Jialin! It was her! " Zhuo Xi couldn''t help sighing. Last time she saw her in such a mess in the palace, she was in a dead end. She didn''t think about it, but she turned into a beauty. It seems that she is still good at it.


    Wu Ru smiled again, "didn''t you expect? The former rival in love has become a beautiful lady. Think about this scene, but I''m looking forward to it. "


    "Have you also been invited?" Zhuo Xi guessed what they looked like.


    "Exactly. Even you, a common woman, have been invited. How can we not post? "


    "Ha ha, so if I don''t go, won''t I disappoint you too much?" Zhuo Xi said with a sneer that she wanted to see her joke. She never knew how to write a joke!


    Wu Jiao said with a worried face, "six younger sisters, except the queen, the birthdays of the palace life women are generally not handled so wantonly. Wang Meimei''s move may be a bad one. "


    "Don''t worry too much when soldiers come to block you and water and earth cover you. Prepare and dress up well, and prepare to attend Wang Mei''s birthday party the next day. " Zhuo Xi threw the post on the table, turned around and said, "Oh, yes, I have some jewelry and clothes here. The styles in Feiyu Zui Yuxuan are similar. If you don''t dislike it, you can pick some."


    This is the primary purpose of Wu Ru''s coming here. When she heard this, her eyes immediately emitted light. Zhuo Xi smiled faintly and surprised Wu''s mother. She took out her clothes and jewelry for them to pick.


    Wu Ru impolitely took two pearl flowers, a pair of jade bracelets and a set of light yellow gauze skirt. Wu Jiao really liked a pair of exquisite wispy empty earrings, so she asked Zhuo Xi and took them away.


    After they left, they were surprised and said disdainfully, "it''s still a legitimate young lady. Like an inexperienced maid, they want everything."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "she doesn''t have your insight now. It''s estimated that Feiyu drunk Yuxuan hasn''t been there once. " That''s the truth.


    The surprised speech was happy at the smell of the speech, but he was depressed for a moment. "Miss, miss three has taken away your most beautiful clothes, skirts and jewelry. What will you wear then?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "me? I''m not the protagonist. Why do I dress so attractive? " This Wu Ru, I''m afraid it''s not the wine that the drunken man means.


    At this time, mother Wu gathered the food in and asked Zhuo Xi to have dinner.


    Zhuo Xi sat at the dinner table and asked, "mother Wu, what''s the background of Wang Jialin?"


    Mother Wu took a deep breath and said, "Wang''s legitimate daughter ranks second. His father was Wang Dayong, the former big Sikong and now LianBo, and his mother was Jing Ling, the youngest sister of the king. Wang Ji died of illness three years ago, so the second miss of the Wang family has been filial to this day. A few days ago, somehow, the king suddenly ordered to cancel the engagement between the Wang family and the Hou house. Yesterday, I heard that the second miss of the Wang family was canonized as a beauty, and today I sent an invitation. "


    "I heard that the engagement between the Wang family and the Hou house was made by the first king?"


    "Exactly."


    "Can you tell me the situation at that time?"


    "Six years ago, after the death of Xianru, the Marquis was only granted the title of general of the town. Although he held the military power in the south, he always guarded the clothes grave for his mother''s imperial concubine, and his will was depressed. Nominally, he was raised in the name of Mrs. Qing at that time, that is, the Empress Dowager today. Mrs. Qing also took good care of him in those years. She often booed him and sometimes enlightened him. The Marquis is willing to go to Mrs. Qing''s place to greet her from time to time. They get along quite well, just like mother and son. At that time, Prince Tai was also often close to the marquis. They were about brothers who had been married in those years. Until three years ago, when the Marquis reached the age of sixteen and had reached the age of leaving the palace, the former king granted him the Marquis of Guang''an and decided to marry the Wang family. It is said that the marriage with the Wang family was suggested by Mrs. Qing. The Marquis had no opinion, so he went out of the palace and built the Marquis house. After everything was done, he married the second miss of the Wang family. Unexpectedly, as soon as the Marquis made a decision, the Wang family came the news of the death of King Ling Ji Xian. The second miss of the Wang family attached great importance to filial piety and has been filial to this day. It is said that King Lian''s Dayong was a powerful dasikong. After his wife died, he was depressed and insisted on resigning from the post of dasikong. The first emperor was helpless, so he was given the title of LianBo. "


    Zhuo Xi listened without a word, "Wang Jialin ranks second. Is there a legitimate sister on it?"


    Mother Wu nodded, "Miss Wang ziyao married Wang Feng, the general of heyongguan."


    "What other brothers and sisters do you have?"


    "He has a younger brother. He should be thirteen this year. He should still be in school."


    Zhuo Xi ate almost. She took a towel, wiped her mouth, took water and rinsed her mouth. Then she said to mother Wu, "the day after tomorrow is beauty Wang''s birthday. Mother Wu, you prepare some gifts for me."


    Beauty Wang''s birthday will arrive soon. Zhuo Xi dressed up early in the morning under the urging of surprised words. When they came to the main courtyard, Wu Ru and Wu Jiao were well dressed. The light yellow dress Wu Ru was wearing, lined with Topaz bracelets hidden in her arms, and two round beads fell on her ears, which looked elegant, generous, round and lovely. Wu Jiao wore the small water drop Loukong earrings on her side, which made her face more delicate and slender. She wore a lavender gauze skirt, which made her skin as white as jade. Zhuo Xi gave a dark praise and greeted him, "third and fifth sisters, I''ve kept you waiting."


    Wu Ru "hum," isn''t it the head of Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan? How can you dress so shabby? Do you mean to lose the face of our Wu family? "


    Zhuo Xi looks down at her light cyan skirt. It''s the latest simple style of Feiyu zuiyu Xuan. How can it be shabby in her eyes? She smiled, "there are two sisters as beautiful as flowers. How can the Wu family be rude? Today, the two sisters, Zhuyu, are in front of me. My sister won''t join the fun. It''s better to keep a low profile. "


    Hearing the words "join in the fun", Wu Ru didn''t know where she wanted to go. She suddenly blushed and stopped talking.


    But Wu Jiao whispered, "six younger sisters are too modest. In my opinion, six younger sisters are very good."


    Liu came in a hurry. Seeing all three of them, he panted, "the cars and horses are ready. You go before the sun comes up. You don''t have to tan your face. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the wronged warm winter sun and quietly turned her eyes.


    Mother Wu also came and said, "my Lord, the cars and horses are ready. Please... "


    This made Liu''s three faces black. They were going to take a carriage for the three to enter the palace, but they all forgot that Zhuo Xi had her own special carriage.


    Out of the side door, I saw two carriages of different specifications parked quietly by the door.


    Mother Wu took the lead in moving the horse stool and waited for a carriage in front. Surprised Yan jumped up from one side and opened the curtain. There were a few small pots, cups and butterflies, snacks, and thick cushions and pillows. As soon as Zhuo Xi lifted her skirt, she boarded the carriage.


    Wu Ru saw the huge gap between the two carriages at a glance. She looked at the four passenger carriages and bronze carriages in front, with obvious Marquis marks on them. Then she looked at the small and shabby two wooden carriages in the back, and the coachman squatting on the ground as a horse stool. She was so ashamed. She walked forward a few steps reluctantly under Wu Jiao''s push.


    Zhuo Xi looked back at the situation and smiled, "three sisters, five sisters, little sister, this carriage is enough for four people. If you two don''t mind, would you like to ride with your little sister? "


    Liu Shi immediately said with a smile, "it''s so good. You three sisters have a deep love. Since you are outside, you are all the faces of the Wu family. Xiao liu''er, ru''er and jiao''er don''t have much insight. They still need your help in the palace. "


    Ru''er''s face was a little ugly when she heard this. It was as if her legitimate daughter had been stained with the common sister. She couldn''t help slowing down the pace of raising her legs to get on the bus. Wu Jiao pushed her and said softly, "third sister, it''s getting late, but don''t let the noble people in the palace wait for a long time." Wu Ru''s face brightened. Yes, the important thing is later. If you can bear these little things, you can bear them.


    Zhuo Xi said to Liu with a smile, "I believe the third sister and the fifth sister will be measured. If there is anything inappropriate, Xiao Liu will certainly remind the two sisters."


    Liu smiled, "then I''m relieved. Be careful on your way." Then she ordered Wu Ru and Wu Jiao''s maid to take things into a carriage behind and follow.


    Wu Ru and Wu Jiao sat in the big carriage. Seeing that zhuoxi didn''t pay any attention to her first sister, Wu Ru drank tea and couldn''t help humming with her nose. Wu Jiao looked around at the luxurious carriage and exclaimed, "it''s really a good car, sixth sister. The cushion is really comfortable." She picked up the pillow at hand and looked at it. For a while, she held it in her arms and padded it behind her back. How can it be comfortable.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and pushed over a cup of tea just made by Jingyan. "Try this jasmine tea. It can make your mouth smell, so that you won''t be too nervous to speak later."


    Wu Ru snorted coldly again.


    Wu Jiao thanked Zhuo Xi in a regular way. She carefully picked up the small mud cup and took a sip. Sure enough, her mouth was fragrant. She recommended, "third sister, sure enough, this tea has more fragrance. You might as well drink it."


    Wu Ru picked up the small cup, drank it suddenly, scalded it, vomited out, and several drops fell on her light yellow dress. The surprised words on one side couldn''t help laughing. Wu Ru slapped Jing Yan''s face and was stopped by Jing Yan. Wu Ru cried, "you slave, do you want to burn me?! I just give you a little punishment. Do you want to reverse?! You let go of me! "


    Surprised Yan''s sarcastic smile was still frozen on his face, but his eyes looked at Wu Ru angrily, gritted his teeth and said, "if you do something wrong, your master will punish you."


    "Six younger sisters! That''s how you discipline your family! "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what''s your family? My mother just said that we are all one outside. Jing Yan is not my servant. Her slave documents exist in the Hou house. In a word, she is the servant of the Hou house. " I mean, I can''t fight, let alone you?


    "You..." Wu Ru angrily threw down her arm and wiped the splashed place on her dress.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "what''s more, she didn''t do anything wrong. This tea soup is to be soaked and drunk while it is hot. "


    Wu Ru was so angry that she couldn''t say a word. I seem to have no advantage in front of this common sister.


    Wu Jiao hurried to make things right. "The third sister is also in a hurry. Don''t blame the sixth sister. Third sister, why don''t you let the little sister have a look? Is there any water stain? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t bother to look at them. She picked up one side of the dessert and ate it slowly.


    The carriage drove to the palace in the uneven mood of the four people in the car.

 Chapter 80

    Beauty Wang''s birthday banquet was held in a side hall called Zhuifeng palace. When the three of them were brought into the palace by the eunuch, only a few people were whispering. Wu Ru immediately took Wu Jiao to say hello. Zhuo Xi saw that there was no one she knew. She felt very boring, so she sat down on one side. As soon as he sat down, a maid in waiting hurriedly came and bowed and said, "is that Wu Yishi?"


    "It''s my servant."


    Zhuo Xi got up and gave a half gift. The maid in waiting was of good quality. The maid said, "I heard that Wu Yishi is proficient in medicine. My master suddenly has an unbearable abdominal pain. Would you please go and have a look?"


    Zhuo Xi suddenly felt irritable. How did the adjective that she was proficient in medicine spread out? How come someone wants to see her at a new meeting?


    Seeing her hesitation, the maid asked carefully, "is there any difficulty for Wu Yishi?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "in fact, I only know a little about medical skills. I''m afraid I''ll miss your condition. Why don''t you go and see a doctor? "


    The maid smiled, "please don''t worry, Wu Yi. My master said, but there are some questions for you to solve. The imperial doctor has also sent someone to invite you. You can rest assured. "


    Zhuo Xi cheered up. "Who is your master?"


    "Beauty Wang."


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes lit up and immediately stood up and followed the maid in waiting. Her favorite challenge has come.


    Followed the maid of honor to turn several corners to a quiet room. Zhuo Xi was acutely aware that there seemed to be a fragrance in the air. The maid of honor sent her here and retired. Zhuo Xi looked around. After a while, Wang Jialin, dressed in luxurious clothes, sat down at the table in front of her. Her face was calm and could not see joy and anger.


    Zhuo Xi got up and saluted, "I haven''t seen you for a few days, but what''s wrong with my mother?"


    She''s proficient in medicine. "Don''t you put her hand on the table? Come and have a look. "


    Zhuo Xi put her hand on her pulse and looked at her in surprise for a long time.


    Wang Jialin still had no expression on her face, "Wu Yuan, can''t you think of it?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "I really can''t think of it."


    "I can''t imagine that I can turn around with my mother and son in such adversity?"


    It turned out that she was pregnant. Zhuo Xi felt a sigh of relief.


    She stretched out and poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and said calmly, "that day, I was sent to the fifth criminal division in despair, thinking that I would never have a chance to see the sun again. You know, I was thinking, if I could get out of the five criminal divisions, who would I most want to see? "


    Not me? Zhuo Xi pointed to her nose in horror, and her eyes were full of doubts.


    She nodded. "Yes, it''s you. I want to ask you, why on earth did you hurt me like this? I just had a verbal argument with you in Feiyu Zui Yuxuan, and didn''t even get the upper hand. That''s all. Why on earth did you do this? "


    Zhuo Xi asked in surprise, "what are you talking about? I didn''t... "


    "Dare you say you didn''t catch me in the emperor''s bedroom? You didn''t give me the overpowering drug? "


    "No." Zhuo Xi straightened her chest.


    "Hahaha, Wu Yuan, since you dare to do it, why don''t you dare to admit it?"


    "Why admit what I haven''t done?"


    Wang Jialin sneered, "in fact, I know why you did this. Don''t you just want the emperor to take the initiative to dissolve my engagement with the Marquis? Hehe, but do you think you can marry the Marquis even if he has no engagement? "


    Zhuo Xi is full of black lines. It seems to others that the beneficiary of what ah Xin did is her. It seems that she is doomed to the black pot.


    "As a concubine of your little doctor''s family, it''s wishful thinking to marry Hou Ye as imperial concubine yuan!" Wang Jialin was a little sad and angry. "Do you know that I''ve been waiting for him for six years! Six years ago, I fell in love with him when he galloped around the streets of Kyoto. I tried every means to beg my father and mother to enter the palace and ask the former king to marry us. My father refused me at once, and my mother tried to persuade me. My father finally went into the palace on the tenth day of my hunger strike to ask the former king for an order. Do you know, I was only eleven years old at that time. What was it like for an eleven year old girl to starve herself for ten days? But the first king didn''t promise. From then on, I learned to make all kinds of snacks every day and begged my mother to go to the palace every half month to ask Mrs. Qing to give it to him. As Wang Changji, her mother has to lie low in front of Mrs. Qing every half month. At the age of 14, the aristocratic son of the Duke of Lu came to ask his father and mother for marriage. I had put my neck into the five foot white silk. My mother put me down crying. My father and mother went to ask the former king for an order that night. Finally, when he was about to leave the palace, the former king agreed to our marriage. Along with the decree of giving marriage, there is also the will of my father to remove the great Sikong and seal LianBo. My father never asked about politics. This is not enough. A month later, my mother, Wang Changji, Tangtang jingling, died. And I, in order to stay with my beloved, swallowed the Revenge of killing my mother! I think I can get what I want in three years. Unexpectedly, you appeared three years later. You took away his eyes and his feelings. How can you make him treat him so differently? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her sympathetically. She didn''t know what she should say. She said she was sorry? It seems that she never knew such a woman existed and had such a tragic experience. What does this woman''s tragedy have to do with her? Forget it, where is the end of the world? She seems to have lost the right to choose again. Actually, it''s good now? Well, this option seems good. So she said, "in fact, you are very good now. You enjoy wealth and honor."


    "Good?" Her angry eyes shot at Zhuo Xi, "do you know how all this is exchanged?! He was my father. He was once the head of the three princes. He knelt in front of the Wude Hall of the king for three days and three nights. Until he passed out, he got the chance to let the imperial doctor diagnose and treat me. Do you know how I spent my days in the military criminal division? The bitches pricked the invisible places with needles and poured hot wax on my tongue. Those male and female things know that if I use it without fragrance, they deliberately tease my body and see me rubbing on the ground like an estrous insect. I didn''t want to be killed at one end for a moment, but they chained me to the middle of the cell. Only this poor baby. " She touched her stomach with her hand. "It protected me. After the imperial doctor brought out the news of my pregnancy, I seemed to have a little hope. I don''t know what price my father paid to get me out of the Department of martial law and punishment, become the master of the chasing Maple palace, and become a woman in the deep palace that I hated most since I was a child. " She looked at Zhuo Xi with some desperate eyes and said sadly, "in fact, I know you didn''t do it, it''s him, it''s him! Only he can hide me in the king''s palace without knowing the ghost, so that the king can favor me imperceptibly. Only in this way can he get rid of me and dissolve his engagement with me! "


    Zhuo Xi immediately distinguished, "actually not, not him. He would never do such a thing! "


    She looked vaguely at Zhuo Xi, "you don''t have to defend him. I know, in fact, he wouldn''t marry me from the beginning. " She suddenly patted the table, "but why?! Even if he hates me again, he can refuse to marry! You can escape marriage! You can also explain everything to me and cancel the engagement! Why did he kill my mother so cruelly?! That''s his aunt! Over the past three years, I have kept persuading myself that all the pain will pass, and happiness will come after marrying him. But now it''s getting close to marriage, why did he destroy me so cruelly?! Ruined my life?! What did I do wrong? "


    The amount of information in these words was too large. Zhuo Xi couldn''t react. She could only explain powerlessly, "you really misunderstood. He didn''t do it. You say you love him, but you never know him. Although I have known him for only a few months, I know that he will never use such means to escape a marriage. "


    "Ha ha ha." She laughed and tears came down from the corners of her eyes. "If you say no, will I believe it? You''ve only known him for a few months. Why do you know him? "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly became vigilant, "what did you do? What do you want? "


    Wang Jialin stopped laughing and took something out of her sleeve and put it on the table. "I said you know him. Do you know what it means?"


    Zhuo Xi saw the familiar object on the table, and her pupils contracted. "How is this thing in your hand?!"


    Wang Jialin wiped away the tears in her eyes and slowly recovered her calm. "You know, I can forget the Revenge of killing my mother for him. But my father won''t. He is always looking for opportunities to avenge his wife. Over the years, because of my presence, he escaped many assassinations arranged by my father. But now, I don''t want to protect him anymore, and I have no reason to protect him. "


    Zhuo Xi took the familiar jade ring Mosuo, and there was a familiar small gap. He got up one morning and didn''t pay attention to throwing it to the ground. It was really his portable jade pendant. His fingers trembled gently, "where is he now?"


    "Didn''t he go to Liangzhou? Naturally in Liangzhou. "


    Zhuo Xi tightly pursed her lips, "is he still alive?"


    "Cluck, how do you deserve perfection? His father finally avenged him. Ha ha ha. " Beauty Wang smiled brightly. Her greased mouth grinned to her ears and looked at some seeping people, "he''s dead! He died under the forgetful cliff outside Liangzhou city and fell to pieces. Hahaha, forget love cliff. I don''t know if he can still remember you when he was reincarnated. "


    Zhuo Xi looked sympathetically at her sadness that couldn''t hide her laughter, squeezed the jade ring and asked, "do you think I would believe it? With this jade ring? "


    "Why don''t you believe it? The jade ring never left him when I saw him at the age of 11. If something had not happened, how could he have left the jade ring? "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly smiled, "don''t you know that there is a kind of medicine in this world, which is called heart and soul?"


    Beauty Wang was stunned, "what?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "I know a little about medicine. I believe you know it too. Jing Yuan and I are in love with each other. Now that the two places are separated, we make an appointment to serve each other. As the name suggests, this medicine can connect two people. If he has any pain, I can feel it. I don''t feel any discomfort now. Do you think I don''t believe you, or don''t believe you, or don''t believe you? "


    Beauty Wang clenched her teeth. "I don''t believe it."


    Zhuo Xi shrugged. "It doesn''t matter. You never believed me."


    "You''re great!" Beauty Wang stared at her fiercely, "hahaha, believe it or not, I want to tell you that although he is not in our hands and we have not found his body, he is really missing. He fell off the cliff and disappeared. The three princes couldn''t find him, the king''s people couldn''t find him, and his subordinates couldn''t find him! "


    Zhuo Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She just cheated her a little and could actually receive miraculous effects. She pressed down her secret worry and said softly, "I can only tell you that these things are impossible and won''t be done by Jing Yuan. If you want revenge, you must be looking for the wrong person. Such blind revenge can only make relatives hurt and enemies fast. Your mother who died early may not be happy to come under the nine springs. As for your love, it''s just your business and has nothing to do with others. So you called me here to threaten me? Warn me? "


    Beauty Wang''s face became expressionless again, "what a person has nothing to do with others. I called you here to let you see with your own eyes how a man who can''t abandon his shoes can become a palace Princess admired by everyone. If he is not here now, you should take good care of him and see how I get rid of the people he wants to protect step by step. You say you have a soul, but you don''t know. If he knows that you have become a * * slut in Liangzhou, will he be anxious? "


    Zhuo Xi made a frightened expression, "what are you going to do? Can''t it be without fragrance? "


    Beauty Wang smiled strangely, "what if there is no fragrance? You''ll know the answer soon. "

 Chapter 81

    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes, sucked her nose, frowned and looked at her suspiciously, "what are you warning me?"


    Beauty Wang suddenly smiled strangely, "I lied to you. There''s nothing here. I know you have excellent medical skills. If I poison you again, won''t I teach you a lesson? "


    Zhuo Xi picked up the teapot on the table and poured herself a cup of tea. "This sentence is credible, so I believe you. But I have a word, do you dare believe me? "


    Beauty Wang glanced, "I believe in myself. Just tell me what you have to say. "


    "You can''t stay here long."


    "Why?"


    "I''m afraid someone sent the incense burning in this room? Are you not afraid of the wrongdoing of the person who gave this incense? "


    "You mean it''s poisonous?"


    "For others, there is no toxicity. I''m afraid it''s aimed at you." Zhuo Xi shook her head and looked at her stomach.


    "You mean..." beauty Wang subconsciously stroked her stomach.


    Zhuo Xi nodded.


    Beauty Wang got up in a hurry, but she stopped at the moment she opened the door, with a tangled and painful look.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t see her expression, glanced at her figure frozen in front of the door, got up and watered out the incense stove in the middle of the room with a water cup in her hand. There was a curling smoke of incense rising in the stove, sighed, "it''s really so hard for you to ask me for help?"


    Beauty Wang turned around and burst into tears. "Would you like to help me?"


    Zhuo Xi knocked on the table and motioned her to come and sit down. "Although this incense contains musk, it doesn''t work so quickly for a while. If you want to lose your slippery tire, you can''t smoke it for a month."


    Beauty Wang turned back again, wiped away the tears on her face and carefully slowed down her breathing. "You didn''t even touch my pulse. Why are you so sure?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it''s just that you can survive a long half month in the military punishment department and protect the Dragon fetus. Today, you see that your mood is so ups and downs, but there is nothing different in your belly. You know that you have a thick body. If anyone wants to harm your baby, it can''t be done without tiger and wolf medicine."


    Beauty Wang clenched her teeth and suddenly knelt down to her, "please, save my father and my child. I''m already a cheap life. It''s no pity to die. But my old father has paid too much for me. Because of me, he has lost his beloved wife. Over the past three years, he has poured out his worries with wine day by day. He wants to kill the enemy and avenge his wife. He did not know that I prevented him from avenging his mother again and again. While he hated himself deeply, he hoped that I would finally be happy. He suffered from this pain day by day. Although my child was not conceived under my expectation, perhaps no one expected its birth at all, but I can feel its existence these days. No matter who its father is, it''s all my flesh and blood. It hasn''t seen the world yet. Even though I hate you a little, I hope you can help me and protect my father and child. If you need my life, you can take it if I give birth to a child safely. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, helped her up and sat down, "if you take this gift as my thanks to remind you, I will be accepted. But you and I are not enemies. Madam, you have never done anything wrong to me. I have no reason to kill you. "


    She held Zhuo Xi''s hand tightly. "Would you like to help me?"


    Zhuo Xi didn''t nod or shake her head. She just looked at her and asked, "everyone knows that I share the same spirit with the queen. You must also know that the person who is most likely to attack you is the queen. I don''t help her, but I''m going to help you, a man who hates us, deal with her? Where did you get the confidence that I would promise? "


    "This is the first thing I want to tell you. Don''t trust sun Yao too much. Although she seems to be kind to you, it''s just that she wants to rely on you to get money for her. One night when I was in the fifth division of punishment, I heard two women nagging about the fact that the queen kept sending money to the general altar. It sounds like a bottomless pit. Although I don''t know what she is planning, you should cooperate with her and be careful to hide from the tiger. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and slowly sat down in the other seat. "If it''s a bottomless hole, it''s better. The deeper the bottomless hole, the longer she relies on me. It wouldn''t have happened so early. "


    Wang Jialin asked anxiously, "what about the Marquis of Guang''an? For the sake of 28 warning letters I sent to your man in the past three years, it''s also meritorious to protect him. You... "


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "Although you have warnings, the danger comes from your father. At best, you''re just atoning for your father. I believe he knows, so he didn''t lay a hand on your father. Otherwise, you think you can keep your uncle''s house safe for so many years? "


    Wang Jialin suddenly said, "no, the danger does not come from my father alone. Do you remember the Shangyuan Festival? "


    Zhuo Xi narrowed her eyes. "Is this about you?"


    Wang Jialin shook her head. "According to the loyal maid I placed next to my father, before the festival, my father heard that people from the prison gate, the first killer in the northwest, came to Kyoto. My father wanted to pay a lot of money to ask them to do it. Unexpectedly, they were rejected by the other party on the grounds that they had an important task to do. My father speculated that they must have overlapped the target characters, so he couldn''t accept the entrustment, so he was very drunk with joy. When I heard the news, I immediately sent a letter to the marquis. "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment. The Marquis did receive the news that day. Unexpectedly, she sent it, so she said, "in this case, the Marquis of Guang''an really owes you a favor. As a servant of the Marquis of Guang''an, I really have an unshirkable responsibility. But this favor, I can only promise to try my best to protect your baby. But, your father, I''m afraid there''s nothing I can do. " No matter who he is, he doesn''t like people who have been chasing after his ass and waiting for killers.


    Wang Jialin bit her lower lip and knew that this was the greatest support she could win. She stood up and gave another big gift, "so, thank you, girl."


    There are more and more people in the banquet living room. Wu Ru and Wu Jiao chatted with their sisters for a while and found that Zhuo Xi was missing. They couldn''t help wondering. Wu Jiao touched the third sister''s hand. "The third sister and the sixth sister are gone. Are we going to find her?"


    Wu Ru thought of Zhuo Xi''s eyes on her head, so she was a little reluctant, "maybe she''s looking for a clean room. Don''t worry about her! Besides, she has an official position. What can happen to her? "


    Wu Jiao stood on tiptoe and looked at the door again and again. After a while, she saw a familiar palace maid. It seemed that she was chatting with Zhuo Xi. She hurriedly ran over and asked, "sister, do you see my six younger sisters, er, Wu Yishi?"


    The maid in waiting shook her head flustered and ran away quickly. Wu Jiao looked suspiciously at the background of her departure. Suddenly, a voice whispered in her ear, "is Wu Yishi here? Where is she? "


    Wu Jiao turned around and saw that she was a little girl with bright eyes and bright teeth. At first glance, her dress was at the level of county Ji. She quickly gave a gift and replied, "if you go back to miss Hui, six younger sisters came with us. They have been here for a while. I don''t know why I can''t find her now."


    The girl looked cold. "When did you find her missing? Who was she talking to before? "


    Wu Jiao hesitated and said, "I just found out she''s gone. It seemed that she was talking to the maid in waiting, but why did she shake her head? Am I wrong? "


    "You call her six younger sisters. Are you..." the girl remembered this detail.


    Wu Jiao nodded, "the little girl is his fifth sister, surnamed Wu Mingjiao. The one in yellow over there is our third sister, Wu Ru. I dare ask you... "


    The girl nodded. "It''s Wu Yishi''s third and fifth sisters. I''m Luo Yuan."


    Wu Jiao was surprised and gave her a deep gift, "it''s Luo Junji. The little girl is polite."


    Wu Ru was talking happily with others. Seeing Wu Jiao''s action, she couldn''t help looking over. She heard that it was Jun Ji coming. The direct miss of a Chinese doctor''s family next to her also hurried over, "I''ve seen Luo Jun Ji." Everyone knows that the king gets along very well with Wang Changji, and he dotes on Luo Junji. Sometimes he dotes even more than his own Wang Changji.


    Wu Ru also hurried over and saluted.


    Luo Yuan said quietly, "flat."


    The crowd got up and was about to come forward to chat up, when they heard a "beauty Wang!"


    I saw a beautiful lotus step moving gently in an orange embroidered Jinhua dress. The people saw that her long skirt was a rare Luo yunsha in the world. The yarn was finely embroidered with large blooming peonies with gold thread, which was extremely luxurious. There were not too many hairpin rings on his head. He only tied his hair loosely with a jade rope. There were two blood ruby pendants in his ears. His face was white. On his lips was the most luxurious red cherry makeup. A mother of Pearl was on his forehead, his long eyelashes were lifted, and his beautiful eyes looked around. Everyone felt that they had lost their color.


    The palace man shouted, "Bye -"


    Everyone bent down conditionally and saluted her, "Wang Meian -"


    This is the standard court etiquette. Beauty Wang glanced at Zhuo Xi with her head down behind her and raised her right hand gently.


    "Get up -" with the sharp voice of the palace man, everyone got up.


    Zhuo Xi admired her emotional control ability very much. One moment she roared at herself excitedly, and the next moment she could calmly and freely ask the maid in charge to make up for her, and accept everyone to kneel down.


    Beauty Wang went to the middle of the main seat and sat down. She looked at Zhuo Xi. She saw that Zhuo Xi gently shook her head and put down most of her heart.


    "On my little birthday, I also worked. Ladies and ladies came to congratulate me. I thank you here."


    "You''re welcome, madam. I don''t know how honored I am to be invited." A middle-aged beautiful woman said with a smile, which immediately aroused a burst of agreement at the bottom. She stepped forward and presented the gift box in her hand. "I heard that my mother is pregnant, and now she presents a son Guanyin. I wish my mother a happy Dragon."


    "Silver beads." Beauty Wang nodded to the maid in waiting beside her.


    The silver bead came forward to receive the gift and opened it. Inside, a jade statue of Guanyin was crystal clear. Beauty Wang praised her, and everyone agreed. All kinds of praise poured out one after another. So a wave of gift giving began. The ladies presented all kinds of gifts, including rare treasures, books, calligraphy and paintings, and precious tonics. However, with Zhuo Xi''s previous reminder, she was very cautious when she saw the import of these nourishing herbs. She even hurried to collect the silver beads without looking at them.


    Wu Jiao had time to find Zhuo Xi''s figure at this time. She was about to come forward to talk, but she saw Luo Yuan on the side catch up and take her hand in an intimate way, "sister, where have you just been? It''s hard to find a kite. "


    Zhuo Xi patted her hand and whispered to her.

 Chapter 82

    When all the gifts were sent, everyone looked at Zhuo Xi. This Wu Yishi sent out strange things at the hundred day banquet of the seven princes, which has been widely spread in the Xun GUI circle. Many of the people who came here this time were not qualified to attend the hundred day banquet of the seven princes. They had no chance to see them. They already felt very sorry. After a private conversation, he learned that this person was Zhuo Xi, so he stared at her brightly. Especially at this very moment when you can show your position and family background.


    Zhuo Xi was also simple and calmly sent a brocade box. Silver Pearl took the brocade box and opened it. She found that no one in the audience knew it. Zhuo Xi tightened the spring on the base in the puzzled eyes of the people. When she loosened her hand, the music box made a jingling sound. A boy on the box rode on a horse about to rise in the air and turned slowly with the music. She drew a sketch of the box. The iron craftsmen in Hou''s house carefully made various parts with the pig iron sent by Ma San, including the cylindrical iron cylinder filled with spikes and the iron ring gear spring. Kou Anli made the wooden box shell and the model on it. Zhuo Xi was assembled and modified several times, and it turned out to be a wooden box. The light and crisp voice surprised the whole audience.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said to Wang Meimei, "madam, this thing has a soft voice, which can not only calm the mind and comfort, but also be used for prenatal education."


    "What is prenatal education?" Asked beauty Wang.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "prenatal education means that when a woman is pregnant, she uses external voices to teach the fetus. Although the baby is small in the mother''s body, its auditory nerve has developed and can sense the external sound. If you edify it with beautiful and soft music at this time, it can have a very positive impact on it. "


    The crowd was stunned. Luo Yuan even shouted that she wanted the same box. It''s not just Luo Yuan. Which young girl here doesn''t like this strange thing? Wu Ru and Wu Jiao were even more surprised. They didn''t expect their six younger sisters to be so popular. They were not ordinary when they made a move.


    Hearing Luo Yuan''s words, Zhuo Xi joked, "your music enlightenment is too early. It''s not a three-year-old child. What do you want this thing to do?"


    "Huan''er in this palace is a child with a yellow mouth. If he starts edifying at this time, it''s not too late?" A voice suddenly sounded from the door.


    Everyone was surprised. The queen sun Yao didn''t know when to stand outside the hall. Everyone bent over and saluted, "meet the queen. The Queen''s mother, Jin''an. "


    Wang Meimei smiled brightly, "how can a cheap concubine work on her birthday?"


    Sun Yao said, "I know you are polite, so I sent invitations to all the concubines in the back palace." This was a slap in the face. She sent posts to all the concubines, but no one came. She didn''t wait for the public to respond, and then said, "but fortunately, the palace came, otherwise wouldn''t she miss such an interesting thing?"


    She turned to Zhuo Xi again. "You haven''t answered the question just now."


    Zhuo Xi got up and said with a smile, "children can have music enlightenment before they are six years old. The seven princes are less than four months old. Naturally, it''s not too late. Later, the little girl ordered someone to make another music box and present it to her mother. I hope she won''t dislike it. "


    Sun Yao looked at the object in her hand carefully and said in surprise, "is it called a music box? It really deserves its name. " At this time, the music box had stopped making noise. She then asked, "how to make it sound?" Zhuo Xi showed her the action of winding up. Sun Yao twisted it with her hand. Sure enough, the music started, but soon stopped. Zhuo Xi said without waiting for his question, "we should screw the spring to the end." Sun Yao turned a few more times, turned to the bottom and then let go. The music really rang for a while.


    Sun Yao played for a while and lovingly returned it to Wang Jialin. "You are a blessed child. You can hear such wonderful music in your womb. You must be a kind-hearted and world-wide lucky star in the future."


    Wang Jialin took it over and said with a smile, "isn''t it? It''s all thanks to my mother. Otherwise, how can I get to know this resourceful Wu Yishi? Last time I saw Wu Yishi''s extraordinary refinement at the hundred day banquet of the seven princes. To tell you the truth, my concubine came to ask Wu Yishi for gifts on this birthday. "


    Hahaha, everyone laughed.


    Sun Yao told Su Mei, "go and invite all the ladies of the palaces. Today is the birthday of the new beauty Wang. The nobles of the palaces haven''t recognized it yet. They happen to be lively together."


    Su Meifu has gone.


    Soon all the ladies and beauties of the palaces arrived. Due to the temporary addition of many dignitaries, the meals and seats needed to be rearranged.


    It was Zhuo Xi who knew that Wang Jialin''s beauty seal was not easy. In Luo Yuan''s explanation, she learned that the imperial concubines of the imperial palace of the Wuliang state were divided into seven levels, namely, the queen, the great imperial concubine, the wife, the beauty, the beloved, the long envoy and the little envoy. At that time, there were only a number of wives, the second beauty, the third beauty, the beloved and the long envoy under the queen sun Yao. The king had been a crown prince for nearly 40 years before he ascended the throne, and there were many beautiful women who were already young couples with him. Therefore, according to outsiders, with Wang Jialin''s qualifications, she became a beauty only by having a dragon son, and even ranked in the top six in the whole harem. It can be seen that the king loved her very much. Only Zhuo Xi knows that such love is heavy. I don''t know what price Wang LianBo paid for it. She still clearly remembers the hatred in the king''s eyes when he mentioned Wang Jialin on the fifth day of the first month. Even though his children were thin, his four sons died early, and only three sons and five daughters were left under his knees, Zhuo Xi''s deeds of eradicating all 17 brothers except Jing Yuan from his long crown prince career show that he doesn''t care how many sons he has, as long as one can inherit the throne according to his wishes. Therefore, only the king himself knows how much the child in Wang Jialin''s belly is.


    At the moment, all the imperial concubines have sat down under Wang Yao in order. The ladies and ladies present were secretly glad that they had come right. It seems that the queen doesn''t reject the new beauty Wang very much. She may even be wooing her. Otherwise, she won''t invite dignitaries from the whole palace to celebrate her birthday.


    From the attendance this time, it can be clearly seen that the line-up camp of Mrs. Xun GUI''s circle in Kyoto. Although Wang Meimei''s post was sprinkled on Xun GUI in Kyoto for the first time, those who had a close relationship with the queen showed strong contempt for it. They thought that Wang dasikong''s second daughter-in-law had an engagement and went to the palace to hook up with the king during her filial piety. This behavior was a shame for women, Therefore, only people were ordered to give gifts and no one was present. Others who had a close relationship with the king smelled the king''s love for him from the title of "beauty". Thinking carefully, they asked the little girl to come and explore the way first, so they wouldn''t show up. Luo Yuan is such a spy. Wang Changji was afraid that she would not be able to get along well with the king and beauty in the future, and it didn''t matter to offend the queen. However, if she was blown by the pillow man of the king, the consequences would be quite serious, so she asked Luo Yuan to come and have a look. Others standing behind other dignitaries, Xun GUI, are naturally willing to come in and have a look. By the way, they show their loyalty. Is the enemy of the enemy a friend? Finally, the rest is Xun GUI''s peripheral circle. There is no relationship on either side. It''s just a few families who regard entering the palace for dinner as honor. Obviously, the Wu family belongs to this group. However, after talking with beauty Wang, Zhuo Xi was very sure that she was invited into the palace as a prey. It was really difficult for her to hold such a grand party.


    Zhuo Xi was very confused about her identity at the beginning. She didn''t know whether she would attend the banquet as Miss Wu jialiu or as a waiter of the Hou family. However, after listening to Luo Yuan''s statement that there were no other female officials here, she decided to sit with Wu Ru and Wu Jiao. Luo Yuan forced her to sit beside her.


    This scene reminded Wang Jialin of the night of the palace banquet on New Year''s Eve. She was in a very bad mood because of her own experience after that day. However, seeing that the queen had mastered the leadership of the banquet with a smile on her face, she had to bury her dark hatred in her heart. She didn''t know that the queen hated her. She sent the package of incense named dark purple. She just didn''t know what she wanted to do by inviting all the palace concubines to support her appearance tonight.


    Seeing everyone sitting down, she remembered that today''s protagonist was her, so Yingying stood up and became the first toaster, "queen, mother, concubine''s little birthday, unexpectedly, so many noble people miss her. When my concubine first entered the harem, she still didn''t understand many rules. Please teach her more. I''d like to toast the queen first and express my gratitude. " She drank first, and the queen smiled and covered her sleeves.


    Wang Jialin then said, "the second cup is to my sister in each palace. My concubine thanked her sister for moving and did it first." Then she drank another cup, "the last cup, today is my birthday. I thank you for your car and horse Lawton with this wine." Looking up, there was another cup. They had to pick up the wine cup and take a sip.


    Sun Yao said at this time, "since the birthday man has spoken, let''s open our bellies and eat."


    For a while, there was a lot of wine and gossip. At this time, the Queen''s seat is tantamount to admitting the beauty of the king. No one dares to chew her tongue.


    Luo Yuan ate and fell pale on the case, covering her stomach and shouting pain. Zhuo Xi was chewing wax with the food on the case. She was listening to the gossip of the woman next door about a lady''s infertility, which made her concubine take the lead. She turned around and asked her, "what''s the matter? What''s wrong with it? "


    Luo Xi hesitated and did not speak, but covered her stomach, and two red flowers flew on her pale face. Zhuo Xi thought a little and understood, "you''re here?"


    Luo Yuan nodded shyly, still powerless on the case. Zhuo Xi looked at the food she ate. It was full of cold things. She scolded in a low voice, "how can you eat such cold things!" Beckoned a maid in waiting and asked her to cook a bowl of brown sugar ginger water. The woman on one side asked strangely, "it''s normal for women to have abdominal pain during the period of sunflower water. Why use brown sugar ginger water?" The hall is full of women, and there is no taboo on this topic.


    Zhuo Xi''s spirit immediately cheered up and knew that the opportunity to advertise came. Tun replied, "generally speaking, women''s menstrual abdominal pain is caused by palace cold. Drinking more brown sugar ginger water can alleviate it slightly. As the saying goes, ten women have nine colds. Although colds are common, don''t underestimate this palace colds. The light ones suffer from abdominal pain every month, and the heavy ones are infertile for life. If this disease is found, it is necessary to treat it as soon as possible. "


    As soon as the woman heard that infertility could also be treated, she immediately opened her mouth and asked, "how should it be treated?"


    "It is said in the internal classic that cold in Tibet produces full disease, and its treatment should be roasted. It can be used to warm and dredge meridians, support Yang and correct, expel cold evil, promote qi and blood circulation, eliminate blood stasis and disperse knot, replenish middle and replenish qi. Of course, Gong Han also has different degrees. The specific needs to be broken according to people. The little girl dare not say anything. " Zhuo Xi said, gradually increasing the volume.

 Chapter 83

    At this time, the maid of honor had brought a small bowl to Luo Yuan. She drank it without thinking.


    The woman continued to ask, "I have a niece who has been married for five years and has not been pregnant. I''ve heard that Wu Yi''s medical skills are superb. Where is your family now? Would you like to see this woman? "


    Zhuo Xi was about to answer, but when she saw Luo Yuan sitting up straight, she couldn''t help asking, "do you feel better?"


    Luo Yuan straightened up and touched it. He immediately smiled and said, "sister, this method is really effective. I''m much better."


    The woman''s eyes were straight and stared at Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi smiled bitterly, "madam is serious. In fact, the little woman''s medical skills are not exquisite, but she knows a little about pharmacology." Then she raised her voice slightly, "but there is a beauty preserving hall in sanxiangfang, which has a profound research on various problems of qianjinke. There are not only old Chinese doctors with superb medical skills sitting in the hall, but also wonderful ways to make women delay aging and maintain youth for a long time, which can not only preserve health but also beauty. "


    "Is that true? Then I''ll see it when I have a chance. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "this pity Yan Yangsheng hall will open next month. At that time, I''d like to invite your ladies to enjoy it."


    The crowd suddenly realized that it was the strange woman who made trouble again. They just didn''t know what the concept of health preservation and beauty was. They were silent and speechless.


    Luo Yuan suddenly laughed, "sister, what business are you going to do to rob money?"


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "health preservation and beauty, this is a matter of self-interest, but it''s not so simple as business. You think, we women have been taught since childhood that women''s lack of talent is virtue. What is the most learned from childhood to adulthood? Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or women''s morality? Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can certainly add interest to women''s life, and women''s morality can also achieve a woman''s good name. But we all know that what ultimately determines a woman''s lifelong happiness is her natural beauty and the happiness of having children. Appearance is born, and luck is determined. On the surface, these two seem to be the material basis we can''t do anything about, but in fact, through appropriate medical conditioning and external physiotherapy, the appearance can become beautiful, the aging can be delayed, and the women''s abdominal palace environment can also be improved, so as to make infertile people pregnant, or strengthen their body and prolong their life. These are the two core services of Xiyan Yangsheng Hall: helping women beautify and improve microcirculation in order to achieve the purpose of health preservation. "


    A girl''s voice giggled, "it''s a great fallacy in the world. If a woman wants to become beautiful, she can only apply fat foam powder. I have never heard that someone can become beautiful by taking medicine. If so, I''ll have a try! "


    Luo Yuan said with a smile, "cousin Lin Zheng, don''t use this little method. We all know that you have a partial heat constitution, and there are pimples on your face. This can naturally be recuperated by taking medicine. "


    Lin Zheng came over and sat down in front of her two people''s case. He put his face on the case and said with a smile, "Wu Yishi, Doctor Wu, you can always diagnose me. Can I become beautiful by taking medicine?"


    Zhuo Xi looked carefully. There were dozens of prominent small pimples under the thick white powder on her face, and she didn''t take a pulse. She let her tongue out and looked. She smiled, "your tongue is fat and vain, and acne is numerous. You are typical of damp heat. Believe me, when you arrive at Xiyan Yangsheng hall, three patches of medicine will make the acne on your face go away, and as long as you take medicine on time, it will never recur."


    Lin Zheng laughed heartily and took out the jade pendant around his waist. "Today, you are my witness. Since I was 12 years old, Lin Zheng has seen countless miracle doctors treat pimples on my face. They have always disappeared and disappeared. Now it has been five years. According to Wu Yishi''s words, three patches of medicine can cure me. This jade pendant is yours! "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the jade pendant carefully, didn''t reach out to get it, smiled, "since it''s a bet, I can''t help asking for a share. I''ll bet on this jade bracelet in my hand. How about it? " She nodded when she saw Lin Zheng and said, "it''s better to hand over these two bets to an intermediary for safekeeping. It''s not too late to take them away when the outcome is known in the future."


    Luo Yuan volunteered, "I''ll keep it. How about it?" Without waiting for their consent, she picked up the two things one by one. Lin Zheng''s expression was stiff and was about to stop, but he saw Luo Yuan "ouch" and threw the jade pendant on the table.


    Zhuo Xi saw that an inch long thin red linear worm was adsorbed in her palm. She was about to dial the worm''s body with her hand. Zhuo Xi raised her hand to stop her. In addition, she called the palace maid to take a fire fold and light it on the bug''s ass. sure enough, she saw that the bug''s head retreated from Luo Yuan''s palm and fell to the ground. Zhuo Xi didn''t take it lightly. After carefully looking at Luo Yuan''s wound, her face changed greatly. She took out a small bottle from her pocket, poured a pill in her hand, looked at Luo Yuan and asked, "Jun Ji, you and I don''t know each other deeply. If you believe me, take this medicine. I won''t hide it from you. I don''t know where the insect came from, but your palm has begun to turn black. It must be poisonous. Although this medicine can''t detoxify a hundred poisons, it also has an effect on ordinary toxins. "


    Before Luo Yuan spoke, Lin Zheng said, "Wu Yishi is really powerful. He can take out the antidote casually. However, Luoyuan County Ji is a golden body. How can she take your unknown object at will? In case of any good or bad, can you afford it? "


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "to be responsible, I want to ask, if you hadn''t hidden the poison in the jade beads on the jade pendant, how could Jun Ji be poisoned?"


    As soon as this remark was made, everyone was in an uproar.


    Seeing the lively discussion here, beauty Wang complained to the queen, so she came over to see what had happened. As soon as she got close, she listened to Zhuo Xi''s words. She couldn''t help getting angry and shouted, "Miss Lin, what do you want to bring this poison into the palace?"


    With this drink, the whole audience immediately quieted down. The queen finally turned her eyes, got up and asked coldly, "what happened?"


    Beauty Wang quickly turned back and replied, "tell the queen that Luo Junji was poisoned and asked her to send someone to the imperial doctor."


    Sun Yao nodded to Su Mei, who answered.


    Lin Zheng immediately got up and knelt to the center, kowtowed to sun Yao three times, "go back to the Queen''s mother, Luo Junji was injured by poison for some reason, and Wu Yishi slandered that it was the little girl."


    Luo Yuan was also trembling with anger at this time. He grabbed the pill in Zhuo Xi''s hand and swallowed it. Regardless of dizziness, he also stood up and knelt to the center, "how dare you accuse the villain first? I was a good man in vain and wanted to keep the bet for you two. Unexpectedly, you hid the poison in the jade pendant! As soon as I grabbed the jade pendant with my left hand, I felt a stabbing pain in the palm of my hand. Did you say it wasn''t your poisonous hand? "


    Lin Zheng shouted, "this jade pendant is an ordinary pearl pendant. How can you hide a poison?"


    The queen left the table, went to them, looked at them for a long time, and asked, "did someone just witness this?"


    Other imperial concubines slowly gathered together. No one dared to answer for a moment. Zhuo Xi sneered, got up and replied, "the little girl can testify that Luo Xiaojun Ji was bitten by poison when holding the jade pendant."


    Lin Zheng immediately replied, "Luo Xiaojun Ji, you had a jade pendant and a jade bracelet. How did you know that the poison didn''t come out of the jade bracelet? This jade bracelet is the object of Wu Yishi. If she didn''t have a plot, why can she take out the antidote immediately? Is this too coincidental? "


    Sun Yao stared at Zhuo Xi, "how do you explain?"


    Beauty Wang was about to come forward and speak. Zhuo Xi stopped her with her eyes. Zhuo Xi smiled, "it''s not difficult to prove where this insect comes from."


    Everyone gathered around. Zhuo Xi circled an open space with her hand and motioned Lin Zheng and Luo Yuan to come forward together.


    "Look, Queen. This is the poison that just bit Luo Yuan." She pointed to a red mollusk still crawling on the ground. It was burned by a fire fold, but it was still struggling and did not die.


    Beauty Wang exclaimed, "isn''t this a red thread?"


    Mrs. Qin finally found her chance to speak. She covered her mouth and said with a smile, "this is a rare poison. It is said that as long as she touches the skin and meat, she can drill into it. If you forcibly pull it out by hand, the part that enters the flesh will still remain in the body and continue to drill in, all the way to the human heart and keep sucking blood. And its mouth and teeth are also highly toxic. If the bitten person doesn''t have an antidote in one day, he will die. " She had a banquet all night, but she didn''t see the impact of the queen and beauty Wang. She was in infinite regret. Suddenly something went wrong, how could she not join in the fun?


    All the people on one side sighed that someone had brought such poison into the palace.


    The queen said coldly, "Wu Yishi, you say you can prove where this thing comes from?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, pointed to two objects on the table and asked, "Miss Lin, this jade pendant is the one you took out as a bet, right?" Lin Zheng nodded, "exactly."


    She asked Luo Yuan again, "the other jade bracelet is mine. This jade bracelet is inlaid with hollowed out gold patterns. It is indeed possible to hide this thread of red. Luo Junji, you just took these two objects, didn''t you? "


    Luo Yuan also nodded.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "that is to say, these two objects may be the original shelter of this poison."


    She took out a handkerchief, carefully held the jade pendant and jade bracelet with her two fingers and put them next to the red line. She said, "all animals, large or small, can know where they used to live. They will mark their territory with all kinds of excrement so that they can return to their former safe place. I believe this red line must also be familiar with the place where they used to live. " That thread of red is struggling on the ground. As soon as you smell the familiar smell in the jade pendant, you have to nest back to your old nest. This is falling leaves and returning to your roots.


    Zhuo Xi watched a thread of red slowly creep into the small bead in the center of the jade pendant. Finally, she struggled to retract her injured tail and sighed, "it knows it won''t be long. It''s home."


    Luo Yuan stared at Lin Zheng with her eyes wide open. "I''ve called your cousin for so many years. You''ve hurt me with such poison. What''s your heart?"

 Chapter 84

    Lin Zheng turned pale and looked eagerly at the queen.


    Zhuo Xi saw some doorways and whispered to comfort Luo Yuan, "Luo Xiaojun Ji, you are implicated by me."


    Luo Yuan covered her lips and exclaimed. Next to her, there were several ladies who knew the pulse clearly and discussed it in a low voice.


    Beauty Wang said angrily, "Madam queen, today is my little birthday. I didn''t mean to disturb my sisters. Unexpectedly, there was such an adverse event, which almost harmed Luo Xiaojun Ji. Please investigate this matter thoroughly. Otherwise, how can I explain it to Wang Changji in the future? "


    Sun Yao had to ask in a slow voice, "Miss Lin Zheng, don''t you come quickly?!"


    Lin Zheng clenched her lower lip and remained silent.


    At this time, the doctor came and they let him in. The imperial doctor saluted the queen and the ladies and gave Luo Yuan a pulse, "it seems that Luo Xiaojun Ji was poisoned before. Fortunately, she took the medicine in time, and a lot of the toxin was removed. What poison did Luo Xiaojun Ji get? "


    "A red thread." Wang Meimei answered.


    The doctor''s face changed greatly, "a red line? It''s highly poisonous. The poisoned person can be unconscious with a stick of incense. Dare you ask, who gave her the antidote? "


    Zhuo Xi slightly saluted and said, "the little girl is not talented. She happens to have an antidote with her."


    The imperial doctor replied, "can you let me see it?"


    Zhuo Xi took out the bottle, shook it and said regretfully, "sorry, this medicine is the last one. There''s no more."


    The queen said, "in that case, Doctor Wu, go down and prescribe a prescription. You should always remove all the remaining poisons before the palace can rest assured."


    "Promise." Doctor Wu went out in response.


    The queen called Su Mei again, "help Luo Xiaojun Ji to Bai''an Palace first and have a rest."


    She said to Luo Yuan in a soft voice, "Luo Xiaojun Ji, please stay in the palace for a moment. After the doctor Wu has prepared the medicine and confirmed that you are safe, how about going back to Wang Changji''s house? Wang Changji''s side, the palace will send someone to explain to her. "


    Luo Yuan glanced at Zhuo Xi and nodded.


    "Come on, take Lin Zheng back to the Department of criminal justice and wait for him to come down."


    Lin Zheng was horrified at the speech and hurriedly shouted, "queen, spare your life! You are not... "Before she finished, she was dragged away with her mouth closed.


    To all the people in the hall, "well, are you full now? That''s it. Let''s go. "


    If the people were granted amnesty, they immediately dispersed.


    Sun Yao took a deep look at Zhuo Xi and walked slowly.


    Zhuo Xi turned to leave. Seeing Wang Jialin''s reluctant eyes, she knew she wanted to stay. But it''s impossible not to go back. She said, "I''m afraid I went the wrong way and bumped into a noble man when I came here to chase Feng palace for the first time. I don''t know if my mother can let someone lead the way for my daughter?" After that, she saluted and put the porcelain vase into her hand at the moment when beauty Wang stretched out her hand to help.


    Wang Meimei immediately understood and called the close maid Ruoxue to send Zhuo Xi out.


    When Zhuo Xi walked out of the Palace door, she looked at the sky and said to herself, "I wonder if the Empress Dowager has finished her previous flower tea. Unfortunately, it''s so late today. It seems that I have to go to the Empress Dowager to say hello next time. I don''t know if she is healthy recently. "


    Ruoshue heard the speech immediately and answered softly, "mother Hua said that the Empress Dowager has always had a headache recently. She hasn''t seen anyone for several days." It seems that beauty Wang went to ask Ann several times and couldn''t see her.


    Zhuo Xi glanced at the two sisters of the Wu family who followed him. She was satisfied with Ruoxue''s clever answer and nodded. "Now it''s spring, but the spring is cold and chilly. The chill still seeps into the bone marrow. The Empress Dowager is old and slightly cold. It''s normal to have a hot head. Eat and drink more carefully on weekdays. If you recuperate well, you will always be comfortable. "


    "That''s right. There are some elaborate kitchens in the palace, although some are too big for the empress. "


    Zhuo Xi takes a look at Ruoxue. Does it mean that there is no small kitchen in Zhufeng palace¡° Or each palace has its own method. I heard that the Empress Dowager devotes herself to Buddha worship. I heard that people who worship Buddha can''t touch meat. Maybe that''s why she opened a small kitchen. "


    Ruoshue said gratefully, "Wu Yishi reminded us very well. If our mother has anything to honor the Empress Dowager and his old people in the future, don''t collide."


    Zhuo Xi said again, "it''s good to worship Buddha. If you have any wish and sincerely ask for more from Bodhisattva ancestors, you can always realize it one day. "


    A thunder rumbled in the distance. Several people looked up at the dark clouds in the distance. Ruoshue sighed, "it looks like it''s going to rain again."


    Zhuo Xi smiled faintly and looked back, "it''s cold and overcast. It''s better for her sisters to rely on each other and be warmer."


    With these words, they came to the side of the carriage.


    Surprised Yan feizhao couldn''t enter the palace. He saw that all the ladies and ladies in other houses came out. Only his own young lady didn''t come out. He was waiting anxiously beside the carriage. As soon as he saw Zhuo Xi coming out, he immediately greeted him, "Miss, are you all right?" Zhuo Xi looked at Wu Ru and Wu Jiao, who were pale behind, shook her head, and then introduced, "surprised, this is Ruoxue, the maid beside beauty Wang. Give her the bag of medlar chrysanthemum tea in the car. "


    The surprised words were not clear, but he seriously saluted her. Ruoshue also saluted her very politely. Startled, he climbed into the carriage and found the bag of tea. He held it to Ruoxue with both hands.


    Zhuo Xi nodded to ruoshue, "thank you, girl." Then he boarded the carriage.


    If Xuefu is blessed, she takes the flower tea and turns back to the palace.


    Ruoshue returns to Zhuifeng palace and sees beauty Wang. She tells beauty Wang of her conversation with Zhuo Xi. Beauty Wang smacked carefully, and a happy look slowly appeared on her face. "Come on, you''re going to do three things for me now!"


    On the way back, Wu Jiao tightly hugged Wu Ru''s arm and trembled all over. She looked at Zhuo Xi, who was drinking tea, and couldn''t help asking, "six younger sisters, are you okay? It''s too dangerous today. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her and smiled, "it''s all right." What can I do for you? It was just a warning from the queen. Wang Jialin summoned her on her front foot, and someone on her back foot gave her poison. This chasing Maple palace is really leaking on all sides. She thought about it and said, "that''s how the palace eats people and doesn''t spit bones. Today is just a small Palace Banquet, which makes people walk in front of the gate of hell. If daily life is like this... Do you still want to enter the palace? "


    Hearing this, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Zhuo Xi, "six younger sisters, I don''t want to enter the palace. You have a way, don''t you?"


    Wu Ru turned and slapped her hard, "waste! If it had not been for these setbacks and pain, where would it have come from? "


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "this is also a big truth. There is no free lunch, and no one can casually succeed. At present, there is still one month to go before the March palace. You think it over. I can''t help you when you enter the palace, but I have a lot of ways to make you lose the election. "


    Wu Jiao''s eyes were bright and excited. She looked at Wu Ru with an angry face and had to keep silent.


    The carriage was walking on the not too wide street. There was a faint call from the vendor "it''s raining, come back quickly", and a thunder rumbled in the distance. Then the rain crackled on the hood of the carriage. Zhuo Xi closed her eyes tired and ignored the others.


    For a moment, Zhuo Xi heard the coachman''s "driving", followed by the horse''s violent "hissing - EH -" sound, and then felt that the carriage stopped suddenly. Everyone in the car shook a few times with inertia. The coachman whispered, "Sir, there seems to be a pregnant woman ahead."


    Surprised Yan opened the curtain first. Zhuo Xi looked forward and saw a pregnant woman with a big belly lying in the middle of the road. The heavy rain splashed on her. All her clothes were wet and tightly attached to her. A pool of blood on the ground was slowly spreading along the rain.


    Zhuo Xi immediately got up and got out of the carriage. Startled, he quickly picked up the umbrella under the seat and supported it on Zhuo Xi''s head.


    She stepped forward to the pregnant woman and put her hand on the main artery in her neck. There was still a faint breath.


    "Jing Yan, carry her to the carriage for me." Then she took the umbrella in Jing Yan''s hand.


    Surprised to say yes, he bent over and picked up the pregnant woman.


    Unexpectedly, a voice came from afar, "wait a minute...".


    Zhuo Xi followed her reputation, and a gray figure galloped in the heavy rain with a burden in his hand.


    Zhuo Xi ignored him and ordered Jingyan to carry the pregnant woman into the carriage.


    The man ran to him panting and said, "this girl, she, she, you, where are you going to take her?"


    Zhuo Xi saw that Jingyan had gone in to settle the pregnant woman, so she boarded the carriage and shouted "shut up!" to the screaming Wu Ru, Then he ordered the coachman to go to the hospital immediately, and then turned to the man in gray, "do you come up to talk or stay here?"


    The man looked at the baggage in his hand. Without hesitation, he climbed into the carriage and sat next to the coachman.


    Zhuo Xi put down the curtain and asked, "do you know this pregnant woman?"


    "No, no, I just passed by," he said, taking a few more breaths. "I just passed by here, and she was almost unconscious. I''ve seen her pulse. The amniotic fluid is broken and the fetus is ectopic. I''m afraid it''s impossible to save the immortal Luo. "


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at his back outside the curtain. "Are you a doctor? You judged that she was hopeless and left her alone in the middle of the road? "


    When he came, he also saw the pool of blood in the middle of the road, and an embarrassed look floated. "I''m just telling her the truth that the possibility of cure is small, so I asked her if she has any unfinished wishes. I''m willing to help." He stopped and hurriedly explained, "I placed her under the eaves of that corner, at least I could hide from the rain. Unexpectedly, she climbed into the middle of the road by herself. She said that there was a package of things buried under the locust tree outside the drunken flower shop. I must let you take it for her last look, and then bury it with her. I had to take something first to fulfill her last wish. "


    Surprised to hear this, he couldn''t help humming, "pedantic!"


    Zhuo Xi hooked her mouth and pretended to scold, "don''t talk nonsense. Don''t wipe her with a towel!"


    Startled Yan glanced, took out a handkerchief and wiped her face carefully, but her look changed slowly.


    Zhuo Xi took a small stove to cover her hands, stuffed it into the pregnant woman''s arms, and pressed her hand on the stove. For a moment, she lost her words.

 Chapter 85

    But the man outside heard that there was no sound inside. He couldn''t help asking, "how''s she?"


    Zhuo Xi said faintly, "I don''t know."


    "I don''t know? Aren''t you a doctor? You''re not a doctor. Did you save her? " It was Wu Ru who asked in a shrill voice.


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at her, "what''s the matter with you?"


    "I want to go home!" She screamed again.


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "old horse, stop."


    The old horse stopped soon.


    Zhuo Xi said to Wu Ru, "please get off."


    Wu Ru screamed again, "what? It''s raining so hard that you let me off? "


    "Aren''t you going home? Now there are patients on the bus and can''t go back to Wu''s house. If you want to go home, you can only go back by yourself. "


    Wu Ru was so angry that she trembled all over. Wu Jiao quickly rounded up the scene, "third sister, saving one life is better than building a seven level floating Tu. Let''s go with six younger sisters. "


    Wu Ru looked at the pouring rain outside the window and had to suppress her anger and turn her face aside.


    Zhuo Xi gave another order, and the old horse drove the carriage again and galloped to the front.


    It was easy to knock on a medical school. The doctor heard that it was a pregnant woman. He waved his hand and refused to enter the door. He went around to find another medical school. The doctor came out to the carriage and took his pulse. He shook his head again and again. Zhuo Xi was so angry that he directly asked Lao Ma to drive the car to Xiyan Yangsheng hall, which had not yet opened in sanxiangfang.


    Xiyan Yangsheng hall hasn''t opened yet. The front hall is still being renovated. They went in from the backyard.


    As soon as he entered the yard, Zhuo Xi ordered, "Xiao Ji, take them to find some clean cloth and prepare some spirits. Hurry up. Honey, boil two pots of water. Don''t be too hot. It''s better to have ready-made hot water. Quickly bring in two pots and take some empty pots. Xiao Li, go and grab 15g of Radix Pseudostellariae, trichosanthin, Ophiopogon japonicus and polygonatum, 10g of Cyperus, Chuanpu, Yuanhu and rhubarb, fry a column of incense, add 6G of tangerine peel, and fry twice in water. Cook it and bring it in immediately. " The girls took orders at once.


    According to zhuoxi''s words, Jingyan placed the pregnant woman in a newly decorated operation room. Zhuo Xi went into his temporary bedroom, changed into clean clothes, and took out his temporary toolbox just made some time ago. She was about to open the door to go out, but she saw surprised words rush in and knelt down without saying a word. Zhuo Xi stepped back to avoid her impact so as not to dirty his clothes and said, "I know what you''re going to say. Time is urgent and it''s important to save people. You go and pick a clean dress and change it to help. I''ll go first. I''ll talk about it later. "


    After that, she didn''t care to look at the surprised face, so she hurried out. When she arrived at the room that had just been renovated and was ready to be used for noodles steaming, she smiled bitterly. Who knows that the massage bed used for noodles steaming played the role of the operating bed for the first time? It''s just a pity that the lighting conditions and surgical tools.


    The outside of the room was quickly surrounded by those 13-year-old and 14-year-old health care apprentices. They were shocked to see a pregnant woman lying bloody in bed. Xiao Ji moves very fast. A pile of clean white cloth has been put by the bed.


    The man in grey was taking his pulse inside. Seeing Zhuo Xi coming in, he didn''t speak and continued to take his pulse. A moment later, he put away his pulse taking hand and said with a sigh, "the maternal is now in a coma and weak, and the fetus is ectopic and dystocia. It seems that one body and two lives will be lost. Alas, sin! " He lifted his eyes and saw Zhuo Xi cutting off the clothes of the pregnant woman''s lower body with scissors. He turned around reflexively, "girl, girl, what are you doing?"


    "When you get a girl outside, Zhuo Xi asks you to change your clothes," she said. If you''re afraid of blood, don''t force it. "


    If he was pardoned, he immediately rushed out.


    Surprised Yan opened the door and came in. Zhuo xiphene said, "close the doors and windows. There is a candle in the box. Light it and burn the thinnest and longest knife on the fire. "


    Surprised Yan Yiyan lit the candle and trembled to burn the knife.


    Zhuo Xi had cut all the pregnant women''s clothes, wiped them with a clean cloth first, and then took a clean cloth and dipped it in spirits to wipe them again. She touched her weak aorta with her hand and said softly, "girl, no one is willing to save you now. The doctor says you''re dead. I can only try my best. I may not be able to save you. The conditions here are very poor. If you can hear me, you must hold on. It may be painful and comatose, but as long as you are conscious, you must hold on. As long as you hold on, you can live. "


    Xiao Ji came in with the hot water. Zhuo Xi tried the water temperature and said, "take the white cloth and wait here."


    Startled and trembling, he handed the knife to Zhuo Xi, and under Zhuo Xi''s instructions, he put the thin thread that didn''t know what it was into the embroidery needle with obvious big needle eyes and baked it on the fire.


    Zhuo Xi took the knife, disinfected with alcohol and gently cut open the pregnant woman''s stomach.


    Surprised speech covered his mouth and watched the blood gush out madly. Zhuo Xi immediately said, "take the cloth and press it here to stop bleeding."


    She quickly cut open seven layers of skin before she saw the baby''s transparent skin. She gently took out the baby, cut off the umbilical cord and gave it to Xiao Ji. She said, "I don''t know if I can live. You wash him first. After washing, call the quack in and feel his pulse. "


    Zhuo Xi''s men didn''t stop. He quickly took out the placenta and threw it in the basin aside. He said, "ask Xiao Li to come and wash the Purple River cart and dry it in a moment". While he sucked the blood around the wound with cotton cloth, he immediately picked up the needle and thread on one side and quickly sewed up the pregnant woman''s stomach layer by layer. He was stunned and Xiao Ji was stunned. Zhuo Xi was stunned when she saw Xiao Ji and drank, "has the baby been washed? Pat him on the back with his feet and head. "


    Fortunately, the water in the basin was shallow. Xiao Ji quickly wiped the baby clean, turned it upside down and patted on the back. There was no response. Zhuo Xi said while carefully sewing the needle, "call the Jianghu doctor in and have a look."


    Surprised Yan quickly opened the door to a small crack and saw the man in gray changing into clean clothes waiting at the door, "this little brother, please come in."


    When he heard the speech coming in, Zhuo Xi and Jingyan''s back blocked the pregnant woman''s bloody stomach. He also knew that it was not polite to look at it. Instead, he looked at Xiao Ji carrying the baby in his hand and coming towards him like a ghost. He watched in horror as she carried the baby upside down. He didn''t know how the baby came out of his mother''s coma. He also thought that the baby might have lost its life in the mother''s fetus, so he was carried upside down. He slowly pressed down the feeling of panic, but suddenly he heard the baby cough gently, and then he began to cry in a low voice. Xiao Ji was surprised and happy. He quickly held it right. He wanted to put it into the doctor''s hands. When he found his hands dirty, he hurried back to the bed, wrapped them with a clean cloth, took another clean cloth and put it in his hand. He said, "doctor, take a look. Be careful not to dirty it."


    Zhuo Xi also heard the baby''s cry. While sewing a needle, she said to the unconscious person on the bed, "girl, your baby is alive. If you hear it, wake up quickly. Wake up and you can live. Both of you are dead. Life is alive. As long as there is life, don''t be afraid of anything. " She tied the end of the last rope and stretched out her hand to ask for scissors, but she didn''t receive it. She looked up strangely and found that Jingyan had burst into tears. She exclaimed, "surprise, scissors." He woke up like a dream, wiped his tears, and hurriedly handed her the scissors.


    She cut the thread, breathed out, sat down powerlessly on the ground and said, "hurry up and wipe her with water. Twelve hours after operation. You should stare at her all the time. If your intestines are ventilated or awake, tell me. "


    Surprised Yan cried and laughed, and Yiyan began the cleaning work.


    The doctor was flustered to feel his pulse and couldn''t concentrate. Hearing Zhuo Xi''s words, he felt very magical. He glanced at the pregnant woman on the bed. He only felt that his eyes were full of blood. He didn''t feel that his feet were soft and fainted. Xiao Ji is holding the baby to let him take a pulse. Seeing this, he quickly hugs the baby to his chest and hugs it tightly.


    The first time she operated on a pregnant woman, she relied entirely on her unskilled surgical experience and limited obstetric knowledge. Her highly focused attention alone consumed her a lot of energy. If she failed, at least she did her best to help her. She was very satisfied. The hardware environment here is really poor. I hope it won''t be infected.


    Zhuo Xi slowly propped up and felt that she had recovered some strength, so she opened the door and went out. As she walked, she said, "come and change the basin of water inside. Find some more clean cloth. The medicine soup was fried and fed to the pregnant woman bit by bit. Who goes outside to look for a nanny? If not, there can be milk or goat''s milk. In addition, cook some rice soup first. In case you can''t find milk, you can mix it up for the baby first. I''ll take a break first. Call me if anything happens. " She said all the way. Then she went to the bedroom, washed it at will, took off her blood clothes, lay on the bed, closed her eyes and fell asleep.


    When Zhuo Xi woke up, she couldn''t see her fingers in the house and vaguely heard someone walking outside. She walked, wearing a clean coat, stroking her empty stomach, opened the door and went out. Xiao Li had been waiting outside the door. When she opened the door, she immediately greeted her, "sister, how are you? Are you all right? "


    Zhuo Xi walked to the kitchen with her hands on her back and asked, "how can a woman use medicine because of postpartum blood deficiency and Yang has nothing to rely on?" There was no way. In front of this group of girls, they benefited their teachers and friends. At the beginning, they had to call themselves "master" or "Sir". They really didn''t like these titles, so they asked them to call their sister. While patrolling the house she designed and transformed herself, she stared carefully at the ground. Once she found some small grass roots, she immediately discarded the model of being a teacher she deliberately created, squatted down and picked up the fine garbage on the ground into the garbage can in the corner. This is the Yangsheng hall. The sanitary conditions should be in line with the hospital.


    Xiao Li, flushed, rushed to pick up a few pieces of garbage and replied, "it should depend on whether the woman has fever. If there is no fever, it is appropriate to supplement Yin blood with Wenyang Siwu Decoction, and treat the pain of roasted dry ginger with temperature, so as to recover the floating Yang and make it return to Yin. If there is fever, use Angelica Buxue Decoction, add silver Bupleurum and Baiwei to clear away the deficiency heat. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and asked, "can that woman have fever? Is there a blood leak? What medicine did you use? "


    Xiao Li replied, "sister, you have rested for less than two hours. The woman has only a slight fever and has no blood avalanche and blood leakage. She was surprised to say that her sister is wiping her with wine. Xiao Li is stupid and dare not give her indiscriminate medication."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "it''s a cautious. Remember, we are only a health care and health preservation place, and the soup and medicine used are only conservative prescriptions based on strengthening the foundation and strengthening the yuan. We must not prescribe medicine to guests at will. If the prescriptions for health preservation and conditioning need to be adjusted according to the guests'' physique, they must be prescribed by the sitting doctor. " Speaking of the doctor, she had to worry again. She had planned to bring the wind to the hall, but she gave up the idea when she saw Yan Rong''s tragedy again last time. Are you kidding? When a doctor is unhappy, he breaks the bones of a person''s whole body. When he is happy, he connects the bones for others. Which hospital dares to invite such a Bodhisattva?

 Chapter 86

    She had gone to the kitchen door and pushed the door in. She saw Xiaoji holding a baby with busy hands and feet, and a little girl was feeding. When they saw Zhuo Xi coming in, they quickly got up and saluted, "sister." Zhuo Xi waved, "I''ve already said that there are so many rules. How''s the baby? " She didn''t wait for them to answer, and then said, "hurry up, Xiao Li, your hands and feet are fast. Help me make something to eat. I''m hungry now. Eh, there''s porridge here. Let''s just make some dishes for dinner. " Xiao Li directly opened the lid of the back pot and brought out a bowl of chicken soup. "Sister, I''ve already prepared it for you. It''s too hard for you to work hard. Drink a bowl of chicken soup to warm up. I made another bowl of oil-free clear soup. I wonder if I can give it to the woman? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded admiringly, "great, porridge with chicken soup, that''s chicken porridge! Give me two bowls first. If the woman wakes up, you can also give her a small bowl. Well, darling, how much rice soup did the baby drink? "


    The girl named Xiaoguai picked up the bottom of the bowl, lit it up and said, "just drink a little bit from the bottom of the bowl."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the baby in Xiaoji''s arms. "The child is suffering in the mother. You should be careful. If he doesn''t eat, don''t feed him, coax him to sleep, and always cultivate a sense of security slowly. Oh, by the way, you should prepare a lot of clean diapers. You should allocate people and wash diapers every other hour. If he cries, he will either be hungry or shit and pee. Nanny didn''t find it? No milk or goat''s milk? "


    Xiao Ji said with a bitter smile, "we like this. We went out to find a nanny and were thrown out at the beginning. Milk was not found, but sheep''s milk. Some families said they would have it in the morning. Let''s go and get it tomorrow morning. "


    Zhuo Xi was angry at the speech. "Is the old horse there?"


    "Uncle Ma has just sent two Miss Wu back to Wu''s house and is resting in the front yard."


    "Which girl just went to look for a nanny and was thrown out? Let old ma take her to that family. It''s said that Hou''s house wants to find a nanny and let him buy the nanny. Then go to the family with a ewe and buy the ewe and raise it in the backyard. Miss Ben is not short of money. If she is short of money, she will go to find Jingyan. " The nurse feeds the baby, and the goat''s milk can feed the parturient. Now Jing Yan is Zhuo Xi''s little housekeeper. All the money is written in her hand like a lifeblood. Although Xiao Li is the housekeeper here, she asks Jing Yan for her monthly expenses.


    Little darling put down his bowl and ran out happily. Little Gila couldn''t hold it, so she had to wipe her mouth for the baby, hold it and stand up. Zhuo Xi stretched her neck and looked at the baby with her eyes closed. "Shh" and handed the empty bowl to Xiao Li again. For just two minutes, Xiao Ji surprised them both to see that the cat like face was sleeping. Zhuo Xi gently told her to take Xiaobao to the room and have a good sleep.


    Zhuo Xi had enough to eat and drink, stood up and touched her round stomach, and then walked outside the "operating room" with her hands on her back.


    The door was wide open, and a thin figure stood outside the door, looking at the moon in the sky, as if talking to himself.


    Zhuo Xi approached and said, "Why are you still here?"


    The man came over and bowed. "I''m surnamed Hong Mingquan. Although I know a little about medicine, I can''t imagine how the girl saved the sister-in-law. I hope the girl can tell me?"


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "but every doctor has some secrets that don''t spread. Have you ever seen a doctor show these secrets to others casually?"


    Hong Quan choked, which was reasonable. "Why are you so stingy to give me advice because you have such superb medical skills? If we carry it forward and can save more people with the same symptoms, isn''t it a great merit? "


    She sneered, "what is great merit? If the world knows that this method is Caesarean section, will it still think that this is a great merit? I''m afraid I have to think that this girl is a monster? "


    Hong Quan stumbled, "cut, cut..." his tongue was tied so that he couldn''t speak.


    Zhuo Xi ignored him and pushed the door in directly. The smell of blood in the room made her frown deeply.


    Surprised Yan Ben sat by the bed. Seeing her coming in, he quickly stood up and put down the cloth in his hand. Zhuo Xi asked her to open the window a little for ventilation, then walked forward, put her hand on the woman''s forehead and asked softly, "now you can tell me who she is."


    She knelt down with a startled voice, "Miss, I''m damned. She is a sister released by the feather gate five years ago. Her name is Ke min. Originally a concubine of a rich merchant. The last time we let out the wind to let the sister of the feather gate find an opportunity, she had clearly told us that she was pregnant and did not want to leave the rich merchant. I don''t know why she was on the street when she gave birth. Fortunately, I met the young lady, otherwise I didn''t know... "She said in surprise and began to cry.


    "You''ve been watching her. Is she angry?"


    "It seems, it seems, there is a sound of ventilation." Surprised speech became a little stuttered. The so-called ventilation means farting.


    Zhuo Xi gave a sound, looked at her face, and suddenly pressed her abdomen with her hand. Suddenly the woman screamed out of bed.


    Startled, he stood up and rushed up, "Miss, miss!"


    Zhuo Xi''s men were a little relaxed.


    The woman opened her eyes in severe pain. Her sight changed from blurred to clear. She saw a strange face in front of her and a familiar person on the side. But why did she look at the girl anxiously? Before she opened her mouth, she felt another sharp pain in her abdomen. She immediately woke up and bit her lower lip. After the man''s hand finally relaxed, she slowly lay down and said softly, "where''s my child?"


    Surprised words rushed over, "sister min, are you awake? How do you feel? "


    "It hurts. It hurts to death. Girl Yan, tell me first. Where''s my child?" She said with difficulty.


    "He, he''s fine. Xiao Ji said he fell asleep."


    Ke min glared at her, turned around and stared at her, "you said he was still alive!" As a result, she didn''t hear the surprised answer. She suddenly felt a burst of abdominal pain. She felt that the whole person would shrink up even her limbs.


    Surprised speech was also surprised. He looked at Zhuo Xi dimly with tears, "Miss..."


    Zhuo Xi finally took back her palm and opened the bedding. "The congestion in the abdomen is not pressed out, which is easy to cause infection. This pain will be borne every two hours for the next two days. "


    Ke min tried her best to hold Zhuo Xi''s clothes. "Yes, is it the girl who saved our mother and son? My child, is it really alive? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "yes, I just fed him rice soup, and now I''m asleep. If you don''t feel at ease, let Jing Yan ask Xiao Ji to take a look at you. " Surprised speech heard speech and quickly stood up and went out to find Xiaoji.


    Ke min burst into tears, but laughed, "boy, my boy! We are all alive! "


    Zhuo Xi put aside her hand and said coldly, "you haven''t got out of the danger period. Next, you may have fever, the wound may burst open, and there may be more than blood leakage. The most likely thing is infection. Every time you press blood, it will hurt to death. There are no effective painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs here, and there is no one to help you take care of your children. Whether you want to use this child to avenge or repay kindness in the future, you must survive by yourself. Only after you survive the first four days can you survive. If you survive, your child will have a mother. "


    Ke min nodded firmly, "thank you, girl!"


    Jing Yan and Xiao Ji had already brought the baby in. Ke min trembled and touched the wrinkled little face with her hand, closed her eyes and shed two lines of clear tears. As soon as Zhuo Xi waved her hand, Xiao Ji quietly went down with the baby in her arms. Zhuo Xi ordered Jing Yan to clean Ke min again and walked out of the door.


    "Maybe you can take some medicine with Tang Xi," she said Xiao Li answered and went to the kitchen. Seeing that Hong Quan was still standing outside the door, he sniffed the direction of the kitchen and said, "the addition and subtraction of Angelica blood tonic soup is really suitable for women''s postpartum deficiency tonic."


    Zhuo Xi was going to go back to her room to continue to rest. Hearing this, she suddenly stopped and asked, "how do you practice medicine, sir? He Ke? Which hospital are you sitting in now? "


    Hong Quan looked at Zhuo Xi, smiled bitterly, bowed and said, "Xiaosheng is not a doctor, but he is obsessed with medical ethics every day. He once studied medicine with an old Chinese medicine for several years. The old Chinese medicine said that he vowed not to accept disciples, so Xiaosheng just followed him to diagnose diseases and diseases and practiced his kung fu of looking, smelling, asking and cutting for several years. The world despises women, so some women often ask Xiaosheng to see a doctor for them, because qianjinke is afraid that Xiaosheng is better at it. On the contrary, in terms of pharmacology, Xiaosheng himself read two medical books, and his knowledge is really limited. Therefore, he did not sit in any hospital. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "listen to what Sir said, sir is good at the diagnosis of qianjinke? Treating diseases and saving people is the most basic. The woman in the room has just woken up. I wonder if Sir can give her a pulse? "


    "The girl has excellent medical skills. How can Xiaosheng dare to teach others?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "let me see your ability to break the disease?"


    Hong Quanding was calm and proud. "In this way, Xiaosheng will try."


    Zhuo Xi came in and saw that Jing Yan had packed up. Just about to take the blood basin out, he let Hong Quan in.


    Zhuo Xi explained the reason to Ke min. she also thanked them politely and stretched out her hand.


    Hong Quan had no taboo. He put his finger on Ke min''s pulse, closed his eyes and meditated. After a while, he opened his eyes again, looked around Ke min''s face, looked at the tongue coating, and changed another hand to take the pulse. Just looking at these, Zhuo Xi is very satisfied. In this era, many men regard the delivery room as a dirty place, and more doctors hate to treat women. Although Ke min is a concubine of a rich merchant, in this era of slavery, concubines are equal to female slaves. Which doctor will take pulse diagnosis for a female slave? What''s more, she is a new pregnant woman.


    After the final diagnosis, Hong Quan said to Zhuo Xi, "this woman has postpartum blood deficiency and air floatation. If blood deficiency cannot be nurtured, Yang floats more and more outside. The blood stasis in her body has not dispersed, and she has suffered from internal injury and aversion to cold for nearly half a month, and the fire has not been eliminated. Xiaosheng thought that she should use guibuxue Decoction and Baiwei to reduce fever and disperse silt, and add notopterygium to disperse the evil of the sun. "


    ¡­¡­


    Empress Dowager''s grace


    When Zhuo Xi woke up, she couldn''t see her fingers in the house and vaguely heard someone walking outside. She walked, wearing a clean coat, stroking her empty stomach, opened the door and went out. Xiao Li had been waiting outside the door. When she opened the door, she immediately greeted her, "sister, how are you? Are you all right? "


    Zhuo Xi walked to the kitchen with her hands on her back and asked, "how can a woman use medicine because of postpartum blood deficiency and Yang has nothing to rely on?" There was no way. In front of this group of girls, they benefited their teachers and friends. At the beginning, they had to call themselves "master" or "Sir". They really didn''t like these titles, so they asked them to call their sister. While patrolling the house she designed and transformed herself, she stared carefully at the ground. Once she found some small grass roots, she immediately discarded the model of being a teacher she deliberately created, squatted down and picked up the fine garbage on the ground into the garbage can in the corner. This is the Yangsheng hall. The sanitary conditions should be in line with the hospital.


    Xiao Li, flushed, rushed to pick up a few pieces of garbage and replied, "it should depend on whether the woman has fever.

    Zhuo Xi nodded and asked, "can that woman have fever? Is there a blood leak? What medicine did you use? "


    Xiao Li replied, "sister, you have rested for less than two hours. The woman has only a slight fever and has no blood avalanche and blood leakage. She was surprised to say that her sister is wiping her with wine. Xiao Li is stupid and dare not give her indiscriminate medication."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "it''s a cautious. Remember, we are only a health care and health preservation place, and the soup and medicine used are only conservative prescriptions based on strengthening the foundation and strengthening the yuan. We must not prescribe medicine to guests at will. If the prescriptions for health preservation and conditioning need to be adjusted according to the guests'' physique, they must be prescribed by the sitting doctor. " Speaking of the doctor, she had to worry again. She had planned to bring the wind to the hall, but she gave up the idea when she saw Yan Rong''s tragedy again last time. Are you kidding? When a doctor is unhappy, he breaks the bones of a person''s whole body. When he is happy, he connects the bones for others. Which hospital dares to invite such a Bodhisattva?


    She had gone to the kitchen door and pushed the door in. She saw Xiaoji holding a baby with busy hands and feet, and a little girl was feeding. When they saw Zhuo Xi coming in, they quickly got up and saluted, "sister." Zhuo Xi waved, "I''ve already said that there are so many rules. How''s the baby? " She didn''t wait for them to answer, and then said, "hurry up, Xiao Li, your hands and feet are fast. Help me make something to eat. I''m hungry now. Eh, there''s porridge here. Let''s just make some dishes for dinner. " Xiao Li directly opened the lid of the back pot and brought out a bowl of chicken soup. "Sister, I''ve already prepared it for you. It''s too hard for you to work hard. Drink a bowl of chicken soup to warm up. I made another bowl of oil-free clear soup. I wonder if I can give it to the woman? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded admiringly, "great, porridge with chicken soup, that''s chicken porridge! Give me two bowls first. If the woman wakes up, you can also give her a small bowl. Well, darling, how much rice soup did the baby drink? "


    The girl named Xiaoguai picked up the bottom of the bowl, lit it up and said, "just drink a little bit from the bottom of the bowl."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the baby in Xiaoji''s arms. "The child is suffering in the mother. You should be careful. If he doesn''t eat, don''t feed him, coax him to sleep, and always cultivate a sense of security slowly. Oh, by the way, you should prepare a lot of clean diapers. You should allocate people and wash diapers every other hour. If he cries, he will either be hungry or shit and pee. Nanny didn''t find it? No milk or goat''s milk? "


    Xiao Ji said with a bitter smile, "we like this. We went out to find a nanny and were thrown out at the beginning. Milk was not found, but sheep''s milk. Some families said they would have it in the morning. Let''s go and get it tomorrow morning. "


    Zhuo Xi was angry at the speech. "Is the old horse there?"


    "Uncle Ma has just sent two Miss Wu back to Wu''s house and is resting in the front yard."


    "Which girl just went to look for a nanny and was thrown out? Let old ma take her to that family. It''s said that Hou''s house wants to find a nanny and let him buy the nanny. Then go to the family with a ewe and buy the ewe and raise it in the backyard. Miss Ben is not short of money. If she is short of money, she will go to find Jingyan. " The nurse feeds the baby, and the goat''s milk can feed the parturient. Now Jing Yan is Zhuo Xi''s little housekeeper. All the money is written in her hand like a lifeblood. Although Xiao Li is the housekeeper here, she asks Jing Yan for her monthly expenses.


    Little darling put down his bowl and ran out happily. Little Gila couldn''t hold it, so she had to wipe her mouth for the baby, hold it and stand up. Zhuo Xi stretched her neck and looked at the baby with her eyes closed. "Shh" and handed the empty bowl to Xiao Li again. For just two minutes, Xiao Ji surprised them both to see that the cat like face was sleeping. Zhuo Xi gently told her to take Xiaobao to the room and have a good sleep.


    Zhuo Xi had enough to eat and drink, stood up and touched her round stomach, and then walked outside the "operating room" with her hands on her back.


    The door was wide open, and a thin figure stood outside the door, looking at the moon in the sky, as if talking to himself.


    Zhuo Xi approached and said, "Why are you still here?"


    The man came over and bowed. "I''m surnamed Hong Mingquan. Although I know a little about medicine, I can''t imagine how the girl saved the sister-in-law. I hope the girl can tell me?"


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "but every doctor has some secrets that don''t spread. Have you ever seen a doctor show these secrets to others casually?"


    Hong Quan choked, which was reasonable. "Why are you so stingy to give me advice because you have such superb medical skills? If we carry it forward and can save more people with the same symptoms, isn''t it a great merit? "


    She sneered, "what is great merit? If the world knows that this method is Caesarean section, will it still think that this is a great merit? I''m afraid I have to think that this girl is a monster? "


    Hong Quan stumbled, "cut, cut..." his tongue was tied so that he couldn''t speak.


    Zhuo Xi ignored him and pushed the door in directly. The smell of blood in the room made her frown deeply.


    Surprised Yan Ben sat by the bed. Seeing her coming in, he quickly stood up and put down the cloth in his hand. Zhuo Xi asked her to open the window a little for ventilation, then walked forward, put her hand on the woman''s forehead and asked softly, "now you can tell me who she is."


    She knelt down with a startled voice, "Miss, I''m damned. She is a sister released by the feather gate five years ago. Her name is Ke min. Originally a concubine of a rich merchant. The last time we let out the wind to let the sister of the feather gate find an opportunity, she had clearly told us that she was pregnant and did not want to leave the rich merchant. I don''t know why she was on the street when she gave birth. Fortunately, I met the young lady, otherwise I didn''t know... "She said in surprise and began to cry.


    "You''ve been watching her. Is she angry?"


    "It seems, it seems, there is a sound of ventilation." Surprised speech became a little stuttered. The so-called ventilation means farting.


    Zhuo Xi gave a sound, looked at her face, and suddenly pressed her abdomen with her hand. Suddenly the woman screamed out of bed.


    Startled, he stood up and rushed up, "Miss, miss!"


    Zhuo Xi''s men were a little relaxed.


    The woman opened her eyes in severe pain. Her sight changed from blurred to clear. She saw a strange face in front of her and a familiar person on the side. But why did she look at the girl anxiously? Before she opened her mouth, she felt another sharp pain in her abdomen. She immediately woke up and bit her lower lip. After the man''s hand finally relaxed, she slowly lay down and said softly, "where''s my child?"


    Surprised words rushed over, "sister min, are you awake? How do you feel? "


    "It hurts. It hurts to death. Girl Yan, tell me first. Where''s my child?" She said with difficulty.


    "He, he''s fine. Xiao Ji said he fell asleep."


    Ke min glared at her, turned around and stared at her, "you said he was still alive!" As a result, she didn''t hear the surprised answer. She suddenly felt a burst of abdominal pain. She felt that the whole person would shrink up even her limbs.


    Surprised speech was also surprised. He looked at Zhuo Xi dimly with tears, "Miss..."


    Zhuo Xi finally took back her palm and opened the bedding. "The congestion in the abdomen is not pressed out, which is easy to cause infection. This pain will be borne every two hours for the next three days. "


    Ke min tried her best to hold Zhuo Xi''s clothes. "Yes, is it the girl who saved our mother and son? My child, is it really alive? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "yes, I just fed him rice soup, and now I''m asleep. If you don''t feel at ease, let Jing Yan ask Xiao Ji to take a look at you. " Surprised speech heard speech and quickly stood up and went out to find Xiaoji.


    Ke min burst into tears, but laughed, "boy, my boy! We are all alive! "


    Zhuo Xi put aside her hand and said coldly, "you haven''t got out of the danger period. Next, you may have fever, the wound may burst open, and there may be more than blood leakage. The most likely thing is infection. Every time you press blood, it will hurt to death. There are no effective painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs here, and there is no one to help you take care of your children. Whether you want to use this child to avenge or repay kindness in the future, you must survive by yourself. Only after you survive the first four days can you survive. If you survive, your child will have a mother. "


    Ke min nodded firmly, "thank you, girl!"


    Jing Yan and Xiao Ji had already brought the baby in. Ke min trembled and touched the wrinkled little face with her hand, closed her eyes and shed two lines of clear tears. As soon as Zhuo Xi waved her hand, Xiao Ji quietly went down with the baby in her arms. Zhuo Xi ordered Jing Yan to clean Ke min again and walked out of the door.


    "Maybe you can take some medicine with Tang Xi," she said Xiao Li answered and went to the kitchen. Seeing that Hong Quan was still standing outside the door, he sniffed the direction of the kitchen and said, "the addition and subtraction of Angelica blood tonic soup is really suitable for women''s postpartum deficiency tonic."


    Zhuo Xi was going to go back to her room to continue to rest. Hearing this, she suddenly stopped and asked, "how do you practice medicine, sir? He Ke? Which hospital are you sitting in now? "


    Hong Quan looked at Zhuo Xi, smiled bitterly, bowed and said, "Xiaosheng is not a doctor, but he is obsessed with medical ethics every day. He once studied medicine with an old Chinese medicine for several years. The old Chinese medicine said that he vowed not to accept disciples, so Xiaosheng just followed him to diagnose diseases and diseases and practiced his kung fu of looking, smelling, asking and cutting for several years. The world despises women, so some women often ask Xiaosheng to see a doctor for them, because qianjinke is afraid that Xiaosheng is better at it. On the contrary, in terms of pharmacology, Xiaosheng himself read two medical books, and his knowledge is really limited. Therefore, he did not sit in any hospital. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "listen to what Sir said, sir is good at the diagnosis of qianjinke? Treating diseases and saving people is the most basic. The woman in the room has just woken up. I wonder if Sir can give her a pulse? "


    "The girl has excellent medical skills. How can Xiaosheng dare to teach others?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "let me see your ability to break the disease?"


    Hong Quanding was calm and proud. "In this way, Xiaosheng will try."


    Zhuo Xi came in and saw that Jing Yan had packed up. Just about to take the blood basin out, he let Hong Quan in.


    Zhuo Xi explained the reason to Ke min. she also thanked them politely and stretched out her hand.


    Hong Quan had no taboo. He put his finger on Ke min''s pulse, closed his eyes and meditated. After a while, he opened his eyes again, looked around Ke min''s face, looked at the tongue coating, and changed another hand to take the pulse. Just looking at these, Zhuo Xi is very satisfied. In this era, many men regard the delivery room as a dirty place, and more doctors hate to treat women. Although Ke min is a concubine of a rich merchant, in this era of slavery, concubines are equal to female slaves. Which doctor will take pulse diagnosis for a female slave? What''s more, she is a new pregnant woman.


    After the final diagnosis, Hong Quan said to Zhuo Xi, "this woman has postpartum blood deficiency and air floatation. If blood deficiency cannot be nurtured, Yang floats more and more outside. The blood stasis in her body has not dispersed, and she has suffered from internal injury and aversion to cold for nearly half a month, and the fire has not been eliminated. Xiaosheng thought that she should use guibuxue Decoction and Baiwei to reduce fever and disperse silt, and add notopterygium to disperse the evil of the sun. "


    "Do you have cold aversion?" Zhuo Xi pondered and turned to ask Ke min, "have you suffered from fatigue, lung fire, phlegm, alcohol, food, sore poison, depression and fire recently?"


    Ke min replied, "there is a poison sore on his back."


    Zhuo Xi said with satisfaction, "Sir is really good at it, and the decoction will be done according to what Sir said. If you don''t mind, let''s have a rest in the outside hospital tonight. If her condition repeats at night, would you like to take care of her? "


    Hong Quan was very happy. "It is the doctor''s bounden duty to take care of patients. Although the sister-in-law is not as dangerous as before, she is still in danger. Xiaosheng is willing to come to see her at any time. Please arrange it. "


    Zhuo Xi stepped out of the room and called two little girls to do it separately. He called Xiao Li again and gave him a detailed order. Then he rushed back to Wu''s house all night with startled words. She has to make some preparations. She can''t delay going south. It''s just that Ke min''s side has broken through the gates of hell, and during the month of confinement, and that kitten like baby. Alas, they have to take care of Xiaoli carefully. Hong Quan is here, and their life should be safe.

 Chapter 87

    In Ci''an palace, the Empress Dowager was leaning on the big Kang, chatting with mother su. Suddenly, a gong''e came in and reported, "empress dowager, chasing the beauty of the king of maple palace, came to see her."


    Mother Su looked at the Empress Dowager''s face and saw that the Empress Dowager frowned slightly. She immediately drank to the palace maid, "something without eyes! No, the Empress Dowager is having a headache?! Tell her she''s gone! "


    The palace maid then whispered, "she said. She said that she was entrusted by Miss Zhuo Xi to send flower tea to the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager is unwell, she wants to give it to mammy Su herself. "


    The Empress Dowager got up slowly when she heard the speech. "It''s rare that this Zhuo Xi girl still remembers my old woman, so let her come in."


    The palace maid went out in response.


    Mother Su said with a smile, "the king beauty really doesn''t give up. Has she been here for more than ten days?"


    The Empress Dowager replied, "it''s not stupid this time. I actually know the name of the girl. Eh? Normally, they were wrong before? "


    "That''s what the old slave thinks. Let''s see what she wants to say."


    After hearing Gong e''s affirmative answer, the uneasy beauty Wang breathed a sigh of relief, took the small bag from ruoshue''s hand, and walked in with Gong E.


    She lowered her eyebrows and felt the first two pressing eyes shooting at her. All the harem women she saw these days were disgusted and despised. As for the king, she hasn''t seen him since she entered the fifth division. But she knew that the man might only be angry with her. If it weren''t for the child in his belly, I''m afraid he would have died long ago. How could he appear in front of her and let him remember the humiliation of those days? In any case, we must keep the child and ourselves before we can keep our father. Without these premises, everything else is a joke.


    Under the guidance of the palace maid, she went down to a futon in the palace, knelt down, bowed down and made a big gift, "see the Empress Dowager." Those two compelling eyes burned her back. She only felt that when her limbs and bones were about to curl up, she finally heard a voice say "get up".


    She straightened up and quickly held the bag of tea in front of her, "this is what miss zhuoxi asked her concubine to bring you. I wish you good health and longevity."


    Mother Su shouted, "presumptuous! Don''t you know that everything entering the Ci''an palace must be inspected by the Royal Medical Department before it can enter the Ci''an palace? If something happens, how can you bear it?! What''s more, who in Kyoto doesn''t know that you were the fiancee of Guang''an Hou? In love and reason, how could the people of the Marquis of Guang''an ask you to bring some tea into Ci''an palace? "


    Beauty Wang smiled miserably, and her lower lip had bitten blood. "Since she was 13 years old, my concubine had deep love for Guang''an Hou and wanted to marry him as her wife. Therefore, he brought disaster to his mother and did not repent for three years. Now that my concubine has landed in such a land, I can''t blame others. But the concubine still has a word to say. She was drugged and forced to stay in the palace. Although miss zhuoxi had a quarrel with her concubine, she never hurt her heart. Now I can''t help but look back and suddenly wake up. Now is the most important thing. Now I''m pregnant with a dragon seed. Although it''s not my wish, as a mother, is there any reason not to protect him? My concubine knows that everyone hates me, but she is walking on thin ice in this deep palace. Miss Zhuo Xi is kind and instructs my concubine to come and ask my ancestors for protection. It''s not a pity that my concubine died, but the child in my belly is really royal blood. Please pity my ancestors! "


    "As far as I know, Miss Zhuo Xi is not a nosy person. Did you make a deal with her? "


    Beauty Wang wiped her tears and said, "Wu Yishi will not help beauty Wang. But miss Zhuo Xi will be willing to help the concubine because Wang Jialin saved the life of Guang''an Hou. "


    The Empress Dowager asked again, "you said you were walking on thin ice, but what''s the difference in the harem? As far as the mourners know, the harem has been calm for a long time. "


    Wang Mei said humanely, "my concubine invited my wife and miss to get together on her birthday yesterday. I wanted to clear up my old grudges with Miss Zhuo Xi. Unexpectedly, Queen sun and the imperial concubines came to congratulate her. The concubine was flattered, but she poisoned Luo Xiaojun Ji. My concubine is stupid. I don''t know what path there is. Please give me some advice. "


    The Empress Dowager Teng sat up straight and snapped, "what?! Is Luo Xiaojun Ji highly toxic? Why didn''t anyone report me? Tell me what happened last night! "


    Beauty Wang raised her head and told the story of last night in detail. After hearing this, the Empress Dowager relaxed her body and breathed out a breath. Mammy Su patted her chest on the side, "fortunately, it was dangerous. My ancestors, it seems that Luo Xiaojun Ji is OK, so the queen didn''t send anyone to tell her. "


    The Empress Dowager helped her forehead. "Look, it''s noisy today."


    Mother Su asked again, "beauty Wang, according to what you said, Miss Lin''s original goal was Miss Zhuo Xi? Luo Xiaojun Ji was just too enthusiastic and took the jade pendant first before she was poisoned? "


    Beauty Wang nodded gently.


    The Empress Dowager asked, "what about the damn Lin Zheng? What did she recruit? "


    Wang Meimei quickly replied, "I heard that after she entered the fifth punishment department last night and was punished for a quarter of an hour, she said that she loved Guang''an. Hou wanted to kill Miss Zhuo Xi because of jealousy and hatred. Then she bit her tongue and killed herself."


    "Eh, this yuan''er is so popular. Why didn''t AI family know anything before?" The Empress Dowager turned her head and smiled at mammy su.


    Beauty Wang''s face was deathly gray. "I know my mistake."


    The Empress Dowager said, "get up. Mother Su, hurry up and make a pot of flower tea first. That dead girl, it''s been a long time to send such a bag of tea. She doesn''t say to come to see AI family. Alas... "


    Mother Hua came over and took the tea bag in Wang Mei''s hand and said with a smile, "this girl still remembers you."


    Beauty Wang replied, "the girl was going to come in yesterday to greet the Empress Dowager. Unexpectedly, many things happened, which delayed her time. But this morning, the girl sent a letter saying that she happened to save a pregnant woman last night and bought some sheep. Seeing that the baby drank sheep''s milk very well, she wanted to send two in. She said that one was to replenish calcium for the Empress Dowager and the other was to replenish calcium for the child in the belly of the concubine. "


    Mammy Su was picking up a pot of boiling water to make tea. After hearing this, she looked happy. "This girl has a heart. She doesn''t forget the Empress Dowager."


    The Empress Dowager said strangely, "I often hear people say that if folk pregnant women lack milk, they can feed their babies with goat''s milk. Why can those who are old and weak at home drink this goat''s milk?"


    "The girl specially asked the messenger to say that this sheep''s milk is very beneficial to the frailty of the elderly''s leg bones. If there is milk, it would be better. You need to drink a bowl every day, and the leg bones will be strong."


    "Is that true? AI family has really felt that the leg bones can''t move in recent years. If so, take a sheep to the front yard to raise it. "


    How could beauty Wang miss such an opportunity, "although this sheep is small, it''s a little troublesome to keep it. How can it smoke the Empress Dowager? A cheap concubine is also raised, and a couple is also raised. My concubine wants to ask the Empress Dowager for a favor. If not, she will keep it together and bring it back after cooking every day, okay? "


    The Empress Dowager took a cup of tea made by mother Su and smiled, "I can''t see that you are still a talker. You have to work hard to deliver milk to the mourning family every day and ask for grace. Well, if you are well, come and greet you every day, and let the mourning family watch how your grandson grows up day by day. I don''t think I can see such a happy event for a few years. "


    Beauty Wang was overjoyed and knelt down and bowed down. "Thank you, Empress Dowager." She took out a piece of silk from her sleeve, "my concubine heard that my mother was devoted to Buddhism and was afraid that the bamboo Buddhist sutra was small and heavy, so she made a copy of the Shurangama Sutra. I just don''t know what kind of Sutra the Empress Dowager is used to reading every day? I wonder if I will be honored to copy Scriptures for my mother in the future? "


    The Empress Dowager nodded. Mammy Su came forward and opened the silk. In front of the empress dowager, the Empress Dowager said, "sure enough, the font silk is beautiful. It looks much easier. It''s milk delivery and Scripture copying. What do you want to say at the same time? " She just twisted the Buddha beads on her wrist twice in front of Zhuo Xi that day, which was seen by the girl? Needless to say, it must be the girl''s idea.


    Beauty Wang asked nervously, "my concubine copied the Shurangama Sutra recently. Although it is said that those who do not practice fasting are fasting and those who do not practice fasting are known to practice fasting, they only smell the fragrance of grapes and do not smell all the remaining fragrance... My concubine reads it every day and is respectful. Since the Buddhist family avoided meat and fish, the concubine wanted to ask the old ancestor''s grace to give her a stove, a set of pot utensils and bowls and chopsticks. She was far away from meat and fish and kept fasting. Now the concubine has one mind, only for the safe birth of the child in her belly, and she has no appetite in this life. "


    The Empress Dowager understood as soon as she heard that this was to prevent people outside from tampering with her diet. "The food in each palace was prepared by the public school and then sent. You are pregnant and cook sheep''s milk for the AI family... Well, the Ci''an palace of the AI family is far away from your chasing Feng palace, so I will give you stove utensils and two sets of pots and bowls. If you need to cook any complex food, Come to the small kitchen of AI family and let AI family touch your happiness. However, for the sake of your baby, you should not touch any meat or fish. You should pay attention to supplementary nutrition. "


    It''s a big deal to open a private kitchen in the palace. Beauty Wang didn''t hold much hope. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager agreed. She immediately worshipped again and said thank you.


    Suddenly there was a noise outside the door, "empress mother, empress mother..." a woman rushed in crying, "empress mother, you have to decide for your daughter."


    The Empress Dowager held her forehead and looked at mammy su. Her eyes clearly said, look, it''s coming.


    Mother Su hurried forward and held Jing Mo, "Oh, my Chang Ji Wang, what''s the matter with you?"


    Jing Mo knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager''s knee, "empress mother, my kite, why..."


    The Empress Dowager suddenly remembered something, pointed to mammy Su and said, "yes, let someone go to Bai''an palace to ask. Kite is very well now?"


    Mother Su blessed herself and went.


    The Empress Dowager stroked Jing Mo''s hair, "doesn''t it mean she''s all right?"


    Jing Mo cried, "yesterday, the queen sent someone to say that yuan''er just ate two cups and rested in Bai''an palace. I came to the palace to pick up yuan''er this morning, but I heard the palace people say that she was poisoned and nearly died! That damned Lin Zheng! " As soon as she turned her head, she saw the king beauty lying on the ground, rushed over and picked up her hair, "and you! If it weren''t for your birthday party, how could my Luo Yuan get hurt? "


    Wang Meimei also cried, "the concubine is guilty. Please punish the Empress Dowager."


    The Empress Dowager stopped and said, "well, Mo''er, yuan''er will come later. If it''s bad, you can spill it again. The king beauty now has Dragon Descendants. You should be careful. "


    Jing Mo looked at the Empress Dowager and beauty Wang. She let go of her hand and grew up in the palace since she was a child. She didn''t understand that this was the person the Empress Dowager wanted to protect. "Beauty Wang was frightened. The palace was in a hurry and hurt you."


    Beauty Wang said, "Chang Ji Wang, you are serious, not to mention that you love your daughter. Even yesterday''s concubine was very frightened. That''s why my concubine came to ask the Empress Dowager for forgiveness. "


    At this time, mother Su brought two people in. Aren''t they the queen sun Yao and Luo Yuan?


    Mother Su said to the empress dowager, "madam, the old slave came to the door and saw the queen and Xiaojun Ji come to greet you."


    Jing Mo jumped up early and touched it up and down.


    Sun Yao invited an to the Empress Dowager and said with a smile, "I''m worried about hurting my ancestors and Wang Changji. The palace was afraid that you two could not sleep, so we didn''t tell the truth in time. Yesterday, Doctor Wu fried medicine for Xiaojun Ji and took it twice. This morning, please take a pulse and say it''s all right. The palace was going to bring her here to invite an to the old ancestors, so they sent someone to send her back to the house. Unexpectedly, you have come here in person. "


    The Empress Dowager stretched out her hand to Luo Yuan, "come and let the mourners have a good look."


    Luo Yuan went forward, took the Empress Dowager''s hand and said coquettishly, "grandma, granddaughter is all right. That cousin Lin Zheng is so hateful that she hid an insect in the jade pendant. Fortunately, sister Zhuo Xi burned it with a fire folding son, or her granddaughter''s hand might be useless. "


    "Cousin? But the Lin Zheng of the Bolin family in Wu''an? "


    Sun Yao Yilin came forward and said, "it''s the eldest miss of Wu''an Bolin family. Yesterday, I wanted to interrogate her. Unexpectedly, when I arranged Xiaojun Ji and rushed to the fifth punishment division, she had committed suicide. According to the slave of the five punishments department, Miss Lin loved Guang''an Hou since she was a child. She temporarily made a bad intention because she saw Wu Yishi around Guang''an Hou. "


    The Empress Dowager raised her eyes and looked at her. The Lin family was the Queen''s mother family. She suddenly smiled and said, "queen, this is the first time for the palace election this year after Jing Jie ascended the throne?"


    Sun Yao hurriedly replied, "exactly."


    "I wonder how well it has been prepared?"


    "The list of primaries and portraits have been submitted to Bai''an palace. My concubine is sorting out and selecting. Since the 18th year of Shengwu, there has been no palace election in our country. This election is a great joy for the whole world. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled lightly, "what is the age of Lin Zheng? But in this palace list? "


    Sun Yao looked puzzled, thought about it and said, "I really don''t know my body. Because the palace election was held in central Beijing, the list of women in central Beijing was submitted the latest, and the remote poor counties were selected first. I''ve been reading page by page recently. I''ve only read 30% in the past ten days, lest I miss a good son. "


    "Since the queen is so busy, why don''t you let Mrs. Qin share it with you. Most of the women in Beijing are top-grade. Although most of us choose only palace maidservants and officials, there are also some beautiful people who can enter the king''s holy eye. The list and portraits of women in Beijing will be handed over to Mrs. Qin for preliminary selection. "


    Sun Yao''s face was stiff, so he bowed his head and said, "promise."


    "You go down first. Mrs. Qin''s side, the AI family will send someone to tell her. "


    "Promise." She tightened her teeth, took a look at the king and beauty lying on the ground, saluted and went down.


    "Mo''er, are you satisfied?" The Empress Dowager picked up the cup of flower tea and turned to Jing mo.


    Jing Mo glanced at beauty Wang, who had been silent all the time, and unconsciously gave her a high look, "empress mother, you cut her power in front of us. You want her to hate our mother and daughter, don''t you? "


    The Empress Dowager laughed and said, "daughter, do you think she won''t hate you if I don''t deal with her? This time she hurt yuan''er by mistake, so she knew that the relationship with Mo Changji''s house was difficult to repair. Although poor yuan''er blocked the disaster for girl Zhuo Xi, her friendship with that girl is destined to be a thorn in her eye. You mother and daughter, if you can''t go to the palace in the future, you can''t go to the palace. It seems that after the palace election, the harem will start to be restless. Alas, I''m too old to see these fights and killings. It''s hard to be a mother-in-law since ancient times. Jing Tai has always been weak under her knees. She will punish her great precepts and mourn for her unborn grandchildren in the future, so that she can have a chance to see the deep palace. "


    The king and beauty of the earth immediately burst into tears.


    Jing Mo didn''t understand anything. It was only because of Jing Yuan''s face that beauty Wang was protected. She turned her eyes and had an idea, "if the concubines above the beauty of the back Palace are pregnant, you can invite your mother''s sisters to accompany you in the palace. Jiayao, speaking of it, you should also call me aunt. Although sister Jing Ling is not the blood of the former king, she has grown up with the former king since childhood. She is the adopted daughter recognized by the Empress Dowager of Shengwu emperor. She has a deep relationship with the royal family. Although the generation is a little messy now, you and yuan''er should also be cousins. If you have any difficulties, you can complain to yuan''er. "


    Wang Jialin came over and cried, "aunt, Yao''er was wayward and ignorant before, and she was tired because her father was depressed, so she lightened her relationship with you. Yao''er is dead now. It''s really embarrassing for Yao''er to get such a sentence from you. In the future, if Yao''er has a chance, he will take the grass to repay his aunt''s great kindness. "


    Jing Mo helped her up. "Get up quickly. Although the old ancestor''s hall is as warm as spring, after all, you are pregnant and should not touch the cold ground for too long."


    Luo Yuan also came and said, "cousin, Yuan Er will often come to see you in the future. I tell you quietly that sister Zhuo Xi gave me three brocade bags yesterday and asked me to open them for you when you were four, six or nine months pregnant. "


    Wang Jialin had burst into tears and made another big gift with tears. "Thank your ancestors, aunt Xie and cousin Xie." She never thought that she should have such a great harvest today.


    The old lady came up from behind, "Zhuo Xi girl still has a brocade bag? When the time comes, the mourning family will help you. "


    Mammy Su burst out laughing behind her.

    For two days, Zhuo Xi prepared many things, ranging from needles and threads to tents, and even asked mother Wu to make a pair of boots according to the size of Jing Yuan.


    This is Zhuo Xi''s last night at Wu''s house. The old lady has sent someone to ask four times. Zhuo Xi''s answer is that she has fallen asleep. As a female official with a title, she doesn''t think she needs the approval of the old lady to go abroad. For her, the Wu family is just a place to recuperate temporarily. But the next day''s farewell can''t be ignored, otherwise the old lady will be sad.


    The next morning, Zhuo Xi woke up early. She tossed and turned all night. She seemed to have a shallow sleep in the middle of the night. Suddenly, she felt that her limbs were heavy, as if she was going to sink somewhere on the bottom of the sea and never woke up; Suddenly, I felt as if a voice was calling me, "Xi''er, Xi''er..." the soft ear whispered like insects drilling into her head. When those calls were woven into a fine net in her mind, she had no place to hide. So she sat up with a thrill.


    It wasn''t dawn yet, but she knew she couldn''t delay any more.


    The news brought by Wang Meimei can''t be ignored. Although she doesn''t have the heart in the legend, according to the current situation of Wang Meimei, what she said is probably true. Moreover, the uneasiness in his heart has not disappeared, not to mention that he was injured. It is a little strange that he can disappear in his jurisdiction. Besides, his injury was very strange. She remembered that there were only a few people close to him in the cabin that day and night. How could anyone hurt him when they were completely unprepared?


    The only people who can do this are those present.


    Among these people, except herself and Fengxin, others followed him to Liangzhou. Did... Thinking of this, she suddenly burst into a cold sweat. She quickly got up and dressed, but was surprised to find that the bedroom door couldn''t be opened. She snapped, "surprise! Surprise! "


    It was quiet outside and no one answered. She shouted again, "mother Wu! Mother Wu! " They are all in a hospital. In this quiet and cold morning, there is no reason not to hear.


    She suddenly understood and said coldly, "Xiao soul, come out!"


    A voice came cowardly, "madam, my subordinates know they can''t hide it from you."


    "Your purpose is to let me not go to Jing Yuan. Is this way too simple and rough?"


    "But it''s the most effective. My subordinates have a simple mind and can''t think of a more complex way."


    "You can trap me for a while, but you can''t lock me all my life. How can I stay in this house all the time?"


    "Mother Wu said, as long as you are trapped for a month. You can rest assured that your daily diet will be taken care of. A month will soon pass. "


    "Did mother Wu ask you to lock me? Why? Why a month? "


    Xiao soul was silent. Zhuo Xi saw her thin figure kneeling outside the door, "madam, I''m sorry."


    Zhuo Xi was silent, "I don''t blame you. After all, he is your master. Come on, surprise, is she okay? What have you done to her? " She dare not say you, because only Xiao soul is her personal dark guard, and others can only be her colleagues.


    Xiao soul was excited. She didn''t think so. She subconsciously classified herself and mother Wu, "madam, what can we do to her? Although Lord Hou is our original master, we all think you are a good master and really regard you as our master in recent months. But what about you? In your eyes, there are only startling words. For you, only startling words are your true confidants, right? But do you know that she... "


    "Shut up!" Mother Wu''s voice sounded from outside.

 Chapter 88

    Zhuo Xi saw her kneeling slowly outside the door. She knocked her head in the room and said, "madam, why do you have to say such words? The old slave asked himself, "I did my best to serve you and the marquis."


    Zhuo Xi bluffed, "why did mother Wu do this gift? Besides, I said, I''m not your wife. I''m just a small seven grade waiter in the Hou house. I can''t afford your big gift. " Speaking of this, she is always the most embarrassed. Although her relationship with Jing Yuan has become clear, can they make up so tall without thinking?


    Mother Wu said, "the old slave knows that you and the Marquis made a private contract for life that day. If the old slave only regards you as a servant of the Marquis, he doesn''t need to do this gift. More than 20 years ago, the old slave accompanied Xianru imperial concubine into the palace as a good family son. Before Xianru imperial concubine died, she had been a third grade executive. Now, although she is in the Marquis house, she is already a second grade executive in terms of rank. Looking at the whole country, there are only five palace female officials above the old slave''s rank. But the old slave knows that you are the person identified by the marquis. The LORD would rather pretend to be dead than coax you to worship heaven and earth with him. In the heart of the Lord, I''m afraid you are more important than his life. Why don''t you let your master and slave say so? At present, the old slave knows that he has been mishandled, but as long as this month is over, you and the marquis will be safe. The old slave can apologize for his death and go with Xianru concubine with a smile! "


    Zhuo Xi was silent for a long time, then slowly asked, "you already knew that the Marquis was missing, didn''t you?"


    "I believe that''s a cover up by the marquis. The Marquis said you must stay in Kyoto until the third day of March. Before that, you must not leave Kyoto for half a step. Before that, you had no intention of leaving Kyoto, and the old slave naturally did not need to restrict your movement; Now that you are determined to go south to Liangzhou, the old slave has to make such a bad decision. "


    Zhuo Xi thought through the whole story and took a breath, "so the old horse deliberately went the wrong way. Ke min appeared in front of my carriage with blood. Did you arrange it? The purpose is to tie my feet and make me inseparable from Kyoto? "


    Mother Wu smiled bitterly, "this is not the old slave''s. The young lady of the Wu family was driven out by the eldest lady shortly after giving birth. Therefore, she ran an embroidery and tailoring shop and had some friends with the old slave. I don''t know where she heard that madam, you have excellent medical skills. When she came to ask the old slave for help that day, the old slave just told her that you had entered the palace for a banquet and had not returned to the house, so she couldn''t wait to find you in front of the Palace door. I really have selfishness. I hope you can be busy with things in Kyoto and forget to go south, but I really don''t know she''s on the street... I really have a mistake. I shouldn''t let her go alone, resulting in extreme danger and nearly one body and two lives. Fortunately, you have a wonderful hand to revive, otherwise the old slave will die and not be redeemed. "


    Zhuo Xi was silent for a long time, sighed and said, "although I don''t know why it is a month, you really reminded me that the disappearance of the Marquis may be a cover up. Well, I promise you, it will be before March 3. So, can I have breakfast first? I''m hungry now. Just in time, mother Wu, you come in. I have something to tell you. "


    When mother Wu heard this, her heart dropped more than half. With a smile, she opened the door and came in. Zhuo Xi leaned over and said a word in her ear. Mother Wu was immediately overjoyed. She ordered Xiao soul to keep Zhuo Xi step by step, and hurried out to arrange.


    Zhuo Xi never thought that one day she would be stupid enough to pull such a big bright lie to wait to be exposed. In fact, she just wanted to find an excuse to let the wind come, so under the excited notification of mother Wu, the wind came soon.


    At this time, hyacinth was sitting opposite her. Zhuo Xi stretched out her wrist to let her take a pulse under her angry eyes. Mother Wu stood by and looked at them nervously. Zhuo Xi lowered her head very guilty.


    A moment later, the Fengxin took back his hand and said to mother Wu with a slight joy, "it''s really a happy event in the Hou house. Mrs. Wu, please go to the carriage and get a small cloth bag first. I left two small letters on the carriage when I came. I''ll write a prescription right now. You can fill the prescription when you come back. "


    Mother Wu went out happily.


    Zhuo Xi''s chin was about to fall out, so he had to hold his chin in his hand and curl his mouth, "Hey, he kept talking about me as his wife. In fact, you are more like her master than I am."


    The hyacinth picked up the teacup and said, "I''ve finished drinking jasmine tea there. Let Jingyan bring me some more bags and I''ll take them away when I leave."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "you go directly to my medicine room in the east of Furong house. I didn''t have time to bring out a lot of tea I made."


    Fengxin replied at this time, "trust between people should be cultivated bit by bit. You can deceive her with such a big thing, which shows that you subconsciously don''t believe her. On the contrary, it''s normal for her not to believe you. Come on, what''s the purpose of luring me here? "


    Zhuo Xi wailed, "you didn''t expose me? What is the purpose of your failure to expose me? "


    "Isn''t a good friend used to cover up at a critical time? Of course, the premise is that you have figured out the way to deal with the aftermath, which is not a trivial matter. If you dare to cover up the past by sliding the tire and make mother Wu sad, I will not let you go. " So the main reason why she didn''t expose her was that she was afraid of mother Wu''s disappointment. She grew up in Hou''s house since childhood. Mother Wu treated her like a mother.


    Zhuo Xi had no time to figure out these joints, and his eyes lit up, "are you sure you want to help me escape from Kyoto?"


    The hyacinth sneered, "of course, if you don''t go to Liangzhou, I can help you find a wild man to help you get pregnant. You always have to fake it."


    "Go, go, must go." Zhuo Xi Da Le, "but I''d like to know why it''s March 3?"


    "Because that''s the day when senior brother agreed to come back with us. On that day, he will do a big thing. Although I don''t know what the big deal is, I think he asked mother Wu to leave you in Kyoto, perhaps just to wait for this to happen. "


    "Don''t you even know?" Zhuo Xi pondered, "there is news that Jing Yuan is missing. What do you think?"


    The hyacinth nodded, "it may be true."


    "Is it possible? You are not in the dark guard system around Jing Yuan? "


    Feng Xin looked at her strangely, "I''m his younger martial brother, er, younger martial sister. How can I join the dark guard team?"


    Zhuo Xi stifled. "I thought you might be in charge of the dark guard, or at least you would be related."


    The hyacinth smiled faintly, "since the first World War of wansha City, senior brother didn''t allow me to participate in all the fighting around him. So in recent years, I haven''t done anything except looking for an antidote for him. You see, he didn''t even inform me of such a big war except the eve. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "he took you as his family. I hope you are well and don''t participate in dangerous things. But now that I''m here, I''ll take risks for you. You''re just helping me. It''s not against his will. "


    The hyacinth snorted and asked, "do you have anything to bring?"


    Zhuo Xi didn''t react and asked in amazement, "do you mean to go now?"


    Hyacinth was impatient. "When else will you wait?"


    "Shouldn''t we wait until the moon is dark and the wind is high..."


    Occasionally, I can see a few carriages flying on the grass on the side of the road. She still can''t believe that she was locked in the house in the morning and swaggered out of Kyoto in an instant?


    Cars are hyacinth, horses are hyacinth, and even the old grandson of the groom is hyacinth. Fengxin said to Wu''s mother lightly, "go back to Hou''s house and keep it." Mother Wu went to prepare happily. Then surprised Yan appeared on the carriage with a big burden. Then they turned a corner on the way to Hou''s house and went straight out of the city.


    The car rumbled forward, and Zhuo Xi, who sat on the car, actually had no bottom in his heart. Apart from Liangzhou, she knew nothing about what was going to happen on the road ahead and the people she would meet. On my side, there is only one maid, a coachman and the ubiquitous Xiao soul. This time she was very surprised at Xiao soul''s silent follow. If it hadn''t been for Wu''s mother''s permission, the girl could not move with one finger. But why did mother Wu agree?


    In the car, he leaned against the window with a warm hand stove and looked blankly. Zhuo Xi was not interested in talking at all. Hands, hands, she suddenly felt that she had been in this world for so long. What she lacked most was hands. I thought the secret guards of the feather gate could be used for themselves, but they were all sent to open branches. All the prepared materials were not brought out. Fortunately, Jingyan has always been in the habit of hiding silver with him and is ready to buy some temporarily on the road. Although Xiao''s soul circle banned him for a long time, his things were not searched.


    Just out of Kyoto, Zhuo Xi let the coachman Lao sun bypass to the verdant mountain.


    When you get near Huling villa in cangcui mountain, you don''t dare to drive there. Now a group of people and horses have been changed to guard, and Zhuo Xi is not sure about the temperament of the people guarding now. So she got out of the car outside the patrol area of the villa, took out Xiaobai in her sleeve pocket and whispered to it, "Xiaobai, lead the way to Uncle Ma and them."


    Startled words followed her, followed Xiaobai''s winding twists and turns, and turned into the mine.


    The verdant mountains in winter are no longer lush, and the wild fruits and herbs are obviously less. However, when she saw some familiar withered yellow herbs or herbs using their roots, she dialed them easily, handed them to the surprised words behind her, and quietly explained the medicinal methods to her.


    Zhuo Xi saw that she was coming to the hole, wiped her hands full of soil, took out a token from her arms and held it in front of her.


    Surprised Yan took a skirt of herbs with his skirt, finally found the gap and asked, "Miss, is this?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "token." It was put into her arms before she left. Although I don''t know what use it is, it''s better to take it out to scare people.


    Sure enough, two people in black floated down at the entrance of the mine. They were startled and left the herbs to block forward. Zhuo Xi stopped her and sent the token in front of them. Miraculously, the two men in black actually saluted them with fists, and then made an invitation gesture.


    Zhuo Xi endured the cheers in her heart and shouted to the surprised words, "pick up the herbs on the ground and wait here!"


    Surprised and wronged, he squatted down and slowly picked up the dead branches and yellow roots.


    Zhuo Xi, with a short body, went into the mine from the middle of the withered and yellow Teng strips in front of the cave door, and put the little white coiled at the cave entrance into his sleeve.


    There were still people coming and going in the cave, but it was silent. No soldiers urged with whips, nor did they laugh and scold. Working in the kitchen nearest to the entrance to the cave, zhenniang saw a familiar figure looking around and quickly said, "girl, girl!"


    Zhuo Xi took two steps and went to the kitchen that had been roughly built with four walls to keep out the wind and rain. The kitchen was no longer a simple shed, but also built an earth house behind it. It looked a bit like a warehouse. She smiled and asked, "how are you recently, zhenniang?"


    Jen Niang poured a bowl of water, "all right, all right. The girl came all the way. Let''s have a drink first. "


    Zhuo Xi took the water and saw that her stomach was small, so she smiled and asked, "Congratulations, Mrs. Ma, how many months?"


    Jen Niang smiled, "thanks to the girl, I have been here for four months. Xiao Lin, would you please go to the workshop and invite Ma San here? " She turned her head and shouted to the back of the kitchen.

 Chapter 89

    Zhuo Xi saw a dark little girl coming from behind the door and quickly jumping out of the front door.


    "What about the others?" Zhuo Xi asked with a smile.


    Jen Niang was a little shy. "My family and Ma San are both good, and so are the people who used to change craftsman''s status together. The new group of craftsmen were also very kind to the new slaves. They didn''t need to supervise or beat and scold. Everyone was very conscious. Now the food is better. It is no longer eating bran pharyngeal vegetables. There is meat and japonica rice every month. Miss, the stone mill you taught Ma Sanzao is really good. I grind the wheat that no one eats. The pasta is very delicious. They all like it very much. Just because there were so many people, I was a little busy alone, so I asked Xiao Lin to help. "


    As soon as she said it, she was almost finished. Zhuo Xi quickly took zhenniang''s hand and said, "zhenniang, I don''t know if the double-sided purse I sent you to embroider for me years ago has been embroidered?"


    Zhen Niang immediately woke up and replied, "I dare not neglect what the girl told me. Just a moment, girl. I''ll get it now."


    Ma San ran quickly, followed by several brothers, panting, and would salute her when he came. Zhuo Xi hurriedly held him, "Uncle Ma, what are you doing?! I''m just passing by and coming in to see my old friends. "


    "I will never forget your kindness." Ma San and the other brothers said together. Soon some people came back one after another.


    Zhuo Xi raised her face, "if you say this again, you''ll disappear in the future!"


    Ma San quickly arched his hands and said, "don''t be angry, girl. Ma San won''t say it again. It''s rare for a girl to remember her brothers here. Unfortunately, I didn''t have a holiday until the new year. I had to send a new year gift to Hou''s house. I hope Hou and the girl are all right. By the way, how is the Marquis? "


    Zhuo Xi replied, "Lord Hou is now in command and has gone to Liangzhou. I have received all your gifts. Although the Marquis house also arranged a return gift years ago, I came out in a hurry today. I didn''t have time to prepare. Only some external wound medicines I recently developed. You keep them when you need them. " She took out a packet of powder and handed it to Ma San.


    Ma San said gratefully, "everything here is good. It''s just that it''s hard to find external wound medicine. Sometimes the brothers accidentally scalded their hands and feet, and there is no medicine available. They don''t think it''s too cumbersome to apply to the top. They don''t want to miss their working hours, so they have to be injured. This medicine is very practical. Thank you, girl. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it doesn''t hurt. I''m relieved to see you all well. Uncle Mo still wants to catch up with them. That won''t pay. "


    At this time, zhenniang had taken her purse and handed it to Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi took it and looked carefully and said with a smile, "zhenniang''s double-sided embroidery is really a unique skill. I''ll study with you another day. Today, I''m in a hurry to go south to Liangzhou to find the Marquis, and I can''t stay long. I''ll leave now. "


    Ma San nodded gently, "girl, go slowly. Green mountains, green waters and long streams. "


    Before Zhuo Xi left, she pulled off the curtain cloth on the side of the kitchen, casually said "lend me a use" and went out of the cave. She saw that Jingyan was sorting out the herbs just picked and patting off the soil at the root. Zhuo Xi threw the curtain cloth to her, "wrap them up first. Let''s go to the mountain and pick some more. "


    Surprised Yan hurriedly wrapped them up and hurried to follow Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi picked all the way, sometimes directing Jing Yan to pick on a prominent cliff. They walked all the way to a mountain stream, gradually approaching, the water surface became wider and wider, and the gurgling sound gradually turned into a loud noise. Surprised, he looked up and saw a waterfall on the other side of the mountain stream. Zhuo Xi smiled, made a gesture, and saw Xiao soul flash and appear on Zhuo Xi''s side.


    Zhuo Xi hooked her finger and said loudly, "there is a kind of water lotus under the waterfall, which has the most healing effect. Your lightness skill is good. Can you take me down with you? As long as we pick it, we can go back. "


    Xiao soul flew up the tree, took a look at the waterfall and flew down again. He smiled and said, "it seems that there are several flowers and plants growing at the bottom of the waterfall. The waterfall is only more than three feet. For safety, we can take you down together."


    She nodded to surprised Yan, and then took Zhuo Xi in one hand and flew down the waterfall together.


    Zhuo Xi pinched Jing Yan''s hand in the middle of the way. Jing Yan felt pain. Ah, she loosened her hand and grabbed the cane hanging from the rock wall with her backhand. Xiao soul had already grabbed a cane in his hand. Seeing this, he immediately made a force on his hand and swung in behind the water curtain with Zhuo Xi. Startled, Jingyan quickly grabbed the cane and jumped up, jumping in behind the water curtain.


    Zhuo Xi went into the cave, patted the drops of water on his body, pointed to the burden on Jing Yan''s hand and said, "Jing Yan, pour out the herbs there."


    Startled, he asked suspiciously, "Miss, why is this?" But without stopping, he emptied all the herbs inside.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t answer. He looked around the cave. There was a pile of very obvious dry sand next to a rock wall. Zhuo Xi pulled away from it, and sure enough, she touched what she wanted. Surprised speech and Xiao soul stared at her, taking out one black thing after another from the sand and putting it on the curtain. Fortunately, the curtain cloth is thick and can not be scratched easily. Zhuo Xi then grabbed some herbs and stuffed them in the gap. Finally, he beat the curtain into a bundle, carried it, and immediately pushed it to Jingyan. "This kind of physical work is better for you people who have kung fu."


    Surprised Yan grabbed the heavy burden and said with a smile, "it''s not heavy. Naturally, it''s for slaves to carry." It means she carries it on her back, so people can''t see the light and heavy.


    "Let''s go quickly. I''m afraid Lao sun has to wait."


    The three quickly got out of the hole and soon returned to the carriage.


    Zhuo Xi sat down, took out Xiaobai and let him sleep on one side. Then she carefully opened the package and looked at the parts in her eyes with joy. This is the standard part she secretly asked Ma San to build according to the plan. I don''t know what method he used. He can find such a remote place to store it without hiding so many eyes in the mine. Xiao soul was also very curious and followed in. Seeing that Zhuo Xi had no objection, he sat down at ease, picked up a small triangular arrow at the bottom of the burden and looked at it carefully. Since the young lady already knows her existence, it''s no fun to hide it.


    Zhuo Xi assembled those parts and took out a small burden from under the table. It was actually a bow string made of ox tendons. She tied the bow string up, tried the length, and finally cut off the long string, which was a small bow and crossbow. She stuck the three edged arrow in one of the arrow slots and aimed at Jingyan.


    He hugged his head with an "ah" sound.


    Xiao soul looked at the new weapon in surprise, "master, can you let me try?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and handed over the crossbow. "You see, if you button this button, you will launch a single arrow. If you button this button, you will launch three arrows at once."


    Xiao soul excitedly raised the crossbow, lifted a corner of the car curtain, and the three edged arrow shot out silently. Then she also flew out. Surprised, he immediately flew out.


    Zhuo Xi took a look, picked up the parts on the ground and assembled them again.


    "Ah..." a scream came.


    Zhuo Xi stood up in surprise and shot someone? Wouldn''t it be such a coincidence? Or did they both meet an ambush? Attacked? She quickly shouted, "Lao sun, stop."


    Old sun turned his head and said with a smile, "it doesn''t matter, miss. They just met an old friend. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "can''t you see, Lao sun, you''re still a secret?"


    Lao Sun said with a smile, "don''t tell me, miss. You don''t know. If you want to work in Hou''s house, if you don''t know some tripod Kung Fu, you don''t mean to send a deed of betrayal." He listened and said, "don''t worry, miss. They''re coming."


    Sure enough, after a while, there were several empty sounds, and the startled words flew into the carriage first. Then, instead of one person, three people were connected and catapulted into the carriage like a ball. Zhuo Xi twisted the body that was turning sideways due to avoidance. When she looked carefully, it was not Xiao soul, but Xiao Li, Xiao Ji and Xiao Guai.


    She immediately flew into a rage, "what are you doing here?! What about the Yangsheng hall? "


    Xiao Li said with a smile, "Miss, sister Ke Min has woke up and raised for many days. Hearing that the miss is going away, she immediately kicked us out."


    Zhuo Xi scolded angrily, "she kicked you out and you came out? Who is in charge of the Yangshengtang? "


    Xiao Li''s smile was stiff. "Don''t be angry, miss. Sister Ke min is very powerful. When she lies in bed, she arranges all the matters in the whole sanatorium. He also said, "let''s follow you and we won''t miss the great joy of opening next month."


    Jing Yan also advised, "Miss, sister Ke min used to live in Nandi with the rich businessman of the Wu family for many years, and she was in charge of a big stall at home in Nandi. This time, I came back to the main house in Kyoto because I was pregnant. Unexpectedly, I met a more powerful mistress, and this happened. You have no doubt about her ability. "


    Xiao Ji quickly handed over a sheepskin envelope. "This is her letter to you. You can scold us after reading it. But if you want to drive us away, we won''t go anyway. "


    Zhuo Xi calmed her anger a little. While taking the envelope and opening the lacquer on it, she scolded, "you kids, don''t care about the hard work of the woman in confinement. She just came back from the gate of hell and dared to let her teach the group of skin monkeys! What''s more, there''s the little boy... "


    She suddenly couldn''t go on. She looked at the letter carefully, and a smile slowly appeared on her face.


    Little darling moved over and hugged her arm, "sister is not angry. Although our martial arts are not as good as sister Jingyan, I don''t say we can help, but it won''t be your burden. We''ve never had a chance to go out for a walk. It''s just like going sightseeing. "


    Surprised speech hit her on the head, "it''s all said that you should call Miss outside, not sister."


    Little darling stuck out his tongue.


    Zhuo Xi scraped her nose. "Well, you guys are more lively all the way. The surprised speech is a muggy gourd. It doesn''t sound until you knock. Forget it. If you come, you can rest assured. Come up. " Several people got on the carriage obediently, and Xiao Li even brought her simple medicine box in xiangsanfang. She couldn''t help praising her intelligence.

 Chapter 90

    Several people sat down, but Xiao Li picked up the short three edged arrow just picked up on the ground, looked at it carefully and asked, "Miss, is this...?"


    Zhuo Xi remembered, "where''s Xiao soul?"


    A voice sounded stiffly from the roof, "my subordinates are here."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "come in. Isn''t it cold on the roof?"


    "My subordinates are not cold." The voice is still cold.


    Zhuo Xi knew that she was in a mood. As soon as she was in a mood, she claimed to be her subordinate. She didn''t know who to show her temper, so she coughed, "pick up all the trigonous arrows you just took out and sit in the carriage. This is an order."


    A figure slowly floated in from the door of the car.


    Zhuo Xi motioned her to sit down. The carriage was originally for six people. Now it is full, and the pile of parts on the small table in the middle is very eye-catching. Zhuo Xi motioned to the crossbow in her hand.


    Xiao soul immediately looked greatly, "master, this strange bow is powerful! Generally, the range of bow and arrow is up to 30 steps. This strange bow has a range of 80 steps and can shoot three arrows at the same time! "


    The others exclaimed, "Eighty steps! Three arrows at the same time! " Everyone stared at Zhuo Xi with burning eyes.


    Zhuo Xi said disappointed, "only eighty steps?!" As far as she knows, the range of the strongest crossbow can reach 600 steps. It seems that it needs to be studied and improved.


    Everyone exclaimed, "only eighty steps?!"


    Zhuo Xi had to chuckle and didn''t explain, but said, "surprised speech, Xiao soul, you two have just seen my assembly process, but do you remember the method?"


    Xiao soul confidently lay down in front of the short table, picked up a crossbow body, installed the crossbow arm, skillfully fastened the crossbow machine and bowstring, and then handed it to Zhuo Xi, "master, do you think so?"


    Zhuo Xi exclaimed, "little soul, you have a lot of research on weapons?" He pulled the bowstrings on both sides and adjusted the length.


    Xiao soul blushed. "My subordinates have been practicing martial arts since childhood. They sit among the trees all day. In addition to studying the cicada''s cry for five long and two short, they study all the weapons they can meet. Just now, I''ll see you again. "


    Zhuo Xi leaned back and put all the parts in front of the table forward. "In that case, you can teach them how to assemble the crossbow. Look at your action, you can''t fall down."


    The other girls cried excitedly, and immediately chattered, "so this is called a crossbow? Sure enough, it''s very similar. "


    "Eighty steps is not far enough? Miss means you can shoot further? "


    "It''s possible. We might as well try adjusting the length of the bow string."


    "How many arrows are there?"


    "How many arrows can a crossbow match?"


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi listened to their lively voice, and finally found a little sense of sureness in her empty and worried heart for days. She was relaxed and sleepy, so she sat and lay down and fell asleep.


    When Zhuo Xi woke up, he heard that the carriage had stopped in a busy place. She opened her eyes and the other five girls in the car stared at her. She was startled. "Why?"


    "Miss, you finally wake up." Xiao Li held her hand and tears were about to overflow from her eyes.


    "I just slept. What''s your expression?"


    Jing Yan quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hand and said with a strong smile, "Miss, I told them you just fell asleep. They don''t believe it. That''s good. Are you hungry? Shall we go out to dinner? "


    Zhuo Xi stretched out, looked at their red eyes and joked, "what a group of children. Let''s go. I''m so hungry. Let''s eat! Why don''t you wake me up? " As he spoke, he got off the bus.


    Only Xiao soul, with no expression on his face, took the lead in opening the curtain and propped the curtain at the door to let Zhuo Xi down.


    It was in the evening. It was estimated that he had slept for a long time. When Zhuo Xi got off the bus, he was unsteady and was quickly held by Xiao soul behind him. She looked up at the bloody sunset at the end of the street, blinked, put her hand on her forehead, and saw that it was the street of a small town. Pedestrians are walking in a hurry, and there are several stalls on the street making the last call. A three-year-old child followed a man carrying a stall with his snot, stumbling forward, shouting "a Niang, a Niang."


    Next to a small shop, a huge word "wine" hung in the wind, and a shop door creaked slightly with the wind. A waiter who was tidying up his tables and chairs saw Zhuo Xi and others looking at him. He immediately went out and asked enthusiastically, "my guest, are you top or stay in the hotel?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the word "Laifu inn" on her head and said with a smile, "it''s a hotel naturally. Can there be four upper rooms? "


    Xiao er''s face smiled more and more brightly, "yes, come with me."


    They raised their feet and followed the waiter into the inn. Zhuo Xi ordered Xiao soul to live in the same room. She was surprised to say that she wanted to object. Seeing Xiao soul''s cold face, she had to whisper. The other two had one room, and Lao sun lived alone.


    After a short rest, they went to the lobby to prepare for dinner.


    The lobby was rather deserted. Only a few people sat in a far corner to eat. It was so quiet that there was no sound. Zhuo Xi glanced at him casually. He saw that the person sitting above seemed to be a woman. Because of the distance, he didn''t care much.


    Zhuo Xi sat alone in front of the table and ordered the dishes. Only then did he find that the front was empty. After another sweep, everyone stood behind him and turned his eyes. "What do you mean? Deliberately make me unable to eat? "


    The others looked at each other and dared not answer. She added, "sit down. You don''t have to sit at the same table in the carriage. You have to divide the table for dinner. Sit down. There are not so many rules. " All the talents slowly sat down, and the waiter immediately sent the dishes. Without saying anything, Zhuo Xi picked up the rough chopsticks and took the first course, saying "eat and eat." She didn''t know why she felt extremely hungry in her stomach, as if she hadn''t eaten for days. Looking at the long, thin and flat "bamboo" in his hand, he frowned. Good chopsticks were cut into this flat bamboo shape, which is really inconvenient. But it was the best chopsticks she had ever seen. At that time, in the verdant mountain, the slaves used only slightly straight branches they picked up at random, peeled and cut into appropriate lengths. The "bamboo chopsticks" used in Hou''s house were made of bronze. They were heavy and slippery. Under her repeated protests, the craftsmen finally cut round bamboo chopsticks. Now I hurried out and forgot to bring some pairs. Let''s take a look at the other people''s fork. Fortunately, the bamboo chopsticks are easy to make. If you have the opportunity to cut two on the road, you can do it.


    After dinner, Zhuo Xi returned to the room, called hot water in, washed her whole body comfortably, and then lay in bed. Listen, Xiao soul also took a quick bath, dried his hair, cleaned it up, blew out the wax candle and lay on another bed.


    In the dark, Zhuo Xi suddenly said, "Xiao soul, how many hours have I slept in front?"


    Xiao soul was surprised, "master, it didn''t take long for you to sleep a little more. Those girls don''t take care of themselves. It''s just that they see more and more strange. "


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "but the mouth grows on others. Do you really think I didn''t hear it? The shopkeeper chatted with the waiter that the carriage had stopped at the corner all day and night. If I can sleep all day and night without sleep, there must be something wrong with me. Since Xiaobai didn''t warn me, I wasn''t poisoned. You must know what''s wrong with me. "


    Xiao soul tightly pursed his mouth and said nothing.


    Zhuo Xi said, "in fact, I knew for a long time that what you doubted was Jingyan. That''s why I chose to share the same room with you today. Tell me, when did you start doubting her? Why doubt her? "


    Xiao soul was silent for a long time. Until Zhuo Xi thought she was asleep, she heard her whisper, "master, you have indeed slept for more than ten hours. My subordinates are really suspicious and surprised, but there is no real evidence, and my subordinates are hard to say anything. Along the way, we will be more careful of her. As for your physical condition, to tell you the truth, my subordinates really don''t know. The hyacinth childe only said that you are different from ordinary people when you sleep. There is no difference at other times. Just take care of you when you sleep. "


    Zhuo Xi was silent for a long time and sighed, "if you want to test the surprised words, it''s also a very simple thing. You just... "


    Xiao Hun hurriedly turned over and got out of bed, regardless of kneeling on the ground in his pajamas. "Master, even if my subordinates want to find out the details of their startling words, they will never bet on your safety. My subordinates have been staring at her for the past two days. Although you fell asleep, she seems to know it well and didn''t show great anxiety. She just believes that you are just asleep and don''t see anything different from her. She just keeps watch over you. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "get up first and hide under the quilt quickly. It''s chilly in spring. Although it''s warmer to go south, it''s still very cold. Now that I know, I have a problem in my heart. Don''t worry. Naturally, I won''t joke about my life. Let''s have a look. "


    "Promise!" Xiao soul turned over and hid in the quilt.


    "So, do you know where they are now?"


    Xiao soul nodded and thought that she might not see her actions, so he said, "my subordinates know that they have been working in Qingyun town near forgetting cliff. In the past ten days, they have searched the place within a hundred miles at the bottom of the cliff."


    Zhuo Xi asked, "I haven''t asked. Was he seriously injured the day he left Beijing?"


    Xiao soul replied, "my subordinates don''t know. When Hou Ye left Beijing, he rode out of Beijing. On the surface, it looks like ordinary people. People who don''t know can''t remember his injury. "


    Can you ride a horse? Zhuo Xi could not help holding her hand. "Tell me what happened? How did the Marquis fall to the bottom of the cliff? "


    "The Marquis left Beijing injured that day in order not to give anyone a chance to leave him. However, according to the news from the dark guard, the people of the prison yuan gate failed to hit the day before yesterday. The next day, they followed the Marquis all the way south, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack. Originally, Ziran they have been closely guarded to prevent them from having a chance. Unexpectedly, on that day, it seemed that in order to save an old friend, the Marquis went to the forgetting cliff alone. He was ambushed and fell off the cliff. His whereabouts were unknown. "


    "Old friend?"


    "The dark guards didn''t find out. They only knew that there was a short arrow that day, nailing a note and a jade pendant to a tree passed by the carriage. When the Marquis saw the note and jade pendant, he didn''t say a word. That night, Zi Ran found that the Marquis was missing. He followed the clues left by the Marquis all the way before he took people to the edge of the forgetting cliff. But they were a step late and watched the Marquis fall from the top of the cliff. "


    "But did you see others?" Zhuo Xi tightened her heart.


    "There were several people in black at the prison gate. Zi Ran fought with them and escaped one. The rest committed suicide on the spot. No clue. Since then, Zi Ran searched at the bottom of the cliff every day, and there was no trace. They also touched the cliff from the hanging rope at the top of the cliff and walked at the bottom of the cliff, but so far they haven''t found anything. "


    Zhuo Xi''s mind turned quickly, and then gave an order, "Xiao soul, send a message to the dark guards of the marquis. There''s no need to look around the forgetting cliff. Draw me a map of Qingyun town and its surrounding terrain, especially the route from Qingyun town to forgetting cliff and the route from Qingyun town to Liangzhou. We will leave for Qingyun town tomorrow. "

 Chapter 91

    The next day, after eating breakfast, they went out of the inn refreshed, bought some necessary supplies in the town, and continued to drive to Liangzhou. Zhuo Xi also wrote a letter to Ke min in the gap between them.


    Zhuo Xi sat in the carriage, assigned one of the assembled crossbows to each person, and briefly taught them how to use them. There were about ten left, all hidden under the seats.


    When he had a rest on the way, Lao sun deliberately parked his carriage beside a forest.


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was a good place. He first put Xiaobai out to look for food and wander around. Then he found a big Sunny Stone to sit down. He watched the girls go to the forest with a bow in their hands and explained that they remembered to take back the three edged arrows shot out, so he went to one side and folded two thin bamboo branches to cut chopsticks.


    Lao sun also went into the forest. He quickly grabbed the ears of a gray rabbit and grabbed it in front of Zhuo Xi. Without saying a word, he went back into the forest. After a while, another pheasant was left.


    When he left an animal that looked like a badger for the third time, Zhuo Xi called him, "Lao sun, if you continue to do so, it is estimated that the hibernating bear will be arched out by you."


    Lao sun hehe smiled and rubbed his hands up, looking very hard to say.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Lao sun, I know you are all arranged by the Marquis to protect me. Since we need to be armed, how can we lose your share? You must have never seen that crossbow. Go and get it from the carriage. Three shuttle arrows and bows are under the seat. You must remember to pick up the arrows you have used up. First, we now have a limited number of arrows, which can not be wasted; Second, the three edged arrow is also a new weapon. Don''t be easily picked up. "


    Lao sun grinned and flew into the carriage. He heard her explanation all the way. He had been itching for a long time, but he couldn''t move without her command. Now that I have her password, where can I delay for a moment?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t even have a chance to demonstrate to him, so she saw him swish into the woods again. She looked around and always felt that there was an eye staring darkly behind her. It''s strange that Xiao''s soul has appeared in the light. Can''t he send dark guards to follow him?


    When everyone came back and gathered, it clearly reflected the great differences in the way of thinking between men and women: Xiao Li held a three edged arrow in one hand and several fruits in the other hand. Only Xiao soul carried a fish in his hand. It seemed that he went to the water and filled the water bag by the way; Lao sun was covered with blood. He carried a thin and long fox on his shoulder. One hand was full of rabbits, and the other hand was actually holding a hedgehog. I don''t know how he avoided the thorns.


    They piled all the booty in front of Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi looked anxiously at the sky. God, it''s for them to try arrows, not for them to hunt.


    Only Lao Sun said excitedly, "master, although my Lao sun has left the army for several years, his hands are not unfamiliar with sharp weapons. As soon as I installed the bow, I immediately knew that the crossbow had a range of at least 100 steps. Good guy, hey hey, look at the fox. You don''t hide when you see me coming from a distance. You think I can''t shoot it. As a result, I loaded an arrow and shot it in the head as soon as I raised my hand. This thing is fast and doesn''t miss its head when it''s far away. On the contrary, it''s easier to aim than an ordinary bow and arrow. It''s really a good thing! "


    Xiao soul brushed his lips contemptuously, "you''re only a hundred steps? In my hand, I tightened the bowstring and pulled the base closer. Today, I actually shot nearly 120 steps! "


    The others were surprised and gathered around to see the crossbow in her hand.


    Zhuo Xi listened to them finish, blew the two round bamboo chopsticks in her hand and stood up.


    A gust of wind blew through the woods and the leaves fell from the nearby trees. Lao sun suddenly looked up to the east of the forest, where a group of black jackdaws suddenly flew up. He immediately became vigilant, loaded the crossbow with arrows, stared warily at the place, lowered his voice and said, "master, someone is coming, Xiao soul, protect the master to the carriage first."


    Everyone is alert. Zhuo Xi retreated slowly in their encirclement. It must be dangerous all the way south, and she knows it. She thought it was the kindness of the enemy that they could let them stay safely in Qianshi town for two days and two nights. That''s why she went around the verdant mountain to get the crossbow when she left Kyoto, and soon let these people around her learn how to use it.


    I just don''t know how many people the other party can send. There is a serious shortage of manpower on my side. Although there are crossbows, after all, the number of manpower and crossbows are very limited.


    Soon there was a clear movement in the dead leaves of the forest nearest to them. After listening for a while, Lao sun immediately fired three crossbows installed on the crossbow. Soon I heard two crisp sounds and one dull sound, and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. Then there was no more movement in the woods.


    After waiting for a long time, Zhuo Xi asked suspiciously, "just one person?"


    Lao Sun said carefully, "master, please wait here. I''ll have a look first. If the enemy deceives, you will protect the master and leave first! " The latter sentence he said to Xiao soul.


    "Come back!" Zhuo Xi shouted, "there are seven of us now, none of us can be less! In any case, they either live together or die together. Now that they are silent, let''s just go. Go! " With that, she took the lead in walking to the carriage behind.


    The people behind them were filled with emotion, especially when the sentence "live together or die together" came out, they couldn''t help shaking their bodies and seeing each other shocked in each other''s eyes. Lao sun couldn''t say anything, so he raised his feet and walked out with Zhuo Xi.


    But without taking two steps, there was a faint curse in everyone''s ears, "witch!" They also seemed to hear the sound of heavy footsteps on the fallen leaves.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help stopping and said with a smile, "eh? Some people have called me a bitch and others have called me a fool. The title of witch is the first time. It sounds new. "


    Xiao soul said, "master, I dare not be inspired by him. Who knows what kind of ambush there is in the forest. We''d better go first. "


    Zhuo Xi thought, nodded and said with a smile, "that''s very true. Let''s withdraw. "


    They continued to walk towards the carriage. Three feet away from the carriage, they heard a sticky voice in the carriage laughing, "tut Tut, what a woman is most afraid of is being crowned with the name of a witch. Can you resist it?"


    All the people were surprised, and Lao sun beat them first, "who is it?"


    Zhuo Xi was also surprised. Xiao soul in them was the woman with the best martial arts she had ever seen except hyacinth. Her surprised words were not weak. Others looked no worse. This man sneaked into their carriage silently?


    No answer.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help asking, "who is it, please? Old friend? enemy? Or a stranger? "


    "Since I''m in the carriage, I don''t intend to go down. If you ask me who I am, I''ll know when I come up. " The voice smiled softly.


    "What do you want, young master?" Xiao Li asked in a deep voice.


    There was no sound again, as if disdaining words with it.


    Zhuo Xi understood, stepped forward and said, "BMW carved cars are fragrant all over the road, which is the best scenery in the southwest. You must also know that this incense cart is used by six weak women of my master and servant to enjoy flowers and scenery all the way. It''s really inconvenient to hide a big man. If you don''t dislike it, there must be a small town ahead. How about hiring another luxury car for you? "


    The voice inside said again, "it''s easy to enjoy the flowers and scenery. There''s a young master''s Baoma Xiangche hundreds of steps ahead. If the girl doesn''t mind, how about we exchange it?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it doesn''t hurt if we fall on weekdays, but we have prepared for a long journey and naturally prepared many clothes and fruits for women. Childe, it should be the same. If you change cars and horses at will, I''m afraid it''s just as inconvenient. "


    "No, No. Especially when I see this strange bow and arrow, I feel very convenient. Eh? " Said the man inside.


    Zhuo Xi and Xiao soul changed color together, and all picked up their bows and crossbows and aimed them at the carriage.


    Before they were in trouble, they saw a dark figure jump into the carriage. Inside, a black and a white figure quickly hit and shot into the air from the roof, and continued to fight and entangle in the air. Everyone took a breath. They were attracted by the people in the car, but they didn''t expect that the man in the forest leaned up quietly and flew into the carriage quickly. But they''re not the same people? Why did you fight directly? Zhuo Xi is full of black lines. What''s the situation?


    I saw that the black and white figures had passed more than 30 moves in the short process of rising and falling. It was obvious that the man in black wanted to rob the bow and crossbow in the hand of the man in white, but the man in white didn''t give in at all.


    Zhuo Xi and others watched them fight hard after a hundred moves. Finally, the two were panting and separated on both sides. When they saw their faces, Xiao Li and others took a breath together.


    The two men were black and white, with floating clothes and beautiful faces. The man in white has soft facial features, white skin, red lips and Dark Jade eyes. At this time, he is putting the bow and crossbow in front of him with one hand and behind him with the other back. It looks leisurely and complacent. It is completely different from having just fought hundreds of rounds. The person in black has a knife like face, handsome and steep facial features, and his legs are in the shape of a servant step. One hand refers to the man in white in front of him, and the other hand is raised behind him.


    The man in white pretended to be angry and said, "Cui Jiu, I didn''t shoot you? Why are you robbing me of my weapon? "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised and found that there was a three edged arrow inserted in the left leg of the man in black, and the blood was slowly exuding. She looked at Lao sun. Lao sun also looked more alert and nodded.


    At this time, the man in black glanced at Lao sun, but did not ask him, but turned to Zhuo Xi and said, "demon, your people shot me. How do you calculate this account?"


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "if you want this crossbow, you can take it from the carriage. Why bother to destroy my carriage?"


    Lao sun was shocked, "master, you can''t!"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "I don''t know that the two experts are so interested in the little girl''s small bow and crossbow that they have led to a fierce battle. It''s wrong for the little girl. The black childe was sneaking in the forest. The little girl''s coachman just tried to shoot an arrow in case of a sneak attack. Unexpectedly, it was the little girl''s fault to hit the black childe. The little girl took the tool to take out the arrow for her husband. "


    The man in black snorted coldly, "demon girl, if it wasn''t Ben... I underestimated the range of your bow and crossbow. Even if you shoot three arrows in a row, how can you hurt me?!"


    Zhuo Xi said with a wry smile, "indeed, you two are very good at martial arts. Because of this, the little girl can be sure that you really don''t mean any harm to your next line. But the little girl wants to ask, why does the young girl call me a witch when she and the young master are strangers? "

 Chapter 92

    "Witch, how many sinister things have you done yourself? How many innocent lives have been killed? Do you still want to deny it? "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised and asked sincerely, "please tell me clearly, what''s the virtue and ability of the little woman, and how can she be a witch?"


    Is it the escape of cangcui mountain? It has been more than half a year since that incident. Although there are many casualties, most of them are military orders rather than personal revenge. She doesn''t think someone will come to avenge this matter at this time.


    The black childe laughed, "demon girl, dare to sophistry! Since you entered the little Ganges, we have followed you all the way. How many tricks did you put up along the way from the old woman in blue, the blind old woman and the lame little beggar? There are countless traps and hidden piles, so how many people are in danger? They are either dead or disabled. You say you can''t afford to be a witch. Who can?


    ¡±


    It turned out to be the wrong person. Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "how do you think I''m the one you''re looking for?"


    At this time, the young master in white also replied with a puzzled look on his face. "I followed them all the way. When I got to the forest, I bet who caught up first and then pursued separately." he glanced at Cui Jiu. "Did we get cheated by the girl again?"


    Cui Jiu angrily said, "Wang Qi, don''t be cheated by her! You forgot the pregnant woman you met in Qingyun town the day before yesterday? If it weren''t for your wishful thinking, the mother-in-law who wanted to help her wouldn''t die miserably! How many tears and blood did she cheat with her face all the way? " He turned to Zhuo Xi again. "Now, you think you''ve bought some slaves and pretended to be a lady of the family. I won''t recognize you!"


    Zhuo Xi laughed like him and said, "no wonder she can play you two round and round. It seems that your IQ is really worrying except for your strong martial arts."


    Cui Jiu asked suspiciously, "what is IQ?"


    Zhuo Xi pointed her head and rolled her eyes to the sky.


    Cui Jiu got angry and was about to attack. Xiao Li and they immediately flew to the front. But Wang Qi grabbed Cui Jiu and narrowed his eyes. "Her maidservants seem to have some martial arts foundation, not bought temporarily."


    Cui Jiu still said angrily, "can''t a servant with martial arts buy it?"


    Wang Qi arched his hand to Zhuo Xi and said, "please make it clear. If I accidentally recognize the wrong person and offend the girl, we will sincerely apologize to the girl."


    Zhuo Xi pointed to the crossbow in his hand and said with a smile, "it''s very simple. Have you ever seen that woman use this crossbow before?"


    Wang Qi shook his head, "No."


    Zhuo Xi said, "according to what you said, the woman should have escaped from life all the way. If she is in danger, what kind of weapon can''t be used? Just now, Mr. Cui also said that he underestimated the range of the bow. If the woman had this sharp weapon in her hand, why did she hide it until this time? "


    Cui Jiu still asked in a bad tone, "you stayed in Lianjiang town for two days and one night. Can''t you buy this bow in Lianjiang town?"


    Zhuo Xi laughed as like as two peas. "It seems that two people who are not cool, I dare to be bold. If the two sons can buy the same object as the bow from the cool country or the whole mainland, the little woman dare to give it with the gold medal. In the whole world, there are only eighteen bow ears here! In addition, although I don''t talk about military and state affairs, I don''t want people to invent this bow. I really hope they don''t spread from us. "


    Cui Jiu''s face was very ugly, and Wang Qi was also embarrassed. They instantly fell from the warrior who chased the demon girl to Xiao Xiaozhi who forcibly robbed other people''s weapons. With this in mind, Wang Qi presented the bow and crossbow with both hands, "if it''s true that I two are clumsy and recognize the wrong target, I''ll return it. However, the carriage has been damaged. My childe''s carriage will be presented immediately. Please don''t dislike it."


    As soon as the voice fell, he whistled, and sure enough, a horse came running with a luxury carriage. There''s no coachman on it.


    Wang Qi saw Zhuo Xi''s doubts and explained, "I''m the only one to take this car. I bet all the way. If I lose, I''ll be a coachman for a day. Today is just right. They lost together. Without the carriage, they don''t have to compete to be a coachman. "


    Zhuo Xi was not polite. He still had a long way to go south. He would suffer without cars and horses, so he nodded to Lao sun and surprised them. They went to tidy up in the carriage.


    Seeing their luggage thrown out of the carriage, Cui Jiu turned green.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with a knife handed to her by Xiao Li in her hand and pointed to a big stone on the side of the road, "childe Cui, there are barbs on the three edged arrow on your leg. I''m afraid it will be more damaged if you pull it out by force. I know a little about the art of astragaly. If you don''t mind, please let me take it out. "


    Cui jiuleng snorted and didn''t move.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "like this bow, this arrow has just been developed and born. There are orders on it. It must not fall into the hands of outsiders. You''d better not embarrass the little girl and her party... "


    Wang Qi pushed him, so he had to sit on the stone reluctantly.


    Zhuo Xi cut his trouser legs with scissors. Seeing that the three edged arrow had fallen into two inches, she was not surprised. She didn''t expect that the arrow could have such strength under such a long range.


    The king seven took a breath when he saw it. "I don''t think so. There are a large number of talents in the country of Wuliang. They can develop such a sharp weapon. It seems that the country of Wuliang will be strong on the battlefield in the future."


    Zhuo Xi cut his leg with a knife and said with a smile, "the little woman doesn''t understand the military affairs. The little woman only knows that once a war occurs, there will be a river of blood. How many wives and children will lose their husbands and fathers, and how many parents will lose their sons. I''m sure you don''t want to see such a scene. "


    Cui Jiu glanced at Zhuo Xi, but didn''t speak.


    Wang Qi smiled bitterly, "war is a struggle between kings. It has nothing to do with the promotion of civilians, but it has to be filled with human lives."


    "It''s more than human life. Sometimes a sergeant is the pillar of a family. When he dies, the family will collapse. It is said that there is no home, where is the country? More about the world? " She finally cut the wound on the edge of the arrow and pulled out the short arrow with a force. Blood gushed out, and Xiao Li quickly pressed a clean white cloth on his leg. Zhuo Xi told Xiao Ji to hurry through the needle and thread while throwing the arrows to Xiao soul. She asked her to count all 18 bows and 72 arrows. She didn''t dare to lose them. She also asked Lao sun to bring the wine gourd quickly.


    In Cui Jiu''s gnashing of teeth and Wang Qi''s stunned, Zhuo Xi first rinsed the wound with wine, and then sewed up Cui Jiu''s deep wound with a needle and thread.


    Zhuo Xi said while sewing, "childe Cui must be cursing me in his heart. But the little woman did not have the heart of revenge. You two have excellent martial arts. If the wound doesn''t heal in seven days, you can go all the way to Liangzhou to pursue our party. "


    "In addition, since they were in Lianjiang Town, they stared at the wrong target. Naturally, they went back to lianjiang town to look for clues. Since she is not invincible to her, why not find out the reason as soon as possible so that she doesn''t have to worry in vain. "


    Wang Qiqi said, "why does the girl know we don''t mean any harm to her?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "you two recognize me as her. If you two were determined to catch us, you would have attacked us long ago. How could you wait until we shoot a crossbow? What''s more, you followed her all the way. I''m afraid it''s not that you can''t catch up with her, but that you broke up for her and removed many pursuers behind you, so you slowly separated from her? In that case, it''s better to show her intention, and she won''t have to deceive you any more. "


    Wang Qisi took a test and agreed, "what the girl said is very true. After all, I take the liberty to disturb them. I''ll leave now and see you later." He reluctantly handed over his crossbow.


    Zhuo Xi looked and didn''t come forward to pick it up, but motioned Xiao soul to come forward and take over the crossbow.


    Wang Qi turned to hold Cui Jiu to leave, but Zhuo Xi slowly retreated and slowly said, "wait a minute, you two."


    Wang Qi turned around and asked in surprise, "what else can I do for you, girl?"


    Zhuo Xi Yu Guang swept the others back with her for a few steps and quickly raised his bow and crossbow to aim at them. Xiao soul also quickly raised his bow and crossbow to aim at them. Cui Jiu laughed angrily, "just you?!"


    Zhuo Xi raised a hand, motioned others not to act rashly, and said, "don''t get me wrong, great Xia. The effective firing range of this crossbow is 100 steps. I dare ask you two, if we wait until you go to about 80 to 100 steps to launch together, what is the chance of winning? "


    Wang Qi said with a smile, "at least 80%. Even if someone is unable to fight back, I will fight back. "


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "so we have no intention to hurt you. However, we tried this weapon when it first came out of the weapons workshop, and it was seen by you two... "She paused deliberately. Sure enough, she found that Cui Jiu''s right hand had stretched to his waist, smiled and said," you must have come from the Ganges, presumably from Zisang country. Now that we have committed the crime of divulging military weapons, we only ask you for a commitment. You are not allowed to inform a third person of today''s affairs, nor can you copy this thing without authorization or through others. Are you willing? "


    Cui Jiu angrily said, "such coercion, this is your attitude not to cool people and ask for help?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "we are all women. We don''t need to pay attention to the gentleman''s style. If this method can make you agree, how does the process matter? What''s more, I think this commitment is just a matter of mouth and there is no difficulty at all. "


    Cui Jiu looked at Wang Qi and said in a deep voice, "what if I don''t agree?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "we can only think that you two great Xia from Zisang country don''t have ulterior motives for this trip to the cool country. If we can''t kill you and fight for our lives, we will spread the news. There will be an urgent post station less than two miles away." She couldn''t help looking east.


    Wang Qi''s face changed slightly. Sure enough, he found that the strong man who had been standing beside her was gone, and said, "if so, how can I tell your subordinates if I made this promise?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "ha ha, we have our own way to inform him."


    Wang Qi thought for a moment, nodded and said, "girl, I believe you are the one who keeps your promise. However, I also need the girl''s promise not to disclose the whereabouts of me and me." When he saw Zhuo Xi nodding, he said, "I''m Wang Qi." he hit Cui Jiu with his arm. Cui Jiu reluctantly answered, "I''m Cui Jiu." Wang Qi continued, "never tell others what happened today, and never do it yourself or instruct others to imitate it."


    Zhuo Xi asked cautiously, "what is this thing?"


    Wang Qi said helplessly, "don''t do it yourself or instruct others to imitate this bow and crossbow."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and threw the crossbow to Xiao soul. Others also put the crossbow down. She arched her hands and said, "the little woman Meng Lang is dead. Please, gentlemen. "


    Wang Qi stared at her and said, "the girl is resourceful. I don''t know what to call?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Zhuo Xi."


    "Wang Dong. Farewell! " He dragged Cui Jiu and left quickly.


    Zhuo Xi watched him leave and breathed a sigh of relief. Surprised and puzzled, he asked, "girl, are these bows and crossbows really military weapons?"

 Chapter 93

    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "If I don''t say so, I''m sure they won''t believe it. They say they are defending foreigners, but they are actually defending their own people. " She looked at the direction they left and sighed. If you want to copy this crossbow, it''s not difficult at all. The difficulty lies in the mechanism slot in the middle.


    Jing Yan was even more confused. "Just two people from Zisang country can threaten our country? And why guard against your own people? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at these people and asked Xiao soul, "in your opinion, who are these two?"


    Xiao soul thought for a moment and said, "they just ignored their subordinates and only talked to the master. They must be the noble master of Zisang country. Such people are used to disdaining to talk to slaves. If Xun GUI, he will inevitably not be related to Zisang''s sergeant. Master, do you really believe in their commitment? "


    Zhuo Xi shrugged. "It is reasonable to say that if he is really a noble man, his promise is the most hypocritical. Maybe they didn''t care much about this little crossbow. If I say so, they will try their best to draw the drawing. Along the way, maybe we will be lively. However, what I want is that they break their promise. If they break their promise, we can be fat. " With a laugh, she went straight to the carriage left by Wang Qi. When I got on the bus, I saw the extremely coquettish bell hanging outside the carriage, waved it down and threw it into the nearby grass.


    With the permission of the empress dowager, Wang Jialin in the palace went to the Empress Dowager''s bedroom a few days ago to greet her. When she saw the queen and other wives, she was very respectful and had no pride at all. Seeing the king''s big car coming from a distance, she also quickly avoided and dared not show her face in front of Jingtai. Knowing that she was deeply disliked by the people in the palace, one day she asked for an order in front of the empress dowager, saying that she was not very stable in her first child and was afraid of bumping into a noble person. She asked to copy the Scriptures instead of going to Bai''an palace to say hello every day. Sun Yao was also upset because she wanted to see her every day. She also saw that the Empress Dowager had green eyes on her and couldn''t do it. She had to answer in front of the Empress Dowager first, secretly biting the root of her teeth and letting people keep an eye on her.


    For the rest of the time, Wang Jiayao carefully hid in his chasing Feng palace and dared not go around. Because of her bad reputation, few concubines came to her. She set up several pots in a corner of her yard. Because the Empress Dowager personally pointed to a cook in the small kitchen of Ci''an palace, Qing Niang came to help, the little supervisor in charge of managing the food supply in the inner house did not dare to neglect too much. She always sent some fresh fruits, vegetables and meat every day. Wang Jialin finally breathed a sigh of relief, so she made people contact her father outside the palace and asked him not to act rashly again.


    On this day, she got up late in the morning because she didn''t sleep well the night before yesterday. When the attendant saw her get up, he looked at her carefully and asked anxiously, "the master is not feeling well?"


    Beauty Wang stretched herself, touched her stomach and said, "OK. You''d better get up and go for a walk. " It''s amazing to think about it. There''s a little life in this stomach for no reason? Now I can''t feel anything. I don''t know how those imperial doctors feel their pulse. Since she entered the chasing Maple palace, she always reminded herself that she must not recall that new year''s Eve and the following days, because all the doubts, hates, regrets and understandings in her life had been reflected in the martial law department like a lantern in those days. But her hatred and confusion are not the most important now. The infatuation in the first half of her life was like a dream that trapped her in it. Now someone has helped her out in this way. The price paid by her father and mother can''t be in vain. That beautiful but intelligent woman once told her that the mood during pregnancy was very important to her child, so she should repent and regret, so she can''t immerse herself in it. The child is now her only self-protection weapon. If she keeps it, she can keep herself and her father who has made great sacrifices for her. Thinking of her father, she was shocked. She didn''t know how he was now. She had to find a time to see him.


    She stood up, shook her head and put aside all these thoughts. A new day came again. New crises were always everywhere, like the moss and small stones at her feet on the way to the Empress Dowager''s Ci''an palace that day, and the little centipede found in the starched clothes sent by red tea yesterday. The means of the harem are always emerging one after another, which makes it impossible to prevent. In fact, before she could set up a small cooker privately, her meals were eaten by tea first. After a long time without much reaction, she dared to eat. Often she could only wrap her stomach and not eat enough. She was afraid of any accident. If she ate less, she could also increase the chance of being rescued. So after the birthday banquet that day, Zhuo Xi kept in mind what she said to red tea outside the palace. From time to time, she asked red tea to say it again and again. At first, she felt that every word Zhuo Xi said was a life-saving method. The information that the Empress Dowager believed in Buddhism alone benefited her immensely. She could not only express filial piety to the Empress Dowager by copying Buddhist scriptures, but also avoid saying hello to the queen, and she could also get this simple cooker by cooking vegetarian goat milk for the Empress Dowager. It was killing one stone. Although the stove is two simple small stoves for decocting medicine, it can''t be assured that the food is cooked by their own people. The day before yesterday, I met little cousin Luo Yuan who came to visit the Empress Dowager. She said that there was a sensitive sister-in-law outside the palace. She was very expert in clothes, food, housing and transportation during the woman''s pregnancy. In a few days, I can ask the Empress Dowager for permission to enter the palace to teach her precautions, but I don''t know whether the Empress Dowager can agree.


    Yes, more importantly, right now.


    She sat up and asked red tea to dress her clothes neatly, and called the maid in waiting to come in and freshen up. A little maid accidentally knocked over the basin and was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed. The lady in the palace punished the maid without mercy. Many bodies were added to the mass grave not far from the palace wall every day. A few days ago, a sister next door combed Mrs. Qin''s head, dropped a white hair in front of her and was immediately killed by the staff, The master of chasing Feng palace heard that he was still not favored, and he didn''t know whether he had a big temper. She shouted "spare your life, beautiful lady", and soon knocked her head out of a blood mark.


    Wang Jiayao was a little impatient. "Do you think your head is made of bronze?! Why don''t you get up and clean up? "


    The little maid was a little stunned. Is it over? No punishment?


    Tea in the side also smiled, "master, if her head is made of bronze, I''m afraid it''s worth a lot of money." She shouted to the stunned maid, "why don''t you go and change the water quickly? The master is still waiting to wash his face! "


    She climbed and ran out holding the heavy copper basin, ignoring that the remaining water in the basin moistened her clothes.


    Wang Jiayao stroked her lower abdomen. Just now the copper basin suddenly fell to the ground and startled herself. Now her heart still hasn''t slowed down. I don''t know if the baby is scared. She couldn''t help asking tea, "do you think it can hear the loud noise just now?"


    Tea was stunned, lowered his eyes and said, "Miss, I don''t know..."


    Wang Jiayao looked at the water stains on the ground and sighed, "it''s dry, just like green..." she suddenly stopped her mouth.


    Tea immediately red eyes, "master..."


    On that day, when Wang Jiayao went to visit Feiyu drunken jade Pavilion, tea just took a few days off to go home to do the things behind her mother. She and lvluo had been serving the young lady since childhood. Lvluo''s temperament is clear to her. She has been used to flying and bossy by the young lady since childhood. She often encourages the young lady to do some special things. They didn''t lose their temper about it. But because miss has always spoiled lvluo, she often mentions miss from one side. Fortunately, the young lady is not indiscriminate, and sometimes she can appropriately adopt her suggestions. The day before she left, she specially told lvluo not to go out and make trouble. She stayed at home with the young lady for a few days until she came back. Unexpectedly, she had only left for a day, and lvluo instigated the young lady to go to the Feiyu drunk Yuxuan to "see". Because they had already made it clear that the Jinyuman building was originally opened by a suitable waiter from the Marquis of Guang''an. Somehow, it suddenly changed its name to Feiyu Zui Yuxuan. In fact, she knew that the young lady didn''t want to buy any clothes and jewelry, but mainly wanted to see the so-called Yishi. It was said that everyone had climbed into the bed of Lord Guang''an. For this bright rival, under her guidance, the young lady can not help but find someone else''s fault at the first time. As soon as she leaves, how can the young lady bear it? Unexpectedly, before the face-to-face meeting, the young lady was first dazzled by those beautiful clothes fans, and was earlier rendered by lvluo as the golden and jade building is her master''s industry, so there was a dialogue between the young lady and the girl Zhuo Xi. That girl Zhuo Xi is also very good. The young lady has assumed the identity of the future mistress of the Marquis house. Yi Shi, who is not even a concubine, didn''t buy it. She also said sharp words and pushed the young lady back. It''s a pity for lvluo. After returning to the house, the master listened to the detailed report of lvluo and immediately ordered her to sink into the pond. No matter how the young lady pleaded, begged for mercy or threatened, after a column of incense, the bodyguard reported that lvluo had finished handling it. Tea came back three days later. As soon as I came back, I saw the young lady lying on the bed, and the green rose disappeared. I inquired in every way before I understood what happened. She went to the master to apologize. The master waved his hand wearily and asked her to serve a good young lady carefully in the future. Don''t make trouble without knowing the greatness of heaven and earth. Unexpectedly, on New Year''s Eve, the young lady didn''t come back after going to the palace for dinner. The master searched madly for several days without results. She went outside the palace to inquire every day, and there was no news at all. However, the news came from the nail they had been installed in the Marquis house of Guang''an. It said that the Marquis told Zi Ran that the young lady had been driven into the martial punishment Department of the king''s back palace. I don''t know if the Guang''an Marquis had the news, but she didn''t care so much and hurried to tell the master. Later, she didn''t know the specific situation. She only knew that more than 20 days later, the master came back from the palace with stubble on his face. At the same time, he brought the news that the young lady was a beauty, and asked himself to go into the palace immediately to serve the young lady well. She was surprised and happy. She was glad that the young lady was safe. She was surprised that the young lady would suddenly be called a beauty? She knew that the young lady had to marry Guang''an Hou in her life. Why did she suddenly become a beauty in the harem? What''s more, the day she entered the palace, she was told by the young lady that she was pregnant!

 Chapter 94

    At this time, the little maid of honor brought in another basin of hot water, gently put it on the shelf, respectfully saluted Wang Jialin, and said softly, "beauty, please wash your face."


    Tea this just woke up from the memory, hurriedly went up and twisted the towel and handed it to Wang Jialin.


    Seeing this, the little maidservant consciously took a dishcloth basin outside and came in to clean up the water stain she had just wetted. She kept sucking the water, screwed it into another dirty basin, and then continued to suck it and wring it dry. Gradually, the half basin of water was basically sucked up from the ground. She looked at a large wet area in the whole room and was about to ask for instructions. She was about to wipe the other floors together. She looked down at the water in the basin, took a breath, gave a slight exclamation, and then covered her mouth conditionally.


    But this action has attracted the attention of Wang Jialin and red tea. Tea quickly walked over and saw that the water in the basin was blood red, and there was a thin layer of powder on the water.


    The little maidservant knelt on the ground. Seeing her two people looking at her, she quickly knelt down and walked forward a few steps and said, "madam, the maidservant wiped the water stains on the ground. Before, it had been chaotic and the amount of water was small. She thought it was pickles such as dust. I didn''t want this basin to be so calm!"


    Wang Jialin also came over and looked carefully at the bloody basin of water. Because it was a bronze basin bottom, the color was dark. She suddenly remembered the doctor Wu mentioned by Yanling County Ji that day, and thought that her pulse was diagnosed by Doctor Wu, so she immediately said to red tea, "you send someone to the medical department to ask doctor Wu to come over and say that I feel a little unwell. In addition, let red clothes call purple clothes. "


    "Promise." Tea dare not neglect, Fu Fu body went out and ordered.


    Wang Jialin went back to her chair and sat down. She said to the maid in waiting, "I remember, your name is Qingyi, right? Where are the old purple clothes? " In addition to the three palace maids in the house, several people outside actually didn''t know her very well.


    The little maid in waiting leaned down and said, "I''m in green clothes. I''ve been in charge of cleaning in the outer court all the time. Ziyi was originally responsible for the cleaning of the inner room. She had a headache this morning, so she asked her maid to send hot water for her mother. She said it was a matter of cleaning. Come back when she got up in the afternoon. "


    "When did you enter the palace?"


    "Last August, he had been waiting in the inner government pulp room. It was only half a month ago that I was ordered to serve in Zhuifeng palace. " When they came, she still remembered that she even looked at more than 30 small palace maids. Finally, she chose five beautiful looking maids to stay and gave them names, called green, purple, blue, red and orange.


    "Have you ever known Ziyi before?"


    Qingyi said, "the maidservant is the sister in purple who came to chase Feng palace."


    "You live in the same room?"


    Qingyi said, "exactly. I heard sister Ziyi cough twice last night. I''m afraid she was cold. "


    At this time, the voice of red clothes sounded outside, "madam, maidservant brought purple clothes."


    Wang Jialin responded faintly. Red tea brought purple clothes in, and red clothes followed in with a cup of hot soup. Red clothes served the meals of beauty Wang, so she put the hot cup in her hand in front of the table, smiled and said, "madam, you got up late today. Drink this goat''s milk while it''s hot. Qing Niang has already cooked breakfast and can eat it right away. " She is lively and has long been a part of Wang Meimei and red tea, and her speech is more casual.


    Beauty Wang always remembered Zhuo Xi''s words earlier to keep a happy mood. She was also happy to tease this relaxed little maid in waiting, but she was not in a good mood today. She only said faintly, "put it down."


    Tea stared at her. The man in red was stunned. He looked at the green and purple clothes kneeling on the ground. His face turned white. He knew he had crossed. He saluted respectfully and said, "breakfast slaves and maidservants are simmering on the stove. Master, tell me when you want to eat" and he was going out.


    Beauty Wang stopped her again, "wait a minute."


    Red dress turned back and bowed to wait. She heard the master say, "go heat up today''s goat milk and give it to the empress dowager, and tell my ancestors that I''m not feeling well in the palace. I''ll go to greet my ancestors in the afternoon."


    Hongyinuo gave a sound and went out.


    Beauty Wang looked at the purple clothes kneeling on the ground and saw that her face was a little pale. From time to time, she covered her mouth and coughed, "why, is it cold?"


    Purple clothes bowed to the ground, "Lao Niang asked. The maid slept to death last night. She didn''t notice that the window was opened by the wind, so she was a little cool. Damn it, I dare not serve you with sickness. Please forgive me. "


    "Then, do you know why I call you here now?"


    The purple dress head lowered, "I don''t know."


    Beauty Wang took a look at tea, tea will come forward and shouted, "bitch! What have you done? Why don''t you tell the truth? "


    Purple clothes looked up in panic, "madam, the maidservant didn''t do anything."


    One side of Qingyi said, "sister Ziyi, we all found it. Just recruit."


    What did Ziyi find out about you


    Qingyi pointed to the basin of water in the corner and said, "if I hadn''t knocked over a basin of water, I''m afraid what you did will never be found."


    "It''s impossible. The maid didn''t do anything!" Ziyi looked up at Wang Jialin.


    Tea angrily, "hum! If you don''t do anything and don''t know anything, how dare you drink this basin of water? "


    Ziyi didn''t even look at the basin of water, so she nodded and said, "maidservant dare."


    She got up and walked to the water, bent over to pick up the basin, but she coughed, and then coughed all the time.


    Wang Jialin looked coldly and saw a dozen curtains outside the door. She came in in red and said, "madam, Doctor Wu is coming."


    Beauty Wang nodded. After a while, Doctor Wu came in with a medical box. Seeing a palace maid kneeling on the ground and a palace maid coughing with a basin of water in the corner, beauty Wang sat on the head and didn''t see any discomfort. Seeing that the situation was very strange, she couldn''t help wondering, "your mother?"


    Beauty Wang sighed, "purple clothes, put down the water first, so as not to spill it again." She turned to Doctor Wu, "thank you, Doctor Wu."


    Wu Taiyi quickly returned the salute and said, "your mother is polite. This is the duty of an officer."


    "Then, could you ask doctor Wu to see what''s wrong with that basin of water?"


    Wu Taiyi nodded, and red tea led Wu Taiyi to the corner.


    Wu Taiyi looked at the water in the basin carefully, picked up the powder on the water and rubbed it at his fingertips. His face changed greatly. He quickly told red tea, "take it out!"


    Tea looked at beauty Wang. Doctor Wu came over and said shyly, "I''m sorry, I''m over. Mother, this water is mixed with Fuchsia pollen and fruit powder. It is not harmful to ordinary people, but for pregnant women, if inhaled for a long time, it may lead to tire slip. The lower officer was in a hurry to ask the girl with red tea to carry out the water. "


    Before he finished, tea immediately poured out the basin of water, and then hurriedly came in, pointing to the nose of purple and scolding, "the wolf heart and dog lung is really blinded by lard! He even smeared such a vicious thing on the ground by sweeping every day to harm the master. What else can you say? "


    Ziyi widened her eyes, climbed over and looked at Wu Taiyi, "Wu Taiyi said, is there Sanpin red pollen in the water?"


    Wu Taiyi nodded, "exactly."


    At this time, red clothes came in with Qing Niang, holding a bag of things, "Niang, this thing was found in the wardrobe of the girl in purple. I don''t know what it is!"


    Tea looked up and saw a purse with a bag of powder and two notes. She gave the package of powder to Doctor Wu and the note to beauty Wang.


    Wu Taiyi opened the powder, smelled it, touched some with his fingers, tasted it on the tip of his tongue, and replied, "madam, this is the powder of sanpinhong fruit." He immediately looked at tea and wondered, "is this the only bag?"


    Red tea was already very angry. Regardless of answering the words of Doctor Wu, she came forward and slapped her face in purple, "bitch! How cruel! "


    Beauty Wang also said angrily, "come!"


    Two rude envoys outside the door immediately came in. Wang Mei''s fingertips pointed to the purple clothes, "will..." her fingertips suddenly changed direction, "she took it down for me!"


    Qingyi screamed, "madam, why me?!" He was surprised that he had used the wrong name and quickly changed his mouth, "I''m wronged!"


    Two old ladies pulled her up and pressed her against the wall so that she could not move.


    Tea also surprised, "master?"


    Beauty Wang looked at the five fingerprints on Qingyi''s face and sighed, "you''re wronged. Get up first."


    Qingyi kowtowed to the ground and stood up slowly.


    Red clothes shouted, "madam, don''t be deceived by green clothes! She did it on the bluestone floor! The maidservant refused! "


    Beauty Wang sneered, "Qingyi, if you don''t make your own decision to add pollen to the basin, maybe you will believe what you said."


    Red clothes were stunned, "what?"


    "You deliberately opened the window last night to cool purple clothes in order to have a chance to enter my bedroom this morning. When he came in, he deliberately knocked over the water, which was intended to fill the pollen into the crack of the floor tile when wiping the ground. Am I right? "


    "No, ma''am, it was the maidservant who first found that the ground was different. How could it be the powder sprinkled by the maidservant? "


    "That''s because you knew in advance that Ziyi moved her hands and feet on the floor. If you made a contribution, you are likely to take over her work instead of Qingyi, so that you can continue to sprinkle pollen in the future. Am I right? "


    Qingyi clenched his teeth and said, "since Qingyi also moved his hands and feet, why don''t you catch her?"


    "Because what she sprinkles is sanpinhong fruit powder, while what you sprinkle is sanpinhong pollen."


    Tea is also a spectator confused, "master? Is it true that the fruit of three poinsettias is non-toxic? "


    Wang Jiayao nodded, "if the palace guesses well, Sanpin safflower powder itself is not toxic. Doctor Wu, is this palace right? "


    Wu Taiyi hurriedly replied, "if you go back to your mother, she did guess well. If the two exist alone, they are indeed non-toxic, but if they are mixed together, they are easy to stimulate the contraction of women''s pregnancy palace, and women with early months are very easy to slip their fetuses. "


    Qingyi hated and said, "hahaha, I admit, I added Sanpin red pollen. She! " She raised her hand and pointed to Ziyi. "Ziyi is my accomplice!"


    Ziyi looked at her piteously and painfully: "Qingyi, although you and I have known each other for only half a month, you and I live in the same room. On weekdays, they are also sisters. Why do you hurt me again and again?"


    Qingyi asked bitterly, "she is my accomplice. Why don''t you catch her?!"


    Wang Mei said humanely, "in this way, I will let you die to understand!" She turned to Wu Taiyi, "Wu Taiyi, if the three red fruit powder is used alone, what effect will it have?"


    "Madam Hui, although the powder of sanpinhong fruit is a powder, it is a powder formed by drying the juice from sanpinhong fruit. Therefore, it is colorless and tasteless in water. Only when it meets insoluble pollen will it gradually turn blood red. Sanpinhong fruit itself is not toxic. On the contrary, it has the effect of calming the mind and helping sleep. "


    Qingyi looked pale and had nothing to say.


    "If you didn''t know in advance that Ziyi put sanpinhong fruit powder in the water to wipe the floor, how can you expose Ziyi by mixing sanpinhong pollen with it to reveal its blood color?" Beauty Wang waved her hand, "search her!"


    At once, one of the two women cut her hands, and the other "hissed" and tore open her clothes. Despite her screams, they groped up and down.

 Chapter 95

    Doctor Wu quickly closed his eyes and wanted to block his ears.


    Soon, a woman took out a handkerchief from her arms. Red tea took the handkerchief and opened it. It was obvious that it was folded into a square medicine bag, and there was still some powder in it.


    Doctor Wu took it and smelled it. He frowned and said, "this powder is the third grade red pollen. Don''t get close to it."


    Tea grabbed and threw it out, went to the basin and washed her hands several times before she came back, "empress, what should I do with this bitch?"


    Wang Jialin said wearily, "let''s put her in the firewood room in the backyard and try her again tomorrow. I''m a little tired today. Would you please ask doctor Wu to give me a safe pulse? "


    Wu Taiyi repeatedly said, "you''re welcome."


    When everyone in the house went down, there was only red tea waiting on one side. Wu Taiyi was sitting on the chair, closing her eyes, carefully holding her pulse, leaning slightly and opening her eyes, "madam, you just have a little blood surge because of your emotional excitement. As long as you have a good rest, it''s OK. The lower officer will prescribe a decoction to help calm your mind. If you feel upset and dry, you can drink it. " He took out the pen, ink and paper in the box, carefully wrote down a prescription and handed it to red tea.


    "The list of inedible things during pregnancy written by Wu Taiyi is really useful. The palace has not thanked Wu Taiyi yet." Wang Jialin suddenly raised her eyes and stared at him and asked, "just why does Doctor Wu want to help me?"


    Doctor Wu''s hand paused, but his eyes didn''t lift. He just said in surprise, "the lower officer is just telling the truth. Have you ever helped anyone?"


    Wang Jialin said, "it can be seen everywhere that the harem refers to deer as horses. It''s really rare for Wu Taiyi to tell the truth with an honest heart." She paused and asked, "if one day the palace needs..., I wonder if Mrs. Wu is still willing to help the palace?"


    Wu Taiyi had packed up his things, stood up, arched his hands and said, "it''s natural for me to be duty bound to do what I''m supposed to do. As a rule, the lower official will come every half a month to ask for her mother''s safe pulse, and ask her to relax. Don''t worry too much and oppose the disadvantage of the fetus. "


    Wang Jialin stared at his drooping eyelids. "Is it cousin Yanling?"


    Doctor Wu looked at her without a wave. He just arched his hand and said goodbye to her, "madam, I''ll leave now."


    Wang Jialin gently breathed out a sigh. Unexpectedly, it was the cousin who was not very close to her who was willing to help in her crisis. I thought again, maybe it was inspired by Aunt Jing Qian. In this world, in addition to her father''s sincere care for her, the only one who can be called sincere to her is her aunt.


    It was not too late for her to wake up.


    She remembered the intelligent woman outside the palace and said, "in this world, the only one who can help herself must be herself."


    Zhuo Xi and his party walked quickly for a few days and entered Qingyun town. Lao sun drove the carriage straight outside an inn and stopped. Zhuo Xi also jumped down after Xiao soul got off the bus. A waiter greeted him and said with a sly smile, "my guest, are you the top or stay in the hotel?"


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was Jianyi in disguise. She almost couldn''t help laughing. What''s his look? Hungry dog sees meat and bones?


    It''s easy to see that the master finally arrived. He was so excited that he almost burst into tears. God knows what kind of suffering they have had these days? What nonsense do you want at this time? Just receive it directly from the main room and talk to her! With the backbone, there will be action instructions, and he will no longer have to pretend to receive guests and closely observe visiting guests in this broken store.


    Zhuo Xi held her hand into a fist and said seriously, "check in, come to four rooms first!"


    "Well! My guest, please throw the towel skillfully on your shoulder and lead the way in front.


    They blatantly walked through the hall, through a curtain, through a row of bungalows, through a curtain, to a courtyard, through two crescent doors, and to a bright main house.


    As soon as he walked into the yard, Zhuo Xi was surprised. Many people in the yard were practicing martial arts. All the way through the hall into the main house, she was more and more frightened all the way. At first glance, it looks like a martial arts school, but if you pay a little attention, it is not difficult to find that it is like a fake barracks. Although those people dress up as martial arts men and train quietly, their moves are all the rules and regulations of the barracks and have no Jianghu flavor. Just from the fact that they buried themselves in training and never showed any curiosity about the appearance of strangers from Zhuo Xi and his party, they are a disciplined army.


    Zhuo Xi''s heart became more and more heavy. It seemed that the situation was more serious than he thought.


    Led by Jian Yi, she entered the main house. In the house, Zi Ran, Yu Liang and others are there, as well as some others. When Zi Ran saw her coming in, he immediately jumped up and gave up the master beside him. Without any hesitation, she nodded and sat down directly on the throne.


    As soon as she sat down, Zi Ran left her seat, stepped back, and gave a standard military style semi kneeling boxing ceremony, "see the master."


    Zhuo Xi scanned and said in a deep voice, "your master is Lord Hou, but don''t call the wrong person!"


    "Madam and master, the master has already made it clear that madam and master have worshipped heaven and earth, so they will regard you as him and regard you as the Lord! Now the master''s whereabouts are unknown. My wife is the master of my subordinates! " Zi Ran''s words were clear and clear to everyone present. Madam can''t call openly now. She can only call the master. This master is because of the relationship between the Marquis, so in the final analysis, the Marquis is still the only master.


    Zhuo Xi Teng stood up. "When did he say that?!"


    Zi Ran replied respectfully, "on the day he left Beijing, most people here were present." He glanced at the people in the hall, and the others stood up and saluted respectfully, "my subordinates will follow the Lord and madam to the death."


    Zhuo Xi listened and sat down slowly, but her heart was shocked. She had always thought that his deception with his blood bath was just a little farce between men and women. Just like a big boy who wanted to eat sugar and couldn''t pretend to be dead, she just coaxed her. She didn''t think he would take it seriously, and she didn''t take it seriously herself. Who is he? That''s the Marquis of Guang''an under one person and over ten thousand people in the kingdom of Wuliang. What kind of woman can''t you get? If he wants to play with ingenuity, she will play with him well, but she never knew that he could disclose the relationship between the two people to his subordinates in such a serious manner. This is not only his recognition of her identity, but also much more solemn than any paper and oral commitments. What''s more, he unreservedly let her fully participate in his life, which is entrusted with his life.


    At present, she is no longer pinching, and it is right to race against time to find out the truth. So she sat up straight and said, nodding at the table, "you all sit down. Who knows the details, tell me the situation in detail."


    A simple and rough map was spread on the table, and everyone sat down one by one. Zi Ran pushed the map in the direction of Zhuo Xi, "let''s talk about it. This picture was drawn by us in recent days after you sent a message from Xiao soul last time. You see, this is Wusha official road where we escorted the Marquis to arrive that day. This official road is about 180 miles long. It starts from Bailian town in the north, passes through Huangsha Town, and passes Xiangli post station 50 miles in the south, which is Liangzhou city. On the 22nd day of the first month, we set out from Huangsha town and wanted to spend the night at Xiangli post station. On the afternoon of the second day, we could arrive at Liangzhou city. First, we asked 500 cavalry to hurry to Liangzhou city to arrange resettlement. I''ll follow my carriage slowly. When we arrived at this autumn wind ridge, suddenly several grass arrows came, one of them was shot on a trunk in front of the carriage, with a jade pendant and a note inserted on it. While the subordinates sent people to track down the person who put the cold arrow, they untied the jade pendant and the note and handed it to the marquis. The Marquis did not say anything when he saw him. He just said that he was on his way. "


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand, stopped his words and asked, "did you see the content of the note?"


    The sheep''s skins were cut and folded together


    "What do you think of the jade pendant?"


    Zi Ran recalled, "my subordinates just took a quick look. It seems that it''s a Pisces holding beads. It''s a very common style. On the contrary, the ears on the top were very strange. "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "how strange?"


    "Generally, the ears used by the royal family are louver knots made of yellow or red satin rope; If it is expensive, it is also a blind knot made of pure and one color of other colors. But the ears were knotted with multicolored ropes. Don''t be cold. Only couples will tie red concentric knots, but I don''t know why they are colorful. "


    Zhuo Xi had a strange feeling in her heart, and there was a little smile on her face.


    Zi Ran was surprised and couldn''t help asking, "master, but there''s a guess in my heart?"


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "I''m just thinking, isn''t your master lucky?"


    As soon as the voice fell, Zhuo Xi thought something was wrong. The next second, sure enough, I saw the people under me suddenly look. I''m afraid they all thought they were jealous. They were a little embarrassed, but they were afraid that the more they painted, the darker they became. But I had to remind them. Tun zhengse said, "I heard that there is a magic cup technique in southwest purple mulberry. They are used to raising cup insects in juices of different colors and tastes. When it is used, He soaked the rope cloth with the juice of different colors to make clothes and accessories for the target character. Different colors have different effects, and the cup insects quietly drill into the pores of the human body. The simultaneous appearance of these five colors is an early warning. Since it is a concentric knot, I''m afraid it has something to do with the word love. I just don''t know which color the other Party chose in the end? Or, what color did the Marquis choose? "


    The more they listened, the more frightened they were. Yu Liang couldn''t help asking, "why does the master know so much?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "on the way here, I asked Xiao soul to collect some anecdotes to listen to, so I happened to know some. I also know that the five colors are blue, black, purple, blue and brown. Zi Ran, am I right? "


    Zi Ran nodded like mashing garlic, "it''s these five colors, so the whole jade pendant looks very ferocious. But the jade pendant and its color look very old. It seems that it has been for some time. "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a while and didn''t think of any clue, so she let Zi Ran go on.


    Zi Ran then said, "the people sent out to investigate came back empty handed that night, and we didn''t find any clues. In addition, the Marquis didn''t say anything, so we didn''t take it to heart. When he arrived at the post station and rested, the Marquis took a meal, drank medicine and rested as usual. Stay until... "


    Zhuo Xi frowned again and asked, "you know the injury of Lord Hou best. Explain it to me once." She asked countless times along the way, but no one gave a correct answer. She was already a little angry.

 Chapter 96

    Zi Ran immediately said, "Lord Hou''s injury is no big problem, but it''s difficult to heal." He hesitated for a moment. Seeing Zhuo Xi''s face was bad, he quickly said, "Lord Hou''s wound is in his lower abdomen. The wound is small and deep. I''m afraid the medicine can only be used on the surface, so the healing is slow. I have a bad appetite, but my spirit is really good. I want to hurry to Liangzhou and finish the job. "


    Zhuo Xi knew that she was afraid of hurting her abdomen and small intestine. She was not there. No one dared to pick up the wound and sew it up. She was afraid that she would suffer some sins, so she nodded and said, "you continue."


    Zi Ran said, "it was Jianyi on duty that night, but Jianyi him..." he looked at Jianyi.


    When I woke up, I was still ashamed to eat...... "


    "No other dark guards?"


    "Yes." A voice sounded, "my subordinates have been secretly protecting me. When they heard a voice in my house, they rushed in immediately and somehow let the sneak attacker jump out of the window. My lord ordered me to chase him immediately, and I went. But after chasing for a long time, I didn''t see any suspicious figure, so I had to come back and reply to the Lord. Only then did I find that the LORD was gone. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the speaker and didn''t see him.


    Zi Ran immediately explained, "this is the dark guard who hasn''t appeared. It''s difficult. They took turns that night."


    "Others found out who had sneaked into my house?"


    Everyone looked ashamed, and no one dared to answer.


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "it doesn''t hurt. Since ye deliberately distracted you, it must be a fake game. It''s normal for you to find out."


    Zi Ran Qi said, "we have also speculated. But if you insist on going alone, why do you leave a mark along the way for us to follow? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you go on."


    "After the sleepy man woke us up, he told us that he was gone. We immediately searched around and saw the sign left by the marquis in the woods south of the post station. I followed the sign all the way east to the forgetting cliff. When his subordinates arrived, they saw the Lord fighting with several people in black from a distance. He was forced to the edge of the cliff. My subordinates tried their best to drive forward, but it was too late. I saw that the Marquis was hit by a man in black and flew off the cliff. When we arrive, half of us will fight with the people in black, and the other half will try to go down the cliff to search. Unexpectedly, those men in black did not love war, and they fought and retreated. When we found out, we sent more people to support. One of them had escaped, and the others could not escape. They took poison and killed themselves before we started. Then everyone searched down the cliff. We touched every inch of the cliff, walked every inch of wasteland at the bottom of the cliff, and even swam down a river at the bottom of the cliff for dozens of miles without finding any clues. "


    Zhuo Xi pondered for a moment, wandered on the map for a long time, touched her empty stomach, "get something to fill her stomach first. After eating, we''ll go to the edge of the cliff again in the afternoon. Always go to the scene. " When she said this, she looked at everyone''s faces and found several new faces. She asked, "Zi Ran, what do you call them? It''s impolite to say that I can''t recognize all of you here after a long time. "


    The several quickly stood up and said they didn''t dare. Zi Ran also stood up and arched his hands, "master, they are all the generals of Bai Hui army who came to meet. The master had not seen them before, so he didn''t recognize them. " He turned to the people. "Introduce yourself."


    A man with a stubble on the far left said, "subordinate Wang Han, commander of the seventh Battalion of Baihui army."


    Then several people arched their hands in order and said, "the seventh Battalion of Bai Hui army serves Chang Chen Hang."


    "Baizhong, commander of the 10th battalion of Baihui army."


    "The tenth battalion of Bai Hui army is returned by Chang Zhang Yun."


    "Li Liao, deputy commander of the 10th battalion of Baihui army."


    Zhuo Xi carefully wrote down their names and looks and asked casually, "now the main sergeants in the hospital are from the seventh, tenth and seventeenth battalions, right?"


    Zi Ran replied, "exactly. The 17th battalion was the accompanying soldiers and horses originally stationed on the outskirts of Kyoto. The seventh and tenth battalions arrived the day after the Marquis disappeared. In the past ten days, it is also thanks to these people. Otherwise, dozens of people, such as me, will have to rely on us for hundreds of miles. I''m afraid we can''t find them. "


    There are hundreds more people. Isn''t it the same without results? Zhuo Xi secretly said, "you generals have worked hard. Why don''t we all go back for lunch first? In the afternoon, when I went to the forgetful cliff to personally check the terrain, I''ll come back and discuss. How about it? "


    "Promise!"


    The people in the hall answered simply and immediately dispersed.


    Zhuo Xi called Zi Ran, "Zi Ran, where is my bedroom?"


    Zi Ran hurriedly said, "in the backyard, please follow me."


    Zi Ran took her to the backyard. There were no big men to practice martial arts. It was really quiet.


    Zhuo Xi settled down in a big hall in the backyard. Jing Yan and Xiao Li also assigned rooms to clean up.


    Zi Ran told him to leave, but under the sign of Zhuo Xi''s eyes, he went out and ordered people to prepare meals, and then turned back to the main room.


    At this time, only Zhuo Xi was left in the house. Zhuo Xi let Xiaobai out to look for food, called Xiao soul out and motioned Xiao soul to bring the door. She sat at the table and knocked. Xiao soul naturally sat down. Zi Ran still wanted to say "no". Seeing Zhuo Xi''s murderous eyes and hands, he had to sit down with his ass next to the small side of the chair.


    Zhuo Xi whispered, "Zi Ran, tell me honestly, how many dark guards are there in this room?"


    Zi Ran compared five with his hands and whispered, "in addition to Jianyi, who also holds military posts, there are only inter difficulties, inter difficulties, and hidden clouds and inter winds. At present, the clouds and winds are still hidden in the dark and are not easily exposed. Everyone here thinks that there are only two people who secretly take turns to protect the Lord. In fact, there are four people. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction and asked, "where were the clouds and the wind when there was an accident in the Marquis''s house that day?"


    Zi Ran replied, "it''s also quite strange. Jian Yun said that the Lord temporarily sent him to Liangzhou city for arraignment in advance that day. Originally, there was only one person to be summoned, but that day, my Lord said that everything was important. Let Jianfeng go together, so that they can take care of each other. "


    "Do you know who to summon?"


    Zi Ran shook his head. "We only obey the Lord''s orders and don''t dare to inquire about anything else."


    "Then, are you the only ones who can recognize the marks left by my lord?"


    Zi Ran shook his head. "We often use such signs to convey messages. Among those who met in the front room today, all but two of them recognized them."


    "What else?"


    Zi Ran thought, "there are still some reprimands." Those are the core circles, and most of the soldiers outside don''t recognize them except those who inquire about the news.


    Zhuo Xi nodded and had a target candidate. She then asked, "it was late at night when Hou Ye disappeared. When did you catch up with the edge of the forgetful cliff?"


    Zi Ran thought for a moment and said, "the sky is getting brighter. It should be just after Mao."


    "The sky is bright and the vision should not be very clear. How did you judge that it was the Marquis? "


    Zi Ran hesitated for a moment. "The man was dressed in the purple robe of the Marquis, and his figure was the same as that of the marquis."


    "So, you just saw my body, not my face?"


    "Yes. We are all crazy. When we see the figure of the Lord, where will we doubt whether it is or not? " Zi Ran Ran hurriedly.


    Zhuo Xi nodded to understand, "so he didn''t wait for you to get close and fell off the cliff. He was afraid to help."


    Zi Ran asked suspiciously, "wear help?"


    "Is to be found loopholes." Zhuo Xi was more and more sure that it was not Jing Yuan.


    "Master, do you mean that the master is false? In fact, I didn''t fall off the cliff? " Zi Ran asked again.


    Zhuo Xi said, "this is just my guess. This man led the Lord away with a jade pendant. Naturally, he didn''t want you to find him, so he arranged many tricks for you. If you want me to die, why do you play with so many mysteries? "


    Zi Ran thought a little and said, "those marks... The master means that there are traitors among us?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "this is also my guess. We will know whether it is this afternoon. However, you should keep quiet. We have to do something in the afternoon before we can find out the traitor. After the traitor is found out, we can rest assured to find him. "


    Zi Ran''s eyes lit up, "master, do you know where the Lord is?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "I don''t know yet. But I think it should be fast. " She thought of the Trident in her mind. She had a very strong intuition that there must be a problem in that place.


    "Zi Ran, I have something I need you and Xiao soul to do personally. Now the traitor is unknown. I can''t trust anyone except you. "


    Xiao soul hurried, "master, no, I can''t leave you."


    Zhuo Xi said, "only when you are not with me, the ghost will appear."


    Xiao soul and Zi Ran shouted at the same time, "master, don''t!" She''s risking her life.


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand. "There''s nothing you can''t do. Don''t you want to find the Marquis one day earlier?" In fact, she knows that if the people behind the scenes want to achieve the same purpose as they did in Kyoto, she will not be in real danger.


    This sentence made Zi Ran and Xiao soul lose their voice at the same time.


    In the afternoon, Zhuo Xi took Jing Yan and Xiao Li with her when she went out, and asked Jian sleepy and Jian nan to lead them all the way from the post station along the "code" left by the so-called marquis. Because Zhuo Xi was not familiar with Jian sleepy and Jian Nan, Jian Yi told Feng Yong to take care of them, and Zhuo Xi readily agreed. Others were assigned other tasks one after another. For a moment, they acted separately, but there was no objection.

 Chapter 97

    When Zhuo Xi and his party arrived at the post station, it was the most sunny time in the afternoon. Generally, Zhuo Xi is determined not to go out at this time. The ultraviolet rays of the sun at two o''clock at noon are extremely strong, which is no different from poison for her who has been allergic to the sun since she was a child. But now she has changed her body. Although she doesn''t have to worry about the wonderful problem of sunshine allergy, she instinctively has a habit of avoiding the sunshine at this o''clock. So she covered a long mask.


    The chief of the post station was a little frightened about the arrival of Zhuo Xi and his party. He doesn''t know the man with a long mask, but Jian Yi has an official position in the army. He accompanied the Marquis a few days ago. How dare you not recognize him? Fortunately, Jian Yi didn''t have much expression. He just said that the Marquis had left something close to him in the post house and needed to look for it in the wing room where he lived that day. The commoner nodded repeatedly, bent over and led a group of people to the room where the Marquis lived that day. He thought to himself what it was. He asked three men and three women to come together to look for it.


    The six walked all the way to the small room. Because the room was too small, Zhuo Xi took a step in and asked the others to wait outside. The post station is only a temporary place to rest. Even if the Marquis comes, he is also a tall man among the dwarfs. The layout inside is very simple. There is a small bed, a small table, four chairs and several shelves along the window. It seems to be used for temporary screen bathing. There''s nothing else.


    After seeing the post house, he walked all the way along the official road to the edge of forgetting love cliff. The stone carving marks seemed to be vague and visible. Zhuo Xi had no mind to distinguish, but followed them all the way. I''m in a hurry. Sometimes I stop by the side of the road and drink water to moisten my throat. Zi Zi looked all the way carefully, but there was no clue. The sun gradually sets in the west, and the strong sun slowly softens down, dragging people''s shadow longer and longer. Finally, when the sun disappeared, Zhuo Xi and his party returned to the backyard of an inn.


    Looking at her gloomy face, everyone knew that she had nothing to gain from this trip in the afternoon, and the original plan to hold a meeting and discuss in the evening was also put into the water, so they had to press down their burning mood and slowly pace back to the room to do their own things.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t eat dinner either, so he just threw his head on the bed and covered his head in the quilt. This is her habitual action when she encountered problems for many years. She didn''t encounter a problem once when she came to this world. Now she really met it. Her habits for many years were shaken out, and she couldn''t help being stunned for a long time. What had happened in the past few months was played out one after another in front of the soft quilt. She always felt as if she had missed something. Her long sense of floating and unreal began to appear again. She suspected that these things were all a dream or an illusion. When she really woke up, she could go back to the castle in Britain in the 21st century.


    Xiao soul came back quietly, stood silently beside her, watched her put her head in the quilt, and was secretly worried that she would be out of breath. She was about to come forward to call her, but she suddenly straightened her upper body, held her hand into a fist and shouted, "I know!"


    Xiao soul quickly poured a glass of water on the table to her hand and whispered, "master, what do you know?"


    Zhuo Xi was startled. After seeing that the man in front of her was Xiao soul, he punched her and sighed with relief, "I know that your Marquis must have been caught into the den of thieves by the female bandit and become the minister in charge of the village!"


    Xiao soul, with a black line on his face, took out the sheepskin map in his arms, "master, this is the topographic map that Zi Ran and I went to the west to investigate in the afternoon."


    Zhuo Xi took a look at it and couldn''t bear it anymore. "Your drawing is too shabby, isn''t it? Tell me, what does this circle mean? This line is a river? How did this line become a road again? Is this the way? A parabola is a mountain? How high is the mountain? How many miles? "


    Xiao soul''s head went down lower and lower, and his hands made crazy gestures behind his back to let Zi ran out of the encirclement. But her hands were about to break, and no one came out.


    Zhuo Xi finished with one breath and found that he was facing a layman. He directly shouted, "Zi Ran!"


    A figure slowly floated in from the door and said with a bitter face, "master, isn''t this how military maps have been drawn for hundreds of years?" Although he admitted that the questions she had just asked did exist, there was no way to say no?


    Zhuo Xi was stunned for a moment and then reacted. At this time, the hand-painted map is still in its infancy. There is no professional survey technology and drawing technology. He can only make visual inspection and estimation, and mark an icon at will, that is, the village. Forget it. Teach them when you''re free. It''s important to ask the situation first¡° Tell me, what did you find this afternoon? "


    Zi ran quickly took Xiaobai out of his arms and gently put it on the bed. It was still sleeping. He pointed to the map and said, "thirty miles to the East is forgetting cliff, which is close to the border between Wuliang and Zisang, and then to the West and south is zhaojialing, which is the border town of the two countries. Zhaojialing is the first barrier for Zisang to enter the Wuliang. Its southeast direction is Liangzhou, and the 100000 troops of marquis are stationed in a long area between Liangzhou and zhaojialing. " Speaking of this, he paused, looked lovingly at the tired Xiaobai, lowered his voice and said, "master, according to your instructions, we went all the way south from here to the deep mountains and forests. Sure enough, under the guidance of Xiaobai, we found the kind of mine you said. Half of the mine is underwater. The two subordinates didn''t go deep. They only dug two stones outside. Master, do you think so? "


    Zhuo Xi took the stone in his hand, looked carefully, nodded and said, "haven''t you found a place that doesn''t dry itself?"


    Zi Ran looked at Xiao soul. Xiao soul blushed, nodded gently, and muttered, "there seems to be, that is, I just can''t find the entrance."


    Zhuo Xi said strangely, "time is pressing, and it''s normal not to find it at the moment. Yes, why are you blushing? "


    Xiao soul''s face reddened. His head was almost low to his waist, leaving only one head for Zhuo Xi to see.


    Zhuo Xi looked at Zi Ran, but saw that he was also very forced, and didn''t know how to explain.


    A strange smile floated on her face, "you..."


    Xiao soul quickly raised his head and waved his hands like a fan, "Miss, don''t guess..."


    Zi Ran also hurriedly said, "master, don''t ruin the girl''s reputation... Really, there''s nothing..."


    Zhuo Xi looked at their faces carefully and said with a smile, "a girl who was originally called Master Cheng has become a girl who calls her name directly on weekdays... Dare you say there''s nothing? If you don''t find out, you''ll be incoherent? "


    The son suddenly became short, half down, half kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head and made up his mind, "master, my subordinates are willing to be responsible to the end!"


    Zhuo Xi threw his eyes on him like a knife, "what responsibility? How? Why be responsible? "


    Xiao soul looked at the master and Zi Ran, stamped his feet and said, "there was nothing. Which one should you be responsible for?! Master, don''t listen to his nonsense! I, I, I went out to prepare dinner! "


    "Come back!" Zhuo Xi called her, "you two have only done half of their work. Don''t find an excuse to escape!"


    The next day, a pigeon landed on the wall of an inn. The wind untied a thin bamboo tube from the clever pigeon leg at the top of the wall and presented it to Zhuo Xi. Immediately, Zhuo Xi spread the word "cool" written by Hou ye to everyone and announced that all the soldiers in the army would drive back to Liangzhou city in three ways. Only a few guards followed her to the border town of zhaojialing. Everyone was elated, and things finally made progress. Yu Liang and Jian Yi came up to ask for details. Zhuo Xi just showed it with the note and didn''t explain more to them. After Yu Liang insisted on the fifteen battalions he led, he finally set out and asked the other two battalions to withdraw to Liangzhou first. Zhuo Xi thought about it and agreed.


    That night, a potentially dark laser fell on a creature flying out of the yard. When she handed it to Zhuo Xi, she took a breath. It''s not a pigeon or a bird. It''s a bat. She couldn''t help sighing the wisdom of the ancients. Could she train bats?


    When Zhuo Xi was about to leave the next day, Yu Liang came sweating and asked, "girl, why can''t the soldiers of the seventh and tenth battalions be seen alone?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "aren''t you behind the mat? They started last night. "


    Yu Liang''s face turned red. "What do you suspect, girl?"


    Zhuo Xi said strangely, "what do I doubt about you? Have you done anything I doubt? "


    Yu Liang flopped down on his knees and said, "my subordinates have been following the Marquis since I was 14. When I guarded Liangzhou City, my subordinates were still a small soldier carrying the flag, but they took the lead and killed all the way to the end, inserting the flag into the enemy''s mountain. When attacking datan, Lord Hou was trapped in wansha city. His subordinates protected Lord Ziran and killed a bloody mouth and brought back reinforcements from Liangzhou. You also saw it when you were in the verdant mountain. My subordinates led the troops to lead away the enemy, almost completely annihilated and buried in the sea of fire. I''ve been traveling for more than eight years. Which time is not a sea of swords and fire? My subordinates know that you are secretly investigating the traitors, but if you are so loyal to your subordinates, you will be suspected, and the girl will not be afraid to cold the hearts of the soldiers! "


    Zhuo Xi took a sip of the newly brewed tea and said slowly, "it''s said that I shouldn''t have stabbed me in the army. It''s up to the Marquis to decide whether it''s loyalty or betrayal. However, the bats flying out of the yard last night were really seen by everyone. Oh, yes, your army started early in the morning. It''s understandable that you rested earlier. But when the officers and men of the seventh and tenth battalions were ready to go, they saw a bat flying out of your yard and being beaten down by the dark guard. All the people saw the small words taken out of the thin bamboo tube tied to the bat''s leg. Since you keep saying you shouldn''t doubt you, you should explain to the brothers of the seventh and tenth battalions why the bats you keep as pets in the army still have the function of informing the public? Even if you have the ability to send a message, why not send a message to the Marquis, but to the owner who doesn''t know his identity? If you are truly loyal to the Lord, can you tell me who your so-called master is? "

 Chapter 98

    Yu Liang was stunned for a moment, suddenly laughed and said, "no wonder my soldiers of the 15th battalion are sleepy at night and go to bed early. It''s because of the good doctor, miss!"


    Zhuo Xi stretched out a finger and shook it. "I''ve said it many times. I''m not a miracle doctor! I''m just a little pharmacological. So I''m also curious. It''s reasonable to say that your 15th battalion should not do anything. Why didn''t you sleep in the third watch last night? "


    Yu Liang said angrily, "my subordinates really slept until the fifth watch! The little beast has legs and can run and arms and can fly. If it is judged by the little beast that it was done by his subordinates, his subordinates will not accept it. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "in fact, what does it matter if you obey or disagree? It doesn''t matter whether you say it or not. I have known for a long time that your loyalty to the Lord only comes from your loyalty to that woman. I don''t have time to show you evidence and reason with you. I just want to ask, where did all the recruits you secretly recruited go when you were stationed in the suburbs of Beijing? "


    Yu Liang''s face became paler and paler when he heard the speech. At last, there was no support under his knee. He sat down on the ground and looked at Zhuo Xi in despair. His face was dead silent. His lips trembled, and it took him a long time to spit out a word, which could hardly be heard, "subordinates can''t say. Girl, do you know? "


    Zhuo Xi stared at him carefully and smiled gently, "just yelled at you. Where else do I not understand?"


    Yu Liang suddenly raised his eyes and said with a tragic smile, "hahaha, the original flaw is here. Lord, good, have negative trust! " When he drew out his knife from his waist, he would poke it into the pit of his heart.


    Zhuo Xi drank "stop!", One side of the figure flashed. It was a rain. With a clang, he knocked down the knife in his hand. He was stabbed into his chest by the tip of the knife.


    Yu Liang raised his blood red eyes, "why don''t you let me die, girl?"


    "Isn''t it too cheap for you to die like this?! Jian Yi, tie him up first. Let''s try again later! "


    "Yes," Jianyi replied. Tie Yu Liang up. Yu Liang didn''t resist.


    "Rain, where are the remaining soldiers of the 15th battalion?"


    "Master, they are all in the wing room of the left courtyard."


    "Take me there."


    "Yes."


    ¡±Oh, wait a minute, Jianfeng, you go to the back kitchen and bring some white noodles¡°


    Jianfeng looked at Zhuo Xi suspiciously for a while. Seeing that she had no desire to explain, she had to salute.


    Zhuo Xi arrived at the left yard with the rain. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw a group of black crows, neatly arranged and ready to go.


    Seeing them coming, a small soldier at the head of the platoon ran up, "Qi Chang, the 300th man of the 15th battalion, met his wife. Yes, sir. The two hundred men of the fifteenth battalion are all ready to start at any time. " He raised his eyes and saw Yu Liang tied behind him. He was shocked, "General Yu, you..."


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "this is the purpose of my coming today." She cleared her throat and shouted to the crowd, "General Yu''s adultery with the enemy bandits has been proved. Now you are led by Qi Chang and return to Liangzhou camp as planned."


    There was an uproar at the bottom. Many soldiers whispered and discussed. Others shouted, "General Yu has always been loyal. How can he have an affair with the enemy bandits?"


    "Oh, if you don''t believe me, you should believe him?" Zhuo Xi motioned Yi to let Yu Liang come forward, "tell me yourself, do you have another master?"


    Yu Liang gritted his teeth, stared at the people in front of him, and then lowered his head in shame.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "I''ve given him a chance to tell himself. Now you all believe it? " She paused and said to Qi Chang, "let''s go now. Don''t miss dinner time."


    Qi Chang arched his hand and said, "take command in a humble position!"


    "However, when I was in Kyoto, I heard that there was a custom in the northern army, that is, when the army has no head, step on white flour, dip in grain, and then start, you will bring good luck and save military merit. Maybe the vacant position of General Yu will fall on someone one day. "


    As soon as he said this, there was another uproar. A leading soldier laughed and asked, "madam, isn''t this fun?"


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "it''s just fun. As a woman, I don''t know anything about military affairs. I just heard that general Yu had an accident. I''m just afraid that there will be an accident on the way. You don''t have a competent person to command, so I can borrow that strange custom to ease my heart. If you don''t want to, you can not step on it. "


    The soldier laughed again, "it''s just stepping on the white face. Madam is not afraid to spoil the food. We have something to be afraid of? Everyone said, "isn''t it?"


    "Yes! Yes! " The sound of the rose one after another, mixed with all kinds of laughter.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and asked Jian Yi to put the newly moved white face on the threshold of the courtyard door.


    The soldier took the lead in stepping up, carried a marching package, and jumped twice on it, making white flour bags everywhere¡° Ha ha, fun! that ''s ok! Take some white flour to do meritorious service! "


    The soldiers behind also stepped up one by one. Some older soldiers stepped on it and left. For fun, they stepped on more feet. Soon, the outside of the white cloth bag slowly turned black.


    Suddenly, Zhuo Xi pulled a soldier in front of her and asked gently, "this little brother, I suddenly remembered that there was a sister married in Liangzhou city. Would you please take something to her house later?"


    The soldier nodded, "madam, it''s a piece of cake. Just tell me."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you wait here for a moment."


    The soldier stood still.


    Zhuo Xi ordered Jian Yi again, "it''s dark. Come quickly and turn it over so that they can have more luck!"


    Yi Yi changed the white bread with a sound.


    Zhuo Xi watched carefully. After the last soldier left, she pulled him out again, "this little brother..."


    The little soldier waited for her to go on.


    She immediately stepped back and shouted, "catch them both!"


    Between easy and between the wind and rain immediately rushed up. The last soldier and the one standing in front looked at each other, pulled out his waist knife and fought with them. But where are their opponents? Soon they were tied up!


    The soldier asked, "madam, what''s wrong with the children?"


    Zhuo Xi ignored and ordered Jian Yi, "open their marching package and check it carefully!"


    "Yes!" The three men of Jian Yi moved quickly and quickly found a bamboo tube from the package. At the moment of opening, a black object flew out. The rain on one side immediately waved his hand and shot it down. When it fell, everyone knew it was a bat.


    The soldiers who had gone out of the backyard heard the movement behind them and came back to watch. They saw a bat. A man shouted, "Heisan, no wonder you never let us touch the bamboo tube. You thought there was some treasure in it. It was such a small beast!"


    The black three said stiffly, "I just have a pet. What''s the matter? What royal law have you violated? "


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "I''m only responsible for finding you out. As for whether you have violated the king''s law and how to deal with it, we have to wait for the Marquis to come back and decide. Jian Yi, take them all down! "


    Heisan shouted, "why catch us? We disagree! "


    Zhuo Xi sneered again, "you know what the bat is for. Want to know why so many people step on white bread and only catch you two? " She looked around and found that all the soldiers were wide eyed and curious, "because only the soles of your two shoes stepped on the white bread! Here, when I went to look for clues yesterday, I found that there was something strange in the mark at the trigeminal intersection and questioned it loudly, so I specially ordered someone to sprinkle red mud there. If you didn''t have a ghost in your heart, how could you be stained with red mud? "


    People suddenly realized.


    Another quick witted, "madam, I''m wronged. I''m just worried about the marquis. I went out again all night."


    "Hehe," Zhuo Xi had to hehe, "bring Yu Liang up."


    Yu Liang was pushed over and scolded loudly, "Heisan, Liu He! I really didn''t expect that there was a traitor in the general''s team, and I didn''t expect that it was you two! You don''t know. If you drank the last with your brothers last night, you were all drugged by your wife and slept until dawn, where would you still have such spirit? Patrol in the middle of the night? If you don''t have something in mind, how can you miss the last bowl of lotus seed soup? "


    There was a ghost in their hearts, but they still argued: "my brothers don''t like to drink that lotus seed soup, can''t they..."


    "Hahaha," Qi Chang jumped out, "don''t you know? When the last lotus seed soup was presented last night, we all went back to the house to pack up. Boy, don''t you know that the damn fat cook took bowl by bowl to our room and watched us pour bowl by bowl before he left. He also said that this lotus seed soup is filled with tonic. Drinking it can make you powerful at the critical moment. If you don''t drink, you''ll lose a lot. "


    Heisan and Liu he have nothing to say. They were not in the room. Naturally, they didn''t drink lotus seed soup. They didn''t know that they had exposed their feet at that time.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "of course, it''s ok if you''re not in the room, but you all go to the trigeminal intersection at the same time. Dare you say you don''t have any conspiracy?" She waved her hand, "forget it, I''d better wait for the Marquis to judge you. I''m so tired. Take them both down. " The rain promised and pushed them to the wood house one by one.


    Zhuo Xi motioned Yu Liang to come up and smiled, "General Yu, don''t you want to say anything?"


    Yu Liang said angrily, "even if I ate all the 18 punishments in the army, I wouldn''t say anything!"


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. "There are 18 punishments in the army? However, if you want to be punished, first bring the soldiers of the 15th battalion back to Liangzhou City safely and hand over to the city guarding soldiers. "


    Yu Liang was surprised and asked, "girl, do you want me to continue to lead soldiers back to Liangzhou?"


    Zhuo Xi stood up impatiently. "I said, can I has the final say in appointing officers in the army? Besides, the five elements have been excluded by you. Now you are their commander and minister. Who will take them if you don''t take them? If you want to resign, you have to wait until the Marquis comes back! Go, go. "


    Yu Liang also said, "deputy commander Wu is not..."


    Zhuo Xi had asked Jian Yi to untie the rope for him, strode out, and said, "General Yu just joked with you. Stop playing and get out of here."


    When he reached the door of the inn, surprised Yan had already taken his cloak and waited outside. They went out together. Walking out of the dilapidated thatched courtyard, she couldn''t help looking at the sky. Jing Yuan, you just use the spies planted by my rival as loyal ministers, and you want me to pretend that I don''t know anything, so I''m not afraid to cold my heart?


    Zhaojialing is a small town. It is said that a long time ago, it was just a small gully between Wuliang and Zisang. At first, several hunters lived. Later, the two countries coexisted peacefully for many years, and the border was OK. The number of people exchanging trade between the two countries gradually increased, and some slowly fell to zhaojialing. If there are temporary ones, there will be permanent ones. Slowly, zhaojialing has changed from a small village to a small town. Now it is a big town.


    The former hills and valleys have long lost their desolation and poverty ridges. When Zhuo Xi saw the big town surrounded by the long city wall after a long desertification no man''s land for more than ten hours, it was very difficult to accept the name "zhaojialing". It is reasonable to say that the place named "Ling" should be lush with trees and dense forests, but in fact, they are desolate and barren land with poor ridges all the way. Only when Lao sun, who was driving the bus, told her that Zhao Jialing was coming, did she seem to see some green.


    Yes, she has been here for more than half a year. The overall feeling of this era is desolation and poverty. Even in the prosperous city of Kyoto where she settled before, she only felt that it was a rural town with a slightly dense population and slightly developed commerce, not to mention the smaller, more dilapidated and poorer countryside she saw when she went south. Some towns even have no commercial atmosphere. People need to be familiar with each other in order to have some limited barter business. Of course, she also knows that this is her view of this era from the perspective of modern commerce. It is a wrong logic to measure whether a society dominated by agriculture is developed by the development of commercial economy. In her opinion, the concept of a hundred hectares of fertile land and ten thousand stones in autumn harvest, which they are proud of, is a ridiculous pride of small-scale peasant economy, but she doesn''t know that this is the basis for the development of such an agricultural society. Therefore, in her view, this cool country is like a country assembled by groups of small rural areas. Only when the carriage bumps heavily through the Chengguan Road with deep ruts can she feel the irreversibility of ancient rural urbanization - no matter which dynasty or region, it is always the economic foundation that determines the superstructure.


    Of course, the particularity of this town lies not only in its slight prosperity and dense population, but also in its political status. Zi Ran said that Zhao Jialing is the first barrier against purple mulberry, but the reverse is the same. It is also the first barrier against purple mulberry. Zhao Kuo, the city Lord of Zhao Jialing, received a double reward. He was not only awarded by the state of Wuliang, but also recognized by the state of Zisang. It can be said that both Zhao Jialing and Zhao Jialing belong to the two countries. This formed Zhao Jialing''s strange independent status. Both countries suppress, guard against and spy on each other. The final result is that no one can send troops to this town. As for spies and the like, it depends on who is more capable. So there is no army in this town, only the private escort of the city owner maintains law and order. This model has been maintained for several years, and the monarchs of the two countries are deeply satisfied with this situation.


    After reading the last volume of information on the table, Zhuo Xi took a long breath and threw the bamboo tube down heavily. These materials of Zhao Jialing had already been collected and placed in front of her case when they opened from Qingyun town. In recent days, Zhuo Xi has read these bamboo slips in the car for days.


    Surprised Yan hurriedly picked up those bamboo tubes.


    She opened the curtains and looked at the rows of houses covered with grass and adobe, which were arranged neatly and regularly. This is an ancient border town built under the command of obvious administrative power. It can be seen that this is a catering street from the big flags flying "wine" in the past. She thought maybe the whole town had divided the functional areas, so she said to the old sun, "stop ahead and we''ll find the largest restaurant for dinner."


    The party entered what looked like the tallest and largest restaurant. It''s the highest. In fact, the roof is higher than others. It''s still a thatched house with only one floor. The thatched roof and the adobe wall are exposed by the wind and sun. Zhuo Xi finally knew where the desolation in her heart came from. It was the ubiquitous thatch, which publicized the sadness that wheat was abandoned after it was mature.


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes and tried not to look at these earthy yellow walls. She turned her eyes to the scattered tables and chairs in the store. It was dark. I don''t know how many people''s oil fingerprints were pressed on it, how many wine and vegetable hot soup were sprinkled on it, and even the fresh blood of various organisms might have been sprinkled on it. She closed her eyes again, forget it, don''t look or think. This is a very strange psychological hint. She immediately remembered the human flesh black shop in an adapted journey to the west, so that when she saw the waiter coming to greet him, she would carefully stare at the look on his face, as if she wanted to see a flower.


    Until the waiter, who had laughed like a flower, had a stiff smile on his face, and I didn''t know what the gorgeous owner meant by staring at him. He looked awkwardly at the girls next to him. The younger girl touched the woman in Chinese clothes. She was surprised to find a seat and sat down. He hurriedly placed the wooden cards with the names of the dishes and asked the Chinese woman to choose. Of course, he mainly put the expensive varieties near her. Sure enough, he saw that she picked up seven or eight nearby wooden cards, and then he walked away with satisfaction.


    Xiaoli and Xiaoji Xiaoguai chattered about what they had seen and heard along the way. What? The Wangfu stone at the gate of the city really looks like a woman, the Wannian pine next to her looks like a late returning husband, the name of the medicine written at the door of a medicine shop just passed by is missing two strokes, and so on.


    Jian Yi and Lao sun finally came in. Zhuo Xi motioned them to sit down and called Jian Yu and Jian Lei to have dinner together. Jian Yi had the highest position among them. Xiao Li cleverly moved his seat back and gave him the seat next to Zhuo Xi. Jian Yi was also impolite. He pressed the soft sword between his belly and took a warning look at all the people present, and then sat down next to Zhuo Xi. After sitting down, he whispered to Zhuo Xi, "the man who has been following us has also come, sitting on the outermost table."


    Zhuo Xi squinted and looked at the door. Because it was against the light, some could not see clearly. Instead, he looked at the strange tunnel, "how is it him?"


    Zhuo Xi asked, "do you know?"


    "It''s the white childe." Surprised, he covered his mouth and whispered, "no, it''s the prince."


    "It''s an old acquaintance. Please invite him over for a drink." Suddenly, he thought of his arrogant look. Where can ordinary servants answer? He said, "forget it. Let''s talk after dinner."


    Jian Yi Qi said, "master, do you know?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and asked Xiao Li, who kept talking, to explain what happened on the road to him. But it made Jian Yi more strange. "Master, the bow and crossbow you said can really shoot a hundred steps?"


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes and didn''t want to explain to him that 100 steps is 100 meters. What''s strange. The sniper rifle she used to use has a range of 3000 meters and is not affected by the wind.


    Jian Yi touched his nose and asked Xiao Li, "have you tried it? Is there really a hundred steps? "


    Xiao Li giggled, "of course, sister Xiao soul''s one is more powerful and can reach 120 steps."


    His eyes were straight. "Xiao soul also has one?" He looked at the rest of the people and found that no one looked envious, especially Lao sun''s Old God. He was even more depressed, "Lao sun, even you?"


    Zhuo Xi laughed at his sour tone and said generously, "if you want to try, go to the carriage and get it later. But when trying, remember to take back the three edged short arrow. Between rain and thunder, you can also try "


    The three of them were overjoyed.


    A voice sounded sarcastically, "the girl doesn''t say that she has military life. How can she give this new weapon to others so generously?"


    Zhuo Xi turned her head. Wang Qi was still standing behind her in white. He smiled, "it''s really fate that such a remote neighbor can meet an old friend. Why don''t you sit down and drink together? "


    At this time, the waiter brought the plate. Wang Qi gave way. Xiao Li hurriedly helped bring the dishes to the table, and moved back a seat. Jian Yi stood up and saluted Wang Qixing, "please, Mr. Wang, in the counselor of Baihui army in xialiangzhou."


    Wang Qi also saluted, "it''s a man in the army. It''s rude. " Well, since he is a man in the army, he can''t keep his mouth shut. However, he looked at the vacant seat beside Zhuo Xi, looked at the rest of the people, and frowned.


    Zhuo Xi took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped the chopsticks in her hand several times. She said, "Mr. Wang Qi came all the way to find me, but the girl in your family has something to bring me?" It''s inconvenient to have no napkins here.


    Wang Qi smiled bitterly and no longer hesitated. He lifted his clothes and sat down beside her. "The girl is really smart, but she''s not from my family. I''m just entrusted by my old friend to protect her."

 Chapter 100

    Yao Yao stopped walking to the jewelry store, turned around and looked at her, "don''t you want to be sold? Well, with which foot did you step on my skirt, cut off that foot. "


    The girl knocked more loudly when she heard the speech, "Miss, spare your life, miss..."


    The man was impatient and drank coldly, "didn''t you hear me?! What did miss snapshot say? " The threatening pressure scared the people around him not to say a word. Immediately, two bodyguards pulled down the stiff girl lying on the ground without expression.


    Yao Yao Mei smiled and took the man''s hand. "Brother yuan, let''s go."


    Seeing that they were going, "Hou..." surprised Yan took the lead in taking a step forward and was caught by Zhuo Xi. The sound attracted the attention of the two people. His eyes shot at the people like an ice blade. He was so worried that he immediately cooled down and dared not move. The three of Xiao Li in the back were even more. In an instant, they lowered their heads and didn''t dare to look at them.


    Yao Yao turns around and sees Zhuo Xi and Jing Yan. Her face changes greatly. Zhuo Xi didn''t have time to meet her, just staring at Jing Yuan.


    Yao Yao regained consciousness and nervously looked at the man beside her. Seeing that there was no wave on his face, she relaxed a little and asked tentatively, "brother yuan, do you know him?"


    The man looked back, shook his head and asked suspiciously, "Yao Er, should I know her?" Out of politeness, he asked Zhuo Xi from a distance, "girl, what''s the matter with you?" Yao Ya immediately closed her lips and stared at Zhuo Xi, holding the man''s hand and couldn''t help grasping it.


    Zhuo Xisheng stopped a burst of fishy sweetness in his mouth and shook his head slowly. "I''m surprised to the childe. It''s my girl who called the monkey. The skin monkey just took my money bag, so I thanked the childe here."


    Xiao Li rushed to the unconscious child in the corner of the wall and took out a purse from his right hand.


    "I don''t have to thank you. I just took the shot because I was afraid he might bump into ya''er. It happened. " He turned to Yao Yao, "Yao, let''s go." Yao Yao was obviously relieved, glared at Zhuo Xi fiercely, took him and lifted her feet into the pearl jade shop.


    Surprised speech was trembling all over. After a long time, he gently pulled Zhuo Xi''s sleeve and murmured, "Miss, miss, is that the Marquis?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head firmly, "No. You recognize the wrong person. "


    "No, no, it''s not good."


    Zhuo Xi touched her cold hand and asked, "what are you shaking? Cold or afraid? "


    Surprised Yan grabbed her hand and murmured, "Miss, is he really not a marquis? I''ve never seen him so cold. Standing so far away, I feel the strong sense of killing in his eyes. He must not be a marquis. How could he be that Marquis? "


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyes and looked at the opposite side. The two men had disappeared. Her heart sank when she thought of the strange cold eyes.


    She looked at the little beggar who was bleeding and unconscious at the corner of her mouth, sighed and asked Xiaoji and Xiaoguai to hire a carriage and transport it back to the inn first. She and Jingyan Xiaoli slowly walked back to the inn.


    When he returned to the inn, Xiao Ji had settled the little beggar, but he didn''t use drugs indiscriminately. He only cleaned his face and body. When Zhuo Xi arrived, Xiao Ji was still wiping the blood gushing from the corners of his mouth. She sighed and it was time for case teaching again. She took a rough look and found that there was no obvious trauma except the footprints on her chest. She came forward and touched the ribs on his chest. Her face changed. "Xiao Ji, please ask the shopkeeper to ask the best doctor in town to pick up the bone." The man''s foot was really cruel. At least four ribs were broken when he went down.


    When the doctor came, he corrected his broken bone and prescribed a prescription. It was already late at night. Zhuo Xi continued to test Xiaoli''s external herbal knowledge. Knowing that they had come all the way, without giving up their study and consolidation of herbal knowledge, she finally put them back to their room with satisfaction and went back to their room to have a rest.


    That night, Zhuo Xi fell into a half awake state again, as if she had a strange dream. She dreamed that she had returned to the small apartment in Hangzhou. It was the first small dwelling she bought with money. Because it was so commemorative, she never sold it. When she took her grandmother out of the nursing home, she lived in this small snail house. At that time, she played the role of an ordinary clerk of the company, and the goal was the superior chairman. It took her three months to keep the chairman''s close secretary sick and cold, so that she could take over some of her work. Although the task ended smoothly. But her regular nine to five life is one of the few important parts of her normal life with her grandmother. She often thought of grandma''s sentence "girl, are you back?!" when she opened the door after work Will feel warm. Later, when she left Hangzhou, her grandmother still lived in a small snail house for several years until she took her to a big villa in Shanghai. But grandma lived for a long time and kept talking about the small snail house.


    At the moment, she stood in the small snail house and looked around. The gray old furniture, dusty air-conditioning shutters and soft cloth sofa were all presented in front of her. The sewer in the kitchen sink always made a grunt. She actually heard the call of "Xi''er". She walked over strangely, and a cover was stuffed into the leaking slot of the sink, as if she had muffled all the sound in it. Xi''er, Xi''er''s voice became louder and more dull. Zhuo Xi slowly extended his right hand to the cover and suddenly grabbed the cover. When he wanted to pull it out, he felt that he was pulled down by the strength under the cover.


    So Zhuo Xi suddenly opened her eyes in the dark. The tip of the middle finger of her right hand hurt deeply. She instinctively retracted her hand, but she was tightly held by the other hand¡° Who is it? "


    A familiar breath came, and the figure hugged her tightly, "Xi''er, are you awake?"


    "Jing, Jing Yuan?" She asked in a trembling voice.


    He touched his chin on her shoulder, and the pain made her gasp.


    "You''re here. Didn''t I leave you a note to go to Liangzhou? "


    "Of course I''ll come. If you don''t come, how can you catch up with the city''s daughter''s wedding? How can you see the scene of your love? "


    He leaned against her shoulder, greedily smelled the smell of her neck, put his lips close to her neck and asked, "is it difficult for you to admit that being jealous?"


    Zhuo Xi hid the itchy feeling between her neck, "it''s not difficult, I admit, what if I''m jealous? Am I jealous? You cheap bridegroom won''t do it? It''s said that the city Lord''s dowry for her dry daughter is a big deal. He even added makeup to her with the Wannian pill that the king was not willing to offer. "


    "Ben Hou will cherish her dowry?" He slowly pushed her down on the bed, and his teeth gnawed on her neck and clavicle.


    "What do you want?"


    "What I want is you, my Xi''er, madam."


    Zhuo Xi moved the back of his neck, which was a little sour under his pressure, and pressed his restless palm. "I have to ask Hou Ye about this. Now I have become an abandoned woman in the eyes of insiders. Can all your rare things come to this end?"


    "Madam, no matter what others think, just trust me. For me, your trust is my biggest retreat. "


    Zhuo Xi said, "my trust is also limited. Don''t you see it flowing away bit by bit? Say! Where have you been with her? I saw her holding your hand. "


    "No! Which eye did you see? "


    "I saw it with both eyes."


    "What you see is not true. What you encounter is true." He moved his lips to her lips, rolled them over and over, and the tip of his tongue searched for her moisture. He held her face in his hand and stroked her eyebrows, her eyes, her nose and her lips inch by inch¡° Ben Hou misses you so much, Xi''er. "


    Zhuo Xi groaned and tried to raise her hand to hold his hand, but she felt an abnormal pain in her fingertips and woke up, "what did you just do to my hand? It hurts. "


    He grabbed her hand. "Just now I saw that you seemed to be in a nightmare. I couldn''t wake you up. I had to prick your fingers to make you wake up quickly."


    Zhuo Xi shook off his hand and put his middle finger into his mouth in the dark. There was still a smell of blood on the fingertip. She closed her eyes and asked, "did I faint again? Are you afraid you can''t wait for me to wake up? Are you in a hurry? What happened to my body? What are you doing? "


    He hugged her tightly without saying a word.


    "Xi''er, tomorrow, you take them back to Liangzhou first. Will Ben Hou go back to you when he has done something? "


    "No, I want to see you become the cheap husband. If you become the cheap husband in the bandit''s nest, I think my trust in you will come to an end."


    "Where is the bandit nest? I''m just staying at my cousin''s house for a little longer. "


    "Your stay is really impolite. It can be said to be fruitful." Zhuo Xi said it impolitely.


    Jing Yuan couldn''t help laughing. His chest shook with laughter. Zhuo Xi pushed him down reluctantly, "you''re very heavy, don''t you know? I can''t breathe. "


    He turned sideways and asked her to turn over, let her back lean on his chest, and put her fingers in from her waist. Zhuo Xi pressed his hand and said with difficulty, "Jing Yuan, believe it or not, or accept it or not, I have a certain degree of cleanliness. I don''t require two people to stay together, but at least they can''t step on two boats at the same time. You have been conscious and restrained before, so I don''t need to remind you. But I have to make it clear to you that if you can''t show a minimum of loyalty to our relationship, we''ll probably stop here. "


    His big palm undoubtedly reached into her profanity, hugged her more closely into his arms, and said with a sullen smile, "Xi''er, I won''t let you have this opportunity. I know what you''re talking about. Xi''er, I can only tell you that the child in her belly is not mine. So just trust me, not your eyes. "


    Zhuo Xi instantly felt relieved. Without the psychological burden, there was only the most private enjoyment between the two. She turned around and asked, "it''s amnesia and disappearance. Now there''s a steal dragon to Phoenix. Brother yuan, what are you playing?"


    He patted her on the hip, "don''t learn from her! It''s disgusting to hear Ben Hou. I like you to call my name. In other words, madam, we''ve been married for so long. Why didn''t you call me Xianggong, and so did the master? "


    "Marriage? We''re married? Why don''t I know? " Her hand began to fiddle with his skirt.

 Chapter 101

    "Heaven and earth can be proved, and the sun and moon can be used as a mirror! Madam, you can''t cheat! " He stripped her naked in two or three times and buried his head in her chest. But in the final analysis, it was his fault, especially when he thought of the scene of the two people in blood clothes, his heart trembled. So when he invaded the body and slowly entered, he attached it to her ear and said gently, "madam, when everything is finished, Ben Hou will give you a big marriage that all women in the world envy!"


    When the two men fell soundly on the bed for the third time, Zhuo Xi was very sleepy. As soon as his head tilted, he fell asleep. When I woke up the next day, I saw a mess on the bed and recalled the absurdity of last night. On the one hand, I deeply missed the convenient toilet in Furong Curie in Kyoto, and on the other hand, I secretly hated his wily and crafty. Why did he surround those important questions for no reason? Now others have disappeared again. I don''t know when they will appear next time.


    Thinking of this, she couldn''t help sighing again. One day yesterday, I experienced from hell to heaven, especially last night was my only night of dreamless sleep in recent months, and that sudden complete. Relaxed, she knew she cared more about him than she realized.


    When having breakfast, Zhuo Xi obviously found that the three men of Jian Yi looked relaxed and excited. It was obvious that they had received the news of the Lord and might have a new task. Zhuo Xi is too lazy to ask. The task she brought them to contact Jingyuan has been completed. What they like to do is what they do. But she was curious. What was the wedding two days later?


    Jianyi sent a message saying that 500 soldiers of the 15th battalion brought by Yu Liang had disappeared on the way back to Liangzhou. Zhuo Xi blinked and nodded to know. Where Jing Yuan was, she didn''t feel that such news needed her to know, and she didn''t bother to think about such things. The letter to Ma San had been sent by Zi Ran long ago. She believed that Zi Ran could handle the later things. As for the missing, why is it difficult to hide a mere 500 people in the mine cave in the hinterland?


    The biggest suspense is no longer suspense. The rest that can make people look forward to is Lin Lang said by Wang Qikou. If it is as she expected, she will finally have a friend with a common language in this different world.


    I heard that it was noon the next day when the little beggar woke up. Zhuo Xi ignored him, but told Jing Yan to let him rest slowly until he recovered and let him leave.


    All her attention is now on the "scalpel". She knew that it must have been her wound sewn for Cui Jiu, but she was still happy to have a person who had the same experience as her in this unaccompanied foreign land, whether it was an enemy or a friend.


    Although there were no suitable ironing tools here, she patiently found a seemingly attractive ironmaking shop in the process of shopping, and discussed with the blacksmith the academic problem of how to make a knife as thin as a cicada''s wing, and carried out full practice. Facts have proved that the wisdom of ancient people is endless. Two days later, Zhuo Xi finally got a thin and sharp "scalpel".


    Wang Qi, who had been with her, witnessed the whole process. At first, he was very interested in the material of the knife she took out. Then he watched it for two days in the blacksmith''s shop. At the beginning, he could join them in the discussion and say a few words, but later, his face looked more modest and less.


    Zhuo Xi was noncommittal about his behavior of secretly learning skills among the people, because without the refined iron refined through seven procedures, no matter how exquisite forging technology can create such a scalpel. Unfortunately, she only had a knife with a relatively high degree of purification in her hand. Ma San quietly created it and brought it to her when she needed to prepare the toolbox. Otherwise, she could use the carburizing method of adding carbon to the bellows to make two more scalpels. The quenching and low-temperature tempering methods were also a good method she was not familiar with. In this way, the degree of forging is almost comparable to that of hundred steelmaking. It seems that I have to write a letter to Ma San.


    She was full of expectation for Lin Lang''s arrival two days later, so she asked Wang Qi about her origin in detail.


    Wang Qi''s story is very similar to the origin of God she had heard before: 16 years ago, the secret abandoned baby case of the court was found by a big man behind the scenes. He wanted to cut down the roots and sent people to hunt down her all the way. However, the woman was very intelligent. She escaped countless assassinations all the way and finally fled to a neighboring country. Fortunately, she was secretly sheltered by an expert and changed her name for a moment of peace.


    After that, Wang Qi asked carefully, "since the girl is a sister to Lin Lang, why are we so far away from her? Miss Lin was born in the palace. Although she came out with the water, she has been growing up in the purple mulberry country since childhood. She entered the cool place more than half a month ago. You haven''t met before? " The meaning was obvious. He didn''t believe that they were sisters at all. If they were sisters, they must have found the wrong person.


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. She didn''t know how to explain to him that the two sisters who came from a distant future could only weakly say "distant relatives" and didn''t want to talk more. Distant relatives generally have very rich meanings, ranging from thousands of mountains and rivers to three generations of close relatives. But now these countries came out of the same Yudian country decades ago. It is normal for someone in any family to be involved with the purple mulberry royal family.


    Facts have proved that chatting really needs a common language. Zhuo Xi is afraid to say more and make more mistakes. In addition, she doesn''t know Wang Qi very well and has no obligation and interest to tell her everything. Wang Qi was afraid to ask more and looked suspicious. He had to stare at her with a pair of curious baby''s black eyes, hoping that she could solve his doubts. How can she bear to see that she had no consciousness in this regard. And Zhuo Xi obviously felt a cold sight coming from the dark, so she got up silently and went back to her room.


    Back to the room, he continued to daze at the dazzling posts on the table. In fact, there was no need for the post given in their room, because Yao Yao sent a formal invitation the next day. Zhuo Xi had prepared many props that she had planned to use at the wedding scene, but Jing Yuan''s explanation that night made her give up the plan. So now she is looking at the invitation with her name on it. It says to invite her to the wedding of "Yao Yao and Jingyuan". She didn''t know whether it was the foreshadowing left by Jing Yuan or the name written by "Jing Yuan"? She doesn''t believe Yao Yao doesn''t know the difference. Can she agree?


    Her second question is, is she going or not? Before the real Jingyuan appeared, she must go to the scene to have a look. Even if she didn''t post, she had to try her best to get in. Now his real body has appeared, and it is clear that the groom is not him, that is a stranger''s wedding. What is she going to do? Yao Yao doesn''t want to play with her. And the most important thing is that the wedding is tomorrow, and Lin Lang''s appointment with her is also tomorrow. Although I don''t know the specific time Lin Lang arrived, she didn''t want her to be there when she arrived.


    She was in a daze when suddenly Xiaobai, who had been sleeping on her legs, quickly swam down and ran straight out of the window. She was stunned. Before she knew what had happened, the whole person was tightly hugged from behind.


    Jing Yuan rubbed her hair and smiled softly, "Why are you stunned?"


    She said angrily, "what did you do to scare Xiaobai away? Do you know it''s a hero! I have made great contributions in Wulin mountain! "


    He shook his head innocently. "Ben Hou knew it was very hard when he was in Wulin mountain. No, he asked people to prepare a vole meal for him. They were all fat rats hiding in the hole. Isn''t it good?"


    She was relieved. "Well, since it''s a reward, let it have a good meal."


    He let go of her, turned to her and looked at her with eyes as deep as the sea.


    Zhuo Xi was so angry that he couldn''t help touching her cheek, "is there something on her face?"


    He pulled a smile from his lips, pulled down her hand and whispered, "I also want to have a full meal. Why don''t you reward Ben Hou." Then the invader pouted her lips, put his tongue into her, tossed and turned repeatedly, and felt very comfortable all over. It was less than two months since he left Kyoto. He never thought that he could care about a woman so much one day. When I couldn''t see her, I was worried all day. When I knew she was coming, I couldn''t wait to meet her. It''s still late at night before last day. You can make people unaware. It''s broad daylight now. If he appears here and is caught, it''s a great disadvantage. But he just couldn''t help coming to see her, touching her, hugging her and kissing her. So he came resolutely despite the opposition of the two dark guards. Only at this moment did he deeply feel that his restless and empty heart was quiet, full and extremely satisfied.


    For a long time, he let go of her, extended his long arm, held her tightly in his arms, and sighed, "Xi''er, what should I do with you?"


    Zhuo Xi said dully, "should I ask you this? Now I am fish and you are a knife. If tomorrow''s wedding is really you, I have nothing to do. "


    Jing Yuan laughed and touched her, then pinched out a thin rope and slowly pulled out a big bag of things. "Are you really helpless? When the dark guard came to tell me that you were buying medicinal materials with those three little girls, I really had a cold sweat for Yao Yao. "


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "it hasn''t been implemented yet. What are you worried about for her?"


    Jing Yuan took her waist, glanced at her stomach and said, "she is always my cousin, not to mention my nephew in her stomach. If I don''t show up in time, will she be alive tomorrow? What are the effects of these powders? "

 Chapter 102

    Zhuo Xi immediately caught the spoiler in his words: "your cousin''s stomach is pregnant with your nephew... He is your brother?"


    He shaved her nose. "Are you so smart that women all over the world can''t live?"


    She patted his hand angrily, "if you didn''t want me to know, how would I know? Well, well, I don''t intend to use these things. If you are useful in the army, I''ll give them to you. "


    She stood up, opened the medicine bag, pointed to the small bag packed inside and said, "this itching powder can make people itch for three days and three nights without medicine; This is a powerful camouflage medicine that makes people unconscious. This package is the amount of 500 people; When this powder is sprinkled in the air, it will make people sneeze until they are weak; This is soft tendon powder. It will make you weak; This...... "Zhuo Xi said at last, hesitated for a moment, or to be honest," this is brother Xiong. "


    Jing Yuan was speechless, "what is brother Xiong?"


    She lowered her eyes and said with a guilty heart, "that is, it is a medicine that men will lose their sexual function after taking it."


    He understood in an instant, narrowed his eyes dangerously and asked, "this was originally prepared for me?"


    She immediately ran across the table. "Who made you disappear? The news suddenly came out and became someone else''s bridegroom. Well, of course, I won''t use them blindly. I''ll wait until I confirm them. "


    Jing Yuan''s eyes stared more sharply, "do you mean to confirm that it''s me and give it to me?"


    Zhuo Xi righteously shrank in the corner, "this is not confirmed, isn''t it you? You... "


    As soon as Jing Yuan fished her long arm, he took her in his arms and ravaged her. "You''re really brave. If you eat your husband badly, your happiness will be hopeless for the rest of your life."


    She took him by the neck and winked like silk, "it doesn''t matter. There are no men anywhere in the world."


    He threw her directly into bed, "dare you! If you can''t, you can only spend your whole life with you. Don''t think of other men! " As he spoke, he grabbed his clothes and jumped up.


    She giggled. "It''s broad daylight, sir."


    "Haven''t you heard of sex in the daytime? Besides, what are you hiding from? "


    "I heard that young master Zhao has thirteen concubines and thirty greenhouse female slaves. Don''t you have any other ideas?"


    The man who was burying his head in chaos raised his eyes, looked at her suspiciously and asked, "what do you think?"


    "If you choose dozens of women, you don''t have a trace of envy, jealousy and hatred?"


    Jing Yuan was confused, "why envy, jealousy and hatred? Don''t you have what they have? "


    She held back her smile. "My fists are hard to beat my four hands."


    He raised his face buried in her arms and gave her a white look, "you can use no hands when I serve you. When you serve me, I only need two hands. Do you think I''m a boar? "


    "No, no, no, you are a duke, a male monkey." Zhuo Xi smiled, very boldly held his head, turned over and pressed him under, "so, sir, how about changing my house to serve you today?" Then he straightened his upper body and stretched out his hand to untie the belt of profanity he was wearing inside.


    But he wouldn''t let her go. He grabbed her hand, turned over again, pressed her down, leaned over her ear and whispered, "come for your husband."


    So she eagerly put her hands into his clothes and groped around his back.


    His eyes were deep. He stretched out his big hand to cover her eyes and said with a smile, "you can''t see it even if you want to see it so close."


    She suddenly stopped moving, put her right hand over his back, and gently bit her lower lip.


    He felt the eyelashes under his palm tickle his palm like a butterfly, and then immediately felt the hot liquid infiltrating his palm. He carefully removed his palm and watched her close her eyes, tears flowing. His heart ached almost instantly, holding her face and gently kissing her tears, he said softly, "Xi''er, don''t cry."


    She suddenly opened her eyes, took her hand out of his clothes, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, held him on the shoulder, pushed him with a strong push, and overturned him and lay on her back in bed. She tore his profanity like crazy, but she couldn''t tear it apart. She had to grope for the knot tied by the strap and untie it with force. He grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "madam, you''re so anxious. If the little girls outside the door hear it, you''ll probably rush in."


    Zhuo Xihong looked at him, broke away from his hand, and finally found a way to untie the damn dress belt. The moment she opened her clothes, she stared at her, and her eyes didn''t blink.


    Jing Yuan now feels like a clam whose shell has been opened. All the fresh, tender and fragile flesh in it is exposed in front of her without cover. He knows he can''t stop her visit, so he has to say in an embarrassed whisper, "Xi''er, I feel so cold for my husband."


    With a strange coolness on her fingertips, she stroked the ferocious wound, wiped her tears for a long time, and roared, "who did it?"


    He was silent and didn''t know how to answer, but he heard her ask again, "which quack healed your wound? It''s so ugly. "


    He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pull her into his arms. Then he strangely found that this posture seemed to be good, so he said with a thick old face, "Xi''er, this time, Ben Hou let you on it, really."


    She cried and laughed, bit him on the shoulder and said bitterly, "who is it?"


    He hissed, "madam, can you give me a signal before you start? It''s the old doctor Wang who followed the army. Never mind, they are all covered in their clothes. Who can see except madam? "


    She took another bite, "I mean, who gave me a cup?!"


    He was so surprised that he immediately forgot his original idea, pulled the quilt over them, helped her to one side and lay down. He asked, "what did Xi''er say?"


    "Don''t pretend to be a fool. I know I''m poisoned, so even Xiaobai can''t smell it. I just want to know, what Cup did I win? When is the cup? Who gave me the cup? Why give me a cup? What is the worst result? Is there a solution? "


    He stared round at her for a long time and sighed. The whole expression was desire and dissatisfaction. Finally, he said reluctantly, "I really can''t answer these series of questions. But Xi''er, don''t worry. Ben Hou has found out the eyebrows and eyes. Maybe he can get the antidote in a few days. "


    "If so, what do you have to worry about?" She took a look at his eyebrows.


    "Yes, yes..." his desire to speak and stop successfully caused her eyebrows to stand up. "It''s your husband and me. You may need to sacrifice your hue."


    She stepped forward and said, "is it related to Yao Yao Yao?"


    He hesitated for a moment, his face was a little cold, "eight or nine is not ten. But I don''t know why she did it. "


    "Isn''t it because of you?" She also sneered.


    He was silent. "In fact, she didn''t know anything about my injury."


    She stared round and realized in an instant, "although it has something to do with her, she doesn''t know my cup and the harm to you?"


    He nodded, "this cup is provided by Zhao, her mother family. Zhao has operated in this border town for decades. The earliest ancestor was the Youha nationality who came out of the mountains. A secret skill of making cups has been handed down for several generations. I just found it recently. "


    "Is there a solution?"


    "There should be, but this cup is divided into mother and son cup worms. I have to lead out the mother cup first before I can kill the cup in your body."


    Zhuo Xi helped the forehead, "so, do you have any plans for tomorrow?"


    He nodded, "you must go to tomorrow''s wedding. But you can''t carry any more sharp weapons. "


    "Do you mean that at tomorrow''s wedding, the people behind the scenes will repeat their old tricks?"


    He took her shoulder, put his head behind her ear and said stuffy, "well, at that time, the man will blow a very thin whistling sound to induce the cup insects in your body. At this time, the mother cup in her body will be ready to move. Only when she urges, can she lead out the mother cup. "


    "That man is surprised, isn''t he?"


    He patted her on the head. "Madam, can you not be so smart?"


    She grabbed his paw. "So you came here deliberately in the daytime to scare the snake?"


    He held her in his arms again. After this, both of them had slowly put out their thoughts and just wanted to talk well, "don''t worry, Ben Hou has arranged it. You just need to dress up tomorrow. Last time we knew nothing. This time, we came prepared and won''t let you have anything. "


    Zhuo Xi could not help but reach out and caress the ferocious wound on his chest, and slowly asked, "does it hurt?"


    "Pain." He said without thinking, quickly grabbed her hand and kissed her lips, "but it doesn''t hurt here. Ben Hou is heartache. You are implicated by me and hate the person who did it. Why did you stare at you! The key is Ben Hou. Open gun or hidden arrow. Just put your horse here. Since he moved you, I will spare him! "


    She was full of black lines. "Didn''t you just say you didn''t know who was behind the scenes and how not to spare the law?"


    "I will find out. This matter is the hand of surprised words. It must have something to do with the feather gate. Who did you think of her behind the scenes? "


    "Do you doubt Xianglan? No, no, no, it must not be her. Although she is the Lord of the eternal word, she has been sincerely looking for her relatives for so many years. She won''t risk the cup on me to deal with you. Besides, she has no grudge against you. Why did she attack you and me? It is estimated that the person who started the attack is not pleasing to both of us. It is to deal with you and me, killing two birds with one stone. "


    "It''s not Xianglan. Is there no other order master or sect master in the feather coat gate?"


    On her face, she remembered, "yes, it''s said that there is a sect leader who hides deeply. We don''t know who it is. But it is reasonable to say that the feather clothes sect is not only the protection organization of the former royal family, but also the blood of the former royal family. Why... "


    He held her hand tightly, "it can only show that you are not the real Chang word order Lord. They already know."


    Zhuo Xi thought of the four girls who lived next door and the girls who remained in sanxiangfang. She felt a pain in her heart. At the same time, she also thought of the 17 sisters in Xianglan. She didn''t believe that the sisters she gave them all would betray her. Although their time together was very short, she also treated each other sincerely and taught carefully. She had never been divided into master and servant. Who is the so-called sect leader?

 Chapter 103

    In line with the idea of startling the snake to the end, Jing Yuan appeared in the hotel in the evening and had a lively dinner with Zi Ran Jingyan and other guests. During this period, he expressed strong appreciation for Zi Ran''s performance in Qingyun town, Because he was only the late Wang Qi - it was a little unreasonable not to invite him as Zhuo Xi''s guest - his performance at the banquet was really intriguing.


    Wang: I heard that Hou Ye fell off the cliff and disappeared. He was here. It can be seen that the rumors can''t be believed.


    Hou: I really fell from the forgetting cliff. Unexpectedly, I was drifted here by the little Ganges River and was saved by cousin Yao ya. I''m really lucky.


    Wang: I really don''t know Miss Zhuo Xi. Now I know that she was a good waiter in your house. It''s really disrespectful. Miss Zhuo Xi, Mr. Wang said he was sorry for the many things he had offended before.


    Zhuo Xi quickly waved her hand and said no. Some Hou has a black face. Stare at her up and down and check: what? Did he hit you? Where?


    A king''s face is darker. I''m just polite, okay? What''s true?


    Zhuo Xi lost face and had to remedy it. Young master, you''re welcome. We hurt people first. Young master, it''s good not to blame.


    Hou was relieved to hear that someone had hurt each other. He was waiting for a proud praise. He also heard Wang''s warm invitation: Miss Zhuo Xi has arrived in the border town and has entered Zisang. How about taking this opportunity to visit Zisang?


    When a Hou heard this, he blew his hair. When he was dead, he immediately stopped and said: Wu Yishi is the appropriate servant of this Hou. She naturally wants to be where this Hou is.


    A king smiled faintly, "isn''t the Marquis going to marry a beautiful girl tomorrow? How can there be a shortage of people around? " Finally, he did not forget to joke, "are you not afraid of the bitterness and jealousy of the newly married Mrs. Hou?"


    Now he is sad and jealous, but he is not good, but he can''t attack, so he has to put on a cold face and say dryly, "it''s her duty to serve. Naturally, there are things she should do."


    Zhuo Xi quickly made a round of the game, "childe, Zhuo Xi is very kind. I really can''t go now because I''m on business. When I have leisure in the future, I''ll bother you again. I just hope you don''t think the little girl is in trouble. "


    A Wang smiled at the flowers and looked straight at the peach blossoms in the eyes of several women on the table. Some Hou''s aura is even colder. Does she dare to answer the appointment?


    Wang raised his glass, "it''s really a long time coming, girl. Wang must look forward to the girl''s visit."


    In the sight of a Hou as cold as a skate, Zhuo Xi can only ha ha and bring it over with other topics.


    The moment when the host and the guest had a good time soon passed. Jing Yuan ate a good dinner, patted his ass and left smartly, just like the leader who came to inspect and comfort him. He was satisfied to leave after he was full of wine and food. Well, if you don''t go to Wang Qi in care. But he was surprised. He wanted to ask and dared not ask countless times. Zhuo Xi couldn''t help sighing.


    The third day will arrive soon.


    Early in the morning, Zhuo Xi slowly put on the silk lining and showed her full expectation for the wedding. At breakfast, Jing Yan couldn''t help asking, "Miss, are you really going to attend the wedding of Miss Yao and ye?"


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and had no exploratory patience with the people around her who could betray herself. She replied stubbornly, "of course, if you don''t go, how can you see the scenes that make me remember my life?"


    The surprised speech was stifled, but she thought she was stiff and in a bad mood because the Marquis wanted to get married. Her mood was contradictory and painful. The young lady treated her like a mountain of kindness, but she also had unspeakable difficulties. She expressed her concern very deliberately, "Miss, that will also make you unhappy. You''d better not go? Didn''t you say you were waiting for Miss Lin Lang to come today? If she comes and pours in the air, don''t you want to break your promise? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her coldly. She didn''t know whether the servant who could be cruel to her death was a reminder of escape or a discovery of true conscience, "I''ve made up my mind. If Miss Lin comes early, ask her to wait a moment. I expect she will come back after lunch. I didn''t know her well enough to stay up until night. " She turned to Xiao Li and said to them, "Xiao Li, come with me to the wedding later. Xiaoji, Xiaoguai, you continue to look after the little beggar and stay in the inn with sister Jingyan. If Miss Lin comes, you will entertain her to eat and rest for a while. "


    Startled, his face turned pale. "No, miss, I''m going with you."


    "What? It''s not a tiger''s den. I won''t go and have a bowl of wine. "


    She exclaimed in a hurry, "Miss, although the city Lord''s residence is not a place of dragons and tigers, Miss Yao Yao has always regarded you as a thorn in the eye. It''s hard to guarantee that she won''t take this opportunity to trip you. Jingyan, Jingyan wants to be with Miss... "She gradually lowered her voice and lowered her head in Zhuo Xi''s eyes.


    Xiaoli looked at the suddenly excited Jingyan and was puzzled. The young lady has always been inseparable from Jingyan''s sister. What''s the reason for the young lady to leave her and take herself? The reaction of Jingyan was too intense. She looked at Jingyan and then at the young lady. Suddenly she saw the look in her eyes and hurriedly said, "young lady, sister Jingyan has the best martial arts. It only takes two people to stay in the inn to take care of Xiao Guang and wait for Miss Lin. why don''t you take sister Jingyan with you? If you want me to say, it''s better to hide the cross bow in the car. If there is really any emergency, we can also be prepared. "


    Zhuo Xi secretly praised Xiao Li''s cleverness, closed her eyes and nodded seriously, "well, Jingyan, go with us. Cross bow, too. Security cannot be relaxed at any time. " She looked at Jing Yan, who was obviously relaxed. She was a little sad. Jing Yan, I''ve given you one last chance.


    The three men took Lao sun''s carriage all the way outside the city master''s house. Lao sun had already inquired about the route, skillfully parked the carriage at the middle door, handed her a round egg at the moment Zhuo Xi got off, and then rushed the carriage to the side door to wait. Zhuo Xi pinched the round egg and said nothing. God, who can tell me whether this thing is pinched or thrown to the ground to explode?


    Under the guidance of the porter, she waited at the place where the women''s family members in the inner yard ate wine. Along the way, she looked at the blue round egg over and over several times, asked Jingyan and Xiaoli, and they didn''t know why. Looking straight back, Xiao soul, who has changed back to the identity of dark guard, suddenly turned his eyes and asked Qingtian speechless, miss, can you not present our own signal under other people''s eyelids?!


    Zhuo Xi put the round egg under the tip of her nose and smelled it. Unexpectedly, she smelled a little sulfur and saltpeter. She tightened her heart and secretly stuffed the round egg into her sleeve.


    The three quickly arrived at the waiting area. She sat down to drink tea and was surprised to say that she was separated from Xiao Li. Other local women chatted with each other. Zhuo Xi didn''t know any of them and didn''t want to know them, so she wholeheartedly looked at the chaotic tea soup, occasionally drank one mouthful, tried to find out its raw materials, suddenly remembered that Xiaobai was best at this job, so she was annoyed that she forgot to bring Xiaobai.


    Perhaps her reputation was too famous. Soon a middle-aged lady came over with her waist on her back. She looked like she was pregnant. Here, Zhuo Xi, a pregnant woman over 40, is rarely seen. It has to be admitted that in this era of slavery, men''s welfare is far more than women''s. Older women may not be unable to conceive, but they usually lose their husband''s favor due to old age, so fewer are pregnant. The woman in front of her didn''t seem to fall out of favor. She was wearing two symmetrical Phoenix shaped gold inlaid white jade hairpins, her earrings were also matched with gold inlaid white jade pendants, and a round white jade bracelet on her wrist, which was also lightly wrapped with wisps of empty gold cloud patterns. Such gold inlaid jade Zhuo Xi is rarely seen here. You know, she always thought that a large area of covered gold and jade was her own original creation. After all, she had never seen such a shape in other jewelry stores before the opening of Feiyu drunken jade Pavilion. Even in the palace and related occasions, she deliberately observed the jewelry shapes of ladies. She didn''t find such a fully covered gold and jade, or even jade is very rare, Whether white jade or emerald, gemstones are also rare. Even if there are gemstones, they are simply embedded in a simple metal base. Therefore, Feiyu drunk Yuxuan can be loved by the majority of ladies in a very short time. The big ruby is embedded under the wisp of empty gold grain, and its upstart light flashes out perfectly behind the gold, showing a low-key luxury. Which lady would not like? What''s more, the ruby can still appear in a complete set, which greatly improves the value than a single piece of jewelry.


    Now she looked at such a lady wearing luxury jewelry coming towards herself. For a moment, she didn''t understand her identity and purpose. The city Lord''s wife heard that she died a few years ago. Now Lin manger, the daughter-in-law of the city Lord, is in charge of the inner courtyard of the city Lord''s house, but she''s not old. Depending on the scene, Lin manger hasn''t appeared yet. Before she could figure out the identity of the lady, she came to her eyes and asked with a warm smile, "but the Marquis of Guang''an should serve miss zhuoxi?"

 Chapter 104

    Without hitting the smiling face, Zhuo Xi stood up and blessed the body slightly, "exactly. What do you call your wife? "


    "Old Liu Zhao''s hainiang, if you don''t mind, you can call me to express your aunt."


    Yao Yao''s cousin aunt? She calls her cousin with Yao Yao? Zhuo Xi''s anger rubbed up. She thought Yao Yao Yao was the only one who would challenge her in the city Lord''s house. Unexpectedly, her cousin who couldn''t beat eight poles came up first and gave her a knife. She said with a smile, "madam, Miss Yao Yao is at best my cousin of Guang''an Hou house. Although she is only a seven grade female official, But never dare to climb. " It''s obvious that a female official wants to shout to you, an elder, a woman in the border town. Isn''t that self defeating?


    Hearing the irony in her language, Liu Zhaoshi''s face stiffened. "Isn''t it that Yao''er is about to enter the Lord''s house? I''ll ask you to speak up. It''s really an offence to adults. Please forgive me for my ignorance."


    The proud color on Zhuo Xi''s face didn''t fade for half a minute. He was only surprised and asked, "madam, why do you say this? Miss Yao Guangan wants to enter the house? "


    Liu and Zhao were stunned. Doesn''t the whole city know that? What is she wearing here?


    Seeing that she didn''t answer, Zhuo Xi arched his hands and made a virtual salute to the north, "madam, the Lord is in charge of the affairs of the Hou house. If there is no will of the king, any rumors in the market can''t be true. The purpose of serving the Marquis is naturally to consider the reputation of the marquis. Madam, don''t spread false information, so as not to ruin the reputation of the marquis. "


    Li Zhaoshi didn''t know what confidence Zhuo Xi had in treating the future madam Hou in this way, but seeing that she was a stranger and aggressive, she couldn''t help licking her lips. "Miss Wu, you can''t say that. It''s a certainty that Yao''er will become madam Hou. You should polish your eyes and see clearly."


    Zhuo Xi smiled faintly, "Mrs. Li, if the Hou family really has a serious master, I will naturally respect the Lord. I won''t bother Mrs. Li. But now my Lord''s life and death are uncertain. Today, the little woman is also mindful of Miss Yao''s love of living in the Hou house for several days, so she doesn''t want to refute her face. Now I''m worried about the marquis. I''m afraid I can''t eat wine and vegetables. Please help yourself, madam. I''m sorry for your rudeness. "


    Relying on the authority of the city Lord, Li Zhao was used to domineering in Zhao City. He had never been so humiliated. Now he was pushed back by his words. He was trembling with anger. A finger pointed to the tip of Zhuo Xi''s nose, "you, you cheap hoof, think you can be so lawless when you climb up the Duke''s bed? After today''s worship with the Marquis, do you still respect her, madam? "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked, took a step back, but said loudly, "you mean, it''s my Marquis who worships Miss Yao?"


    The cry attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. Although everyone seemed to know privately that the groom was the missing Marquis of Guang''an in all likelihood, the Lord didn''t admit it, and there was no other evidence. All the words were released by Yao Ya and Lord Zhao. Therefore, Zhuo Xi''s yelling aroused the gossip of everyone. At any time, the confirmation and falsification of rumors are so attractive.


    That Li Zhaoshi was so yelled by her, suddenly realized what kind of mistake he had made, and his face was embarrassed, "I, I didn''t say that."


    Zhuo Xi was so excited that she said, "husband, madam, what you said is true? Is the Marquis really here? "


    Liu Zhao couldn''t get rid of it, and his face gradually flushed, "no, no, I don''t know, I just..."


    Zhuo Xi became more and more excited. She quickly held Jingyan and Xiaoli nearby and said with tears in her smile, "Jingyan, Xiaoli, she said, she said that the Lord Hou was here. God, we''ve been looking for him for so long, but we didn''t expect him to be here well, and..." she wiped her eyes with tears. "No, no, this is not the time to investigate this. If you''re okay, it''s okay."


    Surprised Yan looked at her acting and went deep into the scene. He was bitter and didn''t say anything. But Xiao Li turned to Liu Zhao smartly, "madam, you just said that it was Hou ye who paid homage to Miss Yao. Is it true? Where is the Marquis now? "


    Zhuo Xi turned to her with tears, "madam, please tell me the truth. We have been pursuing the whereabouts of the Marquis for a whole month and a half. We can''t eat and sleep at night. Now we can''t let go of a thread. As a good thing, tell me, where is the Marquis now? "


    Xiao soul in the dark wiped the sweat on his forehead. Master, will your acting be too realistic?


    Liu Zhaoshi looked at Zhuo Xi and was excited. For a moment, he was afraid of bad things and didn''t know how to end it. He had to turn his eyes. Ouch, he shouted, and his other hand immediately covered his abdomen. There was someone who knew her nearby. He hurried to help her and shouted, "eh? Where''s the sunny girl next to madam? Qing''er, where is this little hoof? "


    Liu Zhao said weakly, "she went to get a cloak for my car and will come right away. I''m fine. "


    Zhuo Xi wiped her tears, but she no longer forced each other. She had to shout twice in a hurry. Are you all right, madam? Then he watched as Liu and Zhao were helped to a chair and sat down.


    After a while, a maid really held a cloak in her hand and hurried to Liu Zhao''s side. Seeing a group of people around her, she quickly covered her cloak and asked her wife what happened. Everyone looked at Zhuo Xi eagerly. Zhuo Xi couldn''t stand idly by. He had to stretch out his hand, take a clean handkerchief and cover it on her wrist. He carefully took her pulse, and looked at her tongue coating from a distance. He just said that he was angry and attacked. It would be better to have a rest and drink some water.


    However, the maid named Qing''er asked anxiously, "Sir, you see my wife is sweating with pain. Your medical skills are excellent. Can you write a prescription to let my wife relieve the pain first?"


    Zhuo Xi secretly admired herself. She didn''t know whether the girl was intentional or on the spot. The sweat was obviously urgent before, and it became painful in her mouth. She didn''t know what Liu Zhao''s real purpose was and what role she played today. She didn''t dare to stretch out her hand rashly. She was very careful when she touched her. Now she was more vigilant when she heard Qing''er say, "girl, it''s three poisons of medicine. Don''t say your wife is pregnant. Even ordinary people can''t take drugs at will. You''d better find a place for your wife to have a rest and drink some warm water. "


    Qing''er was fierce in both voice and color. "It''s a waste of adults'' medical skills. Now I''m watching my wife''s pain and stand idly by. What''s your heart?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with a smile. "I don''t prescribe medicine. It''s convenient for me. But you want me to prescribe medicine. Do you want to take the opportunity to do something in the medicine to harm your wife? What do you mean? "


    Qing Er choked so much that she didn''t know how to answer. She had to bend over and look at Liu Zhao, "madam, how do you feel?"


    Liu Zhao groaned and said, "it hurts, it hurts, it hurts to death."


    Zhuo Xi looked coldly and asked, "madam is pregnant for more than five months?"


    Qing''er nodded, "exactly."


    "The five month old fetus is stable, and it is impossible for it to have a miscarriage. You''d better lie back and rest. You''d better rest all your mind, and your body will naturally be all right. Anyway, the body is the most important, madam, don''t you think? "


    Liu Zhao''s heart was startled. He didn''t know if the other party had noticed anything, but he had to hold back. He hummed and asked Qing''er to help him up and walk to the inner room. Before walking, he seemed to have a look at the startled words.


    Zhuo Xi also looked at the surprised speech. Seeing her look painful and tangled, she sighed and looked eagerly at the women''s families around. The women saw that the excitement had dispersed and no one wanted to get into trouble, so no one answered her eyes. With a long sigh, she sat down again and waited.


    After a while, Lin manger, the daughter-in-law of Zhao Kuo, the head of the city Lord''s house, came out to greet everyone for a while. This Lin manger is a straightforward man, with elegant manners and decent conversation. He greeted all the women''s family members around and invited them to sit at the table.


    At the banquet, the master and the slaves were naturally not in the same room. When she left, she specially asked Xiao Li, "don''t separate you two, so that I won''t find you two when I leave the table."


    When Zhuo Xi was led to the banquet alone, she was surprised that the dessert was gone? She was also wary of Lin manger, who was late to show up. As a result, she just looked up and down and said a word of thanks to Lord Yishi for coming all the way. She hasn''t even taken the move yet, or has she already taken the move again?


    Unfortunately, Liu and Zhao were arranged next to her.


    Liu Zhao sat down with a smile on his face and introduced her to other women''s relatives on the table one by one. They are all elders and relatives in all directions of the city master''s residence. It seems that it is also appropriate for such a group to sit together.


    Zhuo Xi greeted them with a little courtesy and sat down. The food on the table has been distributed and arranged.


    Liu Zhaoshi had already picked up the oil tea she had just added in front of her, took a sip and asked, "but the girl has grown up in Kyoto since childhood?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the muddy tea noodles in front of her. She really had no desire to drink. She said lack of interest, "it''s not true." She smelled the oil tea. It didn''t seem sour?


    Liu Zhao put down his tea cup, stained the tea stains on the corners of his mouth with his handkerchief and smiled, "girl, I''m from Kyoto. I''m sure I can''t get used to the tea in our border town. When it comes to this tea, I still think this border town oil tea is the most powerful, third sister, don''t you think? " She suddenly turned to an old woman opposite. The old woman nodded, "no, this oil tea brings more than ten kinds of spices, each of which can make people smell."


    Zhuo Xi skimmed her mouth, took spices, cut them into fine pieces and drank them directly. The taste can really make life loveless. She knew that spices were precious and scarce in ancient times. Rich people used this kind of tea to show off their family wealth. It''s rare for ordinary people to have one kind of spice in their dishes. Moreover, these people drink more than a dozen kinds of tea at once.


    "Isn''t it......" Liu Zhaoshi began to talk excitedly, but suddenly turned his head and retched. She buckled her throat and waved to the maid standing on the side of the hall.


    Zhuo Xi immediately sounded the alarm and leaned away from her.


    The maid came and whispered to Liu Zhao, then turned and left.

 Chapter 105

    After a while, the maid brought a large bowl of black hot soup and filled a bowl for Liu and Zhao.


    Liu Zhao quickly picked it up, Gulu Gulu drank it, and sighed with relief, "it''s comfortable..."


    The woman next to her asked, "Hai Niang, what are you drinking?"


    Liu Zhaoshi hurriedly promoted, "I somehow drank the oil tea. It seems that I feel sick and want to vomit, so I think of the way to stop vomiting earlier. This is the soup made of sour plum. I feel comfortable as soon as I drink it. " She immediately raised her spirits, "Hey, I tell you, this plum soup doesn''t have to be taken by pregnant people. The old man in my family often has a little loss of appetite. Once you drink this soup, you can eat three bowls of rice immediately!"


    The woman beside opened her eyes. "Really?"


    Liu Zhao said proudly, "seriously! It''s said that it''s a blessing for people to eat when they are old. They''re afraid that someone who loves his head and can''t eat. With this soup, they can eat before and after dinner, not to mention how good it is. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded. "Plum has the effect of appetizing and relaxing Qi. It doesn''t hurt to eat some everyday."


    Sure enough, at the next moment, Liu Zhao eagerly picked up the spoon, "come on, let''s all drink a little and warm our stomach."


    Zhuo Xi watched her take the empty bowl in front of her and fill it with soup. She quickly grabbed the bowl, "madam, I''m afraid of eating sour. Really, I''m afraid of eating sour when I beat children."


    Liu Zhao pressed the bowl to prevent her from taking it away. With his other hand, he poured the spoon forcefully. "This soup is sweet, sour and sweet. If you don''t believe it, have a try."


    Zhuo Xi endured the sour smell in her stomach. She only felt that her teeth were sour and stopped talking. She watched Liu Zhao fill the soup according to others'' bowls.


    So the table became lively, and everyone drank plum soup before the meal.


    A big curtain next door is the main hall, where all the men sit. You can already hear a clear cry, "new people arrive ~"


    Everyone calmed down and looked sideways at the curtain. I saw two figures, one black and one red, slowly entering the main hall.


    Si Li Xi Niang said a string of auspicious words and commanded them to pay three obeisances.


    Zhuo Xi vaguely saw a huaiwu figure sitting on the main seat and a female elder sitting on the side seat, probably an aunt and so on.


    Soon after three days of worship, my aunt drank tea and said something to end the blessing. Xi Niang shouted, "Li Cheng, send it to the bridal chamber and make a wedding ceremony..."


    Zhuo Xi obviously felt that the people on this side seemed relieved. Anyway, the wedding was a certainty.


    Seeing Zhuo Xi''s look, Liu Zhao seemed confused.


    Zhuo Xi reacted, quickly showed an anxious look, and quietly said in Liu Zhao''s ear, "madam, the bridegroom was too far away just now. Is he really my lord? "


    Seeing that the old story was mentioned again, Liu Zhao quickly waved his hand and whispered, "I don''t know. Later, the bridegroom will come alone to propose a toast. You''ll know as soon as you see it."


    Zhuo Xi was slightly surprised. She didn''t know the process of their marriage, so she asked curiously, "is this process still more complicated?"


    Liu Zhao smiled, but did not forget to remind her of the plum soup in front of her, "I rely on the old to sell the old. Let me tell you about the most complex wedding ceremony in this border town... Eh? Girl, you''d better drink this soup while it''s hot. "


    Zhuo Xi reluctantly picked up plum soup and drank it behind her sleeve.


    Liu Zhaoshi talked a lot, and finally didn''t forget to add "but this regulation can''t be compared with the people of Kyoto aristocratic family, and even less than the king..." she suddenly felt that she had lost her words and quickly covered her mouth.


    At this time, Lin manger, the leader, had announced that he could open the banquet. For a moment, he was full of wine and excitement.


    Zhuo Xi raised her chopsticks and ate a little symbolically. She began to get impatient.


    While they were waiting anxiously, Liu Zhao suddenly changed his face, stroked his abdomen and shouted, "ouch". They looked at her strangely, and saw that she reluctantly held her abdomen and wanted to stand up. There was sweat on her forehead, but she bit her lip and no longer made a sound.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her strangely. It is reasonable that she should stay here and wait for the groom to appear.


    Liu Zhao also looked at Zhuo Xi strangely and said with a forced smile, "I have something bad to eat. Go, go..." before she finished, she fell down in a chair with pain, pale and weak.


    The woman next to her quickly called the maid. The maid had sharp eyes and didn''t dare to move. She hurried out to the side hall and called Qing''er over.


    Zhuo Xi hesitated to make another hand diagnosis. Qing''er ran over in a hurry. Seeing Liu Zhao''s appearance, she threw away the melon seeds she was eating in her hand, regardless of whether they were spilled on others. She grabbed Liu Zhao''s cloak on the back of the chair, helped Liu Zhao, and shouted, "madam, how are you? Why don''t you go to the back hall? "


    The other women nodded again and again, "I just saw that she was not healthy, so I''d better go and have a rest." The third sister opposite said coldly, "they all say you are heavy. Don''t come to join the fun. You don''t listen. Go to the back room and lie down. Don''t anything happen. "


    Liu and Zhao were speechless. Big sweat came out and wet their temples.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t look like she was pretending, and she didn''t look like Qing''er.


    At this time, Qing''er also looked at Zhuo Xi and sneered, "should you serve adults or stand by? Don''t you think it''s a fake, madam? "


    The third sister across the street suddenly said, "by the way, I heard that the girl has excellent medical skills. If you don''t diagnose the pulse for the little sister, let''s see what the situation is?"


    Before Zhuo Xi answered, Qing''er shouted anxiously, "madam, madam, how are you? I will help you to lie down first. "


    Seeing that she was going to faint, Qing''er quickly put her cloak on her, took her with both hands and walked out with difficulty. As she walked, she didn''t forget to look back and shout, "Sir, please go to the back hall to diagnose the pulse for her wife."


    All the people nearby said, "yes, just take a pulse, in case the child in her stomach has anything..."


    Zhuo Xi stood up with a stiff head under the eager eyes of the women''s families, and supported Liu Zhao''s family to go out from the other side.


    But the Liu Zhao family suddenly struggled and seemed to shake off Zhuo Xi''s hand. Zhuo Xi quickly took advantage of the situation to take a step back and left her a little far away. Qing er''s hand wrapped around Liu Zhao''s waist suddenly grabbed Zhuo Xi, "Sir, please do me a favor."


    Zhuo Xi''s sleeve was clenched in the palm of her hand and staggered for two steps. The three people walked together. It looked like she and Qing''er helped Liu Zhaoshi together. She''s a little strange. The plot seems a little different from her imagination?


    Then the bridegroom came in through the curtain surrounded by a group of people.


    Zhuo Xi and his four eyes were opposite, and suddenly it seemed that time and space were still.


    The man was handsome, indifferent and had no waves in his eyes, but it seemed that everything was in his eyes and everything was not in his eyes.


    Zhuo Xi as like as two peas, he knew that he was not him, though he was the same facial features.


    But her brain preceded her rational action. Her footsteps stagnated, and even the strength of Qing''er pulling her sleeve couldn''t force her. She finally stopped, stood there and looked at him.


    The venue was silent, with only the footsteps of the man and the people behind him. The sound came to our ears and approached. Zhuo Xi bit the tip of her tongue desperately. In exchange for a trace of intelligence, she found that the dagger hidden in the sleeve of her right hand had slipped into the palm of her hand.


    The man walked slowly towards the main seat and was about to pass her. Qing''er suddenly clutched her, and her thumb seemed to dig into her left arm. Zhuo Xi felt more clear-minded. He raised his feet rigidly, so that he didn''t look at him with all his strength, so that he went with the two people with difficulty.


    At that moment, she felt that the person qinger helped was not Liu Zhaoshi, but her across Liu Zhaoshi. Something flashed through my mind.


    Passing by the side hall, Zhuo Xi weakly called Xiao Li, and Xiao Li ran out to a wing room in the inner hall with them.


    On the way, Xiao Li hurriedly explained to Zhuo Xi, "sister Jingyan just said she had a stomachache and went to find a convenient place." Zhuo Xi''s brain was so dull that she didn''t expect to see Jing Yan. She must hide in an unknown corner to blow her Xiao.


    Qing''er left Liu and Zhao on the bed and stopped caring about her. After sitting aside and taking a breath, she slowly took out melon seeds and knocked them up.


    Zhuo Xi was sweating, trembling and dropping the little dagger. Xiao Li grabbed her hand. It was full of blood and screamed with fear, "Miss, what''s the matter with you?"


    Zhuo Xi cut the palm of her hand with the dagger, and then stopped the palpitation in her head.


    Zhuo Xi handed her hands to Xiao Li and said, "tie me up first."


    Xiao Li cried and shook her head. "No, no, miss, what''s the matter with you?"


    Qing''er listened, shook her head and said, "no, it should be all right now."


    Zhuo Xi loosened all over and motioned Xiao Li to pick up the dagger. While slowly wiping the blood on it with her skirt, she looked at Qing''er, "you''re not Qing''er."


    Xiao Li immediately tore off a lining, took out the powder Zhuo Xi had hidden in her arms, sprinkled it on the wound, and then wrapped Zhuo Xi''s right hand.


    Qing''er smiled, "who am I?"


    "You are Lin lang." Zhuo Xi said with certainty.


    Miss Zhuo couldn''t help looking at her work. "But miss Zhuo Xi asked her in surprise again."


    Zhuo Xi stretched out her uninjured right hand, grabbed a melon seed from Qing''er''s hand, knocked it out in her mouth and nodded with satisfaction, "walnut flavor, I like it too. Can you find all these spices? Give me the recipe share later. "


    Qing''er thumbed up, "smartgirl."


    Zhuo Xi jumped up, gave her a big hug and said to her in English, "so you''re really a name from 21 centrytoo?"


    Qing''er, no, Lin Lang answered, "yes, how do you come here?"


    The two people excitedly exchanged some ways and experiences of wearing, and discussed the issues of soul wearing or body wearing for a long time. Only then did they find that a serious problem was that neither of them could find any clues to wear back. So he calmed down and looked around, only to see that Liu Zhaohe, who was in a coma in front of him, had completely fooled Xiao Li.

 Chapter 106

    Zhuo Xi pulled her skirt, straightened the front swing, and sat back in place. It seemed that the scene had never happened before. She nodded her chin to the Liu Zhao, "don''t you explain?"


    Lin Lang tore off the human skin mask on his face and revealed a delicate facial features, "when did you start?"


    Looking at her action, Zhuo Xi immediately understood why Wang Qi and Cui Jiu could mistake her for Lin lang. with this skill, who was different?


    "Let''s start when you arrive at zhaojialing."


    "I arrived at zhaojialing early yesterday. I wanted to spy on Laifu inn to surprise you, but I heard your dialogue with the marquis."


    Zhuo Xi blushed, but found a flaw, "are you good at martial arts?"


    "No, I don''t know martial arts." Lin Lang also found out, "it''s impossible for me to hide outside your door and eavesdrop. There are countless bright and dark guards of your marquis. How could I be so stupid and sweet to send them to the door?" She knocked another melon seed. "In fact, this Laifu inn is mine."


    "What?!"


    Lin Lang said with a smile, "you know, a little girl has lost her parents since she was a child. Of course, she has to have a career to live in this border town."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "so your inn set up a secret way?"


    Lin Lang shrugged and said, "it can''t be said to be a secret way, but I modified its sound system so that I can accurately hear your voice without sticking it next to you."


    "Then?"


    "Then I went to the city master''s residence overnight to find out the clues. I know they want to find a way to feed you sour plum today, so that you can lose your mind when you see that person, kill him, and catch him in public, so as to achieve their goal of killing two birds with one stone."


    Zhuo Xi puzzled, "this is also what I feel strange. Today I didn''t drink a mouthful of plum soup. Why did I also have a different reaction? And why did they try to feed me sour plums? Shouldn''t this work be done by Jingyan? "


    At that time, she remembered what Jingyan whispered in her ear before she left. It was also at that time that she finally understood the purpose of Liu Zhao today.


    She said, miss, remember not to eat anything with sour plum.


    dark plum? She remembered that night of the Lantern Festival, when she took a group of people out to Meng, she bought many snacks and ate them while walking. It seemed that there was a sour plum in the middle?


    At first, she didn''t understand that she didn''t have the habit of eating sour plum at ordinary times, and she wouldn''t eat sour plum at this wedding banquet inexplicably, not to mention who would bring sour plum at this wedding banquet for no reason? Now that Liu and Zhao have made such a fuss, she suddenly understands. But what is the function of sour plum? Is it the introduction to launch the cup? But she really didn''t drink a drop of plum soup. Her mouthful under her sleeve was just an act.


    What else? She is the best person who can get sour plum unknowingly. Why doesn''t she do it? Her last reminder showed that she had refused the order of the person behind it. What would happen if she resisted? Zhuo Xi was in a cold sweat and hurriedly looked at Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, go find Jing Yan and see where she is? Do what? "


    Xiao Li knew a little and didn''t dare to ask more. Finally, she tied a bow on Zhuo Xi''s left hand and stood up.


    Zhuo Xi held her again. "Go quietly and don''t be found by others. If there is anything unusual, don''t be impulsive and come back quietly to tell me. Your own safety is the most important. "


    Xiao Li swallowed her doubts and hesitated, "Miss, your side..."


    "It''s all right here for the time being, not to mention your sister Xiao."


    Xiao Li thought and ran out.


    Lin Lang always looked at them with a smile. They naturally brought a feeling of trust, which made her feel very happy, so she analyzed and said, "although you were prompted to send that Gu, the reaction was not strong, right? I speculate that they feed you sour plums not to make sour plums trigger insects in your body, but to make your body secrete a lot of bile and gastric acid. These chemicals are the basis for the excitement of the insect. When plum soup appears in front of you, your body will react. But because you didn''t eat it, you didn''t secrete much bile and gastric acid, which can only make the insect react a little. "


    "Then you did hear the whistling?" This is her Zhuo Xi shook her head, "I don''t know, just a few days ago. You''re great. I''ve prepared some things, but I can''t use them. "

 Chapter 107

    When the two of them approached, before they spoke, the woman shouted, "who are you? How dare you break into here at will?"


    Yao Yao raised her head from her arms, swollen two big walnut eyes. Seeing that she was an acquaintance, she couldn''t help choking and asked, "Why are you here?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the two people beside her and said to the woman just now, "is Miss Yao okay? I don''t know what to call this lady? My junior officer is Wu Yuan, the appropriate servant of the Marquis of Guang''an. You can call me Zhuo Xi. Today, I was invited by Miss Yao Yao to attend her wedding. It''s never right to congratulate Miss Biao personally. I just heard the loud noise here. I''m worried about Miss Biao. I came to visit. I can see that Miss Biao was unharmed. I''m relieved. "


    Zhao Kuo sounded like a loud bell, "is there anyone from the Marquis of Guang''an? Why don''t I know? " He hurriedly pulled over the silent bridegroom and stared at Zhuo Xi. Although Yao Yao Yao repeatedly assured him that this person was the Marquis of Guang''an, Jing Yuan didn''t admit it on the grounds of amnesia. Although he heard that the Marquis of Guang''an was missing, he disappeared and released, but no one came to look for him. He was really uncertain. Now I heard that Yi Shi from the Marquis of Guang''an came. No matter what official she is, she always knows her own Marquis, right? He was eager to know the real identity of the man next to him from Zhuo Xi.


    Sure enough, Zhuo Xi opened her eyes and mouth in surprise when she saw this man. After a long time, she murmured, "this man, how does this man look so like our master?"


    Zhao Kuo is like thunder and thunder, like? Like means "no"? Otherwise, how can a servant not recognize his master?


    Zhuo Xi walked around him again. "It''s so similar."


    Yao Yao dried her tears and angrily said, "what is it like?! He is brother yuan! Zhuo Xi, I kindly invited you to have a wedding drink. You don''t even know your master?! "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with a smile, "Miss Biao, it''s normal for you to recognize him wrong because you haven''t lived with the Marquis for a long time. I have served him for a long time. Do you know him day and night? I don''t know what to call you? "


    She turned to the bridegroom in black.


    The man gave her a little salute. "You''re polite, girl. All my memories began half a month ago after she was rescued by a beggar on the Bank of the Heng river. I don''t know anything about anything before, so I don''t remember my real name. Now she calls me Jing Yuan. So I can only temporarily call it Jingyuan, the scenery of Jingyuan, the vitality of Yuanyuan. "


    "You don''t doubt that she called another Jing Yuan?" No doubt she sees you as a substitute? She questioned in her heart, but her mouth was not so sharp, but she believed he understood. But on second thought, he insisted on changing Jingyuan into Jingyuan. How could he not know that he might be just a shadow?


    As expected, Jing Yuan smiled bitterly, "the girl saved my life and treated me with love. Now we are married and everything has settled. I am satisfied to have the girl with me for the rest of my life."


    Yao Ya was furious when she heard this. "Zhuo Xi, this is not the Marquis of the capital. Don''t talk nonsense here! Brother yuan just temporarily lost his memory and didn''t remember where his name came from. What''s strange? When he returns to Kyoto, someone will recognize him! "


    The woman also echoed her voice and said, "Fang ER and the Marquis have been together day and night for more than half a month. Don''t you recognize his reason?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "it''s too easy to verify whether a person is true or false. First, although his appearance is the same as that of my Lord, his overall temperament is far from that of my Lord. It is said that the eyes are the window of the soul. Although his eyes are empty, there is no past and he has lost his memory, I believe if my master really loses his memory, his pride and vigilance will never be lost. Second, one can lose his memory, but he can''t lose his martial arts. Martial arts is a kind of instinct for a martial arts practitioner. I am a general commanding 100000 troops. I have excellent martial arts. Sir, can you fly to the roof and let me have a look? " She looked at Jing Yuan shaking her head and Yao Yao Yao, who turned pale, and took the last strong medicine. "Everyone in Kyoto knows the battle of wansha city. Hou Ye was hit by three arrows, one in the chest, one in the left abdomen and the other in the right shoulder. Excuse me, do you have these three arrow wounds? "


    Jingyuan shook his head again and gently grasped Yao Yao Yao''s right hand. Yao Yao threw away his hand, stroked her chest with her left hand, and her face was pale.


    Suddenly a voice came out of the door, "Ben Hou doesn''t know. Xi''er, you know Ben Hou so well?"


    Jing Yuan came in stride with Zi Ran and others.


    The porter''s servant bent over to apologize to Zhao Gua with an uneasy face, "the city Lord forgives me. Lord Guang''an said that he heard the sound of Thunderstorm in the house. The situation is urgent and can''t be informed by villains, so, so..."


    Zhao Kuo immediately waved his hand and bowed, "it''s the honor of the shelter. It''s impolite to be an official. This is an inner courtyard house. It''s a mess. It''s better to go to the outside reception hall and have a few drinks with the marquis. "


    Jing Yuan waved his hand and stepped forward again, holding Zhuo Xi''s waist with a smile, "Xi''er, Ben Hou is back, which makes you worried."


    Yao Yao pointed at them in amazement, her chest heaved violently and couldn''t speak.


    Jing Yuan saw her and nodded at her, "cousin, you look good. Today, I suddenly heard of your wedding. My cousin didn''t have time to prepare any gifts. Will you make them up for you after returning to Kyoto? "


    Zhuo Xi twisted her waist uneasily. What looks good? Does she open her eyes and lie?


    The woman also looked disdainfully at Jing Yuan''s hand around Zhuo Xi''s waist. Jing Yuan smiled again, his eyes stuck to Zhuo Xi''s face and couldn''t pull it off. "Yes, I forgot to tell you that Zhuo Xi is not only the appropriate waiter of Hou''s house, but also the wife of this Hou who hasn''t passed the door." He loves to show his love. What''s the matter?


    Yao Yao''s face showed a look of jealousy and her body was shaky. She pushed her up again to help Jing Yuan. Jingyuan smiled as like as two peas in the face, but the man with a strong air field was very dark.


    Jing Yuan difficultly gave his eyes to the opposite side, looked back, turned around, took a closer look, loosened Zhuo Xi''s waist and walked forward, "eh? You are as like as two peas. What''s your name? Where do you live? "


    Jingyuan knelt down and knocked his head. "See you, Mr. Hou. Xiao Min lost his memory after being seriously injured. So far, he doesn''t know his name. Miss Yao Yao saved Xiaomin''s life and gave her the name Jingyuan. Xiaomin thought it should mean ronghua Chunjing has vitality. Xiao Min is only now well-known for offending the marquis. He knows that he has committed a capital crime. Please take back his name and give him another name. " Even the two young women of the 21st century with high IQ standing aside had to admire and stretch out their thumbs: although they took the lead in admitting that they offended the Marquis, it was only an offence in the pronunciation of the name, not another impersonation sufficient to punish the nine nationalities; It also perfectly explained the origin and significance of the name and covered up the Oolong fact of admitting the wrong person for Yao Yao, which is really a good excuse for them.


    Jing Yuan raised his head and asked him to get up. He said, "Jing doesn''t have to. Speaking of it, the Lord of Zisang and Ben Hou also have the same surname. But the two words are really confusing. How about changing the word yuan to Mo? Since you have lost your memory, you are a stranger. One day you will remember the past and change your original name. "


    Jingmo kowtowed again, "Jingmo thanks the marquis."


    Yao Yao was so ashamed that she stepped forward and wanted to cry, "cousin..."


    Jing Yuan hurried back to Zhuo Xi, gave Jingmo an eye knife to "hold your wife", and said, "cousin, you are married now, and cousin is very happy for you. If you have lived in this border town for a long time, go home so that your uncle will not worry. " He glanced at the new house behind them and asked Zhao Kuo anxiously, "Lord Zhao, what''s the matter with Tianlei?"


    Zhao Kuo said, "I don''t know. According to Fang Er, she sat on the bed with her head covered. She only heard a sudden huge earthquake in the corner of the outer hall against the wall. Then half of the house collapsed, and then there was fire everywhere. The officer is looking for someone to find out why. It''s sunny today. There shouldn''t be thunder. "


    The woman on the side hurriedly said, "now that the sky is clear, where will there be thunder? In my opinion, some playful child must have lit firecrackers and put them outside. "


    Jing Yuan glanced at her and asked Zhao Kuo suspiciously, "who is this?"


    Zhao Kuo quickly introduced, "shemei Feng Zhao, her husband''s son-in-law, died a few years ago. Now shemei lives alone, so she lives in the lower official residence for a few days."


    Feng Zhaoshi came forward to give Jing Yuan a formal gift.


    "The people''s wife paid a visit to the marquis. It''s windy here. Why don''t you ask Lord Hou and Lord Zhuo Xi to move to the front hall together? "


    Jing Yuan nodded. It was not a way to stand like this all the time. Pulling Zhuo Xi''s hand, she found that her left hand was wrapped in white cloth and her eyes were sharp.


    Zhao Kuo stretched his hand upward and forward, "Lord Hou, please come first, Xiaohu, lead the way to xinuan Pavilion in front." There was a waiter by the moon door in front and trotted forward to lead the way.


    Jing Yuan pulls Zhuo Xi forward. Zhuo Xi''s feet are unstable. He turns around and crosses the following Zi ranjian Rong. When he looks at Lin Lang, he finds that she doesn''t have time to introduce each other to them. But Lin Lang understood and pointed her hand slightly behind her, which meant that she didn''t go with them, and there was another place to go. Zhuo Xi glanced at Jingmo. He saw a flash of evil in his eyes and looked at Zhao Kuo. A bad feeling rose in her mind, and she remembered seeing him in front of the jewelry building that day.


    Over there, Feng Zhaoshi turned his head and called an old servant to order a few words, and suggested that the bride and groom go to another place to calm down and rest, but Jingmo wanted to borrow wine to accompany the crime and insisted on coming together. Instead, Yao Yao said she had a headache and went back to find a place to rest.


    Zhao Kuo beckoned to the housekeeper and told him to look after the guests in the front hall and let them continue the banquet. At the same time, he brought another table of wine and vegetables to xinuan Pavilion. Then he raised his feet and walked to the West warm Pavilion.


    When they did these things, Lin Lang quietly followed a group of slaves and left. I don''t know where he went.


    In this way, a group of people scattered to the turning point of their respective destiny.

 Chapter 108

    At the West warm Pavilion, Zhao Kuo gave Jing Yuan the first place and arranged Zhuo Xi on Jing Yuan''s right hand side. He had already seen that the Marquis of Guang''an valued and spoiled Zhuo Xi. At the moment when Hou Guang''an announced Zhuo Xi''s identity to him, he could no longer regard her as an ordinary female official. He himself sat down on Jing Yuan''s left hand and stared at Jing Yuan with his eyes.


    Jing Yuan understood what he meant and said gently, "today is a happy day for the city Lord''s residence. Speaking of it, I have to call you my cousin. They are all my own people. You''re welcome." That means, Lord, look at the arrangement.


    Zhao Kuo immediately accompanied the smiling face, first let Zi Ran and Jianrong sit down along Zhuo Xi, first let Jingmo sit down on his own side, and then Feng Zhao, who came in, sat down with Jingmo. Zhuo Xi glanced around. These people in xinuan Pavilion had different views on Feng Zhao. It was reasonable that she, a married widow, went back to her brother''s house to live. She just said in the lobby that she accepted the bride and groom''s gift as her own aunt. Now she can sit at such a table, it seems that her identity is not so simple. On the contrary, Zhao style, Zhao Kuo''s son, has been missing. Why didn''t Lin manger come out to greet the guests? So she couldn''t help but pay special attention to her. She was wearing a dark purple jacket, her hair was combed meticulously, and there were no exaggerated and complicated headdress, that is, two pairs of gold hairpins and two ordinary emerald pendants on her ears, but not luxurious. At the moment, she was also looking up at the person opposite. Her eyes met Zhuo Xi''s and smiled warmly. The smile made Zhuo Xi feel the taste of being the head mother of a big family.


    The servants soon brought up the wine and vegetables. Four or five dishes and a pot of wine were placed on the small table in front of each person. When the servants served, they filled everyone''s wine bottles with wine.


    Zhao Kuo took the lead in lifting the wine bottle. "Today, the Marquis came, which really brightened the walls of Zhao''s house. Zhao would like to toast the Marquis with this wine and thank him for his hard work and congratulations. "


    Jing Yuan also picked up the wine bottle, "Lord Zhao, you''re welcome. I happened to pass by Zhao Jialing today. I heard that cousin Yao Yao was married here. How can I not come to congratulate him on such a grand event? I really want to thank Lord Zhao for her marriage. "


    Zhao Kuo laughed, "what did Lord Hou say. Although ya''er is my cousin niece, she has been close to our family since she was a child, and I have always treated her like my own daughter. This time she wishes to recognize me as an adoptive father. I have fulfilled my long cherished wish for many years. I hope her father won''t blame me for taking over and acting on behalf of blisters. Ha ha ha. "


    Jingmo raised the wine bottle at this time and said shamefully, "Lord Hou said that they are all his own people here, so the grass people don''t hide their ugliness. Speaking of this, I still blame the grass people for their recklessness. If it hadn''t been for the baby''s pregnancy, the marriage wouldn''t have been so hasty. However, ya''er has written to the Gelao patriarch to explain the matter and has obtained his consent. This is the fault of the grass-roots people. The grass-roots people will punish themselves. "


    He drank it all at once, filled it with wine again, and raised it to Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi. "Today''s matter is also the fault of the grass people. The grass people have apologized to the Lord and the future madam Hou."


    Jing Yuan smiled, "what''s wrong with you?"


    Jingmo said slowly, "the grass people lost their memory and were unable to clarify their identity in time, which led to groundless speculation and brought trouble for the Marquis and future marquis. This crime is a crime. Please fill this cup with Hou ye and future madam Hou and forgive Jingmo''s unintentional mistakes. Jingmo, do it first! "


    Jing Yuan was about to say something, but Zhuo Xi took the lead, "there are some problems to say. I was just outside. I heard Liu Zhao say that the bridegroom might be a marquis, but I was sad and surprised. Hehe, the Marquis should also call you cousin husband. It''s an unintentional loss. If we have to worry about it, it''s a little stingy. Dry! " She proudly picked up the wine bottle, raised a glass with the Marquis, and drank the wine together.


    Jingmo poured another cup, "today''s wedding, the improper guards in the house caused an accident, which made people mistakenly think it was Tianlei and frightened the Lord and future madam Hou. This is the second mistake of the grass people. Please drink this cup again and forgive the grass people. "


    As soon as these words came out, Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan noticed something wrong. It is said that the guard of the city Lord''s house is weak, which should be the responsibility of Zhao Pei. How did it become Jingmo, who has just become Zhao Kuo''s son-in-law?


    Zhao Kuo really laughed when he heard the speech. "Good son-in-law, this is my dereliction of duty. Why do you take the blame for me? I''d like to propose a toast to you to accompany you. "


    Jingmo said slowly again, "father Yue, you are the master of the city hall. However, the new house belongs to the son-in-law for the time being. The son-in-law didn''t take good care of the new house today, which frightened ya''er and disgraced the city Lord''s house. It also alerted the Lord and future madam hou to come to visit. It was the son-in-law''s fault. It''s better for my son-in-law to accompany me with this cup. "


    Looking at the two people fighting to accompany the crime, Zhuo Xi''s bad premonition surged up again. Zi Ran and Jian Yi also looked at each other and raised their vigilance.


    Jing Yuan smiled carelessly and drank up the wine in the glass.


    Jingmo continued, "the third and most important thing is that the grass-roots people dare to think that the name Jingmo is a little inappropriate." As soon as he said this, Zi Ran and Jian Yi had pressed their hands on the weapon handle at their waist.


    Zhao Kuo still smiled kindly and looked at the people opposite.


    Jing Yuan smiled and asked kindly, "what''s wrong?"


    Jingmo said, "strangers are strangers, which means that you don''t know and don''t know. Dare you ask the Marquis, do you really don''t know the grass people? Even if you don''t know the grass people, you should know yourself. "


    As soon as the voice fell, the meaning of the red fruit had been expressed very clearly. Zi Ran and Jian Yi immediately pulled out their weapons and stood up. Zhuo Xi''s heart tightened. She regretted hiding those pills in Xiao Li''s arms.


    Jing Yuan also learned from him and said slowly, "Ben Hou naturally knows himself. But Ben Hou believes that a stranger who looks similar to himself may not have any need to know. To give you a strange word, not a dead word, is to give you a way to live. "


    Jingmo laughed, "what''s the way to live? A temporary life is a lifetime death. Lord Hou, dare you say that you didn''t kill me at the moment you saw me? "


    Jing Yuan nodded honestly, "in fact, when Ben Hou heard that someone dared to pretend to be Ben hou to get married here and made his Xi''er nervous for a long time, Ben Hou did kill at that moment. But at the moment I saw you, Ben Hou didn''t want to kill you. "


    Jingmo closed her lips, but Zhao Kuo was very curious, "Hou ye, why is this?"


    Jing Yuan didn''t look at Zhao Kuo, but stared at Jing Mo''s face. "Ben Hou thinks you should know why."


    Jingmo had put down the wine bottle at this time. Instead of his low posture, he held his chest up and raised his head, "yes, I know why. But I don''t think I have the same reason to let you go. " Everyone heard that he had given up the opposing title between the Marquis and the grass people, which showed that it was an alternative war.


    Jing Yuan nodded and said sadly, "Ben hou can understand. If we exchange our positions, Ben Hou may make the same choice as you. But why are you in such a hurry? Don''t we need to confirm again, or leave us some memories of brotherhood and brotherhood before we start? "


    Jingmo shook his head. "You came uninvited and broke all my imagination of recognizing your brother. Isn''t this the best time?"


    Jing Yuan also shook his head, "Ben Hou came uninvited. I didn''t expect to see you. I''m not prepared. Are you ready?"


    Jingmo still shook his head. "Do you think I need to prepare such a thing myself?" He looked at Zhao Kuo.


    Zhao Kuo laughed, and the chance to appear finally came. "Both are dragons and phoenixes among people. Naturally, I thought of one place. It''s a pity. This table is good. I thought I could let you have a full meal first. I didn''t expect you to be so anxious. In the end, it''s a brother. One mountain can''t accommodate two tigers. You can''t even tolerate the time of a meal. " He looked pleased.


    Zi Ran and Jian Yi have gone to guard behind Jing Yuan. At this time, Jing Yuan makes a gesture, and Zi Ran clasps his middle finger in his mouth and blows a loud whistle. So the slamming door was knocked open and three people came in. But they didn''t fly in by themselves, but they were forced to crash in. Crows have been faintly visible outside, surrounded by a circle of people.


    Zhuo Xi recognized that one of them was Xiao soul. She got up with a cry of surprise and went to the front to help her up. The other two were dressed in black. She said she didn''t recognize them. But Zi Ran and Jian Yi have come forward and helped up one respectively. They limped to Jingyuan. One of them reported the blood on the corner of his mouth, "master, the outside has been surrounded by these bastards. It is estimated that there are 500 people."


    Jing Yuan stood up and stretched. "There are five hundred people, city Lord Zhao. You''re a big overstepping the system. According to the regulations, you seven grade city Lord can only have 100 soldiers at most. But you can send 500 people around, which really gives Ben Hou face. "


    Zhao Kuo laughed again, as if he couldn''t speak without laughing. "It''s said that the Marquis alone can defeat 100, not to mention... I''m afraid your people haven''t arrived yet?"


    So the Feng Zhaoshi who sat at the bottom finally stood up, took out the handkerchief in his sleeve, wiped the corners of his mouth, smiled and said, "brother, those two little girls have been locked in the cellar. Do you need someone to bring them?"


    Zhuo Xi looked cold and looked at Jing Yuan. He handed her a reassuring look. Knowing that he didn''t fight uncertain battles, he was relieved.


    Jing Yuan stood in front of Zhuo Xi, put her behind her, put her hands in her sleeves, and asked in a deep voice, "Lord Zhao is really careful. Now Ben Hou is in your bag. It''s better to ask Lord Zhao to explain for Ben Hou. What kind of chess game are you playing?"


    Zhao Kuo burst into laughter. Before he reached the gate, several people outside pulled weapons behind him and turned around, "Lord, you broke the situation of wansha city at the age of 14. You are resourceful. Today you are only unprepared. Do you think I will give you time to plan to move and rescue soldiers? Today, you can rest here first! "


    After that, he raised his legs and was about to step out of the door. Suddenly he heard a sad cry, "adoptive father..."

 Chapter 109

    The crowd outside gave way, and Zhao Kuo''s new daughter Yao Yao was cut off and came in.


    "Adoptive father -" she saw Jingmo and shouted again, "Xianggong --"


    Jingmo suddenly felt cold and unconsciously wanted to go forward, which exceeded his expectation. Lin Lang behind Yao Yao Yao shouted, "don''t move! Moving the dagger in my hand again doesn''t have eyes. "


    Lin Lang escorts Yao Yao to the middle. Yao looks at Zhao Gua and Jingmo with tearful eyes.


    Zhao Kuo said coldly, "who are you?"


    Lin Lang giggled and said, "you don''t need to know who I am. You just need that you and I are not in the same team."


    "What do you want?"


    Lin Lang glanced at the back, "Hey, Zhuo Xi, he asked what your man wants?"


    Zhuo Xi put her head out, "no? He asked, "what do you want?"


    "Isn''t this the biggest man in your family? I authorize him. "


    Zhuo Xi stabbed Jing Yuan, "she said she let you decide. What did you want to ask him just now?"


    Jing Yuan touched his nose and coughed, "so, Lord Zhao, are you still unwilling to answer the question just now?"


    Zhao Kuo glanced at Jingmo. Jingmo looked cold, read his eyes and subconsciously said, "no, city Lord, she is already my wife."


    Zhao Kuo sneered, "wife? When you become lord Guang''an, what kind of woman do you want? Besides, haven''t you been playing all the time? "


    Yao Yao was stunned in fear. "Adoptive father, what are you talking about?"


    Zhao Kuo glanced at her and said contemptuously, "haven''t you always regarded him as another person? What kind of affection do you pretend to be in front of me now, you hypocritical dog men and women? "


    Yao Yao listened and looked at Jingmo suspiciously, "Yuan... No, Xianggong, what is he talking about?"


    Jingmo was afraid to face it and his eyes twinkled, but he knew clearly that the woman could not die. He just said, "don''t worry, ya''er, I will save you."


    Lin Lang''s horizontal knife tightened. "It''s easy to save her. First answer the question of the man behind to show his sincerity."


    Zhao Kuo snorted coldly, "hum, it''s really a person in the countryside. He can''t bear big responsibility and big responsibility!"


    Jingmo turned around and looked at him with gloomy eyes. "I''m really a country man. I don''t have these foolproof disasters. If the city Lord thinks I''m embarrassed, he can let my husband and wife leave without asking about right and wrong."


    Zhao Kuo laughed, "leaving? Do you think you can get away now? Since the moment you were dying on the Bank of the Ganges, you couldn''t get rid of this right and wrong! You forget, this is also your arrangement! "


    Yao Yao thundered, "Xianggong, what did he say? You were unconscious by the Heng River on purpose? To lure me? "


    Jingmo painfully closes his eyes. Why does he feel that it is more difficult to bear his wife''s disappointed eyes than to uncover this bloody fact?


    Yao Yao said sadly, "so you didn''t lose your memory. You pretended everything? So you neither admit nor deny that you are the Marquis of Guang''an? "


    Jingmo gritted his teeth, nodded and said hard, "yes, I''ve been lying to you. I didn''t lose my memory. I pretended to be hurt and saved by you just to get you on the hook. " Why did he feel hurt when he said these words?


    Yao Yao laughed, "hahaha, I was just a chess piece from beginning to end. Hahaha, I am looking forward to our wedding, our future and our children with joy. It was just a scam! I don''t blame you, only myself! In vain, I was still guilty and took you as my cousin. In vain, I was full of chagrin and decided to double love you and treat you better in the future. It turned out that this was just my wishful thinking! "


    Jingmo felt that the warm current that had been surging in her chest seemed to be about to gush out. What the hell is that? He unconsciously put his hand on his chest, as if to hold down his heart.


    She calmed down slowly, her eyes misty with tears, "Xianggong, do you know what I was thinking just now? Yes, I recognized the wrong person before. It''s a shame. That''s because I really always thought you were really brother yuan. I figured it out when I was resting in the back hall. Since you''re not, it''s not good. You see, you are not him at all during this period of time. You are you. What I like is you during this period of time. I don''t want to be Mrs. Hou either. I just want to be with you. "


    There was a sudden fear in Jingmo''s heart, not the fear of being exposed to lies or identity exposure, but an inexplicable fear, as if there was something precious in her heart that was about to be stripped away. He suddenly realized that this was an emotion beyond his control, which had been suppressed by him. Even if he only played at the beginning, even if he knew that she only regarded him as another person, he couldn''t stop its secret growth. Maybe when he knew she was pregnant with his bones and blood, the trickle in his heart surged up day by day, and had gathered into a river where he didn''t know. Yao Yao''s words, like a force of gravity, are leading the river to stir and sway in his heart.


    At the moment, he just wanted to hold her in his arms and make her stop crying. He could only see her in front of him. He said, "don''t cry, Fang son." He even opened his arms slightly and waited for her to jump into his arms as usual, but nothing happened.


    Zhao Kuo found that some things were about to get out of his control. He pulled out the knife from the attendant behind him and stuffed it into his hand, "kill her! Success or failure depends on today. Don''t ruin our plan for a woman! "


    Jingmo immediately became angry. Although the discovery and confirmation of this feeling was not in his plan, he never wanted her to die, "she has my flesh and blood in her belly! How can I kill her?! Men can plot and kill, but I will never let my wife die in front of me! Zhao Kuo, I didn''t expect you to be such a beast! " Zhao Kuo trembled with anger and scolded "country man!"


    Jing Mo realized that Yao Yao was in another danger, so he turned to Lin Lang, "let her go, let my wife go." As soon as the word wife came out, he immediately tasted the future and expectations hidden behind the title. He didn''t know what it was, but he knew that she must not die.


    Lin Lang ignored it and Yao Ya wiped her tears. "Xianggong, I never knew that loving someone is so happy. If you can''t love me, it will make me more painful than death. If my chess piece is destined to die, I''d rather die in your hand! Kill me for the conspiracy you have imagined! "


    The past scenes are fresh in my mind. Jingmo said, "no, I won''t let you die." He looked at Lin Lang coldly, "finally, let her go!" Lin Lang doesn''t know why. She clearly feels that this man should have no martial arts. Why can''t she look directly into his eyes at this moment? She shivered uncontrollably, and the weapon in her hand unconsciously left Yao Yao Yao a little.


    Zhuo Xi also noticed the sinister smell of Jingmo, and wanted to let Lin Lang release Yao. After all, Yao Yao has known her for some time. She doesn''t think her nature is too bad. Now it''s pathetic to be hit by this.


    Yao Yao then cried, "no, I don''t know your name yet. Before you do it, tell me your real name! I don''t want to go down there. I can''t tell the child who his father is! "


    Jingmo was silent for a moment, then looked around heavily, "listen, my name is Yanlan. I was named Yanlan by my adoptive father since I was a child! From today on, you are the head mother of my Yan family, Yan Yao! "


    Zhao Gua found the gap and shouted, "Yan Lan! Don''t be blinded by children''s feelings! Our success is imminent, how can we fall short! Make a decision quickly. The people of Guang''an Hou must be outside the city. As long as you kill them now, it''s easy to replace them with your identity and appearance! If you hesitate for half a minute, you and I will have to die! "


    "Yifu! In vain, I thought you really hurt me. I didn''t expect to use me! Now he is hurting me for his own purpose. Pity the child in my belly... He is so small... "Yao Yao is really frank and simple. She was hurt and impacted for a moment. She really can''t accept it and began to cry again.


    Zhao Kuo was keenly aware that things had changed. He didn''t delay any more. With a wave of his hand, he made people outside come forward. As soon as he bit his teeth, he picked up the knife on the ground and cut it at Yao Yao. Yan Lan immediately flew up and dragged his arm. Without thinking, Lin Lang pulled Yao Yao back. But Lin Lang didn''t know martial arts, and Yao Yao was restrained by her medicine. They could only fall back together.


    Seeing that Zhao Kuo''s big knife was about to hurt two people, but listening to the "Ding", it turned out that Jing Yuan in front flew over and blocked Zhao Kuo''s knife with a short dagger in his hand. So although Lin Lang fell to the ground, they were unharmed. But at the same time, Xiao soul, Zi Ran, Jian Yi and the two unknown dark guards immediately flew over to take the move and fought with several people behind Zhao Kuo.


    Zhao Gua''s left arm was pulled by Yan Lan. Seeing that the front blow was not hit, he turned back and attacked Yan Lan. In his eyes, this man has always been a scholar with no strength to bind chickens. It should be easy to win him.


    The knife saw that it was going to cut Yan Lan''s back. A voice came in with the dark shadow from the door, "door master, be careful!" The shadow rushed at Yan Lan. What was faster than him was the weapon in the shadow''s hand and hit the knife in Zhao Kuo''s hand. When Kuang Dang gave a sound, Zhao Gua felt numb in the mouth of the tiger. The broadsword took off, broke in two from the middle and fell to the ground. Zhao Kuo fought with the man for more than ten rounds with his bare hands. One of them was accidentally slapped on his back, spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.


    Yan Lan was free early. She went to Yao Yao and helped her up from the ground. Lin Lang had already let her go. She had successfully let the enemy fight among themselves. Such a situation has lost its meaning.


    Zhao Kuo saw that the man was very skillful, but he didn''t love war. He struggled to get up and pulled Feng Zhao, who was hiding by the door. He wanted to step back outside the door and let the attendants close the door. However, he saw the man in black flying and blocking the door and shouted, "don''t move!" Hold a weapon high in your hand. Then a group of mermaids rushed into the lobby and surrounded all the people in the hall.


    Someone outside shouted in horror, "it''s a cigarette needle!"


    Smoke needle, hell needle, needle sees blood, needle has no empty hair.

 Chapter 110

    Zhao Kuo was shocked. It was conceivable that the battle outside the door had been won by these people long ago. Seeing this, several bodyguards in the hall had to return to Zhao Kuo. But in a twinkling of an eye, Zhao Kuo felt that the situation was gone, sighed and looked at Yan Lan, "who are you?"


    Yan Lan wiped her tears for the sobbing Yao Yao, took her into her arms and breathed a sigh of relief. When he heard Zhao Kuo''s question at the door, he didn''t pay attention to it, but whispered comfort with Yao Yao.


    Lin Lang couldn''t look at it and reminded, "people ask you!"


    Yan Lan raised her head and said gloomily, "Yan Wu, let him come and talk!"


    Zhao Gua was pointed by Yanluo needle and approached, "Yanlan, what do you mean? You and I are the partnership! "


    Yan Lan said, "not now. If you want to kill my wife, you are my enemy."


    Zhao Kuo said bitterly, "what are you doing?! Isn''t that Jing Yuan your common goal? "


    Yan Lan said lazily, "that''s my brother, the grudge between our brothers. We''ll fight behind closed doors later."


    Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Yuan''s look and whispered, "why aren''t you surprised at all? Did you already know? "


    Jing Yuan nodded in agreement.


    Zhao Kuo realized that he was the one who was fooled. "Then you always have to tell me who you are?"


    Yan Lan said faintly, "you know, one of my identities is --" he pointed to Jing Yuan standing behind, "his brother or brother."


    Jing Yuan said, "Yanlan, you should be my brother."


    Yan Lan nodded, "it doesn''t matter. Anyway, if I follow ya''er, I''ll call you cousin."


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "eh, are you really not going to kill me?"


    Yan Lan also smiled, "since I''m no longer called Jingmo, where can I find a reason to kill you?"


    Zhao Kuo felt that he had been fooled enough. "Yan Lan, the crime of conspiracy is like a child''s play? Do you think you can get out now? "


    It has the final say that I can not retire from the whole body, but has the final say of Guang''an Hou. Yan Lan looked down at the man in her arms and said seriously, "ya''er, Guang''an Hou is killing or cutting. We will bear it together. I''m sorry I''ve been hiding from you for so long. Today I tell you all that I have another identity, "he pointed to the circle of people in black outside," their leader, the leader of the prison gate. "


    Zhao Kuo laughed: "impossible! Prison gate is the largest killer organization in Northwest China. How can its leader be a scholar like you who has no strength to bind chickens? " He could not connect the man without martial arts with the legendary murderer in the Jianghu.


    Yan Lan smiled, "can''t be a sect leader without martial arts?" He turned to Jing Yuan, "Hou ye, what do you say?"


    Jing Yuan envied him for holding the beauty in his arms openly, but he couldn''t. He could only seriously say, "brother, if I don''t know martial arts, I should still be a marquis." It means that a person''s identity has nothing to do with his ability.


    He looked at Zhao Kuo, "however, Lord Zhao, it doesn''t matter whether you can master martial arts now. The evidence is conclusive that you intend to kill the Marquis of Guang''an and hoard government soldiers privately. But if someone with excellent martial arts like you makes any mistakes on the way to Kyoto, my soldiers may not be able to afford it. So, do you choose to abolish your martial arts or let him abolish your martial arts? "


    Jing Yuan refers to Zi Ran.


    Zhao Kuo''s face was as gray as death. He was seriously injured. There was a smoke needle behind him. There was a strong man with high martial arts in front of him. It was really a dead end. He sat on the ground, his eyes dull, but his mind turned very fast, thinking about where his life was.


    At this time, Jing Yuan suddenly changed his face. Looking around, he immediately flew forward and slapped a person. He was weak all over. He took her out of the corner, unloaded two arms, threw her to the ground, flew back to Zhuo Xi, and held her "how do you feel?"


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes, woke up from the dizziness at that moment and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    "Didn''t you hear the whistling?"


    Zhuo Xi was blankly, "is the sound of Xiao ringing again? No wonder I feel dizzy... "


    Lin Lang came out and said, "yes, I heard it, but unlike Xiao, it''s a strange sound of a specific frequency. She should have sent it. " She pointed at the man on the ground.


    It turned out that it was Feng Zhao, who had been shrinking in the corner. She didn''t say a word before, and it was obvious that there was no lethality. Everyone ignored her existence.


    Feng Zhao was frozen there and said with a bitter smile, "Lord Hou, my body is the real one. I have no strength to bind chickens. What are you doing?"


    Jing Yuan stepped back and motioned Lin Lang to come up, "please search her."


    Feng Zhao desperately tried to shrink herself up. In this public, there were men present. It was a great shame that an old woman should be searched in public.


    Lin Lang only touched where she could hide things on her body, and looked at her fingers. She didn''t find it. She was disappointed to stand up, but she heard Zhuo Xi whistle behind her. She looked at Feng Zhao''s chin with her fingers, saw two holes in her tongue, sighed, stood up and said, "it''s not a whistling sound, it''s a whistling sound."


    Feng Zhaoshi laughed, rolled his tongue and blew again. Jing Yuan held Zhuo Xi in anger, "Zi Ran, go and cut off her tongue!"


    At the next moment, Feng Zhao''s blood gushed out. Unexpectedly, he bit the first half of his tongue and swallowed it. He looked at them with hatred and said vaguely, "even without the whistle, you can''t solve the poisonous insects in your body!"


    Yan Lan looked at Zhuo Xi''s dizziness and suddenly understood, "sister-in-law is poisoned?" This sister-in-law called Zhuo Xi very embarrassed, but she was dizzy and couldn''t respond. But Jing Yuan was very comfortable and praised him with his eyes. Yan Lan received his wink and glanced back, which meant "you''re welcome."


    However, the next moment, Feng Zhaoshi smiled, "not only her, but also you, you! Hahaha... "She pointed hard at Jing Yuan and Yao Fang.


    Yao Yao broke away from Yan Lan''s hand and rushed up, "aunt Biao, didn''t you say that only brother yuan was poisoned by love? Why do I have one? So does Zhuo Xi! "


    Feng Zhao spit a mouthful of blood, "love Gu? Only you silly girl can really think it''s a love bug! Let me tell you, one of you is a kind of reunion bug! Besides, if you want him to be your love bug, you are a female bug, otherwise how can you control him? "


    Yao Yao sat down on the ground, "impossible! Why? Didn''t you tell me that it was just a general love bug? Just to make brother yuan devote himself to me? " She looked at Yan Lan. The latter''s face was gloomy. She quickly got up and took his hand. "Xianggong, I was fascinated by ghosts at that time. I''ll explain to you later."


    Feng Zhao kept laughing like crazy. However, Zhao Gua, who was paralyzed on the ground, suddenly jumped up, clasped her neck with one hand and took her back with the other.


    Yao Yao was shocked, "adoptive father! What are you doing? "


    Zhao Kuo opened his blood red eyes. "I, Zhao Kuo hero I, have dominated the Zhao Jialing for more than 30 years. I don''t want to be teased by you boys who don''t have complete hair today! Want me to get caught?! to dream! I tell you, since the three of you have been poisoned by reunion, none of you will live for three years without her! "


    The blood in Feng Zhao''s mouth gurgled out and said weakly, "brother, what do you want to do?"


    Zhao Gua said in a hate voice, "if you didn''t have to lure the real Jing Yuan, how could you be so easily fooled by this boy? Who would have expected him to turn against him? We were trapped! "


    Yan Lan was confused. "What do you mean by threatening us with her? She''s your own sister! "


    Zhao Kuo said, "ha ha, you don''t know?! My Zhao family''s unique Gu secret has always been passed on to women rather than men. My wife has died for more than ten years. She is the only one who knows this secret skill - my third sister. If you want her to solve Gu and live, give me a horse and let me go! "


    Lin Langqi said, "do you want to trade your sister''s life for your life? Don''t you ask her if she wants to? "


    "Now I can''t protect myself. One by one, don''t you think? Third sister? " His hand on Feng Zhao''s neck tightened.


    Yan Lan looked at Jing Yuan indifferently, "Hou ye, what do you say?"


    "You decide." Jing Yuan picked his eyebrows and said casually.


    Yao Yao pounced on Yan Lan, "Xianggong..."


    Yan Lan said, "Yan Wu, do you hear me? Go and prepare a steed for city Lord Zhao! "


    "Yes!" The man in black answered.


    Feng Zhao struggled and said, "brother, how can you..."


    Zhao Kuo said, "when the husband and wife are in danger, they all fly separately. Three younger sisters, it''s also a merit that you can save the eldest brother''s life."


    "You''d better kill me, I, I don''t want to fall into their hands." Feng Zhao said weakly.


    Zhao Kuo said, "your life is very expensive now. If you die, I can''t go. If you want to die, you can''t die until I get out of danger. "


    Soon the man named Yan Wu came back, brought a black horse and stopped at the door. He came in and reported, "door master, it''s ready."


    Yan Lan waved her hand. The man beside the door made way. Zhao Gua dragged Feng Zhao to the door and pushed her in. He jumped onto the horse and ran away.


    Jing Yuan opened his mouth, "Yan Lan, didn''t you say our gratitude and resentment, and we want to fight behind closed doors? Don''t let your people out yet? "


    Yan Lan thought for a while, nodded and agreed, "Yan Wu, there''s nothing wrong here for the time being. Go out and watch it first."


    Yan Wu hesitated, "sect leader?"


    Yan Lan shouted, "don''t go out yet!" The whole body sent out a cold breath like ice, so that the group of people around them quickly saluted, bowed back, and the atmosphere dared not breathe.


    Only the Feng Zhao family on the ground was a kind of desperate relaxation. She struggled to support her body against the door frame to avoid lying on her back for people to visit. When she saw that everyone focused on herself, she smiled bitterly and said gently, "I''m sorry to disappoint you. Although I''m the only successor of the Zhao family''s Secret skills, I only know how to poison, But I don''t know how to solve the Gu. "


    Yao Yao was stimulated again. "Aunt Biao, you told me at that time that this Gu would be harmless to the human body as long as it was not triggered. Why do we need to solve it? Why do you deceive me again and again? "


    Lin Lang looked at the simple girl with a smile and came forward to pat her on the shoulder. "Miss Yao, let her finish first."


    Feng Zhao still smiled faintly, "if you say that the only person I feel sorry about in this matter is you."


    Yao Yao was still at a loss. Yan Lan came over, took her into her arms and asked softly, "tell us how you got this love Gu at that time?"

 Chapter 111

    She sucked her nose, put her head out of his arms and secretly took a look at Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi. Seeing that Zhuo Xi was still weak and pale, she felt even more guilty. "Yes, I happened to meet her when I went out to play when I lived in the Marquis of Guang''an in Kyoto." She pointed to Feng Zhao, "she is my cousin aunt. Yes, but I didn''t know her very well before. That day she said she came to offer incense to her husband. He died a few years ago and was buried in his ancestral grave in the suburbs of Beijing. Later, she often invited me to go out for tea and play. She said that I was unfamiliar in the suburbs of Beijing, and took me to get familiar with the local customs. At that time, I was unpopular in the Marquis of Guang''an. I was depressed every day and was happy to have the care of my elders. So I came and went, and became more and more familiar with her. " She looked at Zhuo Xi and blushed, "later, I knew that hyacinth was actually a woman. I was very depressed, so I vomited bitterness with aunt Biao. She strongly suggested me to... Go..."


    Yan Lan has a black face. How does it sound like she has some peach blossom debts before¡° And then? "


    Zhuo Xi also understood. It turned out that she was guarding in Jingyuan''s building at that time with the intention of dedicating herself. It turned out that she was instigated by the old woman.


    Feng Zhao snorted coldly, "little girl, I''d better say it. I suggested that she seduce Guang''an Hou. What''s wrong with that? In terms of family background, character and appearance, where can we find a better candidate than Guang''an Hou? Besides, she came to Kyoto to have a good marriage. Unfortunately, her means are not as good as yours. " She looked at Zhuo Xi, "she seduced him for a long time and didn''t even touch a corner of his clothes. That''s why I recommended the reunion bug to her. Ha ha, the meaning of reunion insects is that they are actually a family of three. Female insects and male insects are husband and wife insects, while child insects are specially used to deal with concubines. "


    41 reunion insect


    Zhuo Xi came and asked what she wanted to ask most, "how to solve it?"


    Feng Zhao''s face showed a proud look, "the old woman has just said that there is no solution to this Gu."


    "No solution? I''m afraid you can''t solve it? But that doesn''t mean others can''t understand. Since this Gu has no solution, why don''t you tell me the origin and function of this Gu? "


    Feng Zhao snorted coldly, "it doesn''t hurt to tell you. There is a pair of Gu Yuan and Gu Zi. In fact, husband and wife insects are love insects. The difference is that when this pair of husband and wife insects live together before parasitism, after laying eggs, they are sent into a pair of men and women respectively. The female poison is planted in the wife and the male poison is planted in the husband. They always have a feeling of heart to heart. The wife can firmly control the husband and prevent him from being easily bewitched by other women. But sometimes men''s romantic places are hard to guard against, and sometimes they will have other thoughts to bring the women they particularly like into the house. This Gu comes in handy. Let the man drink the eggs of Zi Gu and then pass them to the woman through sex. After seven days, the Zi Gu in the concubine will grow up and control the Zi Gu through the whistle, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the concubine. And this son Gu can also be used alone. It is controlled by the whistle, which is also known as the heavenly demon sound Gu. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Yuan and said, "listen, I got a son bug, and you got a male bug? Then do you have a heart to heart feeling with her? "


    Jing Yuan shook his head suspiciously, "No."


    Yan Lan''s face turned white. "How do male Gu grow?"


    Feng Zhaoshi was slightly proud. "Both male and female insects use a secret method to make them sleep in an ornament. As long as the ornament is close to the human body for more than three hours, the insect will wake up and find the host that brings it warmth. This method is a secret skill handed down by the Zhao family. It is unique in the world. "


    Yao Yao has been shaky. The amount of information tonight is too much for her to digest for the moment. Yan Lan also has a gloomy face.


    Lin Lang curled his mouth and said to Zhuo Xi, "isn''t it freezing that makes them hibernate? Why is it difficult? "


    Feng Zhao was shocked and said, "you! How do you know? "


    Zhuo Xi also smiled. "You Zhao family could find this method a few decades ago. It''s really magical, but now the technology in the world is changing with each passing day. There have been many strange methods of planting Gu for a long time. You don''t know or wonder."


    Feng Zhao said, "it''s impossible. I''ve lived in Kyoto husband''s house for decades. Apart from Zhao''s Gu Shu, I''ve never heard of other sects or families who can make Gu Shu."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "do you know that zombie insects - can make people stiff like corpses and worms - can make people slow like insects and burn incense - can make people pay homage and burn incense all the time, as well as hemp insects, Black Friday insects, golden pig insects, hell insects, ghost insects and so on?"


    Lin Lang beside him was already laughing and couldn''t stand up. Sister, you talk nonsense about these viruses thousands of years later. Which one is not scared to death?


    Feng Zhao''s face became whiter and whiter, and he smiled miserably, "it seems that the old woman is ignorant."


    Zhuo Xi looked at her face carefully, "so, there are people outside people and there are days outside the sky. What you can''t solve doesn''t mean that no one can solve it. Now can you tell me why you did it to us? "


    Feng Zhao closed his mouth tightly and didn''t say a word.


    Zhuo Xi saw Yao Yao Yao sobbing. Yan Lan looked gloomy again. She couldn''t help asking, "what''s wrong with you?"


    Yao Yao shook her hands and exposed a string of white jade Buddha beads in her wrist. Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "the quality is good."


    Feng Zhao snorted coldly, "since the target is the Marquis, how can we find someone who is too bad?"


    Zhuo Xi asked Jing Yuan suspiciously, "don''t you have no special mood fluctuation with Miss Yao?" She suddenly turned white. No, she had emotional fluctuations with another person. She hurriedly looked at Yan Lan with an iron face. The unspeakable sense of closeness surged up again. She looked up and trembled and pointed to Yan Lan, "is it you who got the male Gu?" There must be induction between husband and wife Gu, and between son Gu and husband and wife Gu. No wonder she had an inexplicable sense of familiarity when she accidentally met them on the street.


    Yan Lan began to breathe the cold breath again, and slowly threw a string of the same white jade Buddha beads hidden in her sleeve with her right wrist at Yao Yao''s feet. At the knot of the string of beads, a bright red concentric knot was made. Yao Yao has shrunk into a ball and is far away from him.


    Jing Yuan also reacted. Suddenly, the alarm bell rang loudly and immediately blocked Zhuo Xi, "don''t you look at him again!"


    Feng Zhaoshi also understood at this time and said with a loud smile, "ha ha, ya''er, ya''er, it turns out that you took the fake as the real from the beginning. Coupled with the role of this husband and wife Gu, no wonder you have always been full of confidence. The old man said that you are usually confused and you are not convinced. Ha ha ha. " Laughing, she cried again, "ah - why?! Why can you even make a mistake about such an important thing! I wasted so much effort on you, but I fell short in the end! God, you''d better let me die. Why did you leave me alone to suffer here... "Her face was full of despair, and there seemed to be something in her eyes, but she couldn''t carry out it because her acupoints were touched.


    Zhuo Xi understood. When she stopped crying, she said, "since you want to control the Lord through Yao Yao, and then manipulate me to kill the Lord. Your ultimate goal is Lord Hou. I''m afraid it''s just incidental, isn''t it? Now your plan has failed and fallen into our hands. Do you think the person behind you will let you go? "


    Feng Zhao muttered decadent, "that man knows little about him, and I know very little about him. It makes no difference that I can''t fall into your hands. Besides, I''ve been dying since my husband left. I''ve stayed long enough in this world. You kill me. "


    Zhuo Xi stood up and said to Jing Yuan, "Sir, it seems that this is not so easy to ask. I''d better give it to you. It depends on your means. "


    Jing Yuan suddenly asked, "is your husband Feng Ao, the former counselor of Puzhou?"


    Feng Zhao''s whole body suddenly shook and stiffened. He didn''t speak.


    At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the door. A voice shouted, "why don''t you two talk?!"


    Zhao Gua was escorted in. One of the two escorted him looked familiar. After he reported to Jingyuan, Zhuo Xi remembered that he was Li Liao, deputy commander of the 10th battalion of Baihui army. He had met several times in Qingyun town at that time. It turned out that the tenth battalion had rushed to the border town.


    Then Yan Wu followed in, with a look of panic on his face. Yan Wu ran to Yan Lan and said in a low voice, "door master, the whole city master''s house was surrounded by officers and soldiers. There are tens of thousands of people."


    Yan Lan said coldly, "the mantis catches cicadas and the Yellow finches are behind. It turned out that the Marquis wanted to be that bird. "


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "you tiger can''t be called a mantis. On the way, from Kyoto to here, how many open guns and hidden losses did Ben Hou eat you?"


    Zhao Kuo said angrily, "you two, one is the Marquis of Guang''an, and the other is the head of Hehe prison Yuanmen. How can you not count your words?!"


    Yan Lan was in a bad mood. She was too lazy to talk to him and threw her eye knife to Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan thought about the situation just now and held his chest up. "Just now, Yan Damen said he would let you go? He let you go. Has ben ever ordered you to go? "


    Zhao Kuo angrily said, "you! You... "


    Li Liao kicked to the back of his foot, and he knelt on the ground. Li Liao shouted, "set up a bureau to murder the Marquis of Guang''an, and its crime should be punishing the nine families! Are you still trying to escape from life? "


    Zhao Kuo laughed loudly, "hahaha, the big husband does something and doesn''t do something. Since Zhao Kuo has made this important note, he will naturally bear the consequences. Now you know people and are caught in treacherous tricks. If you want to kill or cut them, just come! "


    There was a voice outside the door, "Lord Zhao is so confident. I''m afraid it''s because of these two, no, these three people?"


    Two more people were pushed in. The person behind the escort stepped forward and knelt in front of Jing Yuan. "Bai Zhong, commander of the tenth battalion of Bai Hui army, met Hou ye and madam."


    Zhuo Xi touched her nose again and said strangely, "who are these two? There are only two people. Why three? "


    Bai Zhong said, "madam, these two are Zhao Yuan, the only son of city Lord Zhao, and his concubine. Already pregnant, so it''s three. "


    i see.

 Chapter 112

    Zhao Kuo was pale and paralyzed on the ground.


    Zhao Yuan climbed over, "father, what''s the matter?"


    Zhao Kuo trembled and slapped him in the face. "Didn''t you go back to your ancestral house in the mountain a few days ago?!"


    Zhao Yuan stroked his face and cried, "Dad, the ancestral house is located in the mountains and forests. It has been uninhabited for decades. I don''t know what corruption has become. My son wanted to live in this town for a few more days. It''s not too late to go back to the ancestral house to worship his ancestors when Qing''er gave birth to a child. Who knows, he was caught. Dad, what happened? "


    Zhao Kuo heaved a long sigh and stopped talking.


    Jing Yuan ordered, "Bai Zhong, Zhao Liao, go and screen the people who eat wine in the front yard. The close relatives within the three nationalities will stay and the rest will be released. These people also took them down first and searched the city master''s house. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly answered, "I have two maidservants. I heard they were locked in the cellar. If you find them, please send them over."


    "Yes, sir and madam." They answered in unison.


    The men were taken down, and the house was suddenly quiet. They only heard Yao Ya sobbing softly in the corner.


    Yan Lan sighed, straightened out her mind, walked over and gently helped Yao Yao up. Yao Yao opened her red and swollen eyes, "my husband, if you want to blame me, I really wanted to find a good husband. I had no parents since I was a child, and the patriarch had always been generous to me. I wanted to decide everything by myself. Only then did I listen to Aunt Biao''s bewitchment. It''s wrong for me to think of you as him, but my husband, I think, I think my dependence on you these days is not all due to the role of the husband and wife, i... I...... "


    Yan Lan pulled her into her arms and said in a muffled voice, "in fact, I think it feels good. I''m afraid that the three-year deadline will endanger the lives of you and your children. "


    Yao Yao suddenly raised her head, stunned for a while, buried her in his arms and cried hard.


    Lin Lang looked at these two people and Zhuo Xi. For the first time in his life, he felt that he was lonely and miserable.


    At this time, there was another noise outside the door, as if a familiar voice was mixed in.


    A man in black was escorted in by Bai Zhong again. "Lord, this man broke into the house and said he was looking for a Miss Lin."


    The man in black was delighted when he saw Lin Lang, "lang''er, I finally found you."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Cui Jiu, how is it you?" She smiled and hurriedly said to Bai Zhong, "let him go. It''s her own."


    Lin Lang hurried forward and patted Bai Zhong''s hand, "Why are you here? Your injury hasn''t healed yet. What do you want to be strong? "


    Cui Jiu looked up and down at Lin Lang, "lang''er, if you''re okay, if you''re okay." He stopped Lin Lang behind him and said to the people in the hall, "what do you want?"


    Jing Yuan glanced at Zhuo Xi. Somehow, Zhuo Xi immediately smiled knowingly and said, "Cui Jiu, let me introduce you. This is Hou Jing Yuan of Guang''an of Wuliang state, and this is the leader of prison yuan sect Yan Lan and his wife. I don''t know your identity yet. If you don''t introduce yourself? "


    Cui Jiu looked around. Bai Zhong saw that it was bad. He went out of the door and brought the door back.


    Cui Jiu hung his eyes for a moment and looked back at Lin lang. the latter seemed to smile. He took out a bunch of round black objects from his arms and stuffed them into Lin Lang''s arms. He whispered, "lang''er, if anything happens, you''ll break through with them."


    Lin Lang took it over with a smile. Zhuo Xi was about to take it down. Jing Yuan pulled her, coughed and said, "Ben Hou''s eyes are clumsy. It''s really impolite for the prince of Zisang state to arrive."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Cui Jiu was the crown prince of Zisang country? Jing Yuan knew it long before he indicated his identity? At the same time, she noticed that the two people froze at the same time. The things Lin Lang received fell to the ground one by one. She hurried to help pick up the things and found that it was black gunpowder. She immediately understood what Cui Jiu had just said.


    Cui Jiu smiled bitterly and came forward to salute, "Cui lianghuang took the liberty to come uninvited. Guang''an Hou is polite. Yanmen master is polite. "


    Yan Lan jumped aside with Yao Yao in her arms. "I dare not. I''m just a reckless man in the Jianghu. Please." He turned to Jing Yuan and said quickly, "if you want to talk about military affairs, wait first. What happened today? I have hundreds of brothers waiting outside. "


    Jing Yuan looked at him, "just let them wait. There are white Hui troops everywhere, and they don''t dare to escape."


    Yan Lan has a black face. What he wants to worry about is that his men will escape?


    Jing Yuan said again, "it''s a coincidence that I met the prince of Zisang today. At present, there is a small matter. Don''t be cold. Have a good discussion with Zisang. Yanmen master, don''t worry. I asked you first. Now Zhao Cheng''s mastermind has been arrested. I''m afraid there are no living people within the three clans. As a legitimate son-in-law of the city Lord''s residence, what do you think of this? "


    Yan Lan chuckled, "Lord Hou doesn''t count this son-in-law into the three families. It''s the fate of me and ya''er. How dare our sect leader have an idea?"


    Jing Yuan turned to Cui Jiu. "Speaking of it, Zhao Jialing was also granted the legal existence of Zisang. Isn''t your highness worried about the future governance of this place?"


    Cui Jiu also smiled bitterly, "when I first arrived here, the incident happened suddenly and I didn''t care. What good plan does the Marquis have? "


    Jing Yuan said: "Zhao Jialing has always relied on autonomy to maintain the peace of Wuliang and Zisang. Therefore, the successors here should not only be independent of Wuliang and Zisang, but also have certain strength to maintain the public security of Zhao Jialing. Ben Hou thought, "he took a look at Yan Lan," Yan Clan master holds hundreds of people with high martial arts in the prison yuan clan, and has always been at odds with Ben Hou and has nothing to do with Zisang. He is the son-in-law of the city''s backbone and takes over Zhao Jialing. What does your highness think? "


    Yan Lan was stunned, Yao Yao was stunned, and even Zhuo Xi didn''t react. Lin Lang stabbed Zhuo Xi and asked in a low voice, "what rhythm is this? Overnight, a sworn enemy becomes a brother, and a brother becomes a subordinate? "


    Ironically, she''s not in the state? Zhuo Xi clenched her teeth and asked, "what''s the rhythm over there? Overnight, the injured becomes a boyfriend, and the boyfriend becomes a brother? "


    Lin Lang said, "can you give me a hint in advance when you have a poisonous tongue?"


    Zhuo Xi chuckled, "let''s go. Next time you also give an early warning. "


    Cui Jiu thought for a long time over there, nodded and replied, "this suggestion is very good. When the prince returns, he will repair a letter and report it to his father. I just don''t know, what''s Yanmen''s idea? "


    Yan Lan sneered, "what do you mean, let us, the first killer organization in the Jianghu, wash our hands and quit the Jianghu? What a trick! "


    Jing Yuan said slowly, "assassinating the royal family and nobles is also a crime of punishing the company. Yanmen master and his men have all the stolen goods. If you don''t want to be good, I have to deal with it according to the law."


    Cui Jiu was surprised. "Did the Yanmen master want to assassinate the Marquis of Guang''an? The crown prince sees that you two look the same. Is it not that Yanmen master pretended to be a marquis and wanted to replace you? "


    Lin Lang gave him a thumb and quickly realized the key to today''s event. Cui Jiuyi saw that she was a little shy. She quickly copied with her right hand and put her thumb in the palm of her hand. Lin Lang blushed and broke away for a long time without any results.


    Yan Lan Leng snorted and didn''t bother to explain. Although he was suspected of pretending, who had the time to put a human skin mask on his face and pretend to be the Marquis? Don''t you know the pain of wearing a human skin mask? He took Yao Yao behind him, took a few steps back and looked at the people in front of him vigilantly: "I was trying to make a living on the edge of the knife. What I hate most is being threatened. If you take this as a threat, my brother is not a vegetarian. Although you are surrounded by thousands of people, they are all soldiers. If you want to earn a fish, death and net, you still have seven or eight points. "


    Jing Yuan sighed, "now Xi''er is connected with you. Naturally, I won''t do it with you. Although this suggestion is suspected of safety, it does no harm to your prison door. It just allows you to change your way of life. You don''t think for yourself, but also for your wife, children and brothers who want to get married and have children to settle down. Besides, the prison gate is strong. As long as you keep yourself in zhaojialing, you don''t have to worry about taking advantage of the fire or cooking with Zisang. You might as well consider it. "


    Yan Lan calmed down and thought for a long time. She found that she really couldn''t refuse such a proposal. Yao and his wife have been living an extraordinary life for more than half a month, especially since he was not good at living in the rain. What about those brothers who have been haunting in the shadow of swords and swords? Would you like to settle down with him? Thinking of this, he whispered a few words with Yan Wu, who had been silent behind him. Yan nodded at five and opened the door.


    The two men in front of Yan Lan Chao arched their hands and said, "this matter is very important. We will make a decision after our brothers discuss it. But our brothers are all reckless in the Jianghu, but they don''t know anything about officialdom. I''m afraid they can''t shoulder the heavy responsibility. "


    As soon as he said this, even Zhuo Xi scolded secretly. It was too hypocritical.


    Jing Yuan was too lazy to answer. Cui Jiu can only be hypocritical and polite, "master Yan is too modest. You have no martial arts, but you can manage the prison yuan gate with strict discipline. In just a few years, you have become the largest killer organization in the Jianghu. How can you manage a small Zhao Jialing with the wisdom of master Yan?"


    Soon Yan Wuyi came in with a happy face and nodded excitedly to Yan Lan. Yan Lan also breathed a sigh of relief, "so I thanked the Marquis and the prince on behalf of my brothers."


    Cui jiuben was slightly dissatisfied with his ranking behind Jing Yuan, but he had to give up when he thought that the dark crowd outside was Bai Huijun.


    Jing Yuan took a deep breath and said, "take your brothers and settle down first. Hou will let Bai Huijun withdraw first. But you first let them put away the cigarette needle. If anyone who doesn''t have eyes hurts me, Ben Hou won''t be polite anymore. It''s late today. Let''s go back to have a rest and rectify first, and come back to discuss the matter of dispelling Gu another day. "


    As soon as he said this, everyone dispersed.


    Lin Lang came up first and took Zhuo Xi''s hand. "Sister, I''ll go with you."


    Jing Yuan and Cui Jiu suddenly turned black.


    When they got outside, they got on the carriage first, and surprised Yan and Xiao Li were also helped over. Zhuo Xi looked at them up and down. Seeing that there was no obvious trauma, she waved her hand and stopped Xiao Li from saying anything. She was really tired and didn''t want to say anything more.

 Chapter 113

    Casually replied, "do I know you well?"


    "Dead girl, we are villagers at least."


    ¡°


    Back at the inn, Lin Lang went straight to his room. Zhuo Xi also went back to her room and had a big sleep. When I got up, it was dark. She opened the door and went out. Xiao Li came up and saluted, "Miss, are you awake? The Marquis said, "when you get up, we''ll go to the lobby for dinner."


    "Well, let''s go." Zhuo Xi nodded and asked as she walked, "tell me, what happened when you went to find surprised words at noon?"


    "When I got out of the door, I groped all the way to a large looking wing room. I heard an old woman''s voice scolding Jingyan for being picky and treacherous, and slapped Jingyan several times in the face. For a moment, I couldn''t help but rushed up to save her, but sister Jingyan didn''t say a word. I also wondered why she was bullied by the old woman who didn''t have martial arts even though her martial arts were much better than mine. But when I shot, I found that all my internal power was lost. Then I realized that sister Jingyan must have been cheated by them like me. Later, a bodyguard came out and took sister Jingyan and I to a cellar. I''ve been talking to sister Jingyan. She didn''t answer me for some reason. I thought she was dumb. I didn''t understand that she didn''t want to talk to me until she cried and called you when she saw the young lady. "


    "How is she now?"


    "The maidservant just went to see her. She was just crying in bed. She ignored me when I told her."


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "don''t disturb her these two days. She just didn''t understand something."


    She was about to step out of the yard and go to the front lobby, but she saw a figure swooping over and crawling at her feet, crying, "Miss, miss, the slave and maid have made a big mistake and beg miss to punish."


    Zhuo Xi looked at Xiao Li and said, "Xiao Li, go and ask the shopkeeper where Miss Lin Lang is resting and invite her to dinner."


    Xiao Li looked anxiously at the startled words lying on the ground and answered.


    Zhuo Xi said coldly, "get up first."


    Startled, she burst into tears. "Miss, the maid almost made a big mistake. She should repay her kindness with death."


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "a few words can offset your mistakes? Let me ask you, on the day of Shangyuan Festival, but you deliberately bought plum and put it among my snacks? But you can tell them that they can carry out the plan at the right time? "


    The startled man nodded and said, "yes, it''s all the slave''s fault."


    "Since you are an orphan, your sentimental badminton sisters have a good place to go. I really don''t understand. What else can they use to threaten you to betray me like this?"


    Surprised speech raised his head, straightened his upper body, and his lips stammered speechless.


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was soft. "Get up first. You don''t have to serve me from tomorrow. There are no people with criminal records around me."


    Surprised Yan painfully closed his eyes and slowly stood up, but suddenly took a hand like a torch and instantly lit several acupoints around Zhuo Xi, which made her unable to move. Zhuo Xi was shocked. She opened her mouth wide and couldn''t make a sound. She smiled bitterly. It turned out that she was too soft hearted. I don''t know if this person can betray the first time, she can betray the second time.


    Xiao soul in the dark shot out and fought with startled words. Surprised Yan stole an empty, and his backhand slipped a dagger out of his sleeve, which was about to stab Xiao soul. Zhuo Xi saw that her eyes and canthus wanted to crack, but she couldn''t make any sound in her mouth.


    But at the next moment, the startled blade turned and inserted it into his heart. Xiao soul just slapped her on the back and said that the whole person flew out like a leaf.


    Xiao soul came forward to mend a foot, but he heard the startled words and cried, "sister Xiao soul, come on, help the young lady and cut a hole in her hand. It''s too late."


    Xiao soul was surprised and said, "what did you say?"


    A voice nearby said, "she''s right. Help your young lady over quickly." It turned out to be Lin lang. Xiao soul knew that this person was a good friend of the young lady and dared not neglect it. After a little ceremony, he quickly walked to Zhuo Xi and heard Lin Lang say, "don''t unlock her acupoints first."


    Zhuo Xi gnashes her teeth. She must know that she hates being restrained and unable to move.


    Xiao Li exclaimed and picked up the surprised speech that fell to the ground, "sister surprised speech, how are you?"


    Xiao soul was confused and held the young lady next to Jing Yan.


    Lin Lang squatted down, looked at the surprised speech and asked, "are you the Zhao family?"


    Surprised Yan nodded weakly and smiled weakly, "Oh, in fact, I''m not sure, but I''ll soon know whether I''m right or not. Miss Lin, please, please. "


    Lin Lang nodded, looked at Zhuo Xi''s stiff eyes and explained to her, "if she is really the Zhao family, she can use her heart to lead out the son Gu on you. You have to endure some pain. Let''s have a test. " She threw a handkerchief to Xiao Li. "You''ll hold her heart with this later." After that, she pulled out the dagger on Jingyan''s body and was bleeding. When she was about to cut Zhuo Xi''s wrist, a scabbard blocked her wrist. She raised her eyes and saw that it was Jing Yuan and Cui Jiu who came flying. They heard the fighting outside and followed the sound.


    She looked at the blood pouring on Jing Yan''s body, and said urgently, "Lord Hou, let me go first. Jing Yan is using his heart and blood to lead out the son Gu on Zhuo Xi. If you don''t want Jing Yan to die prematurely, get out of the way."


    Jing Yuan saw Xiao soul nodding aside, hesitantly removed the scabbard, and then watched Lin Lang pick a cut in Zhuo Xi''s left wrist with a dagger, and then press the wound on the wound at the heart of startled speech. As soon as she picked, his heart jumped. Fortunately, he only cut a small wrist. It was too late to stop anything wrong. When he saw Zhuo Xi being lit on the acupoints, he had to stretch out his hand to solve it. Lin Lang quickly stopped him, "don''t move without permission. It''s very painful to lead out the child Gu. If you don''t light on the acupoints, I''m afraid you''ll lose a Kui."


    Jing Yuan could only hold her and looked at Zhuo Xi nervously. Zhuo Xi''s face gradually became pale and fine beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead. Only she knew that the bug stung her every day. She was ignorant and unconscious. Now she was crazy. Everywhere she went, there was blood and pain.


    After a while, they saw that there seemed to be a round small bag wandering among the blood on the back of her hand, looking very flustered.


    Surprised Yan lowered his head and saw it. He licked his pale lips and reluctantly smiled, "it seems that I really belong to the Zhao family. I''m sorry, miss. I made you suffer. I''m sorry, marquis. I''ve hurt you too. "


    Jing Yuan snorted coldly and ignored it. He only wiped the sweat on Zhuo Xi''s forehead. Slowly, the round bag on the back of her hand finally found the direction and moved below. Everyone held their breath and knew that the bug was looking for an exit. Sure enough, after a while, Zhuo Xi felt another sharp pain between her wrists, as if something had drilled out. Surprised Yan clapped Zhuo Xi''s wrist with his hand, his chest fluctuated and spewed out a mouthful of blood.


    Lin Lang said, "I met her when I was in the city Lord''s residence before, and she stuffed me a pamphlet. I just studied in the house for a long time before I knew that the Zhao family must use female Yin blood to raise Gu insects for a long time. Therefore, Gu insects naturally have a sense of closeness to the Zhao family''s legitimate blood. It is the most direct and least damaging method to draw out poisonous insects with this heart and mouth blood. Now it seems that this law does work. "


    Jing Yuan held Zhuo Xi in her arms and quickly clicked on her with her other hand to solve her acupoints. Lin Lang has taken out another handkerchief and wrapped it around Zhuo Xi''s wrist. Seeing this, Xiao Li immediately took out a good hemostatic medicine from her arms, handed one to Lin Lang, and the other sprinkled it on Jing Yan''s chest like crazy.


    Lin Lang sprinkled the medicine on Zhuo Xi''s wrist and tied the handkerchief with a knot. Jing Yuan said anxiously, "Xi''er, how do you feel?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled weakly, "that is, the whole body is like being bitten by insects. It hurts."


    Surprised Yan lay down in Xiaoli''s arms. Xiaoli was still pressing her heart, but the blood had flowed uncontrollably. Lin Lang looked at the trickle with regret and said, "surprised, if you sacrifice your life to save the Lord, even if there is a big mistake, it can be written off."


    Surprised speech stammered his lips and looked at Zhuo Xi with some expectation, "Miss, I''m sorry. The maidservant also learned not long ago that she was the daughter of Zhao''s mistress who was abducted and trafficked more than ten years ago. The maidservant listened to Feng Zhao''s words, added something to the Lord''s diet, and led you to eat plums. Just saying these things can relieve the pain of drinking medicine. You can sleep for a day or two at most. I really don''t know. You were poisoned by Zi Gu and hurt the marquis. This time, I brought out Zi Gu. It can be said that I have repaid your kindness. You, can you forgive me? "


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "I didn''t know why you hurt me. Now I understand that you are really the Zhao family. If you are the Zhao family, it is understandable to save the Zhao family. I don''t blame you. Go well. " She knew that no good surgical operation could save the knife edge in the heart.


    Jing Yan said again, "maidservant, maidservant is not to save the Zhao family. Forget it. " She coughed and sighed, "slave, I have a little request. The maidservant is the Zhao family. Can you, after the maidservant dies, bury the maidservant in the Zhao family''s ancestral grave? It''s good to meet my mother I''ve never seen before. "


    Lin Lang also said, "Jing Yan, you also read the pamphlet. You should know that Zhao''s legitimate women raise Gu with blood from generation to generation, so it is difficult to live long. In this way, your mother, the former head mother of the Zhao family, should have deliberately created an abduction and trafficking incident to keep you away from this fate. Unexpectedly, you were wandering around and became an orphan. Now that we know your identity, we will bury you in Zhao''s ancestral grave. In this way, you can rest assured. "


    A smile burst out on his lips, "thank you, thank you, miss. Thank you, Miss Lin. I always thought I was abandoned by my parents and relatives. Now I can return to my roots. My maidservants and servants are in peace when they die. Xiao Li, please take good care of the young lady for me. " With that, her eyes slowly closed and her palms rolled down to the ground. Xiao Li mourned and cried, "sister Jingyan..."


    Seeing this, Jing Yuan picked up Zhuo Xi and went back to his room.


    Cui Jiu came forward to pull Lin Lang, but Lin Lang shook his hand and turned back to his room.


    Wang Qi, who was late to follow, witnessed the whole process and sighed. He copied Cui Jiu''s shoulder with his right hand, "cousin, I think we''d better go to the bar and get drunk to solve thousands of worries."

 Chapter 114

    Zhuo Xi woke up and found herself sleeping on the carriage. The wagons jolted her stomach, which had not eaten for nearly a day and a night, and made her even more hungry. She propped up her body and Jing Yuan, who sat watching the bamboo slips, immediately came to help her, "how do you feel?"


    "I''m so hungry..." as soon as she said this, she saw Jing Yuan''s wolf like eyes and immediately turned her eyes to correct, "I want to eat something to cushion my stomach."


    Jing Yuan coughed and said, "Zi Ran, go and bring a bowl of porridge."


    Zi Ran answered, quickly lifted the curtain, brought a bowl of porridge, put it on the small table in front of them, and went out again.


    Jing Yuan picked up the bowl to feed her. Zhuo Xi grabbed it, "I''ll do it myself. I''m not so weak. It''s really relaxing to sleep. "


    She ate slowly, suddenly remembered and asked, "how to cook porridge in this carriage?"


    "Ben Hou asked Xiao Li to cook them first, and then simmer in the car. You can eat at any time when you wake up."


    "Oh." She took a bite and asked casually, "where are we going?"


    "To benhou''s fief, Liangzhou."


    "Fief?" Zhuo Xi stayed for a while. Well, it seemed that he had military affairs on his trip.


    Jing Yuan hugged her from behind. "Madam, it''s time to inspect our industry."


    Zhuo Xi gushed out a mouthful of porridge, "industry? "Our family?" Why does she think it sounds scary? She was most afraid of accounting in her life. Although she was keen to make money, she asked her to check the accounts one by one and didn''t do it even if she was killed. In her previous life, all the money she earned was directly deposited in the bank. At most, she set a few fixed periods, and the rest were current. She never thought about investment and financial management.


    Jing Yuan moved his head and made himself more comfortable to lean against Zhuo Xi''s neck. His other hand touched her abdomen. "Don''t you mean you came to find a husband with a task?"


    Zhuo Xi helps her forehead. It''s hyacinth''s big mouth again. Can you have a reliable one? She quickly picked up the porridge in the bowl, put it down, knocked off his hand and said seriously, "do you know why the birth rate of babies here is low and the survival rate is lower? If you want to have a baby too early, your mother will have a bad physique. If you don''t have a baby too early, you will have a bad physique. Coupled with poor medical conditions, the baby mortality rate is relatively high. "


    Jing Yuan put his chin on her shoulder and immediately grasped the key point, "are you here?"


    Zhuo Xi choked, "Er. I grew up in the mountains and countryside. I am familiar with women''s production and the best conditions for the growth of babies. Therefore, I always feel that my ideas are different from those of Kyoto Women. "


    Jing Yuan nodded gently and Zhuo Xi hissed, "pain, is your chin a knife?"


    He sighed, "it''s the knife, so Ben hou can slowly carve himself into your heart. Let you never forget me. "


    Zhuo Xi leaned back to make herself more comfortable. "You''ve been engraved in my heart. You don''t have to spit blood and pretend to die again." She felt Jing Yuan behind her stiff and cool in her heart.


    He asked dully, "is it really difficult for a woman to have children because she is too young when she is pregnant?"


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was an excellent opportunity to popularize pregnancy knowledge, and immediately said, "it''s natural. Although a woman''s body develops at the beginning of 28, it becomes mature at 18. However, the best pregnancy period should be after 20. At this time, the body is also strong, and the baby born is naturally smart and healthy, so that both adults and children are physically and mentally healthy. "


    He bit his lip and breathed a sigh of relief. "I see."


    She wondered, "why?"


    He held her arm tightly. "That''s why you have to drink medicine after everything?"


    She stifled. "You already know?"


    "Yes. Ben Hou always thought you didn''t want to have ben Hou''s child. It really hurt me for a long time. "


    Zhuo Xi turned around, holding his face in both hands and said, "we agreed not to deceive, hide or hurt each other. I forgot to make it clear to you. But if you have any questions, you can ask me first. Don''t be bored in your heart anymore. Aren''t you asking for trouble? "


    Jing Yuan smiled on his face and kissed him, "Ben Hou has been waiting for you to recruit yourself. Who knows it has been so long. He said, "is there anything else Ben Hou doesn''t know?"


    Zhuo Xi struggled to escape from his kiss, "no, no, I think."


    His lips covered again, "really not? The story of Wang qicui Jiu didn''t tell me. "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and struggled out, "ah! There''s really one thing! "


    His black face is really related to Wang qicui Jiu?


    Zhuo Xi grabbed his hand and went straight, "it''s Lin lang. she wants something in Wulin mountain." She had a bad feeling.


    "A black oil?" Yilin Lang''s shrewdness must have talked to him.


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes are black. Isn''t it oil¡° Did you promise her? "


    Jing Yuan frowned, "Zi Ran said that he had indeed seen that thing in the mountains. Black seven flowed down from the rock. No one knows what that''s for. That thing is very useful? "


    Zhuo Xi grasped his hand, "useful, very useful! It''s of great use! You didn''t give it to her? " In particular, Cui Jiu is the prince of a neighboring country. Now no matter military or civilian, he can''t give in!


    He hissed and broke her fingers off his arm one by one. "No, no, you shouldn''t be so nervous."


    She exhaled and kissed him on the face. "It''s true that she has been with smart people for a long time, and her IQ has improved a lot."


    "But," he slowly wiped his face, "she helped us a lot anyway. If you don''t say you have a life-saving grace, at least you have the meaning of shooting. So Ben Hou said, "he stopped." although Wulin mountain is Ben Hou''s industry, Ben Hou has decided to take it as a bride price to marry Xi''er. "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked and grabbed his hand. "What are you talking about?! That Wulin mountain belongs to me now?! "


    Jing Yuan nodded and looked at her expectantly, "how''s it going, isn''t it a surprise?"


    "Surprise! But I can''t She looked at his discolored face and immediately explained, "last time I said if it was mine, I would give her half, but this Wulin mountain is not mine, so I can refuse her. No, no, I must not. "


    Jing Yuan blackened his face.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "Sir, if you really want to give me anything, any other Chuang Tzu, shop, what, which is not worth more than Wulin mountain?" She despised herself in her heart. Now that oil has been discovered in Wulin mountain, it is definitely a golden mountain.


    He closed his eyes and thought of Lin Lang''s words that day: "I heard that the Marquis was going to marry his sister. My sister is gorgeous and intelligent. I don''t know if the bride price is thick enough?"


    He didn''t want to tell her that he would give her the Wulin mountain and half of the fiefs inside and outside Liangzhou city as a bride price. At first glance, he was deeply despised. On impulse, he blurted out, "now the bride price from 300 miles west of zhaojialing to 600 miles in Liangzhou city is from Ben Hou!"


    "Including Wulin mountain?"


    "Wulin mountain is only a hundred miles away, which is naturally included!"


    Zhuo Xi saw that his face was bad, and the hunch came again. "You haven''t told her that Wulin mountain is for me?"


    He tightened his eyebrows and nodded.


    Zhuo Xi almost beat her chest and feet. She didn''t want to make a joke, so she sent half of the oil. That''s oil, which is called liquid gold!


    At this time, Zi Ran shouted outside, "Hou Ye."


    Jing Yuan said, "what''s up?"


    Zi Ran didn''t speak. Jing Yuan got up and was about to lift the curtain and jump down. She grabbed him. "Isn''t your business urgent? Zi Ran, I just wanted to ask you something. If it''s not urgent, can you let the carriage stop for a while? "


    "Yes." He turned and gave orders to the back, and stood outside the car respectfully. Zhuo Xi wanted to get up, Jing Yuan pressed her, "your body is still empty, or crooked, just ask. It doesn''t hurt that the carriage behind hasn''t caught up yet. "


    She had to lie back and think about it. It was not suitable to mention the mine cave. She whispered, "Zi Ran, did you see a strange black liquid when you and Xiao soul went to Wulin mountain that day?"


    Zi Ran thought a little, "yes or no, it seems that it flows out very slowly from the gap between the rocks and is dried by the wind on the rock wall."


    "Where did the discovery come from? How many did you find? "


    Zi Ran said, "it seems that only the mountain stream has been found, which has not been seen in other places. We were not very frightened when we saw that the water in the stream was dyed black. Master, what''s the use of this thing? "


    She closed her eyes and her chest fluctuated violently, thinking that half of the oil had been given away in her slip of the tongue. She said weakly, "forget it, there''s nothing else. You''re busy."


    Jing Yuan looked at her anxiously, lifted the curtain of the car, jumped out of the carriage and walked away with Zi Ran.


    She had to close her eyes and take a deep breath. What''s the situation of Wulin mountain? She hasn''t been there yet. She must find a time to explore. I hope the reserves won''t be too large. In her heart, she silently recalled the map Zi Ran gave her last time. The Wulin mountain is located between zhaojialing, Qingyun town and Liangzhou. It is a grand canyon facing the city on three sides.


    Vaguely heard the sound of gongs and drums in the distance. After a while, the music approached and went away. She lifted the curtain of the car and saw that a red dragon team had gone away by another road.


    I don''t know where the bridal carriage came from. I don''t know where the bridal carriage stopped


    Xiao Ji''s voice echoed, "indeed. Tut Tut, look at the red satin covered on the carriage. I''m afraid it came from Kyoto? Looking at the bright color, it is estimated that only Feiyu Zui Yuxuan has it. "


    Xiao Li scolded in a hoarse voice, "what expert are you pretending to be? How many times have you been there? I''m afraid you can''t even step over the threshold? "


    Little darling hehe a few times, "I just took some good clothes for sister min and made clothes for her family treasure. Sister min is still blessed. Although she was driven out by her wife, I heard that she has a lot of private money hidden in her hands. "


    Xiao Ji smacked her lips. "I say, sister min is very particular about it. Bao''er can''t wear clothes without wearing them for a few months. What do you want such good clothes for? It''s the donkey glue that she suckles every day. It''s only ten dollars to buy one or two! Once, I stole a bite, tut Tut, that taste... "


    Xiao Li slapped on her shoulder, "dead girl, can you not eat without three sentences?..."


    Zhuo Xi listened and her anger dissipated a lot. Judging from the voice and intonation of these little sisters, it is estimated that she has slowly come out of the sadness of startled speech leaving. They laugh and make noise nearby, which adds color to the monotonous journey all the way.


    She coughed and shouted, "Xiao Ji, do you have hot tea?"


    "Hey, miss, you''re awake!" Xiao Ji''s happy voice came, "I''ll bring it to you right away."


    After a while, the curtain of the car opened and Lin Lang came up. She put a small long beaked pot into the car before she got on the car with another small box. She took out some cakes from the small box, took two transparent glass lamps from the bottom of the box, and poured the tea in the pot directly into the lamp. Zhuo Xi exclaimed, "you are really a talent, and you can make the predecessor of this glass out. In that case, what do you want the scalpel for? "

 Chapter 115

    Lin Lang sat down and said, "I can''t give you a drink now without tools. Just make do with it. Who said I wanted the scalpel? That''s just a code word. Do you understand the code word? "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, "thanks to my research for nearly ten days, I made a thin scalpel. It seems that you can only keep it for yourself. "


    "Yes, we can continue to benefit the ancients. By the way, do you study medicine? "


    "No, I''m a pharmacologist. Surgery is really a sideline, not proficient. And you? "


    Lin Lang took a sip of tea. "I''m a geology major, so I happen to know that there is oil in your Wulin mountain."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it''s really direct for you to introduce the topic so soon." Geology majors also know human skin masks? It is estimated that like her, she is also a killer agent. She knows a little about everything, focuses on several areas and is proficient.


    "That is. Don''t you think it''s urgent to make money in this unfamiliar place? " Lin Lang smiled.


    "I don''t want money. I don''t want dirt." Zhuo Xi talks big. In the face of this treacherous colleague in the 21st century, she has no sense of guilt about lying.


    Lin Lang said angrily, "do you think I''m short of food, clothes and men?"


    Zhuo Xi said leisurely, "if your lover becomes your brother, you can learn from the blue love of life and death in the two Song Dynasties..."


    "Oh, Pooh, Pooh, I''m not terminally ill. I don''t know who it is. It''s a shame for us in the new century. " Lin Lang looked worried and depressed. "After thousands of years, we people on earth really have no way to live?"


    Zhuo Xi''s brain hole opened. "You mean this is not the earth?"


    Lin Lang shrugged, "who knows, maybe not, maybe another earth. The territory here is different from the world map we know. "


    There was a dull noise overhead. Zhuo Xi was inspired. Lin Lang understood it and immediately remedied, "Hey, speaking of it, it''s better for our hometown. Life is convenient, transportation is convenient, food is also much, and there are no slaves and maidservants. The most important thing is that there are not so many people with excellent martial arts who can fly around to point human acupoints. "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "ah, yes. I don''t know when I can go back to my hometown and have another look. " They succeeded in changing the concept. Whether Xiao soul understood it or not, Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and said to the window, "Xiao soul, this girl and Lin Lang have some personal words to say. You go away and drive out the people around you."


    Xiao soul was sweating and flew away. Before she left, she deliberately stepped on the roof to let them know she was gone.


    "Shit!" Zhuo Xi gave a low scold. No matter who it was, it was always uncomfortable to step on the hood above his head.


    She said to Lin Lang in English, "forget it, let''s speak a language they don''t understand. Are you going back to Liangzhou with us? "


    Lin Lang was about to vomit blood. "If your aunt hadn''t been in the car, would I have to climb out of the warm quilt early in the morning to chase you?"


    "Did you come after me on purpose? What are you doing? " Zhuo Xi regretted as soon as she asked. It was like giving her a door.


    Sure enough, Lin Lang said gratefully, "sure enough, she is my good sister. I''m just for your Wulin mountain. "


    "What, my Wulin mountain? Wulin mountain is not mine. " Zhuo Xi fought tenaciously and said she would not admit it.


    "Hey, hey, don''t pretend. Your men have told me that the mountain is your bride price!"


    "Oh, is that so?" Zhuo Xi pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, why don''t I know?"


    "Don''t you think you''re too fake? So fake, how can you be Mrs. Hou? Oh, that''s right. In ancient times, your housewives were more and more fake, and more and more capable of acting. "


    Zhuo Xi spread his hands and said, "forget it, tell me, what are you going to do?"


    Lin Lang smiled, took out a map, brightly prepared to grab resources, pointed to the mountains above and said, "you see, there is your mine pit in the south of Wulin Mountain Grand Canyon, hidden in the hinterland of the mountain, and a low mountain in the north is the oil field. When I was avoiding the pursuit of Zisang country in Wulin mountain, I explored by the way. The preliminary estimation of the storage capacity was about 200000 tons. At the current level of excavation, even a gram can not be extracted. But if I take the initiative, it is conservatively estimated that it will be no problem to drive him for 200 years. What''s the matter? Are you stupid? "


    Zhuo Xi opened her mouth. She really knows little about oil exploitation. If she wants to really dig and realize, technically she has to rely on Lin Lang, but the most important problem is that she is from other countries.


    Lin Lang looked at her expression with satisfaction and continued, "do you think of Middle East Arabia? Think of Dubai full of gold in the world? As long as you let the soldiers guarding Wulin mountain let us in, I''ll be responsible for mining and refining. Within six months, you can lie down on Jinshan and sleep. Your man really gave you a good baby! "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly asked, "do you have an ID card?"


    Lin Lang was stunned. She didn''t know how she changed the topic so naturally. She subconsciously replied, "don''t cool the country? No. "


    She replied with satisfaction, "I asked my master to give you the identity of a people who don''t want Liang Zi, but the premise is that you can''t disclose this resource and technical secrets to other countries. You may do it?"


    "Shit, are you a mother or a spy?! It''s easy for me to get rid of... "She immediately covered her mouth," shit, I''ve been here for a long time, and my vigilance has decreased a lot. To tell you the truth, I''m also a person who died once. I just want to make money and enjoy life again. I don''t participate in the boring things of fighting and opening up new territories. Zisanna country was born to be against me. I''m not going back. In this way, we can sign a confidentiality agreement. Resources belong to you. You can''t exploit them in less than 200 years. You have the initiative in resources. If I break the agreement one day, you can turn against me at any time. Without resources, no amount of technology I have is useless, isn''t it? "


    Zhuo Xi heard clearly, "this is OK. Wulin mountain has its own security and logistics force. I will fully guarantee your mining, refining and sales. You are responsible for civil and I am responsible for military. How about? " The whole mountain forest is in her own hands. She is not afraid of any changes.


    Lin Lang was overjoyed and nodded again and again, "exactly! I want to fill the whole world with coal and lighter! "


    "By the way, slowly infiltrate the whole purple mulberry economy, and finally master the economic lifeline of purple mulberry in your own hands?"


    They looked at each other and smiled, "ha ha ha."


    Jing Yuan''s voice sounded outside, "what are you talking about? So happy? "


    Lin Lang lifted the curtain and resumed his normal language. "I heard you made a lot of jasmine tea. I like it best. When I returned to Beijing, I sent me several big bags. I''ll go back to zhaojialing first and wait for your news! "


    "No, come with me all the way. Let''s discuss that." Zhuo Xi asked her to stay. In fact, she was still thinking about another technology in Lin Lang''s hand. If it could be combined with this oil field, it would be a big killer in the world.


    Jing Yuan blackened his face and said, "no, your body is still recuperating. Don''t bother all the way. Wait until you get back to Liangzhou. If Miss Lin has something to discuss with my wife, she might as well go to Liangzhou together. "


    Lin Lang thought, "very reasonable. Well, we''ll see you when we get to Liangzhou. " She quickly got out of the carriage.


    Jing Yuan got on the carriage. The party began to move forward again.


    Zhuo Xi leaned back into Jingyuan''s arms, "do you want to know what our sisters just said?"


    Jing Yuan said coldly, "No. A big man of Ben Hou has a good chance to participate in the conversation between your boudoir sisters? "


    Zhuo Xi chuckled, didn''t speak, and closed her eyes. I don''t know now. I''ll give you a big surprise later.


    Jing Yuan is black again. He doesn''t want to know. He just listened outside the door for a long time and didn''t understand a word. Isn''t it clear that he doesn''t let others know such a secret conversation?


    Zhuo Xi suddenly opened her eyes and asked, "Sir, I haven''t had a chance to ask you. Why did you let mother Wu lock me in Kyoto until March 3?"


    Jing Yuan said, "everything is under control during my trip. I''m afraid you''ll come here at random after hearing some bad news. Therefore, I specially explained that mother Wu left you in Kyoto."


    "Everything is under control? Is that colorful jade pendant also in your plan? "


    Jing Yuan shook his head, "that jade pendant is a long story. I thought they were luring me with the medicine to relieve Gu, but what they said was another old thing. I''ll take you to the Gelao people when you''re here. "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. At that time, he took risks alone for his own antidote? What happened in those days¡° Can you tell me where they lured you in those days? How did you escape? "


    "Yeh Chi people have their own nature. Other Gelao people also tracked down some old events here, so they met Yeh and helped him. So my lord played his game and disappeared. "


    "Since the married groom is fake, why do they urge the son Gu in me to assassinate him?"


    Jing Yuan nodded, "they originally wanted to kill Ye directly and replace him with Yan Lan. However, after they found that ye escaped from them the next day, they began to make great efforts to prepare for the wedding, so as to attract you and Ben Hou Qiqi to appear at the wedding site, and then urge the son insects in your body. If the assassination fails, they can also use you to cause chaos in our side. They thought Ben was the one who got the male Gu. Even if you were the assassin, you wouldn''t get the wrong object, but they never thought it was Yan Lan who got the male Gu. But fortunately, you didn''t do it. You got the injury in your palm at that time, didn''t you? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "yes, when I saw Yan Lan, I really didn''t know why I had a great hatred in my heart, so I was going to rush up and kill him. Fortunately, Lin Lang held me so tightly that I stabbed several blood holes in the palm of my hand with a dagger to keep awake. "


    "Fool, Ben hou would rather you did it at that time than hurt yourself."


    "But there''s another doubt. Since you didn''t hit the male Gu, how can I find the target on the night of Shangyuan Festival?"


    "Ben Hou thought that when the Japanese Hou turned his back to you, the instruction you received was to assassinate the person in front of you, no matter who that person is."


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh, finally knew what had happened at that time, and remembered another thing, "if I had been poisoned by Zi Gu, what about Yan Lan? Didn''t you have long been hit by male Gu? "

 Chapter 116

    "It should be. Cousin ya''er said that she met Feng Zhao in Kyoto. Feng Zhao must have given her yuchuan''er in Kyoto and asked her to give it to Ben Hou. As a result, Yan Lan was leading the people of the prison gate to ambush Ben Hou in Kyoto. Maybe one day they happened to collide somewhere, so she sent zhuchuan''er out. Yan Lan was inconvenient to express her identity, so she would make a mistake. On the day of Shangyuan Festival, he had no martial arts and should not have appeared on the boat, so you had no other feeling. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "OK."


    When her doubts were solved, she fell asleep.


    The carriage finally stopped in front of a big inn. Jing Yuan helped her out of the car, smiled and told the people behind, "go and move everything into the inn first. Zi Ran, you can arrange it."


    The crowd answered.


    He took Zhuo Xi''s waist, bypassed the Inn and entered one side of the busy street. This is a crossroads.


    First, they entered an antique calligraphy and painting shop called "qiwenzhai". Zhuo Xi went in and scanned his eyes. He was not very expert and lacked interest. Instead, the grey bearded shopkeeper greeted him in fear, but his tone was familiar, "how are you, marquis! The little old man hasn''t seen the Marquis for two years. Now he is very relieved to see that the Marquis is handsome. This must be Mrs. Hou? The little old man is polite. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly returned the gift, and Jing Yuan was not polite. He sat down in the house and poured a cup of tea to Zhuo XI by himself. "Old boss Yan, can you do business in the past two years?"


    "Lord Lao inquired. There has been no war in the south in the past two years, and there are more and more elegant people. The business of qiwenzhai is getting better and better, and the Lord has reduced taxes for two years. Which family in this town is not getting more and more prosperous?"


    Jing Yuan nodded, "is there anything she doesn''t pay back in Liangzhou city?"


    The shopkeeper said, "no, No. since the Marquis disposed of the man surnamed Wu that year, the wind of she''s debt gradually disappeared. In particular, we qiwenzhai all know that there is a marquis standing behind us. Who dares not to pay back? "


    "This is a jewelry firm. Although the style and scale can''t compare with the Feiyu Zui Yuxuan you operated in Kyoto, what can you see?"


    "This is a grain shop, which circulates Chen Mi''s new grain in Liangzhou city and several nearby counties. Looking at this, it seems that it has expanded a lot compared with last year. "


    "This is..."


    When the shopkeeper or the shopkeeper goes in and asks him to sit down, it seems that every shopkeeper or the shopkeeper will have a break. The business scope covers food, calligraphy and painting, jewelry, stationery, and an escort agency. Zhuo Xi was dizzy, but he found that he had a wide range of knowledge. He could talk to any industry, and he could find a key point at the right place.


    Apart from the jewelry shop, which he asked her to pick and choose, she really didn''t feel the need to visit other shops. What''s she doing this afternoon?


    She was dizzy and finally walked out of the ugly escort agency. She couldn''t help pulling his sleeve, "let''s go back?"


    He was a little dissatisfied, "I''ve only gone five, and I don''t look at the back?"


    She nodded. "Well, I''m a little hungry."


    His discontent was immediately swept away, raised his hand and pointed, "let''s eat in this restaurant, which is the best restaurant in Liangzhou city."


    She nodded, looked around and asked anxiously, "why don''t you ask them to come out and eat together? Is it really not cold to hide in the trees in this winter? "


    Jing Yuan was stunned, laughed and made a gesture. She didn''t know where to drill out three people. One of them she recognized was Xiao soul. The other two haven''t met since they met in zhaojialing last time.


    But soon Jing Yuan found that this was really a bad idea. Although he still showed his love as if no one else was there, Zhuo Xi was obviously not used to it and repeatedly refused his dishes. In other words, he really missed his days in Kyoto. He was not only pregnant with warm and fragrant nephrite, but also delicious and novel food every day. However, he was excited when he thought that he might be able to eat fresh dishes every day in the future.


    When I went out of the restaurant after I had enough to eat and drink, it was sunset. He caught a glimpse of Zhuo Xi yawning with her mouth covered, raised her hand and made a gesture. After a while, a carriage stopped in front of the crowd. He jumped up, stretched out a hand to Zhuo Xi and said, "Xi''er, Lao sun has come to pick it up. Go up and have a rest."


    Zhuo Xi was elated. She grabbed his hand and got into the car. She fell asleep. This body is really much worse than before. I always want to sleep lazily. God, it''s finally open. Let her make up for her insomnia in her previous life bit by bit? This was her last thought before she fell asleep.


    She was carried into the room in a daze. She fell into a soft quilt and slept until dawn. When she woke up, the room was dark and could not see anything. She stretched out her arm, felt the cold air, shivered, and went back to bed.


    I don''t know when, suddenly it seems that some hands dragged her up. She reluctantly opened her eyes and glanced. Seeing that it was Xiao Li and Xiao Ji, she muttered, "what are you doing?"


    Xiao Li said happily, "I''m going out of the cabinet today. Get up, miss. We''ll freshen you up."


    What''s out of the cabinet? Why does that sound so awkward? She ignored and kept her eyes closed.


    Xiao Ji said with a smile, "sister Xiao Li, you can''t open her eyes."


    "It doesn''t hurt if you can''t open it. Forget it, let''s just carry her to freshen up. It''s been dusty for a few days. It''s time to have a good wash. "


    As soon as Zhuo Xi heard this, she tried her best to open her mouth and said, "Xiao Li really got my heart." They closed their eyes and went to sleep again, so they tossed about. After a while, I felt that I was in a warmer embrace, as comfortable as the hot spring before, so I completely lost consciousness.


    When Zhuo Xi was really awake, she was awakened by a sharp stabbing pain on her head. She suddenly opened her eyes. In front of her was a huge bronze mirror. In the mirror, people''s face was white and lips were red. It was a new dress. It was Kou Niang who put jewelry in her head.


    She immediately stood up and found herself covered in red, "what''s going on? Kou Niang, why are you here? "


    Mrs. Kou smiled happily. "Madam, I''m lucky to help you get your property dowry here in Kyoto. How can I not catch up with a cup of wedding wine?"


    "Wedding wine? Whose? " Zhuo Xi asked in a daze.


    Kou Niang covered her mouth and said with a smile, "madam, naturally it belongs to you and the Marquis!" She pressed Zhuo Xi on the chair again. "Wait a minute. The old lady is lucky to dress you up. Just sit down. It''s the last thing."


    The door was pushed open again. Xiao Li came over with a box. "These are happy clothes and shoes. Put them on for the young lady."


    Zhuo Xi was at their mercy, and her mind gradually cleared up. She asked, "when did you know that? Why didn''t anyone tell me? "


    Kou Niang smiled and laughed, "Hou ye said he wanted to surprise you. How can I talk more?"


    She looked at Xiao Li and Xiao Ji. "You already know that?"


    Xiao Li also smiled, "Miss, don''t wrong the slaves and maidservants. The slaves and maidservants also came to this Chuang Tzu yesterday. They only knew when they saw the full yard decorated with joy. But miss, you''ve been sleeping since you came back yesterday, and the slaves didn''t find a chance to tell you."


    She was suddenly nervous, "Kou Niang, what did you just say? You sent all my property as a dowry? "


    Kou Niang said with a smile, "yes, Hou ye said that the girl''s property is his, and his property is also the girl''s. Naturally, nothing is hidden. "


    Zhuo Xi became more nervous. "Do you have a list?"


    "Of course." After inserting the last side hairpin, Kou Niang put a huge Phoenix crown on the table for her, wiped her hands, and took out a long red silk from her arms.


    Zhuo Xi grabbed it and looked down, regardless of the Phoenix crown weighing more than ten kilograms on her head. Every time she looked at it, she felt heartache. Zhenzhener was the dividend silver that she had existed in the warehouse of the Marquis house, some jewelry she had bought, what, the yard of sanxiangfang also became a dowry?!


    Kou Niang continued, "the following list is the new dividends in recent months. The richer you want the dowry, the better. The old slave added it on his own. And those shares... "She saw Zhuo Xi more and more distressed, and her voice became lower and lower.


    Zhuo Xi said angrily, "he really did a good business!" He knew that she was not compatible with the Wu family, so none of the Wu family appeared, and there would be no dowry, so he started from Kou Niang?


    Xiao Li asked, "why did you say that, miss?"


    "This is all my hard-earned money."


    Xiao Li still didn''t understand, "your hard-earned money hasn''t been lost, is it still yours?"


    Zhuo Xi had a flash of inspiration. Yes, although it was a dowry, he married, and the control of these properties was still his own.


    Kou Niang understood. She hated iron but not steel. "My Lord''s wife, what do you think?! Look at this! " She took out a pair of red silk from her arms and handed it to her.


    When she opened it, she found that they were all Chuang Tzu from unknown place names. Eh, didn''t she see this strange Wen Zhai yesterday? And the rice food shop, the snack shop, the jewelry shop, the big hotel... It turns out that he took her to see it for a long time yesterday. Are they all his own bride price?!


    Kou Niang said with a smile, "although you have a lot of dowry property, it is far less than the dowry of Hou Ye!"


    Zhuo Xi looked more and more satisfied. She couldn''t help but look up and "ha ha" laughed three times, but she was cold. The Phoenix crown on her head almost fell.


    Lin Lang''s voice also floated in, "you have shallow eyelids. Don''t finish dressing up quickly! The bridegroom is at the corner! " As soon as the voice fell, Zhuo Xi grabbed the red silk in her hand by Lin Lang. She squinted at it, shook her head and nodded, "tut tut Tut, it''s really a big deal ~ the area of Liangzhou city is only 600 miles, and he gave you a bride price of 500 miles!"


    Zhuo Xi smiled back, "what do you envy? Your brother will have the whole purple mulberry country in the visible future. At that time, what dowry and dowry do you want? "


    Lin Lang grabbed her hand. "I stress again that he is not my man or my brother!"


    Zhuo Xi shrugged, "well, if you say no, it''s not. You''re going to be a national anyway, but you can''t be a traitor! "


    Lin Lang couldn''t laugh or cry. "Seriously, with this gift list, you can''t cheat anymore! You personally promised to share half of my shares. I want half of the shares of the Wulin mountain oil exploitation project. "

 Chapter 117

    Zhuo Xi stroked her chest and snatched the red silk back. "Haven''t you heard of the joint property of husband and wife? Although Wulin mountain is one of the dowry gifts, I still have to marry. I only have half of the property rights, so your half can only be half of mine. "


    Xiao Li couldn''t understand them, but she tossed about the happy clothes. Only Kou Niang pricked her ears and listened to a little knowledge.


    Lin Lang was angry. "Why are you cheating again?! Go back! "


    Zhuo Xi said, "you see, although Wulin mountain is given to me as a bride price, the security and logistics operation in the mountain is all operated by the people of my marquis. They also want to eat. I ask you, what if you get that half of the oil? Can you mine and refine alone? You don''t need skilled workers? No need for security? No need for a transport team? No need for canteen slurry center? Even if you want to sell civilian products to various countries, you don''t need merchant guides and camel teams? " In a word, the oil refinery can''t operate without the nod and support of Hou Ye.


    Lin Lang gritted his teeth and said, "you are cruel! But a quarter is too little. I want 40%


    "Thirty percent! You have to add your fire thunder upgrade formula! " Zhuo Xi raised a finger.


    Kou Niang heard something and asked cautiously, "what are you two doing to make money? How many business lines does the old woman have in Wuliang? I wonder if she has the honor to participate? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at Kou Niang, "you can take shares, accounting for 10% for every 300000 yuan. Make sure you make a lot of money. " She was regarded as her mother''s family by the Marquis to send her a wedding. This face had to be given.


    Kou Niang opened her mouth. My God, what is this business? Three hundred thousand dollars to get 10% of the shares? But she never doubted what the girl said and agreed.


    "Kou Niang, how much do you expect?"


    Kou Niang was still calculating the movable silver money in her heart. Lin Lang couldn''t hold it, "OK, I accounted for 30% of the achievements! Well said, technology shares. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "deal, you go back and draw up an agreement. Kou Niang, don''t forget it. Take 10% first! We have other profitable businesses behind us. The future is long. "


    Kou Niang was regretting that she didn''t have enough money to turn around. She immediately agreed with a smile and thanked her thousands of thanks.


    Just then, my little darling ran in and gasped, "Hou, Hou, no, the bridegroom is here."


    As soon as Lin Lang heard the spirit, he immediately ran out, "come with me. Don''t let him in easily!"


    Xiaoji and Xiaoguai ran out, leaving Xiaoli and Kou Niang in the room. Xiaoli smiled and scolded, "this Lin girl really likes to join the fun, but Xiaoji and Xiaoguai are too unruly. I have to talk about them later!"


    Zhuo Xi finished wearing her whole body, sat on the edge of the bed, covered her head and waited. She smiled and said, "forget it, you are all children. What''s the fun of pretending to be so old? Just don''t be like... "


    She was surprised that the topic should not be mentioned today, so she stopped talking. But he caught a glimpse of a figure flopping down under the hood, "Miss, no, madam, I don''t have time to talk to you these days. I don''t know why sister Jingyan did such a wrong thing. Xiao Li is helpless and will never be coerced to do something wrong to you and the Marquis! "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "well, get up first. I''m not trying to force you to show loyalty. I''m really broken. It doesn''t matter, I...... "Shu Yue said in surprise. She was really hurt.


    Xiaoli cried before her and fell on her lap. "Xiaoli will follow such a good person as miss all her life."


    "Miss, miss!" Xiao Ji shouted and rushed in. Kou Niang, who was wiping tears on one side, knocked her on the head. "What can''t you say slowly? Should you be so surprised? Also, from now on, I''ll change my name to madam! "


    Xiao Li quickly got up and stood aside to wipe her tears. Xiao Ji happily took the red envelope in her arms to the bed. "Look, sister Xiao Li, these are the wedding money that Miss Lin asked the bridegroom''s official son for!"


    Zhuo Xi lost his smile. Lin Lang brought all their bad habits. I don''t know how much Jing Yuan was blackmailed.


    Xiao Ji said excitedly, "you don''t know. Miss Lin is so smart that she asked him three questions and didn''t answer them. That''s why I spilled so much wedding money. Little darling is still picking it up outside. "


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help asking, "what question did she ask?"


    Xiao Ji touched her head and thought, "the first problem is that the sheep came out on the grassland. Guess a fruit. Then the wolf came out again and guessed another fruit. The third question is that a turtle jumped off a cliff and guessed a flower. "


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help laughing. How can they know the skills of doing problems¡° What about now? "


    Xiao Ji said, "when I first came in, the bridegroom was sprinkling Litchi Water and was ready to pick you up."


    As soon as he finished, a voice outside the door shouted, "the time is up - the bride is out of the cabinet."


    A pudgy bride then stepped in, ran to Zhuo Xi and took her hand. "Is the bride ready? Please start -- "


    Zhuo Xi then stood up, her neck was beginning to sour, and staggered out the door.


    The bride took her and stood still on the steps, shouting, "the bride is out."


    After a while, a black figure squatted down in front of her. The wedding mother shouted, "carry the bride -"


    She fell on the back of the person in front of her and immediately smelled the familiar smell.


    She asked strangely, "why is the bridegroom carrying the bride? Isn''t this brother-in-law''s task? "


    Jing Yuan was full of black lines. "The custom of Liangzhou is that the bridegroom comes to carry the bride in person."


    "Well, all right." Zhuo Xi didn''t speak, and the sweet feeling in his heart slowly rippled open.


    He asked in a low voice, "Xi''er, are you happy?"


    She leaned over his ear and whispered, "well, it''s very happy."


    He chuckled, "Oh, me too. I''ve never been so happy for a moment."


    After a pause, he said, "Xier, originally I wanted to wait until March 3 to go back to Kyoto to hold this wedding. Who knows you came to Liangzhou. I had to let Kou Niang run far away. After all, Liangzhou is our home. "


    "I see." No wonder when she was in Kyoto, mother Wu said she would keep her until March 3. She immediately asked anxiously, "is it really good for you to make such a big fuss? Not afraid to blame the one above? "


    He said aggressively, "can he decide that I can marry whoever I want?"


    She was very comfortable and teased him, "then why hide outside this wilderness?"


    His voice was angry. "What a wilderness! But which servant chewed his tongue in front of you?! This is Ben Hou''s biggest Chuang Tzu outside Liangzhou city! You leave the cabinet without your mother''s house, so you have to choose the largest Chuang Tzu to be your mother''s house when it comes! Now Ben Hou will take you to the general''s house in Liangzhou town! Who dares to gossip? "


    Zhuo Xi gave a shout and hurriedly explained, "I slept until this morning last night. How can any servant have the opportunity to talk nonsense in front of me. I''m just kidding. " Then he leaned happily on his back and stopped talking. Soon outside, he put her down and let her get into a flower sedan surrounded by red gauze. Then the sound of gongs and drums became louder and spread far and far.


    Not long after, the sedan chair stopped at a place. She covered her head with a lid and couldn''t see anything. She just got off the flower sedan chair mechanically under the guidance of Xi Niang. From a distance, she heard Jing Hua''s voice, "Uncle six is here! You''re all ready! " There was a commotion around.


    Jing Yuan walked in front of her, but suddenly stepped down. She saw his feet turn back. He said, "Xi''er, wait for me for a while." She nodded and stood there.


    The people around gradually stopped teasing, and several made suspicious noises¡° Isn''t that Yu Liang? "


    "Why is he here?"


    "Wasn''t he found out that he made a mistake and was transferred by the general to be the city guard?"


    "Why does he look anxious? Is there an enemy outside the city? "


    "It''s impossible. There''s an enemy situation. Can we not know?"


    She listened quietly and waited quietly.


    After a while, he came back and said anxiously, "Xi''er, if heaven and earth can''t worship, will you blame me?"


    Zhuo Xi lifted the red scarf and said with a quiet smile, "I didn''t know about the wedding before, so I had no expectations. No, although it''s a pity, there''s no resentment. At most, I''ll punish you for making up the bride price again next time! "


    Jing Yuan''s anxiety relaxed a little, "although I can secretly prepare for this wedding without telling you. But I can''t hide it from you right now. I must go back to Kyoto at once. "


    She looked up. "What''s the matter?" In such a hurry, only one person is involved, "is it the Empress Dowager?" She asked.


    Jing Yuan nodded and unfolded the note just sent by Yu Liang. She looked at it with a fixed eye. The word "Empress Dowager is critically ill" was written on it.


    She threw her head on the ground and told Xiao Li and Lin Lang, "Lin Lang, write an agreement and send someone to Kyoto for me. Xiao Li, you help to pack up everything, and then go to Kyoto to find me. "


    There, Zi Ran had come riding a horse and led a horse. Jing Yuan stepped on the horse first and put his hand to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "Once they ride slowly, the horse is easy to die. Ziran, can you give me your horse?"


    Zi ran quickly jumped down, "madam, you......" can you ride a horse? Not only him, but also Jing Yuan was very surprised.


    She stepped on the horse in red and was valiant. Jing Yuan couldn''t help looking stunned. She said loudly, "my husband, even if the road ahead is long, my body is willing to accompany you to the soup, fire and thorns!"


    Jing Yuan laughed and hugged the stunned people in front of the door, "I have to rush to Kyoto in case of emergency. Hua''er, you are responsible for all military affairs here. Generals, I have entrusted Liangzhou to you! "


    Jing Hua quickly said, "don''t worry, uncle Liu, you..."


    Others said conditionally, "Lord, please rest assured!"


    Jing Yuan threw up his whip and shot out like a horse arrow. Zhuo Xi immediately ran out with him. Dressed in red, dancing in the wind.


    Everyone was stunned. Lin Lang, who came late, was stunned. Did he run away? What about the agreed wedding banquet? What about heaven and earth? What about the wedding? Also, is this an elopement?

 Chapter 118

    In the Ci''an palace, the Empress Dowager lay in bed with her eyes closed. Mother Su looked at the fireworks in the incense burner and saw that the sandalwood inside was about to burn out. She took a small piece from the side grid and added it to the incense burner. Seeing the light smoke rising slowly, she slowly covered the wisp of empty cover.


    There was a whispered report from the maid in charge outside, "mother Su, the Empress Dowager''s medicine has been fried and cool. Do you want to come in?"


    Mammy Su glanced at the sleeping empress dowager, walked gently to the door and whispered, "let''s warm up first, and then cook some yam porridge to simmer. Come back later. "


    "Promise." The little maidservant answered softly and walked away with the food box.


    Mother Su gently returned to the table and sat down. The Empress Dowager''s body has been getting worse and worse in the past two months. In fact, she knew the reason. When the Empress Dowager was young, she fell in love with the former king. After the former king died, the Empress Dowager was like this. She slept for a little half a year before slowly recovering from the pain. But at that time, the Empress Dowager was still in good health. In the past two years, she was obviously much worse than before. How can she endure such pain again? This kind of injury, this kind of pain, boil once, then lose life once.


    Speaking of pain, she couldn''t help thinking of the fifth day of the ninth day.


    The information brought by Guang''an Hou on that day was too shocking. Although there was no evidence, Guang''an Hou never lied and did not show evidence, just for the sake of the Empress Dowager''s heart. Then the king broke out such a scandal, and the face of the whole royal family disappeared. At present, the crown prince of NATO Ju state and his crown princess are said to be recuperating at the Marquis of Guang''an in Kyoto. It''s like the parties and witnesses of this joke are still pestering under their noses, making the whole new year of the not cool royal family look like a joke stripped of clothes for people to watch, completely missing the joy and joy of the Spring Festival in previous years. The popular version is even more hateful. Although she didn''t say it, she has refused visitors with illness for more than two months. As the supreme authority of the royal family, the queen mother can imagine the pressure she bears. She often wakes up in the middle of the night and can''t sleep anymore.


    She also knew that the last straw was Chen Muzhi, the former supervisor who served the former king. Most of the eunuchs in the palace have no surname, only the nickname given by the Lord. Chen Muzhi, formerly known as the son of wood, has served the former king for more than 20 years. The former king gave him the surname Chen a few years before his death to feel his thirty years of loyalty.


    On the sixth day of the lunar new year, the Empress Dowager had a headache in the morning. After the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor, she asked her to quietly inquire about the whereabouts of Chen Muzhi. After the death of the first king, most of the maids and eunuchs who had served were scattered. Unexpectedly, very few people knew the whereabouts of Chen Muzhi. The disciple Fei Zhichen went to the hall the second time before he knew that he would die.


    The Empress Dowager learned that Zhaocai did some hard cleaning work in the five punishment division. She took pity on him, so she asked Zhaocai to work in Ci''an palace. In a few days, Zhao Cai knelt in front of the Empress Dowager with a small cloth bag in his hands. He said it was the relic given to him by Chen Muzhi on the day he threw himself into the lake. When he moved a few days ago, he accidentally scratched the small cloth bag and found the secret.


    She didn''t dare to look carefully, but carefully presented it to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager fainted at a glance.


    Until now, she still remembers the objects in the cloth bag.


    At this time, the Empress Dowager on the bed moved, and there was a turbid cough and wheeze in her throat. Mammy Su quickly poured a cup of warm water, went forward to carefully lift the empress dowager, and put the water close to her mouth.


    After drinking the water, the Empress Dowager was so angry that she stretched out a thin hand, grabbed mother Su''s hand and said, "little su''er, what time is it?"


    Mother Su looked at the sky and said, "it''s about Shenshi. You''ve slept for about an hour and a half after lunch. If you don''t want to lean, get up and go? In this way, we can have some appetite for dinner and eat more. "


    The Empress Dowager straightened up and mammy Su quickly put on her coat.


    Mammy Su said, "beauty Wang asked someone to send some snacks before. She said that the Empress Dowager had a poor appetite. She specially asked someone to go to Xiyan Yangsheng hall and asked the shopkeeper for an appetizer. In addition, the medicine prescribed by Doctor Wu has been fried and is simmering on the stove. Why don''t you warm your stomach with some yam porridge first? "


    The Empress Dowager slowly got up and stretched her muscles and bones. "I''m old. I can''t get up when I lie down. I''m really afraid I can''t get up even if I sleep one day."


    Mother Su said "bah bah" twice, "the Empress Dowager has a long life, and the blessings of her children and grandchildren have just begun to be enjoyed. Where can she say such frustrating words?"


    The Empress Dowager said, "all day long, how can people really be safe? I''d better take the medicine and drink it first. Before I wake up all over, I''ll pour the bitter thing down first. Although the effect may not be very good, I always ask for peace of mind after drinking. "


    "Promise." Mammy Su went to the door and gently gave an order, then came back and continued, "the medicine used by the imperial doctor in the palace has always been safe and mild. It doesn''t necessarily have the effect of tiger and wolf, but it is the most beneficial to your Phoenix body. Take your time. "


    The little maid came in with a food box and put the medicine on the table. The Empress Dowager said, "it''s a good thing to adjust slowly. I feel bitter in my mouth before I see the black medicine soup."


    Mother Su smiled and said to the little maid in waiting, "hong''er, doesn''t it mean that beauty Wang has sent snacks? What''s the pattern? Does it have a sweet taste? "


    Hong''er lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes. "The dessert is still in the hands of beauty Wang. The maidservant doesn''t know."


    Mother Su said strangely, "didn''t you say it was delivered in three minutes? Why is it still in the hands of beauty Wang? "


    Hong''er replied, "it was made by beauty Wang herself in the kitchen. When she delivered it, she heard that the Empress Dowager had not got up yet, so she put the dessert on the pot and steamed it all the time. She said that there was some stress on the way to eat the dessert. When the Empress Dowager woke up, she would come and tell the Empress Dowager in detail." In their opinion, the beauty Wang is too hypocritical. A box of snacks is ready. It''s really unnecessary to ask for credit face to face. Will there be palace maids in Ci''an palace who want to take her credit? Then pay attention to the eating method. It will be clear after saying it several times.


    Mother Su looked at the Empress Dowager and saw her nodding slightly. She smiled and said, "are you so particular? Well, ask her to come over after a cup of tea. "


    "Promise!" Hong''er bowed and withdrew.


    The Empress Dowager took the mouthwash from Mammy su. After mouthwash, she sat at the table, looked at the medicine juice and frowned. Mother Su scooped out a spoonful of medicine juice and blew it around her mouth. She smiled and said, "this beauty Wang is really intentional. She sends sheep''s milk every morning and some preserved fruit snacks every afternoon, regardless of her body that has only been a few months."


    "She has a heart. What did you just say about the Yangshengtang? "


    Mother Su handed the medicine bowl to the empress dowager, "madam, you can eat it. It seems to be called Xiyan Yangsheng hall. I heard that it was also made by the strange girl Zhuo Xi. I don''t know what kind of strange shop it is. "


    "It''s better to ask. This Zhuo Xi, I wonder if she found her husband in Liangzhou? "


    Mother Su burst out laughing, "why do you have fun with me, madam? Lord Guang''an has sent a peace letter before. I guess I''ve connected with her now. "


    The Empress Dowager frowned and drank the medicine in one breath. Then she took out her handkerchief and pressed the corners of her mouth. "This Jing Yuan is completely different from tui''er. How can she be so stubborn about men and women? I said I didn''t want to be wronged when I had an engagement. Now I have a sweetheart, and I don''t see any guilt for my original fiancee. Hum, don''t you want someone you like? Now we have the right one. Although he came early and asked for an order, he still said that the time has not come. AI Jia really can''t understand it. "


    Mother Su said with a smile, "maybe what he wants is to be happy with each other. He doesn''t want to marry forcibly. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Miss Zhuo Xi looks like a good girl and will be able to be filial to you in the future. "


    The Empress Dowager stopped to have a rest, nodded and continued, "although the queen has just added huan''er, the mourning family always hopes that their brothers can open more branches and leaves. If there is good news from Jingyuan as soon as possible, the AI family will finally be able to live up to sister Ru. "


    Seeing that she had finished drinking the medicine, Mammy Su held her mouthwash again. "Although Princess Xianru had a salvation for you in those years, you have always regarded the Marquis of Guang''an as out and quietly given him such a decree for so many years. It''s time to repay this kindness. Don''t worry about it all the time."


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "sister Ru is a rare kind-hearted person in the palace. If it weren''t for her, how could the mourning family be today? Even tui''er can''t get on the treasure. It''s a pity. If she is alive, AI Jia can still be with her... "


    Mother Su wanted to persuade a few more words, so she heard the voice of hong''er outside, "report to the empress dowager, beauty Wang."


    The Empress Dowager nodded, and mammy Su opened the door and welcomed beauty Wang.


    Wang Meilian moves gently, followed by Ruoxue. They knelt down and gave the Empress Dowager a salute. "Congratulations, Empress Dowager."


    The Empress Dowager has sat on the throne with a smile on her face, "get up quickly. They all said that you are heavy and come to salute every day, but don''t be tired out of the little jinsun of the mourning family."


    Beauty Wang got up and replied respectfully, "go back to the Empress Dowager. The ceremony must not be abolished. When I first arrived at the palace, I didn''t have time to learn anything. I was really terrified. I was about to find a chance to learn rules. Don''t dislike it. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled and said to mammy Su, "look at this small mouth. Let the mourners not dislike her courtesy. Oh, which pregnant palace woman abides by the etiquette like this? "


    Mother Su smiled and echoed, "isn''t it?"


    Beauty Wang motioned ruoshue to take out the snacks in the food box and put them on the small round table in the middle of the hall. Mother Su came and brought the dessert to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager looked at the round, white and fat steamed buns with three red dots on them, like a smiling face¡° Such a snack is worth waiting for two hours? " At ordinary times, the dining room often sends this small steamed bread. The Empress Dowager usually feels too dry, so she has no interest. She is a little disappointed.


    Beauty Wang hurriedly said, "empress dowager, don''t look at it ordinary, but there is heaven and earth in it." She came forward, took one, carefully broke it off and presented it to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager was surprised to see that there was a yellow soft glutinous filling inside. "Oh, can you wrap the filling inside this small steamed bread?"


    Mother Su also said, "yes, aren''t they always solid?" She took silver chopsticks and tried one first.

 Chapter 119

    Beauty Wang stepped back and dropped her hand and replied, "to the empress dowager, this snack is called milk yellow bag. I learned it from the shopkeeper of Xiyan Yangsheng hall. The stuffing inside was mixed with milk, honey and egg yolk. I had been steaming it in the pot to make it soft. Try it, Empress Dowager. It''s soft but not dry, smooth but not greasy. "


    When the Empress Dowager saw mammy Su nodding, she took one of her chopsticks and sent it to the entrance. Sure enough, it was sweet, soft and waxy.


    She nodded. "You have a heart. You just said, "where is the beauty preserving hall?"


    Beauty Wang replied, "it''s a shop mainly engaged in women''s conditioning and beauty. It''s still made by Miss Zhuo Xi. Although the shop hasn''t officially opened yet, I have some personal friendship with the shopkeeper, so I sent someone to ask her for some dessert formula. Borrowed the Queen Mother''s kitchen and made it now. If the Empress Dowager likes it, I can often come and do some. "


    The Empress Dowager used it for several times. When she felt almost finished, she stopped her chopsticks and looked at Wang Meimei, "you send hot goat milk every morning. It is said that everyone in the whole palace knows it. It should be that no one dares to embarrass you again. Now, but what is there to ask for? "


    Beauty Wang flopped and knelt down, "Empress Dowager Shengming. Although the concubine saved her life by relying on her father and lived in chasing Feng palace, she was terrified at first for fear that her baby would encounter an accident. She really had the idea of getting the Empress Dowager''s protection. The Empress Dowager took pity on my bones and flesh. I am very grateful. Recently, I heard that the Empress Dowager''s daily medicine is bitter and her appetite is poor. My concubine often thinks about some appetizers, hoping to make the Empress Dowager comfortable. As long as I can eat a little, I will feel at ease. "


    "Get up first. Now that you are heavy, you can''t kneel easily. I''m just chatting with you. Little su''er, give me a seat. "


    After thanking her kindness, beauty Wang slowly stood up and gently sat on the small embroidered stool moved by mother su.


    "By the way, when did you come to make this dessert today? Why don''t you wake up the mourners when you''re ready? "


    "I came here at a quarter past noon. I was thinking of doing it for an hour. You just got up and could have a warm bite. I also think the filling of this milk yellow bag is sweet, just like the medicine you have drunk. I want to ask the Empress Dowager for permission. The recipe I got from shopkeeper Ke min is more than this dessert. I want to come and make it for you every day from tomorrow. Are you sure? "


    The Empress Dowager smiled again, "look, look, why didn''t you think your little mouth was so likable before! Obviously, he took pains to cook food for the mourning family and asked for the permission of the mourning family. Alas, I don''t want to see your exquisite kindness until today after so many years. "


    Wang Jialin''s eyes turned red when she mentioned this. "Empress dowager, it''s Jialin who has hurt you and your father in recent years. Jialin is now fully awake. She just wants to be filial to the empress dowager, her father and her aunt. Jialin doesn''t want to rise step by step inside the palace wall. She just wants her baby to grow up along the tunnel, her concubine to accompany the empress dowager, and her father and aunt''s mother to be safe and healthy outside the palace. Jialin can complete her life. When she goes underground after death, she also has the face to atone for her dead mother. "


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "although your mother is not born to AI family, she made friends with AI family before she died. It''s a pity that she died early. A few years ago, your longing for yuan''er was clear to AI family. AI family made your engagement with him in front of the former king. At first, the king disagreed because of his generation, but when did the royal marriage worry about generation? But your infatuation finally moved the AI family and the former king. No, you two were never meant to be. AI family knows that you have no choice but to enter the palace. Now you have such a position, which your father bought with his last military power. AI family was worried that you were young and willful, and you were depressed in the palace. So I wanted to help you. Now I see that you are so sensible, and I''m really happy for your father. Well, it''s difficult for foreign ministers to enter the palace. With the special permission of the AI family, you can go home to save your relatives. You can tell the AI family when you''re ready. "


    Wang Jialin was overjoyed and had to kneel down. In the eyes of the empress dowager, she deeply blessed her body and said, "thank the Empress Dowager!" She hesitated and said, "empress dowager, if the medicine is too bitter every day, stop it. Lin''er will come and cook food for you every day in the future. " The tone was a little naughty.


    The Empress Dowager smiled and said to mother Su, "look, it''s really a child! She is also a child! Only people have always advised people not to take bitter medicine? What a silly boy! "


    Mother Su also said, "isn''t it? The child is still waiting for you to bring sweet snacks after you drink the medicine! If you don''t drink this bitter medicine, how can her dessert be sweet? "


    "Ha ha... Lin''er, don''t be too tired. If you have anything to do in the future, you''d better send those slaves." The Empress Dowager is smiling and comfortable.


    Wang Jialin waited for her "lin''er" for a long time. Her eyes turned red again and choked, "it''s nothing tired. Lin''er just moved her mouth and stared at them. Just when you woke up, lin''er was still taking a nap in the small hall next to the kitchen. "


    "Hehe, if you feel unwell, you can come and cook some snacks for AI family at any time. But remember, the body matters. "


    "Yes, thank the Empress Dowager." She was blessed again.


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    Outside the Ci''an palace, Wang Jialin slowly walked back with Ruoxue''s hand, and saw a soft sedan coming from a distance. Ruoshue looked and whispered, "it seems to be Mrs. Qin''s soft sedan chair." It''s about to go back to her Shun''an palace and pass here.


    "Yes." Wang Jialin gently answered, took her back to the side of the road, bowed down, and dared not go out.


    The corner of the eye looked at the neat row of blue cloth shoes about to pass, but heard the people in the sedan gently drink, "go back."


    So the row of cloth shoes came back and stopped in front of them.


    Mrs. Qin smiled and said, "Oh, who is this? Isn''t it our new sister, beauty Wang? "


    Beauty Wang raised her face slightly in embarrassment and bowed down deeply. "I''ve seen Mrs. Qin."


    Mrs. Qin tilted her head and said with a smile, "beauty Wang is polite. Now the ground is still cold. If the Dragon seed in your belly is frozen, my wife can''t afford it. Why don''t you get up quickly?"


    Beauty Wang got up slowly, and ruoshue followed.


    Mrs. Qin leaned against the back of the chair on the sedan chair, stretched out her fingers, took photos under the sunset, and said leisurely, "look at your posture, but you just came back from the Empress Dowager''s Ci''an palace?"


    Beauty Wang bowed her head and replied, "yes."


    Mrs. Qin snorted coldly, "look at your flattery. After seducing the king, she seduced the Empress Dowager to protect you. Why, are you going to seduce the master of the palace? "


    Beauty Wang was cold and sweaty. That was her worst thing to look back on. Fu Shen said, "I dare not. Now I dare not hinder the eyes of all empresses. I got the favor of the queen. I don''t need to go to greet you a few days ago. Filial piety to the Empress Dowager is the last wish of my mother. I dare not forget it all day. I just want my mother''s underground knowledge to protect my baby from going down the tunnel safely. I don''t want anything else. "


    "Hum, you''d better remember what you said today."


    Beauty Wang bowed her head and replied, "bitch, remember my sister''s instruction." Then she looked up at Mrs. Qin, but she saw that Mrs. Qin''s face had changed greatly, pointed to her and said, "you, you..."


    Wang Meimei didn''t know what had happened. Mrs. Qin had told her maid, "Xiao Qi! Go! "


    Xiao Qi jumped over from one side, reached out and pulled a hairpin from beauty Wang''s head, looked carefully and presented it to Mrs. Qin, "madam, it''s the peony feifeng hairpin."


    Mrs. Qin took a look and angrily scolded, "bold King beauty! I stole my gold hairpin and dared to wear it in a dignified manner! It''s shameless! "


    Beauty Wang was stunned. "Madam Qin, the Empress Dowager sent someone to reward the concubine the day before yesterday. How did you steal it?"


    Mrs. Qin''s chest fluctuated up and down, "unexpectedly, you snake and scorpion beauty can not only steal people, but also steal things! You said the Empress Dowager gave it, didn''t you? Let''s go to the Empress Dowager to comment! "


    Beauty Wang closed her eyes. "The Empress Dowager is not feeling well at the moment. When she first came out, she saw her lying down again. Don''t worry about such a small matter."


    "Hum, you''re scared when you hear the Empress Dowager ask for confirmation, aren''t you?! This hairpin was given to me by the king last year. My wife wears it every day. How can she look out of sight? "


    Wang Mei said, "madam, don''t worry. Every object in the palace has access records, and valuables also have picture records to avoid confusion. This hairpin was indeed given by the Empress Dowager the day before yesterday. It should be recorded in the inner house. When the king gave it to you that day, the inner house should also have picture records. Maybe this hairpin as like as two peas in two is unknown. If so, wouldn''t it be bad for the Empress Dowager and his wife to make trouble in front of the Empress Dowager? Please check it out. "


    Mrs. Qin''s anger was a little flat. "In that case, Xiao Qi, go to find the chief manager Huang of the inner house and check it carefully!"


    Xiao Qi answered the promise and ran away.


    When madam Qin''s body is not safe in the palace, you will not be able to move here again It was a discussion, but the tone was indisputable.


    Wang Jialin frowned and subconsciously touched her stomach.


    Ruoshielala Wang''s sleeves, "beauty, you''ve been busy all day. If you don''t go back and have a rest, I''m afraid..."


    Wang Meimei also smiled and said to Mrs. Qin, "madam, my concubine has been out for a long time and is a little tired. I''m afraid the internal government can''t do it in a moment. Why don''t you come to Shun''an Palace tomorrow? If it is really a concubine who has offended her mother, she must plead guilty and let her wife punish her. "


    Mrs. Qin said angrily, "so good! My wife will wait and see how you explain tomorrow! "


    "No! I''d like to see you off, madam. It''s easy for you to leave. "


    "Go!"

 Chapter 120

    Wang Meimei returned to Zhuifeng palace and called the maid who presented the gift to the Empress Dowager that day. She asked about the situation carefully. The maid said that the inner house directly brought the gift box to the Empress Dowager for oral instructions, not from the palace people in the Empress Dowager''s palace. Wang Jialin recalled the gift list sung one by one by the eunuchs who sent the Empress Dowager''s oral instructions that day. There were no mistakes and omissions, so she put her heart down and went to Shun''an palace to hear the news tomorrow.


    Without a word, she didn''t care how the ugly rumors about her stealing jewelry were spread outside. She only slept until dawn, got up and hurriedly heated the goat''s milk and sent it to Ci''an palace. When I met the empress dowager, I only talked about some trivial things. I introduced in detail the business project and function principle of the Xiyan Yangsheng hall, which made the Empress Dowager yearn.


    When she wanted to leave and go back to the palace for breakfast, she was called by the Empress Dowager and asked, "I heard that Mrs. Qin embarrassed you yesterday?"


    She turned back and replied respectfully, "no, I just asked two more questions when I saw that the hairpin on my concubine''s head was very similar to the one she lost."


    "Oh? I didn''t embarrass you? "


    "No, it will come out today. Please be relieved."


    "That''s good. The mourners won''t keep you either. Kneel down and go back to eat. "


    "Promise!"


    After she left, the Empress Dowager slowly sipped the hot goat''s milk and said to mother Su, "the child is more and more stable. He won''t ask AI Jia about such a thing. He will solve it himself?"


    Mother Su smiled, "isn''t it? I heard yesterday that Mrs. Qin wanted to go to Ci''an palace to ask for a statement, but it was beauty Wang who stopped her for fear of worrying about your peace. "


    "The child is really." The Empress Dowager''s heart is warm. Although she has two sons and a daughter under her knee, she rarely feels the meticulous filial piety and care of the younger generation to the elders. Even her daughter-in-law and queen only routinely come to greet and send some things. She usually doesn''t really think of her.


    "But I don''t think so. I can see from the records of the inner house. Looking at Mrs. Qin''s posture, I''m afraid it''s really a trick. It doesn''t seem to be deliberately looking for trouble. "


    "Since the birth that year, Mrs. Qin has always been mean in words when she sees those who are lower than her. It''s really not bad hearted. What''s the news of Shun''an Palace today? "


    Mother Su shook her head. "It''s still early. I''m afraid it''s not so fast."


    "You''d better let someone watch. If there''s anything wrong, report to the mourning family first."


    "Promise."


    Hong''er came in and said, "tell the empress dowager, the queen came to say hello to you."


    The Empress Dowager asked, "Xiao su''er, are you confused? Doesn''t that mean they won''t have to come to greet you in the near future? "


    Mother Su thought for a moment, "although Doctor Wu would come to ask for Ping''an pulse every day, there was always a big consultation every seven days. Today happens to be the day of the big consultation. May I come to the auscultation? "


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "please invite her in."


    "Promise."


    After a while, the queen sun Yao came in, "good night, Empress Dowager."


    "Get up. Give me a seat. "


    Sun Yao sat down and asked with concern, "how is your mother recently?"


    "Ai Jia''s body is getting heavier and heavier recently. I fall asleep for seven or eight hours a day, so I''m afraid you''ll be empty if you don''t have to say hello. Why did you come again today? "


    Sun Yao replied, "today, the imperial medical department held a consultation. My concubine came to listen to the auscultation. In the past two months, my mother''s spirit has not been good. My concubine understood the situation. First, she can be at ease. Second, she can report to the king to make him feel at ease."


    The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "you have a heart."


    Sun Yao motioned Su Mei to present a box, "empress mother, this is a millennium ginseng. It is said that it was found in the extremely cold place of Beidi, which is of great benefit to the body. However, it will take a while to decide whether or not to use it and how to use it. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "well, the queen always thinks more safely. But the AI family misses huan''er. Is he always good? "


    Sun Yao said with a smile, "it happened that he was also a little hot headed these two days. My concubine took care of him last night. The imperial doctor also tossed the chicken flying and the dog jumping in the summer. The heat faded only in the morning. Otherwise, I must have brought him over to have a look at my grandmother. "


    "Child, it''s normal to have a hot or cold, just pay more attention to it. I''m very sick. I''d better not see it. I''m afraid I''ll give him the disease. "


    "It''s huan''er''s good fortune that her mother can get her grandmother''s love and care. When he gets better, I will let the nursing mother hold him and play. "


    "Speaking of, is the palace election in March approaching? Has the date chosen been decided? "


    Speaking of this, sun Yao really broke her silver teeth and swallowed it in her stomach. Since Luo Yuan was inexplicably poisoned at Wang Mei''s birthday banquet last time, the Empress Dowager asked her to give half of her right to choose to see to Mrs. Qin. Now half of the candidates are screened by Mrs. Qin, so she also replied, "tell the empress dowager, the candidates in her concubine''s hands have been screened, The other half is still with Mrs. Qin. Yesterday, my concubine discussed with her about the day of the election. She said that she often felt dizzy recently. She was afraid that she might miss the good family members collected by the inner government from all over the country, and wanted to see them in a few days. If you are still dizzy when you choose to see it, you will be sorry not only for those good family children, but also for the king. "


    As soon as the Empress Dowager heard it, she was reasonable and pondered, "well, there is still more than half of this March, so she will slowly select some good ones. There have been no new people in the palace for several years. The mourning family is still waiting to hold more grandchildren. "


    Sun Yao bit her teeth again. She originally wanted to take this opportunity to take back that half of the power from Mrs. Qin. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager had such an attitude. She had to bear it and bowed her head and replied, "promise."


    Over there, Wang Jialin went back to the palace for breakfast and took a break. She didn''t dare to delay any more. Accompanied by Ruoxue, she slowly walked to Shun''an palace. When she arrived, she knew that Mrs. Qin went to ask the queen for an. Before she returned, she waited in the side hall of Shun''an palace. It was not until near noon that I heard from the palace women''s newspaper that Mrs. Qin had come back and asked her to move to the main hall. Ruoshue was left in the side hall waiting.


    She went to YingYing and said, "I''ve seen Mrs. Qin."


    "You are a Promise Keeper. Get up. " Hum, Mrs. Qin is still cold.


    Beauty Wang stood up and replied, "madam, how dare a concubine break her promise? I just don''t know. Has the verification result come out from the inner house? "


    Mrs. Qin turned her head and asked her maid, "Xiao Qi, can manager Huang send someone over?"


    Xiao Qi hurriedly came forward and replied, "yes, manager Huang just sent someone the reward records and drawings." She presented the records and drawings to Mrs. Qin.


    Mrs. Qin looked at the drawing carefully and took out the peony feifeng hairpin taken from Wang Jialin''s head yesterday.


    After reading it for a long time, he suddenly became angry, threw the hairpin and pattern in front of Wang Jialin, and angrily scolded, "you bitch, what else do you have to say?"


    Wang Jialin was puzzled. Xiao Qi ran to pick up the drawing and hairpin and stuffed it into her hand. At the same time, he quickly whispered, "go and give it to the Empress Dowager."


    Wang Jialin picked up the drawing and carefully compared it with the hairpin. She also changed her face. "Madam, I really don''t understand. From the pattern, although the two hairpins are similar, there is no possibility of taking them wrong. "


    Mrs. Qin was furious, "hum! You fox! Dare not deny it! No, Mrs. Ben wants to argue with you in front of the Empress Dowager! " She stood up quickly, but immediately held the handrail with one hand and her forehead with the other, "Oh, how did I turn around for a while?" Xiao Qi hurried forward, "madam, isn''t it your head disease again?"


    Mrs. Qin hummed and sat back in her seat. Xiao Qi turned to Wang Jialin and said, "beauty Wang, please be kind and admit your mistake to my wife. She can''t stand to be angry. Her anger is surging up, and she''ll have a headache for many days. "


    Wang Jialin didn''t know what was going on, but she was blessed, "madam, don''t worry. I really don''t understand this. Please take a break. I''ll ask the Empress Dowager for advice. Maybe she can know the whole story. "


    Mrs. Qin snorted, waved her hand and said, "go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Mrs. Ben is waiting here. "


    Wang Jialin left with the drawing hairpin, full of suspicion.


    If snow accompanied her, I don''t know what the situation is. She wanted to ask several times. Seeing her master''s face meditating, she stopped again.


    Wang Jialin suddenly whispered, "Ruo Xue, is Xiao Qi the old man in the original palace?"


    Ruoshue thought about it and said, "it doesn''t seem to be. She has been serving Mrs. Qin when she was in the prince''s residence."


    Wang Jialin nodded and stepped up to Ci''an palace.


    Mother Su was coming back from the kitchen to arrange meals. She met her outside. She couldn''t bear to see her little face flushed by the wind. She led her to the side hall and said, "beauty, although it''s March, the wind is still cold. You have to worry about your body."


    Wang Jialin said, "mother Xie Su cares. I heard shopkeeper Ke say, "this woman can''t be too delicate. If she is pregnant, she has to walk more. The pain will be alleviated a lot during childbirth."


    "Where did you come from? Did you come this time or did you come to cook for the Empress Dowager? It''s not afternoon yet. "


    Wang Jialin shook her head, "no, it''s about the hairpin yesterday. There''s something strange, so she wants to consult the Empress Dowager one or two."


    Mammy Su said, "the Empress Dowager has been quite sleepy recently. Just after breakfast, she went to bed again after consultation with the Pacific hospital. I''m afraid it''s inconvenient. What''s strange? Can you tell the old slave? "


    Wang Jialin sat down in the chair, took out the drawing and checked it with the hairpin in her hand. "You see, compared with the drawings recorded in the inner house, this hairpin is indeed the peony feifeng hairpin given to Mrs. Qin by the crown prince the year before last. But two days ago, the hairpin concubine was indeed obtained from the items given by the Empress Dowager''s oral instructions in the inner house, but the appearance of the hairpin was not consistent with the pattern of bird holding peony on the drawing. What''s going on? "


    Mother Su also sat down and carefully compared the two pictures. "The two hairpins are indeed very similar in style, but the difference is still obvious. One is Phoenix, the other is bird, and the petal style of peony is also different. Are you sure this one is the one she dialed from your head yesterday? "


    Wang Jialin hesitated. "It should be. When I received the reward, I saw this hairpin. The flying phoenix looked like a bird and the pattern was thin, so I didn''t look carefully. When wearing it, ruoshue took it out of the box and inserted it directly. "


    Ruoshue quickly knelt down and replied, "when the maidservant took it out, she also looked at it. She was still hesitant that the hairpin looked like a Phoenix. The beautiful lady wore it, I''m afraid it exceeded the system, but I think it was given by the Empress Dowager. It doesn''t hurt. That''s why I put on the hairpin for the beauty. "


    Mother Su nodded, "well, I''m afraid someone deliberately changed the bird''s peony title into a peony flying phoenix hairpin, which deliberately caused you to fight."

 Chapter 121

    Wang Jialin hesitated again, "but speaking, Mrs. Qin didn''t embarrass me too much except to be more strict in her words. By the way, Xiao Qi beside her whispered to my concubine. "


    Mother Su''s face became serious, and Wang Jialin whispered her words.


    Mother Su looked more and more dignified. "It seems that we have to wait until the Empress Dowager wakes up and report to her old man before making a decision."


    Wang Jialin nodded and sat in her chair thinking. Suddenly she straightened up and asked, "Mammy, if someone deliberately changed the hairpin and asked my concubine to come to Ci''an palace, would this person be Mrs. Qin? She did it on purpose? "


    Mother Su thought for a moment and nodded, "it''s not impossible."


    "If it were her, she must want to tell the Empress Dowager something. But why didn''t she just tell the Empress Dowager? "


    Mother Su smiled coldly, "I''m afraid she doesn''t dare to come to Ci''an palace!"


    "Why?" As soon as Wang Jialin finished asking, she covered her mouth. "It''s a concubine who trespassed. You shouldn''t inquire about such secrets. Mammy, don''t blame me. "


    Mother Su looked at her lovingly, "beauty Wang, the old slave has been accompanying the Empress Dowager for decades. People in this palace come to Ci''an palace. Apart from asking for peace every day and every new year''s festival, there are few people who sincerely accompany the Empress Dowager. Although there are many ways to express the word filial piety, according to the old slave, when people are old, the most difficult thing to spend is time, and the most difficult thing to master is life and death. You are willing to spend a lot of time making food and delivering sheep''s milk for her old man. The Empress Dowager kept it in her heart. The old slave also saw that although beauty Wang had come for the protection of the empress dowager, you treat her sincerely these days. "


    Wang Jialin lowered her head when she said, "it''s because lin''er was too ignorant before."


    "In this way, the old slave has nothing to hide from the beauty. This queen sun is the sequel of the prince''s survival. When Mrs. Qin was pregnant the year before last, she accompanied the newly married crown princess to ask the Empress Dowager for tea. But unexpectedly, when Mrs. Qin handed the tea to the crown princess, she somehow sprinkled new tea. The new tea that the bride presented to her mother-in-law was spilled, but it was a great sin. So the Empress Dowager punished her to kneel for half an hour. As a result, when she returned to the house, she heard that she had a miscarriage. She hated the Empress Dowager and never came to the Ci''an palace to ask for peace again. Fortunately, she was just a lady, and the Empress Dowager felt a little guilty about it, so she went with her. "


    "Does Mrs. Qin know how to sprinkle the new tea? Can''t the bride pick her hand on purpose? Didn''t the cause of the slippery tire be investigated in detail? "


    Mother Su was a little embarrassed. "After all, they were in the prince''s house and not in the palace, so it was difficult for the Empress Dowager to intervene."


    "What month was Mrs. Qin''s fetal image at that time?"


    Mother Su said, "it has been three months."


    "It is said that the fetal appearance in March has become more and more stable. You should not be able to slide after kneeling for half an hour. There must be other reasons. "


    "Now I see the beauty running around day by day, but it''s the same in my stomach. I think there''s another reason." Mother Su joked.


    Wang Jialin rarely threw a Jiao, "mammy laughed at me again. Earlier, Miss Zhuo Xi also said that I had a thick body and was tortured in the Fifth Division... "She suddenly stopped and said with an embarrassed smile," in that way, the fetus can still be saved. It''s really strong. "


    Mother Su said, "even so, you should pay more attention to ensure a white and fat son."


    Wang Jialin sighed, "I''d rather have a daughter."


    "Why?"


    "If you are a prince, you will inevitably get involved in the power dispute. Even if you don''t fight, you will naturally be regarded as a thorn in the eye. If you are a daughter, you can grow up happily."


    Mother Su nodded, "it''s such a reason."


    When she said these words, Wang Jialin kept looking at and looking at the hairpin carefully. Suddenly, she looked cold. She pulled the hairpin head and body with her hand and twisted them. She didn''t move. She had to pull on both sides. Ruo Xue rushed over, "Miss, you can''t destroy the Royal gifts, but you have to copy them all." She was so anxious that she forgot the name of the palace.


    Wang Jialin glanced at mammy Su and said, "nothing is more important than finding the truth." With that, she pulled hard. Sure enough, the hairpin was divided into two, and the pole was actually hollow. She repressed her excitement, carefully pinched the thing revealing a silk thread with her fingernails, and took out a look. It was a silk as thin as a cicada''s wing, on which a long paragraph of text was carefully written in small block letters.


    Wang Jialin didn''t dare to take a closer look and quickly presented it to mother Su, "I''d better ask the Empress Dowager to have a look later."


    Mother Su took a casual glance, but her face changed greatly. She looked carefully again, clenched the silk, thought for a long time, then slowly got up, knelt down on the ground, and knocked three times in the direction of the Empress Dowager''s bedroom. After lying on the ground for a long time, she was already in tears when she got up.


    Wang Jialin was shocked.


    Mother Su wiped her tears and took a look at Ruoxue. Wang Jialin understood and motioned Ruoxue to go out. Ruoshue quickly salutes and goes out and closes the door.


    Mammy Su knelt down again and kowtowed to Wang Jialin. Wang Jialin was shocked again and hurriedly helped her up, "Mammy, how can this make her? Please get up. "


    Mother Su said with tears, "it is said that the old slave should not read such confidential letters. The old slave has committed the capital crime of deceiving and not reporting. But this matter is very important. The Empress Dowager is seriously ill and can''t stand such a blow. You are so cautious every day. The old slave knows why. At this time, it is urgent to ask the beauty to save the Empress Dowager and her old man. "


    Wang Jialin exclaimed, "Mammy, what are you talking about? If this matter is related to the empress dowager, the king will decide for her. "


    Mother Su closed her eyes and shook her head. "If what she said on this silk is true, I''m afraid it has something to do with the king and queen. Now the Ci''an palace is like a sieve. I don''t know who is reliable. The old slave thinks about it. Only the beauty can give you a chance to deliver messages. "


    She handed the silk on her hand to Wang Meimei. Wang Meimei took it and read it carefully. Her face was also shocked and sad.


    She put down her silk, took mammy Su''s hand and said, "Mammy, you are right. Never let the Empress Dowager know about it. "


    Mother Su looked at her gratefully, "beauty, my mother''s body is in danger now. I''m afraid she can''t eat the kinds of food you made before. I don''t know if there can be another prescription to replace it?"


    Wang Jialin immediately thought, "lin''er understands. I don''t know where mother Su wants lin''er to send the news?"


    Mother Su bent her ears and said a name to her.


    Wang Jialin nodded.


    ¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­


    Since Wang Jialin exchanged information with mammy Su that day, the whole person has been in a tight state. She not only keeps an eye on her own small stove, but also often goes to the Empress Dowager''s small kitchen to occupy the kitchen for a long time in the name of making snacks and look at the ingredients from time to time.


    Only a few days later, the Empress Dowager cut down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and slept longer and longer every day. She thought she was looking for an opportunity to ask Mrs. Qin for advice, but since Mrs. Qin was dizzy that day, she had asked to see Mrs. Qin several times, which was rejected by Mrs. xiaoqiyi around her.


    So on this day, after a brief sober plea for grace from the empress dowager, she waited for her father, Lian Bo Wang Dayong, in the chasing Maple palace in the afternoon.


    On this side of the bead curtain, she saw her father coming in from the door and was about to salute and say hello. She couldn''t help rushing out, hugged him and knelt down. "Father, don''t do this. It''s killing your daughter!"


    Wang Dayong stretched a face, "the beautiful lady still got up and let her ministers finish the ceremony of kings and ministers."


    Wang Jialin burst into tears, "father, daughter, you have suffered! Sorry, father! " When she said these two words, she was already sobbing.


    Wang Dayong froze and his eyes slowly turned red. Finally, he picked up his daughter and asked her to sit down in one of the chairs. At the same time, he said, "mother, don''t do this. If you let people see it, you have to let people chew the root of your tongue."


    Wang Jialin circled his father''s arm and wiped his tears on his arm clothes. "Whoever saw it, you are my favorite father. I haven''t seen you for a long time. It''s easy to see one side and cry. Who can say anything."


    Wang Dayong sighed and sat down on the bench. "Lin''er, you are in a hurry to see your father with a letter, but what''s important?"


    "Dad, my daughter is like waking up from a dream after this. Before that, my daughter was too ignorant, which worried you. " She was still holding her father''s arm.


    Wang Dayong sighed lightly, "Daddy has seen the letter you sent before. If you can really wake up, live a good life, give birth to your baby safely and bring it up as a father, if you go underground in the future, you can also explain to your mother. "


    "Father, daughter wants to know, what did you use that day to exchange your daughter''s life and the life of the baby in your belly for the king?"


    Wang Dayong hesitated and said, "lin''er, you know, although he has been depressed for several years since your mother left, he still has the military power of the three places of Beicheng and a number of old headquarters in his hands. What can be exchanged with the king is naturally the military power of the three northern cities and the loyalty of the old Ministry. What my father asked for was only a small palace and a name in the southernmost part of the great palace. The king is the ruler. Naturally, we can see that this is indeed a good deal. Why did he refuse? "


    Wang Jialin stood up straight, "Dad, I''m sorry." In this exchange, my father lost his reliance for the rest of his life and his foundation for making achievements.


    Wang Dayong patted her on the shoulder. "Silly girl, you and Yao''er are the only two daughters in total. There is no son to inherit his father''s career. Sooner or later, his father''s military power will be handed over. It''s better to use them to protect you two. Dad can be at ease. "


    She stared into her father''s eyes and said, "but Dad, my daughter has been despised by the king and the people in the back palace. Besides, you know that it is not so easy for a child to be born safely in the deep palace courtyard. Since you have assured the king of my life and my child''s life, why don''t you directly take me home to live and give birth? "


    Wang Dayong stiffened and said with a smile, "after all, you are pregnant with the king''s bone and blood. Dad naturally hopes that your baby can have a decent Royal identity and get Wang Rongyin in the future."


    Wang Jialin closed her eyes, "no, father, your daughter''s life was on the line that day. Since you gave up all your military power, you naturally want to take your daughter home. The king refused, didn''t he? He has hated me so far, but he still wants to make me a beauty and pursue the maple palace. He doesn''t really want to let me live, but wants to imprison me in this palace as a hostage to tie down my father. At the same time, he can make me a target of the palace and hope to let his daughter accidentally fall into a conspiracy and die. He can be regarded as an explanation to his father. kill two birds with one stone. Is the daughter right? "


    Wang Dayong nervously looked up and down at his daughter. "The harem is full of tricks. Daughter, what grievance have you suffered?"


    Wang Jialin shook her head: "everything is fine, daughter. Father, tell me first, what does the king have in your hand? Are you not afraid that he will kill you? "


    Wang Dayong looked at his daughter in a daze and said with a bitter smile, "it''s really my daughter. In the past, your heart was all tied to that person. Dad only said that you were crazy about love. He never found you so smart. Dad was relieved. "


    Wang Jialin blushed and said angrily, "Dad! If the snow girl told you? "


    Wang Dayong nodded, "if snow is loyal to you and smart, Dad can rest assured that she is by your side."


    She reddened her eyes again. "Dad still won''t tell her daughter?"


    Wang Dayong shook his head, "daughter, you''d better not ask. As long as you are well, dad will bring this secret into the coffin. Although you have lost your freedom, your life is safe for the time being. Daughter, you should cultivate your body and mind, and let''s think about it in the long run until you have a child. "


    Wang Jialin was stunned and said, "Dad, you mean..."


    Wang Dayong tried to smile, "no, dad didn''t say anything. At present, you can only take one step at a time. You just need to remember and protect yourself. "


    She was surprised again. "Dad, do you know?"

 Chapter 122

    Wang Dayong looked in a certain direction along her eyes. When he looked back at his daughter, he shook his head with a little contempt.


    Wang Jialin reacted instantly. Her father was ready to stand idly by and watch the killing of each other in the depths of the palace.


    Wang Dayong stood up. "Dad already knows what you mean, but dad has nothing to do now. Well, Dad can rest assured that you are well. Foreign ministers can''t stay too long. Dad will leave now. "


    Wang Jialin also stood up and said hurriedly, "Dad, the Empress Dowager is as kind to her daughter as a mountain. If you don''t do it, can you tell your daughter that there is a cure for the Empress Dowager''s disease? "


    Wang Dayong sighed, "you still need to tie the bell to solve the bell."


    She said sadly, "the Empress Dowager is the supreme person in the world. Since that person dares to lay a poisonous hand, he wants to give up everything, how can he be willing to solve it?"


    "With this result, there must be a cause. Daughter, listen to your father''s advice. At present, your own body is still important. Don''t interfere with others. Since the king has promised his father to protect you, he will not embarrass you too much, nor will he let others embarrass you. Dad is going out of the palace now. Take care of everything. "


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Wang Jialin sat dejected in the inner room, and ruoshue brought a small plate of nuts.


    Ruoshue said, "uncle has gone back? Madam, I brought the daily fruit, and the maids and maidservants peeled it. What are you using now? "


    She looked at the orchid jacket embroidered on Ruoxue''s chest and suddenly asked, "is shopkeeper Ke''s baby almost a hundred days old? Did someone say that they would hold a grand hundred day banquet? "


    Ruoshue was startled. "Master, you have met shopkeeper nake twice. You are familiar with this in the name of Miss Zhuo Xi? I''m still thinking about bao''er''s hundred day banquet. You''re not safe in your stomach. Besides, how can a concubine who has been driven out of the house hold a grand hundred day banquet? "


    Wang Jialin twisted up a small fruit and said, "look at her heart. She estimated that she would greatly show her precious son to the public through the opening of Xi Yan Yangsheng hall, so that everyone in Kyoto would know it. In my opinion, she must have held her breath to make her rich merchant husband regret. "


    If the snow was stunned, some couldn''t keep up with the master''s idea, "master, it''s too late to see the master today. Do you want to make the cake on the Empress Dowager''s side?"


    She shook her head. "I told the Empress Dowager yesterday, but I won''t go today. However, I want to go to the palace and find the clothes before you go there. "


    Ruosheng knelt down, "master, you can''t sneak out of the palace again. Every time the slave and maidservant are worried. No one found out the last two times. It''s all luck. If anyone knows about it this time and report to the queen, then we... "


    Wang Jialin pulled ruoshue''s ear to her eyes and whispered, "don''t be afraid. Just go quietly to the Corner Gate East of the lumen to see if the dumb old eunuch is on duty. If so, it doesn''t hurt. "


    Ruoshue asked with flashing eyes, "why? Why do you always pick the dumb man out when he''s there? "


    Wang Jialin said with a smile, "because he is a dumb uncle."


    Ruoshue said with a mouthful, "although he is called dumb uncle, he is not really dumb. On the contrary, his ear power is still very good."


    Wang Jialin said, "since he is willing to be called dumb, he would rather be deaf and dumb. We really think he is deaf and dumb. Why not meet his wish once?"


    If the snow couldn''t think of such a reason, she summoned up her cheeks, but she couldn''t say a word any more. She had to go and get the little eunuch''s clothes for the master.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi and his party ran for seven days, changed their horses once a day, and finally arrived at Wulipo outside Kyoto on the afternoon of the seventh day.


    Seeing the gate from a distance, Jing Yuan drove the horse and stopped it. Then he got off the horse with a long sigh.


    Everyone in the back dismounted. Zi Ran came up and immediately took off his short riding clothes for him, put on a long member''s outer clothes, put on Fang Fang''s member''s outer hat and pasted two small moustaches. Unexpectedly, he turned into a businessman.


    Zhuo Xi was more troublesome. She took Xiao soul to the back of a big tree, put on a wide blouse with everyone on her back, and put on a short velvet black shawl. The hair style was also changed under Xiao soul. She combed a woman''s bun, inserted several vulgar red gold hairpins, painted a layer of powder on her face, and pressed a heavy lip line on her lips.


    After finishing, he went to Jingyuan and gave a little gift, "master, I''m ready."


    Jing Yuan looked at her carefully, stroking his moustache and shaking his head, "tut Tut, sir, now I know the real meaning of the word ''chaff'' in the world."


    Zhuo Xi stared, "will you urge me to go down before I pass the door? It''s just right. Now I can sell all my dowry and bride price. "


    He laughed, "that''s not enough. The wife of chaff doesn''t go down. Now all the family wealth of the little old man is in his wife''s hands. The wife can''t abandon the little old man, otherwise the little old man will become a lonely family with nothing. If the little old man becomes lonely, will you, you and you continue to follow the little old man? " He lit Zi Ran, Jian Yi and Xiao soul, who had also been dressed up, with the fan in his hand.


    The three of Zi ran quickly and solemnly swore, "Lord, the slave is the ghost of life and the ghost of death. It''s getting late. Let''s go to town early. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, took the long curtain hat on Xiao soul''s hand, put it on, held Xiao soul''s hand, pretended to be weak and walked towards the city gate.


    This was agreed by everyone early in the morning. If the foreign release generals return to Beijing without intention, they will kill their heads. Moreover, everything happens suddenly, and they have to be careful first. Besides, everyone was worried all the way, especially Jing Yuan, who was so anxious that he had bubbles in the corners of his mouth. Zhuo Xi pulled two sparks from the grass to remove the fire for him, otherwise he couldn''t eat any food all the way and suffered. Therefore, it is rare to joke here. After joking, you should be careful to enter the city.


    Several people successfully entered the city in the name of visiting relatives with the road guide made by Liangzhou Chengfu. After entering the city, he didn''t return to Hou''s house for the first time, but still borrowed several rooms in the inn in disguise.


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi dress up as husband and wife, naturally the same room. Zhuo Xi no longer pinched and generously entered the door, but stayed for a moment when she opened the door. In the middle of the room sat a young man in white, drinking tea in a pot.


    She took a look at Jing Yuan who came in after him. His old God was sitting down in front of the childe and picked up the teacup.


    Zhuo Xi was full of doubt. After closing the door, she came to them and magically found that the young man in white was Fengxin she hadn''t seen for a long time.


    She screamed excitedly and wanted to hold her. Seeing her sitting abdomen bulge slightly, Shengsheng held back, "Sister Feng, how is it you?!"


    "Crazy sister? Sister in law, who are you calling? "


    "Ha ha," Zhuo Xi touched her nose, and she had to adapt to this identity as soon as possible. "In that case, Jing Yuan called you xiner, and I asked you to call you xiner, too?"


    Feng Xin nodded and told them what was most important. "According to the news from the palace, the situation in the palace was nothing different, except that last month, the Empress Dowager suddenly sent someone to find the former king''s eunuch. A little Eunuch in the fire burning room suddenly froze to death outside Shunzhi gate. Queen sun''s close maid accidentally seduced the king and was taken into Teng concubine. The Empress Dowager began to sleep since the 10th, I have to sleep for nearly ten hours every day, and there is nothing else. "


    Zhuo Xi is full of black lines. This messy and unintentional event seems to have nothing to do with it.


    Jing Yuan only focused on what he was most concerned about, "is there anything abnormal in the Empress Dowager''s palace?"


    "Be sleepy straws," "the palace eye liner did not find out the condition of the queen mother. From the pulse case of Tai Chi, it was only said that it was a loss of appetite and drowsy. But these two physical problems are too common. It''s better to give her a pulse. I''m too heavy to fly now. Please be wise. "


    Jing Yuan looked at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. "Xianggong, you know, I can''t feel the pulse."


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "your ability is great. You can cure a disease if you can''t feel your pulse."


    Zhuo Xi was embarrassed. "Don''t laugh at me! Although I can''t feel the pulse, I know the right medicine! As long as I know what the disease is, I can use it accurately. "


    Jing Yuan said at this time, "Xin''er, first diagnose your sister-in-law''s pulse." He took Zhuo Xi''s hand and pressed it in front of Feng Xin.


    Zhuo Xi was shocked and strongly wanted to retract his hand.


    Jing Yuan gave her a stern look, "Xi''er, don''t fool around."


    Zhuo Xi said, "I have nothing to do. Why should I take a pulse?"


    Jing Yuan closed his eyes, "Xi''er, in fact, I already knew."


    Zhuo Xi was shocked, pressed down her grief and stopped talking.


    Feng Xin looked at them with a smile and put her hand on her. Shaoqing smiled, "my sister-in-law rode all the way. She is really a heroine among women. But because of this, the pulse is chaotic, and I can''t see anything for the time being. According to my son, my sister-in-law should have a good night''s rest. How about I give you another diagnosis? "


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief and patted her. "In other words, how is your prince now?"


    Feng Xin nodded. "I can walk down the ground. Maybe I can leave in a few days. Then I''ll return the whole Hou house to you two."


    "It''s easy to say. When do you plan to return to Zisang country?"


    Feng Xin shook his head. "Don''t change the topic. The most important thing now is how to find a reliable person to sneak into the palace to take a look for the Empress Dowager."


    Jing Yuan was silent. Zhuo Xi saw his expression and knew that he was in the mood of self reproach and self suffering again. She had seen too many such expressions these days. It''s not easy to find a miracle doctor who can feel the pulse temporarily and a reliable person.


    She thought for a moment, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration and snapped her fingers. "By the way, someone can feel her pulse! And absolutely reliable! "


    The two men looked at her together.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    When it was dark, Zhuo Xi had dinner with Jing Yuan and changed into the clothes sent by Jing Yuan''s people. Jing Yuan dressed up as an imperial guard, while Zhuo Xi dressed up as a eunuch. In this regard, she turned her eyes. In ancient times, she had been a maid and a female official. Now she even pretended to be a eunuch. This life is really complete.


    Jing Yuan originally asked her to have a good sleep in the room. After running around and sleeping in the open for days, his body just drove away the little Gu. He was really worried. But Zhuo Xi insisted on seeing the Empress Dowager with her own eyes. The physical condition of the Empress Dowager is the most worrying thing for him at present. Moreover, although there was a kind of speculation in his mind before, it was not confirmed by the wind. Therefore, after Zhuo Xi insisted on going again and again, he thought about what happened. He was on his side, so he had to nod and agree.


    When they went out, they put on cloaks and got on the carriage prepared earlier. After entering the carriage, Zhuo Xi saw the Hong Quan. He was bound and stuffed with cloth strips and hid in the car. When he saw the two people coming up, he quickly got up and struggled.

 Chapter 123

    Zhuo Xi called softly, "Xiao soul, how is this? Mr. Hong Quan is our guest. How can we treat him like this? Give it to him! " She knew that only Xiao Hun had seen Hong Quan among the three dark guards, so she asked her to invite him over. Unexpectedly, it was in this way.


    Xiao soul appeared, prepared to take off the cloth strip in Hong Quan''s mouth, and asked seriously, "Sir, Miss Zhuo Xi is here now. Will you stop yelling? " He nodded hard. Xiao soul slowly took off the cloth strip, cut the rope on him with a dagger, and said, "madam, he didn''t believe you sent me to pick him up. He not only shouted, but also punched and kicked. His subordinates had to let him be wronged temporarily. If it were not for the sake of his being a weak scholar, I would take off one of his arms and one of his legs. "


    Hong quansong loosened his muscles and bones, hugged Zhuo Xi and said, "I''ve seen a girl. Previously, I only heard that Miss Zhuo Xi was far away in Liangzhou. Suddenly, this fierce woman said that the girl wanted to find me. I can''t believe it. "


    "Who did you say was fierce?"


    "Who caught me and flew out?"


    "You''re a big man flying around by a girl. Are you okay?"


    At this time, Zi Ran''s voice sounded outside, "Sir, my subordinates are willing to go with the Lord tonight."


    Jing Yuan coughed, "come in and talk." There are many people outside.


    The carriage was spacious, but it seemed too crowded for five people to come in. Originally, Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan were on one side, Hong Quan and Xiao soul were on the other side, separated by a few minutes. But as soon as Zi Ran came in, he had to deliberately squeeze between Hong Quan and Xiao soul, and said, "Sir, this gentleman has no martial arts. My subordinates thought about it for a while. It''s inevitable that something unexpected will happen. I''d better let my subordinates go to protect him personally. How about it?"


    Xiao soul listened to the horizontal eyebrow and said, "this is my job. What are you robbing?!"


    Zhuo Xi laughed and said deliberately, "why? Xiao soul''s martial arts are not weak, and his figure is thin and easy to hide. "


    Zi Ran glanced at Hong Quan and whispered, "Sir, after all, is a man. If you need to go to...," his voice became louder and louder. Finally, he straightened up his waist, "Zi Ran can also be accompanied with you. Don''t let anyone find him!"


    Xiao soul said again, "you think this is shopping! You have to go here and there! "


    Zi Ran stole a glance at Jing Yuan. Seeing that he had no objection, he looked forward to Zhuo Xi. "Madam, my subordinates know that it''s the royal palace courtyard. It''s very dangerous. If there''s really something urgent, my subordinates are more convenient after all."


    Zhuo Xi knew that he was worried about Xiao soul, and only smiled and said, "is it dangerous? It''s not dangerous. If it''s really dangerous, the Marquis can''t let me wait to enter the palace. "


    Zhuo Xi shook Jing''s hand and smiled.


    Zi Ran was worried again, so he had to touch Hong Quan, "Hey, do you want to be followed by me or her? My kung fu is much better than her. "


    Hong Quan didn''t have time to answer. Xiao soul split his hand. "Lord Ziran''s hand itched, didn''t he? I haven''t fought for a long time. I forgot the taste of being hit three times by me last time?"


    "I was distracted and attacked by you!" Zi Ran took the hand and blocked it. In an instant, they used both hands to make dozens of moves. Zhuo Xi helped his forehead. Looking at Hong Quan, who was sweating across the face, he stabbed Jing Yuan, who was watching the play. Jing Yuan coughed, "if so, let''s go. Xiao soul, just wait outside the palace to meet you. "


    Zhuo Xi saw that Xiao soul''s face was bad, so she said softly, "Xiao soul, you''ve been dusty all the way. You''re really tired, so you can have a rest. When I come back later, you will be busy. "


    Xiao soul''s face was better. He looked white, lifted the car curtain and went down.


    The carriage soon came to a stop. Zhuo Xi got off the bus first under the leadership of Jing Yuan. Zi Ran and Hong Quan came down after a while. After coming down, Zhuo Xi knew that they had changed eunuch clothes in the car. Hong Quan was weak and could see through his clothes. However, he was tall and dignified, so he looked a little nondescript.


    It was not until Jing Yuan knocked him on the head that he realized that his waist was too straight. Where could a slave walk like a general? He quickly bent down to make it less conspicuous.


    Several people walked along the dark palace wall for a long time. They vaguely heard two bird calls in front of them. When Zi Ran listened, he covered his hand in his mouth and whispered two cat calls. Zhuo Xi was happy again. After Jing Yuan held his hand twice, he held his laughter in his stomach.


    Leaning a little, Jing Yuan took Zhuo Xi and climbed up the palace wall and fell to the other side of the wall. A dark figure in the corner of the wall was short. It seemed to be saluting, but there was no sound. Jing Yuan raised his hand, and the man got up and made an invitation gesture. Zi Ran also jumped in quietly with Hong Quan. The party walked silently to the deep inside.


    It was late at night, and the palace gates were the next key. Only occasionally did the bodyguard and internal supervisor pass by.


    The party soon reached the side door of Ci''an palace. Mammy Su, who had long received the news, quietly opened a crack in the corner door and welcomed the four people in.


    When she got to the inner room, mother Su closed the door and asked for a big ceremony. Jing Yuan grabbed her arm and whispered, "Mammy, don''t be polite. We all care about the Empress Dowager. Please take us to see the Empress Dowager first."


    Mammy Su was full of tears, but she unloaded a big stone from her heart and took the four people directly to the Queen Mother''s bed.


    There was only a small lamp beside the bed, reflecting the vague side face of the old man in the tent. When she opened the tent, Zhuo Xi only looked at it and burst into tears. Her visibly sunken cheeks and wrinkled skin make her look ten years older than she did three months ago. She wiped her tears, gently took the old lady''s hand out of the quilt and motioned Hong Quan to come forward and feel her pulse.


    Jing Yuan was quiet and silent. Zhuo Xi knew he was sad and shook his hand.


    After a while, Hong Quan let go of the Empress Dowager''s wrist and looked puzzled. He whispered to Zhuo Xi, "girl, according to the pulse, the Empress Dowager''s pulse is vain, slow and urgent. It seems that she is evil outside and inside, stagnation of liver and spleen, exhaustion of spleen and stomach, and loss of transportation. There is little water and valley. She can neither ''rongmu'' to nourish the liver, nor ''Shengjin'' to nourish the lungs, nor can she nourish the nature in the future, fill the kidney essence and generate Qi and blood. Therefore, eat less and sleepy. But I don''t know the specific cause. I''m really ashamed. "


    "Look, smell and ask. You just feel your pulse. Naturally, you can''t judge. Mother Su, can you open the curtain? "


    Mother Su hesitated for a moment, opened the whole curtain, and Hong Quan pleaded guilty and approached the Empress Dowager with a small lamp.


    After a while, he put the small lamp back at the head of the bed.


    Jing Yuan saw that the people on the bed seemed to move. He said, "I''ll go to the outside first. Don''t disturb the Empress Dowager to rest."


    "Promise." Mother Su put down the curtain and went out with them. When she was about to close the door, she heard a hoarse voice, "wait a minute¡°


    Mother Su trembled all over her body, rushed to the curtain and knelt down, "damn the slave!"


    "Mammy, get up. Just say it here. AI Jia also wants to know what happened to AI Jia. " When the person in the account finished this sentence, a string of coughs overflowed from her throat.


    Jingyuan three also hurried to the account and knelt down to salute.


    The Empress Dowager stopped coughing, "yuan''er, you must not have received the king''s will to come back so soon. You have a heart. Get up first. "


    Jing Yuan led the three to get up and said easily, "empress mother, my son''s minister heard that you have been ill for more than a month, and things have changed in the south, so he led Xi''er and Dr. Hong to show you. Maybe he can get a prescription different from the imperial doctor and receive miraculous results. You should be a little relieved. It''s true that the hyacinth girl is pregnant and can''t enter the palace to ask for your pulse. Otherwise, I believe her medical skills will cure the disease¡°


    The Empress Dowager then said, "when you come back quietly, you naturally know that AI Jia''s body may not be in a few days. Let''s get this straight. The AI family has made the worst plan. The AI family can bear it. Girl Xi, come on. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a bitter smile, "empress dowager, it''s not that we don''t say it. We really don''t have any clue. We''re about to discuss it."


    Mother Su suddenly turned around and kowtowed heavily to Jing Yuan. It was the same sentence, "maidservant, damn it."


    Jing Yuan was startled. "What''s the matter with mother Su? Get up first and answer. "


    She took a deep breath, made up her mind, and took out a wrinkled yellow silk from her sleeve, "Lord, I''m damned. I should present it at the first time. Wang Meimei got this from Mrs. Qin seven days ago. It''s a matter of great importance. The maidservant made a good claim and didn''t give it to the Empress Dowager. Please save the Empress Dowager! The slave and maidservant died to atone for this sin. "


    The Empress Dowager coughed violently again. Mother Su hurried into the account to cheer her up.


    Jing Yuan took Huang Juan and looked at her carefully. The more she looked, her face became more and more heavy. Zhuo Xi wanted to get close to her. Jing Yuan pulled her up. "The handwriting is very small. Don''t hurt your eyes. Mother, don''t worry. It says on it that someone found that a palace maid''s stomach hurt and vomited blood. On her deathbed, she confessed that she had put poisonous insects into a basin to clean the Empress Dowager''s hands, which made you poisoned. "


    When she first heard this, the Empress Dowager suddenly grasped mammy Su''s hand, looked at mammy Su, closed her lips and said nothing. Mother Su nodded sadly, "madam, I''m afraid you''ll know. I''m even more depressed. I''m afraid I''ve hidden it from you. Please bring down the crime. "


    The Empress Dowager took a long time to breathe out and said slowly, "Mammy, you have taken care of me for decades. Don''t I know. Don''t worry, it''s just a bug. I can afford it. " Having heard of the black worm in the coffin of the former king, she had made countless conjectures in her heart. Now it''s just that the conjecture has been verified.


    The surprised water is not clean? Why can''t you see insects in it? "


    Mammy Su opened the tent and came out, "it''s the servant''s oversight. She didn''t find that the water was unclean."


    Jing Yuan said, "it is said that no one of the Zhao family has understood this Gu skill since Feng Zhao was captured. Does the Zhao family still have a daughter wandering outside?" What''s more, on their way back to the capital from Liangzhou, city Lord Zhao and Feng Zhao were reportedly killed by roving bandits. When he received the tip off, he just laughed it off.


    Zhuo Xi silently said the word "first king" to Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan was cold and nodded imperceptibly. Perhaps, those who dare to lay poison on the Supreme People of the royal family these two times must also be high-ranking people.


    Zhuo Xi coughed softly, nodded and asked, "Mammy, you will come together with the symptoms of the Empress Dowager recently. Let''s see what kind of insect it is."


    Mammy Su nodded, "yes, in the first two months, the Empress Dowager felt heavy and weak and sleepy every day. According to the diagnosis of the imperial doctor, she also said that the liver and spleen were depressed and tired, so she only used some Decoction for regulating qi and dispelling fire. In the past seven days, however, the fever continued from lunch to evening. After fever, they have palpitations, shortness of breath, dry throat and dry mouth. They can''t lie down. They can sleep only after Hai. Therefore, I am sleepy in the morning. I often have to sleep after breakfast. This is the prescription used by the imperial medical department during the consultation the day before yesterday. Please have a look, miss. " She said that she had taken a prescription in the cupboard and handed it to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi took it over and looked, "the effect of regulating qi and reducing fever should be good. It seems that the crux lies in the Gu insect."


    Jing Yuan suddenly asked, "mother Su, can the Empress Dowager have other symptoms? But it doesn''t matter. "


    Zhuo Xi understood what he meant. If she was just hot and sleepy, why did beauty Wang send the word "critically ill"?


    Mother Su said, "since the day of fever, the Empress Dowager''s cough has intensified and occasionally coughed up blood." She hesitated and said, "yesterday, the Empress Dowager said it was abdominal pain. The maid helped her to the clean room. After using it, she found that the Empress Dowager had blood in her stool."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized that in this era, once hemoptysis or hematochezia occurs, it may be a terminal disease. She pondered for a while and said with relief, "in fact, hemoptysis and hematochezia are sometimes just concurrent diseases, and they are not very dangerous. They can be relieved as long as the right medicine can be applied to the case. At present, the main problem is the various types of insects. However, the complexity of insects often lies in their species. If you can''t find its kind, you can''t suit the remedy to the case. "


    Hong Quan said at this time, "my Lord, when Xiao Min was visiting the doctor with his master in his early years, he had seen farmers who were prone to water bugs for generations because of their long years of work in the water. The initial symptoms are continuous fever, useless medicine stones, hemoptysis and hematochezia. After that, the abdomen was swollen like a drum, abdominal pain and dysentery. Xiao Min felt the pulse of the empress dowager, but it was similar to that at the beginning of the disease. Maybe it''s this kind of water bug. "


    Mother Su was overjoyed. "As Mr. said, the Empress Dowager''s abdomen has swollen, and sometimes the pain is unbearable."


    The Empress Dowager''s eyes brightened and asked, "if what Sir said is true, can this Gu be highly toxic?"


    Hong Quan replied respectfully, "this Gu is non-toxic. If it is not treated properly, it will only make people thin and have a big belly, and finally die."


    Jing Yuan immediately interrupted him, "don''t worry about your mother. Yuan''er will come up with a way to solve the Gu. "


    He turned to Hong Quan and asked, "so, sir, can there be a cure?"


    But Hong Quan was embarrassed. He hesitated and said, "grass, grass people dare not say."


    Jing Yuan said, "it doesn''t hurt. You say it."


    Hong Quanxian knelt down and knocked on his head. "Folk pest control uses arsenic." Moreover, it is not certain that arsenic can be cured. There are many cases of death due to improper use of arsenic, so this method dare not be used to kill him.


    Mammy Su was shocked, "empress dowager, you have a golden body. How can you use this poison?!"


    The Empress Dowager had got up and leaned on the bed. She said faintly, "if arsenic is the only solution, AI family can also try. It''s lucky to win and life to lose."


    Jing Yuan was also silent. He could understand it by attacking poison with poison, but how noble is the Empress Dowager? How can he bet on this game? It''s lucky to win a bet. Who can think it''s life to lose a bet. Besides, the man behind them may be waiting for them to make a fool of themselves. So he said softly, "mother, take it easy. This may not be the only solution. At present, we are not in a hurry. Let''s think about it slowly first. Don''t rush to medical treatment, but give others a handle. Besides, there is a hyacinth girl outside the palace. She is the most vicious person in the Jianghu. There is no poison in the world that he can''t solve. "


    The Empress Dowager said happily, "yes, you are worried about me. What else can I worry about? In my life, I have seen all the prosperous life and death. There are some truths that I can''t know. At present, I think I have no worries except your marriage. "


    Jing Yuan also said happily, "empress mother, she was in Liangzhou seven days ago. Her son''s ministers were going to worship heaven and earth with Xi''er."


    "What?!" The Empress Dowager pretended to be angry, "you unworthy son, why don''t you worship the high hall when you get married! I''m not dead yet! "


    Jing Yuan quickly acted like a spoiled girl and said, "stop your anger after your mother. My son''s ministers just want to give Xi''er a folk wedding. For a serious wedding, you''d better go back to Kyoto. At that time, you will have to work hard for your mother? Before the son minister, he gave Xi''er all his fields and cities as a bride price. In this grand wedding in Kyoto, you didn''t give him some subsidies. What will the son minister take to marry Xi''er? "


    The Empress Dowager was angry and angry. "This child, how can marriage be a trifle?! The AI family and the Wu family haven''t started najicai marriage yet. Did you send out all the bride price? How dare Xiao want to offer another bride price for you? It''s hateful! "


    Jing Yuan hurriedly sat on the machine in front of the bed and fell on the Empress Dowager''s lap. "Empress mother, you see, the hyacinth girls are already pregnant. The minister can''t wait to get married with Xi''er. Brother Wang doesn''t know when he can let go. "


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "you child is too disciplined. It is said that the mourning family has...... "under the pull of Jing Yuan, she suddenly stopped and looked at Zhuo Xi. She thought she would be shy, but she still looked thoughtful and didn''t seem to notice what they were talking about.


    The room was quiet for a moment. Zhuo Xi suddenly had a flash of light on her face and asked, "Mammy, can you take the Empress Dowager''s bedpan?"


    Mother Su hesitated, "girl, what do you want that filthy thing to do?"


    "Since it is a water insect, there must be insect eggs in it. We just need to hatch the eggs, don''t we know the types of insects? Mammy, it''s not too late. You''d better go and get it. "


    Zhuo Xi now basically understood that the person who used the Gu didn''t use the Gu developed by Zhao, but put the ready-made parasite eggs in the water to make the Empress Dowager touch them when she cleaned her hands. The insect eggs are transparent and small, and are not easy to be found in the water. After being stained in people''s hands, they enter the human body with food, and then hatch into adults slowly. In ancient times, diseases related to insects were called Gu. But now I don''t know what kind of parasite it is. If we can find the eggs and hatch the adults, we can know what kind of insect it is.


    Mother Su wept with joy and went to get the bedpan.


    When she brought it, Jing Yuan was dirty and opened his face slightly, but he saw Zhuo Xi looking seriously. He couldn''t help glancing at it, but he saw only an empty basin. He said strangely, "what''s good about the empty basin?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "the insect eggs are very small and transparent. They may stick to the basin wall." She turned to mammy Su, "Mammy, can I borrow a bag of coarse cloth? I''ll take this basin back for observation for a few days. If the Empress Dowager has any more convenience, please keep it and don''t wash it. Every few days, someone will come to see us. "


    Mammy Su nodded in response, found a rag, wrapped the basin and handed it to Hong Quan.


    Jing Yuan said, "empress mother, you have a good rest. Your children and ministers will leave first. You can rest assured and wait for our good news."


    The Empress Dowager said happily, "well, I''m waiting for your good news." When all three of them withdrew, the Empress Dowager lay down tired and closed her eyes.

 Chapter 125

    Different from Zhuo Xi''s expectation, the next day, she was received by Wu Xing''s carriage to the Wu family. When she came back from the palace that day, she was tired physically and mentally. She slept soundly all night. When she woke up and had breakfast with Jing Yuan, someone reported that the Wu family had come.


    When she first saw Wu Xing, she was surprised, "big brother?"


    Wu Xing saluted, "six younger sisters, since we have returned to Kyoto, how can we not live at home?"


    She looked at Jing Yuan and saw him nod to herself. She knew it was all his arrangement.


    But she still had to ask. Pulling his sleeve, she whispered, "do you arrange for me to go back to Wu''s house? When will you be back? What''s the plan? "


    Jing Yuan held back his impulse to embrace her. "Go back to Wu''s house and have a rest for a few days. I''ll send someone to pick you up."


    "When will someone pick me up?"


    "How about today next month?"


    "That..."


    "I''ll deal with it."


    "Hey..." before she finished asking, she was hugged out of the Inn by Xiao Li and got on the carriage of the Wu family.


    When she arrived at Wu''s house, she began to fall asleep and fell into a daze. In fact, she also knows her physical condition. She can''t have a good rest for days. In addition, the days on the way are small days. She is nervous and even her body is tired and weak. In addition, it will take at least three or five days for the eggs to hatch. I have to take this opportunity to have a good rest to help Jingyuan. Although Jing Yuan didn''t say anything, she knew his intention was to force her to rest for a few days. So she slept hard at Wu''s house for two days.


    Xiaoli followed her back to Wu''s house. Xiaoji and Xiaoguai had already returned to Sanxiang square. No one has bothered her these two days. Until noon on the third day, Zhuo Xi woke up slowly, stretched and got up. Xiao Li, who had been waiting outside, heard the sound and immediately brought a basin in to help her wash and change her clothes. He also told the girl outside to bring the lunch and set it up.


    Zhuo Xi sat at the table, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, looked at the dishes matched with meat and vegetables at a large table, and most of them were meals to replenish blood and Qi. She thought that she needed to replenish blood soon after her childhood. So he was in a good mood and ate it.


    Just after eating, mother Wu pulled up the curtain and came in, "I''ve seen your wife."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "Mom Wu is exempt from gifts. There are no outsiders here. Don''t be polite. Long time no see. Your waist and legs are better? " She remembered that she had brought her "task" to find Jingyuan before. Now she came back alone. She didn''t know how to face mother Wu. For fear of her embarrassment, she asked mother Wu about her rheumatism first, trying to change the topic and muddle through.


    Mother Wu got up and stood beside Zhuo Xi. She blessed her body slightly, and her eyes were wet. "I''ve relaxed a lot since I used your prescription last time. Thank you, madam. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said vaguely, "if you feel unwell again, I''ll give you a prescription for soaking your feet later. The effect of dehumidification and cold dispelling is very good."


    Mother Wu asked someone to remove the dishes from the table and said, "thank you, madam. The superior blood swallow ordered by the Marquis has just arrived at the house. It will be served later when the old slave stews it. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, somewhat embarrassed, "it''s hard for Hou ye to remember." I still remember her little days. I''m afraid no one knows?


    Mother Wu couldn''t help wiping her tears. "Hou Ye has always been very attentive to things related to his wife."


    Zhuo Xi thought about his care for himself these days, and her heart agreed, but it''s too much to see that mother Wu wiped her tears, isn''t it? She nodded and quickly changed the topic, "mother Wu, have you always lived in the Wu family?"


    Mother Wu shook her head. "No, the day after you left, the old slave and the servants from the Hou family returned to the Hou family. The day before yesterday, I received an order from the Hou family. I knew that madam, you had returned here. I didn''t come back until later."


    She said, "Oh," I don''t know how the old lady is. " After a while, she still wanted to see the old lady, so she called Xiao Li in,


    She asked Xiao Li, "did I get what Xiao Ji took from the health care hall that day?"


    Xiao Li nodded, "maidservant, go and get it." Then he went out again.


    Mother Wu then said, "the old lady hasn''t heard anything bad. But aunt Zhou...... "


    "Aunt Zhou?" Zhuo Xi was surprised. Isn''t that his nominal "mother"? Strange to say, I had lived in the Wu family for so long that I didn''t see Aunt Zhou come to see her own daughter¡° By the way, you said to send her snacks last time. Did you send them? "


    Mother Wu looked a little dignified. "That day, she asked the little girl to send it. The little girl was not smart enough. She didn''t see her aunt herself. She just handed it to Qiufeng hospital. Then you left, and the old slave didn''t have a chance to see Aunt Zhou. When I came back the day before yesterday and just settled down, the old slave prepared a box of nods and wanted to see Aunt Zhou in person. However, I heard that she didn''t slip a few days ago and fell into the pond and drowned. "


    "What?!" She stood up¡° Was it a real accident? "


    Mother Wu said, "after all, this is the Wu family. It''s not easy for old slaves to inquire too much. I just heard that Aunt Zhou was a little crazy when she was locked up in the autumn wind hospital. It''s also possible to go out to visit the garden on this winter night and accidentally fall into the pool."


    "Crazy? Why haven''t you heard of it before? " Zhuo Xi looked a little dignified.


    Mother Wu said, "I heard that the young lady was a little crazy before she came back. She has been locked up in the autumn wind yard and can''t come out. Last time the little girl sent to deliver snacks came back and said that when she took the dessert box to Qiufeng hospital, it seemed that she did hear a woman crying. So she didn''t dare to stay any longer. After she sent something, she hurried back. "


    She was absorbed in meditation, and heard a girl say in the outside newspaper, "the young master is coming."


    She was stunned and remembered that the young master was Wu Xing. I remembered that I came out from the tomb last year, met this cheap brother, and took advantage of his identity to find a serious birth for myself. So many things happened in the middle. I really felt like an separated world. Speaking of it, I really want to thank him.


    When mother Wu saw her in a daze, she whispered, "Miss?"


    She looked back, "Oh, please sit in the outer room for a while, and I''ll come."


    At this time, Xiao Li came in with a big burden, "Miss, it''s all here. I don''t know what you can do, and the maidservant didn''t pack it up. I want to ask you when you wake up. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "don''t clean up, just put it in the house." These things should be sent out soon. She turned out two bags of things, took them in her hand and went out.


    Seeing Wu Xing, she gently saluted from her heart and shouted "big brother." This big brother is from her heart, with a little gratitude and a little guilt. Gratitude is to thank him for taking care of himself all the way. Guilt is to know that he has added a lot of trouble to him. For example, this time he was dismissed and stayed in Kyoto. Does it really have nothing to do with himself?


    Wu Xing was stunned and didn''t know how to react.


    Zhuo Xi sat down and coughed, "brother, what''s the matter?"


    Wu Xing recovered and touched his nose, "ha ha, this is the first time I''ve seen you salute me. It seems to be true..."


    "Really what?" A female voice came. Two light figures came in.


    Zhuo Xi got up and nodded, "it''s the third sister and the fifth sister. You''re coming. It''s been a long time. Please sit down. "


    The two sat down and Wu Ru nodded awkwardly. "Six younger sister, we came over two days ago and the maid said you were asleep. Today, we''re taking a chance. Unexpectedly, we met the eldest brother here."


    Wu Jiao asked impolitely, "brother, what did you just say she seems to be true? What is true? Is there anything else false? "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. She wondered if she knew anything.


    Wu Xing also suddenly realized that he had said something wrong and pondered, "I mean, it seems like a real lady. You see, six younger sisters have grown up in the countryside since childhood. It''s really not easy to be so serious. "


    Zhuo Xi also laughed, "don''t make fun of me, brother. Brother, this is the green tea I asked to bake before. It''s called Biluochun. It tastes refreshing. If you don''t dislike it, you can take a bag back to drink. This bag is the Longjing tea presented to the king before. I don''t know my father''s taste. I can only prepare it according to the king''s taste. Please hand it over to my father when you are free. "


    Wu Xing took the tea, his face was a little stiff, and then nodded, "I''m relieved to see that you''re all right now. I''ll tell my father. Talk to your sisters and I''ll go first. "


    The three stood up and sent Wu Xing out. They came back and sat down again.


    Zhuo Xi asked, "third and fifth sisters, what''s important for you to come here?"


    Wu Jiao snorted coldly. Don''t turn your head and don''t talk.


    Wu Ru said softly, "six younger sisters, it''s nothing. I heard you came back to recuperate. Come and see six younger sisters. Are you all right?"


    Zhuo Xi was a little guilty. "She said it was to recuperate, but it didn''t matter. I''m just tired and sleep too little. I''ll be fine after these two days. Don''t worry. "


    "Hum, I said she was pretending." Wu Jiao snorted.


    Zhuo Xi was a little funny. She didn''t know where she offended the aunt again. After thinking about it, she said, "is it near the end of March? By the way, aren''t you going to participate in the palace election? How was the primary? "


    Speaking of the primary election, Wu Jiao looked a little arrogant. "Naturally, it''s going well. She''s going to see each other in the palace next month."


    Zhuo Xi sincerely congratulated her, "congratulations to the third sister. Fifth sister, what about you? "


    Wu Ru said sadly, "I''m going too."


    Zhuo Xi knew that the fifth sister didn''t want to enter the palace, so she patted her hand and said, "I should be free tomorrow, but would you like me to accompany you to the Feiyu drunken jade Pavilion and choose some clothes and jewelry?"


    Wu Jiao''s face was happy and made no secret of it, "thank you so much for the six younger sisters."


    Wu Ru hesitated, "six younger sister, doesn''t your body matter? You just woke up. Do you want to rest for two days before you go out? "


    "It doesn''t matter. I''m going to greet my grandmother. Three sisters and five sisters. Why don''t we go together?"


    Wu Ru thought of something, covered her mouth and said with a smile, "it''s time to greet her grandmother. She has recently prepared a dowry for you, but she has turned a lot of white hair. "


    "What dowry?" Zhuo Xi looked chilly.

 Chapter 126

    Jing Tai was surprised, "empress mother, Wu Yishi is only a seven grade female official, and Wu Taifu is only a three grade too servant. How can you be Mrs. Hou of Guang''an? Don''t be too wronged, brother yuan! "


    The Empress Dowager said angrily, "what! Do you have to ask your brother''s permission to marry your son? " Then she coughed again.


    Jing Tai came forward and said, "don''t worry, don''t worry. What the mother means is that she has married brother yuan! "


    The Empress Dowager coughed twice and said somewhat unnaturally, "to tell the king, the AI family married them before the Shangyuan Festival. Now, AI family wants to see them get married! "


    "Before Shangyuan Festival? Mother, why are you so anxious? His engagement with Wang Meimei has just been dissolved. He... "


    The queen mother said, "don''t think about it. The AI family only asked him about his marriage years ago. He said that the AI family was in charge. The AI family had planned to negotiate the wedding date with the Wang family after the new year. Who knows, then something good happened between you and beauty Wang, and this engagement was dissolved, so it was named zhengyanshun. Since there was no engagement, he pushed the boat along the river and begged the petitioner for another marriage. After waiting for so many years, how could he refuse? "


    After a long silence, Jing Tai gritted his teeth and said, "empress mother, if so, when do you want them to get married?"


    "Tui''er, now that there is no war in the south, how about letting yuan''er return to Beijing first? It will take more than half a month to return to Beijing from Liangzhou. The date of the big marriage should be one month later! " Then she coughed again and sighed, "I don''t know if the mourners can live until their wedding."


    Mother Su kowtowed her head again. "Madam, don''t abandon yourself like this. You will get better." She turned to the king and said, "Sir, the Empress Dowager has only this wish left now. I hope you have mercy on me. It is said that people are in good spirits when they have a happy event. I believe that since there is a saying of happiness among the people, such a great event will certainly help the mother''s condition. "


    Jing Tai closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, "empress mother, please rest assured. My son immediately issued an order to Liangzhou to order brother yuan to go to Beijing. Also, can you keep a copy of your order on file? Does the son send a message to the Wu family again? "


    The Empress Dowager on the bed closed her eyes and sighed, "Wang Er, it''s the idea of AI family to give marriage. They just act according to the orders of AI family. Why bother to embarrass them? You should choose an auspicious day from the left of the waiting clock, and then go to the Hou house and the Wu family to make a decree. "


    Jing Tai took a deep breath and pressed down the anger in his chest, "Nuo. Mother. "


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi stood up. "What dowry? Whose dowry? "


    Wu Jiao showed disdain, "nature is your dowry. Although aunt Zhou is gone, you still have your own mother. Mother will prepare it for you. " It''s about her mother''s reputation. She still needs to protect it. It''s the old lady. She has to stare at the dowry list every day. Sometimes she thinks her mother gives less, and sometimes she thinks her mother gives less.


    Zhuo Xi was too lazy to talk to her and directly asked Wu Ru, "fifth sister, do you know who I want to marry?"


    Wu Ru replied positively, "of course it''s the Marquis of Guang''an! The Empress Dowager''s order has been enshrined in the ancestral hall for nearly two months. "


    She was dizzy. "Why don''t I know?"


    Wu Ru replied, "you are not in the house after the Shangyuan Festival. We were shocked when the eldest brother asked the Empress Dowager for an order. Grandma was so happy that she couldn''t close her mouth. "


    Why didn''t the palace people announce the decree in front of themselves? And why is it the Yizhi requested by Wu Xing? Under what circumstances did Wu Xing ask for Yizhi? What happened during his absence? What is the connection between these things and my aunt''s death that week?


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead. One by one, what''s going on?


    She took some things from the house for Xiao Li to take, and then went to the Luoqing hospital with Wu Jiao and Wu Ru. The tea around the old lady had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw the three people coming, she quickly welcomed them. "I''ve seen Miss three, Miss five and miss six."


    Wu Jiao said with a shelf, "no gift. Grandma is resting? "


    "I heard that miss six woke up. The old lady said she was afraid that miss six would come to greet her, so she had been waiting." With that, tea opened the curtain inside and let the three ladies in.


    When they saw the old grandmother sitting in the middle of the house, they bowed down and said, "greetings to grandma."


    "Get up, get up." The old lady smiled happily, "Oh, it''s not easy to see you three sisters together again. The three of you don''t have much time to get together. Now you''re going to see each other in the palace. I''m afraid it''s more difficult to get together again in the future. "


    Liu opened the curtain, came in and said with a smile, "isn''t it? In particular, the six girls will not reach the hairpin until next year. It''s impossible to say when they will get married. "


    The old lady waved to Zhuo Xi, "Xiao liu''er, come on, I heard you slept for two more days? How well are you? "


    Zhuo Xi came forward and held the old lady''s hand. "Grandma, Xiao liuer is all right. She''s just too tired. When she''s full of sleep, she''ll be alive."


    The old lady smiled, "where can someone be tired and sleep for two days and nights without waking up? Don''t think I''m wordy. I''d better ask a doctor to have a good look. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "grandma, Xiao liuer''s body knows. You can rest assured! "


    Liu Shi also said with a smile, "yes, Xiao liu''er is a doctor. If there is anything really wrong, she can heal herself. Mother, you can rest assured."


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "yes, grandma, the chrysanthemum medlar tea Xiao liuer gave you can be used every day? What''s wrong with you? "


    The old lady''s eyes were all cracked with laughter, "you child, since you come back to recuperate, you should take good care of yourself. Why did you run away when you just came back? Grandma is good at everything. You drink tea every day. You really feel that your chest is much smoother, and your old anger is not so strong. When grandma finishes drinking that tea, she must ask you for it. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly motioned to Xiao Li standing aside and took two packets of flower tea from her hand, "grandma, how can you wait until you speak. This is a new flower tea. Xiao liu''er thought that you had drunk medlar chrysanthemum tea for a while. Your anger was slightly cleared, so he added some jujubes to the tea to replenish the middle and replenish the Qi. You have a try first. If anything is wrong, Xiao liu''er will adjust it for you. "


    The old lady asked red tea to accept the two bags of tea, "you are a filial good child."


    Zhuo Xi asked Xiao Li to open the big box in her hand, all of which were small bottles and cans. "Mother, this is what Xiao Liu er made in his spare time. These two bottles can delay aging. Mother, would you like to try?" Liu Shi was overjoyed to see that there was something that could delay aging. He took it and said good.


    Zhuo Xi turned to the two girls again, "third sister and fifth sister, these bottles of ointment can not only moisturize the skin, but also whiten and brighten the skin color. Do you want to try?"


    Wu Ru happily picked it up, opened the lid and smelled, "six younger sisters, it smells good!"


    Wu Jiao also took the bottle and said nothing with a faint look.


    Zhuo Xi nodded to Wu Ru, "just like the fifth sister."


    Liu Shi smiled happily, "Xiao liu''er, although you didn''t grow up with us since childhood, we always miss you. It was the Taoist who said that you could not enter the house before 13, so it was too late to pick you up for a long time. Don''t worry. Although aunt Zhou is gone now, your grandmother and I have been discussing your dowry these days. We will marry you out. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled. Liu''s move directly turned her kindness into flattery. She thought she sent it here and there just to let the Wu family prepare more dowries. In this way, let her think it''s good¡° Grandma, you and your mother are worried about liu''er''s marriage. Liu''er has nothing to worry about. Only liu''er heard about his marriage today. He felt very strange. Grandma, would you like to tell liu''er what the Empress Dowager''s decree says? "


    The old lady respectfully saluted the direction of the ancestral hall, "little six, you were not in the house two months ago. It was your eldest brother who took the order of the Empress Dowager. The empress dowager, Shengde, will marry you to the Marquis of Guang''an. It is listed as the first and second grade marquis. This is really the glory of the Wu family. "


    "Does the Empress Dowager have a wedding date in her order?"


    The old lady''s face was stiff. "The date of marriage has not been set. She only said that she would get married on another day. But how can the Empress Dowager disobey her order? I think the wedding date is not far away. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said with some embarrassment, "so, Liu er''s marriage is all up to his grandmother and mother." She was really embarrassed. She not only let the Wu family spend money, but also let the old man worry.


    Liu''s heart is happy. Marrying the royal family is not only the honor of the Wu family, but also a great help to the future of his master and son. On this thought, she felt that the dowry list she had seen yesterday was too thin. She still had to go to the warehouse to find some things to press the bottom of the box.


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    After Jing Tui left, the Empress Dowager sat up slowly. A cough gushed out of her lungs, and there was another pain in her abdomen. She coughed for a long time before it subsided slowly. She looked at mammy Su sadly and closed her eyes.


    Mother Su twisted a clean hot towel and gently pressed the corners of the Empress Dowager''s eyes, then her face. But she didn''t want to see more and more tears in the corners of her eyes. Mammy Su hurriedly unfolded the towel into a long strip and covered her eyes, so that she couldn''t see the liquid.


    But the next moment she hurriedly pulled out a towel from her armpit and pressed it anxiously at the corner of her eyes.


    After a long time, I heard the Empress Dowager sigh and spit out a sullen breath in her chest. Knowing that her saddest moment had passed, Mammy Su dried her tears, gently took off the towel on the back of the empress dowager, washed it in a basin, and cleaned her face for the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager slowly opened her eyes and said calmly, "let uya and them come back first. Don''t check it again. Further investigation will only make the only weak hope in the mourning family''s heart completely extinguished and only increase sadness. "


    Mother Su felt the same way and said "yes" gently After thinking for a while, he asked, "Hong Ling, why don''t you let her come back first?"


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "you should have been alert earlier. On the day xiaodezi died at shunzhimen, AI family should be alert."


    Mother Su scolded herself, "yes. On that day, heng''er sent the news of xiaodezi''s death. The slave and maid should think that he must have found something before he encountered a poisonous hand. Unexpectedly, they moved their hands and feet in your clean water basin. " They guard against food and clothing day and night, but they never expected that the problem was in the water.


    The Empress Dowager said, "Mammy, don''t blame yourself. Didn''t that girl say? It''s not surprising that insect eggs are transparent and colorless and will stick to your hands. I''m afraid they didn''t just put it once, but put the insect eggs in the basin every day until the infected maid died. Such a thing is impossible to prevent. You and I can''t escape. "


    "Fortunately, girl Xi said she had a way. She had to work for you for a few more days. Maybe the way will come."


    The Empress Dowager said calmly, "after hearing that doctor Hong said that the Gu was non-toxic, AI family was relieved. Even in the end, the mourning family still has a bad end, but it doesn''t have to suffer the pain like the former king. If what girl Xi said before is true, even if the first king is buried, he can''t be completely dead. A generation of emperors have been so desolate, and the mourning family can''t find justice for him. It''s really that heaven has no eyes. "


    Mother Su comforted, "after all, you have tried hard, and you have done your best to trace the death of the former king. If there is knowledge under the first king''s spring, it will be quite gratifying. "


    The Empress Dowager is still immersed in her memories. "Ai Jia remembers that in the last few days of the first king, she always confided with AI Jia about her heartache, if it was eaten by a big insect. AI Jia just thought that he coughed with chest pain and exaggerated his words. People who linger on the sick bed will unconsciously amplify their own pain, and mourning can also be understood. Now I think it''s true that the insect ate my heart. When the AI family coughed up blood a few days ago, they always wondered if the Gu insects in the AI family were the same as the former king. If you die immediately, it''s all right. If you want to be as painful as the previous king and die for months, the AI family will let you end the AI family with a cup of poisonous wine. "


    Mother Su''s hair stood on end when she heard this. She burst into tears. "Empress Dowager..."


    The Empress Dowager came back and tried to smile, "Mammy, don''t you think we''ve survived? I believe in yuan''er and Xi girl. This Xi girl, it''s strange to say that AI Jia hasn''t seen her several times, but she always feels very congenial with her... "


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi returned to the moon setting yard, called mother Wu to her and asked, "mother Wu, I just heard about the Empress Dowager''s marriage. I don''t know if mother Wu knows about it?"


    Mother Wu said strangely, "the Empress Dowager married me? For which childe and young lady? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her carefully. "Mother Wu doesn''t know?" Wu''s mother was not at Wu''s house when she wanted to invite empress dowager Wu to give her order.


    Mother Wu shook her head. "I really don''t know." She was suddenly shocked. "Did the Empress Dowager marry the Marquis and other girls?"


    Zhuo Xi quickly comforted her, "mother Wu, don''t worry. Either other girls or Hou Ye married me."


    Mother Wu was relieved, and then she was ecstatic. "Madam said that the Empress Dowager married the Marquis and his wife?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "yes."


    Mother Wu said happily, "Empress Dowager Shengde. Now, madam, it''s just right! "


    Zhuo Xi frowned. "However, this Yi intention is strange. Mother Wu, if it''s convenient for you, inquire about one or two in the house for me. What happened in the house in the past two months?" What''s the matter, let this Yizhi come into being?

 Chapter 127

    In the palace, Jing Ti was kneeling in front of the little simazhong doctor Gongsun Li. Gongsun likankan finished reading the memorial that the king had just thrown to him, handed it to Leke next to him, and then bowed down to the ground, "Sir, since general Zhou has been highly valued by the king, he has led 300000 troops north to Wuzhou to resist datan, and will be able to recover Wuzhou City and Yunyan city smoothly. Grain and grass Zizhong is already on the road, but the 50000 arrows and 100000 new grass he wants still need to be slowly painted. "


    Jing Tai looked at Le Ke on one side, "Le Sikong, how is the refining progress of cangcui mountain and Liangzhou mines now? When will these weapons needed by general Zhou be collected? "


    Le Ke replied, "back to the king, since general Zhou''s army went north, the inner government has stepped up the destruction of two mines in cangcui mountain and Liangzhou, allowing the craftsmen to give priority to the production of new weapons. Tomorrow, a batch of weapons, about 10000 arrows, will be transported from Liangzhou to Kyoto, and there will also be a batch of arrows coming from cangcui mountain. However, general Zhou was ordered in the face of danger, and the weapons made of this new iron were difficult to stock for the time being. There are more than 100000 old weapons in the warehouse. The minister suggested that the old and new weapons should be used alternately, and the number required by general Zhou can be collected as soon as possible and escorted to Wuzhou. "


    Jing Tai nodded, "so good. Liangzhou has weapons to send over? " He pondered, "speaking of Liangzhou, Gongsun Aiqing, what is the situation in Liangzhou now?" In the past two months, he has been in a mess. Just after the Lantern Festival, a military newspaper said that datan led 100000 troops to press the border. In just seven days, he won Wuzhou City and Yunyan City, close to Longding mountain. If datan crosses Wuzhou at the foot of Longding mountain, it can drive straight into the hinterland of Wuliang. As a last resort, he revived for several weeks in repeated suffering and entanglement. Liangzhou is the barrier to the south of Wuliang, which has always been guarded by Jing Yuan. Last time, the former king collapsed and died. Jing Yuan returned to Beijing to make a mausoleum. He set up a bureau and almost took him, but he let the tiger go back to the mountain for the iron smelting technology. The Empress Dowager is seriously ill this time. Can''t we take advantage of this opportunity again? The only premise is that there can be no situation on the southern border, otherwise there will be no useful generals in their hands, and it may be difficult to take over the affairs of Liangzhou for a while. But Sanzi Jinghua is in Liangzhou. Maybe she can intervene.


    Gongsun Li replied, "there seems to have been a change in Liangzhou border city. Recently, the news from there said that Zisang was looking for a missing princess. Now there is no news, it should be the same."


    "So good, the new iron weapon manufacturing in Liangzhou..."


    Le Ke replied, "it is reported that the veins found in Liangzhou a few years ago are being mined in an orderly manner, and the weapons manufacturing has been carried out in an orderly manner. The craftsmen we sent have taken over the place."


    But Jing Tai is more concerned about "the prescription of ironmaking technology..."


    "According to the report of the steward craftsman, 70% of the weapons refined in this mine were handed over to the inner government, and the other 30% provided 100000 troops in Liangzhou. Therefore, the supervisor sent by the Marquis seriously taught all the technical points to the manager Zhang Chu and the craftsmen. After all, they are the same batch of refined weapons. How dare they be different? They are all not Liangzi people. How can they joke about the lives of soldiers? In less than a month, Zhang Chu, the general manager sent to Liangzhou, must have handed over the drawings of making new weapons and the secret folding of forging methods, so that we can transfer this method to the mines in Dazhi, Qingzhou and other places. After that, there will be a steady flow of weapons transported to the inner government for unified deployment, which will not be as stretched as today. " If there is a difference between good and bad weapons, it is to joke about the lives of soldiers.


    Jing Tai breathed a sigh of relief. At the beginning, he asked Jing Yuan to go to Liangzhou to re open up mines and forge troops in order to mainly use this technology. At the beginning, his decision seemed to be correct. Now that the goal has been achieved, if Jing Yuan wants to come back


    He added: "the Empress Dowager is now critically ill and wants to call Guang''an hou to return to Beijing to get married recently. What do you two think?"


    Le Ke replied, "the king governs the world with filial piety. If you can celebrate the Empress Dowager with the Duke''s big marriage, it will not only be beneficial to the Empress Dowager''s illness, but also show the king''s benevolence and filial piety. It''s a double whammy. "


    Gongsun Li replied, "back to the king, although the Marquis has his own fief, he is still an important Minister of the king. If the Empress Dowager is seriously ill, it is reasonable to call her back to Beijing. However, from Liangzhou to Kyoto, it takes seven days. The mountain is high and the road is far away. Some small bumps on the road are inevitable. And the Empress Dowager''s marriage to Hou ye and Miss Wu jialiu has become a foregone conclusion. Even if Hou Ye returns to Liangzhou after his marriage, Mrs. Hou''s mother''s family is in Kyoto, and she must be willing to stay in Kyoto. "


    Yue Ke frowned when he heard this.


    However, Jing ti''s eyes became brighter and brighter. Originally, he asked Jing Yuan to go to Liangzhou to strengthen his troops for smelting iron at the border, and to keep the tiger away from himself and control the danger at the border. Now the Empress Dowager wants to call Jing Yuan back, and he feels that danger is imminent. There are two meanings in Gongsun Li''s words: if you are afraid of the arrival of the tiger, you can arrange some accidents on the way back to Beijing in Liangzhou. Although you have arranged many secret nails before, but this time, even if he successfully arrives in Beijing and returns to Liangzhou after his marriage, his wife hou can also stay in Kyoto as a hostage, which is killing one stone.


    Thinking of this, he pondered for a moment and said to Gongsun Li, "so, please ask Gongsun Aiqing to draft the decree."


    "Promise."


    "Your Majesty, the crown prince asked for an audience." The big supervisor five rivers came in and reported.


    "Xuan."


    Gongsunli and Leke retreat at the same time. They pass by the prince and meet each other.


    Outside the hall of political discussion, Gongsun Li couldn''t help asking, "Lord Le, I don''t know something. I want to ask Lord Le one or two."


    Le Ke arched his hands and said, "Lord Gongsun, please speak."


    Gongsun Li replied, "Why are the two mines in cangcui mountain and Liangzhou built arrows recently?"


    Le Ke''s eyelids jumped, "Lord Gongsun, what does this mean?"


    "General Zhou''s troops rushed to Wuzhou with only 50000 arrows, while Xinmao needed 100000. If you miss a good opportunity and miss Wuzhou, it will be a great crime to delay the military opportunity! "


    Le Ke replied, "thank you for your concern. In order to speed up the progress and avoid frequent replacement of molds and reduce the speed, the craftsman must want to finish all the arrows at one go and start building a new Mao? Moreover, the old maonei house still has inventory, which will not delay the military aircraft. General Gongsun won''t bother with such small things. "


    Gongsun Li gave him a deep look, "I hope so. Farewell. "


    Le Ke sent them off with an arched hand. Until Gongsun Li turned out of the palace gate, he slowly walked towards the other gate. Walking to a corner, suddenly a eunuch rushed out with a food box. The two bumped into a place. The eunuch spilled snacks in the box on the ground and apologized, "I''m really sorry, Mr. le." He quickly picked up the snacks on the ground and put them into the box


    Le Ke helped him pick up a few snacks and put them in the box. Finally, he stood up and patted his hands and body, "it''s my official''s carelessness. Go."


    "Thank you, Lord le." The eunuch left contentedly.


    Le Ke clenched the small silk strip in his hand and left contentedly.


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    On the other side, in the palace of political discussion, Prince Leng is kneeling in front of Jing ti.


    Jing Tai looked gloomy. "Now the great Tan army is pressing the border. I have to reuse it for a few weeks. The northwest troops are at his disposal. Do you think you can intercept Jing Yuan with Zhao Ting''s 10000 Dingzhou camp? "


    The crown prince replied in a low voice, "Zhao Ting has been bitter about his defeat in the verdant mountain last time. If you can give him a chance this time, he will certainly make a confession. "


    Jing Tai sneered, "with such a good opportunity last time, 20000 troops surrounded a green mountain can let him escape safely. Now Liangzhou has a smooth way back to Beijing, and Liangzhou is his territory. Why is Zhao Ting confident of success¡°


    Prince Leng was secretly disgusted. If his father hadn''t coveted his iron smelting skills, even if they hid in the mine, how could he escape?


    Jing Ti said again, "what''s the matter with the prison gate¡°


    The prince looked very cold. I don''t know how much his father knew about his plan. "Father Rong reported that the prison gate was the first killer organization in the northwest. Last time his son saw his sixth uncle returning to Liangzhou alone, he thought he had an opportunity, so he spent a lot of money to invite them to Liangzhou¡°


    ¡±Hum, "Jingtai is even more sneering," what is the first killer organization in Northwest China? It is also a group of losers! Isn''t Yanluo needle known as the first needle in the world? How can you miss it again and again? "


    again and again? The prince''s forehead was sweating and his body fell lower, "father, forgive me! Prison Yuanmen used to move in the northwest and knew little about Beijing. That night, they accidentally disturbed Shengjia. My son''s ministers have scolded them. Please forgive me! "


    "Disturbing? Reprimand? Prince, Prince, is that too light? " Jing Tai looked at the young man in his early twenties. He didn''t know when the son became ambitious. It was clear that he had just been crowned prince. How could he dare to have such a rebellious mind? He has been forbearing to ask about this matter. Now the prison yuan gate has occupied zhaojialing and has dominated one side. However, zhaojialing has a special geographical and political position, and the Liangzhou troops are in the hands of Jingyuan. He has no choice but to investigate the origin of the prison yuan gate. He remembered that a group of people of unknown origin had led the people of the prison gate away from him that day. Was it the prince?


    Prince Leng immediately trembled with fear. "Father, although the prison yuan gate was first employed by his son''s ministers to perform tasks in Kyoto, its head has always been strange and independent, son''s ministers, son''s ministers..." he gritted his teeth, hardened his head and said in one breath, "the son''s ministers asked him to return to the palace for trial and Atonement after completing the task, but they refused..."


    Jing Tai picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it over, "seek skin from the tiger! Want to kill people without strength? "


    The inkstone fell on the crown prince''s shoulder, and the crown prince''s shoulder was in a black mess, "my son knew he was wrong." The master of Li Gongyuan''s prison is the master of Li Gongyuan''s prison. Now he knows that he is the master of Li Gongyuan''s prison. With the strength of prison Yuanmen and Zhao Jialing''s unique position, he had nothing to do with them.


    "Fool!" Jing Tui took a deep breath. He understood that his son, since becoming the prince, even more eager than himself to kill Jing Yuan with a heavy army, but why¡° Now that Zhao Ting is angry and wants to make a confession, although he has only more than 10000 disabled soldiers, he can make him bypass Hezhou and surround Zhongliang mountain pass with 10000 troops of Zhang Yuan. Go and spread the secret message. "


    The prince''s eyes shone with hope, "thank you, father! My son will live up to my father''s trust! "

    The next day, Zhuo Xi Yiyan took Wu Jiao and Wu Ru to Feiyu zuiyu pavilion to choose some popular clothes and jewelry. He went to the big shopkeeper to learn about the operation of the store, and cleaned up the accounts. It took two hours before he took the two satisfied sisters back to the Wu family.


    After sitting down and having a rest for a while, Xiao Li came in with the basin brought out of the palace and said, "Miss, it was sent by Dr. Hong Quan. He said he didn''t know the insects in the basin, so he had to turn to you for help."


    Zhuo Xi opened it and looked carefully. Sure enough, there were several black insects swimming on the basin wall. It was difficult to distinguish their species.


    She said, "Xiao Li, you take the soft white silk and lead these insects into different bowls. You feed them with clean water, light chicken blood, pond muddy water and kitchen swill. Tell me what''s going on in time."


    Xiao Li nodded and went out.


    That evening, Xiao Li came to tell her that all the insects in the other bowls were dead except the one raised by light chicken blood.


    A few days later, she saw it with her own eyes and was basically sure that it was a kind of Schistosoma. After human infection, various complications would slowly appear and eventually lead to death.


    After thinking about it, she asked Xiao Li to go to Ke min of sanxiangfang and taught her to send a message, "it was preliminarily diagnosed as blood sucking water Gu. First, she simply fried 15 grams of half lotus three times a day for three days. If you have any symptoms, please report to me." Ke Min has his own way to contact Wang Meimei. The purpose of sending an oral message is to prevent leaving written evidence.


    Xiao Li answered and went out.


    In the afternoon, another post came in. Zhuo Xi was very happy to see this post. It turned out to be Ke min. She was thinking of going to sanxiangfang tomorrow to see how well she was preparing for the Yan nourishing hall. The shopkeeper who was caught temporarily came to the door.


    The next day, Ke min came to visit.


    The porter already knows that Miss Liu is going to be Mrs. Guang''an Hou. Will the guests who come to visit Mrs. Guang''an Hou in the future be blocked? After reporting to the moon setting courtyard and getting a positive reply, the porter politely welcomed the woman who looked either rich or expensive into the inner courtyard.


    Zhuo Xi sat at the head of the main hall of the moon setting courtyard and waited. This is the first time she has used this position. The main reason is that she has always regarded herself as a guest of the Wu family. She has to leave after staying for a while, so she has no consciousness of being a master at all; Secondly, she lived in Wu''s house and had never been visited by guests. Therefore, she didn''t need to dress up grandly and sit in the main hall waiting for guests to visit.


    Not long after, Ke min was led in by the little maid from outside. As soon as she came in, Ke min bowed to the ground.


    Zhuo Xi was startled and hurriedly reached out to help, "shopkeeper Ke, what are you doing?"


    "Ke min thanked the girl for saving her life. This kindness has been hanging in my heart for nearly a hundred days. If I don''t officially thank you, I will still have trouble sleeping and eating. Miss, please sit down and accept my three obeisances. "


    Ke min looked firmly at the little girl who looked only 14 or 15 years old.


    Zhuo Xi knew that she must finish the ceremony before she gave up. She sat back in her seat and was worshipped by her.


    Then she motioned Ke min to take a seat under her head. The clever Xiao Li had already offered tea.


    Zhuo Xi looked carefully at Ke min in front of her. She was wearing a gold embroidered moire silk saddle, lined with a dark purple dark branch pattern veil skirt, two red gold inlaid white jade water and clear flowers on her head, and a red gold inlaid white jade bracelet of the same color on her wrist. It was not only elegant and beautiful, but also solemn and generous. Then he turned his eyes to her face, and saw that her face was slightly powdered. The exquisite facial features combined with the bright look made her whole person seem to emit light. He didn''t see the pale helplessness when he saved her life that day. She was so different from the one standing in front of her at this time. Zhuo Xi was stunned for a moment.


    Ke min knew that the little girl in front of her was not simple. Seeing that she looked at herself for a long time and didn''t speak, she couldn''t help laughing, "why, but there''s something wrong with my face?"


    Zhuo Xi returned to her senses and told the truth, "sister Ke was so extraordinary that I was stunned for a moment." Also, if it weren''t so gorgeous, how could he accompany the rich merchant as a concubine for many years and still be able to run a hospital alone elsewhere? I think my ability and courage are not comparable to ordinary women. I found a treasure at the beginning.


    Ke Min said with a bitter smile, "the girl''s wisdom knows that it''s difficult to serve people with color for a long time. Don''t laugh at me, girl." Seeing that her boss called her sister Ke, she knew that the other party didn''t want to be commensurate with the boss, so she also changed her name.


    Zhuo Xi woke up and was afraid to remind her of her sadness. "I really didn''t expect that my sister was so beautiful. I never meant to laugh at you. I think I saw you several times that day, but I was ill in bed. Since then, although you and I have corresponded many times and become friends at first sight, it''s hard to imagine how my sister dressed up like this. On that day, I left Beijing in a hurry and temporarily blinded myself. I entrusted Xiyan Yangsheng hall to my sister who was still in confinement. It''s really difficult for me. I hope my sister won''t blame me. " Although she had apologized in her letter before, it was more sincere to apologize face to face.


    Ke min smiled, "girl, don''t say that. I fully know that you entrusted me with that day to stimulate my ambition to survive. You not only pulled me back from the palace of hell, but also gave me the hope and opportunity to live again. I can''t thank you enough. How can I blame you? What''s more, my sister''s career is really too much for my appetite. Not to mention how difficult women are today, let''s say that those noble ladies are for skin maintenance... "She began to talk about several main businesses of Xiyan Yangsheng hall, which glittered and showed great interest. She once heard about the story of Kou Niang from the Marquis house in Guang''an. She knew that the construction team of the Marquis house, which is now popular in the whole of Kyoto, and the initial design that almost subverts everyone''s imagination of the structural style, all originated from the seemingly insignificant Marquis house waiter. She often thought about the ideas and ideas in the girl''s letter during the three months she was handling the preparatory affairs of the health care hall in Beijing, I have to sigh. How can such an amazing person be the little girl who looks only 14 or 15 years old in front of him?


    She said for almost half an hour. Finally, she made a concluding statement, "over the past three months, I have arranged all the ideas in your letter, and I will wait until the girl comes back to set the opening date. This Xiyan Yangsheng hall will surely start in Kyoto. "


    Zhuo Xi has been listening carefully, listening to her understanding of her own ideas. If there is a slight bias or omission in some places, she also made suggestions and supplements in due time. Hearing this, she couldn''t help but rejoice. She knew she didn''t find the wrong person. When she left, the front yard of the Yangshengtang didn''t start construction at all. Unexpectedly, it was only three months, and everything was ready¡° I''m afraid I can''t open it for the moment¡°


    "I''m afraid I can''t open it for the moment." Zhuo Xi said.


    Ke min was stunned and thought about it for a moment. "Also, I''m afraid it''s because of the noble people in the palace? Yes, I forgot it. I really shouldn''t have. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "speaking of the palace, I still want to thank you. If you hadn''t taken care of it, beauty Wang would not have been able to send the news to Liangzhou so soon. " Since she promised beauty Wang to take care of her, she naturally wanted to leave someone to consult with her. The goat''s milk and dessert prescription were all handed to beauty Wang by Ke min''s hand. It can be regarded as a curve to honor the Empress Dowager.


    "This is just a small effort. How can I thank you?" Ke min quickly waved her hand and added, "yesterday''s news has reached me. Don''t worry, girl."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "sister, I''m naturally at ease. But I want to have a look at sanxiangfang. I''m really itchy, too. Yes, it''s better to hit the sun than choose a day. Let''s go to Sanxiang square tomorrow to see how the scene is. " At present, the Empress Dowager is seriously ill and cannot open business in private or public. But some things are prepared first.


    ¡±What the girl said is that the contacts in Kyoto are more familiar than my family¡°


    Zhuo Xi knew that she meant that she didn''t want to study deeply by virtue of the relationship network of Hou''s house. She just said, "also, I haven''t seen your baby since he was born. I heard Xiao Li say how you spoil him every day, and I''m going to see how you spoil him."


    Ke min laughed. "It''s a blessing for bao''er to have your help for several generations. However, "she suddenly pinched," I''ve always had an idea. I don''t know what to say? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "although you and I don''t meet much, the geese have been making friends for a long time. What''s more polite for you and me?"


    Ke Min said with a smile, "exactly. I''ve been thinking that you are a noble person between me and bao''er. If I hadn''t met you, bao''er would have no chance to see the world. Therefore, I think, if you don''t dislike that boa is a fatherless child, can boa recognize a godmother with you? "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. It was his first experience.


    When Ke min saw that she was silent, she thought she didn''t want to. "The girl is a blessed person. Bao''er was abandoned by her father before she was born. I''m afraid it''s a blessing. I haven''t got rid of my slave status yet, so I''m climbing high... "I''m a slave girl. Although she''s in charge of the inner court in other hospitals in Qinzhou, she still hasn''t got rid of her slave status. Xiao Ji heard back that she has a relationship with Guang''an Hou. Maybe one day this girl will become Mrs. Guang''an Hou. I think someone must say she''s attached to powerful people. She thought about it and felt more and more inappropriate. She hastily denied it. "I really made a mistake. Please¡°


    Before she finished, Zhuo Xi grinned and interrupted her, "what''s your sister saying? Isn''t it a blessing for bao''er to meet me?!"


    Ke min was surprised. "What does the girl mean...?"


    "I was just wondering how to recognize the godmother? What should I prepare? Do you want to cut a new suit? What gift do you want to give boa? Oh, yes, the meeting ceremony must be indispensable, but I don''t know what to pay attention to?... "


    Ke min''s eyes filled with tears, some choked and said, "no, no, it''s his blessing that he can call you a godmother. Where else are there so many trivial things?"


    "Yes, yes, no, No. I''ll ask mother Wu about it later. She knows better than I do... "

 Chapter 129

    Ke min''s eyes turned red again. Although he knew that Da en didn''t say thank you, he still paid a big tribute, "thank you, Miss Da en!"


    Then, Zhuo Xi let the people disperse. Xiaoji Xiaoguai immediately went around Xiaoli to their wing room to talk.


    Zhuo Xi took Xiao soul to her special operating room and asked Ke min to invite Hong Quan.


    The Empress Dowager''s illness is the real purpose of her trip.


    She motioned Xiao soul to take out the Schistosoma raised with chicken blood. Hong Quan opened his eyes.


    Zhuo Xi stopped what he wanted to say, "I already have a prescription to cure insects, but I don''t know the foundation of the Empress Dowager''s body. I don''t dare to take medicine rashly. Please teach me." She arched her hand in a formal salute.


    Hong Quan was frightened. "Girl, I have extraordinary medical skills. I really have nothing to teach."


    "No, what I want to learn from my husband is to feel the pulse. Tell me more about the Empress Dowager''s pulse that day, as well as the methods and key points of taking the pulse. Mr. wanwang, don''t hide it. " I can''t feel my pulse. It''s not always a way. I must overcome it. I don''t think I''ll take Hong Quan every time I go to the palace in the future?


    "No, I dare not hide. I must know everything and say everything. "


    So all afternoon, Zhuo Xi was learning how to judge all kinds of pulse signs. After touching everyone''s pulse signs in the hall, she understood what floating pulse and string pulse are.


    Just when learning the leather pulse, Zhuo Xi found that Hong Quan''s eyes were slightly strange. Seeing that he frequently motioned her to take her own pulse, she followed the good example, put her right hand on the pulse of her left hand, and said for a long time, "floating and broad fingers, hollow and firm outside, micro string, is really the image of leather pulse. Sir, what are the men and women of the leather pulse? "


    Hong Quan said in a low voice, "men mainly lose blood and sperm, and women mainly leak diseases in half labor."


    Zhuo Xi''s head exploded with a bang.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    When she returned to the house, she sat for a while. Zhuo Xi handed Xiao Hun the "Golden Chamber collection" that Hong Quan held when she left, and told her to find some similar medical books when she had time. She turned in the carriage and saw that there was a detailed method of asking for pulse. She thought it would be of great help to herself in the future.


    Xiao soul asked carefully, "master, but what''s wrong?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. She was in a low mood and didn''t want to talk. In fact, it''s mainly because she didn''t want to know when she passed the birth?


    There was a little girl calling outside. Xiao soul went out to see the backward and said, "Miss, the eldest lady Liu is coming."


    However, Xiao soul still looked pale. Fu said again, "Miss, the eldest lady Liu is coming. Have you seen or not?"


    Zhuo Xi remembered that Liu Shi had never been to her falling moon courtyard. I don''t know why? She thought for a moment and said, "please take her seat in the main room."


    "Promise." She was blessed and went out.


    Zhuo Xi straightened her clothes and got up to go out. When she reached the main room, Liu sat on the master''s chair on the right side of the head and was carrying a cup of tea from Xiao soul.


    Zhuo Xi went up to Weifu and said, "I''ve seen my mother. I wonder why my mother came here? "


    Liu stood up and knew that all the honors and Disgraces of the Wu family were on the common woman. He smiled and said, "Xiao liu''er, is this your new close maid? Why didn''t you see the surprise speech before? "


    Zhuo Xi knew she might have something important to say. Tun nodded and replied, "surprised Yan has found his biological parents and has been reunited with them. Xiao soul came from Hou''s house, but his mother said, "it doesn''t hurt."


    Liu glanced at Xiao Hun, who was standing on one side with an expressionless face, sat down again, motioned Zhuo Xi to sit on his left hand and said, "although the Empress Dowager has not set a date for your wedding, her mother thinks your dowry should be prepared. In particular, your fengguanxia phi is very complicated to make. Mother wants to ask the tailor in the mansion to measure your frame and cut your size tomorrow. Although you are required to sew and embroider the wedding clothes inside and outside the Xia Phi brocade quilt, your mother is afraid that you are not very flexible when you recover from a serious illness. Ru''er and jiao''er are not very sensible, but the embroidery work is OK. After that, why don''t you let their sister and son come together to sew and embroider the wedding clothes for you? It''s my uncle''s clothes, shoes and hats. I''m afraid they can''t pass through the hands of others. You have to work hard for a few days. " It''s a few days. I''m afraid it''s not enough to prepare for a few months.


    Zhuo Xi felt a little warm in her heart. She knew that the details of the procedure were too cumbersome and far from being the shopkeeper. She smiled and said, "my mother thought very carefully. My daughter was shocked by the Empress Dowager''s intention yesterday and hasn''t returned to her mind. Where can I think so much? Thank my mother for her thoughtfulness."


    Liu said kindly, "they are all from their own family. It''s too late for my mother to be happy. Why do you say thank you?"


    Zhuo Xi asked, "mother, I heard that the Empress Dowager''s Yizhi is enshrined in the small Buddha Hall. Xiao liu''er has never seen the Tianjia Yizhi. I wonder if I can go to the small Buddha Hall to honor one or two?"


    Liu replied, "Yizhi was originally given to you, naturally." Originally, only the owner and his wife and children could enter the small Buddhist hall dedicated to the memorial tablets of their ancestors, but the common woman was different after all. She was not only the protagonist of the Empress Dowager''s Yi decree, but also the future Mrs. Hou of Guang''an. Naturally, she was so noble that she could not be regarded as an ordinary common woman.


    "Thank you, mother."


    "Besides, there''s a small thing, my mother thought, I''d like to ask you a favor." Liu Shi took a deep breath, made up his mind and said.


    Zhuo Xi picked her eyebrows, "but it doesn''t hurt if she said it. It''s natural for Xiao liu''er to do it."


    Liu Shi said, "jiao''er is determined to enter the palace. She is so reasonable and unforgiving. She has been spoiled by me since childhood. When she comes to the deep palace, she is afraid that she will be eaten to the bone. But her name is already in the book. If she is selected by the king and queen on that day, I''m afraid we will never see each other again. Jiao''er is stubborn. Her mother hopes Xiao liu''er can find a way. Don''t let her win. " Liu Shi said, wiping up the corners of his eyes. He was really concerned about his daughter. "Jiao''er has been spoiled since childhood and has a high heart. Our lintel has never had the luxury of going to heaven step by step. It''s enough to ask our children to live a safe and smooth life. "


    Hearing the speech, Zhuo Xi was a little surprised. Most parents in the world hope that their daughter can fly to the branches and become a Phoenix, but few sincerely hope that her daughter will be safe and successful. The Wu family is just a family of five grades. It really doesn''t belong to the same circle as the dignitaries she met in the palace before. She had little contact with Liu, but the only few contacts were not dirty. Her impression of Liu was actually good. Although there are not many common sons and women in this house, I haven''t heard that my first mother bullies my aunt and treats them badly. She hesitated and asked, "on that day, will the fifth sister go too?"


    Liu Shi was stunned for a moment. She meant that she didn''t care about the life and death of the common woman? As soon as her thoughts turned, she quickly explained, "yes, ru''er is going too, but she has indicated to me several times that she doesn''t want to enter the palace. She even... "She looked around and saw that only Xiao soul was standing by. Zhuo Xi didn''t want her to go out, so she lowered her voice and said," she has quietly told me that she will not be selected if she can make herself look at others that day. "


    "This is......" it''s a great crime to deceive the king. No wonder Liu''s family wants to discuss with him. In case of an incident at the east window, maybe only he, a little Yi, can speak in front of the Empress Dowager and the king.


    Liu Shi''s expression was chilly, "Xiao liu''er, so I can''t help but come to you quietly to discuss it?"


    Zhuo Xi pondered and asked, "do you know what method the fifth sister is going to use?"


    Liu thought for a moment and replied, "according to her, taking a medicine juice called zishacao a few days before seeing each other can cause rash all over the body. I originally wanted to let jiao''er take some, but I was afraid that the two girls in the Wu family had a rash at the same time, which was suspicious. And jiao''er didn''t want to take this medicine. If she opened it and spread it, it would be a great disaster. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "purple sand grass is extremely hot. If the dose is too large, it may cause rash, especially on the face. However, if this dose is not well controlled, it is easy to make the anger stagnate in the body and cannot be distributed. At least, it is Yin deficiency and fire, and at worst, it is difficult to ensure women''s pregnancy and men''s debauchery. Therefore, doctors do not use purple sand grass as medicine, and the world rarely knows the origin of purple sand grass. But I don''t know where the fifth sister learned the efficacy of this medicine? "


    Liu''s countenance was chilly. Although the Wu family was a five grade family, the backyard was full of internal organs. On weekdays, they were both lenient and strict, and always kept the backyard safe. Several children grew up safely. Except that Xiao Liu was sent to a foreign villa to raise them, there had been no evil things in more than ten years. Now look, the backyard is not an iron bucket, at least jiao''er, It seems that a crack is beginning to crack.


    Zhuo Xi continued, "mother, it''s still some time before next month. If it''s about herbs, after all, it''s related to the body. You still have to think long and hard. Don''t lose big because of small things. The crime of bullying the monarch is no small matter. If an outsider deliberately instigates it, the Wu family will give others a handle. I''d better ask my mother to tell my fifth sister not to act rashly first. The fifth sister may come tomorrow. At that time, Xiao Liu will beat around the Bush and ask her. I will also keep this in mind and think of a comprehensive plan, but the third sister must not know about it. "


    Liu''s whole body was excited for a while. He was shocked into a cold sweat and nodded quickly, "what Xiao Liu said is very true. It''s so good that mother can rest assured. "


    As they were talking, Xiao soul heard the voice of a little girl outside. When he went out, he immediately came in and said, "madam, miss six, someone came outside to send a message. The master asked madam and miss to go out to receive the message."


    The first lady was shocked and left immediately. "Xiao liu''er, I''ll change my clothes first."


    Zhuo Xi stood up and nodded, "mother, walk slowly."


    Xiao Li had come and said, "Miss, this way, please. Your court clothes and maidservants are ready."


    Zhuo Xi followed her back to her room, put on a big make-up of imperial clothes, and then went to the front yard. A incense table has been set up in the hospital, and crows are kneeling full of people. Her nominal father Wu Zhilian is the leader, followed by Mrs. Tai and Mrs. da. Wu Xing has no military position now and kneels behind him.


    The eunuch waiting on the side was also respectful and did not have the slightest impatience. It seemed that he was used to the late arrival of women''s family members with high grades and high orders to change their imperial clothes and make-up. This is a respect for Tianwei, and he can''t pick anything wrong. The protagonist has arrived in front of him. He quickly Gongshen motioned Zhuo Xi to come ahead.


    Zhuo Xi walked to the front and found that the futon left for her to kneel down was juxtaposed with Wu Zhilian. She was stunned for a moment, but the eunuch said, "please take Wu Yishi in place to receive the order."


    She had to kneel down beside Wu Zhilian and listen to the propaganda. I only heard the sharp voice read: "today, there are six daughters of the Wu family, Wen Liangxian Shu, de Jingshun Gong, who think they are a good match for Guang''an Hou, and the second grade of the book is Mrs. Guang''an Hou. They got married on March 26. All matters concerning the grand wedding are prepared by the governor of the inner government, and Wu Jiajin fully cooperates with the king''s order. Qin this. "


    "Thank king longen." Everyone said thank you with one word, but everyone had a different thought in his heart. Especially Wu Zhilian, he did not expect that the daughter he met by chance had such good fortune. The Wu family had a weak family background. Only by virtue of the recommendation of their classmates did they get a Qipin county magistrate. After more than ten years of hard work, they slowly rose to the position of zhengwupin Taipu temple. They never thought that they would be able to climb up to the king and nobles one day. Since the king has issued an explicit decree, the whole people of Kyoto will know, and the wedding is directly arranged by the inner government. It is really a supreme honor. Although he is only a five grade official, since the daughter is named after the daughter of the Wu family, the honor undoubtedly belongs to the Wu family. Thinking so, he had already thanked Eun with a smile on his face, got up and winked again. The housekeeper behind him stuffed a thank-you note into the eunuch''s sleeve. The eunuch also said congratulations with a smile on his face.


    At this time, I suddenly heard a sharp female voice shouting, "hahaha, Mrs. Guang''an Hou, I am the real Mrs. Guang''an Hou!" A woman with disheveled hair suddenly jumped at the eunuch''s feet and shouted, "my Lord, I''m Wu Yuan, I''m the real Wu Yuan, she''s fake! Please see! "


    Zhuo Xi was suddenly surprised. Is it really Wu Yuan? Is there really a Wu Yuan?


    Wu Zhilian looked at the housekeeper Zhou fiercely. The housekeeper Zhou was cold. He quickly winked and asked the two women to come forward and block the woman''s mouth.


    However, Wu Zhilian had no time to investigate, and quickly explained, "father-in-law he, this woman''s crazy words don''t have to be taken to heart."


    The eunuch shook the dust and said proudly, "it''s natural. Wu Yishi has come to the palace many times to say hello. I''ve seen it from a distance. How can I recognize the wrong person? Since it''s Lord Wu''s family business, I hope it''s handled properly. "


    "This woman bumped into her father-in-law. It''s really rude. Don''t pull it down quickly?" Wu Zhilian winked at Zhou Da''s housekeeper. Housekeeper Zhou knowingly stuffed a thick red seal.


    He Gonggong said with a smile, "well, I won''t bother Lord Wu to deal with family affairs. I''ll go back to the palace to reply."


    "Thank you, father-in-law. Take your time."


    After the eunuch left, Wu Zhilian coldly asked the two women kneeling at the bottom, grasping the woman with their strength, "what''s the matter?"


    The woman replied, "Sir, spare your life! Just now the steward ordered me to come to receive the order, but I didn''t notice for a moment... "


    Wu Zhilian kicked her, "I don''t pay attention to the house affairs on weekdays, so you are a slave and greatly deceive the Lord? You think I don''t know. You''re her nurse. Last time she escaped, she spared you. Now you want to do it again?! Madam, domestic slaves have repeatedly violated the Lord''s orders and almost brought disaster to the whole family. What should we do? " He aggravated the four words "disaster, even the whole family", and all the people under him trembled.

 Chapter 130

    "Go back to the master, fill it with oil and send it to Chuang Tzu." Liu Shi was even more an exciting spirit and came forward to reply. The throat was filled with oil so that they could not speak. If they were sent to Chuang Tzu, they would die in a few days.


    "Since you are deeply in love with your master and servant, you might as well go together!" He stared at the woman and said, then turned to the woman at the bottom, "haven''t you dealt with it yet After all, it''s about the house, and he doesn''t want to intervene any more.


    Mother Ann, the steward of the inner court, quickly asked someone to pull the woman and her son down.


    Unexpectedly, the woman took the opportunity to break free from the woman''s grip and rushed to Wu Zhilian''s feet, "no, no, father, I''m your own daughter! You can''t, you can''t... "


    Wu Zhilian kicked her away, and the woman next to her immediately rushed up to clamp her and block her mouth.


    Wu Zhilian whispered in her ear, "I told you to stay in the autumn wind hospital. If you were safe, you would be fine, but you are unwilling to be lonely. If you want to talk crazy, don''t you think your life is too long? If you want to die, go clean, but if you want to drag down the Wu family, it''s impossible. " As soon as he waved, the woman immediately dragged her down.


    "You don''t have to pay attention to this madwoman. I believe you can all make the right choice whether you want to ascend to heaven with your master''s chickens and dogs or break the nine families by causing trouble. If the house is safe, the whole family is safe. Do you all understand? " Wu Zhilian said with deep meaning.


    Everyone said in unison, "I see!"


    Wu Zhilian took a special look at Zhuo Xi and was very satisfied to see her calm face. If you are your own daughter, how can you have such grace and nature? But it doesn''t matter. He is the head of the family. Who can say no as long as he says yes? Who has any evidence to prove it?


    They scattered back to the house. Wu Zhilian also called Wu Xing to the study. He didn''t know what to talk about.


    The women went back to the inner courtyard.


    Zhuo Xi was holding the imperial edict in her hand and had a heavy heart. She hadn''t recovered for a moment. Was that woman really Wu Yuan? Didn''t you hurt her? Does aunt Zhou''s death have anything to do with this? And so the king decreed to marry? She knew that the Empress Dowager must have done something, but she was worried about her illness. When she was thinking, Mrs. Tai had come over, held Zhuo Xi''s hand and said with a smile, "Xiao liu''er, you are a natural person. Although you grew up in Chuang Tzu, your grandmother has been thinking of you. Now that you have a good home, grandma is really happy for you. " Then she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "but the housewife is different from the waiter who serves the Lord. There are more rules. The Guang''an Marquis house is a high gate of the royal family. I''m afraid there will be educated mothers in the palace these days. Xiao liuer, you''d better get ready as soon as possible. "


    "Yes, thank you for your advice." Zhuo Xifu is blessed. It seems that they will never mention the woman just now.


    Mrs. Tai continued to say to Liu, "a few days ago, she talked about the uncertain days. Unexpectedly, she said she would marry. It''s only less than a month now, Liu Shi. We should hurry up to prepare our dowry. Although it is supported by the inner government, our Wu family is the intention of the Wu family, so we can''t let anyone talk about it! "


    Liu Shi said, "daughter-in-law, do as you please."


    Zhuo Xi asked with an imperial edict, "grandma, mother and little six''s marriage will bother you both. Xiao liu''er hasn''t been to the small Buddha Hall. He''s afraid of bumping into his ancestors. He still has to bother his grandmother to offer this edict to the small Buddha Hall for Xiao liu''er, okay? "


    "Xiao liu''er, the last time the Empress Dowager''s edict was received for you because you weren''t there. Since you personally received the edict, you will be free. If you want to know under the spring of your ancestors, you must be comforted." The old lady said with a smile.


    Liu stepped forward and said, "exactly. The old lady must be tired today. Why don''t you let her daughter-in-law take Xiao liu''er to a small Buddhist hall to tell her ancestors? "


    "Go, go, ha ha. You can''t be wrong with you. " Mrs. Tai said with a smile. It''s also quite proper for the legitimate mother to take a noble and ordinary woman of grade to tell her ancestors.


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    Zhuo Xi took Xiao soul and Xiao Li all the way to follow Liu for a quarter of an hour before reaching the small Buddhist hall surrounded by the fragrance of Buddha.


    Liu was the head of the family. She followed the rules and procedures meticulously, took Zhuo Xi once, and finally enshrined the imperial edict in the center of the ancestral tablet. The Empress Dowager''s Yi decree originally enshrined there was moved aside.


    Zhuo Xi respectfully saluted, got up and asked Liu in a low voice, "mother, although the Empress Dowager''s order is for Xiao liu''er, Xiao liu''er has no chance to see it. I don''t know if I can..."


    Yi Zhi was originally given to Zhuo Xi. Now she asked for a view. Liu naturally had no reason to object, so he nodded, held a salute, took down Yi Zhi and handed it to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi respectfully held the Yizhi, solemnly opened it and read it carefully. Except that the day was not fixed, the rest was similar to the imperial edict. However, the last date she noticed was the tenth day of the first month.


    After reading it, she couldn''t think carefully, so she respectfully returned Yizhi to Liu and worshipped it on the stage again.


    Liu respectfully saluted again and took Zhuo Xi out of the small Buddhist hall.


    Zhuo Xi walked by Liu''s side and said softly, "mother, now Xiao liu''er is the daughter of the Wu family to be married. Naturally, she and the Wu family are both prosperous and lossy. Do you think so?"


    Liu''s heart trembled, picked his eyebrow and looked at Zhuo Xi. He saw that she was still motionless on her face and sighed secretly. As expected, she was the woman favored by the Marquis of Guang''an. She was so calm that she was afraid that the honor and disgrace of the Wu family in the future could not be separated from this woman anymore. Thinking of this, he sighed and said, "don''t worry, I understand that there will be an explanation to you these two days."


    Zhuo Xi saw that she had misunderstood her meaning, so she simply picked it out and said, "no, my mother misunderstood. Xiao liuer just wanted to know the truth."


    Liu looked at her in surprise. "The truth you said is...?" Doesn''t she know whether she is true or false?


    Zhuo Xi smiled bitterly and said frankly, "mother, when my eldest brother took me home, he didn''t tell me that I borrowed..." She emphasized borrowing words. She always thought that her identity was fabricated. She really didn''t think that Wu Xing replaced her as his real six younger sister.


    Liu suddenly thought about it and said to Zhuo Xi, "Xiao liu''er, it''s good that you have been raised in Chuang Tzu since childhood, because there are some relatives and friends among our relatives that you don''t know. This cousin is the cousin of aunt Zhou''s mother''s family in our house. She came to Dingzhou last month and is quite close to Aunt Zhou. Unfortunately, she was shocked to see Aunt Zhou fall into the lake a few days ago, Since then, he has been crazy. He often thinks of himself as aunt Zhou''s daughter. Don''t care too much. Tomorrow I will send someone to take her to Chuang Tzu to recuperate. " It''s just a concubine''s daughter. Where can it be compared with the "daughter" who can bring glory and light to the Wu family?


    Zhuo Xi sighed and knew that things were far from that simple, but since she had made a decision on this matter, she had no right to speak.


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    Back in the moon setting courtyard, mother Wu had been waiting in the courtyard. She greeted her with joy, "madam, the old slave congratulated her. The old slave finally equals this day. It''s really the first imperial concubine Ru. If she knows underground, she can feel at ease. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with a smile, "mother Wu said auspiciously. I think mother Wu will be busy in the future. She still has to work hard, mother Wu."


    Mother Wu smiled, "I don''t know how long I''ve been looking forward to this day. No matter how hard or tired it is, it''s sweet."


    Zhuo Xi also said with a smile, "then mother Wu and mother Wang can go back to Hou''s house to prepare first. I can do it at Wu''s house."


    Mother Wu said, "no, I have discussed with mother Wang. She stays in the house to take care of it. I''ll go back to Hou''s house to make some preparations."


    "So good."


    "However, before leaving, the old slave has one more thing to tell."


    Zhuo Xi sat in front of the table and nodded.


    Mother Wu poured a glass of water in front of Zhuo Xi and said, "the old slave secretly inquired in the house these days. This week, my aunt used to be the dowry maid of Mrs. Liu. When Liu was pregnant with two young masters, she was sent to Lord Wu''s bed and opened her face. She was not promoted as my aunt until she gave birth to a daughter. She had been living in Qiufeng courtyard before and was quiet. Although she was not favored in front of Lord Wu, because she was the wife''s dowry maid, the wife treated her well and often served Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Wu, which they liked very much. But somehow I heard that she was suffering from hysteria and was grounded in the autumn wind hospital. More than ten days before she stumbled, I heard that she had a distant cousin niece thousands of miles to find her. Mrs. Tai also specially called her for questioning. Seeing that she was still sober, she allowed her cousin to live in the autumn wind courtyard, which not only showed the charity of the Wu family, but also made it convenient for her cousin to serve the disease nearby. Just listen to the mother-in-law who is guarding the autumn wind yard that her aunt''s foot ban has not been solved this week, but the niece received the above order and was banned on the day she lived in. Later, I heard that Aunt Zhou slipped and fell into the pond at night, and the niece began to talk crazy. "


    "I think this so-called Miss watch is really miss six. I thought that Wu Xing regarded me as the sixth younger sister, but he just made it up out of thin air. I didn''t expect that there was a real person. " So that day he sent his wealth documents to Hou''s house so quickly. He only blamed himself for his carelessness and didn''t pay attention to the details behind it.


    Zhuo Xi could not bear it, but mother Wu was an insider and continued, "I thought my wife lived here as miss six. I think Lord Wu and young master Wu Xing must have handled the women and maids who went to pick up miss six. There should be no accident. Unexpectedly, the six young ladies came to the door themselves. "


    "Mother knows why the six young ladies were sent to Chuang Tzu to rest?"


    "It was said that the sixth young lady had a serious illness when she was two years old, and then the second young master got sick soon. After seeing many doctors, they didn''t get better. Someone said that it might be evil. So the Wu family invited a Taoist to drive away evil spirits in the house. The Taoist priest asserted that the six young ladies and the two young masters were mutually exclusive and could not be raised in the house until they were 13 years old. The Wu family sent the six young ladies to a village in the suburbs. The Wu family originally lived in Heze, Shandong Province. Later, when the family moved to Kyoto, they took Miss Liu quietly with them, and specially set up a Chuang Tzu outside Kyoto to live for her. I think last year, when my wife arrived at the Wu family, maybe it was when they sent someone to pick up Miss Liu. "


    "Therefore, although the female family members of the Wu family have not seen the six young ladies for more than ten years, they will not recognize them. But there is only one exception. " Zhuo Xi hissed.


    Mother Wu nodded. "It''s true. Aunt Zhou is concerned about her own daughter. Why don''t she often go quietly to visit her? I must have known her, so when you moved into the Wu family, someone in the Wu family decided to keep her in the autumn wind courtyard. "


    "Since a young lady has come all the way to serve her, it must be Mrs. Tai who can decide." Zhuo Xi inferred.


    Mother Wu shook her head, "according to Cai Nu, Mrs. Tai didn''t know about it. It was only when the sixth young lady arrived at the Wu family that she learned the truth. "


    "Oh? What happened that day? " Zhuo Xi suddenly thought that when the woman said "I''m the real Wu Yuan" today, the people below didn''t show surprise. There are only two possibilities, one is that everyone knows it, and the other is that everyone has heard it or even got used to it. According to the Wu family''s style, the second is more likely.


    Mother Wu continued, "according to those women, on that day, miss six was alone and dusty. When she came to the Wu family, she shouted that she was miss six of the Wu family and wanted to see Aunt Zhou, so that the whole family knew. Then someone took her to see Mrs. Tai. At that time, the lady was also in Mrs. Tai''s room. Seeing that she had a secret conversation with Mrs. Tai in the inner room for a moment, she declared that she was the sixth cousin niece of aunt Zhou''s mother''s family and came to serve her illness. Then he sent someone to send her to the autumn wind court. "


    Zhuo Xi thought through this joint, "so when Wu Xing came back and heard about it, he invited the Empress Dowager''s Yi intention out?"


    Mother Wu then said suspiciously, "exactly. It''s said that only a few masters were present when Yizhi invited him out. Somehow the wind spread to Qiufeng courtyard. It would have been better for Aunt Zhou to stay in the autumn wind courtyard. It is estimated that Aunt Zhou will be able to recover her original life after the Marquis marries you. The six young ladies may change their identity as a watch Lady, or they can say a good family. Maybe if Mrs. Tai and Mrs. pity her, they can give her more dowry. Unexpectedly, after they got the news, they shouted in the yard all the time, saying that she was the real Mrs. Guang''an Hou. They heard the maid trembling. When the lady knew, she sent a few bowls of soup and medicine, and she didn''t have the strength to scream. She somehow ran out again today. I''m afraid this time, she''s more or less unlucky. "


    Zhuo Xi pondered for a moment and called Xiao Li, "go and see if the young master is free? If you are free, ask him to come over. "

 Chapter 131

    "Promise." Xiao Li didn''t wake up from the huge surprise and went away happily.


    Mother Wu then said, "I don''t know when the Empress Dowager issued this decree. Why is it hidden in the eldest young master of Wu Xing? Even the old slave did not know the existence of this purpose. "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment, "it must be that the Marquis has asked the Empress Dowager for an order to hide in the Wu family. He asked you to keep me until March 3. Didn''t he just decide to surprise me? " Who knows, she was neither left, nor did Yizhi appear at the node she didn''t expect, which didn''t achieve the effect of surprise and joy.


    However, when did Jing Yuan ask the Empress Dowager for a marriage decree? She remembered that she saw the date on the Yizhi, the tenth day of the first month, that is... A red glow suddenly flew on her face.


    Mother Wu nodded with a smile. "What madam said is very true. It must be the surprise that the Marquis is going to give you."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "I''m afraid it''s not just this surprise? Mother Wu, the truth has come out now. You don''t have anything to hide from me? "


    Mother Wu also smiled, "Madam Mingcha. In fact, madam should have guessed that the Marquis wanted to keep you until March 3, that is, let the old slave secretly prepare the wedding ceremony between the Marquis and you, only until March 3. Later, you forcibly went to Liangzhou. Naturally, the old slave wanted to write to the Marquis to apologize. The old slave of the hasty wedding in Liangzhou has also heard of it. Fortunately, there is no ceremony, not to mention whether the hasty preparation of the wedding is appropriate. It can only be said once, otherwise, it will not be a second marriage? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled forward and backward. Did the word "second marriage" appear so early?


    After laughing, mother Wu said, "madam, the old slave has finished reporting. I''m leaving now. As soon as I go, I guess I won''t be able to meet my relatives until the 26th of next month. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and watched her go out.


    Soon Xiao Li came and reported, "Miss, the young master is coming."


    Zhuo Xi gave a "um" and soon saw Wu Xing come in in a homely gown.


    Zhuo Xi came forward to see a half gift and apologized, "brother, Xiao Liu has caused you great trouble." It''s just that Liu Yuan doesn''t know that he is important to her. Although he doesn''t know that he is always given a different look, he still has a different look to her.


    Wu Xing coughed softly, "you are so knowledgeable and polite that you are completely different from what I saw you for the first time."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "don''t laugh at me, brother. The relationship between people comes out on weekdays. Although I get along with Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Tai soon, they treat me very well after I come. Brother, you too. I really don''t know that you really have a six younger sister in your family. I can''t bear to see her like this today. I just hope she can get better slowly and have a good home in the future. " Although her interests intersect with those of the Wu family, the other party has indeed paid a price. She should also strive to minimize the damage to the other party.


    Wu Xing said coldly, "originally, they could all live a normal life after a few more days. The sixth girl will also get some compensation. If she is willing to change her name, will my Wu family treat her badly? Who knows she''s a big hearted woman. "


    Zhuo Xi understood, "it''s human nature to get lost in front of prosperity. Maybe she can figure it out in a while. Brother, I hope you can persuade me in front of my father not to cause greater sin. "


    Wu Xing said sadly, "my father said that keeping her is always a disaster. My sister is kind-hearted, and Wu Xing is kind-hearted. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "brother, what do you mean..."


    Wu Xing nodded and replied, "you guessed well. It''s too late."


    Zhuo Xi suffered for a while. One life was given up like this. No, plus last week''s aunt, it was two lives. How innocent they are.


    Wu Xingwen comforted, "don''t blame yourself, sister. Compared with the lives of more than 100 people in the Wu family, she also deserved to die." It''s related to the five families. If you don''t eliminate this scourge one day, you won''t feel at ease one day. In the final analysis, it''s just a concubine I''ve never seen. Since I''ve never seen her, who does it matter? What''s more, this sister is about to become a noble second grade Mrs. Guang''an Hou. No one can make other choices.


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "brother, since then, our two families have a common wealth with life and death." When the Wu family threw a peach, she naturally wanted to repay the plum. Moreover, she knew that Jing Yuan valued Wu Xing and would be reused in the future. It was not an empty statement to be rich and noble together.


    Wu Xing was obviously overjoyed. "The Wu family should remember what my sister said!"


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    Early the next morning, with the help of Xiao Li and Xiao soul, Zhuo Xi put on a large make-up of imperial clothes and went into the palace in a carriage. Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Liu smiled at the door and watched Zhuo Xi''s carriage go away.


    After entering the palace gate, the palace people went in with the special festival symbol for female officials and reported it. It was about an hour and a half until the palace people came out to announce their interview. Zhuo Xi straightened his skirt and motioned Xiao soul to enter Bai''an palace with the gift box prepared in the carriage.


    Queen sun Yao was sitting in the main hall of Bai''an palace with makeup. After Zhuo Xi made a big worship ceremony, she motioned her to straighten up and give her a seat.


    Zhuo Xi thanked en and didn''t get up immediately. She motioned Xiao soul to hold the brocade box and bowed down and said, "madam, the king and queen Ender will never forget. The little girl specially prepared a small gift. I hope my mother will accept it. "


    Sun Yao knows that when Zhuo Xi is called "little girl", she doesn''t talk to her as a servant of the Hou family or a future madam Hou. It is mostly related to the Feiyu drunk Yuxuan. She motioned the palace people to take a look and opened the brocade box. It turned out that there were documents such as the house deed, the original account book and the deed of sale of all female craftsmen in Kyoto. As like as two peas, she had already received half of the shares burst with joy, and she had received copies of her account last year. She turned over and saw that the original copy of the previous year was exactly the same as the copy. She also saw a copy of this year''s account book. She knew she was going to give it to herself, and then looked at the turnover in the first few months of this year. But she still said with her normal face, "Miss Zhuo Xi has a heart. This ceremony is very happy for the palace."


    Zhuo Xi smiled happily. Then he stood up and sat in front of the seat given by the empress Wang. "If your mother likes it, it''s good. In this way, the little girl will feel at ease. " Feiyu Zuoyu Xuan is her first property here. She was not willing to give it all to others, but Feiyu Zuoyu Xuan had the intervention of the queen at the beginning, and she was ready to give in one day.


    Sun Yao continued, "it has been more than two months since the girl left Beijing last time. I don''t know what you said about the semicolon of Dingzhou''s three counties. How is the preparation? "


    Zhuo Xi was not surprised. He sent Xianglan to set up a semicolon in the three counties of Dingzhou. Naturally, she didn''t want to hide it from the queen. She smiled and replied, "don''t worry, my lady. At the beginning, my daughter promised that all the semicolons in Feiyu Zui Yuxuan had half of her shares, and my daughter will do what she said. Now that the three state semicolons have just started, they have just selected the store site to buy real estate and buy female workers and craftsmen. Although the title deed is temporarily in the hands of the little woman, it will take time for the trainers to prepare for the opening and reserve goods. As long as there is a slight improvement, the little girl will come and report back to her mother on the opening day. It has not opened in the past two months, and the cost has spent 40% of the operating revenue of Kyoto, but according to the sales situation of Kyoto, the cost should be recovered within six months. " It means that she has all the house deeds that have cost so much money. If she has any accident, maybe it will break up in one shot.


    Sure enough, seeing sun Yao''s face change a little, he said slowly, "forty percent is really a lot. This palace naturally believes in you. The wedding date is only one month away. Although everything has been prepared by the inner government, if the Wu family is short of anything or can''t catch up with it, if the palace can help, please don''t be polite. "


    Zhuo Xi thanked, "thank you for your love. The marriage has its own inner house and grandmother''s mother. The little girl doesn''t lack anything."


    After chatting for a while, Zhuo Xi retired from Bai''an palace.


    Then she went to Ci''an palace in good faith.


    Mother Su, who had been waiting at the door, immediately welcomed Zhuo Xi. The Empress Dowager half leaned on the bed and looked in good spirits.


    Zhuo Xi also made a big bow and said thank you.


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "girl Xi, get up quickly. Give me a seat. "


    "Thank you, Empress Dowager."


    "Ai Jia really looks forward to the day when you change your mouth."


    Zhuo Xi showed a trace of shame on her face. She didn''t answer. She sat down on the small stool, moved the small stool to the bed, and looked over her head. "My mother''s spirit is quite good. There''s no blood now. Can you stretch out your tongue to Xi''er?" Shane is second and more important is visiting.


    The Empress Dowager stretched out her tongue to let her see. Zhuo Xi looked at it, carefully explored the pulse for the empress dowager, asked about the situation of the Empress Dowager taking the medicine she prescribed three days ago, and combined with the situation Hong Quan told her before, she basically had an understanding of the Empress Dowager''s body. Looking up, she saw the Empress Dowager and mammy Su looking at themselves with eager eyes, smiling and saying, "madam, rest assured that the eggs have hatched into worms. It is a rare Schistosoma japonicum. Although this worm is rare, it is not difficult to cure it. I''ll start with a prescription today. My mother will have abdominal pain like wringing after taking clothes. Will my mother be afraid of pain? " She asked mischievously.


    As a result, the tension between the Empress Dowager and mammy Su immediately eased. The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "don''t you think I''m a three-year-old child?"


    Mother Su breathed a sigh of relief, put down her hanging heart, and quickly motioned the little maid to hold pen and ink.


    Zhuo Xi took up her pen and considered it for a long time before she wrote the prescription and handed it to mother Su, but there were three.


    "Mother Su, do you have a way to get medicine from the imperial hospital in the name of three different masters in the palace?" Outsiders can''t bring soup medicine easily when entering the palace, so they can only find a way in the palace.


    The Empress Dowager and mammy Su immediately understood that the prescription could not disturb the people in the hospital. Mammy Su nodded, "it''s easy."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and, in order to protect Wanyi, said again, "that''ll trouble Mother su. I brought a new recipe for snacks today, but I want to learn from sister Wang Meimei and borrow her mother''s small kitchen to make a meal. "


    The Empress Dowager winked at mother Su, who immediately went down to do it.


    When Zhuo Xi brought out a cage of crystal shrimp dumplings from the small kitchen, Wang Meimei happened to come to greet the Empress Dowager. When she saw the snacks in Zhuo Xi''s hand, her eyes smiled, "Yo, I said I saw magpies chirping and yelling this morning. It turned out to be a blessing in the mouth. Empress dowager, lin''er is going to be exposed. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "you don''t have less filial piety to the mourning family. How can you be less today?"


    Hahaha, several people laughed for a while, tasted shrimp dumplings, and discussed eating for a while. Mammy Su came with a basket of Chinese medicine bags.


    Zhuo Xi stood up and did not avoid beauty Wang. She examined every kind of herbal medicine, took the herbal medicine as needed, fried it in the small kitchen and took it for the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager took the medicine and returned to the bedroom. Mammy Su carefully helped her lie down.


    Mother Su put down the curtain and came out, "beauty Wang, Miss Zhuo Xi, why don''t you two go back first? If anything happens to the empress dowager, the old slave will send someone to report it immediately. "


    Beauty Wang said, "mammy Su, the Empress Dowager is as kind to me as a mountain. Do I have the honor to serve the Empress Dowager?"


    Zhuo Xi also nodded and said, "after the Empress Dowager took the medicine, about a column of incense will start to have abdominal pain like a twist. Mammy, you''d better let Xi''er stay here. If the Empress Dowager has any other discomfort, Xi''er may also be able to help."


    Mother Su saluted, "let the old slave go and report to the Empress Dowager."


    After a while, Mammy Su came out, "the Empress Dowager agreed that the two masters should stay." She nodded when she saw the second order, and hurriedly said, "the old slave went in to guard the Empress Dowager. Please feel free to Wang Meimei and miss Zhuo Xi." She motioned to the little maid in waiting to serve tea to the two. Then she turned and entered the Empress Dowager''s bedroom.


    Zhuo Xi sat down and made a cold noise with beauty Wang. After a while, she heard mammy Su shouting nervously in the inner room: "madam, madam, how are you?"


    There was a faint groan in the inner room.


    Wang Meimei stood up and looked in nervously. After a while, she turned back and asked zhuoxi, "girl, is the Empress Dowager all right?"


    Zhuo Xi took a sip of tea and said calmly, "well, the medicine has been taken. The Schistosoma in her mother''s belly is going to be dying. Therefore, the Empress Dowager will suffer some minor sins."


    Just then, mother Su ran out and asked nervously, "girl, the Empress Dowager has rolled on the bed in pain. Girl, doesn''t it matter?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "Mammy, don''t worry. Just get ready for the toilet. If it goes well, it will hurt a column of incense. Let me know if you have any other symptoms. "


    Mammy Su nodded and hurried in again.


    After a long time, mother Su came out and told her, "beauty, girl, the Empress Dowager really shed a lot of insects. Now she is very tired and sleeps."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "Mammy, can I take her pulse again and see if I can continue to use medicine tomorrow?"


    Mammy nodded. "It should be, girl."


    Zhuo Xi followed her in and took the pulse for the Empress Dowager. Because she was afraid that it was not allowed to take the pulse for the first time, she didn''t dare to prescribe medicine indiscriminately. She only carefully wrote down the pulse, prepared to go back and confirm with Hong Quan, and came out.


    "Mammy, the Empress Dowager is weak and needs a good rest. It''s poisonous. I''m afraid it''s too ferocious. It''s best to have an appropriate diet prescription. On the one hand, it''s suitable for the mother''s weak spleen and stomach, and on the other hand, it''s easy to digest and absorb. I need to go back and think about it. I''ll send the prescription again tomorrow. "


    At this time, mother Su felt a sigh of relief. "Thank you, girl."


    "Mammy, shall I stay here tonight to serve my mother?" Beauty Wang came forward and said.


    Mother Su shook her head. "You''d better go back at about 2:15 Shenshi as usual. Don''t make people suspicious. It''s Mrs. Qin''s side. You have to make a good apology. "


    Beauty Wang understood, thought and nodded.

 Chapter 133

    Although he never said it, she knew it was always dangerous for him. Although he sneaked in quietly, how many spies were lurking here? It may be the king''s, it may be the crown prince, and it may be the sect leader. She never asked about his grudges with the king, and he never said it. From the first time she saw the confrontation in cangcui mountain, she knew that Jing Yuan had long known that the person to deal with him was his brother, the current king, and the crown prince was just a sword in the king''s hand. However, the iron smelting technology and weapon drawings she presented can only let the king put down his personal gratitude and resentment temporarily. Once the authority gets what he wants, the temporarily hidden teeth will be exposed again. The Empress Dowager''s illness may be a bureau that called him back to Beijing, but they didn''t expect that Jing Yuan would get the news in advance and come back secretly. If so, that man is too cruel. She could not help shivering.


    Suddenly her stomach warmed, a big hand pressed on her lower abdomen and wrapped her little hand inside.


    A soft voice sounded on her shoulder, "cold?"


    She closed her eyes and rubbed her face on his forehead. "Well", she didn''t speak.


    He didn''t speak either. It took him a long time to spit out three words, "I''m sorry."


    "Eh? Why? " She looked at him curiously.


    "A lot of things. I don''t think I''m doing well enough. " For example, she didn''t give her the freedom she wanted, for example, because she was poisoned, and for example, the child who had no chance to know. Jing Yuan murmured, "I was going to live a life in Liangzhou with only two of us. Who ever wanted to return to Kyoto." Liangzhou was once the place of freedom he imagined, where she could give full play and do whatever she wanted. He has prepared resources, shops and manpower for her. He even asked Kou Niang to transport all her money to Liangzhou. He sincerely hoped that she could take root in Liangzhou and never return to Kyoto. Anyway, she and the Wu family are not serious relatives. The Wu family has a way to compensate him in the court. What''s more, with the Empress Dowager''s wedding decree in hand, even if they get married in Liangzhou, can the king cure him for bullying the king? However, what he didn''t expect was that Jingtai came up with a drastic move.


    She patted his hand. "I know." She knew the two irreparable wounds left in the bottom of his heart when his biological parents died. How could she watch him talk very nervous at the moment before his experience, and at the moment after that, Wu Xing was even funny. She heard the old lady and Liu laughing, and Zhuo Xi blushed with shame.


    "Brother, don''t laugh at me! Or let your mother marry a sister-in-law for you and take care of your mouth! "


    The old lady also said, "yes, yes, pansy Yu is not young. I''ve been waiting for my grandson for too long."


    Liu Shi also thought of this, "mother, I have selected several candidates, waiting for pansy Yu to see each other. When I finish my big wedding, I will arrange to see each other. "


    Wu Xing smiled, "it''s all up to his mother. It''s important to discuss the marriage of six younger sisters first. "


    Liu returned to the topic, looked lovingly at Zhuo Xi and asked, "I heard that mother Wu has returned to Hou''s house to prepare for her wedding? Did she send a letter? "


    Zhuo Xi knew that what she asked was the size of the Marquis she mentioned last time. Now that Jing Yuan has not returned to Kyoto, naturally, the administrator of the main hospital can only provide the latest size to prepare. Only after Jing Yuan comes back can he measure accurately, can he minor repair the size of his clothes. She lowered her head slightly and motioned for Xiao Li to follow behind her. Xiao Li presented an envelope cleverly.


    Zhuo Xi said, "this is the new dress size for the new year. I have to bother my mother to let the sewing room prepare first. Xiao liu''er didn''t know much about sewing since he was a child. His mother has to worry about it. "


    "It''s natural. Your mother will remind you when you need to move the needle and thread." Liu smiled. Although the bride has to be a novice to sew brocade quilt pillowcases, clothes, trousers, shoes and socks before the wedding, how many of the ladies of the family sew and embroider all by themselves? It''s all for the help of the embroidery women at home. At the key position, the bride sews a few stitches to show her meaning.


    Zhuo Xi sat for a while again. After listening to Liu and the old lady discuss the list of guests for the banquet that day, she also left.

 Chapter 134

    In the afternoon, Zhuo Xi still went to sanxiangfang in the carriage of Zhu Lun, discussed the Empress Dowager''s pulse with Dr. Hong Quan, carefully understood the Empress Dowager''s background, considered a medicated diet prescription and gave it to Ke min, and used the equipment and raw materials in the health hall to take some pills according to the idea last night, which were also given to Ke min. Finally, he returned to Wu''s house the same way.


    When he returned to the Wu family, Liu still sent people to send a stack of worship stickers and gift lists. Zhuo Xizhao turned them over. Few people knew him, but he still asked people to send them back to Liu''s hand, and entrusted Liu to help receive visitors. All the gifts were sent into the public warehouse. Until this time, she felt that the marriage had a little sense of reality, and really began to feel the complex human relations of high-ranking families. She has no experience in these things, but fortunately, few of these people know each other. She just needs to hand them over to Liu. Liu Shi asked someone to send it to her for a look, but also respected her and gave her a number in her heart.


    But today she received a special famous post - Luo Yuan Xiaojun Ji. When she saw it, she quickly picked up her pen and posted it back to her. She made an appointment to meet the next day.


    When Luoyuan Xiaojun Ji came, huhuhuzha sent a pile of congratulatory gifts. It took less than half an hour to move the box alone. Zhuo Xi took the gift list in her hand and felt very heavy. She said with a stiff smile to Xiaojun Ji, who was still directing his servants to move things, "Xiaojun Ji, are you going to break our Wu family treasury?"


    Luo Yuan smiled and took her hand and said, "sister Zhuo Xi, I fell in love with you at first sight. You saved my life. Such a great opportunity to repay kindness is in front of me. I can''t do it if I don''t seize it! "


    Zhuo Xi said honestly, "after all, you saved you last time because you suffered for me. How dare I pretend to be kind? It''s my great face for Xiaojun Ji to come and have a wedding wine on the wedding day. How can I afford such a heavy gift? "


    Luo Yuan said with a smile, "you will be my sister-in-law in the future. I will come for the wedding wine naturally. As for the gift, are you afraid you won''t have a chance to return it in the future? "


    Zhuo Xi chuckled and joked, "then I have to study the value of this gift list to avoid making jokes in the future."


    Luo Yuan laughed, "you will be Mrs. Hou in the future. If you become a cousin''s home, don''t be as stingy as him!"


    "Eh? Is your cousin usually stingy? " Why doesn''t she know?


    Luo Yuan walked to the inner room with Zhuo Xi and said with a slight smile, "he is stingy. When he paid new year''s greetings to him last year, he took a fancy to a white jade on his waist and asked him to give it to me. He won''t give it to me..."


    The news of Luo Yuan''s Xiaojun Ji''s visit to Zhuo Xi spread all over the honor and honor circles in Kyoto overnight. Liu was surprised to find that the grade of his wife has been greatly improved from the second day, which made her and Mrs. Tai feel very decent. In the process of greeting and talking with the ladies, Liu suddenly had some expectations for his daughter''s marriage. Bow your head to marry a daughter-in-law and raise your head to marry a daughter. The Wu family recently moved to Kyoto. They didn''t have time to gain a firm foothold in Kyoto. Apart from a few colleagues and wives who make friends with their masters on weekdays, where did they get to know so many ladies of the noble family? However, this marriage is different. The Wu family has a Hou lady, and her first mother can slowly integrate into this noble circle. At least there is a lot of room for choice, not to mention climbing up the king''s relatives and relatives. In the future, the master may walk towards the hall more smoothly. What this common woman can bring to the Wu family is not only glory and wealth, but also the future and aftershade of the family. She could not help but rejoice that she had ruthlessly removed aunt Zhou and her careless daughter. If not, how can the Wu family be today?


    However, she frowned again at the thought of her daughter''s marriage. Let''s go over the difficult pass in front of us first. I don''t know what will happen on March 13?


    Soon it was March 13. In the past few days, people from the government came to join the Wu family and discussed the Nagina levy and other relevant details. Because the Emperor gave the marriage, even the application period was exempted. Therefore, the marriage of the two families basically came to an end in the part that both sides need to discuss and jointly prepare, and the rest is to prepare separately. There are only more than ten days left from March 26, so early in the morning of March 13, someone in the palace reported that they would bring the bride price when they choose auspicious times today.


    Early in the morning, Liu took the maid, mother-in-law and son-in-law to stand in a full courtyard, waiting to receive the bride price from the inner house.


    A whole hundred and twenty-four dowries were moved from the palace to the Wu family.


    The humble little Wu family, who had only two houses in zhongjiufang, suddenly became the center of the neighborhood''s neighbors, sighing and admiring one after another. Not only Liu, who was checking the gift list, but even Wu Zhilian, who was reserved in his study, couldn''t help listening to these praises. He couldn''t help but be distracted and couldn''t read the book in his hand any more. Like Liu, Zhuo Xi didn''t feel the impact of his marriage on the Wu family for the first time, nor did he seriously think about the lasting changes that might happen in the future. Therefore, he was not only happy to see his success and Yu Youyan, but also encouraged Liu Shi to tend to the courtiers'' families who made friends with the Duke of Guang''an when drawing up the banquet list. This bit by bit can be capital after saving.


    When the eunuch who sang the gift list finally reported the gift list, Liu smiled and asked him and a group of eunuch maids to take a rest in the side room, drink tea and eat snacks.


    Liu smiled and let people watch the 124 wedding gifts. He quickly invited the Empress Dowager to distribute the wedding cakes specially given by the wedding gifts to everyone, even the eunuch and maid in waiting in the ear room.


    At the moment of application for time, a group of eunuchs and maids who had had a good rest went out of the Wu family and returned to the palace with the red seal quietly stuffed by Liu.


    The next day, all the eunuchs and maids in the palace had abdominal pain and fever. The imperial medical department originally disdained to see eunuchs and maids, but some Palace officials reported that more than 10 people were ill. The imperial medical department began to pay attention to it because it suspected that it was an epidemic. When I asked, I found out that these people came back to the palace after sending the bride price to the Wu family the day before yesterday. The imperial medical department didn''t dare to hide it. It reported to the queen sun Yao overnight.


    Sun Yao sent Mammy to Wu''s house for questioning. Unexpectedly, when mammy came to the Wu family, she found that all the members of the Wu family were ill in bed. When she asked, she knew that she had eaten something bad yesterday. It was estimated that she would have a rest for two days.


    Mammy went back to the palace and told the queen the truth. There were only a few palace maids and eunuchs. Sun Yaoming put the matter aside and stopped asking about it. What she needs to pay attention to now is the palace election in two days. The time of seeing each other was fixed in February, but the wedding date given by the king was temporarily fixed. Although these two events were crowded together, the good thing is that the time is staggered, that is, the family seems busy.


    On the day of seeing each other, the neifu newspaper said that a daughter of the Liang family in Hedong fell into the river a few days ago and was unable to come because she had scraped two skins on her face; Then the two daughters of the Wu family had a bad stomach and were ill in bed a few days ago. Sun yaocai remembered the condition of the more than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs, and asked someone about the situation. He said that they had been suffering from diarrhea and fever for many days. Although they took the medicine sent by the Wu family, their condition was alleviated, they were still weak and haggard. After thinking about it, she had to let people take a look at Wu''s house so as not to miss the wedding date.


    It took a whole day to choose seven women and two daughters-in-law. She and Mrs. Qin were very tired. Back to Bai''an palace, the mammy who came back from the Wu family said that the Wu family had just found out the source of the poison. It turned out that the bean paste stuffing contained in the wedding cake that day collided with the tea they drank that day, which led to diarrhea and fever. Now they are taking the antidote and slowly recover. It doesn''t seem to miss the big event on the wedding day. She also breathed a sigh of relief and began to seriously think about the great event on March 20.


    After seeing the mammy from the palace leave with satisfaction, Liu turned and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. The soldiers made dangerous moves. She made a dangerous move with the lives of the whole family. Naturally, it was cold sweat.


    She remembered her conversation with zhuoxi that day.


    On that day, Zhuo Xi had just left the old lady''s house, and Liu''s back foot followed.


    Zhuo Xi knew what she was going to ask.


    Not only did the Wu family spend money on their wedding, but also Liu did his best. It''s rare for Liu to ask her for help in this matter. She naturally wanted to give advice. She whispered, "mother, are you determined not to let the third sister enter the palace?"


    Liu nodded. "I''ve thought about it. Jiao''er has been spoiled by me since childhood. She has a temper that is difficult to control. She''s afraid it''s difficult to handle even if she doesn''t mention the inner courtyard of the palace. I don''t hold much hope for her marriage, but it''s OK to have a family of ordinary officials with a rich family background and be able to marry husband and wife. "


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t say anything about the marriage, so she said, "mother, what day is the third sister going to the palace to see each other?"


    Liu''s face was gloomy. "March 16, that is, after the seventh."


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "mother, on March 13, you let the third sister and the fifth sister come to my house. I''ll treat them to good scented tea. "


    Liu Shi knew that she had made up her mind and smiled.


    "However, this may involve the whole inner yard. Mother, you should be prepared first. Especially the old lady is old and weak, please take good care of the old lady''s yard."


    Liu was suspicious, "what do you mean..."


    Zhuo Xi whispered, "if the two sisters of the Wu family are both ill in bed on the day they enter the palace, it''s easy to arouse suspicion, but what if the whole family falls ill?"


    Liu suddenly, first a joy, "so no one can be picky." Then he was surprised, "but in this way, will people suspect what epidemic it is?"


    "Naturally, it won''t be an epidemic, it''s just food poisoning."


    "Poisoning?" Liu Shi was surprised again.


    "Don''t worry, mother. Xiao liu''er has his own arrangements. But on the father''s side and the eldest brother''s side, please explain to them that you should not be too frightened. "


    Liu nodded and looked at her far-reaching. It''s like risking the lives of the whole Wu family. Is it too risky?


    Zhuo Xi chuckled, "mother, I''m getting married soon. The more peaceful the house is, the better." If she really has a bad heart, it is really too risky, and she can understand it.


    At that time, Liu suddenly woke up. Yes, she was about to get married. How could she take a drastic salary? What''s more, this marriage has the intervention of the internal government, and nacai''s collection of auspicious things should be carried out quickly. How can he linger on the sick bed for a long time? It should be all right. She was relieved to think so.


    But these two days, she saw that the whole family was seriously ill. Although she had taken care of Wu Xing and arranged people to take care of the compound, she was afraid that in case the whole Wu family would be destroyed, and she was afraid that she would secretly move her hands and feet and be perceived by the people in the palace to cause great disasters. She was always worried. Until the mammy in the palace walked away without exception and knew that the Wu family might have passed this level, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, the crying Wu Jiao really gave her a headache

 Chapter 135

    On March 15, the Duke of Guang''an finally crossed the gate of the city and went straight to the palace in the eagerness of a cadre of people in Kyoto. His face was full of joy.


    However, Wang Jingtai was disappointed when he looked at the young man in royal clothes who was unharmed in front of him. He waved his hand to show that he accepted the gratitude of Guang''an Hou and asked him to step down.


    Then Hou Guang''an went to Ci''an palace to greet him, but after a moment, he swept away his previous happy look and rushed angrily into the front of the king of Zichen hall. Five rivers were on the side and immediately became vigilant.


    Jing Tai looked at his brother in front of him in surprise and asked, "Jing Yuan, what happened?"


    "Why is the Empress Dowager so seriously ill?" Jing Yuan can''t hide his sadness.


    "The queen mother has been in bed for two months. The imperial doctors have tried their best to diagnose and treat, but they have never improved. Widows often stay up all night worrying about their mother''s illness. How come you and your mother often write to each other, and she didn''t mention it? Today, I''m also careless. I''ll ask the medical officer of the imperial medical department to come and give you a detailed description of the mother''s condition. " Then he ordered Wuhe to invite all the medical officers on duty today from the imperial medical department.


    Jing Yuan said hurriedly, "my mother kept it from me, but brother Wang didn''t mention a word? My younger brother still remembers that when I was a child, my mother accidentally frosted her hand in winter. Brother Wang hurriedly went to the imperial medical department and begged for ointment to apply it to her by hand. Although the empress mother only taught her younger brother for a few years, the younger brother always regarded her as his own mother. If she had a... "He suddenly hushed and eased his tone," no, no, the empress mother will last forever. Today, I went to see her. She was very happy when she asked about my marriage. "


    Jing Tai''s face also relaxed. "I''m afraid the mother''s illness is caused by the cold weather in the first month. It''s also an old disease. It''s more difficult. Now it has entered March, and the weather is getting warmer and warmer. It must be able to get better slowly. She is also worried about your marriage, so she hurriedly asked me to marry you, and chose the nearest day to fix the wedding date. I also want to make her old man happy. I''m not sure. I''ll be fine as soon as I''m happy. "


    Then several medical officials from the imperial medical department arrived. Jing Tui pointed to them and said, "you guys, please explain to the marquis. How''s the Empress Dowager''s condition?"


    Led by Chen Taiyi, wiping a cold sweat, slowly talked to Jing Yuan about the Empress Dowager''s condition, which was nothing more than external evil invading the body and stagnation in the chest.


    Jing Yuan listened impatiently and said, "since the medicine from your imperial medical department is invalid, why don''t I bring my family''s good doctor tomorrow, and I''ll recruit people with excellent folk medicine, can''t I find out the cause?"


    Doctors dare not speak.


    Jing Ti spat, "I posted a notice at the gate of the city a few days ago offering a reward for famous doctors. So far, no one has come to expose it. You can do wonders when you recruit? "


    Jing Yuan said carelessly, "there is no Kyoto, but there are no Dingzhou and Qingzhou? I also let people make a list in Liangzhou. There must be a lot of money under a good doctor. " He thought for a while and said excitedly, "brother Wang, you just said that the cold in Kyoto caused the old illness of the mother. But Liangzhou is warm. After the wedding, how about letting my younger brother and his mother go to Liangzhou for a few days? Maybe the mother''s body will be better! "


    Jing Tai subconsciously objected, "the Empress Dowager''s Phoenix body is precious. How can she leave the palace at will? If there is any mistake, you and I can''t afford it. "


    Jing Yuan smiled and gave a farewell ceremony. "Brother Wang, please make a decision on this idea. My mother has lived in the palace for a long time. Maybe she also hopes to walk around and have a look. I haven''t learned anything else in recent years. I''ve traveled around and gained a lot of knowledge. I can just accompany my mother around to relieve boredom. I''ll leave now and ask my mother what she means. "


    Jing Tai said with a headache, "brother yuan, don''t think of one out. The Empress Dowager''s going out of the palace is very important. I have to think about it in the long run. You''ve just come back. Go down and see how your wedding is going. If there is any shortage, don''t mention it. Just report it to the inner government. " Jing Yuan said "promise" and left.


    I don''t know what the Duke of Guang''an said when he entered the Ci''an palace again. After the Duke of Guang''an came out of the palace, the Duke of Guang''an who was about to get married was not as happy as he thought, but with a gloomy and handsome face and fierce eyes. People couldn''t help thinking of the cruel young man who killed 100000 prisoners six years ago. Although there was no murderous spirit, the dark clouds on his face looked like the moment before the rage of thunder. Those who have eyes are far away. Even the eunuch who is familiar with him in the palace just leads the way silently, and the atmosphere dare not go out.


    As soon as the news came out, all the courtiers speculated whether Hou Guang''an disliked that the wife chosen by the king for him was too humble, but because it was the marriage given by the king, it was hard to resist, so he was angry and could not vent.


    Some courtiers and family members who were waiting and waiting and didn''t send gifts to the Wu family suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Lord Hou is not satisfied with the marriage. His foreign family grade is low. It seems that there is no need to make friends to please.


    But when he returned to the Marquis house, he had to report the wedding lineup to the five river supervisor. It is said that all three dignitaries in the palace will come to watch the ceremony tomorrow. At the thought of this, he had another headache. It was not unprecedented for the noble people in the palace to go out to watch the ceremony, but it was the first time for three noble people to go out of the palace together. It is said that the king dotes on this brother most. It seems that what he said is true. Although the Duke of Guang''an and the king are not the same mother, they grew up under the Empress Dowager''s knee and have deep feelings. Before the king ascended the throne, he had actually mastered the power to supervise the country and the power to transfer most of his troops and horses. He moved those brothers of the royal family to the fiefdom early and made them unable to return to Beijing without call. Only this brother, because of the empress dowager, could not make him never return to Beijing. The king allowed him to travel between the fiefdoms and Kyoto wantonly, even if he traveled everywhere a few years ago. It was not until the death of the former King Hong that the king called him back to the capital for mourning and supervised the construction of a mausoleum. The king also heard that the Lord and the six young ladies of the Wu family were happy before he married them. Why did the Lord seem unhappy? And summoned his enemies to the wedding, hoping to make a big noise? What if tomorrow''s wedding really gets noisy?


    The little maid in waiting came up and told her that the auspicious hour was coming. So he had to cheer up, called a little eunuch, took a message back to the palace, led the rest of the people into the courtyard with a smiling face, and asked the Marquis to go to the Wu family to greet their relatives and make up.


    When the party arrived at the Wu family, a waiting boy set off firecrackers and attracted neighbors to watch. The makeup urging box in Hou''s house was filled with bronze dishes, whole pigs and whole sheep, which were successively carried into the army in an orderly queue of eunuchs and maids. Housekeeper Zhou had already commanded his servants to receive the makeup box and welcomed the best man team into the main courtyard. The 128 dowries are ready and waiting in the courtyard. When Wu Zhilian and Wu Xing came out to receive them, they couldn''t help being silly at the sight of such a lineup of young and old. However, these are all famous. Wu Zhilian was flattered and less surprised. He immediately welcomed them and made a cold noise with them.


    However, Hou Guang''an just talked with Wu Xing. After talking for a while, someone reported that the banquet had opened, and Jing Yuan was led to the chair of the banquet.


    Liu''s family, the Wu family and their relatives were in the falling moon courtyard. They were chatting with each other while arranging the things they would wear to marry the next day. Zhuo Xi, as a bride, naturally can''t avoid it, but she is not familiar with the relatives of the three aunts and six women, and she doesn''t want to get familiar with them. Fortunately, Wu Ru, who is close to her, has been talking with her all the time, so as not to make her so boring. The old lady also moved here to have fun.


    Wu Jiao has been missing. She knows it must be because the whole family ate the wedding cakes sent by the palace and made her lie down for a few days. She missed the palace election and didn''t know where to hide and sulk.

 Chapter 136

    "See, see." Red tea, who served the old lady closely, blushed and panted, and shouted at the old lady.


    The old lady laughed and scolded her, "what strange things make you so anxious?"


    Tea face more red, everyone knows that she was sent to secretly look at the appearance of the groom, have teased her, "see? What does it look like? Handsome or not? "


    Tea swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Originally, it was against the rules to secretly look at the bridegroom, but anyway, she was in the old lady''s house. In the future, she could not get into any suspicion of melon fields and Li Xia, so she crossed her heart and said, "see, uncle Liu is a handsome man, more handsome than a woman."


    Hahaha, it made a bunch of women laugh and joked, "the girl with red sleeves is usually smart. Why is she clumsy today? What is more handsome than a woman? "


    "Yes, that''s the kind of handsome who is more handsome than women. In short, Jun is right. " Tea also laughed and joked. He secretly wiped a cold sweat in his heart. He joked that Lord Hou was a murderous God who killed 100000 prisoners every day. Who dares to look at him? Take a peek at yourself. It''s not a crooked melon and split dates. You have to explain it. Where dare you look carefully? In case of being caught, wouldn''t you covet my uncle''s reputation?


    Liu Shi also said with a smile, "we six girls have served the Marquis for so long. Don''t you know we are handsome? It''s a white trip. "


    Red tea coquettishly said to Mrs. Tai, "old lady, that''s my uncle! Red tea looks at one eye and frightens her legs soft. Where dare you look at the second eye? " She emphasized the word "Uncle" to show her attitude of avoiding suspicion.


    Mrs. Tai also laughed, "come on, don''t embarrass me, a girl who hasn''t been married yet. What does the bridegroom look like? Can''t everyone see it tomorrow? "


    Zhuo Xi pursed her lips and smiled. She was grateful for the kindness and warmth of the Wu family from the bottom of her heart. She just remembered the mother and daughter and sighed in her heart. The other day, mother Wu asked her to inquire about Aunt Zhou''s mother''s home and give some compensation. I don''t know whether it has been done or not.


    At one o''clock in the afternoon, the dowry of the Wu family went back to Hou''s house with the best man''s team.


    Liangyu is carrying a huge dowry box and secretly rejoices that he has enough hands. Originally, the wedding date was set in a hurry. The king was afraid that the Wu family had no time to prepare the dowry, so he specially approved the help of the inner house. Unexpectedly, the Wu family also collected a dowry of 128. Tomorrow is the right day to greet relatives, and you can''t neglect it.


    The next day, Zhuo Xi was tossed and bathed by girls such as Xiao Li early in the morning. After breakfast, she began to make up. The makeup Mammy was sent from the palace and skillfully grabbed her hair into the shape she wanted.


    She dared not say it in her mouth. She sighed in her heart that her life was so perfect. The once-in-a-lifetime marriage was held twice. Counting the bloody worship of heaven and earth, it seemed that there were three times? But when I think about it, I can open my eyes and see that person every day. My heart is still full of sweetness.


    Ke min and Xiaoji Xiaoguai also came to deliver the wedding and helped hand over hairpins, rings, clothes and socks.


    To her surprise, Xiao soul, who thought she was not good at serving others, was very familiar with the wedding etiquette. For a moment, she reminded her that the double gold hairpin on her head should be inserted in the middle of her head to facilitate the groom to "promote" her. For a moment, she said that she had to wait until her clothes were dressed neatly to avoid soiling her clothes. Even after the wedding mother told her the whole wedding process, she bit her ear and quietly added that when the husband and wife worship each other, they must wait for the groom to worship themselves first and then shallow, otherwise everything will be put on the head by the groom in the future.


    Zhuo Xi listened and chuckled, "look, you are only seventeen or eighteen years old. How does it seem that you have become a kiss?"


    In exchange for Xiao soul''s white eyes, and her slightly gloomy tone, "I just waited on my sister and married once."


    "Oh? You have a sister? Where did you marry? " Zhuo Xi suddenly became interested.


    Xiao soul refused to say anything. Zhuo Xi gave up when she saw that her face was not depressed.


    When the auspicious hour arrived, the outside was noisy and lively. Several children were surprised and screamed constantly. They were afraid of getting a lot of wedding money. Xiao Li was embarrassed to pick up the wedding money because they had received the wedding money in Liangzhou last time. Zhuo Xi pushed them, and they just went to pick up two meanings.


    When Xi Niang shouted "crying for marriage", she looked at her old lady and Liu Shi with tears in front of her. She couldn''t help but shed tears when her nose was sour. As a man for two generations, she always thought her family relationship was weak. Unexpectedly, she could still have such a perfect wedding. It''s really worth her rebirth. Thinking so, tears fell down, holding the old lady and Liu''s tears.


    This cry made Liu''s heart settle a lot. She has been afraid that this "daughter" will be separated from the Wu family in the future. It seems that she is grateful and nostalgic.


    Then when he went out, Wu Xing, the eldest brother-in-law, dutifully squatted down and carried Zhuo Xi into the sedan chair.


    The firecrackers crackled again.


    She looked at the figure outside through the red car curtain. With a long sigh of relief, she took out the small dessert hidden in her sleeve and ate it carefully. This is the prelude. The most important thing is still in Hou''s house!


    Xiao Hun, who followed outside the sedan chair, heard the movement inside and whispered, "Miss, no, madam, be careful to spend your makeup!"


    "Eh? Why it is you? Where''s Xiao Li? " She always thought it was Xiao Li who followed outside the sedan chair, but it was Xiao soul.


    "Xiao Li and Xiao Ji are still staying at Wu''s house to pick up your daily clothes."


    Zhuo Xi lifted her veil and looked around. She vaguely saw a figure on the other side of the sedan chair and asked, "who''s that sister over there?"


    The figure immediately turned back and saluted respectfully, but his steps kept, "my subordinates, how are you. I came to serve you at the order of the marquis. "


    Zhuo Xi was silent and saw that Xiao soul didn''t make a sound. He knew it meant Jing Yuan. Xiao Li, Xiao Ji and other people related to the badminton club stayed in the Wu family. All the people who came to Hou''s house were Jing Yuan. I''m afraid this flower may not be a general generation. Is there something big happening today?


    When she remembered that day, Jing Yuan said, "if there are variables on the wedding day, you should listen to Xiao soul. I''ve arranged everything. "


    When she arrived at Hou''s house, a series of actions of kicking the car door and crossing the brazier were completed in the crackling sound of firecrackers. She could only see Jing Yuan''s heel under the cover, so she followed his heel to the main hall. Through the veil, she saw a crowd waiting in the lobby, but it was silent. I think the Empress Dowager came to the scene to watch the ceremony. Jing Yuan had already mentioned to her that the king and queen might also come.


    She felt some emotion in her heart. The last time she was in Liangzhou, it was all Jing Yuan''s good friends and subordinates. Although it is quiet here, there are relatives in the high hall. Life is like this. There are always perfect and imperfect times.


    Only the voice of the salute officer shouted, "worship heaven and earth - Worship -"


    They turned to the door and gently bowed down.


    "Two -- three --"


    "Worship the high hall -" the chief of ceremonies shouted again.


    They turned and knelt down towards the main hall. She knew that the Empress Dowager was sitting on it.


    "One worship - two worship - three worship -" the two men made three worship correctly before they slowly stood up.


    "Husband and wife worship each other -" the two stood still and worshipped each other three times.


    The courtesy officer smiled happily, "courtesy --"


    When they were led to the new house by Xi Niang, they sat down.


    Jing Yuan lifted off her head with a scale. At that moment, Zhuo Xi saw him dressed in happy clothes. His face was like congealed fat, his deep pupil was like ink, his dimple was outstanding, and his body was jade. She, who had always been straightforward, couldn''t help looking stunned and didn''t know how to react for a moment.


    The Xi Niang on one side was afraid of embarrassment in the cold, so she quickly sent auspicious words and held a glass of wine.


    They sent the wine into the mouth according to the words. Zhuo Xi only felt that she was going to drown in his dark eyes like a deep pool, but saw him wink at herself. She broke her skill and almost laughed.


    She seemed to know what he meant and winked at him.


    Xi Niang sent dumplings. She ate one with him and spit it out in a hurry.


    Xi Niang asked at the right time, "are you born?"


    "Sheng!" The two answered in unison.


    All the women in the house laughed.


    Then they went through the processes of promotion, tent laying and bill rolling. The women''s family members were greeted by Xi Niang and went back to the inner courtyard for dinner. The groom''s black eyes stared at her deeply, as if there were thousands of words. Finally, he endured it and whispered in her ear, "wait for me to come back." Then he went out of his bridal chamber.


    The room was quiet. Zhuo Xi looked around and saw Xiao soul and the new flower standing aside. She could not help but relax her waist and shouted Xiao soul, "are you hungry? See what snacks you have. " I ate some snacks on the sedan chair to cushion my stomach. I didn''t have to make the two girls hungry.


    As soon as the voice fell, mother Wu had brought a little girl with a food box, "madam, I''ve finally waited for you. Are you tired, too? The Marquis told us to serve you first. Eat while it''s hot and have a rest. "


    Zhuo Xi shook the heavy Phoenix crown on her head and pointed to her cheek, "Mom Wu, do you have the heart to let me eat like this?"


    Why is the wedding night of someone else''s house extremely pink bubbles, and her wedding night has only one old mother and three maids?


    Mother Wu put down her things and came up to serve her. She changed her Jifu. Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "how can I bother mother Wu and let Xiao soul come."


    Xiao soul also started to remove her headdress, and Hua Yan came to remove her clothes together. Zhuo Xi cleaned her face and changed into a comfortable dress. She suddenly felt much more relaxed. After greeting Xiao soul and Hua Yan, three people ate three bowls of noodles.


    Wu''s mother saw that everything was about the same. She told her to leave and went down.


    Zhuo Xi was left to sit on the newly married bed and close her eyes. Xiao soul and Hua Yan stood by the door and watched the dragon and Phoenix candles burning in the corner.

 Chapter 137

    There were more than ten seats in the inner courtyard, and the queen sun Yao was presiding over the wedding banquet.


    She raised her glass. "Sister-in-law is like a mother. There are no female relatives and elders in the Marquis of Guang''an, and my mother is not well, so I have to work for her. Today is a happy day for the Duke of Guang''an. Ladies and ladies, don''t be polite and be casual. "


    All the women''s families raised their glasses one after another, "congratulations to the Empress Dowager and the queen."


    The Empress Dowager also said with a smile, "I''m half buried. It''s my great wish to see the last child of the former king get married with my own eyes."


    Jing Mo Wang Changji said with a smile, "what did the mother say? You have to wait to have grandchildren. Today is brother Wang''s great joy. Where did the depressed words come from? "


    Luo Yuan and Xiaojun Ji refused, "the Empress Dowager''s grandmother is right. I have to teach my niece piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Just wait for happiness!" They all knew the Empress Dowager''s illness, but they didn''t dare to reveal half of it. They only picked up good words.


    Jing Mo teased her, "just because you have a little flower fist and embroidered legs, and you still play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, can you take it?"


    It made everyone laugh.


    Mrs. Qin is on the other table, taking care of the ladies of other Marquis families.


    She was very reluctant to go out of the palace to attend the banquet, but the inner house drew up a list early in the morning. It said that the Marquis had no female relatives and elders and was the king''s favorite brother. Several sister-in-law wanted to take care of one or two at the wedding banquet. She chose several wives and arranged them on several distinguished ladies of the noble family. She went to the king and didn''t know what pillow breeze the queen had blown. She said, "my younger brother is not an outsider. You sisters in law don''t know who will help me". Unexpectedly, she didn''t agree to her request. She had to come with three other ladies.


    She exchanged greetings with several aristocratic family ladies on the table, then got up and took the maid of honor to the back to change clothes.


    When she came out of the clean room, she found that the maid in waiting was not waiting outside the clean room. She was a little strange. She took two steps forward, but she felt that she was hit hard on the back of her neck. Then she was black and didn''t know anything.


    When Mrs. Qin woke up, she was in a small dark room.


    She had a splitting headache and was about to get up, keenly aware of someone nearby.


    Sure enough, the next moment, a voice sounded, "madam, are you awake?"


    This honorific did not let Mrs. Qin relax her vigilance. She asked in a tight voice, "who are you? Why not light the light? "


    It''s Shenshi to pay homage to the hall, and the wedding banquet is just a good time. The sky outside should still be bright. Why can''t a trace of light come in here? She was instinctively frightened.


    One hand held her softly, "madam, don''t be afraid. The situation is urgent today. Now the crisis outside has not been eliminated, so you can''t light the light. Madam, just a moment. "


    "I''m familiar with your voice. Where has Mrs. Ben seen you?" She seldom goes out of the palace. It is likely that the person who speaks is a person in the palace.


    "I work in Ci''an palace every day. My name is heng''er." The girl didn''t hide her.


    "Ci''an palace? The Empress Dowager ordered you to come? " She frowned, which would be understandable if she were the Empress Dowager. I think it''s the Empress Dowager''s kindness to remind beauty Wang last time.


    "Madam is in danger. The master asked me to save you first." Heng''er said softly.


    "What happened outside? Who knocked me unconscious? " Asked Mrs. Qin.


    "Shh -- you''ll know in a minute." Heng''er gave a voice to remind.


    Mrs. Qin listened. There seemed to be a woman''s groan in one direction.


    Are there other women who were knocked out like her? She thought of the little call she brought with her today.


    They heard a noise outside. It''s like a group of people came here.


    A courtesan''s respectful voice sounded, "here is the queen."


    Outside, sun Yao is leading several women''s family members over, "go and open the door."


    "Yes."


    The maid of honor gently opened a door and carried the lantern in.


    "Ah!" exclaimed Mrs. chang''anbo, who was followed


    After only one look, she deeply regretted her curiosity when a palace maid rushed into the queen at the banquet and exclaimed "no, no, no".


    At that time, the queen gently drank the little maid in waiting. "Today is a great joy for the marquis. What''s worth making such a fuss about? What should you do to offend the Empress Dowager!"


    The little maid in waiting was so frightened that she trembled and dared not speak.


    It was she who said a lot to intercede for the poor palace maid, "today is a happy day. You can say anything. The Empress Dowager and the queen are Bodhisattva hearts and will decide for you."


    In fact, she also had two drinks in front of her. The wine gas surged up before she became bolder. She thought that the little maids in the deep palace were always cautious. How could she shout loudly in front of the queen for no reason? She must have got the permission of the queen to do so. She just wanted to stretch out a step for the queen. How did she know that she was pulled here to face such an embarrassing situation? This is the secret of the royal family. I don''t know. I know. Can I get rid of my relationship with the whole uncle family?


    She put aside her face and didn''t look at the room, but listened to the Jingqian Wang Changji in front. First, she ordered the palace maid to pull the men and women who were wriggling in the house. Wang Changji, who came over together, said to the queen, "I''m afraid this matter has polluted the holy eyes of the queen. How about leaving it to my concubine?"


    Sun Yao snorted coldly, "I''ve heard that the crown prince''s behavior is absurd for a long time. I always think that the crown prince will understand things more and more as he grows older. Who would have thought that today''s event would happen? Our palace is not good at discipline. It''s really ashamed of the king. Let sister Wang handle the matter! " The implication is that her stepmother is not much older than the crown prince, and she is really unable to discipline him. Moreover, he just tortured several palace maids on weekdays, which is not a big deal. Wang Changji wants to reach out and see what she can do.


    Jing Mo Qi said, "how did the empress know that it was the crown prince?" The man didn''t realize that someone came in. He was holding out his hand to the woman''s neck and twitching quickly. The woman at the bottom has lost her voice and doesn''t know whether she is dead or alive.


    "Look at a female corpse next to you. Isn''t that a good way for the prince?" Sun Yao said coldly.


    As a result, there was a dead woman lying beside the bed. Her neck was covered with blue and purple pinch marks. The blood at the corners of her mouth was bright as if it was still dripping. It was obvious that she had just died, and her eyes were wide open, staring at the sky and looking at some people. People who often haunt the palace know that this is the consistent way for the crown prince to abuse the palace maids, but no one has investigated it all the time.


    The two little maids in the house couldn''t bear to look directly at the prince. They tilted their heads to pull the prince who was lying on the red body. Their trembling hands lingered on the smooth body and didn''t know how to do it. Jing Mo couldn''t see it anymore. He ordered the other two palace maids to get a basin of cold water, and then said to the crown princess who followed him, "hurry to pull out your crown prince!"


    The princess shivered into the room, first picked up the clothes on the ground and spread them on the man''s bare back, and then pulled his arm across the clothes.


    The man roared, "who eats the bear heart leopard and dares to spoil my interest?! Get out of here! "


    The princess pulled him again and shouted, "prince, wake up. Have you been drugged?"


    Sun Yao sneered that the crown princess was a clever one.


    When the maid in charge of water arrived, she looked at Jing Mo''s eyes and the Queen''s eyes. She walked forward and gritted her teeth and poured a basin of cold water on the two people on the bed.


    The prince was so excited that he woke up and was stunned. Regardless of the wet and cold clothes on the ground, he picked them up and put them on his body.


    The princess hurried to dress him and cried loudly, "prince, it''s a good day for Uncle Wang. How can you do such a ridiculous thing? You didn''t wake up just now... "


    The prince also experienced the wind and rain. He reacted very quickly, gave her an appreciative look, walked out quickly and knelt in front of sun Yao.


    "Empress mother, I have just drunk too much. Somehow I came here and did such a ridiculous thing. Please punish me." However, there are only two palace maids. There have been several such things in the palace. As long as you admit your mistake, what else can the queen say? It''s not like punishing the crown prince for the sake of two palace maids, is it?


    Sun Yao glanced at Jing Mo, "this is the Marquis of Guang''an. The bride has not yet taken charge of Zhongfu. It''s also a family matter. Please deal with it. "


    Jing Mo said, "crown prince Leng, you are ridiculous. How can you make such a decision on the day of your uncle Wang''s great joy..." before she finished her words, the crown princess in the room exclaimed, "Mrs. Wang, how can it be you!"


    It turned out that the woman who had just been strangled to death by the prince was splashed with cold water, choked a few times, youyou woke up and turned around. Seeing a figure walking out, she rushed over and hugged her.


    She raised her eyes and saw that it was the crown princess. She trembled with fear. She let go of her. She was surprised that she was naked and looked around for clothes first.


    Sun Yao walked forward two steps. "Princess, what are you yelling about? Which Mrs. Wang? "


    The princess stepped out of the door pale, walked absently to the prince and knelt down.


    The prince is a little inexplicable. Why does Mrs. Wang appear again?


    The woman in the room saw sun Yao as if she had seen the Savior. She quickly put on her clothes and rushed over and cried, "queen, please save my concubine. I don''t know why I was knocked unconscious. When I woke up, I saw the prince... He was going to kill me! "


    Sun Yao was surprised, "Mrs. Wang, how do you..."


    Jing Mo frowned. If it was only a family affair, it would be just to deal with it privately. How did you know that one of the victims was one of the king''s four wives, Mrs. Wang. I''m afraid it can''t be done well.


    Mrs. Wang cried, "originally, my concubine ate well at the table. A maid in waiting accidentally knocked over the wine cup when she came to pour wine. My concubine wanted to clean up the wine stains in the backyard, but she was knocked unconscious somehow. When I woke up, I saw the prince pinching my neck... "Speaking of this, her face became more and more pale. The prince''s technique is well known in the palace. When the palace maid and imperial concubine saw the prince, they all took a detour. Since he pinched him naked, he must have


    She thought of this and said sadly to the queen, "empress, please tell the king that it is a blessing for my concubine to serve the king for three years. I dare not insult the dignity of the heavenly family. " She was about to hit the tree next to her.


    "Stop her!" Sun Yao shouted hurriedly. One side of the palace maid quickly grabbed Mrs. Wang. She looked at Jing Mo, meaning, what do you do?

 Chapter 138

    Jing Mo sighed, bowed and said, "queen, since this matter has already involved Mrs. Wang, it should belong to the back palace. You are the head of the harem. My concubines dare not trespass. I also ask the queen to be the master. " The major events in the inner palace are naturally decided by the queen.


    Sun Yao also sighed, "it''s important, and the palace doesn''t dare to decide. In my opinion, I''d better tell the king to make a decision. "


    The crown prince was stunned, and the crown princess was paralyzed on the ground.


    Jing Mo glanced at the two ladies left beside him, one is Mrs. Chang''an Bo and the other is Mrs. Qingyuan Bo.


    The two ladies showed their deep regret on their faces. Seeing Jing Mo looking at it, Mrs. Chang''an quickly bowed and saluted, "tell the queen and the two wangchangji that I ate too much wine today and felt dizzy. I''m really unable to drink. Can you allow me to go back to the house first?"


    Mrs. qingyuanbo also hurriedly said, "before that, I reported from my family that my mother-in-law was unwell. I had to go home to take care of my mother-in-law, and I left first."


    Sun Yao said slowly, "but the banquet is not over yet. How can you withdraw early..."


    Mrs. Chang''an immediately stroked her forehead and said, "I''m really drunk. I didn''t see anything."


    Mrs. Qingyuan should also say, "exactly. This wine is so powerful today. I haven''t drunk two more cups, but I''ve already taken a nap. " The implication was that they both heard nothing and saw nothing.


    Seeing that the two men were so good at opening their eyes and telling lies, sun Yao no longer kept them, waved and let them all retreat. Both Chang''an Bo and Qingyuan Bo were granted due to their achievements in following the dragon with the former king, but their children are not outstanding. Now they are not in a key position. I''m afraid they dare not talk nonsense when they go back.


    She turned and said to the prince and Princess kneeling on the ground, "get up first, or wait until the palace has been reported to the king."


    The prince felt that the cold sweat on his back was all wet, and Qiang calmly wrote a word in the palm of the princess''s hand.


    The crown princess was shocked in her heart, but she didn''t dare to show it on her face. She trembled and fell to the ground and said, "the queen, the two long princes, my body, my body, my body, I have been thinking about the two young children in the family. I''m afraid there''s no one to control and cry. Can I go back to the Palace first and take care of bin''er and Yao''er? "


    "It is said that husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately in the face of a great disaster. Why, you want to fly alone before this great difficulty comes? " Sun Yao said coldly.


    The Crown Princess closed her eyes and made up her mind, "the mother Princess is serious. The crown prince did something wrong. His mother and father are the masters. Why is it so difficult? No matter how to deal with the crown prince, his ministers have no objection. I''m afraid bin''er and Yao''er are frightened when they see that my concubine hasn''t returned for a long time. They also ask the empress mother to let my concubine go back to take care of her earlier. "


    Sun Yao wanted to shake her head and thought about it. Her husband did such an unbearable thing. As a wife, it was really unbearable to see how her father-in-law and mother-in-law dealt with her husband, so she nodded, "go. When you go back, you can''t get to the palace without purpose."


    This is foot ban. The Crown Princess bowed with tears and kowtowed three heads before she got up and left.


    The maids were locked out of the door. Mrs. Wang tried her best to stand, but she fell to the ground again and again. After so many times, she did not force herself and tilted to the ground. Fortunately, the Hefeng hall is equipped with wooden floors for some reason. She has long heard that the new repair style of the Marquis of Guang''an is very different. Now she sees it for the first time, but she doesn''t want to watch it carefully.


    The prince didn''t get up and go. He said to the queen calmly, "empress mother, my son-in-law has something to say."


    Sun Yao''s face was livid. "If you have anything to say, go back to the palace!"


    This is obviously a trap. I don''t know what arrangement she has here. Either her people or my father''s people in the palace. Back to the palace, does he still have life?


    "No." The prince replied, "empress mother, although the two aunts and children''s ministers sometimes act absurd, they will never do such a treacherous thing on the good days of Uncle six. The minister had two more drinks at the banquet just now, and was knocked unconscious when he came out to change clothes. He didn''t wake up until he was splashed with cold water. What happened during this period is still at a loss. Please also ask the empress mother to have a thorough investigation here. "


    Sun Yao was angry. "You have done such an absurd thing, and you still have the face to let the palace investigate it thoroughly? Do you want everyone in this house to know! "


    Whether it is the inner courtyard or the outer courtyard, there are many guests to the banquet. If there is a little bigger action, the news will naturally be revealed.


    The prince straightened his back, "my son is dizzy, but he still smells abnormal smell in the inner room. The empress only needs to send someone into the palace to invite a imperial doctor to come over. We can know whether there is residual poison in the children''s ministers, and we can also judge whether there is strange fragrance in the room. "


    Sun Yao''s face slowed slightly. "Now the Empress Dowager is weak and is still waiting for the banquet in Furong house. Why don''t you accompany the Empress Dowager back to the Palace first, or report to the king and then send the imperial doctor to check? "


    "I''m afraid some traces will disappear at that time. The son minister begged the empress mother to complete it. " Whether it''s the fragrance or the overpowering drug in your body, it will dissipate over time.


    Sun Yao said, "in that case, the palace will send someone to the imperial medical department to invite Dr. Chen to come here. I''ll follow you back to the Palace first. "


    She turned and was about to leave.


    The crown prince did not move, and he would not know the Queen''s perfunctory?


    He looked at Mrs. Wang, who was paralyzed on the ground, and said, "Mrs. Wang, the palace has no intention of offending her, but today''s matter is too strange. Don''t you want to find out? You don''t care about yourself. You should also care about the face of Wang Min Shu. "


    Mrs. Wang''s gray face finally had a little color. After thinking about it, she knelt down and cried, "queen, my concubine is now broken and has no face to see the king again. But before I die, my concubine must die clearly! Bitch, you need to know the truth! I hope the queen can send someone here to check it out! "


    Jing Qian also made a noise, "the queen, the crown prince is also reasonable. Why don''t we find a room for rest in the Hefeng hall and wait. After all, everything is important. If there is no evidence, the king will not be able to make a decision. "


    Jing Mo also said, "this method is feasible. The Empress Dowager sent someone to report that we were all gone, and asked her to go back to the Palace first. The people at the furongju banquet will disperse slowly when they see that we have all left. Then send someone to ask the king to come over. If there is a result of a thorough investigation, it may also be presented to him. "


    Sun Yao was so angry that so many people witnessed it with their own eyes or without evidence? These two wangchangji, as expected, still towards the prince.


    She had to press down her anger and order several palace maids next to her, "you, report to the Empress Dowager. You, go and report to the king. You, take the sign of this palace and ask doctor Chen. "


    Another maid in waiting came and said, "queen, two princes, next to this is the small flower hall. It''s windy here. Why don''t you take a rest here?"


    Sun Yao nodded and led a group of people into the room.


    The prince stood up and followed up the flower hall.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Mrs. Qin listened to the footsteps outside in the dark space of the inner room, and gently breathed out. If heng''er didn''t make a move, I''m afraid Mrs. Wang would be her own end. Although this is the Duke''s residence of Guang''an, one is the prince and the other is the imperial concubine. I''m afraid I can''t escape the crime of promiscuity in the back palace.


    She held heng''er''s hand and said sincerely, "heng''er, thank you."


    Heng''er patted her hand and said, "you''re welcome, Mrs. Qin. Slaves and maidservants obey the master''s arrangement. "


    Mrs. Qin thought of what she said earlier and suddenly said, "isn''t your master the Empress Dowager? Who is it? "


    There was no sound in the dark, only the warmth in his hand prompted the silence of the other party.


    After a while, heng''er said, "everyone outside has gone. We can go out."


    With that, heng''er pushed open the door next to her, and the outside light came in, illuminating the room for Mrs. Qin.


    Mrs. Qin found that it was only a small space. At first, she thought it was a small secret room. When she came out, she knew it was just a big cabinet.


    I hid myself in this big cabinet. If someone just came in to search, I''m afraid I can''t escape. But who has such a big cabinet?


    The air is still floating with strange fragrance,


    Before her doubts were relieved, she saw the familiar face beside the bed and couldn''t help screaming, "Xiao Zhao!"


    She immediately thought of the heavy blow she had just received. Who wanted to hurt her?


    King Jingtai has been drinking for three rounds and is ready to go back to the palace. He is sending someone to invite the Empress Dowager. But suddenly five rivers came in.


    The five rivers briefly told him what had happened, and finally said, "the Queen''s mother is still waiting in the inner courtyard of Hefeng hall with the crown prince and Mrs. Wang. Please go and show it."


    Jing Tai''s anger surged up, "let them go back to the palace!" After all, this is the territory of Hou Guang''an. You can''t do anything yourself. Naturally, you have to go back to the palace to deal with them. Not to mention the Empress Dowager sitting in the inner hospital with the sick body.


    He was very unwilling to come to the Marquis of Guang''an to watch the ceremony, but the Empress Dowager threatened to "Rejoice" with death, and had long made up his mind to come to the Marquis to receive the high ceremony. Although you are the king of a country, you have to "accompany" in this situation - after all, it is said that your favorite brother got married. How can you hide in the palace when your mother went out to watch the ceremony? Since he wants to come out, the queen and several ladies in the harem must also be named to make face for the Marquis of Guang''an. This time out of the palace is different from the last time I went out of the palace to participate in the auction. I not only have a clear identity, but also the time, place and route are bright in front of the world. If someone wants to do something, it''s impossible to prevent. Only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves? Rao was so. He had to ask Jiang Si to arrange 100 Jin Yuwei to accompany him, and ordered Wu Sheng, the new Chinese doctor of the military and Horse Department, to clean up the way from the palace to the Hou''s house, and then surrounded it for three floors before he reluctantly came over. All the way, until I drank a few symbolic glasses of wine, my heart full of crisis didn''t put down, so I looked forward to going back to the palace after drinking the wedding wine smoothly. But then he had to go back in a hurry. As a result, what was he afraid of? What did the good crown prince make in the backyard? Didn''t he just fight with the Gongsun Li and eat wine and have a good time? Why did you do that ridiculous thing in the backyard again? Not only absurd, but also involves Mrs. Wang? I remember that there was a rumor that the prince took a fancy to Mrs. Qin and now he has an affair with Mrs. Wang. What exactly does the prince want to do? Does the prince dislike spoiling several palace maids and take a fancy to his own woman?

 Chapter 139

    The Five Rivers said, "the prince insisted that he had been drugged and would stay here until the queen found out about it. The queen has sent for a doctor. "


    "What a shame! Doesn''t he even want his face?" There are many people with mixed mouths. If it is accidentally leaked out, it will lose the face of the whole royal family. Especially when I thought that the rumor might involve me being wearing a green hat, the fire at the bottom of my heart jumped up. No, no, no, you must cover it tightly!


    Wuhe saw a little eunuch poking his head outside and drank in a low voice, "Xiao Gui! Didn''t you go to ask too much back to pass on a message? Does the Empress Dowager have something to bring back? "


    The eunuch named Xiao Gui quickly bent his knees and said, "go back to the emperor. The Empress Dowager heard that there was an accident in Hefeng hall. It has passed."


    Jing ti''s face was green. "In that case, let the female guests disperse first! As for the outer courtyard... "He looked at Jing Yuan, who was drinking high in the crowd, and a group of people nearby," well, let them make trouble. Send two people to guard at the flower pendant gate. No one is allowed to enter the inner yard! " It''s urgent to suppress the mess in the harem first.


    Wuhe promised and kicked Xiao Gui, "don''t do it yet!"


    That little GUI repeatedly promised to cry without tears. She wanted to ask, are those who are not allowed to enter the inner court, including the bridegroom? But he dared not say anything, so he had to bow down and find someone to do the job.


    Jing Tai, with a black face, followed the eunuch who led the way to Hefeng hall.


    The eunuch was about to report to the court and was kicked aside by the king.


    Jing Ti went in and saw sun Yao sitting at the head drinking tea gas. She didn''t come anywhere. Doesn''t the queen look very clever on weekdays? Why can''t you pick it up at the critical moment?


    He snorted coldly. Sun Yao, Jing Mo and Jing Qian, the prince and Mrs. Wang quickly knelt down and saluted.


    Jing Tai looked at several people kneeling in front of him and didn''t speak for a moment.


    The prince''s heart has long been stormy.


    When he waited for Wang Shang to come over, he had thought about all the causes and consequences. The more he thought about it, the colder he was.


    He had repeatedly failed to assassinate Jing Yuan. This time, he guarded Zhong Liangshan with 20000 troops, but returned in vain. He had been labeled as "unfavorable". He wanted to break his head and didn''t know why he failed. Zhong Liangshan was the only way to return to Kyoto from Liangzhou. What went wrong and let Guang''an Hou return to Kyoto quietly? Today, I don''t know who made the arrangement and arranged him with the lady of the harem. Is it to make him fall into the crime of promiscuity in the harem and lose his sacred heart from then on? But since you want to mess with the "harem", why not set up this bureau in the palace? Is it Guang''an Hou who deals with himself? He knew he had to get rid of him again and again? But who would be so foolish to set up such a dirty situation in his house on his happy day? But if you don''t want to deal with yourself, is it Mrs. Wang? Mrs. Wang''s family has no background. Only two brothers are small county mayors in a small state and county in the north. Although Mrs. Wang was favored in the palace for some time before, she became Mrs. Jin after giving birth to a Wang Ji, but she has always been cautious and doesn''t seem to offend any big people. It is more likely that the target of the person who starts is himself. But what is the purpose? Waste yourself? Although this crime is big, after all, the king is wearing a green hat. Nine times out of ten, the king will be suppressed. How can he legitimately abolish himself in this name?


    Thinking of this, the king came in, and he was a little calmer than he was at the beginning.


    But now he knelt on the ground with the people, and the king didn''t shout. He knew that his father was staring at him at the moment, and he couldn''t help sweating on his forehead.


    Jing Tai was indeed staring at the crown prince''s head. The three round East beads trembled violently, and a few strands of hair fell from the temples, showing that there had been a fierce movement just now. I have been a prince for 30 years, but I don''t remember what kind of mentality I had in the first year when I was crowned prince. So he stared at the prince in front of him and didn''t know what was on his mind for a moment.


    While hesitating, the Empress Dowager came in with Mrs. Qin and mammy su.


    The queen was stunned when she saw it.


    Jing Tai hurried to meet her, "empress mother, why are you here? You are still ill. You''d better go back to the palace early to have a rest. " He also glanced at Mrs. Qin.


    The Empress Dowager hit him with a crutch and coughed twice. "Why, in such a big event, do you want to deal with it without telling the family?" Although she came from Furong house, she was still one step slower than Jingtai. She was afraid that he would make a decision that would make her regret. Looks good. He just arrived, too?


    "My son, aren''t you worried about your health? You''d better lean over here and take a breath. " Jing Ti helped her to sit down. He visited the Hefeng hall last time. The sofa in the living room was the most soft and comfortable. When he saw that there was a big pillow next to her, he pulled it over to make the Empress Dowager lean more comfortable.


    He looked at Mrs. Qin accompanying the Empress Dowager and frowned, "Why are you here?"


    Mrs. Qin said, "I''m afraid that mother Su can''t take care of me alone. I''ll serve the Empress Dowager together. My mother''s illness has just healed. I''m afraid there will be many places that need people''s care. More people and more hands, right? "


    Jing Tai didn''t say anything more. He turned and stretched out his foot and kicked the prince on the shoulder, "can''t you get up yet?! Get up, too. "


    The queen and the two wangchangji stood up one after another and saluted the Empress Dowager. After the prince kowtowed to the empress dowager, he also stood up. Jing Tai looked at an obvious scratch on his cheek and then looked at Mrs. Wang. Tears were stained on his face with his hair.


    The Empress Dowager said painfully, "what''s going on?" The crown prince''s biological mother went early, almost brought up by the empress dowager, and was very distressed.


    The prince knelt down again, hugged the Empress Dowager''s legs and said, "grandma, my grandson was framed."


    Mrs. Wang didn''t get up. At the moment, seeing the king looking at her, she quickly knelt forward in tears and said, "Mr. Wang, you know, my concubine is always sincere and cautious. I dare not make any mistakes. It''s hard to redeem my concubine for her death today. Even for the sake of Princess min Shu, I will die generously. But I can''t die without telling. I can''t let Princess min Shu be laughed at. She has an unscrupulous biological mother. Before my death, I had only one request to ask the king and the queen to find out the truth and return my innocence. "


    Jingtai is an exciting spirit. Yes, anyway, Princess min Shu is her own daughter and is approaching the age of marriage negotiation. If her biological mother is labeled with such a big hat, I''m afraid she can''t discuss a good son-in-law. He could not help frowning. "Get up first and tell me what happened." While talking, he also found a chair to sit down.


    Mrs. Wang bowed to the ground and said, "my body is already filthy. How dare you insult the king''s holy eyes. The inner house arranged for me to attend today''s banquet to entertain female guests. Although I felt something wrong with the palace, I thought that since the arrangement of the inner house, the king and the queen must have agreed. Thinking that Wang Ji min Shu had reached the age of marriage negotiation, she just took advantage of this banquet to meet with the xungui husbands in Kyoto. At that time, I was eating wine at the banquet and was chatting with Mrs. Ganyang Hou about the current fresh embroidery samples. When a maid in waiting served wine, she accidentally knocked over the wine glass and sprinkled some wine on my clothes. Because my carriage had clothes to change, I asked Taohong to get them. I followed the maid to the Hefeng hall to freshen up. Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the house, I felt a pain in my back neck and my body lost consciousness. " She said, "when my body was awakened by a basin of cold water, I was surprised to realize myself..."


    She climbed forward a few steps and knocked heavily on her head, "empress dowager, king and queen, it''s not a pity for my death, but please take care that Mingshu Wang Ji is somehow royal blood. Don''t let anyone humiliate her. I only want one truth, and I will die in peace. "


    Queen sun Yao hesitated, "you said you were awakened by cold water, but when the palace arrived, you clearly heard your... Cry, and the scars on the prince''s face..." she looked at Mrs. Wang''s hands, and everyone understood what she meant.


    The prince said in a deep voice, "tell the king''s grandmother, father and queen mother that their children and ministers were sober at the moment when cold water poured down. They knew nothing about what they had done and what they were doing."


    Sun Yao saluted the Empress Dowager and the king and said, "Empress Dowager and the king, the crown prince''s words and deeds are improper, and it is difficult for my concubine to take off the responsibility of education. Please also punish the queen mother and the king. But today, my concubine is really confused. I wonder if I can give my concubine a grace and ask the prince some questions? " After that, she looked puzzled and stopped talking. After looking at the people in the hall, she hesitated and said, "these are all my own people. I just hope that today''s work can be completed today. If it can be solved, I think there will be no gossip."


    Jing Ti first told the five rivers on one side, "five rivers, let someone check. Which maid spilled wine stains on Mrs. Wang''s clothes? Bring people here. "


    Five rivers should promise and go out.


    Then Jing Tai looked at the Empress Dowager again. The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "this is the matter of your harem. It''s inconvenient for your family to intervene. Just watch here."


    Jing Tai said, "if you have any questions, the queen will ask."


    Sun Yao then asked the prince, "if according to what you said, you were drugged. What about February 13? In the same way, you tortured and killed three palace maids in Danyang palace. On the tenth day of November last year, the same Danyang palace tortured and killed four palace maids. On the seventh day of October last year, three palace maids were tortured and killed. As like as two peas do today, are you being taken off every time?


    The crown prince raised his head and stared at Sun Yao. "Empress, the technique can be imitated. If you''ve taken the medicine, you''ll know if the doctor has come and tested it! " Sun Yao''s question hit him head-on. Her every move in Danyang palace was under her eyes?

 Chapter 140

    The main courtyard where Jing Yuan lived has now been renamed "Zhixi courtyard". Zhuo Xi has never been to this Zhixi courtyard since Jing Yuan moved into Furong residence on the pretext of repairing the house. Because the whole yard was built by Kou andI, who absorbed and borrowed many of the conveniences of Furong residence, but also retained the usual items of the original marquis.


    Therefore, with the help of Xiao soul and Hua Yan, Zhuo Xi went to the bathroom to wash after removing the heavy headwear and clothes. She was very satisfied with Kou Andie''s complete preservation of the functions of furongju bathroom. She could wash and take a bath comfortably, and then put on a light dress. When he came out, he received a drunk figure. He leaned on her without bones and shouted "madam, madam."


    She raised her eyes and saw that Xiao soul and Hua Yan had already retired, and the room was empty. She rolled her eyes and poked Jingyuan''s temple with her index finger. "People are gone. What else are you wearing?"


    Jing Yuan also wanted to rely on her to steal a few breaths of the fragrance around her neck. When he heard the speech, he narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "just pretend for a while."


    Zhuo Xi sniffed his hair, frowned, looked disgusted, pinched her nose and said, "Oh, how much did you drink? The smell of wine is so strong. "


    Jing Yuan left her shoulder like lightning, glared at her angrily, deliberately breathed out another breath, provoked Zhuo Xi to dodge frequently, and then jumped into the bathroom and closed the door with a bang.


    Soon, but half a cup of tea, he came out fresh.


    At one glance, Zhuo Xi, who stood by the table preparing her bottles, was stunned. I haven''t seen him so energetic for a long time. Although his hair is wet and close behind, his handsome facial features are filled with moisture on his face, and his black eyes are deeper, like a clear spring embedded in a white jade like face. He was wearing the blue silk gown she had put in the bathroom in advance, and at the waist was her copyrighted work in Feiyu zuiyu Pavilion - rich peony dragon pattern inlaid jade buckle. The whole person is handsome and handsome. Standing there, he looks like laughing and flying, which makes Zhuo Xi''s soul almost fly.


    Jing Yuan didn''t notice her look. He looked at himself. Obviously, he was very satisfied with the new dress. He dusted the skirt and said, "Xi''er, your craft is good."


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Sorry, this fabric was picked and sent by mother Wu. The clothes board was cut by Chen Yue''s family. The needle and thread were sewn by Li Sanniang in the Wu family''s needle and thread room. The five bat cloud patterns on the collar and skirt were embroidered by Qing Niang in the big lady''s room. I don''t know which place the Marquis appreciates? "


    Time is so tight. Let her embroider. Does he have to wait for his bare ass? The most important thing is that she can only sew a button or something, which happened to be where there were buttons in ancient times?


    After flattering the horse''s leg, Jing Yuan was not in a hurry. "Madam is not good at sewing, but she is good at winning by surprise. Well, it''s a good idea to fix a small purse in the sleeves and trouser seams. "


    Zhuo Xi was angry. "That''s a pocket, pocket, you know?!" What purse? And a fixed purse? Have you seen it? I just hate that there is no zipper here, otherwise I''ll let you see what a pocket is!


    She grabbed the bottles and cans prepared on the table and stuffed them all into him, "take it! Put them all in your pockets and make sure they don''t fall out! " Put some pockets on his clothes. That''s the use. Otherwise, the pockets are sewn well? She has long been impatient with taking those hard bottles and cans with her.


    Jing Yuan was black in front of her eyes. She stuffed the bottles and cans into her sleeve pocket, arms, and the seam on the outside of her pants... The little hand touched on the outside of his thigh... He suddenly became hot all over. He pressed her hand stuffed in her trouser pocket with one hand and the back of her head with the other hand, and kissed it closely.


    Zhuo Xi''s head exploded and closed her eyes. She wondered to herself that this was not the first time. Why did her hands and feet soften and blood gush? Is it this time that he came aggressively and attacked cities and lands? Or was he once again confused by the image of his long body?


    "Don''t be absent-minded!" Jing Yuan''s strength came from Panasonic. Instead, he slowly chewed her lips and occasionally stretched out his tongue to make close contact with her.


    For a long time, just when she thought he was going to let her go, he plunged into her neck and sucked hard.


    Zhuo Xi was frightened. She knew what the consequences would be. She quickly pushed him away and ran to the bathroom. On her side, she saw a blood red strawberry on her neck. She ran up and stepped on his feet, "how can I see people!"


    He leaned over with a smile, "this is our wedding night. You just need to see me. Who else do you want to see?" And the variation in him. I really don''t want to go out... Wedding night


    Zhuo Xi was embarrassed for a moment. Seeing that there were still two bottles left on the table, she immediately picked them up and pulled Jing Yuan out, "do you think I don''t know? Something big is happening tonight! Take me to the scene of the accident! "


    Jing Yuan''s feet did not move as if they were rooted.


    Zhuo Xi looked at him and said, "I put two sets of clothes in the bathroom, and the other one is pajamas. Don''t tell me you don''t know how to wear those pajamas? Have they passed? "


    Jing Yuan said, "even if I wear outdoor clothes, it doesn''t mean you have to go out together?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled without anger. "Did you let me spend our wedding night alone? Since you want to go out, I will go out with you. "


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and said, "I don''t know. What we have to face tonight may be the bloodbath, or the darkest ugliness in the world. After thinking for so many days, I still haven''t decided whether to let you face it. Maybe it''s safest for you to stay here alone. "


    Zhuo Xi rarely saw him so tangled, knowing that the road ahead was still dangerous, "Jing Yuan, I was bad before and wanted to leave, so I didn''t ask or want to ask many things. Now that I am your wife, I will face ups and downs with you for the rest of my life. I need to have a clear understanding and judgment of the possible risks ahead. It''s not peaceful all the way, and the dangers have been experienced by my own life. But I never understood who our enemy was? Now, would you like to tell me? "


    He was stunned. "Enemy? In fact, I have never seen them as enemies. "


    "Who are they?"


    He sighed, "sometimes, relatives and enemies are just one thought away. Sometimes relatives are not as good as enemies with long guns. You don''t know when they can stab you in the heart. "


    Zhuo Xi understood that it was similar to her original judgment. She came forward and hugged him tightly. "There are anti purpose stories of brothers and sisters and relatives in the royal palace wall on the horizontal and vertical stage. You should know that this is an inevitable torrent of history. We can only protect the people we want to protect under the threat of this torrent."


    Jing Yuan also hugged her tightly and took a deep breath in her neck, "well, now you are my family."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and said that love turned into family affection in the end. Sure enough, it made sense, "in the future, we will have more relatives. I will never let the same thing happen to you. We should all love each other and become a loving family. "


    Family


    Jingyuan''s heart is filled with deep warmth.


    He suddenly brightened his eyes, looked deeply into her eyes and sighed, "I hate them!"


    Like childish words, Zhuo Xi listened to a Lin in her heart, "who are they?"


    Jing Yuan immediately put on a sad and pitiful look: "all those who interfere with our wedding night!"


    Zhuo Xi softened and hugged his arm, "OK, OK, I''ll compensate you ten times later! Now you fly me over? I haven''t flown for a long time... "


    Jingyuan immediately turned cloudy to sunny, picked her up and went straight to Hefeng hall.


    Ten times... Ha ha


    After several jumps, they have reached the corridor on the third floor of Hefeng hall.


    The hall on the first floor of Hefeng hall leads directly to the roof on the third floor. There are rooms on the second floor and the third floor. Therefore, although they can clearly hear the sound in the hall on the first floor, they can''t see the scene in the hall.


    Zhuo Xi pointed to the roof and motioned Jing Yuan to take her up.


    As soon as she flew up, Zhuo Xi didn''t want to come down. Because lying on the roof and taking down the two transparent glazed tiles, she could clearly see the look of everyone in the hall.


    Looking at the cold wind around, Jing Yuan secretly regretted that he didn''t bring a cloak. He was about to make a gesture for people to pick it up, but the next moment he saw Zhuo Xi rubbing his arms, directly bent over and hugged her happily.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    But the Empress Dowager said in a surprised voice, "what the queen said is true? Li''er, you, how did you... "How did you become like this?


    However, the crown prince said, "my son''s ministers are absurd and just a few palace maids. It''s difficult for my mother to remember so clearly one by one!" Which palace doesn''t often kill several palace maids and eunuchs? But he did it himself and didn''t bother to put high sounding charges on them. But Sun Yao could hear clearly when and which maid died, her original origin and name


    Sun Yao looked at Jing ti''s disapproval expression and added a powerful medicine: "among the 17 palace maids tortured and killed in Tai''s womb last year, there was a palace maiden named Qingwu. Before she came to Danyang palace, she had been on duty in Yongxiang. Her original name was lotus. She was 13 years old. Her biological mother was Liu Quxia, head of the Huanyi Bureau." She looked at Jing ti''s shocked expression, and her heart was finally happy.


    Jing Tai jumped up from his seat and kicked the prince, "you beast!"


    The Empress Dowager was confused and asked mammy Su, "why did the head maid of the Huanyi bureau give birth to a daughter?"


    Mother Su was also confused and whispered, "Liu Quxia''s maid was impressed. She was in charge of tea in the former palace. Later, she came to the clothes washing Bureau and has been a female administrator. But why she had a daughter is unknown to the maidservant. "


    The prince was kicked aside and tilted. After thinking about it, he slowly straightened up, wiped the blood around his mouth, and looked at his father with a smile, "father, dragon born dragon and phoenix born phoenix, your beast is really right."


    The blood color on Jing Tai''s face suddenly faded. She didn''t know what she thought of. She grabbed the prince''s neck and said fiercely, "if it hadn''t been for the love of Queen Huiyuan, how could I have made you the prince at the beginning of my accession to the throne?"


    The prince was choked out of breath and looked painfully at the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager shouted angrily, "king, what are you doing! Let him go first! "


    Jing Qian and Jing Mo, the two wangchangji, couldn''t see it anymore. They pulled him from left to right, "Your Majesty, have something to say. They are all their own people. How can they shout to fight and kill? "

 Chapter 141

    The prince stroked the loosened neck and gasped.


    Jing Mo advised him, "after all, he is your father. Have you ever talked to your father like this? Don''t hurry to admit a mistake! "


    Sun Yao sneered and then said, "the palace still remembers that several names of the dead palace maids are Qingluo, Qingman, Qingmang and Qingying. Their names are poetic. Unfortunately, these names can''t save the fact that they were born humble. Their original names were: Xianglan, Muhe, Ruyue, Yixin, lianmo... "Every time she said a name, Jing ti''s face became gloomy. His eyes looked at the five rivers and his suspicion increased. He saw that the five rivers trembled, and even Jing Qian and Jing Mo nearby changed their faces.


    Sun Yao still said, "Oh, yes, not only these palace maids who were brutally raped and killed by him, but also several eunuchs who had an accident, including xiaoliangzi, Fuyou, Shouxi, and others who seem to be called..."


    "Shut up!" Jing Tai drank heavily. He woke up from the shock and found that there was something wrong with the usual gentle and considerate queen, "Queen sun, what are you going to do?"


    Sun Yao ignored it and kept remembering, "Oh, by the way, there is another one called Zhang Qinglu. Originally, eunuchs didn''t have a surname. The surname of Zhang was given to him by the king! "


    The Empress Dowager suddenly understood and advised, "Queen sun, you are angry in your heart and the mourning family knows it, but today is really not a good opportunity to turn over the old account. It''s better to deal with it again after returning to the palace. Why let people see jokes here for nothing? "


    Others don''t understand what this means, but Jing Ti and Jing Leng know it in their hearts.


    Seeing that sun Yao was prepared to come this time, Jing Leng had a number in his mind about the layout, so he couldn''t help being anxious.


    Mrs. Qin echoed, "empress dowager, I''m afraid the cars and horses returning to the palace outside the house have been waiting for a long time. Why don''t I help you back to rest first? Take care of your Phoenix body. "


    The Empress Dowager listened very appropriately, "that''s the reason. Why don''t you take Jing Leng and Mrs. Wang into custody first and investigate them later when you find out what''s going on here?"


    How can Jing Leng lose the Empress Dowager''s umbrella? He hugged the Empress Dowager on both knees and said, "Grandma Wang, my grandson knows it''s wrong. I also asked my grandmother to testify for my grandson and go back to the palace after the doctor came. The grandson was really drugged. "


    The Empress Dowager asked, "have the people from the imperial medical department come?"


    Mother Su asked loudly outside.


    The voice of a eunuch outside replied, "here we are. We are waiting outside."


    "Not yet. Please come in."


    Soon a eunuch came in with a doctor.


    Seeing the visitor, the prince''s heart was cool.


    Doctor Chen knelt down and kowtowed in a regular manner.


    Jing Tai said impatiently, "go and diagnose them both." He casually pointed to Jing''s direction.


    Chen Taiyi didn''t dare to neglect. He went to Jing Leng and said, "please put out your hand."


    Jing Leng stretched out his hand and looked at Chen Taiyi nervously.


    Sun Yao was relaxed and his face was bright.


    Jing Tai stared at her coldly and looked at the five rivers again. He couldn''t help sounding the alarm. He knows the skill of Wuhe. Who is the opponent of Wuhe in this room? He wants to ask Jiang Si to come in and escort him, but he is afraid to scare the snake.


    Why should the five rivers betray him, the king of a country, and be loyal to others?


    When the five rivers saw him, they only secretly complained. He was also deceived. Queen sun''s few words made the king suspicious of himself. All the attendants for decades have done nothing?


    But Jing Mo quietly walked up to mother Su and bit her ear. "Just now the empress mother said that queen sun was angry. What''s the matter?"


    Upon hearing the question, Jing Qian also leaned over. Mammy Su glanced at the Empress Dowager and saw that she had no objection, so she whispered to them: "Queen sun just entered the house the year before last, she was pregnant, but she gave birth after a birthday banquet. She found out that there was a dish at the birthday banquet, Fulu Shouxi pill, which was stained with safflower juice. The cook who made this blessing, wealth and longevity pill was temporarily borrowed from the prince''s house. She angrily sued the empress dowager, but the cook insisted that the blessing, wealth and longevity pills were dyed with safflower juice in both the palace and ordinary people''s homes. The prince went out early and returned late every day to study at the Imperial College of the palace. How can he spare time to manage the affairs of the stove in the house? So the Empress Dowager couldn''t handle it, so she had to persuade her that it was a misunderstanding. I don''t know if she hates the crown prince. She wants to vent her anger today? "


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian looked at each other and thought of the names just reported by sun Yao. They were shocked to know that the means of crown prince Leng might not be as simple as it seems.


    Mother Su glanced at the Empress Dowager and helped to inquire, "what did the queen say about the palace maids and eunuchs just now?"


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian looked at each other awkwardly again and decided to tell the truth, "there''s one I sent to him." Jing Qian also nodded slightly.


    So those people were sent to the East Palace''s Eyeliner elsewhere? Does the prince use this method to uproot dissidents? But what happened to Liu Quxia''s daughter? If the simple is the eyelid sent by Wang Shang, how can he provoke Wang to be so furious?


    Several people here whispered, and Jing Ti could not stop them. He also knew that even if they didn''t discuss it today, they would know it in two days.


    Over there, Doctor Chen has diagnosed the pulse for both the crown prince and Mrs. Wang, and came to reply, "report back to the empress dowager, the king and the queen, and the minister has diagnosed the pulse for both the crown prince and Mrs. Wang. There is indeed some residue of Tianluo incense in their bodies."


    The prince and Mrs. Wang''s eyes lit up.


    "Since they are addicted to ecstasy, will they be ignorant?" Sun Yao asked.


    Doctor Chen shook his head, "tianluoxiang will only make people happier. If you are ignorant, how can you feel it? Moreover, there is very little Tianluo incense in their bodies, and it is absolutely impossible to make people lose consciousness. "


    Mrs. Wang fainted as soon as she heard it, and the prince closed his lips.


    Jing Tai immediately became angry, "you bastard! There is no king or father in your eyes. Even your concubine and sister will not let go. You are worse than an animal! "


    The prince''s face was as gray as death. He knew that he might be doomed. He insisted that he had been drugged. Doctor Chen did admit that he had been drugged, but he knew how the effect was, but he couldn''t prove it! Since Dr. Chen is sun Yao''s man, how can he give favorable testimony for him?


    And Mrs. Wang is barely his concubine, but what''s the matter with her sister?


    For a moment, the whole hall was silent. Everyone present heard this sentence and couldn''t help thinking of the palace maid named lotus.


    Jing Tai was surprised that he had made a mistake. He thought that the prince had such cruel means at a young age, and his heart was cold. He decadent sat on his seat and waved his hand. "The prince is arrogant, debauchery and shameless. He is going to ask the Ministry of punishment and the inner government for a joint trial another day. Five rivers, first take the prince into custody. "


    The prince is paralyzed on the ground. Once he has passed the Mingtang trial, he will at least end up deposed if he does not die. He jumped up at the next moment and fell in front of the Empress Dowager. "Grandma Wang, my grandson was confused for a moment. My grandson didn''t know that the maid in waiting was his sister! Grandma Wang, my grandson will never do such absurd things again. "


    The Empress Dowager has not awakened from Jing ti''s words. At the moment, she was awakened by the prince''s crying, "ti''er, you just said..." how can the royal blood be destroyed because of such an Oolong? What''s more, Jing''s survival has always been thin under his knees, and it is difficult for his children.


    Jing Tai looked around at his close relatives and said sadly, "Huang Quxia had been serving tea in his father''s study. Fourteen years ago, my son was scolded by my father. He was in a bad mood and had a head and tail with Huang Quxia. Unexpectedly, she was pregnant. Afraid of his father''s anger, the son''s courtiers hid the matter and found a way to transfer her to the clothes washing Bureau. I kept this secret for fourteen years, and I completely forgot it. Last month, Huang Quxia came to me in a panic. She said that her daughter lotus had not come back since she sent her wife''s starched clothes. Ask me to send someone to look for it. I don''t know. I was poisoned by this beast! "


    The prince looked at his father''s hate eyes, clenched his teeth and said to the people, "hahaha, grandma! You all regard him as a good son, husband and father, but do you know that he has no respect from his parents, love between husband and wife, brotherhood and love from his children! He keeps saying that his grandson is cruel and absurd, and his grandson''s cruelty and absurdity can''t compare with him, the king of a country who dares to kill his father and mother! "


    "What are you talking about!" Not only the empress dowager, but also Jing Qian and Jing mo were stunned.


    They never imagined that the king and the prince would climb and bite each other like mad dogs.


    Jing Tai shouted, "come on, don''t stop his mouth! Take him down! "


    Five rivers came up again to catch the prince''s hand.


    Jiang Si heard the call and ran in.


    The Empress Dowager shouted again, "wait! You let him say! "


    Five rivers dare not come forward for a moment.


    The Empress Dowager asked, "prince, what did you just say? What do you know?! Come quickly and truthfully! "


    Prince Leng stood up, his mouth filled with a strange smile, as if he was going to sink the boat.


    Jing Qian and Jing Mo looked at each other in horror and wanted to disappear here. Jing Qian''s reaction was faster. He broke in awkwardly and said with a smile, "I''m afraid lenger is still talking drunk after drinking too much. It''s not too early now, empress mother. Either we can send you back to the Palace first and ask slowly when lenger wakes up tomorrow."


    Is this the prince? Is this what the crown prince of a country can say? Even if he doesn''t die, will he drag the elders in this hall to bury him?


    The Empress Dowager stroked her chest and coughed violently, "you, one by one, deceived the mourning family. When you are old, you hide it! The former king is also your father. There is nothing you can''t hear! No, I''m afraid I''ll die soon. I want to hear the truth from you! "


    "Jiang Si, don''t you bring this evil animal down to me!" Jingtai drinks.


    Jiang Si is coming to pull Prince Yu.


    The prince shouted, "grandma, don''t you want to know how grandpa Wang went?"


    The Empress Dowager also shouted, "who dares to touch him!"


    Jiang Si dared not move.

 Chapter 142

    "Were the maids who were killed by him all the eyelids sent by the palace?" A voice whispered and leaned down again.


    At this time, somewhere on the roof of the third floor that the crown prince and they could not see, the two figures were leaning against each other. One of them looked down through the gap of a tile, and the other put his ear on the tile.


    A man complained in a very sad tone, "it''s all because you built the building so high that you can''t hear it? Suffer it! " Three floors, three or four feet high. I have kung fu in my hand and my hearing is not hindered, but she can''t hear and has to stick it on. Sometimes I have to translate by myself. It''s a little annoying. Wasn''t it good to be in there just now? Anyway, she just listens but doesn''t look. Especially, what should they do on the wedding night? Why do you suddenly run to the roof to blow? The culprit is the bottom group. Why make trouble on their wedding day? And occupy Hefeng hall?


    Had known that this play had ruined their wedding night, I shouldn''t have cooperated with the wind to let them move to the post station.


    It was Zhuo Xi who listened to the tiles. She hissed, turned Jing Yuan and interrupted his complaint, "there are so many spies in the prince''s east palace. What about our house? Is there any eyeliner in the palace? "


    Jing Yuan learned from her and rolled her eyes. "Of course, why else did I let hyacinths move out?"


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "Fengxin found someone making trouble in the house?"


    Jing Yuan nodded, "she found out their plan, so she asked me to force them out of the house and vacate the whole Hefeng hall to them."


    Zhuo Xi listened for a while and asked, "what does he mean by the respect of no parents, the love of husband and wife, the idea of brothers and sisters, and the love of children?"


    Jing Yuan closed his lips and said, "it means literally."


    "Let''s make a bet. Do you think the crown prince will tell the truth?"


    "No." Jing Yuan answered without hesitation.


    "The truth is his talisman and the talisman of the people below. If he says it, not only him, but everyone present will die. "


    Zhuo Xi "ah" said she didn''t believe it, "it''s impossible. The next group of people are his mother, wife, sister and son. What a hard heart it must be to kill them all?"


    Jing Yuan sneered, raised his eyes and saw lights winding in the distance


    "However, I''m afraid this talisman is now a waste card."


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    The Empress Dowager shouted loudly, and even Jing Tai was startled, "empress mother? Are you sick? "


    The Empress Dowager first said, "Jiang Si, it''s none of your business here. You go out first."


    Jiang Si was very embarrassed. He was afraid that he might hear something. When he heard this, he hurried out.


    The Empress Dowager simply lost her crutch, straightened her waist, and stopped pretending. She sneered, "would you like to be bedridden? Now you are so disappointed? "


    Jing Tai glanced at Sun Yao. She was surprised and said, "what did the mother say? I naturally hope that you will live for thousands of years and be blessed with longevity and health. "


    "If the mourning family really lasts for thousands of years, you, the king of a country, are afraid to eat and sleep!"


    That''s very important.


    Jingtai quickly knelt down, "empress mother, you want to kill your son! What kind of mistake did your son make? Do you want to wrong your son like this? "


    Sun Yao also knelt down,


    Tears came out of the Queen Mother''s eyes, "no, it''s not your fault, but your fault. The AI family should not send that little Dezi to investigate the death of the former king. Unexpectedly, the first king''s Gu insect has not been found out, and the AI family is also infected with water Gu. "


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian were shocked, holding the Empress Dowager from left to right with tears, and one said, "empress mother, are you really poisoned by water? No wonder I''ve taken many drugs before, but it''s always bad. " One said, "mother, you are in good health now?"


    Jing Mo said again, "he was the first king..."


    They covered their mouths in surprise.


    The Empress Dowager patted their hands, smiled happily and said, "they all say that it is the most ruthless emperor''s house! AI Jia finally understands now... "


    She turned to crown prince Liang, "Liang Er, you just said that there is no respect from parents, love between husband and wife, brotherhood and love from children. This lack of parental respect and brotherhood can be understood by mourning for the family, but what does it mean without the love of husband and wife and children? What do you know? Tell the mourners what you know. "


    Prince Leng stared at Jing Ti and said slowly, "I dare say, I''m afraid someone won''t listen."


    Jing Ti said in a hate voice, "villain! How dare you! "


    "Xiao''er, now that you''ve done it, don''t you dare let the mourners know?!"


    Jing Tai trembled, "empress mother, what do you say? My son didn''t do anything! "


    The Empress Dowager ignored him and turned to crown prince Leng: "Leng Er, just say it."


    The prince smiled miserably and said, "Grandma Wang, do you remember my biological mother, Queen Huiyuan?"


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "of course I remember. In those days, it was the yuan imperial concubine selected by the AI family for her son. Her brother was a general of Huaihua. The first king wanted to canonize tui''er as the prince, so he told the mourners to find a powerful outsider for him to protect him. The AI family chose the sister of the famous general Huai Hua in Beijing. I think at that time, tui''er had just reached the crown. Speaking of it, it had been more than 30 years. "


    Jing Leng''s eyes slowly burst into tears, "yes, that''s my eldest brother''s mother, our most respected and favorite mother since childhood. When my mother was there, we were all very happy. Every day was like Chinese New Year''s day. Uncle also treated us very well and often came to guide us to ride horses and shoot arrows. It was the happiest time of my life. However, it didn''t last long. When I was eight years old, my father met her! "


    He pointed to the queen sun Yao with a finger.


    The Empress Dowager said strangely, "Ai Jia remembers that she entered the prince''s house one year after your mother died."


    Jing Leng said angrily, "it''s her. She took the Zhao woman and presented the witchcraft to her father! He also tried to control the important officials in the court. In fact, two years before she entered the house, she had been hiding in the house secretly provided for her by her father! She was my father''s outer room! Poor mother, I''ve been guarding against concubine Teng and his wife at home, but I can''t guard against this. I don''t know where I came from. I climbed to the outer room of the royal family with one hand of magic! "


    The Empress Dowager was dizzy and stepped back two steps. Jing Mo and Jing Qian held her, with a surprised and angry face. The Empress Dowager looked at Jing Ti and suspected that she had wronged him. Has it been only sun Yao who has been poisoned?


    Sun Yao knelt on the ground, but said nothing, but a strange smile floated from the corners of her mouth.


    Jing Leng continued, "once my mother accidentally broke their conversation and learned that they wanted to attack my uncle. My mother angrily argued with them and fell ill after returning to the room. The elder brother, knowing their plot from his mother, immediately went to warn his uncle. When my uncle knew, he sent a lot of dark guards to protect our safety. Who knows that winter, my brother slipped and fell into an ice lake. Although there is no evidence, we all know that she must have done it! My mother is sad and angry, so she can''t return to heaven. Before my father and son die, I will make an oath for my father and son. "


    Jing Qian couldn''t help asking, "if his sister-in-law made him swear, he swore, and took care of such a big event as setting up the prince, could it be that there is nothing in her hand?"


    "At that time, my uncle was also on the side. My mother said that she had a list of central Korean officials they had started. If her father doesn''t do it, she will give the list to her uncle. My uncle holds a heavy army and is deeply trusted by the king''s grandfather. How can my father refuse? "


    The Empress Dowager''s expression was extremely frightened, "then why did he finally lay hands on the former king? That''s his own father! "


    Jing Mo was surprised and said, "brother Wang laid a poisonous hand on his father?"


    Jing Tui angrily said, "I''m not alone! No one! "


    Jing Leng ignored and nodded with a sneer, "it''s more than once! Aunt, do you remember the case of Mrs. Hu''s Witch cup at the beginning of last year? "


    Jing Mo recalled, "I remember that day when my mother drank a bowl of lotus seed soup, she suddenly had abdominal pain like strangulation. But it wasn''t found out at that time. It was Mrs. Hu who pricked a villain with the eight characters of mother''s birthday in the room... "


    Jing Leng said, "in fact, the lotus seed soup is added with a medicine juice made of horse drunken grass. This medicine means that horses will get drunk after eating it. If people take this poison by mistake, they may have unbearable abdominal pain. However, if this medicine is taken together with Xueshen, it can lead to unconsciousness. "


    "Ah..." Jing Mo exclaimed, "he''s going to kill his father! Only my father took... Snow ginseng every day to stop coughing. "


    "Exactly."


    Jing Mo asked again, "then why is it Mrs. Hu''s witchcraft? And I still remember that it was doctor Huang''s pulse. "


    "Because the man who poisoned the former king and tried to make the former king unconscious was Mrs. Hu''s father, a general of Zhou Jizhou who had just been discharged from military affairs at the end of last year. Huang Taiyi is actually the nephew of general Zhou. Both prosperity and loss. " Jing Ying smiled softly.


    "What?! On the day of the week, he had a great reputation. The former king trusted him. Why did he do this immoral act? " Jing Mo asked.


    "Then I have to mention his son Zhou min." Jing Ling said.


    "Isn''t Zhou Min connected with the king, the prince at that time?" Jing Mo asked.


    "Exactly. Four months ago, my grandson went to the three counties of pozhou to control water. It is said that this year''s flood in pozhou is particularly serious. Aunt, do you know why? " Jing Ling said.


    "Po Chau is flooded every year. It''s a little worse this year. Why is it strange?" Jing Mo asked.


    As if no one else was present, Jing Peng glanced at Jing Ti, who was expressionless, and said, "the reason why Po Chau floods every year is that there is too much quicksand in the upper reaches of the Luo river, resulting in too high riverbed in the lower reaches. Although it is flooding every year, as long as the imperial court controls the water in time, provides disaster relief in time and dredges in time, it will not affect the two counties of sandbar and mangzhou in the lower reaches. However, during the flood in pozhou last year, Sima Jiqing, who has always been experienced in water control, was transferred to Pengzhou. At that time, the king who was still the prince asked the former king to go to Puzhou to control the water. Zhou Min was his deputy envoy. Ji Qingyuan has a high prestige in pozhou. A loyal Deputy doctor, Liang Bi, found that Prince Ti and his staff were greedy for money from the ink court for disaster relief and deducted the wages for dredging the river, so that the river dredging was insufficient. Originally, to dredge the river channel, it was necessary to dig the silt at the bottom of the river to at least ten miles offshore in order to accumulate fertilizer and fertile fields. However, they were greedy for saving trouble and only dug the silt from the bottom of the river to the shore to achieve temporary results. As a result, at the beginning of this year, the rain washed all the silt on the bank into the river again, and the upstream quicksand every year. As a result, the water level suddenly rose this year, affecting the downstream sand and mang counties. When Liang Bi found out about it, he secretly collected evidence and handed it over to Sima Jiqing, former Puzhou. Ji Qingwen was so angry that he immediately returned to Beijing to present the evidence to the former king. However, the crown prince knew in advance that he wanted to harm Ji Qing on the way. Unexpectedly, Ji Qing escaped many times, so he had to turn to the palace and stretch out a black hand. "


    The Empress Dowager trembled with anger. "That''s his father!"

 Chapter 143

    "Fortunately, Grandma Wang drank that bowl of lotus seed soup for Grandpa Wang at that time, and Ma Zui grass can only make your stomach ache like a twist. It was doctor Huang who felt the pulse for Grandma Wang. A few weeks later, he told him that you were poisoned and put all the blame on Mrs. Hu. So when the former king ordered a thorough investigation into the case of the witch cup, he found the thing of the witch cup in Mrs. Hu''s room and secretly took the antidote for you. So your abdominal pain was relieved and Mrs. Hu committed suicide. At the same time, he also found the correspondence between Mrs. Hu and Ji Qing in her room. Poor Ji Qing, full of loyalty to the king, was copied by the whole family before he could reach heaven. He himself was immediately put into the prison, and all the doors were beheaded. Not only did he lose his life, but he was also falsely accused of having a private relationship with Mrs. Hu and ended up with a stigma of death. "


    The people in the room were stunned.


    The two people outside were also surprised.


    That week, it finally became the best portrayal of rabbit dead dog cooking. Doctor Huang died outside the city gate for unknown reasons.


    That few weeks ago, he just handed over his military power. His son Zhou Min is now the Sima of three counties in pozhou. Pozhou governs water every year. How can Sima be an innocent job? If the king wants to check, Zhou Min can''t escape. Zhou Ji naturally knows how powerful it is, and he also needs to seek ways to protect himself.


    If it weren''t for the rising war in the north, how could the days of the week be reused so quickly?


    Jing Qian trembled, "what happened later?" My father escaped the disaster at the beginning of the year before last. How come he


    "Later, the idea became uncontrollable in his heart. Just then, the queen sun Yao asked the Zhao women to cultivate a kind of Gu, which successfully fell on the king''s grandfather. Three months later, Grandpa Wang suffered from the gnawing of black insects every day, and the funeral was over... "


    He looked pitifully at the Empress Dowager: "Grandma Wang, do you know who put the poison on you?"


    The room was silent.


    Everyone was immersed in the newly received information, especially the Empress Dowager. She had already had enough psychological preparation for this matter, but she learned that the former king was killed because of a corruption case, and she was poisoned by him because she wanted to trace the events of that year. I felt cold all over and speechless. The tears she should have shed had long run out, and the sorrow she should have lamented had already experienced in the cold Hall of Ci''an palace. At this time, she just thought in a trance, how could the child she raised with her own hands become so cold-blooded and cruel when she was bent on finding a strong foreign child to protect him? Is this really her child?


    Jing Ti finally laughed, "ha ha, Jing Leng ah, Jing Leng, your story is really good. What on earth have you been stunned to frame me like this? Are you crazy? Don''t you think you can escape the crime of ruining the harem if you trap a few people like this? In my opinion, you have to add another charge - disrespect! "


    The room is still full of silence.


    The Empress Dowager woke up at first and immediately said, "Liang Er, you are stimulated too much tonight. Don''t talk nonsense here. You''d better go back to the palace and have a rest. When you wake up tomorrow, you will find that tonight is a dream. "


    "It''s too late..." Jing Leng smiled miserably.


    "What''s too late?" Asked the Empress Dowager.


    "I can''t live tonight. It''s a pity that Grandma Wang and my two aunts have dragged you down." He told all his ugliness. Those who know these things may not live, right? He turned to Jing Tai: "father, do it! If you still have a conscience, please let Grandma Wang and two aunts go! I just don''t want to be reconciled. I want to avenge my mother, but I don''t want to fall into the hands of this bitch today! This bitch is so insidious. Father, you let her sleep by your pillow every night. Aren''t you afraid? "


    Jing Tai''s beard was about to blow, and he shouted angrily, "come on!"


    Jiang Si rushed in again and Jing Ti said, "it''s no pity to die such an evil son! Take him out and shoot him with arrows! "


    Jiang Si and Wuhe fork the crown prince with one hand and go to the door.


    The Empress Dowager was already angry, "evil son, evil son! Tiger poison doesn''t eat its son. How can you say such a command! "


    Jing Tai looked around at everyone present and looked calm.


    Mammy Su had knelt down behind the empress dowager, her head on the ground, and she dared not make a sound.


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian were so numb that they wanted to have a dream.


    Jing Qian trembled and pushed Jing mo. Jing Mo boldly said, "you, you, oh no, king, what do you want? We are all your sisters, you... "She immediately thought that he could ignore his parents, wife and children. How could he let these two sisters live?


    The Empress Dowager took up her crutch and said, "you devil! How did I give birth to such a cold-blooded and ruthless devil? "


    Jing Tai laughed, "hahaha, am I the devil? Yes, I''m cold-blooded. I was forced to learn this and that since I was a child. I never slept a whole night. Since I became the crown prince, I have experienced 342 assassinations and 213 poisons. The sense of crisis has never disappeared from my life. I have to take a body in front of me when I sleep. I quietly eat a little arsenic before meals every day to increase my anti-toxicity! Mother, do you know all this? No, you never know. You will know that you are jealous with your father''s concubines and wives. After you married Huiyuan for me, you ignored me. Instead, it''s the six younger brothers who are not your own. You protect them day and night. You don''t know, my greatest sense of crisis comes from him! You gave him all your love. And I can only grow like a wild grass, struggling between my father''s trust and distrust day and night. I fight in the court, not for merit, but for no fault. But he was scolded by his father every day. Ji Qing, I just saved some money from the official Bank of river regulation, and he kept biting me. My father has been dissatisfied with me for a long time. If my father knows, he may abolish me. Mother, I have been the crown prince for 30 years! Thirty years. Can you imagine that a person who has been a crown prince for 30 years will eventually face the danger of being abandoned? So my desire for survival exceeds my need for the affection of my parents, wife and children. Mother, do you know all this? If I said, I didn''t do all those things, but she did them, would you believe me? "


    Jing Tai trembled and pointed to sun Yao.


    The Empress Dowager was very angry and pointed to him, "you! You... "Suddenly your head tilted and fainted on the sofa behind you.


    Mother Su quickly got up with her hands and feet, held the Empress Dowager and cried sadly, "empress dowager, Empress Dowager."


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian were also frightened. They quickly came and hugged the empress dowager, "empress mother, what''s the matter with you?"


    Then the room was full of silence.


    Jing Tai also felt something was wrong. He tentatively shouted, "Jiang Si?"


    No one answered, he again tentatively shouted, "five rivers?"


    "The old slave is here." This time, someone responded, but he didn''t come in. He was still outside in the yard.


    "Come in." Jing die ordered.


    "Old slave, I''m afraid I can''t get in now." The five rivers came in with a trace of a bitter smile.


    Jing Tai was shocked and said, "what''s the matter?"


    He knows the Kung Fu of five rivers. What kind of situation can make him unable to enter? What about his 100 Pro Royal troops?


    He subconsciously wanted to go to the door to have a look, but Wuhe stopped him, "king, don''t come out." There was a trace of panic in the voice.


    "Ha ha ha."


    The situation took a sharp turn, and the prince stepped in again. This time, he was not alone, followed by four Deputy generals.


    The people in the room didn''t walk up in the army, but they didn''t recognize who it was for a moment.


    Jing Tai recognized the uniform and shouted, "are you from the fifth military camp?"


    A few days ago, he borrowed more than 10000 disabled soldiers from Zhao Ting of the fifth military camp to encircle and suppress Jingyuan. Did the prince collude with him?


    Just thinking, there was a sound of weapons crossing outside. It sounded like a random arrow, but it was blocked by weapons. Someone shouted, "don''t let the old man run away."


    There was a faint hope in Jingtai''s heart.


    Sure enough, after a while, I heard the voice of five rivers from afar, "my Lord, the old slave will go!"


    He knew where he was going and couldn''t help but settle down.


    Zhao Ting came to Beijing the day before yesterday to resume his post. He lived in a post station, but there were only 200 soldiers and horses with him. Other people and horses are not allowed to enter the city according to the system. Even if all the two hundred people came here and intersected with the 100 short soldiers of the pro imperial army he arranged outside, I''m afraid it would be damaged. As long as Wuhe gets to shuntianfu, at least one or two thousand people can be transferred, whether they are seconded to the government soldiers or the five cities army and horse department. As long as he drags the crown prince, nature is safe.


    Since the Empress Dowager was unconscious, the two people on the roof couldn''t see it anymore. Jing Yuan hurriedly took Zhuo Xi to the dark place on the ground. He immediately saw Jiang si falling to the ground with arrows all over. He should have been shot into a Hedgehog at that time. Jing Yuan looked up and quietly walked towards a leader.


    Then a relaxed voice slipped in and broke the sword and crossbow in the whole hall, "why don''t you ask us to watch such a lively play? Aren''t we a family? "


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi came in hand in hand.


    Prince Jing said angrily, "uncle Liu, how did you get in?!"


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "Ben Hou only said a word to Zhao Ting, and he let me in ~"


    "What? Is it really Zhao Ting outside? " Jing Tai hasn''t turned around yet.


    Jing Yuan nodded, "I also asked how the snake meat on the verdant mountain tasted that day."


    When he talked about the verdant mountain, Jing Tui looked a little unnatural and changed the topic, "what are you doing here if you don''t go to your wedding night?"


    "It''s said that brother Wang borrowed his younger brother''s house to judge the prince at night. For a moment, my younger brother was curious and couldn''t help coming to see the excitement."


    "You......" Jing Tai''s intuition and blood gas surged up. Are these people prepared to come tonight? He looked suspiciously at Jing Yuan and looked around at the people in the hall. They were all women and children. His only reliance on the five rivers was also controlled outside. It is estimated that their two dark guards are more or less dangerous. Now, what are their intentions when their husband and wife appear? Jing Ying and Zhao Ting collude together. Is there Jing Yuan''s share here? No wonder he can''t help it again and again. He just felt that his cold hair was all up, and his intuition was facing an unprecedented crisis.


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "it''s rare that brother Wang and sister-in-law Wang look up to my Guang''an Marquis so much that they want to borrow my Hefeng hall as a Taoist temple. Xi''er, the inner courtyard belongs to you. You say, "how can we stand idly by?"


    Zhuo Xi also said with a smile, "of course not. I''m afraid if we sing for three days and nights, will we go back?"


    Jing Tai''s face changed, "what are you talking about? What happened outside? " Otherwise, why wait three days and three nights?


    "Don''t brother Wang know? The people in the military camp have surrounded my Guang''an Marquis house. Now the Marquis house can''t fly out. "


    "What!?" Jing Tai''s face was livid, "Shen Yu, he dares!"

 Chapter 144

    Shen Yu, the chief manager of the military camp, is the brother of Queen Huiyuan! The military camp won the favor of the first king and has been responsible for defending Kyoto. It is the main urban defense army in Kyoto City, with at least 30000 people. The city defense army guarded Kyoto. Although it was not allowed to enter the inner city, it could walk in the city. On the contrary, it had no order to leave Beijing. Otherwise, he didn''t need to mobilize the hands of Zhao ting and Wang Feng to come thousands of miles. Not long after he ascended the throne, he couldn''t spare anyone to replace Shen Yu. He felt that the pro imperial guards and the five cities army and horse division were in his own hands, and he couldn''t see the enemy for the time being. Therefore, he wanted to slowly figure it out. Unexpectedly, he was hurt today. He was a little regretful.


    What''s more, this is the Marquis of Guang''an. On weekdays, if he knew that the Marquis of Guang''an was surrounded, he would be too happy. But when he was here today, naturally he would not think that these people came for the Marquis of Guang''an. They must have come for themselves. There is Zhao Ting inside and Shen Yu outside. When were they linked together? Jing Leng just became the prince for the first time. How could he be so sophisticated and connect the two early?


    Jing Leng was originally the victim of today''s incident. I think he was unprepared for it. Were these two people summoned here temporarily? According to the report of the five rivers ahead, all the eunuchs around Jing Leng were detained in the stable, and none of them escaped. Who reported the letter?


    Also, when did the Marquis of Guang''an become so fragile? In the past, the people he sent to test said that it was difficult to sneak in because there was no water here. Why did you just let someone wrap it up today?


    Sun Yao''s face was blue at this time. She thought of the Crown Princess Chen who had not been in her eyes. Chen was born in a humble family. It was said that she was an adopted daughter loved by Queen Huiyuan. She entrusted her to him before she died. Her relatives didn''t have any help. Therefore, she didn''t think much when she heard that the crown princess wanted to go back to Danyang palace to take care of the children, so she assured her to go back. I didn''t expect such a disaster!


    "Why don''t you dare?" A loud voice came in, and then a big man came in. It was Shen Yu, the prince''s uncle. He arched his hands to Jing Tai and said, "my Lord, I will hear that the king is trapped in the Marquis of Guang''an. General Zhao sent a letter to the last general. It is incumbent on the last general to help him. "


    Hearing this, Jing Ti could not help but give birth to some hope, "general Shen means..."


    Shen Yu raised his head and said proudly, "naturally, it is to ensure the safety of the prince and the king!"


    Jing die a listen, cold everywhere.


    The prince and the king!


    He put the prince ahead of the king!


    Jing Tai looked very blue and looked at the prince. "Prince, what are you going to do? Do you want to learn from the Yuyan rebellion? "


    The women in the back were shocked.


    Zhuo Xi poked Jing Yuan aside, "what is the chaos of Yu Yan?"


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "the disintegration of the Yu family in the previous dynasty was that the Yu king and the Yan King competed for the throne, led troops to surround the palace and wanted to force the emperor to abdicate, which caused great chaos in the world. Later, the heroes came together, most of which disintegrated the royal family of the Yu Dynasty and divided it into today''s five countries. The chaos of Yu Yan is the root of the chaos in Yu Dynasty. "


    Prince Leng naturally understood. Hearing the speech, he laughed again. Instead of answering Jing ti''s questions, he took Shen Yu''s hand affectionately, "uncle, you''re coming. I haven''t seen you for a long time. Are you in good health? How''s your aunt? Cousin Jue must have been sunburned into a black charcoal head in the northwest camp now? "


    Shen Yu laughed, "leng''er, which of your series of questions should I answer first?" He patted Jing Leng''s hand and said, "we''re not in a hurry to catch up with the past. Let''s solve the problems in front of us first." After that, his eyes flashed over the people in the room, with the spirit of killing on the battlefield, and finally his eyes fell on Sun Yao.


    The prince nodded, pointed to her and said, "that''s her. She killed the mother and brother in those years! She found the Zhao family''s Gu Shu! "


    Jing Tai also woke up. Now it''s not a matter of investigating the ranking. It''s important to ensure his own safety. Seeing that Shen Yu''s target was Sun Yao, he pushed sun Yao out without thinking, "yes, I really didn''t know that I would harm Qingwu and zhen''er when I was deceived by this daughter. General Shen Da, if you want revenge, just look for her! "


    Everyone was surprised. Unexpectedly, the king made such a move. He immediately looked at Sun Yao, but saw that sun Yao was no different.


    Jing Ti continued: "the poisonous insects in the first king''s house and the water insects in the mother''s house are all cooked by this woman! I didn''t do anything. It''s all about her. You should have guessed it, too! I know now that you are innocent. " It was a naked slap in the face. Even Jing Yuan couldn''t bear to listen. He hurriedly took Zhuo Xi to see the situation of the Empress Dowager. He didn''t let go until Zhuo Xi took her pulse, shook her head to show that it was OK and fed another pill.


    Mother Su was also relieved. Jing Mo and Jing Qian looked at each other and saw hope from their eyes.


    Sun Yao seemed to expect all this, but said coldly, "king, after all these years, you are still so afraid of death. The river hasn''t crossed yet. Do you seem too anxious to dismantle the bridge so soon? "


    Jing Tai listened, suddenly covered his face and said, "bitch, what do you mean? You, what did you do? " The toothache came at a bad time. It seems that I am very angry.


    Sun Yao straightened his clothes, as if he had regained his noble demeanor. He looked at him coldly and said, "Your Majesty, in the eyes of this palace, do you know what your greatest skill is?"


    Jing Tai was like a toothache. He hissed his cool breath, covered his cheeks with one hand and said fiercely, "just say what you want to say!"


    "Your greatest skill is that you can completely remove your heart and remove anyone who poses a threat to you without emotion! Even if this person is your father, your mother, your wife and son. " She paused for a moment and looked at the prince. "This is something the palace can''t do until death. The palace still remembers the fear and pain that a small life slowly lost from the body that year. That feeling will be unforgettable in this palace. Speaking of it, Prince Yu, the palace would also like to thank you. If you hadn''t deliberately attracted a cat to scare me that year and let me have a miscarriage, so that I had to recuperate for six years before I became pregnant. I can''t feel the pain of stripping my children from my life in my life. It is also for this reason that I understand better how cruel a person should be if he wants to separate his parents, wife and children from himself! Therefore, from that day on, I knew that there must be today. "


    The prince shook his hair, smiled and said to sun Yao, "no, the queen mother wanted to deal with me today, not because she resented me for causing your miscarriage, but for the seventh younger brother?"


    Sun Yao said, "I''m just talking about things. How can I deal with it? Originally, today''s incident is only a small incident around the imperial palace. The result of the incident is whether it is a trial or a secret investigation by the Ming court. Who knows, the end of the matter was completely beyond our expectation. "


    The prince said, "I have always admired my father''s means, but now I have to admire you more. Over the years, my father has only me, my third brother and my seventh brother. After my eldest brother left, four brothers, five brothers and six brothers died. One of them fell from a horse, one of them killed himself with a sword, and the other died of a current epidemic. Doesn''t it have anything to do with you? Since you know there will be today, I''m afraid this is what you''ve been looking forward to for a long time? "


    Sun Yao put her hands elegantly in front of her lower abdomen and sighed gently, "since the palace knows that there will be today, how can we not plan ahead?"


    Jing Tai felt his cheeks hurt more and more. The pain made him very uncomfortable. Seeing the sofa on one side, he sat down and stood up again after a while, so repeatedly. At the moment, when sun Yao said this, he couldn''t help hating, "Sun Yao, did you do anything to me?"


    Sun Yao looked at him and asked, "Mr. Wang, do you feel abnormal pain at the root of your teeth? It seems that there is something to grow out?"


    Jing Tai flushed his eyes and gnashed his teeth, "bitch, what is this? Give me the antidote! " He was so angry that he didn''t even have to call himself a widow.


    Sun Yao looked down at him, "this is a kind of dream Gu. Don''t worry, you won''t die. It just wants to grow out of your roots, so that it can put its tentacles into your head and give you the best dream. How many people in this world dream of getting this dream bug. It took me ten years to cultivate the dream bug on you. Once you grow up, you will live in your dreams day by day. In the dream, there are all the people and things you are thinking about. No matter what you want is power and beauty, Menggu will meet you. Once you taste it, you don''t want to wake up again. Hahaha, king, you said, "I''m so kind to you, how can you bear to let me pay for your relatives you don''t pay attention to?"


    Jing Tai stood up angrily and grabbed her neck, "bitch! How dare you even attack me! "


    Shen Yu immediately found the key point, "who do you mean by them?"


    Sun Yao''s pinched face turned red and couldn''t say a word.


    Shen Yu came forward with a knife, Jing eliminated the pain, and let go of sun Yao.


    Sun Yao coughed hard, pointing to Jing Leng while coughing.


    Jing Leng''s face changed greatly, "you said, I was also poisoned by dreams?"


    Sun Yao laughed, "cough, ha ha, you want to kill me, but you find the wrong person. It is said that Gu will become a pair, kill the mother and solve the son. One of you is a son Gu and the other is a mother Gu. Only when the mother Gu dies will the child Gu have a chance to live. It''s just that Feng Zhao gave it to me. When he gave it to me, he didn''t specify which one was the son and which was the mother. Ha ha ha... "


    Before the words died, Jing Ti pulled out his last life-saving dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Prince Jing quickly. Prince Leng hasn''t sobered up from the blow of Gu poison in himself. On the contrary, Shen Yu around him has been galloping the battlefield for many years. He reacts very quickly and stretches out an iron arm to block his dagger. Prince Leng reacts, grabs Jing ti''s hand and makes a force with his backhand. He originally wanted to take the dagger from his hand. Unexpectedly, Shen Yu stretched out his other hand to grab the dagger. The two men''s hands hit one place, and their strength was superimposed. They watched the prince hold the king''s hand and stabbed the dagger into Jing''s heart

 Chapter 145

    Everyone was stunned by the accident.


    Jing Tai covered his chest and felt that the strength of his whole body disappeared in an instant. He sat down on the ground and leaned against the legs of the sofa. He thought of his life, his father, his mother, and so many people around him. He just thought it was a big mistake. He looked blankly at the people around him, some standing far away, some looking closer. Among them, there were their own brothers and sisters, their own wives and sons, their own big brothers and subordinates, oh, there was their own mother lying behind. It''s nice that my mother is still in a coma. She won''t see herself so desperate and embarrassed. Their voices are getting farther and farther away. What about his own voice? Still there?


    He tried to pronounce a few syllables, "sun, sun Yao, Yao''er..."


    Sun Yao heard his voice three feet away from him and leaned over, "my Lord, my concubine is here."


    How many times did he dream back in the middle of the night? When he woke up from his nightmare in a cold sweat, he would involuntarily call, "Yao er..." and she would gently answer, "my Lord, my concubine is here." Sometimes there was joy and sometimes a touch of intimacy in that tone. As long as he heard this, he would slowly calm down and fall asleep again.


    However, this time, he could not hear whether her tone was alienated or intimate, panic or joy. He just wanted to ask the last question, "I, I ask myself, I treat you well. Why do you..."


    Sun Yao looked up and looked at Zhuo Xi who had been hiding behind the people from a distance. Then she smiled and replied, "naturally it''s for my son. Our son. "


    He stared, "huan''er, huan''er, he''s only six months..."


    "Six months, soon six, sixteen... As long as all your other sons are dead, your country can only leave you the only remaining blood huaner, whether he is six months old or just six days old. Are you right? "


    The prince said hurriedly, "although the prince has been poisoned, even if the prince is dead, don''t forget that there are three younger brothers!"


    Sun Yao chuckled. "Don''t you know that a few days ago, he heard the story of his father killing his father and Shi''s mother in Liangzhou. Has he been talking nonsense?"


    Jing Tai spewed out a stream of blood from her mouth. Her right hand trembled and pointed at her, staring round, "you, you snake and scorpion woman..."


    Sun Yao approached his ear and said something gently in his ear.


    The blood in Jing ti''s mouth gushed out again, and he couldn''t say a word any more. He stared at Sun Yao. At last, he didn''t mention it, and the whole person was paralyzed on the ground like mud.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t understand what the queen sun Yao looked at her that day.


    She did not expect that her wedding night would become the king''s death day.


    At that time, everyone present was frightened. The king of a country died. That was an earth shaking event!


    Prince Yu covered his cheek on the spot and screamed with pain. Sun Yao looked on coldly.


    Shen Yu looked at Prince Leng sadly. At last, he hit him with a knife, knocked Prince Leng out, and retreated with Zhao Ting''s men and horses.


    The situation reversed again. At first, Zhuo Xi didn''t understand why.


    Later, Wuhe led the troops of the five cities army and horse division to surround the Hou house again outside. It was found that Zhao ting and Shen Yu, who originally surrounded the Hou house, had left.


    Zhuo Xi realized that if, according to sun Yao, Prince Leng also fell in the dream Gu, and Prince Leng was not liberated when Jing die, but broke out in advance, no one could guarantee the final fate of Prince Leng.


    In this way, no matter how many soldiers Shen Yu and Zhao Ting have, no matter how many excuses, without the main Lord, there will be no foundation to rely on. What from the merit of the dragon, glory and wealth are illusions.


    Although they did not make it clear at that time that they wanted to force the palace to revolt, at that time, under such a situation, they stood next to the crown prince, which means they stood opposite to the king. Fortunately, the powerful enemy opposite them has died, and the successor behind them is the beneficiary of interests, but they may not be charged with conspiracy. But if there is a real large-scale conflict, it is not easy to explain to the world.


    At this moment, it is the best way for them to avoid confrontation with the people of the five cities army and horse department as far as possible, and they can leave room for everything in the future.


    Then the queen mother woke up. Bearing her grief, Mammy Su simply told the Empress Dowager what had happened.


    The Empress Dowager was stunned for a long time and shed two lines of sad tears. She struggled to get up, called five rivers in and arranged to return to the palace.


    So Jing ti''s body was transported back to the palace by Luan when he came. As soon as he returned to the palace, the big golden bell in the palace rang 81 times.


    The queen sun Yao returned to Bai''an palace under the care of the palace maid eunuch.


    Zhuo Xi accompanied the Empress Dowager back to Ci''an palace with Jing Yuan.


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian returned to their residence in the stormy waves.


    A sleepless night.


    Although the whole city of Kyoto wept bitterly because of the 81 bell, the morning morning of the next day went on as usual because the government did not notify to cancel the morning of the next day.


    Jing Yuan, dressed in linen filial piety clothes and holding the Empress Dowager''s decree, hurried into the main hall of Zichen hall. He was surprised to find that crown prince Leng was standing at the top of the team, also dressed in hemp and filial piety.


    All the officials put a big white filial piety suit over their official uniforms.


    Several well-informed in the court had learned the truth of the king''s death. They were surprised to see the prince standing in the hall as if nothing had happened.


    Others who didn''t know why thought that the king''s funeral day must be the crown prince. They wanted to go up and greet him, but they were hesitant to see him with a gloomy face and filial piety.


    When the supreme officer of the palace had an order, the eunuch shouted the command.


    "Xuan -- empress dowager Yizhi -"


    Jing Yuan opened the Yi Edict and read it out. There are three meanings: first, the king''s old illness broke out, and there was no way to return to heaven. Unfortunately, the whole country mourned, and all rites were carried out according to the system; Second, stop all recreational activities during the national funeral and have no marriage bonus for 90 days; Third, from now on, all government affairs will be handled by the crown prince.


    With a long sigh of relief, the prince sat on the side of the first seat under the throne and began to listen to politics.


    Jing Yuan hurried back to Ci''an palace.


    As soon as he stepped into the inner hall, a teacup fell towards him.


    Jing Yuan flashed sideways, knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager and said with a smile, "empress mother, who ate the bear heart and leopard courage to make you angry?"


    The Empress Dowager got up again and threw a dish of preserves beside her. "Who dares to make me angry except you who are so bold?"


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly ran over, picked up the preserves stained on Jing Yuan one by one, ran back to the Empress Dowager and said angrily, "empress mother! What''s wrong with you? You''ve lost the preserves I''ve worked hard for three months. It hurts me if you don''t. what a waste. "


    Mammy Su couldn''t help laughing.


    Jing Yuan has a black face. Knowing that he can''t hide it from the empress dowager, he simply admits his mistake. "Empress mother, my children''s ministers know that they are wrong, but you have just recovered from a serious illness. You should be relieved. You''d better listen to Xi''er tell you ghost stories. Don''t be angry about these idle things."


    The Empress Dowager looked at the pair of living treasures. One did not love her husband, but loved the candied fruit. One actually said to tell ghost stories to keep a happy mood. He was not surprised, angry and funny. He immediately lost most of his anger and sighed, "let you supervise the country, but you changed the purpose of mourning the family without authorization. If this is a business, tell me, which is not a business?"


    At that time, I shouldn''t have let Jing Yuan write Yizhi for me for a moment. No wonder he wanted to blow outside under the pretext of ink dry after writing. Asshole took his seal and quickly covered it. I didn''t have time to take a look at it.


    Jing Yuan gave a look, Zhuo Xi immediately understood and sent a cup of fire reducing tea. Seeing that the Empress Dowager took over the tea Gu steadily with both hands, he knew that she had calmed down her anger. Then he looked bitter and said slowly, "empress dowager, the king is in great mourning, and the crown prince''s prison state is well deserved. You let me be an uncle''s prison country. What''s the face of the crown prince? Once a rumor comes out, doesn''t it want to make those who have a heart ready to move? Can you bear to see the flames of war again? In addition, although the crown prince has made a big mistake, he can''t abolish it in this name, otherwise he will only arouse people''s suspicion about what happened last night. The deceased is very big. If he defiles brother Wang''s reputation, the empress will be uneasy. Finally, today''s minister saw the prince''s valiant appearance and did not see any sickness. I''m afraid there will be a turn for the better. After all, he is brother Wang''s blood, and his ministers don''t want him to make any mistakes. "


    The Empress Dowager thought carefully and found that there was no loophole in what he said, so she had to nod wearily, "what you said is reasonable. However, after all, his hands were stained with his father''s blood and he was seriously ill. How could he be emperor? "


    He didn''t dare to answer this. He had to move his kneeling knees and whispered with a smile, "empress mother, can you let your children get up first? The son minister didn''t sleep all night last night and stood all the time. His legs have long lost strength... "


    The Empress Dowager quickly distressed him up and told Zhuo Xi, "help him to the side hall to have a rest. Oh, yes, you''ve been mourning for your family all night. Let''s have a rest together." She thought a little and said, "yuan''er, you''d better go to the Ziyang palace where you rested when you were a child. You can have a rest where people have been looking after your family. It''s better to leave the political affairs to the prince, so as not to wear out my yuan''er. Speaking of it, last night was your wedding night. You go. " Then she winked at Zhuo Xi, and Zhuo Xi''s face turned red.


    Mother Su quickly gave Zhuo Xi a virtual hand, "Madam Hou, you can go to Ziyang palace with the Lord to have a good rest. After returning to the Palace last night, the old slave made his own decision and asked people to prepare. Even the earth dragons in that place have long been hot. If there is me here, you can go to sleep. "


    Jingyuan''s eyes brightened and stared at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi''s face became hotter and hotter. She quickly blessed her body and retreated with Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan led her to Ziyang palace in the West.


    "Ziyang palace is the place where I grew up. My father has always loved me. Since I was a child, I have taught both civil and military skills. Although there was fear and sadness in this place, at first there was rumu imperial concubine, and then there was Qingmu imperial concubine, which was more happiness and happiness... "


    Along the way, Jing Yuan talked to her about her childhood. Zhuo Xi thought of the innumerable assassinations and poisons that Jing Ti had suffered since he was made Prince the night before. She was glad that Jing Yuan had the love of his parents since childhood. He had a strong temper and character. He traveled around and had an open mind. He was much stronger than Jing ti''s mentality.


    After about a cup of tea, they entered Ziyang palace.


    The pattern of Ziyang palace is similar to that of other palaces. There is a main hall with side rooms on both sides and countless rooms behind.


    A maid eunuch knelt at the door to meet him. But he didn''t look at it. He took Zhuo Xi''s hand and went straight to the inner room behind the main hall.


    When he reached the Kang, Jing Yuan pulled Zhuo Xi upside down and was about to drill into the quilt. Zhuo Xi was startled and hurriedly pressed against his chest and said, "I haven''t washed yet. It''s no better here than at home. People should fetch water. "


    Jing Yuan had a reluctant face, but she was very satisfied that she used the word "home". She couldn''t bear to brush her mind. She thought that if it was more comfortable to wash, she didn''t object. She shouted, "come on, bring a basin of hot water."

 Chapter 146

    Someone answered and soon brought water in. Zhuo Xi saw that the maid in waiting lowered her head and lowered her eyes, steadily put the basin on the shelf, twisted the towel and handed it over. She nodded and handed it to Jing Yuan, but no one answered for a long time. Turning around, he was lying on the Kang, closed his eyes and looked tired.


    Zhuo Xi softened her heart and said, "go out first. Well, I''ll call you."


    "Yes, madam Hou." The maid of honor stepped down.


    Zhuo Xi unfolded the towel and wiped it carefully on Jing Yuan''s face. The towel ran along his forehead and closed eyes to the bridge of his tall nose, then the sides of his face, and finally his lips and chin. Jing Yuan suddenly chuckled, grabbed her hand, kissed it on her lips, and whispered, "lady..."


    Zhuo Xi shook her hand and pulled out her hand, "stop making trouble." Then she quickly picked up the towel, washed it in the basin and twisted it again. Turn around and look at him again. OK, I''ll let you pretend to sleep. She opened a smile on her lips, turned around and covered his face with the towel. She rubbed her hands vigorously, but the next moment he groaned comfortably. Frightened, she shook her hand again, covered his mouth in tears and laughter, and looked around guilty.


    She knew he didn''t sleep. She wanted to tease him, but he teased her. She had to throw the towel into the basin and say bitterly, "you won."


    He proudly hooked his lips, moved in, patted the edge of the bed, "lady, come up quickly."


    "I haven''t washed yet." She went to the edge of the basin, washed her face and rinsed her mouth carefully, then called the maid in waiting to take the water away, and then slowly took off her blouse.


    When he went to bed, he found that Jing Yuan didn''t even take off his shoes. He patted him on the face. "Don''t pretend to sleep. Get up and take off your coat and shoes."


    He also felt that his whole body was too tight. Vaguely, he reluctantly raised his hand and untied his waist. He suddenly relaxed a lot. He murmured something again, and turned his head and didn''t move.


    Zhuo Xi smiled helplessly, took off his shoes and sighed, "Alas, there is a big difference between being married and not being married."


    In the past, he took off his coat and went to bed fresh. Just one day after his marriage, she was reduced to waiting for him to wash and undress.


    She struggled to take off his outer shirt, pulled it out from under him and threw it on the shelf of the screen. Then she breathed and lay down. The Kang is already warm, but the quilt is also needed. She turned and reached over Jingyuan to pull the quilt. Jing Yuan turned outwards, and they faced each other with their lips close to each other.


    He stretched out his hand and went deep into her mouth, sucking her honey hungrily.


    Just when she felt short of oxygen, he let go of her and gently chewed her lips. His other hand touched her waist and gently untied the buttons of her clothes. While looking for a gap, he gently said, "now change to a husband to serve you. It makes you feel that there is no difference between being married and not being married."


    Who wants you to serve like this? Zhuo Xi saw the flame beating in his slightly narrowed deep eyes. His whole body was soft. His hand stretched out to pull the quilt also shrank back, and said softly, "cold."


    Jing Yuan immediately stretched out his big hand, lifted the quilt and covered them. His big hand reached into her skirt again and gently rubbed the fullness of her chest. He moved down, bowed his head and held the bud on the top of the abundance.


    Zhuo Xi gave a hissing groan, grabbed the skirt, kept the last trace of Qingming and asked, "it''s a national funeral now..." and the man is still your brother. Doesn''t he say that the elder brother is like a father


    The movement of his body stopped for a moment. Then he buried his head in her chest and took two deep breaths. Then he supported his upper body, slowly pulled down her clothes and covered them again. Finally, he turned and lay down on his back.


    There was only his heavy breathing in the air. Zhuo Xi knew that he must be full of disappointment without looking. He turned around and hugged him, buried his head in his neck and shoulder, and said softly, "it doesn''t matter, isn''t it the 60th? We''ll just wait... "


    Jing Yuan turned around and hugged her tightly, as if to embed her into his own body, and whispered in her ear, "I really want to..."


    She had never heard him so explicit. The sticky voice was buzzing in her ear, and the shame came up from the bottom of her heart. She suddenly remembered that she was longer than the new era of the 21st century. They had done the most intimate things. What was it to say something explicit? What''s more, they are husband and wife. Such words can only be said if they really like them... What kind of response does he want?


    Thinking like this, she forced herself to press the reserve and shyness in her heart, and gently said in his ear, "I also want to..." just like the password of sesame to open the door, she immediately felt the things that had been hard against her thigh move.


    So it was in exchange for his vigorous rubbing. After a long time, he seemed to taste a bit of blood on the tip of her tongue, and then he let her go with chagrin. He pecked at her red and swollen lips and looked at her watery red cheeks and sparkling eyes with great reluctance. What should we do? He had to suffer like that... Suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, "anyway, yesterday was our wedding night. If there was one, it would be said that he was pregnant yesterday..."


    Is that okay? Zhuo Xi was stunned for a moment, and he felt a cold on his body, and the obstacles between the two quickly disappeared. Then she was completely lost in the flame he lit around her


    When Jing Yuan stood up and entered her, it was day again because of the support of his upper body. Although he pulled the curtain, the light was still relatively bright. He clearly saw his beloved close his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling gently, and his ruddy cheeks surging with charming lust. He moved slowly, watching the people below groan more and more comfortably, and his back arched slightly. He knew that he was going to succeed.


    At the last moment, a sharp voice came from the door far outside the tent: "Marquis, empress dowager, please move to Zichen hall."


    Jing Yuan was furious and fought her last bit of strength. She felt her fierce contraction and trembling body, and finally roared out from between her teeth, "get out!" Then he fell softly on her and didn''t move.


    For a long time, a gentle laugh escaped from her lips, and then the body trembling with laughter, together with him. He became angry with shame and bit the abundance on her chest.


    She exclaimed, because her chin was supported by his head, she could only see the top of the curtain and his black hair. She didn''t know that her body as white as jade seemed to be glittering in the shimmer of the curtain. She pushed him. "The queen mother called you."


    He said slurred, "No."


    "Huh? How dare you resist and disobey? "


    "If you don''t go, you won''t go." He kept gnawing at her.


    She keenly felt that the thing still in her body looked up and moved again. She immediately sounded the alarm and immediately begged for mercy: "ah, it hurts. And you''re heavy. Come down soon... "


    He finally raised his head, put his elbows beside her, propped up his body, looked at her pitifully, full of resentment of desire and dissatisfaction.


    She just lifted her eyes and swept down. She immediately saw the intimate body between the two people. Her cheeks were red. She pushed him and said, "it''s cold. You lie down."


    He had to lie down depressed to one side, carefully stuffed the corners of her body, and then took her with him in his arms.


    She suddenly said, "mother knows you''re resting and won''t disturb you for no reason. Let you go to Zichen hall. Something big must have happened! "


    "The biggest thing in the world happened yesterday. Where did so many big things come from?" Although he said so, he thought about it and slowly swallowed it and put on his clothes.


    Zhuo Xi''s mind turned quickly, "the big thing now is that the new king has ascended the throne. What happened to the prince? "


    He put on his clothes, sat down on the edge of the bed, looked down at her bright red lips, couldn''t help kissing her again, then patted her cheek and said, "don''t move. I''ll ask the maid in waiting outside to draw a basin of water to wipe you. Have a good sleep and I''ll serve you when I come back in the evening. "


    Zhuo Xi''s hand stretched out from the side of the quilt, found his thigh sitting on the bed and twisted it hard, "go and come back soon!"


    As soon as his eyes brightened, he immediately jumped up, "I would like to follow my husband''s instructions, for my husband will come back soon!"


    The point is not these two words, okay? Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes, listened to his footsteps in the distance, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.


    Jingyuan opened the door of the inner room, knelt down a little eunuch before meeting and kicked him, "just now you were shouting here?"


    The little eunuch was kicked out for two steps, quickly got up and knelt in front of him. Yu guangpiao glanced at Jing Yuan''s cold face and said, "Lord Hou, the Empress Dowager''s instructions, please move to Zichen hall."


    He looked up at the sky and said, "at this time, should the morning break up? Who is in Zichen hall? "Prince?" Even the crown prince should work in his Danyang palace.


    The little eunuch whispered, "the morning hasn''t ended yet. Yes, it''s the queen with the seven princes." He made a gesture.


    Jing Yuan looked cold and shouted, "don''t lead the way!"


    The little eunuch only got up and bowed to walk in front.


    Jing Yuan asked as he walked, "what''s your name? Where do you work on weekdays? "


    The little eunuch didn''t stop at his feet. He turned his head slightly and still bowed and replied, "I''m speechless. I sweep in the Zichen hall on weekdays. Originally, the people of Zichen hall were sent to Fuyuan palace to help. It was the big supervisor of Wuhe who thought that Zichen hall still had to keep two errands, so that the little one stayed. "


    Fuyuan palace is the place for funerals in the royal palace. The king suddenly died suddenly. Zi palace wants to do it now. Zichen hall can''t stop naturally, so it can only stop at Fuyuan palace, and the palace people who served in Zichen hall should also follow to Fuyuan palace. As a rule, the servants and maidservants who served the king were to be buried with them. If you have a chance to stay in Zichen hall, you have a chance to survive.


    He thought of the five rivers and asked, "what does the five rivers say?"


    "The five river warden was very sad and wanted to go with the former king. He said he went underground to continue to serve the former king."


    Jing Yuan asked about the business. "What happened in Zichen hall?"


    Speechless but cautious, looking around, there was no word for a moment.


    Jing Yuan smiled. "Now Wang Gang is going first, and all the waste is waiting for prosperity. What can''t be said?"


    Speechless immediately understood, the king died, and those eyes could know what he said, and who could he tell? What''s more, a hundred wastes are waiting for prosperity. Such a thing happened in the early days. The winner of the world is still unknown. Thinking of these, he was happy and whispered all the way to tell Jingyuan what had happened in the early days.

 Chapter 147

    It turned out that after Jing Yuan read out the order of Empress Dowager Yi and left, the prince sat in the vice seat under the throne and began to listen to politics.


    The most important thing is the title, funeral, catalpa palace, Mausoleum, mourning, funeral and other matters of the former king. The officials of the interior ceremony Department drew up some regulations according to the system overnight and discussed them with the officials in the court.


    There were eight posthumous titles alone, and the discussion was in full swing. The discussion had not ended for nearly an hour. Since Jing Ti had been in office for only more than a year, there was no effect of culture, politics and martial arts. Therefore, there were two schools of people arguing about "Literature" or "martial arts". Finally, the crown prince said with toothache, "since both literature and martial arts are not suitable, how about an as his posthumous title?" For more than a year, even if there is no great rule, it can at least be called national peace and public security.


    The flatterer immediately seconded the proposal. Don''t be cool. It''s called "Liang An Wang" for short.


    Then the ministers discussed some matters about the funeral, and also reported some major events such as the northwest Chen disaster and going north to resist the enemy in the past few weeks.


    Finally, a minister came forward and asked Prince Leng to ascend the throne as soon as possible on the grounds of "the country cannot have a king for a day".


    Another faction, on the ground that the bones of the former king were not cold, requested the prince to be filial for five or seven days, that is, thirty-five days, before he could ascend the throne. Anyway, Jingtai''s body will be suspended for at least seventy-nine days.


    However, the majority of Ministers who supported the early accession to the throne suggested that Zhan Houzhong should first divine a auspicious day, and then determine the date of accession to the throne no later. In short, the differences are only in the morning and evening of the accession to the throne.


    The proposal was seconded by the majority.


    But at this critical moment, Queen sun Yao appeared with seven princes Jing Huan in her arms.


    On the grounds that the crown prince was evil, rebellious and immoral, she said that the crown prince had no capital to ascend the great treasure. She also said that the crown prince was ill and could not be king.


    The hall was in an uproar.


    According to the law, killing or abusing grandparents or parents can be called "evil".


    Another minister asked how to be evil and lose virtue, and what kind of disease she contracted, but the queen kept it secret.


    Prince Leng is tit for tat. He denies that he is evil, rebellious and immoral. He claims that he is the prince of the east palace. It is right to inherit orthodoxy. At the same time, he asks for the ancestral motto that women should not interfere in politics


    Unexpectedly, the crown prince sent him to invite the Empress Dowager while saying that women should not interfere in politics.


    After hearing this, the Empress Dowager sent him to Ziyang palace to invite the Duke of Guang''an.


    Hearing this, Jing Yuan suddenly stopped and asked, "do you mean that the empress mother is also in the Zichen hall at the moment?"


    Speechless turned and bowed to answer, "the Empress Dowager passed you first. Although Ziyang palace is a little closer to Zichen palace, you have delayed for some time after all. I think her old man is waiting for you in Zichen palace."


    Jing Yuan''s heart was full of alarm bells. He turned around and started walking back and forth.


    Speechless and frightened, he chased after him and shouted, "Marquis! Lord! What''s the matter with you? "


    Jing Yuan rushed to Ziyang palace without stopping. It turned out that the Empress Dowager wanted him to rest in Ziyang palace. Fortunately, he found out early. He was so frightened that a cold sweat came out of his back. When he reached the inner room, he turned his head to the back and said silently, "don''t come in."


    He kicked open the door of the inner room and ran to the curtain. He was relieved to see Zhuo Xi sleeping like a flower.


    He picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on her one by one. Zhuo Xi woke up with sleepy eyes, "eh" and asked, "why did you come back so soon? I just fell asleep... "


    Jing Yuan was terrified. "Go, it''s too late."


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "what''s the matter? What happened? "


    "It hasn''t happened yet. When something happens, it''s too late. We can''t go all our life."


    Zhuo Xi woke up for eight minutes, grabbed her clothes and put them on her, "what is it that she can''t go all her life? Someone is going to do it to you? "


    Jing Yuan said with a bitter smile, "yes, the moment I fear most is coming. Will you come with me? "


    "Of course I''ll go with you. But where are we going? "


    "Go out of the Palace first."


    Soon they packed their clothes and opened the door. They saw wordless kneeling outside the door. Another group of palace maids and eunuchs knelt in a row.


    Speechless, seeing Jing Yuan coming out, he reached up and hugged his leg, sobbing, "Hou ye, where are you going? The Empress Dowager is still waiting for you. Don''t... I''ll die if I don''t take you... Wuwu... "


    Jing Yuan kicked him aside and kicked him on his lower leg. He heard a crisp "click" and howled like a pig without a word.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned for a moment. She didn''t understand why he was so cruel.


    Jing Yuan took her for two steps, then she stopped, touched him for a while, took out two bottles, and ran back to the crying wordless, "take the blue bottle orally, your leg injury will recover faster. When you hand over the red bottle to the empress dowager, you will say that I entrusted it to you. Take one capsule a day to dispel your anger. "


    Speechless trembled, took the medicine bottle, kowtowed and thanked.


    Zhuo Xi turned to follow Jing Yuan and went out.


    Jing Yuan glanced, "but I''ll keep it for two or three months. What medicine do you want to give? "


    Zhuo Xi understood that this was Jing Yuan''s bitter meat trick. I hope he can escape the death penalty. He just entrusted some medicine. I also hope he can make up for his mistakes in front of the Empress Dowager and suffer less.


    Jing Yuan took her all along the path, avoiding the patrolling eunuchs and bodyguards, and came to the periphery of a garden.


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was the wind garden she came to last year.


    She thought of the strange old eunuch.


    Jing Yuan took her and knocked six times in front of the closed door.


    After a while, the door opened.


    Jing Yuan took her and walked in together.


    It was the old eunuch who opened the door. He smiled and said, "here you are." Neither did the eunuch in the palace kowtow and shout Hou ye when he saw Jing Yuan, nor did other subordinates see him fighting. Instead, it was as natural and casual as seeing them every day.


    But seeing Jing Yuan''s blessing, he gave him a half salute and said, "Feng Bo," and pulled Zhuo Xi, "Xi''er is already my wife. Don''t scare her when you see her in the future. "


    How can you introduce her to others for the first time? Shouldn''t it be said, who is this?


    Did he always mention himself to the old eunuch named Feng Bo? And what does "again" mean? He knew he was startled when he entered here by mistake last time?


    Although Zhuo Xi felt strange, she didn''t have time to think about it. She learned from him and gave him a half gift, "Hello, uncle Feng."


    Feng Bo didn''t pinch, but generously received their half gift, nodded, repeated "good good", and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face. He touched and touched on his body, found a jade pendant that looked old and handed it to Zhuo Xi, "the old slave has nothing but this jade pendant that has been with him for decades. I''ll give it to you as a wedding gift."


    Zhuo Xi was really startled again and quickly waved her hand, "you can''t. how dare we take your personal belongings?"


    Feng Bo didn''t speak any more, but looked at Jing Yuan with a smile.


    Jing Yuan picked it up for her, "you can''t quit because of the gift from the elder. In this way, I thanked uncle Feng. "


    Feng Bo smiled and nodded, and then led them all the way to the depths of the medicine garden.


    Along the way, I often had a few laughs with Jing Yuan.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t have time to pay attention to them, but when she saw them, she found that many herbs had grown new leaves. She wanted to stay and study them well, but she thought they were fleeing. Although she didn''t know where to escape, the first thing was to leave the Palace first, so she had to endure the itch from the bottom of her heart, follow their footsteps and turn around in the medicine garden, and finally stood in front of a wall of violet.


    In April, the purple rose orchid bloomed thickly and hung all over the wall. You can smell the pungent fragrance from a distance. The leaves haven''t grown yet. Instead, the fufangteng wound on it has green leaves.


    Fengbo pulls open the dense vines and reveals a cave full of weeds.


    Zhuo Xi was amazed. The leaf period of Viola is roughly opposite to that of fufangteng. In summer, it overlaps. The entanglement of the two varieties can make this wall dense all the year round. She carefully took Jing Yuan''s hand and walked in.


    Feng Bo didn''t send them away. He just handed Jing Yuan a torch at the mouth of the cave, and then began to pick up and pull back the weeds they had trampled on. Jing Yuan nodded, said "take care, Fengbo" and entered the cave.


    Feng Bo slowly led Teng man over and covered the hole again.


    Zhuo Xi followed Jingyuan and walked with deep and shallow feet. At first, she occasionally asked, "who wants to deal with you?"¡° What are they going to do with you? "¡° Will they send a sea arrest warrant for us? " But seeing that he didn''t say a word, he thought that all the people in the palace except sun Yao were his close relatives, and sun Yao was afraid that he didn''t have the power to make Jing Yuan afraid to escape, so he thought carefully and was afraid, so he stopped talking.


    Soon they came out of the cave.


    There is still a garden outside the cave, but the flowers and plants are higher than people. Similarly, turning east and West, she felt that she had walked several times more than the medicine garden, and finally they came to a river.


    Jing Yuan skillfully pulled a boat out of the reeds more than one person high by the river. After they got on the boat, they drifted all the way down. Finally, he stopped by an unknown mountain village.


    Jing Yuan smiled and said to her, "I have used this escape route for more than ten years. Once someone wants to chase me in the palace and I can''t fight, I''ll run out of this way. I''ll swagger back in a few days and tell my parents that I couldn''t stand the old pedants of the Imperial College before sneaking out of the palace. Do you think the assassin is too brainless? For more than ten years, no one has found this road. "


    Can ghosts find out? First, someone in the medicine garden will watch the wind for you, and no one will lead the way. It is estimated that you will be dizzy in the medicine garden. Even if you find a cave and come out in the garden, you will not get out of such a large garden until you die. Finally, even if you find a boat by the river, there are so many shores, and they are on the shore at random. It''s strange that they can be found.


    Zhuo Xi flattered him with a smile, "I am the smartest person in the world. You can find such a complex route. I''m curious that the boat has floated back, but how can it? "

 Chapter 148

    "Naturally someone took it back."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and thought about the dark guards who followed him like shadows. He thought that maybe he had arranged someone to make trouble with the ship here just for his very occasional use. He remembered and asked, "what about Xiao soul and Jianyun? Didn''t come out with us? "


    Jing Yuan was also calm, "I let them go out of the palace by themselves. We didn''t follow after we entered the wind garden."


    "Oh," Zhuo Xi asked again, "how old were you when you first used this route?"


    Jing Yuan looked up proudly, "nine years old."


    Hiss, Zhuo Xi took a breath of air conditioning. When he was nine years old, he was still struggling to learn the problem of time, distance and speed in grade three, right? He began to avoid all kinds of assassinations when he was nine years old... She reacted instantly, pressed down her heartache and continued to flatter him, "Wow, you are so smart! You can play such a complicated maze at the age of nine! "


    Jingyuan smiled and took her into a village hidden in the mountain depression.


    It''s getting dark.


    With their harmless smiles, they easily borrowed a night at the home of a warm-hearted village woman.


    "We are remote and poor here. There is nothing delicious. Before my master comes back, you''ll gather together and eat two. When my master comes back, if he''s lucky enough to shoot a hare or something, let''s have another meal. "


    Aunt Zhao said and set them with bowls and chopsticks.


    "Aunt, it''s really a big trouble for you."


    "No trouble, no trouble. I''m afraid you can''t get used to it."


    "Then we''re welcome."


    Zhuo Xi stuck out her tongue. She was already very hungry and was not polite. She picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of porridge.


    The first instinct is to spit it out. This is not porridge, but some coarse grain rice bran. It seems that there is a thin grain skin floating on the water. She resisted this impolite behavior and looked at Jing Yuan. She was surprised to find that he ate with relish. She didn''t know what to ask, so she had to slowly swallow the porridge in her mouth and feel the slight pain of the chaff scraping her throat.


    She saw aunt Zhao standing next to her and quickly asked, "aunt, please sit down and eat together."


    Aunt Zhao said quickly, "Er, I''m not hungry yet. You eat." When she finished, she heard her stomach cry.


    She touched her stomach awkwardly and said, "this season, we usually don''t eat until noon. It''s still early."


    It was eight o''clock in the evening at Xu Shi. Zhuo Xi looked at the sky and said strangely, "it was dark at Xu Shi..." they had no money to buy food, but had money to light candles?


    Aunt Zhao smiled, "let''s order pine branches here at night. It doesn''t cost money. Eat later, you can sleep better, and you will be more energetic the next day. "


    Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao gave us some food, which was very uncomfortable. This silver hairpin is not worth much money. Let me leave it to you as a souvenir? "


    "No, no, no, it can''t be used. Just two bowls of bran porridge is really worthless. We really can''t get anything. Don''t dislike it. "


    Jing Yuan patted her hand and motioned to put away the hairpin first. He asked, "aunt, how many people are there in your family?"


    "There are only three people. There is also an Anwa pillar. He is only eight years old and can''t eat anything. The pillar went hunting with his father. "


    Hunting in the mountains at the age of eight? Not afraid of anything? Zhuo Xi was secretly surprised.


    "When do they come back on weekdays?" Jing Yuan did not see the same color, and talked with aunt Zhao.


    "Sometimes I''m lucky. I''m a little early, sometimes I''m a little late, and I don''t come back until dark. Our mountain is still very safe. There are no big beasts. The old hunters in the village have been fighting for decades, and they haven''t heard of any big beasts. "


    Zhuo Xi was relieved to hear her say so.


    Aunt Zhao was a little uneasy. She got up and looked at the door and muttered to herself, "it''s getting dark. It''s not easy to go. If you can''t get there, you''ll come back earlier. The older you are, the more confused you are, and the bigger you are, the less sensible you are. It''s always worrying."


    Seeing a black spot from a distance, her heart was pulled up again.


    The black spot also saw her and began to shout from a distance, "her mother, no, the post was bitten by a snake!"


    "What?!" Aunt Zhao was shocked and ran forward.


    Jingyuan and zhuoxi heard the news, dropped their dishes and chopsticks and ran to the door.


    Aunt Zhao had already rushed up, holding the pillar on her husband''s back while crying, "pillar, pillar, don''t scare your mother. How are you? Can you hear me? "


    Lao Zhao was anxious and even more upset, "shut the fuck up and cry! It''s all right. You''re crying like something! "


    Jing Yuan has run to him and wants to take over the child on his back.


    Lao Zhao leaned over and looked at him defensively, "who are you? Who are you? " He also saw Zhuo Xi standing at the door of his house.


    Aunt Zhao wiped her tears and said, "Lao Zhao, they came to stay by our village, not bad people."


    "Walk around, don''t you see our house is in chaos?"


    "Oh, Lao Zhao, what''s wrong with your pillar?" The neighbor across the street came out to help when he heard something.


    "What a bad luck! Today, the bamboo rat didn''t dig it, but dug through a snake''s nest. Without time to hide, the pillar was bitten by the snake. "


    The neighbor was also stunned, "Oh, the snake bite can be big or small. Is it poisonous?"


    Lao Zhao had strided into the house and carefully put the child on the bed. The child had long been unconscious. His right leg had been swollen into a big steamed bread and was black. Aunt Zhao cried and rummaged through the boxes. "How many horses were left to eat grass before?"


    Lao Zhao scolded, "that horse swallowing grass is for the treatment of traumatic injury. This snake venom is useless!"


    "What do you say is useful? I''ll pick it right away! "


    Lao Zhao choked and scolded, "I want to know, I''m a doctor! You dead woman, stop howling! "


    The neighbor also said quickly, "come on, I''ll lend you that unicycle. There''s snake venom here, which can''t be delayed. Go to Lijiagou to find Doctor Li!"


    "I have to walk all day to Lijiagou. It''s dark. I don''t know if I can come in time?" Lao Zhao said without delay. He found a kettle and threw it to Aunt Zhao, "go and pour water!"


    The neighbor said, "whether you come or not, you have to go! I''m going to tidy up and push the car out. "


    Suddenly, the stranger felt the bed in the room. Why didn''t he touch it


    When Zhuo Xi saw that Lao Zhao had left the patient, he could get close to the column and carefully looked at the wound on his leg. While taking out his handkerchief and tying it to his thigh, he asked, "Uncle Zhao, when was the column bitten?"


    "Look, it should be just after midnight." Lao Zhao looked back at her movements and said strangely, "will you see a doctor?"


    When Aunt Zhao heard the question, she dropped the half filled water bag and raised a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "madam, can you cure snake venom?"


    "Aunt Zhao, please bring a basin of hot water and a towel. I''m not sure if I can cure it. "


    Lao Zhao shouted again, "don''t waste time if you''re not sure! Clean up quickly. I''ll push him to Lijiagou. "


    Aunt Zhao ran to the stove to fill the water and cried, "it''s a day''s walk to Zhaojiagou! It''s dark again. Who knows what will happen on the road? In case there is no time... "


    Zhuo Xi took her handkerchief and washed the wound on the column with hot water. She was taking out a dagger to cut the wound.


    Lao Zhao had found the remaining coins from the corner and carefully stuffed them into his pants belt. Seeing Zhuo Xi''s action, he hurried over and shouted, "what are you doing? Go away and don''t waste my time. " Then he would push Zhuo Xi away.


    Jing Yuan dodged and grabbed his hand. Lao Zhao ate pain, glared at him angrily and said, "Sir, I''m going to take my pillar to see a doctor. What do you mean?"


    Jing Yuan didn''t answer him, but asked, "Xi''er, are you sure?"


    Zhuo Xi cut the wound with a knife, stained with a little black blood, put it on the tip of his nose, smelled it, and replied, "now it''s only a quarter of an hour, just three quarters of an hour, and his legs will swell like this. I''m afraid it won''t take three hours, and the toxin will invade the heart pulse, which is powerless."


    It''s too late to send it to Lijiagou. Aunt Zhao knelt down with a bang and burst into tears.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "this snake is extremely poisonous. I think the wound is bloodless, bruised and red. The black blood inside has a strange smell of strawberries. I guess it should be a poisonous snake called red thread snake. It has black hair, a red line on its back, and its head is triangular, but so?"


    Lao Zhao stayed for a long time and suddenly knelt down, "miracle doctor, miracle doctor, you save my family! My mother-in-law gave birth to three children and fed him a single seedling. Miracle doctor, please! "


    Aunt Zhao quickly knelt down and said, "madam, please help me! We will repay your kindness as cattle and horses! "


    Zhuo Xi looked at Lao Zhao, "I''m not sure whether it can be cured. Uncle Zhao, you haven''t answered my question. Did you see the snake? Is it a red snake? "


    Lao Zhao nodded like pounding garlic, "yes, yes, the snake was fast, but when it bit the pillar, I reached out and grabbed its seven inches, and then threw it out from a distance. It''s what you call a triangular head. It''s black all over and has a red line on its back. "


    Zhuo Xi felt a white porcelain vase from Jing Yuan''s arms with a sigh of relief. "This is what I usually use to detoxify. Although I can''t detoxify the snake venom for the time being, it can delay the spread of the snake venom. Aunt Zhao, please bring a bowl of warm water and let the pillar take it first. "


    Aunt Zhao answered in surprise and got up to look for water.


    Zhuo Xi asked while squeezing the black blood on the column wound with her hand, "now I need someone to suck out the snake venom from the child''s wound, and I also need someone to find a kind of herbal medicine called zitenghong. You can divide the work."


    Aunt Zhao blurted out, "I''ll suck snake venom."


    Lao Zhao asked hesitantly, "madam, if you suck snake venom, will you be poisoned?"

 Chapter 149

    Zhuo Xi replied: "generally, drug users will be slightly poisoned, but if there is a wound in the mouth, it will let the snake venom directly enter the blood, which is very dangerous."


    Lao Zhao said, "fuck, you know more herbs than I do. You''d better find herbs. I''ll take snake venom! "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. She thought Lao Zhao was afraid of poisoning before she asked. Unexpectedly, it was so, but they discussed the division of labor themselves, so she didn''t say anything.


    Aunt Zhao raised the head of the pillar, pried open his mouth with a spoon to give him medicine, and said, "don''t be wordy, Lao Zhao. You know the road in the mountains better than me. Hurry to find the purple tenghong. After I fed him the medicine, I''ll give him snake venom. Don''t waste time!"


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and said, "don''t worry, old uncle. I''ll take one pill to Aunt Zhao first. As long as there''s no wound in her mouth, she''ll be fine. If anything happens, if you find zitenghong and bring him back soon, it should be no big deal. "


    Lao Zhao thought and nodded, "well, I''ll go and come back quickly. The miracle doctor, tell me what Wisteria red looks like?"


    "Purple Teng red, usually grows by the water, is a purple leaf, but the leaf stem is red. Remember to pull up the whole plant with roots. If it blooms, you can''t have it. This kind of grass is rare, but if there is a water snake''s nest by the water, there must be this kind of purple Teng red next to it. You should also be careful. If the red snake is bitten again, chew the purple tenghong root, apply it to the wound, chew the leaves, and take it, and you''ll be fine. "


    Lao Zhao wrote it down carefully. Without kowtowing, he got up and left in a hurry. At the door, he heard him say a few words with his neighbors.


    Aunt Zhao had fed the medicine, put down the pillar and lay down. She soaked a bowl of salt water according to Zhuo Xi''s requirements, knelt in front of the bed and waited for Zhuo Xi''s next instructions.


    Seeing that the black blood was almost squeezed, Zhuo Xi asked aunt Zhao to take an antidote, looked at her mouth, repeatedly confirmed that there was no wound in her mouth, instructed her to bend over the wound, suck out the poisonous snake, rinse a mouthful of salt water, and then repeat these actions. It was not until aunt Zhao''s blood turned red that Zhuo Xi took a breath and turned to find that Jing Yuan had already stood at the door to enjoy the moon.


    Aunt Zhao remembered to kowtow to her again. Zhuo Xi quickly stopped her and told her to take good care of the pillar, so she ran to enjoy the moon with Jing Yuan.


    "You..." Jing Yuan started, but didn''t go on.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "do you want to ask, why don''t I take drugs and blood for my children?"


    "No, no, of course, let his parents do such dangerous things."


    "No, as a doctor, these are what I wanted to do. But not today. "


    Jing Yuan sideways took her into his arms from behind. "Can you save people and see the Yellow calendar?"


    Zhuo Xi giggled, "the Yellow calendar doesn''t look at it, but drug blood, make sure there is no wound in the mouth."


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and suddenly woke up. She couldn''t help smiling with her head on her neck and shoulders.


    Zhuo Xi flew a blush on her face and hit the back of his hand twice, "you still laugh! It''s all you! "


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    I don''t know how long later, a figure appeared at the head of the village and shouted from a distance, "madam! I found it! "


    Aunt Zhao immediately ran out when she heard this, "it''s shanwa! He also helped us find it. " She smiled and shouted, "shanwa, thank you!"


    Shanwa ran to the front and gave Zhuo Xi a grass. Sure enough, it had purple leaves and red stems, but, "why didn''t it have roots?"


    "Oh! I was so excited to see the grass that I dialed it and ran back. Or I''ll dial again. " He said he was about to run.


    Aunt Zhao grabbed him. "Shanwa, don''t wait. Maybe his father will have good news later."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t say much, and gave the herbal medicine to Aunt Zhao. "Aunt Zhao, don''t wash it with water, wipe it clean, chew it up and eat it for the pillar. Do not use water. Better wake up the post and let him swallow it himself. It can detoxify three parts. "


    Aunt Zhao was so happy that she thanked her and went into the house.


    After a cup of tea, Lao Zhao came back and brought back several complete purple tenghong trees. Zhuo Xi immediately smashed the roots and applied them to the wound of the column.


    The pillar woke up and stared at the two strangers in the room.


    Aunt Zhao said, "pillar, this noble man saved you. You must kowtow to them tomorrow. "


    Zhuo Xi quickly shook her head, "no, No."


    The pillar nodded and asked, "Mom, I''m so hungry."


    Aunt Zhao asked, "madam, can I have porridge?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you can drink salt water in a quarter of an hour after taking medicine. Now you should be able to drink some porridge. If you are thirsty at night, remember to dilute salt water for him. Salt free water will be available tomorrow morning. "


    Aunt Zhao nodded again and again.


    Zhuo Xi said, "at night, it depends on whether he has a fever. If he has a low fever, put a cold towel on his forehead."


    Lao Zhao has knelt beside him silently for a long time.


    Jing Yuan has always turned a blind eye to this.


    Zhuo Xi saw that what should be told was told, so she stood up and found Lao Zhao kneeling.


    She asked in surprise, "Uncle Zhao, are you..."


    Lao Zhao said with a bitter face, "two gentlemen, I have offended you in front. Please forgive me."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "you are also eager to save people. It''s nothing. Get up quickly. Instead of kneeling here, why don''t you go to the whole room and let my husband and wife rest? "


    Lao Zhao nodded again and again, "look at my elm head. I only have this room in my family. I could have come out to give noble people a rest, but it''s not convenient to move the column. Don''t worry, I went to shanwa''s house next door to borrow a house. He''s the only one in his family. "


    Then he got up and slipped into the next room. After a while, he came and invited Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi to go together.


    Zhuo Xi told aunt Zhao again that if the column was really hot, she came to call her, and Jing Yuan came to the house the same morning.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    The two of them simply washed and went to bed. The beds in the countryside are not as warm as the Kang they used to sleep on, and the bedding is not as soft as the silk quilt they used before. But it''s much better than the yepu they slept in the verdant mountain and on the way back to Kyoto from Liangzhou. Besides, there''s no choice here.


    Zhuo Xi held Jing Yuan''s waist, but it was not cold. She was not sleepy for a moment, so she wanted to talk to him, "you don''t want to ask me about taking drugs and blood, so what do you want to say to me?"


    "I mean, what if you have to follow me to live such a wandering life in the future?"


    Zhuo Xi carefully asked him, "the man who did it, is it the empress mother?" Otherwise, who has so much energy in the palace that he can run away? Jing Tai is dead, the biggest guard force in the palace has collapsed, a new emperor has not yet emerged, and naturally there is no new loyalty force.


    He gave a stuffy "um" and sighed, "although the palace is where I grew up, I came all the way and looked at the palace wall, either bleeding or lonely. Either way, I don''t want to get myself into it. "


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t bear that he was in pain again, so he joked, "Oh, so sad, how does it sound like the deep palace woman?"


    Jing Yuan''s hands began to divide restlessly, and his lips stuck to her ear and whispered, "I''ve never been happy inside the palace wall! It wasn''t fun at noon. Let''s do it again. "


    Zhuo Xi exclaimed, "no, this bed board is so hard... It must be sour and back pain tomorrow..."


    Jing Yuan said, "then I''ll be down here... You said ten times to compensate our wedding night... Come up quickly..."


    ¡­¡­


    The next day, when Zhuo Xi got up, Jing Yuan was no longer around. She went out of the room where she stayed. Aunt Zhao was at the door as if she had been waiting for her. Seeing her coming out, she hurriedly greeted her and asked, "madam, how did you rest last night?"


    Zhuo Xi resisted the desire to stretch and nodded at her, "good. How''s the post? Did you get hot last night? "


    Aunt Zhao led her home and said, "when she got a little hot, I covered his forehead with a cold water towel as you said yesterday, and then the fever subsided. I can eat a big bowl of porridge this morning. Madam, come quickly. I''ve cooked porridge for you to eat. "


    Zhuo Xi first went to the main room and looked at the column. He was full and lying in bed in a daze. He was not afraid of life when he saw her coming in. He smiled at her, "aunt, listen to my mother that you saved me. I want to thank you. "


    Aunt Zhao slapped her directly, "what are you shouting about? You want to call your wife."


    The pillar smiled at her.


    Zhuo Xi looked at his wound, tied it with a piece of rag at will, took the cloth strip apart, and asked aunt Zhao to take some mashed Wisteria red roots and apply them to him again. Then she wrapped it carefully with the cloth strip, and then said, "the foundation of the column is good. Don''t touch the water these days. You can go down to the ground after your feet don''t hurt in two days."


    Aunt Zhao thanked her so much that she wanted to kowtow to her according to the column. Zhuo Xi quickly got up, "there are not so many false gifts. I''m really hungry. Aunt Zhao, did you put your meal in yesterday''s place?"


    "Yes..."


    Zhuo Xi sat down and asked, "aunt, have you seen my husband?"


    "He had breakfast early in the morning and went to the back mountain with Lao Zhao."


    Zhuo Xi was having breakfast when suddenly a young man in coarse cloth ran into the house and knelt down straight towards Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi was startled and looked at Aunt Zhao suspiciously.


    Aunt Zhao was also very surprised. She came and asked, "Liangzi, what are you doing?"


    Liangzi''s face was ashamed. His lips stammered for a long time without saying a word. His face turned red.


    Aunt Zhao asked with concern, "what''s the matter with you child? Is your mother... "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly asked softly, "is someone in your family sick?"


    Liangzi nodded and murmured again, his face redder.


    Zhuo Xi put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, stood up and said to him, "take me to have a look."


    Liangzi''s face brightened in an instant and stood up, but his face was still hesitant. He swallowed a mouthful of water, made a determination and said forcefully, "I, I have no money!"

 Chapter 150

    Aunt Zhao slapped him on the head, "who told your wife to charge for seeing a doctor?"


    Liangzi touched his head and felt a burst of joy. "I heard uncle Zhao say that the pillar was saved by a female miracle doctor this morning. I wanted to ask the goddess doctor to take a look for my mother. You, you really don''t charge? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "take me to have a look?"


    Liangzi led the way in front of her happily, and whispered to her about her mother''s condition, "I slipped when I went to the stream to wash clothes last winter, and my waist bone has not been good. I went to Lijiagou several times to ask Dr. Li to see it, but I, I have no money. As soon as I heard that I had no money, Doctor Li ignored me. I can only listen to the suggestions of other uncles in the village. Sometimes I pick some herbs and sometimes I pick some herbs and apply them to my mother. At first, it was good. I can''t get up in the past two months... "


    Zhuo Xi followed Liangzi to a broken hut. The thatch on the top was thick and solid, making the house airtight.


    When I entered the inner room, there were no walls, not even a table. A simple bed was built in only one corner. A person can be seen lying on the bed.


    "Mom, mom, wake up. The female miracle doctor has come to see you." Liangzi gently pushed the woman on the bed.


    The woman woke up with muddy eyes.


    "What do you call your mother?" Zhuo Xi asked.


    "All of our Zhao villages are surnamed Zhao. My father ranks ninth. People in the village call her Zhao Jiuniang."


    Zhuo Xi reached out to feel her pulse, looked at her wound, touched her waist bone, asked Zhao Jiuniang a few questions, stood up and said to Liangzi, "Liangzi, now I don''t have any medicine at hand, I''ll go and find some herbs first. Burn some hot water first, and then borrow twenty rust needles. "


    Liangzi asked excitedly, "the miracle doctor means that my mother''s disease has been cured?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "your mother''s waist bone was damaged. I''m afraid it was caused by that wrestling, but because of the cold winter, she didn''t discharge the moisture in time. So the moisture repeatedly haunts the wound, so that the bone injury of the waist is not good. Later, I will use a needle to expel some moisture for her, and then take herbal medicine for internal and external application. It will get better slowly. But it''s not that fast for a hundred days, so we can only treat it slowly. "


    Liangzi happily knelt down and kowtowed, "thank you, doctor." Zhuo Xi picked him up with a smile.


    He was about to leave, but he called out "doctor, please stay". After that, he went to one side of the stove to make trouble. Finally, he took a frozen leg of some animal and handed it to Zhuo Xi, "doctor, there is nothing delicious in my family. Only this frozen meat has been buried under the ground. If you don''t dislike it..."


    Zhuo Xi wanted to refuse. After thinking about it, she nodded, "my husband and I just passed by here. We don''t know how to deal with the frozen meat. Why don''t you cook it and add a dish for me and my husband at noon?"


    "Lunch?" Liangzi said in surprise.


    "Oh... Yes, my husband and I will have an extra meal at noon. You can cook some porridge or something?"


    Although Liangzi was suspicious, he still nodded, "no problem, no problem. I''m going to boil water now."


    Zhuo Xi stepped out and thought that he was not familiar with his life. If he didn''t go to find Jingyuan first, he would stroll in the direction indicated by Aunt Zhao.


    Turning a mountain corner, I saw a long jade figure standing on an earth slope and looking ahead.


    The figure made her feel lonely and disappointed for no reason. Obviously, it was just a back figure. She couldn''t see his expression at all, but she just felt that the figure exuded a sense of solitude and strangers.


    She has always seen him, either cold and stern in front of her subordinates, or trying to please her. From the initial coldness and indifference to the present enthusiasm, even on the two escape routes with her, he is completely in the shape of planning and ready-made plans. It is rare to see him so melancholy and confused, as if he has a disgust for the future.


    Yes, it''s disgust. She doesn''t know how disappointed a person must be before he will dislike the future. Only hope once can produce disappointment.


    She knew what he always wanted to have, that is, sincere family affection. His father and mother made him regret, and his brother did such evil things again. Maybe the night before yesterday, maybe even earlier, his disappointment with his family had reached a certain peak. Until he was chased last night, did he finally feel disgusted with the way ahead?


    She rushed forward and hugged him from behind.


    Jing Yuan didn''t move. He said for a long time, "Xi''er, now I''m the only one left. I have only you."


    Originally, Zhuo Xi always felt uneasy in her heart. Instead, she smiled, "I''m the only person in the world."


    Oh, no, there''s another Lin Lang, that''s only two.


    Jing Yuan knew that she meant that she was not the daughter of the Wu family, but also alone and had no relatives. She couldn''t help turning around and hugging her, "that''s just right. We both have no family and no king, so we can only depend on each other. You are very popular in this broken mountain village. I''ll depend on you to support me in the future! "


    She said with a grin, "I''ll see a doctor and apply medicine later. You''ll hunt and build a house ~"


    If he hunts, will his skill be overused?


    But she suddenly woke up, "although I''m not the real daughter of the Wu family, the Wu family is still my mother''s family in everyone''s eyes. You and I suddenly disappear from the palace. Will that man turn to the Wu family? "


    "No!" He said firmly.


    So sure? Zhuo Xi thought for a while, and felt that the man should not be angry with others, so she was a little relieved.


    She fell in his arms and said stiffly, "will we leave? When will you leave? "


    "Like here?"


    "I''ve only been here for two days. What do you like? It''s just asking about your plans. I''m just prepared. "


    He said indifferently, "if you like it, stay two more days. If you don''t like it, just leave at any time."


    "Sir, is there no next resettlement plan?"


    "The biggest resettlement plan of my generation has been completed."


    He said, took her face and kissed her hard.


    She struggled. The terrain here is so high. I don''t know if anyone will see it


    He noticed something on her mind and whispered, "huh? Yes? Do you have any plans? "


    "There''s no plan, just that a child begged me to treat his mother. I thought I had to wait two days to go."


    Jing Yuan understood, "it seems that you are very popular. You can do what you want in two days."


    "Yes."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly felt his whole body tight and stiff.


    She looked up and saw two dark figures running in the distance.


    This area is full of rolling hills and grasslands. There is no place to hide. You can see everything at once.


    Zhuo Xi said "eh", but he felt relaxed again.


    Jing Yuan let go of her, straightened her skirt and smiled, "it''s between clouds and shadows."


    She blushed instantly. She didn''t know if they had just seen it, but she wondered, "what about Zi Ran and Jian Yi?"


    "I sent them to dispatch troops before. It was such a dangerous scene that night. If the situation hadn''t changed, I''m afraid... "


    Zhuo Xi remembered that night, Zhao ting and Shen Yu''s troops surrounded the Marquis house, and the dark arrows stretched out from the eaves. If they were not familiar with the terrain, when he flew down from the third floor with her, he was almost shot into a hedgehog.


    If the king didn''t die by accident, if the prince was determined to reverse... Everyone in the living room of Hefeng hall, except the prince and the empress dowager, could not go out alive.


    "Where did they send troops? Liangzhou is half a month away from Kyoto. Even if people and horses are called, it will be half a month before the army reaches Kyoto. "


    Jing Yuan nodded, "Zi Ran did go to Liangzhou, but he didn''t go to Liangzhou to borrow troops. Jianyi went to Heyong pass. "


    "Heyong pass? Wang Feng? "


    "Well, Heyong pass is only a day''s journey from here. It is a barrier to the north of Kyoto."


    Zhuo Xi was silent. Isn''t wang Feng his nemesis? When did you become so familiar that you could borrow troops from him?


    Did you detoxify him in the barracks last time? Or what agreement did they make when Fengxin asked him for help?


    "Xi''er, there is no secret between you and me. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask me directly."


    Zhuo Xi told him her question.


    "Yes, Wang Feng sent someone to the Marquis house to send Xie Li after you detoxified 100000 troops for him. One thanked me and the other apologized. A Xin borrowed troops from him that time. After a short trip, he promised that he would help him if he needed it again. In addition to the relationship between beauty Wang and him, I don''t think he will refuse. "


    Apologizing to him means the encirclement and suppression of cangcui mountain, right? Even so, the two reached a settlement, but Wang Meimei''s sister is Wang Feng. Will he easily lend troops to his sister-in-law''s former fiance to rebel? Last time a Xin borrowed only one or two hundred soldiers from him. It was a small effort to save Jing Yuan. This time, if one is not careful, it will become treachery. This is no joke. She couldn''t help sighing, "the world of men and men is really suspicious."


    Jing Yuan laughed and swept away the confusion and haze before. "Xi''er, there is no eternal gratitude and resentment between people, only eternal interests. Last time he encircled and suppressed the Marquis, he only acted under orders. He has no personal grudges with me and is naturally easy to reconcile. However, you guessed right. He really can''t agree to borrow troops just for these reasons. If he borrows troops, it must be for revenge. "


    "Is there a gap between him and the prince?"


    He nodded, "Wang Feng has a younger brother named Wang que, who is seven years younger than him. He has been gifted and intelligent since childhood. The Wang family is also a big family. He was selected as the prince''s companion three years ago, accompanied by today''s crown prince Yu. Unexpectedly, it was only a month before Wang que went to the palace to accompany him. He was accused of having an affair with a palace maid. He was sent back to the king''s house after 20 days of punishment. He died that night. Wang Feng was just a small Sima Zhong doctor at that time. He could only secretly investigate the matter and found that it was Prince Leng who molested the palace maids and was scolded by sun Yao, who was then crown prince yuan imperial concubine. Wang que was just a substitute for others. Wang Feng wanted to avenge this, but unexpectedly, he was transferred to Heyong pass in the northeast. He never had a chance. Now that he has such an opportunity to avenge himself in the name of "rescue", how could he refuse? "

 Chapter 151

    But Zhuo Xi was confused. "In this way, his enemies include both the crown prince and queen sun. If he came that night, it would be king Qin who saved him and took the crown prince, which could be regarded as revenge. But Queen sun''s side can only be regarded as counterproductive. "


    "He has been suffering from no chance. Now there is a glimmer of hope that he can get rid of one of his great enemies. Why doesn''t he come?"


    "After the king''s funeral, he didn''t have an excuse to ''help the king'' and didn''t have to send troops. Should Yi come back? "


    Jingyuan shook his head. "No, although the plan is delayed, he is ready to go."


    Zhuo Xi was shocked, "why?"


    "It''s just that ''rescue'' has become ''Qing monarch''s side''."


    She still asked, "why? Who is Qingjun? Don''t be cold now? "


    Jing Yuan looked at the two men kneeling in front of him, "what news have you heard? Tell me? Get up first. "


    When they got up, Jianyun arched his hands and said, "since yesterday, a rumor has been circulating all over Kyoto that Prince Leng assassinated the former king and committed the crime of evil rebellion, so he can''t be king. The court is also divided into two factions: one is to quell rumors and support Prince Leng''s accession to the throne, and the other is to propose to abolish Prince Leng and set another seven Prince Huan as Prince and ascend the throne on a certain date. "


    Sun Yao''s action was not unexpected, "but she knew that the crown prince was poisoned by poison. She was afraid she would not live long. Why was she so anxious?"


    The shadow smiled, "if the former king is still there, Queen sun will naturally wait. But if the crown prince Liang ascends the throne, the seven Prince Huan becomes the younger brother of the king. How can he inherit Datong? "


    Indeed, if Prince Leng is buried for another day after he ascends the throne, only the two sons of Prince Leng are qualified to inherit the great treasure. How can it be the younger brother of the king? Therefore, Queen sun wants to remove Prince Leng before he ascends the throne.


    "If Prince Leng ascends the throne, Wang Feng can use rumors as an excuse to send troops to Kyoto to correct the great cause. But if the seven Prince Huan ascended the throne, he would be only six months old, and queen sun would naturally listen to the government. Wang Feng has the name of "Qing monarch''s side". Sure enough, everything makes sense. However, "Zhuo Xi paused," the general outcome of the ''Emperor''s side of the Qing Dynasty'' is the change of Dynasty, and the seven Prince Huan is the only child of the former King... "She looked at Jing Yuan''s appreciative eyes, and suddenly a thrill," no, it''s not the only one. There''s another in Wang Mei''s stomach! No wonder you say there is no eternal gratitude and resentment, only eternal interests. If the child of beauty Wang ascends the throne, won''t wang Feng become the king''s uncle? What a stone with three birds! "


    For a time, several people did not speak, and there was silence on the open hill.


    She suddenly asked, "but who can guarantee that the boy in beauty Wang''s stomach must be a boy?"


    "Ha ha..." Jing Yuan burst into laughter. The original serious and tense atmosphere was broken in her childish problem, "silly girl, you underestimate the means of deep palace!"


    Zhuo Xi was silent and immediately understood that even if they were not boys, they would try to make "her" become "him".


    Looking at the smile of Jian Yun and Jian Ying, this "silly girl" suddenly made her feel a little ashamed, determined to pull back a game, pointed to them and said, "my wife is looking for two herbs today, one is Duhuo and the other is gallnut. Go and find them for my wife!"


    The shadow between the clouds was sweating, "madam, what do these two herbs look like?"


    Zhuo Xi laughed and took a bad breath.


    When the four returned to Liangzi''s house, Liangzi had already cooked the water. When he saw that the miracle doctor brought three tall men in, he quickly moved three small wooden machines made of bamboo to them.


    Zhuo Xi knew that there was a shortage of food in the village. When Jianyun and Jianying were looking for herbs, she asked them to dig out the nests of several bamboo mice, and actually caught several huge fat mice. Jianyun threw the bamboo mouse in his hand in front of Liangzi, "borrow your stove."


    Liangzi looked at Zhuo Xi in embarrassment. Zhuo Xi glanced at the stove and immediately understood it. He said, "Jianyun, go to Aunt Zhao''s house diagonally opposite and ask her to help with the whole pot of food. We need to decoct medicine for the stove here. I''m afraid there''s no extra pot. "


    Jianyun was a little embarrassed. Without saying anything, he moved the bamboo mouse to Aunt Zhao''s house with Jianying.


    Zhuo Xi ordered Liangzi to boil water and decoct medicine while preparing an embroidery needle. She suddenly remembered that Jing Yuan had some pills in his pocket, so she went to find him. At a glance, I saw him squatting on the small machine at the door. When I saw her coming out and looking up at her, how funny it was. She couldn''t help laughing, "you''re so handsome... You''re sitting here like a little villager... Hahaha..."


    Jing Yuan didn''t think so, but stood up casually and immediately restored his cloud light and wind clear look. He stroked his pocket and said, "ah, it seems that a bottle is broken."


    Zhuo Xi groped nervously up and down, "where?"


    "Hahaha..."


    At noon, they had a full meal with bamboo mice. Liangzi saw that he had to melt the frozen meat and boil it into soup.


    Zhuo Xi looked at their dilapidated hut, thought about it, called him and asked, "do you want to learn some crafts to make money?"


    Liangzi''s eyes lit up immediately. "Miracle doctor, really? I dream to make money and let my mother live a good life. But I don''t know anything. I only go hunting with my uncles in the village. But I have little strength. I often don''t have enough prey to eat. How can I sell extra money? Doctor, you teach me, I can learn anything. As long as you don''t think I''m stupid. "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "did you make this bamboo bed board and small bamboo stool?"


    Liangzi nodded. "Grandpa Zhao Liu at the head of the village taught me."


    "Look, this bed is made of bamboo pieces. If there is no cloth on it, will there be meat? Is this small bamboo stool not peaceful and uncomfortable to sit on? Is the edge pricking? "


    Every time she said one, Ryoko nodded. She said, "I think there is a bamboo forest in the mountain behind. You can cut some bamboo later. Don''t be too tender or too old."


    Liangzi happily went to cut the bamboo. Zhuo Xi taught him to cut the bamboo into small pieces with a knife, put them in the water, scrape the edge with a dagger, and then teach him to bend the large bamboo tube into a right angle by burning. In this way, the new small bamboo stool is obviously better looking and easier to use than the old one. The edge is a curved bamboo surface, and the bamboo pieces are dense and flat.


    "In this way, you can make stools, chairs and beds. If the bamboo pieces are made smaller, you can also make baskets, dustpans and cages..."


    Liangzi''s eyes brightened as he listened.


    The next day, the news spread.


    For a moment, his house suddenly became a house surrounded by villagers. Aunt Zhao also came to watch the excitement with the pillar that just got out of bed and walked. After Lao Zhao came back, she also came to watch. She joked that she asked a miracle doctor to teach them any skills. They were really afraid of living a hard life.


    Zhuo Xi simply taught other villagers, "if there is thick hardwood on the East Mountain, it can be cut down to make furniture such as tables, chairs and wardrobe. The appearance is polished. It is painted with Tongdong to dry, and then painted again to dry. A total of eight coats of oil are painted. If you can''t use it up, you can transport it to other villages, towns and states to sell it... "


    The market potential of solid wood furniture is too great. She suddenly wants to open a furniture chain.


    The idea is out, but the craft can''t be practiced in a day.


    So the next day, the villagers cut wood and saw wood. They didn''t have suitable planers and other tools. They pooled some funds and sent three or four young men to buy in the town thirty miles away. Zhuo Xi suggested that they''d better invite an experienced carpenter


    On the fourth day, the boys who went to the town brought back not only some tools, but also a message: the ten small bamboo stools they had been consigned by Liangzi were sold out in just half a day, which made the whole village boiling.


    Then those with little strength learn bamboo skills from Liangzi. Those with great strength go to cut and tidy up first, and wait for the carpenters in the town to guide their craft.


    In addition to logging, Zhuo Xi did not forget to solemnly warn them, "there should be a limited selection of felling. Small trees should not be taken. They should also be cut and planted at the same time, so as to avoid future generations without green trees..."


    Then a few days later, Zhuo Xi suddenly found several young girls wandering in front of her home. At first she thought they were here to help. Men were busy. It was good for someone to serve tea and water. Later, she found that no girl had ever handed her a glass of water. Instead, from time to time, a girl hurriedly handed a bowl of water to Jingyuan and ran away with a red face.


    She found out that they were just trying to get together in front of Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan handed her the water in her threatening eyes, and she drank it up angrily.


    After being so busy for a few days, Jingyuan didn''t have any other plans or move to stay here for a long time. He only asked Jianyun and Jianying to go out for two or three days from time to time, and then came back to report some information and bring some clothes and food. Zhuo Xi was busy designing furniture for the villagers. Sometimes Jing Yuan would add some carving elements that Kyoto xungui liked on a whim. Zhuo Xi simply took him as a staff officer, and unexpectedly made a lot of furniture that she didn''t notice. For example, she always knew that a woman''s dressing box was very important, but she didn''t know that men regarded the printing box as an heirloom; For example, she only knows the screen, but she doesn''t know that the screen should be subdivided into ground screen, bed screen, hair combing screen, lamp screen, hanging screen and curved screen


    When they discussed the design, the time passed quickly.


    Only when she creaked on the new bamboo bed at night, Jing Yuan once asked, "what do you think of life in the countryside?" she replied vaguely, "very good, I feel very free and happy..." except for the sound bamboo bed and the unsound thatched hut... However, she still vaguely thought, Did you sound very loud just now?


    Yi day, she woke up vaguely and found that Jing Yuan was still asleep.

 Chapter 152

    She looked at the small window opposite the wall. It was already a little bright.


    She moved and felt as if she had been crushed.


    Put down your head, think about it, or close your eyes and continue to sleep.


    For a long time, her greatest wish was to wake up naturally. No insomnia, no nightmares, no alarm clock. Her wish came true unconsciously, mainly because of the man behind her... When she read it together, she immediately felt her heart become soft. If, if she could have a child... Would her life be complete with her previous life and this life?


    Her hands unconsciously caressed her abdomen.


    Then she immediately felt the fullness of the hand that had stretched out from behind and held her hand in a direction covering her chest.


    He patted her on the hand.


    Unexpectedly, Mao''s hands rubbed more boldly.


    Then there was no foreplay, and the hard behind rushed in straight.


    She couldn''t help screaming and holding back.


    Jing Yuan in the back chuckled, "Xi''er, your voice was very good last night." He never knew that the relationship between two people could be so happy; He never knew that he would be so satisfied when he heard the cry of his beloved. In fact, he knew that his greatest satisfaction was that after this earth shaking event, his Xi''er never questioned him, but followed his steps and listened to his decisions. And myself, just need to satisfy her occasionally overflowing curiosity, can completely appease her.


    Since she taught the villagers to make bamboo and furniture, with the consent of the village head, they gave their husband and wife a lonely, uninhabited yard at the end of the village. The yard is more than twenty feet away from the nearest family. The yard is very big, and the clouds and shadows are divided into one. Just yesterday, they were sent out again. So they have no scruples.


    So he spent the whole night remembering the sound. All night was filled with some kind of fire. Just worried about her sleeping soundly, she can only hold back motionless. As soon as she woke up, where could he hold back?


    She covered her face with her hands. "What a shame..."


    "Hahaha..." he was also very happy


    After breakfast, he said to Aunt Zhao in a warm voice, "could you please make a cage of dry food for us? We''ll take it on the road."


    They have been eating here with aunt Zhao these days. First, they can''t stand cooking by themselves. Second, uncle Zhao is learning the skill of making furniture and hasn''t earned money to improve their food. It happened that they brought a lot of rice noodles, vegetables and pork, which were stacked in their house. It happened that they also subsidized Lao Zhao''s family. At first, Lao Zhao refused to accept it. It was Zhuo Xi who said that the injured pillar needed supplementary nutrition. They accepted it with gratitude.


    Jing Yuan never asked for it for so many days. When he said so today, aunt Zhao naturally didn''t refuse. She just asked, "Grandpa, are you leaving?"


    This is also what Zhuo Xi wanted to ask. She hadn''t heard him mention it before. When Aunt Zhao asked for her, she looked at Jing Yuan.


    He replied with a smile, "isn''t it? Our husband and wife have been nagging here for too long. I''m afraid the family is worried and anxious. It''s time to go back. "


    Aunt Zhao said hurriedly, "your grace is so polite. But also, if my pillar is not in front of me one day, I will be in a hurry. Eun Kung and his wife have been out for so long, the family are naturally worried. It''s better to go back early. Yes, yes... "She wiped her tears." I don''t know when I can repay the kindness of my Lord and wife... "


    At Zhuo Xi''s strong request, the villagers did not dare to call her "miracle doctor", but "madam".


    "Grandpa and madam are leaving?!" A voice sounded in panic at the door.


    Zhuo Xi looked and hurriedly got up to help her, "nine Niang, why are you here? Your waist is not sharp yet, so it''s better to move as little as possible. "


    Nine niangs took Liangzi''s hand and knelt down and kowtowed to her. "Madam, I thought I could only lie in bed for the rest of my life. I thought I could not drag Liangzi down anyway. I wanted to find his father if Liangzi was older... But you came. You not only cured my waist injury, but also gave Liangzi the skill to support his appearance alone. I really can''t repay you as a cow or a horse... "


    Zhuo Xi sank her face. "Liangzi, don''t you help your mother get up quickly? Although your mother can walk now, she should stay in bed for rest in case of lumbar bone injury. She shouldn''t move much. What if she gets hurt again? "


    Liangzi was about to cry. "I asked my mother not to get up. She didn''t listen. She said she must come and kowtow to you... I also want to kowtow to you." Then he kowtowed again.


    "Well, now I''ve knocked my head. Please help your mother up." Zhuo Xi said to him helplessly.


    He hurriedly struggled to help Jiuniang up.


    Nine niangs asked again, "Grandpa and madam are leaving today? I have another thing to do here. I hope that grandpa and madam will leave a name, so that I can set up a memorial tablet of longevity and pray for grandpa and madam every day... "She handed over a clean white, washed yellow coarse cloth veil and pen and ink.


    Zhuo Xi said in surprise, "nine Niang, can you read?"


    Nine niangs said shyly, "I only know a few words. It was taught by my dead husband. He used to be a teacher in the village and would teach a few words to the children in the village. "


    She looked at Jing Yuan and said, "our husband and wife got lost in the valley. Fortunately, we met this village and had a chance to live. Speaking of mutual assistance and reciprocity, we can''t repay kindness, and the longevity memorial tablet can''t stand. We are happy that your days will be better in the future. " At this extraordinary time, they have lived here for so long that they can''t leave such obvious traces.


    She said to Liangzi again, "Liangzi, do you recognize the herbs I left you? After we left, you remember to cook soup for your mother every day. Don''t let your mother do heavy work for three months. Remember? "


    Liangzi burst into tears and nodded, "remember, remember, I want to make a lot of small bamboo stools and sell a lot of money to buy delicious food for my mother."


    She touched Liangzi''s head and said, "yes, if you have money, buy more bones to make soup for your mother. You have to eat more to have strength, okay? "


    The pillar also got up from the bed, limped over to kowtow to them, and was held by Zhuo Xi.


    Gradually, the people in the village knew the news that their husband and wife were leaving, and came to send them this food and that food one after another.


    Zhuo Xi''s hands were full of all kinds of dry food. She couldn''t stand it anymore. She shouted to Jing Yuan, who was standing idly by, "Hey, master, come and help!"


    Jing Yuan didn''t mind, but walked slowly over and picked it in her hand, "this, this stay, and this stay. Nothing else. Give it back to them. " With a look of disgust, those who were disgusted turned red and took things back


    Zhuo Xi got up impolitely. She picked up some of the things sent from behind. Those who sent food to be selected left happily, and those who were despised went back to pick up some food and sent it to them


    Aunt Zhao moved very quickly. She made dozens of pancakes in two quarters of an hour. Without a steaming drawer, Zhuo Xi really couldn''t count on too much. She was just packing


    Take away, but listen to a high horse hiss outside the door.


    As soon as Jing Yuan''s face changed, he strode outside to have a look, then strode in again, reached out for her baggage, picked up the four corners of the cloth spread out on the table and tied a knot.


    Then he took her hand and said to Aunt Zhao, "our husband and wife are leaving. Thank you for your hard work these days". He also told her to inform the people in the village. If someone asked, he said he didn''t know anything.


    Zhuo Xi was confused, but she always knew when to ask and when not to ask. At present, she had nothing in her hand. Even if she had something, how could she be as important as his thing? He obediently followed her to the village head and found several people pointing around a horse.


    At a glance, she recognized that it was Jing Yuan''s Mount stepping on the cloud. In the few days they ran back to Kyoto from Liangzhou, how could she not know it day and night?


    She ran up happily, touched its neck, and looked around, "eh, why don''t you see my Star chaser?" At first, in order to get a name louder than stepping on the cloud, she racked her brains to think of the name of chasing stars. Later, she wrote to Lin Lang and was laughed by her for a long time.


    She asked again, "why is the cloud here?"


    Jing Yuan smiled. "Naturally, it was sent by them."


    "Eh? What about them? "


    "Maybe I''ll go back to the Star chaser. It can be seen that chasing stars is not smart enough to step on the clouds - "


    "Hey -" she was angry. Don''t say that, chasing stars.


    Jing Yuan smiled again, ignoring her anger, took her on the horse and threw a fist at the surrounding villagers. "My husband and wife are leaving now. Thank you! See you later! " Like a Jianghu person, he jogged away leisurely all the way by gently clamping the horse''s belly and stepping on the clouds.


    She thought that maybe the clouds would wait for her somewhere in front of him with chasing stars. She didn''t ask much. She was sleepy in his arms. It was not until he turned a corner of the mountain and heard him shout "Zha -" that he was startled to run wildly. She suddenly woke up, firmly grasped his hand holding the reins, looked up at his side face above her head, "is something wrong?"


    He closed his lips tightly, his face was cold, and only gave a soft "um" sound from his throat.


    When she saw that he was on his way, she was shocked. Did the people in the palace chase him?


    What about clouds and shadows?


    How did TA Yun get here?


    How did the people find their tracks? Is it that Jianyun and Jianying were found in and out of Zhaojiagou a few days ago?


    She could only hear the wind whistling in her ears and the tread of the horse under her.

 Chapter 153

    I don''t know how long she ran. She obviously felt that she was tired and her foot speed slowed down.


    With a cry, Jing Yuan jumped off the horse''s back and stretched out a hand to let Zhuo Xi jump down and let him step on the cloud to drink water by the stream to catch his breath.


    Zhuo Xi finally asked him, "who sent the man?"


    Jing Yuan said in a deep voice, "it may be the prince." Only when the prince''s people came, Jianyun and Jianying would separately lead away the pursuers and buy them time to escape.


    As soon as the voice fell, he changed his look. He picked up a stone from the ground and hit it on the hip of stepping on the cloud. Then he took Zhuo Xi in his other hand and rolled on the spot and hid behind a bush. Stepping on the cloud, eating pain, ran away to the distance.


    Jing Yuan went behind the Bush, but he didn''t stop. He pulled Zhuo Xijing forward quietly.


    She knew it was the pursuer, but she didn''t dare to speak. She just followed him forward, took some medicine bottles from his side pocket, opened the lid and spilled them behind her.


    Slowly, Zhuo Xi faintly heard the sound of horse hoofs behind him. Looks like the pursuers are nearby.


    After walking for more than half an hour, Jing Yuan finally stopped and leaned against a tree to breathe.


    Zhuo Xi also leaned aside. The horse ran away temporarily. They took nothing but a few bottles of medicine in their pockets.


    Now after running all morning, they are both thirsty and hungry.


    She couldn''t help thinking of Xiaobai.


    Jing Yuan looked at her, could not help but reach out and pinch her ruddy face and asked, "are you afraid?"


    Zhuo Xi clapped his hand and said, "it''s not the first time to be chased with you. What are you afraid of?"


    "For a while, I was disgusted with this game of escape and pursuit, but suddenly I found that if I died like this, I would not have the opportunity to wait for the people I love and love me, or the time to do what I want to do. So I became fearless, but this time, I was afraid. " He clenched her hand with a wry smile.


    "You?" She asked strangely.


    "Yes." He looked at her deeply. Once people have what they want to cherish, who won''t really be afraid of death? Not afraid of another meaning, such as the verdant mountain, but he already felt that life was loveless.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t want to understand for a moment. He thought his eyes were terrible, so he asked, "what''s the matter?"


    He sighed, his eyes seemed to be covered with water mist, "I''m lost."


    ¡­¡­


    But she really felt that life was loveless. Before that, she saw him choose the direction without hesitation when he met a fork in the road. She thought he knew the direction. Who expected to get lost? He''s lost. What about her? It''s getting dark. There''s no direction. Can''t you spend the night in the mountains? The thought of going to the open-air mat made her feel bad.


    She couldn''t help but snuggle up to his arm and looked at his frightened eyes like a trapped animal, so she had to comfort him in turn, "never mind, I''ll sprinkle a circle of medicine powder around here and I''ll soon roast the centipede. If you can make a fire, you won''t be afraid of cold... "


    Jing Yuan laughed and hugged Zhuo Xi. "Madam, why are you so easy to cheat?"


    Zhuo Xi immediately became angry, "you lied to me?"


    But the next moment her tears came out, "I''ve always been alone. I keep telling myself to be strong and patient, be adaptable, and try to survive in any environment. Since I met you and liked you, I suddenly found that as long as I gave myself to you wholeheartedly, you can protect me. So these are all wrong? You lied to me... I don''t believe you anymore... "


    He immediately repented and hurriedly wiped her tears casually, stroked her back and whispered, "it''s my fault not to cry, not to cry, not to be angry..." he just wanted to make a joke with her, thinking that she trusted herself without hesitation before, whether life or death, whether coming or ending, and left the palace with him without asking. I didn''t know I just wanted to tease her. She was so sad.


    "What''s wrong with you?" She asked with a sob, her head down.


    "The mistake is that we shouldn''t lie to you..." when he said this, he suddenly felt cold, and the secret way was bad.


    "What else have you lied to me and told me today?"


    ¡­¡­


    There was silence, and the air was like three crows flying by.


    Sweat began to trickle out of his forehead.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly raised her head. There was still a drop of tears on her face. The smile on her lips was frozen in her mouth. "You really have something to hide from me?"


    His guilt at this time overshadowed the embarrassment of being teased by her, "I..."


    She picked up his ear with her right hand and stood up. "Did I say that nothing should be hidden from me? Huh? Did I say, don''t lie to me? Huh? "


    "Pain..." he stood up with his ears covered and looked at her pitifully, "madam, I said I was wrong..."


    "Why don''t you tell the truth?"


    "OK, i..." a flying arrow came quickly before the voice fell.


    Jing Yuan pulled her over and took her by the waist and flew up to the dense canopy.


    There was a faint sound of search in the distance.


    Unexpectedly, a knife was stabbed obliquely on the crown of the tree. Jing Yuan, a Lin, turned sideways to avoid it, so he had to protect Zhuo Xi and jump to the ground.


    Another arrow fell on the ground.


    Then a dozen people in black fell from the sky.


    Then several people also rushed to see Jing Yuan''s face. "Hou ye, it''s too late to come down!" It was Jian Yun who brought several bodyguards.


    Jing Yuan glanced at the arrow that had just fallen to the ground, frowned almost invisibly, and said in a loud voice, "I don''t know when the general of Zhou Ji colluded with Prince Edward!"


    The dozen people in black all looked at each other and cut them directly without talking.


    Jing Yuan hid Zhuo Xi behind him, took out his soft sword and tangled with them. Several clouds also joined the war.


    Several short arrows shot at the back one after another.


    Zhuo Xi also took a serious look at the arrow and yelled that it was not good. He actually used the iron arrow he taught technology. Although the style was old and the range was only 30 steps, he was the party being chased, and the other party''s disadvantage turned into an advantage. As long as these men in black hold on for a few seconds, a large number of archers will reach the range. She thought quickly that it would be better to make a quick decision.


    Jing Yuan and others also thought so. They started harder and harder, trying to push forward while fighting, and try to open the distance from the archers behind as far as possible. But there are obviously more and more arrows behind him.


    Zhuo Xi leaned back against him, pulled out his dagger early, and nervously looked at the arrows that might come in front.


    Zhuo Xi, the martial arts master of Jing Yuan, had seen it before. His body was ghostly and his moves were strange. Just now he was attacked by a sudden attack in the trees and was unable to defend, so he had to avoid it first. Now there are pursuers. Why don''t you use all your strength? With the help of Jianyun and others, more than a dozen people in black were wiped out in an instant.


    He already knew that it was the man of the week, so there was no need to keep alive. It was important to protect the people behind him. So without a word of nonsense, he ran all the way to protect Zhuo Xi.


    Without resistance, they quickly threw away the pursuers behind them for a distance and finally got out of the range of the bow and arrow.


    Jian Yun made a brief report on their experiences all the way.


    It was originally planned to leave the mountain depression these days, so when they returned to Kyoto yesterday to inquire about the news, they took TA Yun out by the way and called several brothers to ride over together. Who knows, as soon as they got out of the city, they found that there was a tail following them. They didn''t know whether to get rid of them. They had to wander around the mountain. Later, they found that there were several groups of people touching them. They met God and killed God and Buddha. This is the fourth group of people they destroyed. There are about fifteen people in each group. The technique is very similar to that of the small flag unit in the military camp.


    Jing Yuan directly told them, "these people use the weapons handed over by Liangzhou, and nine times out of ten are people from the day of the week." It has been more than a year since Prince Dan was granted the title of Prince, and he has used such generals as Zhou Ji, Shen Yu and Zhao ting. I''m afraid it''s not a simple one. Shen Yu is his uncle. Zhao Ting has a common hatred with him. I think it''s because he''s afraid of Jing''s survival of birds, so he hooked up with Prince Dan early?


    Zhuo Xi knew that the first Wang jingtui had always been hostile to his brother for fear that he would take his throne, and often used some shady means to deal with him. Before, she also knew that Prince Edward had sent someone to assassinate him, but she always thought that Prince Edward was ordered by Jingtai. Now Jingtai has been buried for days. Instead of focusing on how to ascend the throne, why should she pursue them?


    She asked her questions.


    Jian Yun didn''t dare to answer, but Jing Yuan clenched her hand, "I''ll tell you slowly after I go back."


    The shadow walking in front suddenly stopped, retreated vigilantly, and whispered, "there is an ambush in front."


    Jing Yuan immediately protected Zhuo Xi behind him, and several people surrounded him in a circle.


    Zhuo Xi looked around and whispered, "there is a path on the left."


    Jing Yuan shook his head, "that road is a dead end, and there is a cliff at the end."


    On the right is the mountain. There are pursuers behind and ambushes in front. What can I do?


    She regretted that the bottle of powder had been used too fast before. It took only half an hour to use it up. Otherwise, attracting some snake and insect poisons could interfere with the pursuit route behind.


    A bodyguard came out and gave a military salute and said, "Lord, let your subordinates explore the way first."


    "No, there are only seven of us, none less." Jing Yuan looked around and said, "fortunately, we have few people. First hide in the tree and wait for the archers to pass before we come down. Be careful not to be found by them. "


    Zhuo Xi clapped her hands, "that''s a good idea."


    So they split up and hid in the dense trees by the road.


    However, after a few breaths of Kung Fu, there came the sound of footsteps, and someone whispered, "hurry up, hurry up, we can see their figures in front. How can they disappear again in an instant?"


    Suddenly, a group of people trotted over, all with bows and arrows in their hands.


    "Fuck, how many flags are there in Dadao camp? Why can''t several people block it? "


    "Didn''t you just lose a flag? The others haven''t come around yet. "


    "I said several small flags should act together. Fifteen people on one flag are not enough for them to cut."


    "I thought there were only two of them. What do you want so many people to do... Just block them for a few minutes..."


    They were very confident about the people in the Dadao camp intercepted in front. They didn''t find anyone hiding in the tree, and soon trotted all the way.

 Chapter 154

    Until the last person ran dozens of feet away, Jing Yuan jumped down with Zhuo Xi and stared coldly at the back of the archers.


    Soon, there was a scream ahead.


    Several people turned and ran to the road, but soon they met a group of people in black.


    There are more than a hundred people, all with long swords. But they are not like the soldiers of the big sword camp. Instead, they are all highly skilled in martial arts, like dead soldiers.


    Jing Yuan narrowed his eyes and immediately killed without saying a word.


    The ambush soldiers in the east of the front found that they had been killed by mistake, and they also appeared one after another and ran towards this place.


    Although Zhuo Xi has simple martial arts skills, modern martial arts only pay attention to skills and speed. It is more difficult for them to cultivate internal skills, and the speed gradually slows down.


    A hundred and ten people surrounded seven people, and the war situation was not optimistic. Moreover, there were many people, horses and weapons coming from the East.


    This clear danger shocked Jian Yun, and the weapons in his hand danced faster. But the manpower is limited after all. I don''t know when it can be supported.


    Jing Yuan has been killed with blood, but he still closely protects Zhuo Xi behind him.


    Zhuo Xi has not told him for the first time, "I can protect myself. You don''t have to worry about me." But how could he really ignore her?


    Soon two of the seven bodyguards couldn''t support and fell down.


    The encirclement narrowed again.


    The footsteps behind were getting closer and closer. Someone shouted, "put down the bow and arrow and be careful to hurt your own people."


    Zhuo Xi''s heart clicked. I''m afraid it''s really a hard battle.


    She suddenly understood what he meant by "fear". Calculated, they had only been married for more than ten days before they wanted to live the life they wanted. Would they face death?


    Five people back to back, heart are ready for the worst. But the tighter your teeth bite, how can you find that it seems easier to fight?


    Jianyun thought it was his illusion. He looked at Jianying and found that he was also surprised.


    Then suddenly there was a gap in the east of the circle surrounded by 100 people in black. Jing Yuan was overjoyed and shouted, "withdraw from the East!"


    He pushed Zhuo Xi to the East and blocked the sword flowers coming from behind, but the corner of his eye tilted and saw a long sword stabbing Zhuo Xi''s waist in the East. He was almost scared and kicked at the tip of the sword without raising his foot.


    Unexpectedly, a whip came and swept away the sword, and a figure appeared beside Zhuo Xi.


    Jing Yuan saw that it was five rivers.


    He didn''t have time to think about why the five rivers appeared here. Did he come alone?


    Several people withdrew to the East and were surprised to find that the gap in the East was getting bigger and bigger.


    When Jianyun got out and looked outside, he shouted happily, "reinforcements are coming!" Then more excited to join the battle.


    Zhuo Xi found that Wuhe was very good. A soft whip in the hand dances like a silver snake. One whip can put down one.


    Soon, but for a moment, all the people in black were killed.


    It turned out that those who ambushed in the East were the people of Wuhe.


    Wuhe rolled a soft whip soaked with blood into his back waist, bowed his hands and knelt down to Jing Yuan, shouting, "welcome the king back to the Palace -"


    All the people behind knelt down and shouted, "welcome the king back to the Palace -"


    The clouds were surprised.


    Zhuo Xi was even more surprised.


    Jing Yuan looked at her with a long body and a heavy face. He didn''t speak.


    But looking at his look, it seemed that he had known for a long time. Zhuo Xi was angry again. He took a deep breath and hooked his little finger, "come here."


    He knew that although she was angry, she still took into account his face, so he obediently listened.


    She whispered, gnashing her teeth. "Did you know that long ago? So the crown prince will pursue you to death? "


    He had to nod and ask her in a low voice, "what now?"


    Ah, my husband became king for no reason, but he came to ask her what to do?


    She felt thunder rolling.


    Continue to bite your ears, "is it the Empress Dowager''s idea?"


    He nodded. "About."


    "Since you already know, why are you going out of the palace?" Five rivers are his people. They are actually very safe in the palace. Why should they take a more dangerous road instead? At least the dead soldiers of the crown prince can''t be killed in the palace. She thought of what he said at that time, "if he doesn''t go out of the palace at this time, he won''t go out all his life", which means that he doesn''t want to be the king and be trapped in the palace forever? But she thought it was the Empress Dowager who was going to attack him? But now this dark man can even catch him back... Can he not go back?


    He touched his nose awkwardly and sighed helplessly, "Xi''er, I''ll explain it to you slowly. In this situation, do you want to go back to the palace or don''t you want to go back to the palace? "


    Zhuo Xi opened her eyes. "Can I choose not to go back to the palace?"


    He nodded, "yes."


    "What about you?"


    His eyes are bright and beautiful, but I want to smile with you naturally


    "The point is, do you want to go back?" She didn''t like the deep palace courtyard. She really didn''t want to be trapped in it, but she asked it in a low voice to confirm his intention. That''s the king of a country. No matter which man is a fool, he will understand what it means. Which man will give up the power that is close at hand? Going back means that Jing Yuan''s career has completely changed. Although Zhuo Xi has always had the habitual thinking and mind of modern independent women, she will neither pay too much attention to and help Jing Yuan''s career development, nor deliberately hinder or interfere with his career development. But now that they are married, she naturally wants to respect his ideas. What she wants to do can be done inside and outside the palace, but there is little difference.


    He looked at the kneeling people at the bottom of his eyes and shrugged indifferently, "there is a way to go back. When you go back, you can realize your freedom without the pressure of monarchy and the orders of your parents. To be truly free, only when you stand at the highest place can you really let go and do what you want to do. But if you don''t go back, there will be another world. You can start a career according to your plan... "


    As soon as Zhuo Xi''s eyes lit up, he thought of his heroic words a long time ago, without the pressure of monarchy and the orders of his parents? Isn''t that lawless? But it was a royal palace, not to mention strict palace regulations. In the future, as long as she thought that the so-called emperor would have three palaces and six courts, she could not accept it.


    So she hesitated and glanced at the clouds and five rivers. "If they don''t go back, they..." will they take them back in turn? After all, they are numerous


    He coughed and amplified his voice, "five rivers, if Ben Hou doesn''t go back with you?"


    Wuhe''s ears are so strong that he didn''t hear their whispers. Especially when Jing Yuan asked "what to do", he was already turned over in his heart. He was surprised that he had just made a huge mistake. Suddenly, his back was cold and sweaty. At this time, when he heard Jing Yuan claiming to be cool with the word "Ben Hou", he knocked his head on the ground, "well, The slave and the two thousand gold guards will go with the former king! " To tell the truth, you can only tell the truth! Did you really force the king back? Even if you can escape this disaster, what good fruit will you have to eat when the king ascends the throne in the future?


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath and was buried again?


    "What are you talking about? What happened in the palace these days? " Now that I have asked the five rivers, simply ask one more question to let them all understand the cause of the matter.


    The five rivers cheered up, picked it up and said, "the Empress Dowager asked for the last edict of Emperor Wu and ordered the slaves to go out of the palace to meet the king and the queen." Since I can''t say too much about some things, I just picked this well-known sentence to make up for the big mistake I just made


    Where''s the crown prince? Where''s Queen sun? Where''s her seven Prince Huan? And the beauty Wang and the child in her belly? How did they suddenly disappear from the historical stage when they could have become the protagonists of history? What the hell happened?


    Zhuo Xi was full of doubts. She knew that this was not a good place to talk, but she wanted to ask but didn''t dare to ask.


    Jing Yuan was suddenly in a good mood and kicked five rivers, "you old bastard, what are you shouting at?"


    After five rivers ate a foot, he calmed down a little. He glanced at Jing Yuan secretly from the corner of his eye. Sure enough, he saw that his face was slightly Ji, and his heart was excited again. Sure enough, the queen was more important, but he couldn''t make the same mistake again. He hurried forward and said, "the king and the queen are deeply in love, The Empress Dowager just... "At last, she was bitter and hesitated to go on.


    Jing Yuan shouted, "say!"


    Wuhe kowtowed again. "I dare not hide. There are many things in the palace these days. The Empress Dowager is worried about handling them. She is tired and ill, so it''s too late..." this is also well known in the whole palace. It was said that the Empress Dowager is most concerned about her body. At this time, it''s a critical moment. These two thousand heads are tied to the Empress Dowager. What do you want to bet on, Even if the king made an account afterwards, he would admit it


    Sure enough, as soon as they heard that the Empress Dowager was ill, the two people in front of them immediately became nervous and no longer cared about the canonization. Zhuo Xi said nervously, "what''s the matter with her mother? Does it matter? What did the imperial doctor say? "


    Wuhe quickly turned to Zhuo Xi, kowtowed and said with a bitter face, "if you go back to the queen, the servant doesn''t know..."


    Jing Yuan shook Zhuo Xi''s hand and said softly, "either go back and see what''s going on?"


    She whispered to him, "can you come out when you go back?" Deep palace courtyard or something. If you don''t get out and die of old age in the palace, it''s creepy to think about it.


    Jing Yuan coaxed her, "of course, you can come out at any time."


    If he wants three palaces and six courtyards, he will leave the palace and run away. Well, she admits that''s the real reason why she doesn''t want to go back.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the black man kneeling in front of him, sighed and nodded, "then go back first."


    The five rivers were already jubilant and shouted, "the king, the queen and the empress drive -"


    He wiped the sweat on his forehead. Fortunately, he left two people in the Zichen hall before he had the opportunity to come out to rescue the new gentleman.


    Soon, in a moment, the two lift soft sedans stopped in front of them, but the bright yellow color and wide sedan body didn''t seem low-key at all.


    Zhuo Xi was worried, and with a fire in her heart, she pulled Jing Yuan''s sleeve and didn''t give up. Jing Yuan had no choice but to pull her into the front sedan chair.


    She bit her teeth and asked, "what happened in the palace that afternoon?"


    Why do you think he''s trying to avoid being chased? Where did he mislead him?

 Chapter 155

    Mother Su shouted anxiously inside, "empress dowager, don''t worry, don''t worry..."


    The Empress Dowager''s breathing became heavier and heavier.


    Zhuo Xi got up and rushed in. She helped the Empress Dowager smooth her back with her hand and shouted, "listen to my command, breathe breathe breathe."


    The Empress Dowager breathed slowly and steadily. Mammy Su quickly wiped her tears and brought a bowl of ginseng soup.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Mammy, why is this soup so fragrant? I don''t think it''s a thousand years, but it''s hundreds of years. "


    Mother Su said with a smile, "isn''t it? The empress is always tired these days. The imperial doctor sent two old ginseng."


    Zhuo Xi said, "it''s good for old ginseng to replenish qi, but if you drink ginseng soup with anger, it''s inevitable that the anger will go up and hurt the liver and spleen. Mother, if you want to drink this ginseng soup, you have to drink it calmly. "


    The Empress Dowager just took a breath. Zhuo Xi said this and was angry, "hum, aren''t you two free? Come back and care what my old woman does?! This one, two or three, doesn''t pay attention to me. I''m just so angry! So as not to hinder your eyes! "


    Zhuo Xi knelt down on the low machine in front of the Queen Mother''s bed, held her arm in her hand and said intimately, "how can it be? They all say that there is an old man like a treasure at home. Now Jing Yuan and I are married and will live in the palace again in the future. My mother''s family can''t often enter the palace. How can we do without an old man around us? In case something happens, I''m young and have an accident... "


    Before she finished, the Empress Dowager scolded, "children''s words are not taboo. What accidents are not unexpected! You already have a situation? True or false? "


    Zhuo Xi leaned her head against the Empress Dowager''s arms, "no, it''s not so fast! It happened to be a national funeral. Jing Yuan asked him... "


    The Empress Dowager suddenly felt that she had lost her temper. "What Jing Yuan, Jing Yuan? He is now the king of a country. You should call him the king! You, look at him holding you like a treasure. It''s also the life of a queen. This mouth should start to change now. "


    "Don''t remind me if there are no people around me? Maybe one day I was beheaded for some reason, and I don''t know why... "


    The playful tone made the Empress Dowager laugh and said to mother Su, "look at her and give me back. From now on, call yourself ''minister and concubine''!"


    Zhuo Xi a pair of ants on the hot pot: "how can that be! I haven''t been sealed yet! In case he wants to marry a little wife or something... "


    The Empress Dowager''s face was stiff. "Why, do you still want to leave the palace?"


    Zhuo Xi stuck out her tongue, "no, no!"


    The Empress Dowager''s face sank. "Tell me, why did you leave the palace? This palace is so unpopular with you? Can''t wait to escape? How many people want to come in when they break their heads. It''s good for you. The rich and noble in front of you say no and don''t... why on earth? "


    Zhuo Xi touched her head. Can you recruit Jing Yuan? She bit her lip and said carefully, "empress mother, I, I say it, don''t be angry."


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "come on, my anger rushed out more than ten days ago. Now what''s left is just sadness. If you have the heart to leave the lonely old woman AI family to support the overall situation, you are not afraid that AI family will go to see Emperor Wu in advance? The poor AI family has already stretched one leg into the loess. The two sons who were brought up with great difficulty have to push each other... "


    Zhuo Xi''s tears came out. She didn''t know how she became so sentimental. She seemed to see her grandmother in the world. She left and left her alone. She didn''t know what happened now... She calmed her mind. "Empress mother, it''s Xi''er''s unfilial. Don''t be angry with Xi''er, will you? In fact, Xi''er is afraid of...... "


    "What are you afraid of?" The Empress Dowager''s tone was abrupt and awe inspiring. "Who dares to do something to you?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Why did she rush to talk here?


    The Empress Dowager asked hurriedly, "did you leave the palace that day not because you wanted to leave your mourning home, but because someone wanted to harm you?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned again. Did the empress mother just think they were going to leave her? But can you be honest with her because Jing Yuan doesn''t want to take over this mess? Is it any different from leaving her? No, no, I can only push the crown prince out now.


    She nodded, "empress mother, you don''t know. If Wuhe hadn''t brought two thousand gold guards today, we might not have come back..."


    "What?!" The Empress Dowager''s eyes were as sharp as those of mother sun. Mother sun hurriedly came forward and said, "when the five rivers came to tell the time, you were still asleep. The maidservant saw that the queen of the king was unharmed, so she didn''t wake you up. The Five Rivers said, "when he met the king and the queen, they were being intercepted and killed by a group of people in black. Listen to them, they are jingling people..."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Only then did he react that Prince Leng had been demoted to common people


    The Empress Dowager understood, lovingly stretched out her hand and patted Zhuo Xi''s hand, "you have suffered. Just come back, just come back. Jing Yuan''s identity has been determined. There will definitely be no such haggard situation in the future. You should have confidence in Jing Yuan. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "I naturally have confidence in the king."


    The Empress Dowager was very satisfied with her timely revision of Jing Yuan''s title.


    But she began to hesitate again, "in fact, in fact, I''m still afraid..."


    "What are you afraid of?" On the contrary, the Empress Dowager was curious. In addition to life and death, what was the girl who was not afraid of heaven and earth before? I can''t care to correct her claim.


    Zhuo Xi tried to hold her breath to make her face look red, then covered her face with her hand, took a deep breath and said quickly, "I''m afraid there will be three palaces and six courts in the future!"


    The Empress Dowager was stunned and laughed.


    Mother Su also laughed.


    "Empress mother -" Zhuo Xi stamped her feet, ran out, immediately turned back, stuffed a bottle into Grandma''s arms, "Shugan Buqi pill, take one half an hour after dinner every day." Then he ran away again.


    The Empress Dowager smiled again.


    Seeing that she was in a good mood, mother Su handed the ginseng soup up, "madam, it''s just cold. You can drink it while it''s hot."


    The Empress Dowager smiled, took two drinks, and asked, "you say, with her fierce temper, where does Jing Yuan dare to have three palaces and six courts?"


    Mother Su said with a smile, "the maidservant looked at the king and the queen. They really have a good relationship. Besides, they are just getting married. It''s not urgent. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled slightly, "they have good feelings, naturally. If we can let the AI family embrace their grandchildren earlier, the AI family will not do that annoying thing, just be afraid of the day of the week... "


    Mother Su comforted, "now the king''s return is the best. There are people who inherit the rivers and mountains. What''s more important than this?"


    The Empress Dowager suddenly said, "yes. Now a big stone in the heart of AI family has finally fallen. Oh, AI Jia is really hungry. Did you still have the shredded chicken porridge sent by beauty Wang last time? "


    Mother Su was overjoyed. "I''ve already asked the cook to prepare some porridge. I''ll go and have a look now." For more than ten days, the Empress Dowager is finally hungry. It seems that she still needs heart medicine to cure her heart disease.


    She turned out of the inner room and was about to go to the teahouse to order, but she saw Zhuo Xi still wandering outside, surprised and said, "madam, why..."


    Zhuo Xi said shyly, "I''m hungry, too. Can you let me eat?"


    When Jing Yuan handled many chores, it was already dark. He rushed to Ci''an palace and saw Zhuo Xi talking and laughing with the Empress Dowager. He knelt down and worshipped, "my son, see my mother."


    The Empress Dowager ignored it for a long time, lowered her eyes, took the tea cup and drank it.


    Zhuo Xi immediately got up and knelt down to Jing Yuan. She was in line: "see the king, my concubine."


    But before Jing Yuan shouted, she turned her head and looked at the empress dowager, "empress mother, is this ceremony standard?"


    The Empress Dowager couldn''t help laughing. It''s not good to stretch again. "All right, all right, you two enemies, get up quickly."


    Jing Yuan''s eyes were smiling. Knowing that this afternoon''s Kung Fu, Zhuo Xi had comforted the Empress Dowager. He looked at Zhuo Xi with joy.


    Zhuo Xi quietly spit out her tongue at him, got up and helped him to sit in the seat she had just taken, and she herself sat in the next head of Jing Yuan.


    When the Empress Dowager saw her, she joked, "Yo, is this how to adapt? I''ve been nagging you all afternoon... "


    Zhuo Xi said, "I, no, my concubine said that if there was no order from my mother, my concubine would make many mistakes." She then turned to Jing Yuan and said, "Your Majesty, tell your mother about the affairs of the three palaces and six courtyards in the future. Please ask your mother to take care of them. Ministers and concubines can''t do it..." the tone was quite coquettish.


    Does this mean that the Empress Dowager has mentioned the post seal to her? Jing Yuan was very happy, but he pretended to be angry and said, "nonsense! Where did you come from? Besides, is the queen mother so careless? How can you condescend to help you manage the harem? You are the leader of the harem. You should take the responsibility of managing the harem. How can you let your mother work hard and hurt her nerves? "


    Zhuo Xi said proudly at once, "empress mother, can you hear me? He said there was no Sangong Liuyuan! If he repents in the future, you will testify for me! "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "Jing Yuan, you can''t promise casually. Girl Xi said before that one reason why she wanted to leave the palace was that she was afraid that you would have three palaces and six courts in the future! "


    Jing Yuan said in surprise, "really? I didn''t know that my wife was so righteous. "


    The Empress Dowager''s smile was stiff, and Tun joked, "you will ascend the throne in five days, and Xi''er''s post seal ceremony will also be put on the agenda. In case one of you claims to be a widow and the other claims to be a lady, it''s strange that Xi wench''s identity is not right. I don''t know. I thought the king was talking to a foreign life woman. "


    Jing Yuan respectfully replied, "yes."


    The Empress Dowager looked at the sky again and asked mammy Su, "what time is it?"


    Mother Su said, "ouch," it''s the end of the unitary hour, madam. Do you want to have dinner? "

 Chapter 156

    The Empress Dowager said to them with a smile, "I''ve been talking and laughing for a long time. Unconsciously, I almost passed the dinner time. Do you two go back to eat by yourself or do you eat here? " Since mother Su came in this afternoon and talked to her about Zhuo Xi''s words about rubbing rice, she kept laughing. She liked the word "rubbing rice" very much, with some intimacy and some coquettish taste.


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi looked at each other and said in one voice, "rub rice!"


    The crowd laughed again.


    Mother Su was in a good mood and arranged meals in the small flower hall next to her. Several people quietly finished eating. The Empress Dowager put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "which bedroom do you want to live in?"


    Jing Yuan looked at Zhuo Xi''s vacant face and said, "Xi''er just came. Everything is unfamiliar. Moreover, the new dormitory needs to be repaired. These days I will live in Ziyang hall first, and the others will wait until Xi''er is satisfied. "


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "Xi girl will be the Lord of the harem in the future. The bedroom hall will naturally be renovated. Ziyang hall is also a good place to live. It''s closer to AI''s house. So, girl Xi, go back to Ziyang hall to clean up. I don''t know if some clothes, shoes and socks prepared by the mourning family this afternoon are suitable for you. You have to cheer up to take care of everything else. The mourning family can''t control the Ziyang hall. "


    Zhuo Xi knew that their mother and son must have something to say in private. She dared not joke any more. She saluted respectfully and thanked her kindness before coming out.


    After she came out, she regretted that she didn''t know the way. It seemed that she didn''t say to leave a maid eunuch for her. After walking out of the inner hall, I found five rivers waiting on one side.


    The five rivers politely walked forward and said, "the king asked the slave to wait here. He said that if the empress came out, he would let the slave take you to Ziyang palace."


    Zhuo Xi took a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled, straightened her chest and clamped her back, and went out.


    In the inner hall, the Empress Dowager returned to the main seat. Jing Yuan took the freshly brewed tea from Mammy Su and handed it to the Empress Dowager. He smiled and said, "the tea soup looks so refreshing, and the ministers have a good appetite."


    The Empress Dowager looked at the medlar chrysanthemum tea prepared by Xi girl for her. It was a little red next to the golden chrysanthemum, which was very pleasant. Her cold face was also a little loose. "It''s no use talking well for your daughter-in-law. This tea is specially for old women like AI family. You don''t have to eat it."


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "how can a son covet Xi''er''s filial piety to his mother? The son and daughter-in-law sing harmoniously. Shouldn''t the mother be happy? "


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "but the inheritance of Wang Si is very important. How can it be a child''s play?"


    Jing Yuan said, "empress mother, since ancient times, there has been no family in the emperor''s home. The courtiers were lucky to come out of the bodies of their brothers and nephews. They don''t want to see their sons fighting against each other and killing each other in the future. The royal family''s blood depends on the essence rather than much. If the legitimate and common people are different and lose their upbringing, even if there are more children, it will only add a few more green tombs to the king''s mausoleum in the end. But if there is no legitimate concubine in the harem, and the children are all compatriots of the same mother, how can they fight bravely and fiercely, compete for power and seize power? You don''t want to see the sons and grandchildren of the Jing family smash their heads and blood for the sake of power? " Prince Yu is a living example.


    The Empress Dowager thought of Jing Leng''s two sons, so lovely children, if they kill each other... She didn''t dare to think about it, and her face relaxed. "According to the old practice, a small election is held every year, and a grand palace election is held every three years, not only for the offspring of the royal family, but also to balance the power of the previous dynasty. How can we ignore the ancestral family law? "


    Jing Yuan said, "if the forces of the previous dynasty depended on the harem to balance, the ministers there would also be very incompetent! Is there any minister who begged you so quickly? "


    "No! AI family is just worried that if only one person in the harem is big, there will be no trouble! " The Empress Dowager was frightened and instinctively denied that some balance was indeed needed in the harem.


    Jing Yuan''s eyes deepened, "if Xi''er doesn''t understand anything, it''s just for her mother to teach her. Does the queen mother have no confidence in herself or in Xi''er''s character? "


    The Empress Dowager''s anger surged up. "Ai family knows that you have deep feelings, so they don''t want to stop Feng Xi as the empress. But no man is good for a thousand days, and no flower is red for a hundred days. If you make such a commitment, your husband and wife will be weak and tired in the future, what can you do? "


    Jing Yuan''s face became softer. "Young women are easy to grow old and bosom friends are easy to die. These sons all know. My son just wants to have a try. What kind of ending will a pair go out in his life. Mother, just let go of these things. Let the son taste it himself. Maybe we will regret it in the future, but maybe we will always help each other. Whether you are in the house of the emperor or the house of the people, don''t you just want a house to be peaceful and comfortable? "


    "If you are more ambitious, you can have more legitimate sons. If only..."


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "no, Xi''er knows medicine himself. This is not a problem."


    The Empress Dowager said helplessly, "you''ve had ideas since you were a child. It''s no use saying anything that doesn''t agree with you. Since you have made up your mind, the mourning family will not advise you. "


    Jing Yuan Yiyi to the end, "son thanks his mother."


    The Empress Dowager looked more relaxed, "you can speak. If your son is half filial... "She thought of her own son again and felt sad.


    Jing Yuan knelt down again and kowtowed to the ground, "mother, it''s my son''s unfilial. I had been thinking about how to escape from this cannibal deep palace, but I forgot the pain my mother had just experienced. The son has thought clearly these days. Since this is the last life of his father, the son should bear it and don''t let it hurt at all. Now everything is over. With the mother in charge, the son and daughter-in-law will make more efforts to have more grandchildren. The granddaughter will be happy and filial to your old man. Mother must not be too sad. " It''s better to explain the reason for leaving the palace, so as not to blame Xi''er for her old man''s fault.


    The Empress Dowager burst into tears and smiled, "it''s best for you to have this idea. Good boy, get up. "


    "Mother, are you not angry?" He asked pleasantly.


    The Empress Dowager pretended to be angry. "When you apologize, you will be called your mother. When you forgive you, you will be called your mother! You can really look at your face! "


    "If you like, your son will always call you mother! I''m afraid a female official will blame her son for disobedience! " He smiled.


    "Don''t pestle here. Go back to Ziyang hall to have a rest."


    He ordered a few more words according to his words before he saluted.


    When Zhuo Xi came out of the soft sedan chair, Wuhe had arranged a row of palace maids and eunuchs to kneel at the door to meet her and introduced her, "this is the most round, square and good, which was originally served in Ziyang palace. Zhiyuan is the eunuch in Ziyang palace. Ziyang palace has no big palace maids, only these little maids, namely spring flower, pink ball, small five and small six. The king said, "you call these people first. Tomorrow''s slave will ask for a roster from the inner house. You can choose some who close your eyes."


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "these three eunuchs have good names. Who gave them?" On the contrary, the names of those little maids are too casual.


    Zhiyuan knelt down respectfully and replied, "in the early years, the slaves were lucky to have the name given by the king."


    It means that no one gives a name to the little maid in waiting? She remembered that Jing Yuan didn''t have a personal maid in the Hou''s house outside the palace. Is it because he never liked palace maids, so he didn''t even bother to take his name?


    The head of the spring flower looked older. He knelt down bravely and begged, "good luck to the queen. Slaves and maidservants used their original names without the name given by the Lord. Ask the queen to give her maidservants a name, too. " They have been in this deserted palace for many years. They thought they had no hope. Unexpectedly, their luck turned around. How can they seize this opportunity. It''s better to please the new queen than to follow the king who doesn''t look at them at all. As long as the queen gave them names, they had a chance to stay with the queen.


    Zhuo Xi also understood and said with a smile, "you were the old man of Ziyang palace. It''s not right for you to be so noisy and seize the master when you first came to the palace. Wuhe, do you have a way to bring my maid who stayed in the Wu family into the palace? "


    As soon as Wuhe heard it, he quickly nodded and bowed down, wrote down the name, age and other basic information of the maidservant of the Wu family, and left.


    After hearing this, Chunhua obviously broke down her shoulders, but she still cheered up, introduced the queen into the inner hall, and served her to bathe and change clothes. Then she bowed down and retired.


    In the evening, Jing Yuan came back, bathed and dressed by the little eunuchs, and then entered the bedroom. Zhuo Xi was still wiping her hair. Jing Yuan didn''t like it. "What''s the matter? There''s no one to serve?"


    The spring flower outside led several little maids to kneel outside, trembling and afraid to come in, so she had to whisper back, "the maidservant is here."


    Zhuo Xi looked and threw the handkerchief to Jing Yuan. "I''m waiting for you to wipe my hair. What are you angry with them?"


    Jing Yuan''s anger subsided, picked up her handkerchief and hung her hair carefully.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "let them all go down and have a rest first. Don''t kneel. "


    Jing Yuan coughed, "don''t you get out when you hear it?"


    Chunhua quickly kowtowed and went out.


    Zhuo Xi saw his figure faintly from the bronze mirror. He had long hair and a shawl. His fuzzy face was jade. He was in a good mood. He touched his hair. "My hair is almost dry. Let me wipe it for you."


    He smiled and sat down as he said, "why, they don''t use it easily?"


    She first covered his head with the whole veil, wiped it disorderly, and then smiled and said, "no, after all, they are the old people in Ziyang palace. How dare I use them?"


    He thought a little and said, "spring flowers are left to me by my father. They are very loyal. You can use them as much as you can. In the future, if Xiao soul and her friends come over, it will be difficult for the personnel in the palace to get familiar with them for a while. If there is anything, it can be blocked by spring flowers. "


    She hesitated, "you are going to live in Zichen hall in the future. Don''t they follow?"


    "I never use maids, don''t you know? They''ve all given it to you. You can teach it. "


    She said with a smile, "I''m relieved to see that you said evil words as soon as you came in." In this way, several spring flowers are less concerned, which may be a way for him to protect them.


    She looked at his crumpled hair and laughed.


    Jing Yuan also had a big heart. His eyes turned up and his tongue was long. However, he quietly extended his back. He suddenly turned around and enlarged his handsome face in front of her, so as to scare her. Unexpectedly, his hair was still wrapped in her hands. This turn made his hair hurt and felt broken.

 Chapter 157

    Zhuo Xi knew later, proudly raised his handkerchief, untied the hair wrapped around his fingertips, and was happy, "lift a stone and hit your feet!"


    As soon as his hair was liberated, he hugged her head-on, put his fingers into her dirty clothes, stroked her jade like skin, and the tip of his nose was a faint fragrance. He took a deep breath and whispered, "madam, let''s rest... From now on, we will all stay inside the palace wall. I want to have a good time and make a good start..."


    Zhuo Xi screamed and patted him, "no, no, it''s a national funeral..." it''s more than half a month since the wedding night. If it comes out that she is pregnant


    His action suddenly froze. Did he lift a stone and hit himself in the foot?


    He took her to bed, covered her plumpness with his hands, and rubbed her hard before he gave up.


    So in the next few days, she went to lunch with the Empress Dowager and served her nap. After taking a nap, she hid in Ziyang palace. Xiao Li was taken to the palace, and Xiao soul and Hua Yan also came back, but the two highly skilled martial arts people said they didn''t want to be palace maids and would rather continue to hide in the dark as their dark guards.


    Wuhe was not arranged for her, but stayed with the king himself. On the contrary, the little eunuch called wordless was dialed. He has been on duty with crutches these days.


    Zhuo Xi told him not to pestle in front of his eyes and lie back more. He always said with a smile every time. Every time he saw the queen, he remembered the bottle of medicine she gave that day, and immediately felt that his legs and feet were much better.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help but let them go back. Xiao Li followed Chunhua to learn the rules of the palace.


    But Xiao Li brought a message, saying that sister Xianglan wrote a letter to her from Dingzhou, asking her to keep up with Zhuo Xi and try not to go out.


    Zhuo Xi remembered that Xianglan hadn''t written to herself for a long time. Is it going well over there? Any problems? What does she mean by reminding Xiao Li not to go out?


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Soon came the great day when Jing Yuan ascended the throne.


    Every time she woke up a few days ago, Jing Yuan had gone to court.


    So this day, she got up early in the morning and volunteered to dress him. It was found that either the clothes buckle was crooked or the belt buckle was reversed. The two double dragon jade pendants didn''t know where to hang. Finally, he had to watch the five rivers come in and play with it with regret. He called a little eunuch to comb his hair, put on his crown and went up to the court with great momentum.


    Although she wanted to go to the throne ceremony very much, she was not granted, only a dry stare.


    Fortunately, she can draw simple strokes. Not long after Jing Yuan left, she will come to the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and quickly sketch his just dressed appearance.


    When Jing Yuan came back in the evening, she remembered, "isn''t that Wang Feng ready to go? Now his two abacus are empty. Will he have any idea? "


    Jing Yuan was surprised. "Oh, are you still worried about this national event?"


    "It''s more than a national event. If he turns against you, isn''t it against you? Why can''t I care? " She said unconvinced.


    Jing Yuan laughed, "yes, that''s great. But Wang Feng can''t. He is a general in Kyoto. Which general doesn''t want to make a contribution? I drew a big cake for him, so that he could march thousands of miles within ten years, and promised to let beauty Wang return to the Wang family and enjoy the family with Uncle Wang. Who is he loyal to, not loyal? "


    Zhuo Xi said "Oh" and the military affairs were really not what she should think. What day of the week, Zhao Ting, etc. have something old with Prince Edward. I''m afraid he also has a way to deal with it? The tunnel stopped asking about these things and devoted itself to planning its own career.


    The next day, when I finished breakfast, Chunhua burst in pleasantly, "madam, the king has an order to announce!"


    Zhuo Xi already knew these rules very well, so she led a group of palace maids and eunuchs to kneel in front of the Ziyang hall according to the rules, received the imperial edict to canonize her as the queen, thanked her and sent someone to send a red envelope to the eunuch. The eunuch beamed to her.


    Although it was expected, she didn''t expect Jing Yuan to canonize her the next day after she ascended the throne. She was a little anxious.


    Fortunately, with this will, she is much more justified in doing things. For example, select her bedroom, staff rationing, arrange the affairs of the harem, etc. She chose a palace called Ning''an palace, and spent a month to have Kou Anlian redecorate it according to the equipment of Furong house.


    On the day of decoration, she specially took someone to visit. The spring flowers were silly. How can the wardrobe be divided into so many spaces? Each cell has a different purpose? Why is there a mechanism in the clean room? How do you use it? That sofa looks so soft and comfortable. I really want to go up and lie down


    Xiao Li finally felt that she could be proud and proud. She proudly took several little maids in charge of Chunhua to explain the usage to them. She was stunned to hear them.


    The next day, the Empress Dowager couldn''t help but feel itchy and came to visit. Zhuo Xi saw that she had been staring at the imperial concubine''s chair, so she carefully asked, "does the mother like it? If you like, how about letting someone move to your house? "

 Chapter 158

    Pointing to the big dresser and the mirror, he said, "it''s too big to move!" After visiting the clean room, I can''t wait to move the bathtub and toilet fixed on the ground


    Zhuo Xi was full of black lines and had to say pleasantly, "empress mother, the size of these furniture is customized according to the room. Not to mention the big book case, it''s a whole set of sofas. Every corner of your room takes up too much space, doesn''t it? What if tomorrow''s minister and concubine asked Kou Anli to redesign a size in your bedroom and put it in your room to look more coordinated and more suitable for use? "


    Mother Su hurried up and said, "the maid felt that the clean room was really good. She just asked him to help us design a comfortable and convenient clean room so that the slaves could relax."


    The Empress Dowager smiled and pointed a finger on Zhuo Xi''s head. "See, if you have something useful in the future and dare not honor the mourning family, the mourning family will come to you!"


    Zhuo Xi touched her forehead, snuggled up to her and said with a smile, "empress mother, Xi''er is so afraid, Xi''er doesn''t dare anymore..."


    The crowd burst into laughter.


    Then set a date for moving in.


    More than a month later, Wang Zi palace of dahang''an was officially moved to the mausoleum of cangcui mountain.


    Then on the third day, a grand ceremony was held to canonize the queen.


    Although the inner house is a phoenix robe made in a hurry, it is gorgeous.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the Phoenix robe designed by herself and was very satisfied.


    That day, someone from the government measured her, but she asked casually, what color is the robe?


    The palace maid replied in fear, "according to the past practice, it''s the same as the king''s Royal robe on the throne. It''s black."


    She hated wearing black clothes most, so she asked the palace maid to take a look at the previous imperial clothes. It was not only narrow sleeves and wide waist, but also looked Yong and swollen. Moreover, the phoenix patterns and edge flowers embroidered on them were all made of gold thread. A dress weighs at least ten kilograms.


    She threw it out in disgust. Then she drew the pattern of Phoenix robe in her mind, and happily took the pattern and ran to Jingyuan for advice.


    Jing Yuan was so shocked that she immediately asked her to draw a new dress pattern that he would wear that day for the inner house to make again, and appointed both of them to wear red.


    Once the people of neifu embroidery Bureau heard that their clothes were to be remade, they both suffered a face. The palace maid Zhan Jing, who was sent to take flowers, was afraid that the difficulty was too high to complete on time.


    Zhuo Xi asked, "will you be responsible for embroidery?"


    The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground and replied tremblingly, "no, it''s not."


    Zhuo Xi stroked her forehead, "what are you afraid of? This palace just asks casually. Go and call the person in charge of needlework, embroidery, tailoring and plate making. "


    The maid hesitated, "there are five tailors in the embroidery Bureau. There are ten people for sewing, gold embroidery and silk embroidery. Do you want to shout?"


    Zhuo Xi was startled and said, "just find someone with deep qualifications and familiar skills. The palace will explain the method of making clothes to him."


    The maid in waiting should go out.


    Soon an aunt Yun came and said that she was coming to get the flower appearance of the imperial dress.


    Zhuo Xi carefully told her about the appearance of the clothes, such as wide sleeved and wide skirt, narrow body and narrow waist, dragon and Phoenix cloud pattern, not full gold thread but twisted gold thread, and so on. She also talked about how to standardize and streamline the production of daily clothes for most of the time. Aunt Yun is obviously an expert. The more she listens, the brighter her eyes are. She excitedly goes out holding flowers.


    In less than seven days, the inner government sent someone to embroider the imperial dress.


    She opened it excitedly. It turned out to be Jing Yuan''s. Depressed, she took someone to the study to try on his clothes. As a result, both of them were very satisfied.


    Three days later, her dress arrived and she was satisfied after trying it on.


    On the day of the official canonization, the two got up early in the morning, put on the incense treated clothes sent by the palace people, made up according to the products, and went to the court hand in hand.


    When she was led by him into the Zichen hall, her heart beat inadvertently.


    Although she comes from the 21st century, it does not mean that she knows nothing about the ancient king''s authority; Although she did not have too much desire for power in this ancient times, it does not mean that she has no feeling that she is about to ascend the supreme throne of this woman. She never thought that one day she would stand by the king of a country and watch the prosperity of the world with him. Although this change of identity is more like a change in her career, her thinking about her future career in recent days is still full of expectation and confidence. Jing Yuan is right. Only by standing higher can we be more free.


    When the ceremony and music began, she did not squint and walked side by side with Jing Yuan to the center of the hall.


    Originally, according to the ritual system, the emperor should sit on the throne, accept the Queen''s kneeling and then give the golden seal.


    So she went to the front of the hundred officials. When she reached the place where she should stand, she stopped and waited for Jing Yuan to take her seat.


    But Jing Yuan didn''t go on, but stopped with her.


    She''s a little confused.


    A eunuch stepped out and read out: "this is the order of the Empress Dowager of the king. There are Wu Zhuo Xi, gentle and holding, who can take charge of the affairs of the rear palace; Virtuous and virtuous, can set an example for women all over the world. Today, the book is the queen, in charge of the Phoenix seal, and the mother instrument the world. "


    All officials were in an uproar. Why should the Empress Dowager be canonized instead of the emperor?


    Jing Yuan took her hand and bowed to the Empress Dowager behind the curtain on the right side of the throne, saying, "son, daughter-in-law, take the order."


    The next moment, he helped her turn around, raised her hand and announced loudly to all officials, "from now on, I am willing to share the world and rule peace with the queen!"


    All officials were in an uproar again.


    One person said, "although the Empress Dowager''s canonization fulfilled the orders of her parents, it ignored the principle of ''the king is the minister and the husband is the wife''. Where will the king be placed?"


    One said, "what does the king and the queen mean by ''sharing the world and ruling peace''? Does the queen, as a female, have to participate in the government? "


    Another voice also said, "since Emperor Wu began, there has been a directive that the harem should not interfere in politics. Does the king want to disobey his ancestors?"


    The sound was not loud, and everyone in the whole hall could hear it clearly.


    Zhuo Xi also heard it. She wanted to say that she was not interested in participating in politics, okay?


    Jing Yuan pulled her sleeve and motioned her not to act rashly.


    Le Ke, who has been promoted to Da Sikong, stepped out of the line and said, "I dare to say a few disrespectful words. Please forgive the king and the queen first. "


    Jing Yuan waved his hand, and Le Ke continued, "on that day, a craftsman in Hou''s house presented 108 new craftsman utensils at one time to apply for awards. Do you remember? "


    When people remembered, who was it not Mr. Kou andI?


    Le Ke added, "for the first time, he applied for 108 awards. First, Wang Shengming found that 103 items were widely promoted among the people; Within the next three months, Mr. Kou anding applied for a total of 629 new utensils. The inner government and the manufacturing department approved a total of 586 new utensils and promoted them among the people, covering all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation of ordinary people. Among them, 121 farm tools have been used. Shuntianfu in Kyoto has received 36 thank-you letters from ordinary farmers, and 52 farmers have sent their latest harvest of fruits and vegetables to show their gratitude; There are 305 new tools in the construction industry. Do you not enjoy the convenience of these tools if you have built them at home? Other small utensils have entered ordinary people''s kitchens, bedrooms, cars and horses, clothes and so on... Not to mention ordinary people, just ask everyone present. How do you feel about these objects over the past year? "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. She didn''t expect that Kou Anli had done this and invented so many objects? She pulled lajingyuan''s sleeve and whispered, "so Leke is your man?"


    Jing Yuan sipped his lips and said, "who is not a widowed man in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?"


    Uh, well


    Wu Sheng, a scholar and doctor of the Xing division who specifically disagreed with Le Ke, said, "I dare not say that there have been earth shaking changes, but it has indeed provided great convenience for people''s daily life. But Mr. Kou did all this. What does it have to do with the queen? "


    Le Ke said with a smile, "Lord Wu is really smart. Naturally, this matter has nothing to do with the king. But according to Mr. Kou, all his tools and objects were inspired by the queen. As we all know, the queen used to be the appropriate servant of the king. When the governor of the Marquis of Guang''an built and repaired the house, she taught Mr. Kou hand in hand. If you don''t believe it, ask Mr. Kou! "


    There was an uproar in the room.


    Zhuo Xi kept a smiling mouth and asked, "is it your person who runs out to sing the opposite tune?"


    Jing Yuan followed suit. "Naturally, there must be an opposition, otherwise how can the play go on?"


    Gongsun Li, the doctor of Sima, also came out and said, "as far as I know, this time, General Wang Feng took over the general of Zhou and went to Wuzhou. Good news came one after another. The new bow, Mao arrow and other weapons he relied on were designed by the queen."


    This is Zichen hall. No one dares to talk nonsense in the hall. No one dares to question the words of the two ministers who are the second life.


    All officials were in an uproar again, but the voice of opposition was obviously lower than that of exclamation.


    So Le Ke said, "if you will excuse me, I feel that the Queen''s wisdom is close to the demon. If the cool country can get the help of the Queen''s mother, it will be able to cast new tools, fight all over the world and reproduce the peaceful and prosperous world!"


    He knelt down and said, "minister, congratulations to the king, Queen and empress. Please take the Queen''s seat! "


    The back side immediately knelt down, "congratulations to the king and queen. Please take your seat!"


    Jing Yuan laughed and took Zhuo Xi to the throne behind him.


    Zhuo Xi asked with a smile, "why did you come here? I don''t want to participate in politics. "


    Jing Yuan said with his teeth clenched, "naturally, I want you to spare no effort to give me advice."


    She rolled her eyes. "When did you ask me for advice?"


    He looked at her and whispered, "I didn''t give you a grand wedding, so I had to give you a grand canonization ceremony to make the whole world surrender to you!"


    With that, they had just finished stepping more than a dozen steps and came to the supreme throne.


    Zhuo Xi sat down beside him in shock and watched the civil and military officials kneel down to congratulate Qi.


    At the end of the line, she seemed to see several familiar figures.

 Chapter 159

    Back to Ziyang palace, before I could change the heavy imperial clothes, the Spring Festival Gala came in and reported that the Empress Dowager sent someone to send a reward.


    A crowd of eunuchs and maids swarmed in, and eunuchs sang the reward items: "a pair of red gold and treasure carved Phoenix hairpins, a pair of jade arm bracelets, a beautiful blue bird Chaofeng double-sided embroidered screen, a Golden Phoenix engraved silk cloud pattern curtain..." it took a quarter of an hour to sing the reward. Then the king sent someone to give gifts and sang for another quarter of an hour


    Zhuo Xi waved wearily, "spring is warm. You can take someone to count it and send it directly to Ning''an palace, so that you don''t have to take a lot of miscellaneous things when you move there tomorrow..."


    The spring is warm. I can''t hear it. Now I''m surprised to hear the Queen''s mother say so. These are things that many people dream of all their lives but can''t ask for. In the Queen''s mouth, they have become a "big push"


    But they didn''t dare to say much, so they quickly arranged people to count and make a book.


    Zhuo Xi was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but she heard Chunjing come in again, "Mrs. Qin sent someone to send a congratulatory instrument."


    Although Mrs. Qin was promoted one level, she did not dare to say "reward" to the queen.


    Then there are Wang Changji of Jingqian, Wang Changji of Jingmo, Mrs. Chang''an Bo, Mrs. Qingyuan Bo, Mrs. Guangyuan bo... All sent people to send greetings


    Zhuo Xi was helpless. She simply asked chunnuan to receive, count and make a book together, and asked Wuyan to open the warehouse in Ning''an Palace first. On the one hand, she asked people to send the counted goods into the warehouse


    She changed her clothes and washed out. She was ready to have a rest. When she heard the report of Chunxiao, she said, "the king specially ordered Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu to come to see her."


    She suddenly remembered the familiar figures at the end of the team in Zichen hall. I''m afraid Jing Yuan specially ordered them to attend his canonization ceremony? Almost an hour has passed since the ceremony ended, and the old lady doesn''t know whether she can stand it or not


    Thinking so, Zhuo Xi quickly asked them to come in and sat down in the front seat.


    Chunxiao led them in.


    Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu Liu came in, bowed down to her, made a big gift, and congratulated her on her accession to the throne.


    She hurriedly said, "grandmother, mother, please get up."


    They thanked him and stood up.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly ordered Chunxiao to give him a seat.


    When they sit down, thank you again.


    Zhuo Xi said, "grandma, mother, don''t be so polite. I don''t know that my grandmother and mother are waiting outside. The sun is shining outside. "


    Mrs. Wu said with a smile, "today is a big day for my mother. If it weren''t for the special order of the king, neither I nor your mother would be allowed to come to the palace to watch the ceremony. What does it matter if we just wait a little longer? Besides, I didn''t wait under the sun. The king specially ordered me to sit outside for a while. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "so this palace can rest assured. Haven''t seen you in January. How''s grandma doing lately? "


    Mrs. Wu leaned over and said, "thank you for your concern. I still use the flower tea given by my mother last time. It''s very appropriate. I heard that the king and his mother went back to the palace. I thanked my ancestors for their protection day and night in front of their ancestral tablets. The Wu family is looking forward to today! "


    Liu also wanted to say something, but he didn''t dare to speak. Zhuo Xi saw it and said with a smile, "don''t hold your mother. Although this palace is in the back, it''s still the sixth miss of the Wu family. It doesn''t hurt if you have something to say."


    Liu said happily, "madam, Hong Fu Qi Tian, we are also very happy. Last month, Lin Anbo''s aristocratic son got married and even posted a post to the Wu family. Speaking of it, it''s the Wu family who has been exposed to the light of their mother. "


    Zhuo Xi frowned. "Mother, although the Wu family is a foreigner in the palace, now his father and eldest brother are still officials in the dynasty. The foundation of the Wu family is still shallow. The Wu family should be cautious. Don''t give others a handle."


    Liu Shi suddenly seemed to be splashed with cold water, and his face was chatty.


    The old lady said, "your mother is right. When I return to my house, I will certainly restrain my subordinates and be cautious in my words and deeds. "


    What else does Liu want to say.


    Zhuo Xi had understood it and deliberately asked, "the third sister was still angry on the day when the palace got married. Now she''s happy? "


    Liu quickly complimented, "your mother''s clever plan, fortunately jiao''er and ru''er escaped..." if it weren''t for her, they would be sent to the imperial temple to accompany the Green Lantern Buddha.


    Zhuo Xi coughed.


    Liu woke up and hated that he couldn''t speak. He hurriedly mended his way, "jiao''er is just having a child''s temper. It''ll be fine in a few days. Now I''m alive and kicking. Today I''m still clamoring to come to the palace to see my mother... "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "in a few days, take her into the palace and talk to me."


    Liu wondered, "I''ll wait to enter the palace..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "don''t worry, mother. The canonization ceremony of her daughter has passed. I think there will be a will to reach the Wu family in the near future. It will be more convenient for you and your grandmother to enter the palace in the future. "


    The old lady and Liu naturally heard the implication. They were overjoyed and knelt down to kowtow.


    Chunxiao came in again and stopped talking.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what''s the matter?"


    Chunxiao respectfully said, "a girl named Lin Lang came outside to ask for a meeting. It was the five river supervisor who brought her here."


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed. "Is Lin Lang here, too? Please invite her in! "


    When the old lady and Liu saw that she had guests, they said goodbye and left happily.


    After a while, Lin Lang came in with his head on his head.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and scolded her, "why, you won''t walk in the palace?"


    Lin Lang walked in with his chest held out and didn''t wait for Zhuo Xi to give him a seat. He sat directly in the seat where the old lady had just sat and said carelessly, "what''s so great about such a small palace? In those days, which of the eighteen halls of the Forbidden City did I not visit? "


    "Oh, have you visited the Forbidden City? Why didn''t that teach you to see the queen to worship? "


    Lin Lang said, "I''m a multinational talent now. Don''t my mother respect intellectuals?"


    "Who said intellectuals would not pay homage? Come and worship me! " Zhuo Xi also made jokes.


    Lin Lang didn''t stop. "In my life, I only intend to worship heaven and earth and ghosts and gods. Do you want to touch the ghost word..."


    "The ghost word is OK, but the goddess can... Ha ha..." they laughed together.


    Zhuo Xi is also very happy. She is really the only two colleagues. It''s nice that her feelings haven''t changed.


    Lin Lang said impolitely, "do you have Beijing roast duck? I''m starving!"


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "you''re starving to death. You only eat Beijing roast duck?"


    "It goes without saying that Beijing roast duck is the most like all the dishes you have imitated!"


    Zhuo Xi said to Chunxiao, who was so frightened that she opened her mouth and stood still, "do you hear me? Why don''t you send someone to tell the cook? "


    Chunxiao just regained his consciousness and should go out.


    Zhuo Xi took the maid standing by the door out to serve tea. Then she turned to Lin Lang and asked, "Why are you coming from Liangzhou? What happened to Liangzhou? "


    Lin Lang also sat up straight. "There''s nothing wrong now, but I think something big will happen soon!"


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. Nine times out of ten, it was a real event that could become a "major event" in Lin Lang''s mouth, "take your time."


    Lin Lang opened his mouth and said, "I came up this time, nominally to escort the third prince Jing Hua back to Kyoto for medical treatment. Originally, he lived well in Liangzhou mansion. When you left Liangzhou, he was entrusted by the king to take care of the affairs of Liangzhou mansion. Everything was normal. But one day, it seems that on the day of your wedding, he was stimulated by something. He cried and laughed all night in the courtyard in the middle of Liangzhou Prefecture, and was drenched with rain all night. Then he fell ill the next day. I heard that when I fell ill, I either fell asleep or woke up, the whole person became stupid and talked nonsense all day. But no one dares to move without a king''s order. Half a month ago, the king ordered someone to send him back for treatment, and I came back with them. "


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "since you can come all the way safely and smoothly, it shows that the king acquiesced. But the big thing you said is definitely not Jing Hua''s business. What did you find? "


    Lin Lang pulled the brocade machine towards her, approached it a little, and whispered, "you know, what''s the situation of our Wulin mountain now?"


    Zhuo Xi was blankly, "didn''t I give you full power? Did you report to me? How do I know if you didn''t report to me? "


    She said in a lower voice, "the mine has been drilled and the trial mining has begun in small quantities. I''m still in the experimental stage of refining and purification. I wanted to wait until mass production to report the output to you. But didn''t you ask me to give you the formula of black powder before? I found that near the mine, there was a small group of unknown people testing the power of black powder. Once, I also found that there were traces of oil burning in the explosion pit! "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. She gave the formula to Jing Yuan. According to his idea, she will find someone to test it¡° It doesn''t seem to matter. " It neither threatened her life nor affected her wealth.


    Lin Lang continued, "do you know that I went back to Kyoto with the army to escort a patient. They actually transported tuyi of seven carriages!"


    Zhuo Xi took a breath, seven big carriages¡° Do you doubt? "


    "I suspect they are smuggling black powder! You are fighting with datan recently. If this batch of black gunpowder appears on the battlefield in the North... "She asked anxiously," do you think our arrival will change the historical process? "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "Lin Lang, why didn''t I know you were so worried about the country and the people? Still worried about the historical process! I think you are worried that your civilian market will be preempted first? " After all, once gunpowder is produced, crafty businessmen may follow up the research and development, and civilian gunpowder related products may be developed.


    Lin Lang said angrily, "that was my patent! I''ll leave it to you, but if someone else steals the recipe, who am I going to cry for? " That''s a big deal, a big deal!


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "don''t worry, even if someone here can steal the formula, it''s just black powder. Aren''t your patents for firecrackers and fireworks still in your mind? Besides, do you want to earn all the money at the end of the day? Always leave some living space for others? "


    Lin Lang''s eyes lit up. "Do you mean... Allow me to produce and sell firecrackers and fireworks?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled again. "If you really intend to do it, I suggest that the government law add the control measures of fireworks and firecrackers, and you will become the first businessman in the government to obtain the production and circulation license of fireworks and firecrackers." Lin Lang did remind her that if the invention and circulation of fireworks and firecrackers cannot be stopped, the regulatory constraints must first.


    Lin Lang jumped up and hugged her. "Thank you, Queen!"


    "However, there is a condition in this palace." Zhuo Xi sat up straight and patted herself where she had been hugged.


    Lin Lang rolled his eyes. "I knew it was a incendiary bomb, right? Anyway, I have no place to produce and no place to use. Forget it, it''s cheaper for you... "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "it''s better to talk to smart people! I don''t know. Why did Zisang country chase you? If they knew they had lost such a treasure, do you think they would regret it? "


    "I don''t know if they regret it, but Cui Jiu heard it''s a little miserable recently!"


    "What a terrible thing?"


    "After returning home, he was chased by a bunch of brothers. Last time, there was a rumor that a prostitute was pregnant! Now the whole purple mulberry country has a strong voice to abolish him as the prince... "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what did you do again?" She didn''t believe Lin Lang was at the border. She didn''t retaliate for Cui Jiu when she heard the news.


    Lin Lang smiled proudly. "I didn''t do anything. I just asked the innkeeper to secretly take some fire thunder and blow up his four brothers one by one."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "are you crazy? Isn''t it obvious to tell them that this has something to do with Cui Jiu? "


    Lin Lang was unmoved. "If he can''t handle such small things well, it''s not right for him to be a prince!"


    Zhuo Xi thought of something and said with a smile, "my Xiyan Yangsheng hall will open next month. Are you interested in doing a spa?"


    Lin Lang stared in surprise, "really? That must be going! But... "She said in distress," I don''t have a place to live yet¡°


    Zhuo Xi smiled again. "Shall I have someone buy you a small house in Kyoto? Lest you live in the palace without a fixed place, and kneel one by one. "


    Lin Lang was overjoyed. "Thank you, Queen!"


    "I think this sentence comes from your sincerity!"


    "Am I such a snob?"


    "You are so, can''t you?"


    ¡­¡­


    They laughed together.


    The palace maid holding Beijing roast duck and tea outside looked at each other and regretted that she didn''t see the girl named Lin Lang just now.


    For a long time, Zhuo Xi spread words and let them take food and drink in.

 Chapter 160

    The next day, Zhuo Xi led people to move to Ning''an palace. Originally, she came into the palace empty handed. In the back, Xiao Li brought in the medicine box she used to use. It turned out that there was no need for clothes in Hou''s house and Wu''s house. When Wu''s mother came back, she only brought some gold and silver, and the rest was bought after entering the palace. Fortunately, on the first day, all the reward and greeting instruments were directly integrated into the warehouse of Ning''an palace, so it didn''t take too long to move. A total of several boxes and cages were loaded, and several eunuchs carried them at one time.


    After the ceremony, the queen Fengyin officially entered the Ning''an palace, and all matters in the back palace poured into the Ning''an palace.


    In addition, she felt that it was urgent to formulate an effective management system.


    So she hurriedly called the inner house to send the list of female officials and eunuchs of the harem palace. According to the list, she selected six people to be in charge of the clothes, food, housing, gifts and finance of the harem palace. Each person has another six people under him to take charge of the relevant matters of each palace. Just relieved, I thought I could be a shopkeeper. Unexpectedly, the female official in charge of the ritual system sent a thick list of concubines and concubines left by the former king, who wanted Zhuo Xi to make a decision.


    She knew that sun Yao had been demoted as a beauty, and the seven Prince Huan was sent to Mrs. Qin to raise her. According to the system, all the first king''s concubines without children must be sent to the imperial temple for breeding, and only those with children can stay in the palace. She thought of Wang Jialin again. When she looked down, she found that her page read "sudden death due to illness".


    She knew that she should have been quietly released from the palace to reunite with her father. The Empress Dowager is also willing. After all, she is pregnant with her grandson. But Sun Yao has always been a question in her heart.


    When Jing Yuan came in the evening, she talked about these things with him.


    Jing Yuan was surprised and asked carefully, "how do you manage these six thirty-six people?" When there are only two people, they only call each other you and me.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "everything in the back palace can''t escape the six things of clothing, food, housing, transportation, etiquette and finance. My ministers and concubines make six people in charge of six things. Each person has six people in charge of affairs, training, collection, transmission, finance and internal affairs. These six people have three to five people in charge of palace people, concubines and Empress Dowager and concubine according to the level. No matter where there is an incident or request in the back palace in the future, As long as they report to the upper level according to the corresponding steward and act according to the rules, they have the authority to deal with it immediately. They can report the daily account to me every seven days. In this way, the number of things I come here to show will be greatly reduced. In the past, they even asked me how to customize the maid''s autumn clothes and what cloth to use. My brain was going to explode... "


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "I didn''t expect you to have not only small wisdom, but also great talent."


    She is not modest, "it''s only a harem. How can it be difficult to defeat people with high IQ like me?"


    He deliberately asked a difficult question, "you have given 36 people in six departments such great authority, are you not afraid of their deception? How do you know how to withhold money and treat palace people harshly? "


    Zhuo Xi said, "the process of self owned accounting room needs the application of the handler, the review of the supervisor, and the reimbursement can only be made after the approval of the last six female officials. Moreover, the operator needs more than two people to purchase, so as to prevent embezzlement. In this way, the six female officials have a great responsibility. If one of them wants to be greedy, they must bribe at least one or two other people. The more people know about this, the greater the risk. As the six female officials who bear the main responsibility, if they want to think about their own black hats, they must be strict. As for the harsh treatment of palace people, I have set up public mailboxes in Ning''an palace and Ci''an palace. If someone can''t claim grievances, he can write letters anonymously or in his real name. His own palace people check the letters regularly, and the valuable ones will be sent to me or the empress dowager, and the worthless ones will be dealt with. " In this way, she can get the best gossip resources without placing informants everywhere


    Jing Yuan exclaimed, "this method is very good. It can not only supervise hundreds of officials, but also secretly observe the people''s feelings..."


    Zhuo Xi immediately said, "please speak carefully, your majesty. My concubine only monitors the affairs of the harem. Why do you supervise all officials to secretly observe the people''s situation?"


    He laughed, "Xi''er, I have said that I want to share the world and rule peace with you. What if you really interfere in the government?"


    "But I don''t want to participate in the government. I just want to do what I can and want to do..."


    Jing Yuan sighed with emotion, "I thought you would not adapt to the life in the harem. I didn''t expect you to find out the way so soon. Such a complicated situation is organized by you. I really admire being a husband. "


    At this time, they had hid under the quilt.


    Zhuo Xi dodged the hand he reached into his skirt and touched, "I said, I have strong adaptability. It''s just something I don''t want to pay attention to. How difficult is it? It''s not difficult. " Just managing a harem, isn''t it like managing an enterprise? Step by step, act according to rules, classify and manage at different levels.


    He leaned forward, held her ear beads and asked, "what day is it today?"


    She smiled and dodged, "I don''t know."


    He seduced her, "here is a new clean room..." you don''t have to call water


    "That''s not good... There are still a few days, you can bear it..."


    "I can''t help it. Touch it..."


    "Hey, I have something to tell you." Zhuo Xi smiled.


    "What''s up?"


    "Jing Hua was sent back?"


    "He was hurt by sun Yao. I asked him to come back to see if there was any way to cure him. If you''re free tomorrow, take a pulse for him? "


    "OK. However, my medical skills are limited. I don''t know if there is any way. "


    "But I heard that you sent people to pull seven carriages back from Liangzhou? Ready to send it to Wuzhou? "


    Jing Yuan lay flat and couldn''t talk about military affairs. "Yes, you let the gunpowder formula provided by Lin Lang work very well. The preliminary test in Liangzhou has been successful. I wanted to try again and again to ensure that everything is safe before starting large-scale manufacturing. But now datan in the north is too arrogant. I''ll first transport a batch of experimental products to try their power and frustrate their spirit. "


    Zhuo Xi said to him, "once this thing comes out, the world will be in chaos. If it''s military, it should be strictly controlled; Once it flows into the people, it is very dangerous. It would be better if there were regulatory laws first... "


    Jing Yuan immediately understood, "does Lin Lang still have some reservations? She wants to profit from it? "


    Zhuo Xi advised, "she has given us big profits, so don''t pursue her." What is more beneficial than a weapon¡° Moreover, she also wrote down the formula of another military weapon, which is several times more powerful than fire and thunder. The conditions allow her to produce and sell civil gunpowder products. But you can rest assured that civil products will not be dangerous as long as they are used properly. "


    Jing Yuan was overjoyed. "Is there really a new weapon formula?"


    "Nature is true. I didn''t expect you to use fire and thunder so soon, and the oil has not been refined successfully. It is said that you have begun to add oil to the fire thunder. Instead of letting you spend your time exploring, let her provide the best proportion. "


    Jing Yuan hugged her excitedly, "with you, I may really realize my mother''s last wish..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it won''t be the rule of the world, will it?" With arms and sharp weapons, do men have to take this step?


    Jing Yuan laughed, "I want to tell you a secret..."


    He hugged her and whispered.


    Zhuo Xi was shocked, "really...?"


    Jing Yuan laughed again, "it''s hard to see you look so surprised. Hey, although I promised you not to ask the source and origin before. But I''m really curious. You and Linlang are so intelligent that they think of these things. What on earth did you learn from? Can you tell me? "


    Zhuo Xi was worried that she couldn''t explain their origin, and didn''t want to make up any more lies to deceive him, so she said half jokingly, "yes, indeed, it''s still the king''s eye. She is not my sister, but my junior sister. We share a school called China. "


    "Where is that?"


    "A distant place. Our master has the immortal Dharma. With a whoosh, he sent us here one after another... "


    "I''m so lucky that the immortal sent a disciple to give advice..."


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    On this day, Zhuo Xi received a post. When I opened it, it turned out that hyacinth had sent a post saying goodbye to them in the palace. Zhuo Xi was overjoyed and went to welcome the hyacinth in person.. Prince Rong went to Zichen hall to say goodbye to Jing Yuan.


    Hyacinth has a big belly, holding his waist and smiling: "I didn''t expect, I didn''t expect."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "I didn''t expect it."


    "Well, what''s the taste of the mother of a country?"


    "Well, you can do whatever you want!" Zhuo Xi helped her to sit down in the seat and restrained her desire to touch it.


    Hyacinth laughed. "Is that why you finally decided to enter the palace?"


    "You know, I''ve always been afraid of being controlled, so I have to stand at the top so that no one can control me." Zhuo Xi said with a smile.


    The wind said, "it''s hard for senior brother to give up his freedom for you."


    Zhuo Xi replied, "once I thought like you that he lost his freedom when he became king. But he said that only by standing at the top can we get more freedom. What''s more, I also want to understand these days that the so-called bondage is just a power, status and money desire that I can''t escape. As long as I can let go of these, won''t my heart be free? The heart is free, where is not free? Besides, we are husband and wife. There is no question of who gives up for whom. He gave up his freedom for me. I didn''t give up my freedom for him. The most important thing between husband and wife is equality. Only when we are equal can we live long. "


    The hyacinth said, "what a good man is not free, what a good man is equal between husband and wife. Xi''er, if you had said this a few years ago, I would have been shocked by the world, but brother Rong and I have experienced these things. I really think it is golden advice. "


    "Oh? What have you been through? " Zhuo Xi had goose bumps and a big heart of eight letters.


    Hyacinth blushed. "Before, I always hated brother Rong. I thought he was guilty of me, so he let me rub it. But one day he finally couldn''t help getting angry. I found that he was also a person, with a temper and self-esteem. He would also be sad and distressed. I finally thought about it from his point of view and found that it was not his fault. If it hadn''t been for him, I would have died. But he also suffered so much because of my willfulness and didn''t say a word. So I opened up to him and asked him whether he endured my torture because of love or guilt. He said that he had done something wrong that time and should bear the consequences. But then every time he saw me, he thought, he wanted to hug me, he wanted to talk to me, he wanted to be tired of being with me, and his heart beat faster. If Shangguan came to take care of him and feed him water, he would be unhappy. If I were here, he would be happy all day. If this is not called love, he doesn''t know what love is. I compared my heart to my heart and found that I had abandoned those resentments and had the same feeling, so I told him. He was very surprised and said he would live a good life with me. Forget the unhappy beginnings. It''s true that two people can help each other by taking care of each other equally. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and asked, "how is he recovering now?"


    "I can walk. I happen to have an internal mind skill handed down by master in those years, which is suitable for people like him who are broken and reborn. I gave it to him. Now his internal skill has greatly increased and has surpassed me... "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Is there such a blessing in disguise?


    The hyacinth continued, "well, I always owe you a thank you. If you hadn''t scolded me, I might have killed brother Rong with a knife, and he wouldn''t have... "


    Zhuo Xi finally felt that she could be proud. She put her face in front of her and asked, "do you really want to thank me?"


    The hyacinth nodded, "what gift do you want?"


    Zhuo Xi stretched out a finger and said, "call me sister-in-law."


    Hyacinth laughed, hugged her and kissed her, "sister-in-law!"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. She trembled and pointed to her and asked, "you, you, how did you become so open?" Is Lin Lang attached?


    The hyacinth hugged her and said, "we have agreed to leave for tengju in two days. Shangguan sword has been whispering in our ears to go back. Our ears are almost cocooned. Brother Rong said that it was not easy for the child to get on the jade plate anyway, so it was better to go back early while the month was not big. He''s almost recovered. As long as there is no big event on the road, it will be fine. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "when will you leave in two days? Which gate? I''ll see you off. "


    The hyacinth shook his head, "you are now a noble person. I can''t stand beating gongs and drums as soon as you leave the palace. We want to go quietly. Don''t send it. "


    She took a roll of bamboo slips out of her sleeve pocket. "These are some notes I wrote when I was wandering the Jianghu. I sorted them out a few days ago. There are some properties and solutions of uncommon drugs. You can refer to them if you need them."


    Zhuo Xi was so happy that she thanked her repeatedly.


    "By the way, you''ve come just in time today. Jing Hua has been ill for a long time. I looked at him yesterday and had no clue. If you don''t mind, take his pulse? "

 Chapter 161

    The hyacinth nodded, "I have an intersection with the three princes. Naturally, I have to do my best."


    Zhuo Xi sent someone to invite Jing Hua.


    Jing Hua was a little silly when she came.


    Zhuo Xi simply told Fengxin about him.


    Hyacinth carefully cut his pulse and sighed for a long time, "it''s a dream bug again. It seems that sun Yao had an eye on him early in the morning. But fortunately, the three princes were poisoned for a relatively short time and were stimulated to become like this. I just don''t know where the former crown prince is now? "


    "He was imprisoned in his Danyang palace. The palace keeper said that he had been sleeping for a long time these days."


    The hyacinth nodded, "it seems that the dream insects on him have grown up, and the tentacles have broken their teeth and gone deep into his head."


    Zhuo Xi shivered, "there are such vicious poisons in the world."


    The hyacinth said with a smile, "outsiders seem very vicious, but for those who are poisoned, it seems like a boundless dream, which is very comfortable. It''s said that more than ten years ago, there was a leader of Baihua palace in the Jianghu. Because her husband died when he met his enemy, she was not as good as dead. She specially rushed to Zhaojiagou and asked the Zhao family for a lot of money to get a dream bug so that she could not wake up in a beautiful dream. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, "the world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders."


    "Isn''t it? You are a strange woman! "


    Zhuo Xi touched her nose, "ha ha, what about the three princes? Can it be saved? "


    The wind whispered, "if you can take the dream bug out of the prince''s body, burn it into ashes and let the three princes take it, the dream bug in his body can be killed."


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "how to take out the dream Gu?" I think the Gu in her was still led by Jing Yan with blood. The dream bug has grown up. It''s not so easy to take it out, is it?


    "If he can''t wake up after a long sleep and doesn''t enter rice water, he can only live for about six or seven days; Even if you feed water every day, you can only live for ten days. You have to keep an eye on him. Once the host of the dream bug dies, it will climb out to find a new host. If no one takes it in a column of incense, it will die. So you must catch it in this column of incense and burn it directly into ash. "


    "Is it looking for a new host? Isn''t it dangerous to catch it by hand? " If you accidentally get caught by it, you can''t.


    "You ask people to find a fruit called Centaurus. When Zhao family raised Menggu, they put it in bairihong fruit, and it drilled into the fruit to breed and lay eggs. You lure it into the red fruit and throw it directly into the brazier. However, a red iron pot should be placed in the fire basin first. So that we can collect its ashes. "


    Zhuo Xi put her heart down. Jing Hua is so innocent. It''s not a pity if she can be saved.


    The hyacinth looked at the sun and said, "it''s time for brother Rong to take medicine. I should find him."


    Zhuo Xi chuckled and watched her curl out.


    She remembered the hyacinth childe she saw for the first time last year. How could she expect that "he" would look like what he is now?

    Then soon after the three-month national funeral, as soon as the filial piety period arrived, she opened the Xiyan Yangsheng hall in a hurry.


    On the day of opening, all officials above grade III and Xun GUI''s family members in the whole Kyoto City received invitation posts. Everyone is guessing which family is behind the support of the Yangshengtang. But no one knows who the real shopkeeper is. There was only one rumor whispering among Xun GUI.


    But those who have come to Xiyan Yangsheng hall to experience this place will never forget it. Some come every once in a while to do beauty and take care of their bodies, some come to get fetal medicine, and some come to consult early childhood education


    Lin Lang is a self-made man. As soon as he arrives at the Yangsheng hall, he points out the country and startles Ke min, who is accompanied by him. But Ke min is a shrewd man. Seeing that Lin Lang''s speech is comparable to that of the queen, she secretly pays attention, modestly notes down many of her suggestions, and gives her a month''s VIP ticket. When Ke min reported back to the queen, she also said it. Sure enough, the queen nodded frequently, ordered her to rectify as Lin Lang said, and praised her for giving her coupons well. Ke min was glad he was right.

    Two days later, Fengxin came to recheck for Jing Hua. The former crown prince has lost his skills. He went a few days ago. Zhuo Xi asked people to guard him with Bairi red fruit. Sure enough, at the moment of swallowing, a colorful insect crawled out of his nostrils and went straight into Bairi red fruit. The little eunuch didn''t dare to delay. He put it directly on the red hot iron plate. The poisonous insect crawled out after being heated. As soon as it came out, it burned to death on the iron plate and immediately became ashes.


    Jing Hua ate the ashes and the pain subsided after three days.


    The hyacinth sent a pill to dispel the remaining poison and restore his mind. It said that he would recheck it for him in a few days.


    Zhuo Xi accompanied her to check the birch, adjusted the prescription, and went back.


    In the evening, Jing Yuan came with a body of water vapor, and when he came, he looked resentful. Zhuo Xi was startled. "Who is angry with you?"


    "You."


    Zhuo Xi was even more baffled, "what''s the matter with me?"


    "Is the wind coming today?"


    "Here she is. She came to see Jing Hua again. Jing Hua took the ashes of Menggu from the crown prince, and it was much better. I think it''s about to recover. If he recovers, what are your plans? "


    "Wait until he wakes up completely. I want to ask him what he means, whether he wants to be a vassal in a distant place or to go back to Liangzhou to garrison the border. At present, the southern frontier is not very peaceful, and he is familiar with the affairs of Liangzhou. If he wants to go to Liangzhou, I have a great task to entrust him. "


    Zhuo Xi said "Oh", served him, sat on the machine, took a dry cloth and twisted his hair, "is the prince Rong coming?"


    "Here we are. He told me that they had delayed some time because of Jing Hua. This time, they were really ready to leave in two days. "


    "I''m also very happy that they can achieve good results now."


    "When did the hyacinth leave?"


    Zhuo Xi recalled, "it seems that she said it was time for the prince to take medicine, and she passed. She went to the study? "


    "Naturally, I went to the study. What she said was the younger martial sister I watched grow up, and there was nothing to avoid. "


    Zhuo Xi helped him brush his hair and looked at his expression. "People show their love. What''s wrong with you?"


    "What''s wrong with me?"


    Zhuo Xi understands¡° Can''t bear a Xin? " Also, my younger martial brother, who has always been regarded as a brother, turned into a younger martial sister and married his former subordinates... I have to sigh for another person. Thinking of this, she comforted, "now they are happy with each other, and ah Xin really opened his heart knot again. They will have a good life in the future. Isn''t this the best ending? What else do you have to worry about? "


    "No, I saw Ah Xin feed him medicine today..."


    "Ah?" Did they even avoid it¡° "I don''t want a Xin to serve others?"


    Jing Yuan turned around and looked at her sadly.


    She was puzzled again. Did she do anything? Nothing?


    She had to ask clearly, "honey, can we make it clear? Guess and guess, the IQ will be reduced... "


    He had to cross his heart. "Have you been busy lately?"


    Isn''t that nonsense? I haven''t been busy since I entered the palace. Have you forgotten what to do?


    "The little eunuch who served the tea in the study was always not very dedicated. Either the tea was too cold or it was too hot!"


    "Why are you so careless? No, the palace will call him tomorrow to teach him! " Zhuo Xi understood. Her eyes blinked. She put down her handkerchief and said, "OK, let''s go and have a rest." On the other hand, he said, "I found that the profession of the king and queen is really a little inhumane. Ministers and workers have a rule of ten days off. Why don''t we have a day off? You said, "how about a ten day holiday?" There is no distinction between work and life. There is no concept of living at all


    If she said this in front of the empress dowager, it would make her laugh and cry, but Jing Yuan seriously considered it and discussed with her, "it''s spring day now. If we can take a day off, we can go to Mingxiao mountain for an outing. If we can go, we can take her out to relax..."


    They got into bed. Jing Yuan habitually put his hand on the plump in front of her chest and was ready to sleep honestly.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly giggled.


    He wondered, "what''s the matter?"


    "Hold her up!"


    He was overjoyed. His head went into her arms and said happily, "why didn''t you remind me earlier?"


    She giggled. "What are you reminding you of?"


    "Naturally, let Wuhe add some ingredients to my tea and soup..."


    Can she live?


    "No, no, you''re fine..."


    "Really? I''m really good? "


    ¡­¡­


    The happy ending is that Zhuo Xi wakes up in low back pain the next day. The people around him are gone. The curtain is dark and I don''t know the time. She had to shout "Spring Festival Gala."


    When the Spring Festival Gala came in, she brought two palace maids, as well as water basins and clothes.


    The Spring Festival Gala is spring flowers. After they moved to Ning''an palace, they were equipped with 24 maids and 12 eunuchs. She gave names to several maids in charge of the inner room. They were also ranked by the word "spring", namely spring Gala, spring sunny, spring dawn and spring scenery. Even Xiaoli was changed to spring warm. Several little girls were very happy. As soon as the name changed, the vulgarity immediately disappeared.


    The Spring Festival Gala became a palace girl.


    She served the queen and got up to dress her. When she saw the blue and purple marks on her body, she couldn''t help blushing to her neck at the thought of their happy voice last night. She secretly made up her mind to warn those little girls who were not familiar with the world that they should stay away from night duty and don''t make a fuss when they heard the voice. Fortunately, I was on duty last night. If I was ruined by the little girl, wouldn''t I be dead?


    Zhuo Xi looked at the Spring Festival Gala and blushed inexplicably. Knowing that she knew everything, she couldn''t help blushing. She had to secretly rejoice that there was a bathroom in her bedroom, avoiding the embarrassment of calling water. These close servants will know in the future. Besides, they are good and they are happy. She was calm when she thought so.


    As she dressed, she asked, "what time is it?"


    "It''s the end of time to go back to your mother."


    It''s almost nine o''clock? She was startled. She basically didn''t get up after seven o''clock. "Is it so late? Why don''t you wake up the palace? I have to go to the Empress Dowager''s place to greet you. "


    The Spring Festival Gala said with a smile, "don''t worry, Queen. When the king left, he told you not to wake you up. The Empress Dowager''s side, he will send someone to say. "


    Asking for leave for such a thing... Zhuo Xi was ashamed


    "What''s on the agenda today?"


    "The maidservant went and called Lord Xiao." The Spring Festival Gala replied.


    Lord Xiao is Xiao soul.


    Zhuo Xi always thought it was too wasteful for Xiao soul to be invisible as a dark guard. One day, Jing Yuan said that she was now a doctor of wupinbing pen. She had a whim and called Xiao soul out to ask her if she would like to be her personal secretary and arrange her daily work. It can not only protect the body, but also stand in the open. I don''t want Xiao soul to readily agree.


    She jokingly asked Xiao Hun why he agreed without hesitation?


    Xiao soul replied, "I see you have so many ghost ideas. It should be fun to be your personal secretary..." these days, she saw Zhuo Xi''s various behaviors clearly in the dark. Some things are very novel. She was eager to try for a long time. She regretted that she had to hide in the dark. When she heard that the queen had a clear job arrangement for her, He agreed without saying a word.


    And after working these days, she is very satisfied with this way of work. Take a book and arrange the work content of each period. If you can''t arrange it, it will be postponed. Everything is very orderly. Sometimes I can sneak out of the palace with the queen and go to the beauty nourishing hall.


    So Hua Yan was also very happy. There was Xiao soul during the day, so she only needed to be on duty at night. In addition to sleeping at other times, she can often go to Xiyan Yangsheng hall for maintenance.


    So Zhuo Xi began to implement the appointment system. He first drew up a copy and handed it to Xiao soul to check, and then made an appointment to negotiate or discuss. In this way, there will be no more busy days. Her time became controllable, and she could arrange time to go out of the palace to see her shop.


    So when Zhuo Xi washed her face and was combing her hair, Xiao soul came in with her big book. The queen asked her to sew dozens of thin silk together, pad it with a thin wooden board, grind the charcoal branches, clip them into the wooden stick and teach her to write. It was really convenient and easy to use.

 Chapter 162

    She had looked through today''s arrangements countless times, but she still looked at it and reported to her, "it was originally planned to go to the Empress Dowager at the beginning of the day. When she returned to the palace at the end of the day, what manager of Shangyi Bureau wanted to report on the production and budget of summer clothes. At a quarter of an hour, he came left to report the time when Mrs. Qin moved to the palace. At that time, manager Wang of Shangshi bureau came to report the summer menu, At a quarter past three, the five rivers University Council came and asked her mother what she wanted for lunch. She had lunch and had a rest. Luo Yuan and Xiaojun Ji were coming to visit. Just after the time of application, Mrs. qingyuanbo came to Shane. At the moment of application, Mrs. yuanyangbo and Mrs. yuanyangbo came to thank you. "


    After hearing this, Zhuo Xi remembered that yuanyangbo was his nominal father, and yuanyangbo''s old lady and wife were Wu''s grandmother and Liu''s immediate mother. I''m a queen, and my mother''s family naturally wants to share honor. I issued a decree yesterday, and I came to thank you today. Generally, Shane only waited for half an hour. I''m afraid Xiao soul knew that he wanted to talk more with his grandmother, so he squeezed Mrs. qingyuanbo''s time. Instead, he waited for more than an hour for them to reunite? She thought about the sidewalk. "It''s a little empty at noon today. In the Spring Festival Gala, you go to the kitchen and order to prepare some Cordyceps pigeon soup. At the end of the time, the palace will take it to the study. At the unitary time, the old lady Yuanyang and her party had dinner. The diet was slightly lighter. They were sent out of the palace at three quarters at the unitary time. " The light will be on at 8 o''clock. Let them go back earlier.


    Xiao hunli added a stroke to the floor.


    Zhuo Xi said, "the palace has negotiated with the king. In the future, we will take a rest every ten days every month. If there is no thirty at the end of the month, we will take a rest on the last day. You must remember not to have any plans these days. " She suddenly misses the days when modern people take five days off and two days off. In this way, she has only three days off at most in a month


    Xiao soul was very happy, "that officer..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "if there are no special circumstances, you can naturally have a holiday ~" she then said with a smile, "Ziran adult also has a holiday..."


    Xiao soul''s face turned red. "What''s the matter with Lord Zi Ran?"


    Zhuo Xi lengthened her voice, "Oh - there is nothing to do with it, but the spring breeze is warm. Swallows know not to live up to the good time of spring -"


    Xiao soul stamped his feet, "my servant, go down first to see the folding sent by manager he."


    Zhuo Xi laughed and chuckled at the Spring Festival Gala. It''s really relaxing and pleasant to be a job in Ning''an palace. As long as you don''t make any mistakes between the king and the queen, you won''t be punished easily. Several sisters got together again and could talk and laugh. The maidservants and eunuchs in and out of the palaces did not respect each other. Their days were many times better than those in the deserted Ziyang palace.


    Today, instead of going to the Empress Dowager''s, she sent chunnuan and brought two boxes of new snacks to the Empress Dowager''s place to greet her and see how three meals a day are arranged to suit her appetite. It turned out that mother Wang in Hou''s house is now the head of Shangshi Bureau. She makes an appointment to come to her every few days to learn from her. She taught manager Wang the general methods and tastes of several delicious dishes, and would adjust some medicinal meals according to the season to the Empress Dowager. The sudden change in the dietary style of the whole palace is not due to the great appetite of the Empress Dowager. Even Mrs. Qin, the old lady of the palace, is full of praise.


    When she sat at the breakfast table, she was pleasantly surprised to find that the fried dough sticks she mentioned a few days ago had been made successfully. She suddenly had a big appetite. He hurriedly asked the Spring Festival Gala to send a little girl to send some of the new food to the Empress Dowager to taste, but he told the little girl that mammy Su could only let the Empress Dowager taste it and never eat too much.


    After breakfast, when walking around the yard, Xiao soul followed her and said something about the arrangements for the next few days. Suddenly, chunnuan rushed in and breathlessly presented a small purse.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. Xiao soul carefully took his purse and opened it. His face changed. She carefully took out the contents and held them in front of Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi''s face changed greatly.


    "The eunuch from Chunli palace kowtowed," said the queen. I just went to Ci''an palace to greet the Empress Dowager. When I passed by the small garden in front of Ci''an palace, a small eunuch stopped me and said, "the grandmaster in Bai''an palace wants to see the queen."


    That''s a jade bone token.


    She used to be very familiar with the texture, but the seal characters engraved on it are different from her own side. They write the word "Wen".


    After queen sun was demoted to beauty sun and imprisoned, it is reasonable that Xinjun ascended the throne. She would also be promoted to become too beautiful. However, the Empress Dowager was angry that she poisoned Emperor Wu and Emperor an and her direct grandchildren. Although she took her son to Mrs. Qin, it was too cheap for her to let her die. She kept dragging her name away and just imprisoned in Bai''an palace. Now the first king''s empress only has a son under Mrs. Qin''s knee. Other ladies and beauties are sent to the imperial temple. Mrs. Qin wants to move to the Qing''an palace closer to the Empress Dowager to hide in peace, so Zhuo Xi wants to choose a secluded palace after Mrs. Qin''s relocation for beauty sun to move there. After all, Bai''an palace is the original middle palace. It''s really inappropriate for her to stay as a forbidden beauty.


    Why does she want to see herself? What did she say last in the former king''s ear? At that time, she took a distant look. What was her deep meaning? Besides, why did she send a jade bone token? What does she have to do with the feather coat? Is she also the blood of the previous dynasty?


    The mysterious sect leader behind the feather clothes club has not made any action recently. Is it related to sun Yao''s imprisonment?


    Zhuo Xi''s curiosity, which was buried by busyness these days, stopped and asked Xiao soul, "where do you think you can squeeze some time out? Let''s go and see her? "


    Xiao soul looked at the book and said, "today is full... Or tomorrow..."


    Zhuo Xi thought, "maybe it''s already three quarters. Don''t have to see the palace when the five rivers come. Just explain these things to the Spring Festival Gala. However, the pigeon soup prepared in the kitchen is still available. Let''s go to Bai''an palace and have a look. If there''s nothing wrong, we may come back soon. We can''t delay the later things. "


    "Promise!" Xiao soul raised his pen and changed it.


    Xiao soul asked again, "beauty sun is tricky, and the poisonous insects are mysterious and dangerous. Do you want to call flowers?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at her and joked, "why, you forgot your martial arts when you became my personal secretary?"


    Xiao soul said, "more people, more protection. I''m just afraid just in case. "


    Zhuo Xi also thought carefully and asked chunnuan, who was still kneeling, "chunnuan, get up first and talk back. Have you been contacted by Xianglan these days? "


    She hasn''t heard from Xianglan for a long time. Dingzhou and Yingzhou reported everything to Ke min, and Kou Niang helped her take care of those affairs in Liangzhou.


    Chunnuan thanked en and stood up. "Sister Xianglan didn''t know I had entered the palace, but wrote to Xiaoji and them. Last time Xiao Ji brought a letter to say that sister Xianglan asked them to take good care of themselves. If anyone from the feather club comes, don''t pay attention. They all find it strange. Xiao Ji wrote a letter and asked, but she didn''t reply. "


    Zhuo Xi looked dignified. The secret way was bad. He quickly asked Xiao soul, "is there an improper dark guard in the palace?"


    "Yes, Hua Yan..."


    "Go and ask her to protect someone for me..."


    "But your side..."


    "It''s not too late to inform the people concerned that everything will be postponed. You follow me to Bai''an Palace first." She raised her feet and left Ning''an palace. She couldn''t wait for the soft sedan.


    Xiao soul immediately asked chunnuan to shout Hua Yan.


    She followed zhuoxi''s footsteps and went to Bai''an palace.


    Spring Festival Gala and speechless also keep up.


    On the way, Hua Yan came quietly. Zhuo Xi explained where she was going and what she was going to do while walking.


    At Bai''an palace, it was cold in front of the door.


    Zhuoxi of Bai''an palace has been here several times before. Which one is not crowded and endless? Now the closed door is wide open, suddenly I feel much more spacious. The decoration is still the original decoration, and the furnishings are also the original furnishings. However, those things seem to be suddenly eclipsed when they lose popularity.


    When she came to Bai''an palace before, she had no idea that she would become a queen one day.


    I didn''t expect that the colorful Bai''an palace became a cold palace.


    Su Mei is still the big maid of Bai''an palace, but she looks haggard between her eyebrows and eyes.


    She respectfully gave Zhuo Xi a big gift, "the Queen''s mother Jin an Wanfu."


    "If your master wants to see this palace, don''t be polite. Lead the way." Zhuo Xi said.


    "Promise."


    Su Mei led Zhuo Xi and his party to the inner room with a low eyebrow.


    Sun Yao sat on the floor with her back to them.


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand, and Su Mei and the Spring Festival Gala went down speechless.


    Only Xiao soul was still standing next to her, holding a book in one hand and a pen in the other, and wanted to record at any time.


    Zhuo Xi ignored and went straight to sun Yao.


    Sun Yao closed her eyes.


    Zhuo Xi said, "you want to see the palace. The palace is here now. Why don''t you talk?"


    Sun Yao still combs her queen''s hairstyle and hairpin, and wears a queen''s dress. It looks even more gorgeous than Zhuo Xi.


    Sun Yao''s eyes suddenly opened, "this palace? Ha ha... "


    Zhuo Xi ignored her, turned to Xiao soul and said, "Lord Xiao, sun''s dress is out of order, and the clothing bureau is not properly managed. You should be punished. Please ask Wu Zhang to come and ask him if you are free this afternoon. You can do what you have to do. There is no need to report to the palace. "


    Xiao soul immediately promised to record it.


    Sun Yao stopped laughing and said coldly, "Queen Wu is such a big shelf! How dare you go to the palace! "


    Zhuo Xi stood up straight, "Xiao soul, sun''s dress is beyond the moment, and he doesn''t know how to repent. What sin should he commit?"


    Xiao soul immediately replied, "the staff scolds twenty."


    "What is the crime of being rude?"


    "Palm mouth thirty."


    "What crime should we commit if we disrespect our house and despise the king?"


    "Yes, stick to death."


    "Sun''s dress is out of order, he speaks unkindly and despises the king. He is punished for several crimes. Please record it first and ask the Empress Dowager to take charge of it tomorrow. It''s too cruel to die with a stick. My palace heard that there is a kind of torture in the dark prison, which cuts off people''s limbs and keeps them in an urn for 40 years without dying... "


    "Wu Yuan, dare you!" Sun Yao stood up, and finally some angry blood color appeared on her haggard and pale face.


    Zhuo Xi patted his sleeve, "now this palace is the queen of a country. You are in charge of the affairs of the rear palace and the model of women''s virtue. Since you speak unkindly and despise the power of heaven, the Empress Dowager Kuanren sent you to the imperial temple of the royal mausoleum to practice and guard the tomb for all ancestors. By doing so, the palace has not only won the name of the Empress Dowager''s charity, but also won a good reputation for filial piety and respect. It can also make you live well and kill with one stone. Why dare you? "


    "Wu Yuan, aren''t you afraid that your true identity will be exposed to the world?" Sun Yao trembled with anger.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Oh? The real identity of this palace? I don''t know that I have other identities. You might as well tell me? "


    "Do you think all the people in the world don''t know the truth? I have found out that you are not the sixth young lady of the Wu family at all. You are the blood of the Yu family of the previous dynasty! The royal family of the former dynasty has now become a street mouse that everyone can kill in the five countries! If the king knew that his queen was Yu, how would he react? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said slowly, "if this palace told you that the king knew it long ago, can you believe it?"

 Chapter 163

    Sun Yao stared, "no, it''s impossible!"


    Zhuo Xi also told her, "he also knows that this palace is not a real Yongzi order Lord. What are you afraid of? "


    Sun Yao shook her head and couldn''t believe it. Has she been wrong all the time?


    "Therefore, even if you catch Yu Menglai and threaten the palace and the king, it will not help. Because this palace has no blood relationship with Yu Meng at all, how can this palace be threatened by you? "


    Sun Yao gnashed her teeth with hate. "I didn''t expect you to be so cold-blooded that you don''t even care about your brother''s life!


    "No, he is not so much the younger brother of the palace as your own nephew, isn''t he, aunt Mingying?"


    "What?!" Sun Yao was tottering. "Do you know? How did you know? "


    "Didn''t you send a written jade bone token to the palace?"


    "Why? With a written order? Even if I am the leader of the written order, how can you conclude that I am Mingying? " The cards are so easy to be exposed. What else does she take to negotiate terms with the country in front of her?


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "because the palace suddenly figured out why you would rather die than let seven Prince Huan ascend the throne."


    Sun Yao''s eyes shot hatred, "what did you do to huan''er?!"


    Zhuo Xi said, "no, the mother is kind, how can she start with her own grandchildren? He did not have a mother who wholeheartedly wanted him to revenge, nor a mother who forced him to be the king of a country. If he is raised under Mrs. Qin''s lap, he will only be happier than if he were raised here with you. "


    "Hahaha, I''m thinking of letting him take revenge wholeheartedly? I forced him to be the king of a country? I let him have the supreme dignity and the supreme power in the world. Am I wrong? " Sun Yao smiled and burst into tears. "I avenged my family. I let Yu family regain power in the world. Am I wrong again?"


    Zhuo Xi said with pity, "you are wrong. And it''s a big mistake! " She condescended, "if it weren''t for your blood of Yu family, you would have died thousands of times by poisoning three generations of emperors and princes. Can you still sit in this cold palace and eat and drink?"


    "I''m not willing! Why? Why didn''t he kill me when he knew that I was a descendant of Yu clan? " Sun Yao''s eyes are red.


    Zhuo Xi approached her slowly. "Do you really want to know?"


    Sun Yao stared at her and Xiao soul stared at her for fear of any accident.


    Zhuo Xi attached to her ear and said a word gently.


    Sun yaoru was struck by lightning, muttered to herself, and burst into tears, "no, no, how could it be like this, how could it be like this..."


    Zhuo Xi stepped back and took a look, "by the way, I forgot to tell you that Mrs. Qin sent someone to tell the palace yesterday that the royal doctor found that huan''er might be born deaf and can''t hear."


    Sun Yao rushed up and shouted sadly, "no! no You tell me, none of this is true... "


    Xiao soul struck her and knocked her to the ground.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t look at it, but gently said to Xiao soul, "let''s go."


    On the way back to Ning''an palace, Zhuo Xi urgently ordered the Spring Festival Gala, "come on, let chunnuan write to Dingzhou and let Xianglan come back right away."


    "Promise." The Spring Festival Gala gave a gift and hurried away.


    When she reached the gate of Ning''an palace, a figure rushed out. Xiao soul turned and blocked Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised and shouted, "Xianglan!"


    Xianglan fell at her feet and burst into tears.


    Chunnuan also knelt aside and said incoherently, "queen, the five river supervisor in front has brought sister Xianglan to see you. Slaves dare not make decisions without authorization. Just now, after listening to the Spring Festival Gala, my sister said that you wanted me to write to her and let her come back, I thought you might want to see her, so I decided to bring her in. "


    Zhuo Xi only hesitated and stepped into Ning''an palace, "come in and talk."


    Zhuo Xifu sat down at the head. Xianglan jumped over and knelt down and kowtowed several heads. "Slave, congratulations to the queen!"


    Zhuo Xi was suddenly a little tired, waved her hand and came straight to the point, "are you here for your aunt Mingying?"


    Xianglan was surprised, "you, you know?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled angrily, "when did you know?"


    "Just a few days ago, as soon as the slave and maid figured out the joints inside, they immediately rushed over."


    "Tell me, how did you figure it out?"


    "The maidservant has been busy with the opening of Feiyu zuiyuxuan semicolon in Dingzhou, and often needs to call the silver money of the total number of Kyoto. Some time before Emperor Wen''s trip, the maidservant found that the silver money of the total number of Kyoto can hardly be raised, and the sisters of Yuyi gate can hardly contact except Xiao Li. Later, such a big event happened in Kyoto. Xiao Li wrote to tell my Lord that you had registered the queen. The maid was surprised and happy. She wanted to come and send you a congratulatory instrument in person, but she didn''t dare to move without your order. So he asked the shopkeeper of Dingzhou to send you the congratulatory instrument for you. But I haven''t heard from you or Xiao Li, so I became suspicious. Later, the maidservant found that everything she wanted to send to the palace could not be sent out, so she had to ask someone to bring a letter to sister Ke min, and told them to ignore it if someone came to them at the feather gate, and send a letter to the maidservant in time. But soon the letter from sister Ke min couldn''t be delivered. The maid was burning with anxiety. She didn''t know if something had happened here, so she wanted to come and have a look in person. As a result, I packed up my baggage and wanted to go out, so I was stopped by the semicolon. It turned out that the shopkeeper of the semicolon was also a member of the feather clothes sect, and the maidservant didn''t know him. Her Kung Fu was so good that she put her maidservant under house arrest in the semicolon''s wing. The maid waited for more than ten days before she found a chance to escape. The maidservant realized that the feather coat door must have changed a lot. Sister Ke min''s sisters are all new girls in the past two years. The sect leader doesn''t use them, but he''s afraid to frighten the snake. It shows that what the sect leader is planning must be related to the Lord. The great changes that have taken place in the past two months are nothing more than after the LORD was canonized. The sect leader was always mysterious and had the right to call a large amount of gold and silver. In addition, it was rumored that queen sun was determined to help seven Wang Zihuan ascend the throne, even at the expense of her own life. Thinking of these, the maid immediately understood that Aunt Mingying, the leader of the feather clothes sect, was queen sun. She wanted to avenge the Yu family and restore the country with her own life. So as soon as she arrived in Kyoto, she immediately found sister Ke min and sent her to the palace to see her master. I hope you are not late! "


    After hearing her explanation, Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and asked, "you already know that Aunt Mingying is sun Yao. You''re not afraid to find the wrong person when you come to see the palace?"


    Xianglan sobbed, "queen, although Xianglan is the blood of the Yu family, the feather coat gate is also bent on looking for the descendants of the Yu family, but Xianglan has never thought of any great plan to restore the country and revenge. Aunt Mingying has never disclosed her thoughts to us. She just undertakes these silently, just in case things fail and don''t affect us. She had never met us, and the maid didn''t even know what she looked like. At the beginning of its establishment, yuyimen was a secret health organization with the purpose of protecting Yu family members, but over the years, in addition to secretly protecting Yu family''s descendants from harm, it has never done anything harmful to nature and reason. Instead, it has adopted those abandoned girls every year. Yuyimen has a general hospital in Cangzhou, only 20 miles away from Kyoto. The girls they pick up have been raised from a few months to their teens. Special personnel have been assigned to teach them martial arts, character recognition and work. There are also some girls who lack arms and legs in the general hospital to help with common affairs. Those with sound limbs and good health will be released when they are old. On the one hand, they earn some meager coins for slaves and maidservants and send them back to the general hospital. On the other hand, they look for jade bone tokens and perform the task of defense. All this happened only after aunt Mingying took charge of the feather clothes door. Even if she makes a big mistake, please spare her life for the sake of her doing so many good deeds! "


    She banged her head on the ground.


    "So, you''re not here to warn the palace, but to plead for your aunt Mingying!" Zhuo Xi''s face is as cold as iron.


    Xianglan''s face was stiff, "the queen, the maidservant is not only a warning, but also..."


    "What a loyal slave!" Zhuo Xi shouted, "come on, take this maid to Bai''an palace and let her reunite with her aunt!"


    "Queen!" Xianglan looked at her incredulously.


    Zhuo Xi snorted coldly, "you already know that this palace is not the real eternal word order Lord?"


    Xianglan understood and was shocked, "no! Mother, Xiao Meng, he didn''t say anything! "


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "did the palace say what Xiao Meng said?"


    Xianglan''s face was as gray as death.


    Zhuo Xi drank again, "can''t you hear what the palace says?!"


    Speechless hurriedly brought two people in from the door and dragged Xianglan out.


    Chunnuan knelt in front of Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "why, one by one, have come to the palace to show their loyalty?"


    Chunnuan rushed to her feet, "empress, you, why do you suffer so much!"


    "What are you talking about?!" Zhuo Xi looks like frost.


    "Slaves and maidservants grew up in the feather gate when they were young. Every year, they watched those sisters release. Some sold themselves as slaves and some sold themselves as prostitutes. No matter how much they earned or how little they earned, they would think that they would not send some money to eat and eat back to the general hospital. Sometimes I bring bags of food and clothes back to see us. Every year we also see new sisters being picked up, some are lame, some have no hands at birth, and others are dying when they are picked up. We are all hard-working. If we are lucky, we will practice martial arts and prose and be released smoothly; If you have bad luck, you will die in a cold. Although sister Xianglan is the commander of the Chang word order we want to protect, she sees that we are so short of money, and she doesn''t hesitate to sell herself as a slave for the convenience of going out to inquire about the news. After she met you, she often sent money to send us clothes and food, and wrote to us that you were a heroine, which not only let her take charge of Feiyu zuiyu Pavilion, but also gave many opportunities to the sisters of Yuyi sect. When we were recruited to Xiyan Yangsheng hall, she specially told us to learn from the master and not to do anything sorry for the master. So I thought she would never betray you. It''s just that she and aunt sun are consanguineous nephews. How can she watch her die? "

 Chapter 164

    "I don''t know. You are such a talker."


    Chunnuan gasped and then said, "queen, although I know the time when I follow you, I also know that you are not a man with a heart of stone. You want sister Xianglan to reunite with aunt sun. In fact, you want sister Xianglan to persuade her not to do anything stupid. Come on? "


    Zhuo Xi smiled angrily and pointed to her, "you''re a smart man. You look stupid! Since you are so smart, why don''t you go and see if Xianglan has advised you? Go and see if your aunt sun is looking for life or death? "


    Chunnuan screamed, "queen, maidservant dare not..."


    "Come and tie this bitch to Bai''an palace! Who dares to beg for her! "


    Wordless brought two more rough eunuchs in and took chunnuan away.


    Zhuo Xi exhaled and sat on the chair, with a slight smile on her mouth.


    After a while, Xiao soul came in, "Wu Zhang of Shangyi Bureau and Wang Zhang of Shangshi bureau have been waiting for nearly two hours. Would you like to meet them first or have dinner first? "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered the yam pigeon soup made in the kitchen.


    "Make a new appointment for them. The palace is going to the study now. Let''s put lunch there."


    Xiao soul should be here.


    Zhuo Xi sent Chunjing, brought pigeon soup and went to the study. It was almost noon.


    Seeing her coming from a distance, Wuhe politely ran to follow her. Before that, Jingyuan said she would leave the five rivers to Zhuo Xi, but she refused. She was always afraid that there would be any bad ideas about the five rivers, but she saw that he had been very considerate to Jingyuan and had a good impression on him, so at the moment, she politely asked him to get up and praised him, "you do your best to serve the king, and this palace will keep it in mind."


    The five rivers were elated, but still repressed their excitement and replied, "the slave was lucky to have the king''s green eyes and had the opportunity to serve the king. It''s really a great honor for the slave."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and asked as she walked, "is the king in the study?"


    "Isn''t it? This morning, the king received seven or eight officials and servants. The slave wanted to let him drink hot tea and exercise his muscles and bones, but he couldn''t move him. Madam, you have to find a way for the slave. "


    Zhuo Xi went to the door of the study and was about to lift her feet up the steps.


    A figure on the step knelt down first, "see the queen."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned when she heard the familiar voice. She raised her eyes and saw Wu Xing kneeling at the door. She was surprised, "big brother?"


    Wu Xing raised his eyes and said with a smile, "my minister is here!"


    "Brother, please get up! How did you become the golden guard? "


    "Thanks to the great love of the king, I have only been here for a few days and have never had a chance to say hello to my mother."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "in the afternoon, grandma and mother will go into the palace and talk to the palace. Are you on duty? If you''re not on duty, come and meet them? "


    Wu Xing knew that she was very ashamed to say so, so he respectfully said, "my father was honored as yuanyangbo, and my grandmother and mother should go to the palace to thank me. If the minister is not on duty, he will send them. "


    "So good." Zhuo Xi nodded and smiled and stepped into the door of the upper study.


    Chunjing followed in, saluted, put down the pigeon soup and went out again.


    Jing Yuan, who was originally sitting behind the book case, immediately jumped up to Zhuo Xi and hugged her, "Xi''er, you''re coming!"


    Zhuo Xi said, "your concubine''s family has been sealed by you all over. Are you not afraid that someone will impeach your concubine''s family tomorrow?"


    "What are you afraid of, impeachment is impeachment!"


    "You give them so much honor and favor that you are not afraid of the dictatorship of your relatives?"


    "Will you be in power that night?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "No, what do I want to do?"


    Jing Yuan shook her hand and said with a little coquettish, "you have exclusive power. If you have exclusive power, I''ll give you all the management of the hundred officials..."


    Zhuo Xi patted his hand, "what nonsense are you talking about! A generation of emperors, if they even let out the power to manage hundreds of officials, will they still be emperors? "


    Jing Yuan sighed, "don''t bother you. Come and help me. Are there any mistakes or omissions in the structure diagram I listed? "


    He pulled zhuoxi to the desk.


    Zhuo Xi took a breath. This is a huge and complex official structure map. There are more than a dozen layers from the big Sima general to the lowest official head of household.


    Jing Yuan said, "this staggered management method came from the management method you told me the day before yesterday. You see, from top to bottom, there are hierarchical division management, and from horizontal, there are mutual restraint and supervision of affairs. There are a total of 3642 officials, big and small, in the whole country. All of them are on this map. Can you see if there are any mistakes or omissions? "


    Genius, what a genius! Zhuo Xi unconsciously raised her thumb¡° It''s so complicated. It''s much more complicated than the 36 people in my harem. I can''t help you. I''ve stewed pigeon soup for you. Drink it while it''s hot! "


    Jing Yuan smiled happily. Sure enough, she complained to her last night that it was effective for hyacinth to give medicine to Prince Rong


    He fished her to his leg, "you feed me..."


    Zhuo Xi froze for a moment, "why didn''t you think you were so childish before..."


    "Isn''t that because of you? Try someone else? "


    Zhuo Xi had to scoop a spoonful of soup and pass it to his mouth, "drink it! Can''t stop your mouth? "


    He smiled, "Xi''er is the best!"


    Zhuo Xi froze again. Sure enough, she couldn''t hear such words?


    She quickly changed the topic, "I didn''t arrange for lunch this noon. Let''s put lunch in dongci room?"


    Jing Yuan was overjoyed. "It''s good for you to come and have lunch with me."


    "After lunch, go for a walk in the garden? I can''t bear to stay in my study like this all day. "


    He nunuo mouth toward the side of the book case and wailed, "a pile of memorials! I don''t know when it will end... "


    She took a look and was startled, "so much!" Next to the book case is a separate small case, which is filled with high memorials.


    "How long have you been dragging on?"


    "Two days!" Jing Yuan said painfully, "there are so many every two days! I only discussed the matter of Wulin mountain with Zi Ran yesterday. After a day''s delay, I saved so much! Look over there. It''s too long to make a decision for a while. Xi''er, please come and help me... "He pointed to a pile of high memorials by the wall


    Zhuo Xi helps the forehead. Is it because he has to deal with so many memorials every day in recent months? She was really convinced


    She glanced at a book in front of the desk, opened half of the memorials and said, "do you want to set up a good hall in Shangjiu square of Shuntian mansion? You have to approve such trifles yourself? "


    Jing Yuan said bitterly, "yes, first Wang YuXun, everything in the world depends on the top. Therefore, the memorials of major and minor events of officials should be directly heard by heaven, for fear that there is something that has not been taken into account. Although the establishment of a good hall is small, it also needs additional money. The inner government dare not decide without authorization, so it has to send the memorial to me. Not only from Kyoto, but also from officials everywhere... "


    Zhuo Xi is surprised. Compared with modern times, ancient Wenshan Huihai is no inferior.


    She turned to the official structure map and asked strangely, "the officials closest to the emperor are three gongs and nine Qings... What are they in charge of?"


    Seeing that she was interested, Jing Yuan happily explained, "the three gongs are Sikong, Sikou and Sima, who are in charge of civil affairs, humanitarian law, defense and military affairs. Under them, they are divided into nine Qing, who are doctors, upper doctors, middle doctors and lower doctors... Although they perform their respective duties, if there are no rules to follow or involve things that others can''t decide, And sent them all to the widow. " She asked strangely, "haven''t these things been discussed by the cabinet?"


    "What is the cabinet?"


    "Is there a joint meeting system? Is that several departments with different functions discuss matters within their respective terms of reference? "


    "You mean the Grand Court meeting? If there are even few people who can''t make a decision, or considering other issues, it needs to be discussed at the court meeting. For example, if we set up a small good hall, we can''t swing the pen at will. There are a number of money in the house. If we give an extra money today, we will take another one tomorrow, and sooner or later, there will be a big hole. So I''m going to call Sikong for questioning again... As soon as I come and go, there will be a huge backlog of folding pieces... "


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "I have a little suggestion for your reference. If you have to use it, you''ll forget it if you can''t use it. OK?"


    As soon as Jing Yuan saw her look, he knew she had an idea and asked excitedly, "give me an idea! I was afraid of being locked up in the palace before. I was afraid of dealing with such government affairs... "


    Zhuo Xi said, "when I was studying in the school that day, master mentioned a cabinet system, that is, to set up an organization, select six to eight main core people from the three gongs and nine Qings to walk in the cabinet, receive official memorials and meetings every day. If they are within their authority, they will directly decide to form an executable plan and report it to you. If you think it is feasible, you will approve a standard word. If occasionally some small things are not within their scope of authority, let them call relevant people to participate in the discussion, and then form a plan to you. You just need to approve one word, will you not be happy? " In fact, she doesn''t know how the real cabinet system works, but simply lists some functions of the modern general office.


    Jing Yuan was overjoyed, "in this way, I will save the time to call them for questioning! Their affairs can also be solved quickly! Besides, the collective consultation of several members of the cabinet also avoids the suspicion of personal arbitrariness... Xi''er, please tell me in detail how the cabinet operates... "


    When he thought of Wumo, please come to the pen room again


    They drank the pigeon soup between waiting for him to come.


    When Zi Ran came, they were already sitting upright.


    Then Zhuo Xi explained in detail with them the modern joint meeting system, document submission standards and processes, document distribution standards and processes, event implementation process reporting and summary system, etc... Jing Yuan and Zi Ran were excited and eager to try.


    Zi Ran''s eyes at Zhuo Xi can no longer be described as "worship"


    Jing Yuan kicked him, "don''t go down and sort it out soon after the record is finished. We''ll discuss this event at the great court meeting tomorrow!"


    As soon as the cabinet was established, he felt that he could finally be liberated

 Chapter 165

    Zhuo Xi asked, "Xiao soul is waiting for the palace in Xici room. Go and tell her that the palace will accompany Wang Shang to take a walk in the garden after lunch. Let her go back first. When you are on duty in the afternoon, go to Ning''an palace again. "


    Zi Ran''s face was happy, "promise."


    When he went out, the five rivers also came in with a happy face, "Your Majesty, the queen, the lunch has been arranged, but you want to move to the East Second room?"


    Zhuo Xi made a quick decision, "go to dinner first, and these memorials will let them sleep for another two days. Two days later, they have a good place to go! "


    Jing Yuan was also elated. He stood up and stretched. His anxiety and haze since he was in the top position were swept away. "Madam, please --" after that, he felt wrong again and made a gesture again, "no, Queen, please --"


    She smiled like a flower and walked out with her head held high.


    When eating, he said, "I haven''t seen my mother for several days. How is she lately?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it''s good. No matter how busy you are, you should also remember to come out from time to time to relax. State affairs are important, and the dragon body is even more important. "


    He said with a smile, "if the cabinet is established in the future, I will have time for activities and often go to see my mother."


    She thought for a moment and asked, "Mr. Wang, why don''t you keep Zi ran around and be a close secretary? Just like Xiao Hun around me, make a schedule of the people and things you want to see and deal with every day, so as not to have endless things and no fixed time to move your muscles and bones... "


    "I mentioned it to Zi Ran, but he hesitated. I didn''t have a good candidate for the moment, so I delayed..."


    "Why did he hesitate?"


    "Maybe this is a new career. He''s afraid of no grade..."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Xiao soul didn''t consider the grade at all. If this is a problem, you might as well add several cabinet posts when you set up the cabinet, which are specially used to arrange the schedule, prepare the manuscript and write the report for you, prioritize the affairs, how to report the urgent affairs and how to deal with the non urgent affairs, all of which will be presented in a chapter... "


    Jing Yuan nodded as he listened. His face was full of joy.


    After lunch, Zhuo Xi took him to the imperial garden, enjoying the flowers and taking a walk


    Jing Yuan took a deep breath, took hold of the beauty around him, and sighed, "old naive is caring for me. She sent a transparent person like the queen to help me govern the country..."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the palace maid eunuch who followed him. She couldn''t be too proud. She had to quietly pinch the meat under his armpit and said, "if the king thanks me, it''s better to find a good husband for my mother''s sisters!"


    He became interested. "Xi''er rarely asks me to do something. Tell me, which family''s son do you like?"


    Zhuo Xi had to say, "they didn''t come to Shane until this afternoon. Mother has always been worried about jiao''er''s marriage. I''m afraid she has an idea... "


    "You mean..."


    "I heard that my mother sent someone to Huayang palace to inquire about Hua''er a few days ago..."


    As soon as Jing Yuan heard this, he looked sarcastic, "give her some color, but she opened the dyeing room!" Originally, the Wu family was just a small official with five lives. If it weren''t for Xi''er''s relationship, how could they have a chance to set foot in the circle of honor and honor?


    Her relationship with the Wu family is clear to Jing Yuan, and he doesn''t blame him for looking down on the Wu family.


    She also communicated with him first, "I don''t know what they think. My Lord, doesn''t Hua''er have a favorite?"


    Jing Yuan''s face was cold. "Even if there is, can he think of it?"


    Which woman can''t even think of the three princes?


    When she saw that he was not worried, she didn''t ask, but said, "if your mother mentioned the marriage of your two sisters, do you have a suitable person in your heart, king?"


    Rather than let them find out, it''s better to start first. If the king can marry them, it''s a kind of dignity.


    However, her relationship with the Wu family may end there, and there will be no public kindness thereafter.


    Jing Yuan thought seriously, "Mrs. Chang''an and Mrs. yuan Yangbo were stimulated before. After returning to the house, they both fell ill. In the final analysis, it is a private matter within the royal family. I have always wanted to compensate the two families. It happened that the wife of the eldest son of Chang''an had just died, and it was understandable that she continued to play in her warm filial piety; Yuanyangbo''s second son is not yet weak and has no engagement. If these two families can become friends with the Queen''s mother''s family, Mrs. Chang''an and Mrs. yuan Yangbo can rest assured. "


    Zhuo Xi thought carefully, but it was really. The two were former Prince Dan. They were surrounded by the Royal Palace at night and suffered from the fish pond that day. It is said that they were ill for two months and could not get out of bed. I''m afraid they were afraid of killing the royal family. Why don''t you worry about breaking such a secret? But for this, Jing Yuan couldn''t appease. This method is really good. Then she said, "it was really my concubine''s negligence. Two days later, my concubine invited them into the palace to talk. "


    Jing Yuan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.


    "By the way, Ziran and Xiao soul, what''s the matter with them?" Speaking of the young man''s marriage, Zhuo Xi always wanted to gossip.


    "What else can they do? Since they jointly carried out the task in Wulin mountain, Zi Ran was haunted. When he returned to the palace, he often wandered in front of the widows. Once he deliberately dropped a hairpin... "


    Zhuo Xi chuckled, "can''t you see that Zi Ran still has the courage to play in front of you?"


    "So I deliberately ignored it, pretended not to understand it, and looked at the day when he begged in front of me, and I would laugh at him again."


    Zhuo Xi said happily, "my Lord, Zi Ran is still a child. How can you tell him?"


    "Oh, this hasn''t become the husband of Xiao soul in your family. You, the master, began to feel distressed?"


    "In the eyes of our palace, he is our son-in-law. If you bully him, you should weigh it carefully..."


    "Hey, hey..."


    They laughed together.


    Jing Yuan took her in his arms and whispered in her ear, "is it almost enough to eat? Let''s go to the bedroom and have a lunch break... "


    Zhuo Xi immediately Hongxia soared, "my Lord, they are all watching behind..."


    "Who dares to look?"


    Zhuo Xi turned to take a look. Sure enough, he saw Wuhe with several palace maids and eunuchs thinking about it behind the wall.


    She coughed and asked loudly, "Inspector Wuhe, what time is it now?"


    Wuhe quickly turned around, "just after noon."


    She nodded. "Let''s serve the king and go back to the bedroom to have a rest."


    Five rivers immediately came over and bent down to lead them back to the bedroom hall. On the way, he whispered a few words to the little maid in waiting. The little maidservant saluted and ran away quickly.


    Zhuo Xi looked interesting and didn''t want to know what they did.


    When we arrived at the bedroom hall, some palace maids had already held washing things and waited aside. Zhuo Xi served Jing Yuan and simply cleaned her face, so she let them all go down.


    Jingyuan lay on the bed and Zhuo Xi tucked him in. "Jingyuan, you have a rest. I''ll go back to Ning''an Palace first."


    Jing Yuan grabbed her hand and went to the couch. "Madam, I haven''t heard you call me Jing Yuan for a long time. You sleep with me. "


    Zhuo Xi helped the crooked hairpin on her head, "look at my pearly head. I can''t comb it if it''s messed up!"


    He turned over with a smile and pressed her under his body, "I''ll comb it for you!" He said and kissed her on the lips.


    She cried with a smile and scolded, "no, it''s only a quarter of an hour. I have to go back to Ning''an palace. Cousin Luo Yuan will come in the afternoon!"


    "Then let her wait, or make another appointment!"


    "How can this work! I can''t break my appointment for everything, or where will the prestige be in the future? "


    Jing Yuan stopped and had to hold her. "Then stay with me for a while!"


    Zhuo Xi thought and nodded.


    Soon his steady breathing sounded.


    She sighed, and a pain welled up in her heart. Since he took office, he went back to Ning''an palace to rest at midnight every day. He had to get up and go to court before dawn. He was really tired like a dog... He finally knew the crux today... I hope he won''t be so busy in the future


    Just before the time, Zhuo xikan arrived at Ning''an palace. Luo Yuan and Xiaojun Ji had been waiting for a while.


    When she saw Zhuo Xi, she bowed down, "see the queen."


    Zhuo Xi quickly helped her up. "Xiaojun Ji doesn''t need to be polite."


    Then they went to the main hall and sat down. Zhuo Xi smiled and asked, "I heard that Chang Ji Wang was caught in the wind and cold. Now she is very well?"


    Luo Yuan hurriedly said, "my mother has been well. I specially asked me to thank the queen. Thank you for the soup medicine sent by your mother a few days ago. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "I don''t have a pulse in the palace. I don''t know whether the prescriptions are suitable or not. They are just some medicine for strengthening the body."


    Luo Yuan thanked you again.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her and asked, "that was many days ago. You just came to Shane now. Isn''t it because the drunken man doesn''t want to be in the bar?"


    Luo Yuan''s face showed a blush, "in fact, I should have come to congratulate my mother. I just got grounded by my mother a few days ago. "


    "Foot ban? What did you do to make your mother angry? "


    Luo Yuan said, "on the day of the empress''s canonization ceremony, I just wanted to see my aunt''s prestige. If my mother doesn''t come by herself, she won''t let me come."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly reacted. She said, "aunt" refers to herself, covered her mouth and smiled, "aren''t you familiar with this palace? What''s the prestige? I tell you, the Japanese palace is so nervous that it is about to fall down. Fortunately, it has not made a big fool of itself. "


    Originally, she didn''t know that Jing Yuan only invited the family members of the Wu family to watch the ceremony behind the curtain and let Wu Zhilian and Wu Xing Hang behind the ranks of 100 officials. Later, she knew that it was for the purpose of "sharing the world and ruling peace". This sentence was meant for her and her family. If other women''s dependents listen, they will inevitably have some different thoughts.


    Luo Yuan giggled and called out her previous title, "sister Zhuo Xi has always been calm in the face of danger and turned the tide. How can she have stage fright?"


    Zhuo Xi asked curiously, "how old is Xiaojun Ji this year?"


    "It will be fourteen next year." Her eyes are shining, "said mother. She''s going to give me a hairpin ceremony. Sister Zhuo Xi is going to send me a congratulatory instrument? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "naturally, there are greetings. What month next year?" She also learned later that the hairpin ceremony here is not too important. Generally, Xun GUI''s family will take this opportunity to invite some family friends to get together, but ordinary people don''t care.


    "July!" She said quickly, for fear that she might repent, and said, "my mother said that the praiser would invite a respected elder, and yuan''er immediately thought of you..."


    Zhuo Xi was startled, "the four words of high virtue and high prestige have nothing to do with the palace anyway..."


    Luo Yuan coquettishly said, "in the eyes of yuan''er, your aunt is kind-hearted, generous and capable. She is a highly respected heroine..."


    ... why are these adjectives so awkward when they are superimposed together?


    Zhuo Xi reluctantly replied, "well, the Palace should be you."


    Luo Yuan smiled happily, "ah, that''s right." She called out "magpie."


    A little maid came in with a box, respectfully saluted the queen, put down the box and went out.


    Luo Yuan said, "my mother asked me to bring it to the queen and asked her to appreciate it."


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Xiao soul. Xiao soul came forward and opened the box and held it in front of Zhuo Xi.


    At a glance, the storm surged up at the bottom of Zhuo Xi''s heart.


    She motioned quietly for Xiao soul to put aside, smiled and said to Luo Yuan, "it''s very beautiful. Thank Wang Changji Jingmo for our palace. The Empress Dowager was still talking about you to the palace a few days ago. Can you go and greet the Empress Dowager? "


    Luo Yuan quickly stood up. "Yes, yuan''er forgot to greet his grandmother. Yuan''er is leaving now."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "don''t be in a hurry."


    She shouted to the door, "spring is warm. Bring a box of today''s Jujube crisp and let yuan''er take it to her mother to try it."


    Luo Yuan said happily, "that kite will borrow flowers to offer Buddha!"

 Chapter 166

    After seeing Luo Yuan off, Mrs. qingyuanbo comes to Shane.


    Mrs. qingyuanbo had a hundred day banquet for her little golden grandson the day before yesterday, and the queen had a reward as usual. She came to thank the queen for her gift. Generally, this kind of gratitude is just two words, and then talk about home affairs at will. It can be finished in about a few minutes. So Xiao Hun waited for 15 minutes, obviously to give her some time to rest.


    Shane is the most relaxed to receive this kind of noble. When she doesn''t want to talk, she listens to them. Her face shows some impatience. Those noble women who are good at observing their words and expressions can immediately notice it and will soon get up and leave. If the other party is an old qualified person and has an old relationship with the empress dowager, she will recommend the other party to meet the Empress Dowager and relieve her boredom and loneliness by the way.


    So after days of reception, she finally had a little understanding of the whole xungui women''s family in Kyoto and their relationship.


    But today she had Jing Yuan''s reminder, so she learned from Mrs. Qingyuan about the style and people of Bo Shizi of Chang''an and the second son of Yuanyang, and kept her for a while.


    Soon Xiao soul reminded Shen that the moment had come. Mrs. Pingyang Botai and Mrs. Pingyang Botai were coming to thank you.


    When Mrs. qingyuanbo left, she showed an expression of enlightenment.


    When Mrs. Pingyang Botai and Mrs. Pingyang Botai came in, they were different from last time. They made up a lot according to the product, which was very grand.


    Their faces were filled with joy. They knelt down and gave Zhuo Xi a big gift.


    Zhuo Xi hurried forward to help the old lady and Liu after the ceremony.


    "Grandma and mother, they really hurt the palace. Please get up quickly."


    After thanking them for their kindness, they stood up, repeatedly said "etiquette cannot be abolished", and then sat down on the seat given by the queen.


    Liu took a gift box he had brought with him, presented it with both hands and said, "queen, your wedding day is too tight, and jiao''er has no time to embroider some pillow cores for you. These are some handkerchiefs specially embroidered by jiao''er and ru''er for you. They say it''s a little intention between sisters. I hope your mother doesn''t dislike it. "


    Zhuo Xi laughed in her heart. She was afraid that Wu Jiao was still angry when she got married. Did she spoil her good play in the palace? So when she got married, as a sister, Wu Ru sent several pillowcases and handkerchiefs. Wu Jiao said nothing. Is it a wake-up call now?


    She motioned Xiao soul to accept it and said, "don''t be polite, my sisters. Please go back and thank the third and fifth sisters for the palace. "


    Liu Shi hurriedly said, "you''re welcome. This is what sisters should do. Both jiao''er and ru''er liked the reward given by the empress the day before yesterday. They kept shouting that they wanted to enter the palace to thank you. It''s just that jiao''er and ru''er don''t understand the rules. They are afraid of bumping into their mother. They are asking the steward mother in the palace to teach them the rules for a few days. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "the rules are dead and people are alive. If you just want to refuse with the rules, it''s too much. The palace feels that mother should not be too demanding. "


    Liu''s face changed.


    The old lady also said, "your mother is right. These two girls are used to it. Where can they learn the rules in a while? According to my old self, the Wu family is just a family that relies on their mother to get rich on the way. It''s really funny to want to turn their daughter into a great girl at one go! "


    Liu Fu Ming said that she wanted to marry her daughter in a hurry. Jiao''er and ru''er will both be fourteen next year. If they plan to get married early, they won''t be blind temporarily, won''t they? "


    Zhuo Xi was a Shen. "Mother, I''m old and young. Where''s my sister-in-law? Has the second sister-in-law decided on a candidate? "


    Liu''s face changed again. She had only one daughter, and having no son had always been a pain in her heart. Wu Xing and Wu Yan are both sons of concubines. They were raised in front of the old lady since childhood. She has never paid attention to their marriage. Hearing Zhuo Xi''s question, he knew he was wrong, so he had to murmur, "your eldest brother is only seventeen this year. He left home to practice in the army when he was twelve. I met several girls for him last year. He said they were too young... "


    The old lady is a clear-minded, "you are the housewife. Although Xinger and Yaner have not grown up around you since childhood, you should plan some things as soon as possible. This is also my negligence. Thank you for reminding me. " The last sentence was said to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "grandma said very correctly. I heard that the Wu family held a flower feast yesterday? "


    Liu Shi was surprised. How could he be introduced into the palace? But she could only nod and say, "it was a good time for flowers to bloom in spring. The peony planted next to the falling moon hospital where you used to live was in excellent bloom, so I invited several good sisters to get together."


    The old lady changed her face, but she refrained from saying anything.


    Zhuo Xi smiled again. "I heard that Mrs. Yan Yuanbo gave you an embroidered face of peony on the river. It''s very beautiful. If my mother comes to the palace next time, she can bring it to the palace. "


    Liu hurriedly knelt in front of Zhuo Xi, trembling all over, and dared not say a word again. Even the patterns on the embroidered surface sent by Mrs. Yan Yuanbo, she knows. Can''t she know the contents of her conversation with these ladies? Although I only inquired about the three princes, if I only got the patent, then I would be stigmatized as coveting the heavenly family. How can I raise my head in front of your lady Xun in the future? I can only blame myself for being too depressed.


    Zhuo Xi''s smile did not change, "mother, why? All the family members are elders except the younger sister. Originally, these words should not have been said by the daughter of this palace. Although the Wu family''s seal is the due honor of our mother''s family, it is inevitable that they will not be jealous. The palace believes that it is better for everyone to be low-key and cautious, whether in the inner house or in the outer court. When Wang SHANGCHU ascended the great treasure, it is inevitable that there are places beyond the reach of the palace. At present, the situation is not stable. On the father''s side, I''m afraid my daughter doesn''t listen to me, so I have to ask my grandmother to remind me. It is said that an old family is like a treasure. Mother, you should consult your grandmother more about everything. Mother, do you think so? "


    This is already very obvious. As the Queen''s mother''s family, there will be honor, but don''t expect too much.


    Liu''s forehead was in a cold sweat, and the old lady got up and knelt down, "please follow the instructions of the queen."


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief. "Grandmother, mother, please get up."


    They sat down again. Zhuo Xi asked about the marriage of the two sisters, "does mother have a favorite candidate?"


    Liu didn''t dare to mention it again at this time. He just replied, "I''m still asking, and please pay attention to my mother.".


    Zhuo Xi said some polite words such as "my sisters'' marriage will naturally be in my heart". After chatting for a while, they got up and left.


    Zhuo Xi ordered chunnuan to send them out, and gave them a lot of rewards.


    After they left, Zhuo Xi said wearily, "Xiao soul, make time tomorrow to see his Highness the third prince."


    "Promise."


    Xiao soul said again, "general Dingyuan''s wife sent someone to inquire and wanted to make an appointment to come into the palace to thank you."


    "General Dingyuan?" Zhuo Xi didn''t think of who this man was for a moment. Did she know him?


    "It''s Wang Feng, the city guarding general who was stationed at Heyong pass."


    "Oh, it''s him. Then his wife... "


    "His wife is Wang Jialin, the former king, and the sister of Wang Meimei."


    "If it were her, I could see it. Let''s do it the next day. Is there any space for the next day? "


    Xiao soul said with a smile, "madam, the day after tomorrow is the tenth day of the new year. I dare to tell you that he is a bright skipper? She couldn''t laugh or cry. "What if the result of the North Korean discussion is that the cabinet is not established?"


    "It''s impossible. How can those qualified to join the cabinet give up such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"


    Sure enough, he grew up in the center of kingship. He immediately saw the essence of such a new thing. The cabinet is actually equivalent to a single decentralization of royal power. Spread to several people. On the surface, it is jointly discussed by several people, but in fact, these core figures of the cabinet have absolute authority within the scope of their respective functions and powers. Under normal circumstances, as long as it does not hinder their own interests, who would be foolish to interfere with the terms of reference of others to raise objections? Under the role of the cabinet, they handle affairs more widely and faster, which virtually greatly strengthens their own power. How can those who have become golden eyes in the morning not know the value of this cabinet?


    Not only those who have been qualified to join the cabinet, even if some people have no qualifications at this time, but the Korean situation has always been 30 years east and 30 years West. Who can resist such a temptation to join the cabinet? Who doesn''t give birth to a glimmer of hope?


    However, Zhuo Xi raised a little concern, "in fact, your affairs have been reduced, which means that your power has been delegated. Don''t you worry about... Being elevated to some extent?


    Jing Yuan looked at her in surprise and asked, "what kind of environment did you grow up in? I know nothing about the situation in central Korea, but I can always see the changes in the situation and the truth behind it... "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "when I was in the school, the school already had a mature and effective management system. Naturally, you can see better. Although the establishment of the cabinet system has the advantages of streamlining procedures and absorbing public opinion, the disadvantage is that your authority has been weakened. I think a key point of tomorrow''s discussion is, when the final resolution of the cabinet is different from your law, how should we deal with it? "

 Chapter 167

    Instead of going back to Ning''an palace, she took Xiao Hun in a sedan chair and went to Huayang palace with a maid eunuch.


    Jing Hua got the news early and waited in front of the inner hall with the eunuch.


    Zhuo Xi walked into the hall with a smile. Jing Hua led the people to kneel neatly, "see the queen, the queen is blessed and safe. I have lost my welcome. Please forgive me. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "please get up quickly. You are ill in bed. Don''t be polite. Why don''t you go to bed? "


    Jing Hua stood up with the support of the eunuch, raised her head, but said respectfully, "thank the queen for her concern. The empress has repeatedly lost her honor in front of Feng Jia. Now she''s awake. How dare you offend?"


    Zhuo Xi sat on the main seat, looked carefully, and was secretly surprised. The proud son of heaven, who used to talk and laugh with them, now has only a sick face, and his thin body floats in his wide clothes, as if he would fall down again at some time.


    She pondered her words. "The temple asked you to shout birch, okay?"


    Jing Hua pulled out a little smile and arched her hands. "The queen is both Hua''er''s aunt and the head of the harem. If she can call Hua''er, it is her aunt''s love for Hua''er. How can she ask for big words?"


    Zhuo Xi heard some overtones, "what do you mean..."


    Jing Hua got up from her seat and knelt down again. "Hua Er owes her aunt an apology."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t understand, "where does this start?"


    Jing Hua kowtowed three heads. "On that day, uncle Liu was injured. Hua Er was very anxious and said something bad to his aunt. Therefore, she secretly hated her aunt for some time. Now she is very sorry. Please forgive her."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and said with a smile, "I see. It''s all over. It''s all over. Don''t take it to heart. People always have to look forward. " He is still a child


    Jing Hua fell on the ground and her eyes became red. Is she comforting herself? For so many days, from the day he knew the cruel facts, he felt that his whole world had been subverted and he was confused. Later, someone woke him up with a needle. When he woke up, he remembered the iron and blood truth and ran away in confusion and depression all day. Today, a man finally came to tell him that those things have passed, and people always have to look forward... I think of her intelligence, agility and resourcefulness. She saved Uncle Wang from water and fire many times. She left her head and horse on the day of Liangzhou''s wedding... Now I hear that she has organized the harem and advised the king. Such a woman... Doesn''t she indulge in pain all day because she wants to lead her to see herself again?


    He held these thoughts in his heart again in horror, raised his eyes and was about to say something, but the person above said, "get up quickly, this palace doesn''t blame you. The ground is cold. Don''t freeze any more. "


    A eunuch came to help him. He got up and sat down and thanked her, "thank you, madam. Wei Chen knows what to do. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at his cheer up look and sighed in her heart that she was really a child


    She asked again, "how are you feeling recently? What''s wrong with the medicine soup?"


    Jing Hua made up her mind and looked calm, "there is no discomfort, but her body is soft and weak. She has been lying for too long."


    She motioned Xiao Hun to hand over the amazing gift box, "this is what the Empress Dowager asked the palace to bring you. Whether it is suitable or not, you have to check your pulse. Just sit here and the palace will give you a pulse. "


    Then she told Xiao soul, "bring the door so that his Highness the three princes won''t blow."


    Xiao soul understood that he took out all the palace maids and eunuchs pestling in the hall and closed the door.


    She explored his pulse, took the prescription he used, added and added a few herbs, and told him, "this Centennial ginseng is of great benefit to your physical recovery. You should use it and walk around more often. It''s estimated that you won''t have to take medicine in a few days. "


    "Thank you, madam."


    "Birch, what are your plans in the future?"


    "When the king came to visit Wei Chen the day before yesterday, he asked Wei Chen whether he would like to go to Meizhou in the west to become a vassal or stay in Liangzhou to take over the king''s affairs in Liangzhou. Weichen wanted to go back to Liangzhou. First, I am familiar with the common affairs of Liangzhou. Second, if there is a war in the south, I would like to have a try. "


    "It would be great for Hua Er to have this ambition. However, there is one more thing for the palace. I hope Hua''er will do it for the palace after she recovers. "


    Jing Hua was stunned and asked.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and asked, "do you remember the cup that Zi Ran broke in Hou''s house that day?"


    Jing Hua''s eyes were cold and knew that this matter was important, "naturally I remember. Wei Chen still remembers that you insisted on telling the secret of the Lantian white jade pot. Wei Chen was scared and ran away... "


    Zhuo Xi said happily, "Hua Er, not only the king, but also our palace trusts you very much. Although the king has just ascended the throne, the countries around him are ready to move. Although the king did not say it clearly, this palace knows that he has lofty aspirations. Will you give him a hand? "


    Jing Hua immediately knelt down, "Weichen, don''t die!"


    "Well, it has something to do with the Lantian white jade pot. You know, there is a map hidden in the pot, but your sixth uncle Zhi was not here before, so he didn''t pay more attention. Now that he has accepted your grandfather Wang''s will, he naturally wants to find the treasure to support the huge expenses of the border war. You are now recovering from illness behind closed doors. It would be best if you could study the secret in this pot. "


    Jing Hua''s eyes were bright. "Don''t worry, aunt. My nephew will slowly put the picture of this pot of four lamps together!" What needs to be done in secret is naturally reassuring to our own talents.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "not a pot of four, but two pots of eight..."


    Jing Hua was surprised, "why?"


    Zhuo Xi said a pot of four lamps sent by Jing mo.


    Jing Hua said with a smile, "whether it''s a pot of four or two pots of eight, my nephew will spell it out as soon as possible! If you don''t spell it out, your nephew will not recover for a day! "


    Although he knew that what he said was a cover up, he couldn''t help saying, "who curses himself like this? Don''t say that again! "


    "Yes!"


    Zhuo Xi put down her heart, "these two pots and eight lamps are hidden under the Centennial ginseng. You have to put it away. "


    "Yes. My nephew knows. "


    Zhuo Xi thought of another thing, "by the way, the Empress Dowager asked about your marriage today. Are you sixteen this year? Is there someone you like? "


    Jing Hua''s face turned red immediately.


    Zhuo Xi wondered if she had asked too directly, so she had to smile again, "if you have a person you like, don''t hide it from your aunt. If the Empress Dowager or the king gives you a daughter-in-law you don''t like, don''t ask your aunt to cry. "


    The red on Jing Hua''s face faded, "aunt, my nephew doesn''t have a favorite now. Everything is up to the elders!"


    "That''s good. Then the palace will go back first. "


    Zhuo Xi saw his embarrassment and didn''t force it. She got up and went out.


    "Congratulations to the queen..."


    Zhuo Xi returns to Ning''an palace. The heads of Shangyi Bureau, monk and Food Bureau who were delayed the day before have been waiting in front of Ning''an palace. She had no choice but to meet them quickly and arrange the affairs of the harem.


    After sitting down and taking a breath, Xiao soul came in and said, "there''s news from Bai''an palace. Do you see it?"


    Xianglan''s business is important. Zhuo Xi didn''t hesitate and asked, "Xianglan, is it still warm in spring?"


    "Together, they said they wanted to go back to their mother."


    "When will there be an opening today?"


    "After another cup of tea, Mrs. Qin will come to see you. There''s no room in the back. There''s only one hour for lunch. The lower officials don''t dare to arrange it at will. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, "or at noon. Send someone to the king to say that this palace will not pass today. Then order someone to go to Bai''an palace and bring Xianglan and chunnuan back together. "


    After that, she sighed again, "fortunately, tomorrow is mu Xiu. This day is really not for people..."


    Xiao soul pursed his mouth and said with a smile, "does your mother think it''s too tight? Or, after that, the scheduling will be more relaxed? "


    Zhuo Xi thought, "it was OK a few days ago. These two days there were just emergencies. How about this? In the future, you ask them to draw up a fold for such small things as divining the auspicious hour on the left of the waiting clock and the menu and clothes at four o''clock. It''s ok if the palace is free. You don''t have to come and say everything. It''s easy for them to report everything, and it''s convenient for the palace. "


    Xiao soul agreed, "if there are any small things they can''t decide, they don''t have to show them in person, the lower official will let them all plan to fold up. I''m afraid some people don''t know words well... "


    "It''s not easy. I''ll find some literate female officials tomorrow and ask Zi Ran to find a writing civil official to teach for a few days. Then I''ll ask them to prepare folding notes for those writing aunts."


    "This method is very good. In the future, these female officials just send and receive folding and keep each piece on file. If they forget anything in the future, they can not only record the truth, but also inquire about the old practices. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded approvingly, "you still know my heart very well. Why don''t these female officials belong to the Secretariat? How about you being their leader and managing them for the palace? "


    Xiao soul smiled, "as long as the empress needs, all the lower officials will follow."


    "After bathing, you can do it tomorrow. In a few days, find a vacancy for the palace. The palace wants to go to the wind garden. "


    "Wind garden? But the wind garden in the northwest corner of the palace? "


    "Exactly. You ask chunnuan to prepare a set of light clothes for the Palace first. "


    "Promise."


    "You said Mrs. Qin would come later? But to move the palace? "


    "She didn''t say that. She just said it, Shane."


    After a few words of gossip, a palace maid came to report that Mrs. Qin had come.


    After saluting, Mrs. Qin sat on the brocade machine.


    Zhuo Xi had only two sides for the former king''s beloved Mrs. Qin, both at the banquet, so she didn''t say a word. So Mrs. Qin was completely confused about what she said about coming to thank her. However, it was said that the Empress Dowager''s water insect disease was a warning given by Mrs. Qin, so she was full of good feelings for her.

 Chapter 168

    Zhuo Xi returned to Ning''an palace. The head of Shangyi Bureau, monk and Food Bureau, who had been delayed the previous day, and other relevant people had been waiting in front of Ning''an palace. She had no choice but to meet them quickly and arrange the affairs of the harem.


    After sitting down and taking a breath, Xiao soul came in and said, "there''s news from Bai''an palace. Do you see it?"


    Xianglan''s business is important. Zhuo Xi didn''t hesitate and asked, "Xianglan or spring warmth?"


    "Together, they said they wanted to go back to their mother."


    "When will there be an opening today?"


    "After another cup of tea, Mrs. Qin will come to see you. There''s no room in the back. There''s only one hour for lunch. The lower officials don''t dare to arrange it at will. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, "or at noon. Send someone to the king to say that this palace will not pass today. Then order someone to go to Bai''an palace and bring Xianglan and chunnuan back together. "


    After that, she sighed again, "it''s lucky that tomorrow is mu Xiu. This day is really not for people..." anyway, we should have a good rest tomorrow


    Xiao soul pursed his mouth and said with a smile, "does your mother think it''s too tight? Or, after that, the scheduling will be more relaxed? "


    Zhuo Xi thought, "it was OK a few days ago. These two days there were just emergencies. How about this? In the future, you ask them to draw up a fold for such small things as divining the auspicious hour on the left of the waiting clock and the menu and clothes at four o''clock.

    Xiao soul smiled, "as long as the empress needs, all the lower officials will follow." Nowadays, it''s much better than hiding in the dark and staring at the master all day.


    "After bathing, you can do it tomorrow. In a few days, find a vacancy for the palace. The palace wants to go to the wind garden. "


    "Wind garden? But the wind garden in the northwest corner of the palace? "


    "Exactly. You ask chunnuan to prepare a set of light clothes for the Palace first. "


    "Promise."


    "You said Mrs. Qin would come later? But to move the palace? "


    "She didn''t say that. She just said it, Shane."


    After a few words of gossip, a palace maid came to report that Mrs. Qin had come.


    After saluting, Mrs. Qin sat on the brocade machine.


    Zhuo Xi had only two sides for the former king''s beloved Mrs. Qin, both at the banquet, so she didn''t say a word. So Mrs. Qin was completely confused about what she said about coming to thank her. However, it was said that the Empress Dowager''s water insect disease was a warning given by Mrs. Qin, so she was full of good feelings for her.


    Mrs. Qin said, "I''ve always heard the name of the empress. Now I see that the empress has organized the whole harem in just a few months, and I know that the rumor is true."


    Zhuo Xike said, "madam, I''m flattered. The palace is also slowly improving through constant exploration. How''s huan''er with you? But still obedient? "


    Speaking of her heart, Mrs. Qin beamed, "Huan Er just started to climb when she held me in the palace. I let people spread mattresses in the palace, and he climbed all over the house. I have to learn to walk these days. I often stand up and take two steps, and then sit on the mattress again... "


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "I heard earlier that huan''er''s ear force seemed to......"


    Mrs. Qin looked sad. "The imperial doctor said that his ear power was not as strong as ordinary people. I''m afraid... However, the imperial doctor is now looking for a cure. I don''t know the result."


    "Hope is a good thing. Just wait for the good news."


    Mrs. Qin nodded, then got up and worshipped, "madam, I came to thank her this time. I thanked my mother for her trouble to move my concubine to the palace; Second, thank you for your great kindness and let me have a place to lean on after that. "


    Zhuo Xi was startled and hurriedly got up to help her, "this palace can''t be your gift. Moving the palace is just a small matter. It''s just a matter of making your hands happy. Madam, don''t take it to heart. Moreover, madam Tai is mistaken. It''s not the idea of our palace to let you raise huan''er. It''s the idea of the Empress Dowager. " She knew that the Empress Dowager was also grateful for her timely warning that day, so that she had seven princes under her name, so that she would not be sent to the temple to accompany the green lantern.


    Mrs. Qin got up and sat down, smiling, "I know. On that day, Queen sun was banned by Empress Dowager FA''s mother after she returned to the palace. The next day, the Empress Dowager had a decree to let me raise huan''er. I took huan''er to thank him for his kindness for days. The Empress Dowager asked her concubine to often take huan''er to play in Ci''an palace. But Huan Er often wakes up at Mao, sleeps again at Chen, and wakes up again at noon. I had to take him to greet the Empress Dowager at the end of Shenshi. For more than three months, I never met my mother in Ci''an palace. I wanted to make an appointment with Lord Xiao, so I got the time to come today. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "no wonder the Empress Dowager''s spirit is getting better recently. She often talks about huan''er''s interesting stories with the palace. It turns out that it is the credit of Mrs. Tai. In this way, on the contrary, the palace wants to thank the Taifu. "


    Mrs. Qin hurriedly said, "you can break my body by saying so. Speaking of it, the Empress Dowager is also my mother-in-law. I was too ignorant and afraid of the majesty of the empress dowager, so I had a share with the Empress Dowager. I''ve been walking around a lot recently. I learned that the Empress Dowager''s illness can be cured. It all depends on her good hands and kindness. If there were no empress, how could my body be today? So I want to thank my mother. "


    Zhuo Xi realized, "if not for the timely warning of Mrs. Tai, the palace and the king could not get the condition of Zhimu as soon as possible. If we really talk about it, good will be rewarded. Don''t be too polite, madam. "


    Mrs. Qin smiled awkwardly. "I just found that the maid in waiting was different that day. After asking carefully, I knew what she had done to the Empress Dowager. I was so scared that I didn''t know what to do. Beauty Wang was surprised to make such a bad decision. Only poor beauty Wang was young... "


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t take this conversation, so she had to continue, "the empress mother has been in great sorrow one after another, but huan''er is just lovely. If Mrs. Tai wants to, she can always take him to greet the empress mother to relieve her depression."


    Mrs. Qin took a break and drank a cup of tea ceremony. "Yesterday afternoon, the Empress Dowager said that she was going to Mingxiao mountain to worship the Buddha tomorrow? Although huan''er was small, he was always the son of the former king. But I wonder if I have the honor to serve the Empress Dowager together? "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Was this her real purpose? She thought huan''er was too small to take out in the sun. But Mrs. Qin was not willing to let huan''er be too far away from the family center? She thought for a moment. It was unreasonable for her aunt and nephew to take it with her, but the immediate nephew didn''t take it with her. Yu then said with a smile, "since we are a family, how can we go? I''m afraid you''ll be tired on the way. "


    Mrs. Qin looked happy. "I''m a daughter-in-law. It''s rare to have the opportunity to serve my mother-in-law. Where can I say I''m tired? Besides, there are so many palace maids. I just hope the Empress Dowager doesn''t dislike my clumsiness. "


    After a while, Qin Taifu left.


    Zhuo Xi called the Spring Festival Gala in. "Send someone to Huayang palace to send a message and ask his Highness the third prince. Tomorrow I will accompany the Empress Dowager to Mingxiao mountain to worship the Buddha. The king will also go and ask him if he can get up and go together?"


    The Spring Festival Gala should go here.


    Before long, Xiao soul led Xianglan and chunnuan in.


    After they came in, Xiao soul winked at the other maids and closed the door again.


    Xianglan and chunnuan knelt down and gave a big ceremony in good order, "I''ve seen the queen."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t say much, and directly asked "how''s sun Yao?"


    Xianglan replied, "thank you for your help. Her aunt, who has given up her will to die, said she would like to be imprisoned in the cold palace and save the rest of her life. And let the maidservant bring these things. "


    Chunnuan holds a brocade box.


    Xiao soul opens it and presents it to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi saw that there was a jade bone token with no words but patterns on the top, and the following were the land deeds, human deeds and account books of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan given to her that day, as well as the accounts and registers of other feather clothes doors.


    Xianglan vomited to the ground and said, "my aunt said she wanted to entrust the feather door to her mother."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t want to, "she''s going to end up in failure. Now she wants to hand over this mess to this palace?"


    Xianglan said, "no, my aunt wanted to see her mother the day before yesterday. Unexpectedly, she was greatly hit without saying a few words with her mother. The original plan can''t be said. When the maidservant saw her, she had cried until she had no tears. It seems that I can''t see it clearly for two days. " Xianglan sobbed in a low voice, "I thank you for saving my aunt''s life. Thank you for your kindness to Xiao Meng. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, I would like to be disposed of by my mother. "


    Zhuo Xi said strangely, "what big mistake did you make? Why should the palace deal with you? "


    Xianglan raised his eyes and couldn''t speak. After a long time, he asked, "the day before yesterday, my maidservant ran into my mother... My maidservant should die!"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the warmth of spring and said in a warm voice, "you are loyal to the Lord, and the palace can''t blame you."


    Xianglan looked up hurriedly, "I''m not a slave. I''m protecting her, just because she''s my aunt. Over the years, my aunt has nurtured slaves, but she has no sense of master and servant. She had never called her maidservant or instructed her to do anything for her. Aunt she didn''t do anything except to find her maidservant back to the feather door... She didn''t explain anything these two days. She just said that there are all contact information about the feather door in this brocade box. I''ll give it to you. You will naturally know how to deal with it. She just wanted to bear it by herself... "


    Speaking of the end, I was already sobbing


    Chunnuan didn''t dare to speak, but silently shed tears to show her the same position as Xianglan.

 Chapter 169

    Zhuo Xi asked again, "you said your wish has been fulfilled?"


    Xianglan suddenly stopped crying, wiped her tears, raised her eyes and looked at her, with a hope in her eyes.


    Zhuo Xi did not answer, but looked at her with a smile.


    Xianglan''s spirit flashed, worshipped again immediately, and said in a trembling voice, "I remember that when I met my mother on the first day, I said that I would never deceive my master in this life. I want to tell you the truth. I haven''t realized all my wishes, I haven''t recognized Xiao Meng, and several brothers and sisters haven''t been found... "


    "There was nothing to punish in this palace, but you still have a wish. In that case, why don''t you study it carefully? Is there any clue left in the brocade box? Can find one is one! "


    Xianglan was stunned and stared at Zhuo Xi. He couldn''t believe his ears. Among the five kingdoms after the split of the kingdom of Yudian, which of the royal family of the former dynasty did not hide their names, hide their heads and shrink their tails. Now the queen of the Wuliang Kingdom asked her to look for the descendants of the Yu family? Brocade box asked her to study, didn''t it mean that she took over the badminton club? In the eyes of the royal families of the five countries, shouldn''t the feather clothing association be a rebel organization?


    She subconsciously pulled one side of the spring warm sleeves, "Xiao Li, am I dreaming?"


    Chunnuan also looked confused and forced, "maybe..."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and gave Xiao soul a wink. She went back to the tea break room to have dinner.


    After she had eaten, she went back to the bedroom and took a lunch break. Xiao soul also came to be on duty. Chunjing helped her pull her hair.


    The Spring Festival Gala came in and said, "those two little girls are still kneeling outside."


    "Eh? Did the palace ask them to kneel? "


    "No, they said they knew they were sinful and asked their mother to forgive them..."


    "Then go and tell them that the palace forgives them, and there is nothing for the palace to hate. Let them have lunch first. "


    The Spring Festival Gala said with a smile, "your mother is really kind!"


    After a while, she came in and sent a message, "madam, they said they would thank you face to face."


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment, "then let them in."


    "Yes."


    After a while, they helped each other in and kowtowed to her.


    Xianglan didn''t dare to say anything when he saw that chunnuan and Chunjing were there. He only said, "maidservant, thank your mother for her kindness."


    "The palace knows. You will be on duty after you return to Dingzhou in a few days. You should be more careful in Dingzhou. The palace will not treat you badly."


    "Yes."


    "Spring is warm. Take Xianglan to have a good meal first. Come back and talk to the palace when you are free in two days. "


    "Yes." Chunnuan immediately replied happily.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said to Chunjing, "the guests to see in the afternoon are not so important. Just wear two pearl flowers for me."


    Xiao soul heard the loneliness in her tone and asked carefully, "madam, but what''s unhappy in her heart?"


    She sighed, "not at all. I just feel that this person is too distinguished between dignity and inferiority, but has lost human favor!"


    Think of a time when Xianglan really took her as her sister, they also had a relationship as close as sisters. Now, one knows that he is not his own sister, and the other is expensive as a queen. I''m afraid he can''t get back to that state of intimacy


    For a time, the needles were dropped in the room. Several people listened, but none of them dared to answer. In front of the queen, who dared to talk about human feelings regardless of rank or inferiority?!


    That night, Jing Yuan sent someone to send a message that the dinner was placed in the west room of Zichen hall and asked her not to wait for him to have dinner first.


    She knew that there was a great difference in the matter of today''s Korean parliament, but she never sent her eyes to the purple hall, but waited for him to come over to tell her in the evening.


    When it was nearly time, he stepped into the inner hall of Ning''an palace with a tired face.


    Zhuo Xi went forward and took off his outer imperial clothes for him. She asked, "but is there any objection to the establishment of the cabinet?"


    "What I want to do can''t be opposed by them! But those old die hards all think they have qualifications to join the cabinet, and no one is quite. It''s really been a long time to live in dignity. Everyone is not modest in case of profitable things! The Anyuan Marquis did not dare to use it again when his father was alive, but he thought he had the merit of a dragon and granted him a life marquis. The court only gave him a big idle job, responsible for driving high cars and horses. Unexpectedly, he boasted and clamored to join the cabinet! "


    "Once the cabinet is established, it will become a place for officials. The king has set a threshold for officials with more than two orders to enter the cabinet? "


    Jing Yuan nodded, "even so, there are still 40 or 50 officials who have more than one life. In addition to the three public officials who have real jobs, most of them are idle people who enjoy the respect of the marquis. Most of them are due to the three generations of sergeants who enjoyed the merit of the dragon. Among the first group of people who sealed the shade, some lived too long and relied on the old to sell the old... "


    Zhuo Xi served Jing Yuan and cleaned her face. After washing, she sat by the bed.


    "Your original idea should be that Sangong and Jiuqing should form a cabinet, not simply based on the life level?"


    "Yes, but Jiuqing has only two lives at most, so I have decided that officials with more than two lives can join the cabinet. However, the difference between the DPRK and the DPRK today is not whether the cabinet is established or not, but how to establish it, how to distribute the civil and military forces, what powers they have, and what affairs they deal with... I don''t see it on weekdays. All the civil and military forces in the DPRK have such great talents. When they talk about their rights, they can talk like a river and talk endlessly. When they need to solve problems alone, But they are all timid and modest! "


    "This is also human nature. People in officialdom know better to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. What about the outcome of the final discussion? " Zhuo Xi helped him change his clothes and go to bed.


    "As a result, the cabinet has six cabinet ministers, divided into six departments: agriculture, military, finance, law, punishment and internal affairs; There are six cabinet members, with six posts for receiving, issuing, drafting, recording, filing and transfer. It does not set up posts for people, but selects talents according to their posts. If there are affairs beyond these six parts, they will be expanded in a small scope and temporarily included in the cabinet for discussion. " Jing Yuan lay in bed, eyes closed and tired.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised that he had derived the functions of joint meeting, seat system and Secretariat from an ordinary conference system


    "Oh, I''ve been sitting in the Dragon chair all day. My ass hurts. You can rub it for me..." he suddenly changed his role.


    She couldn''t help laughing. "Don''t jump your mind so much... Is this what the king of a country can say?"


    He turned around and put his arms around her waist to climb into the bed. "Whatever, what can''t be said in front of you?"


    She changed to a sitting position, "then lie down and I''ll rub your shoulders."


    He lay obediently on the bed.


    She massaged him.


    She suddenly thought about sun Yao and said, "Xianglan came to the palace to find me the day before yesterday. I asked her to go to sun Yao. Today, sun Yao asked her to bring me all the information about the feather gate. He said he wanted me to take over the feather door. She wanted to be imprisoned in the cold palace and asked me to find a side hospital for her to move there. "


    Jing Yuan turned over and held her in his arms. "In my opinion, that door is a good hall organization. You might as well give it to Xianglan to take over. In the future, if she finds Yu people back, they will all be placed in the feather gate, so that they can be reunited and have a meal without leaving others behind. How about? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "there are many ways to settle people. My Yan Yangsheng hall is going to open branches in various states!"


    "Yes, yes, I''m waiting for you to earn a lot of money for me and equip the army in the North!"


    "How come the war in the north is not going well?"


    "Smooth, that''s too smooth. After Wang Feng took over from Zhou, he not only quickly recovered Wuzhou and Yanzhou, but also occupied three cities in datan. After this batch of fire and thunder arrived, Wang Feng was very happy and directly won the six cities of Yunzhou. He sent it to me in a hurry yesterday, hoping to get more fire and thunder, so that he could go straight into the hinterland of datan... "Jing Yuan''s hand reached into her skirt, and he also wanted to go straight


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "you don''t want to destroy Da Tan like this?"


    "Why not?" Jing Yuan has begun to untie her pocket.


    "If the great Tan is destroyed in this way, what about the East, South and West? It will arouse their vigilance immediately! If you are attacked again and again... "


    "I''ve written back to Wang Feng and told him to take it easy. Everything needs to be prepared..." his lips accurately found her plump place and buried it in a vague tunnel.


    The next day, Zhuo Xi had an early meal. The Spring Festival Gala had come and reported that the four carriages were ready and ready to go.


    She went to Ci''an palace to pick up the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager looked at her nervously, "sorry for home, no, I haven''t dressed like this for many years. How about it? Have you seen it? " Although simple casual clothes are light, she always feels a little uncomfortable.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "mother, today we are out of the palace in micro clothes. You must remember not to leak your mouth! You are so beautiful, like a rich old lady. We called the painter out today, and we will ask him to draw you a picture of people more charming than flowers! "


    "Oh, you little mouth! The old man is half buried in the earth, and he can be more charming than Hua! "


    "Mother! Let''s set out quickly. The sun will come up in a moment, and no matter how delicate the flowers are ~ "


    "Hey, good --" the Empress Dowager walked forward happily.


    When they arrived at the palace gate, Mrs. Qin and Jing Hua were already waiting by the side door.


    Jing Hua, with a sick look on her face, gave a big gift to the Empress Dowager and said, "grandma, Wan''an. I''m sorry that Hua Er didn''t come to greet you before. She''s afraid of getting sick. Today, my aunt said that our family rarely get together. Hua''er also wants to be filial and serve her grandmother. "


    The Empress Dowager quickly helped him up and said painfully, "birch, how can you be so pale and thin! If you can''t do well, you''d better go back to Huayang palace to keep it? Don''t force... "


    Jing Hua said with a smile, "grandma, it''s rare to have this opportunity to go out of the palace. Hua''er wants to bask in the sun!"


    Jing Yuan also said with a smile, "mother, Hua''er has prepared a soft sedan, which can''t tired him. Xi''er also said that often going out and walking is conducive to his physical recovery. Let him join us. "


    Zhuo Xi has helped the empress dowager, "mother, even huan''er has come today. How can we have a family reunion without Hua''er!"


    The Empress Dowager smiled and told, "OK, OK! You should pay attention. If you feel uncomfortable, you should immediately report to the mourning family and go back to the palace! "


    "Yes." Jing Hua smiles.

 Chapter 170

    Mrs. Qin found the opportunity to come and salute. She held huan''er to the Empress Dowager for a while before she got on the bus separately.


    Zhuo Xi helped the Empress Dowager get on the carriage. Seeing Jing Yuan''s sad eyes, she gave him a proud wink and drilled into the Empress Dowager''s car.


    The Empress Dowager wanted to drive her, "Ai family wants to be quiet!"


    Zhuo Xi was ready. She reached out to the car and handed a box to the Spring Festival Gala. Zhuo Xi took it out and put it in front of the Empress Dowager. It turned out to be a mahjong.


    "Mother, my daughter-in-law has got a new interesting object. I''ll talk about this game with you carefully along the way. After a while, when we''re tired after going up the mountain, we''ll find a place to sit down and play mahjong!"


    The Empress Dowager lived in the deep palace for a long time and was extremely bored when no one visited. When she heard that there was such a funny object, she became interested. After asking whether four people were going to fight, she simply called mammy Su and heng''er from the maid''s carriage, crowded into her own car and received Zhuo Xi''s training.


    Zhuo Xi had already taught Xiao Hun and the Spring Festival Gala. Seeing the Empress Dowager''s arrangement, she was expected to return to Ci''an palace to play in the future, so she readily agreed.


    After she explained the rules, playing methods and algorithms of mahjong to the three students in front of her, they all itched to put the machines on both sides in the middle as the table and tried to play mahjong. After a few laps, several people became more excited and happy.


    When the horse and cart went to Mingxiao mountain, everyone got out of the car and waited by, but they couldn''t stop.


    Finally, Zhuo Xi pretended to be angry and advised, "mother, this is just a matter for fun. You can play at any time in the future. But today we are out for an outing to worship the Buddha. Why waste our time on these fun things? "


    The Empress Dowager quickly said with a smile, "yes, yes, we hurry to go on an outing to worship the Buddha, return to the palace early, and then fight!"


    Jing Yuan laughed outside.


    Isn''t this putting the cart before the horse? Zhuo Xi Shan got off the carriage and asked in a low voice, "did I do something bad with good intentions? What if my mother becomes addicted to playing mahjong? "


    Jing Yuan''s ear power is superhuman. He heard it all the way and his heart is itchy. He smiled and said, "teach me later. I can spend more time with my mother. As for the future, let mammy Su advise you not to fight for too long. "


    Mrs. Qin asked the nursing mother to hold heng''er and help the empress dowager, "mother, what makes you so happy?"


    The Empress Dowager smiled and pointed to Zhuo Xi, "it''s not something that this clever ghost made up! Come and learn when you are free! You can have a table with the three of us in the future! " She pointed to mother Su and heng''er.


    Mrs. Qin was interested, "that''s nice! My sister-in-law is so filial, and my daughter-in-law hasn''t done enough. If she learns, she can often come and play with you. "


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian''s carriage also arrived. They got off the carriage and took Luo Yuan and Yan Ling to salute the people. A group of people went up the mountain talking and laughing.


    After taking a few steps, Jing Hua felt weak. The eunuch behind him quickly let him sit in the soft sedan.


    He leaned in the sedan chair and looked at the smiling people in front of him with envy. He secretly regretted that he had been "ill" for too long. Although he had been poisoned before, he often remembered those unbearable facts when he woke up after relieving the poison. It was really hard to accept. So the soup is only half drunk and half wasted. There is no one in Huayang palace who can hold him down. If he is depressed and doesn''t drink, those palace maids and eunuchs can''t help him.


    There was really no one all the way up the mountain. The Jin Yuwei had already surrounded the whole Mingxiao mountain.


    Soon, the azaleas all over the mountains amazed everyone.


    The Empress Dowager and Mrs. Qin, who were in the deep palace, were completely stunned. "On weekdays, the flowers in the garden are extremely beautiful, but unexpectedly, there are such beautiful scenery in the world!"


    Jing Yuan disagreed and said with a smile, "everything in the world has its own advantages. Every season has wonderful scenery. If the mother likes it, the child will go out with her mother more in the future and see how changeable the world is! "


    The Empress Dowager was very happy. "Xi''er was right that day. If we didn''t dare to watch the four seasons, wouldn''t it be worse than ordinary people?! What''s more, there''s a family with me. I''m happy. I really have no regrets about dying! "


    Zhuo Xijiao said angrily, "mother, today is a great day for family reunion. Don''t mention what''s dead! In the future, we will get together often. "


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian didn''t know that the new queen was so close to the Empress Dowager. They were surprised at the speech. Jing Mo, in particular, has been uneasy since she asked Luo Yuan to send out the Lantian white jade pot. She doesn''t know if she has done it right. Now it seems that his dangerous move is still right.


    Not long after, they climbed halfway up the mountain to a pavilion. The women''s families were already panting, so they stopped to have a rest.


    Jing Yuan went straight up the mountain with Jing Hua and five rivers.


    Eunuchs and maids wiped and poured water, but they were also busy.


    Zhuo Xi saw Mrs. Qin and Jing Mo chatting around the old lady, so she turned her head and praised Luo Yuan, "kite, I haven''t seen it in a few days. Your skin seems to be full of white jade. You tell me from the truth, but what secret powder did you use?"


    Luo Yuan took Yanling''s arm and said with a smile, "aunt, you just look at me, can''t you see that sister Yanling''s skin can be broken?"


    Zhuo Xi took a closer look and smiled, "but from the perspective of her aunt, some light was covered. A closer look, it''s really skin like coagulated fat. You two, but what''s the secret? "


    Yan Ling didn''t know Zhuo Xi well. At the moment, she was a little embarrassed to hear her ask. She whispered, "if you go back to your aunt, we two recently got some posts sent by Lord Xiao, so we asked people to go to the Xiyan Yangsheng hall to make an appointment. The shopkeeper recommended that we do skin care for several times, which is so good... "


    Luo Yuan said again, "sister, I''m sorry to say this. Now how many noble ladies in the capital city go to the Xiyan Yangsheng hall for maintenance? I don''t know how much it will cost to get a VIP post! Last time we went, we met Mrs. Hou of Jining, Mrs. Chang''an Bo and Mrs. Chang''an Bo''s son! Which of the people who have been there doesn''t say "good?"


    Jing Mo spat aside, "how many people share a recliner in those places. I told you not to go last time. Why did you go again?"


    Luo Yuan immediately found the loophole, "mother, you haven''t been there. How do you know how many people share a recliner?"


    Jing Mo''s face was stiff, but he said with some embarrassment, "it''s just what people said..."


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "Mo''er, you really think you are old and confused. You are fragrant and have a ruddy and shiny face. I''m afraid you didn''t come until you were ordered in that health care hall?"


    Jing Mo was even more embarrassed, "Niang -"


    Jing Qian interposed, admiring very much, "eh? Why did Lord Xiao send you a post? Why didn''t she send me one? "


    Zhuo Xi immediately said angrily, "is there such a thing? She happened to take a rest today. I''ll ask her tomorrow! Sending a few posts actually favors one over the other. "


    Luo Yuan immediately heard the implication, "eh, aunt, listen to you, you asked Lord Xiao to send this post?"


    Zhuo Xi picked her eyebrows and smiled, "the shopkeeper gave me too much, so I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha!"


    The Empress Dowager was curious, "what good place is this Yan Xi Yangsheng hall? Why are you all going? "


    Zhuo Xi called chunnuan, "chunnuan, cherish Yan Yangsheng hall. Please introduce it to the big guy."


    Chunnuan immediately cleared his throat, "it''s said that this beauty care hall focuses on women''s health care and beauty, giving consideration to pregnancy and childbirth, mother and baby early education..."


    She spoke for a long time and everyone was fascinated.


    Luo Yuan and you Rongyan said, "it''s fun to cherish Yan Tang and apply foam on people''s faces. When waiting for the skin to absorb, you can still listen to plays and hear books there! If sister Yanling goes too, we can have a chat inside! "


    The Empress Dowager was also surprised. "Can you improve your sleep with medicinal diet alone? And what is the detoxification method of essential oil back opening? "


    Mrs. Qin asked another question, "do you mean that this Yangshengtang can not only regulate the body, but also cure infertility?"


    The doctor said, "the spring clinic has its own mild sleep conditioning, and everyone can have a poor sleep. Essential oil back opening is to use some essential oils to massage a large area on the back to achieve the effect of detoxification. Infertility is mostly caused by palace cold. If there are some common symptoms of palace cold, they can be conditioned and treated with medicated diet, moxa fumigation, or essential oil massage. It really cured several cases of infertility. "


    Mrs. Qin looked regretful. If she had been a few years earlier, she might have gone to recuperate. Now no matter how much conditioning is useless


    The Empress Dowager winked at Zhuo Xi.


    Chunnuan continued, "a few days ago, I heard that Mrs. Bo Shizi of Qingyuan specially sent Xie Yi to shopkeeper Ke, saying that she thanked the Yangshengtang for protecting her fetus. A few months ago, she saw Hong and invited many royal and good doctors, who said she couldn''t keep it. Later, someone recommended the Yangshengtang, and Mrs. qingyuanbo took charge and carried her over. I stayed in the hall for a whole month. Now the younger Sun Jian is healthy and has a hundred day banquet. He is very intelligent. It is said that the method of prenatal education provided by the Yangshengtang is very effective! At that time, Xiyan Yangsheng hall had not opened yet. Somehow, its reputation had already spread. "


    Luo Yuan and Yan Ling have already blushed and dare not interrupt.


    The Empress Dowager continued, "I can still protect the fetus... It seems that the sitting doctor is really a master of gold!" She deliberately winked at Zhuo Xi again.


    Zhuo Xi blushed and said, "Oh, mother! What are you looking at me for?! I, my husband and I have only been married for more than four months! "


    Besides, I met a national funeral in the first three months


    Everyone laughed.

 Chapter 171

    After browsing the beautiful scenery of the whole Mingxiao mountain, they gradually came to the Mingxiao temple on the top of the mountain.


    The abbot of the temple had heard the news for a long time. Some dignitaries came out to meet him in person, and arranged for Buddha worship, lecturing, fasting and so on.


    While lecturing, Zhuo Xi looked at an unnoticed gap and quietly asked Jing Mo, "sister Mo, can you tell me where the blue field white jade pot came from?" The opportunity was rare, so she didn''t beat around the bush.


    She didn''t hide it. She whispered, "that was the congratulatory instrument sent by imperial concubine Ru when I got married."


    Sure enough, it''s Xianru imperial concubine!


    Does she know the secret in the pot?


    Jing Mo knew what she thought, thought about it and whispered, "my husband once took them out to entertain guests. A doorman knew it and said it was the legacy of master Qihe. It was invaluable and must be obtained by Tianjia. It happened that my brother was married to his sister-in-law. As a eldest sister, I couldn''t find a suitable greeting instrument, so I thought of it. I hope my younger brothers and sisters don''t dislike it. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "I see. I like it very much. Thank you, sister Mo! "


    Jing Mo breathed a sigh of relief and knew that he had passed the pass.


    Jing Qian leaned over and said, "it sounds like my sister gave something good to my sister-in-law?"


    Zhuo Xi said quickly, "sister Mo gave me a set of cups. It''s very gratifying. I''m thanking sister Mo!" She reacted very quickly, and affectionately took Jing Qian''s arm and said with a smile, "I remember that elder sister Qian also sent me a jade screen wind of peony and Phoenix, which is placed in front of my dressing table to watch every day. I haven''t had a chance to thank sister Qian. I''ll thank you today! "


    "It''s just a good name. Where is it worth what? It''s good if you don''t dislike its coarseness. "


    Zhuo Xi quietly pulled Jing Mo over again, and the three whispered, "sister Qian Chang and sister Mo Chang, Xiao soul gave me a stack of VIP posts of Xiyan health care hall last time. As soon as I came out of the palace, there was too much movement, and secondly, I couldn''t get away. If you two are interested, I''ll ask Xiao soul to send some past to your family? We women, even if we don''t want to look good, we should also take good care of our body in order to live a long and healthy life! "


    They looked at each other and nodded imperceptibly.


    Zhuo Xi was secretly pleased.


    Jing Yuan and Jing Hua over there talked a lot about Jing Yuan''s previous trips to the mountains and rivers, and some painless topics related to personnel in Liangzhou. It''s also very pleasant to talk about. When they arrived at the temple, uncle and nephew borrowed a small courtyard with a wing room and set up a chess game in the middle of the courtyard. Wuhe took the others out.


    While playing chess, Jing Yuan slowly led the topic to the major events of governing the country and stabilizing the country.


    After hearing Zhuo Xi''s words that day, Jing Hua was so anxious that she wanted to recover overnight. At this time, after listening to Jing Yuan''s plan for the future of the country, his blood was boiling and his heart was surging.


    He was ashamed to say to Jing Yuan, "uncle Liu, my nephew was stunned. If my nephew hadn''t been too narrow and indulged in the pain and refused to come out, my nephew would be able to share one or two for uncle Liu now!"


    Jing Yuan patted him on the shoulder, "we didn''t expect before, so we made you suffer so much. Now the great picture of the kingdom of Wuliang has just been launched by us. We won''t worry about where you can contribute in the future. You can take care of your illness at ease. Your aunt and I are waiting for your good news! "


    The "good news" must refer to the treasure. Jing Hua nodded, his face swept away the decadence before, replaced by hope and excitement for the future.


    Time passed in a flash. When Wuhe came to invite them to have a vegetarian meal, they were going down.


    Smelling the speech, he didn''t refuse, so he immediately got up and used the meal room.


    When I arrived, I found that none of the women had arrived. Then send someone to call and report that the Empress Dowager is playing mahjong. She can''t let go for a moment.


    The two were aroused again and took each other to the women''s wing room to watch the war.


    Because they are all a family, and there are old and young, they don''t avoid suspicion.


    The four people on the table are empress dowager, Zhuo Xi, Jing Qian and Jing mo. Mrs. Qin was teasing huan''er, who was held in the nurse''s hand. Luo Yuan and Yan Ling stared nervously at the card behind their mother.


    After looking behind the Empress Dowager for a while, they saw the doorway. Jing Yuan occasionally reminded the Empress Dowager that Zhuo Xi opposite and Jing Qian and Jing Mo on the side protested not to fight.


    As a result, the Empress Dowager even made a self portrait, thirty-two times.


    Zhuo Xi and Wang Changji glared at Jing Yuan.


    Zhuo Xi directly called the five rivers standing outside the door to pay.


    Then the Empress Dowager ended the war with a laugh and went to one side to eat vegetarian food.


    After fasting, they took a break from the small wing room of the temple and slowly went down the mountain.


    Jing Qian and Jing Mo are very interested in the mahjong they just learned. They make an appointment to go to the palace to play mahjong with their mother.


    The Empress Dowager had asked mammy Su to hold the mahjong in her arms.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "mother, this pair of wooden mahjong is only temporarily made for fun. I''ll let someone play a pair of sapphire for you in the future. I''m sure you like it!"


    The Empress Dowager''s eyes brightened, imagined the texture of the sapphire mahjong card in her hand, nodded repeatedly, and urged her: "hurry!"


    The crowd laughed again, and then got into their carriages separately.


    Before getting on the bus, Zhuo Xi told mammy Su, "mother is tired all day today. When she returns, she will make her old man crooked. Mother Su must not let her mother waste her energy. "


    Mammy Su nodded repeatedly and let heng''er take the mahjong card to the maid''s carriage. She served the Empress Dowager herself and got into the carriage to have a rest.


    Zhuo Xi yawned and got into his carriage.


    Jing Yuan also came in.


    Jing Yuan hugged her with great joy and sighed, "if you have a wife like this, what can your husband ask for!"


    "I saved your life and gave you advice, and I don''t have to have you. How can you have such feelings when you spend a day with your mother? "


    He kissed close to her earlobe. "Today, I was very happy to see my daughter-in-law getting along so well with my family. I want to have more family... "


    Zhuo Xi patted his restless hand, closed his eyes and muttered, "I''m so tired. Let me have a rest..."


    "You don''t have to work for your husband to serve you..."


    The carriage rumbled forward. She felt him coming in and out under her and thought in distress, how to clean up the mess when she got off the bus


    When he arrived at the palace, Jing Yuan jumped out of the carriage and gave a gift to the empress dowager, "empress mother, Xi''er is asleep, so he won''t come down to see you off. Please get on the car slowly... "


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "Ai Jia understands, understands..."


    The eunuch had already cleverly parked several soft sedans in front of him, and they left separately.


    Jing Yuan returned to the carriage, carefully took Zhuo Xi out, boarded Luan''s car, and went all the way to the gate of Ning''an palace.


    When Jing Yuan took Zhuo Xi to the inner hall, Zhuo Xi immediately opened her eyes and jumped down from his arms, beating for a while, "it''s all you! Lost the dead! "


    Jing Yuan picked her up again and carried her directly to the bathroom.


    Spring view had cleverly put the hot water first and sprinkled a lot of rose petals in the bathtub.


    They were playing again in the hot water bath


    When Zhuo Xi woke up from his nap, Jing Yuan had left.


    She called the Spring Festival Gala in, dragged her aching body, dressed and dressed, and asked someone to bring chunnuan and Xianglan.


    After they saluted, they dropped their hands and said nothing.


    Zhuo Xi takes a look at the Spring Festival Gala.


    The Spring Festival Gala took all the maids indoors and withdrew.


    When the door closed, chunnuan immediately rushed forward and hugged Zhuo Xi''s arm, "madam, I knew you were the best."


    Xianglan was stunned.


    Zhuo Xi pulled her hand out with a disgusted look on her face, "why don''t you say that the palace asked for hardship?"


    Chunnuan shamelessly pasted it again, "madam, master - can''t Xiao Li say something wrong?!"


    "It''s spring now. Why can''t you change your mouth after so long?"


    Chunnuan spits out his tongue, "chunnuan knows his mistake! Don''t be angry with the warm spring... "


    "Didn''t I forgive you? If I want to be angry about these little things all day, I won''t be full of gas and don''t have to eat¡°


    Chunnuan smiled and put his face on Zhuo Xi''s arm, "thank you, madam!"


    "Why don''t you let sister Xianglan sit down?"


    Chunnuan let her go and moved two brocade machines.


    Zhuo Xi Dynasty''s Xianglan, who stayed aside, smiled, "sister, sit down first."


    Xianglan''s tears rustled down again. "Slave, can I call you sister?"


    Zhuo Xi thought of the days when she shared weal and woe when she ran Feiyu Zuoyu Yuxuan. Her eyes were also red. "Sister, today we only talk about sisterhood, don''t be too restrained."


    Xianglan wept and sat down on the brocade machine.


    Zhuo Xi first asked sun Yao, "how is she feeling now?"


    Xianglan still dared not ask Da to call herself her sister and said, "when the maid went the day before yesterday, she was looking for a belt to hang on the beam. The maidservant was frightened and silly at that time. She held her and cried for a while. Fortunately, Xiao Li, no, spring is warm. She said that the Empress Dowager was in a rage to give her aunt death on the night when the first King Hong died. But the king and the queen didn''t know what they said to the empress dowager, so they saved aunt Mingying''s life. Since the king and the queen knew the true identity of aunt Mingying and didn''t make an order to punish her, they didn''t want her life. When I heard this, I suddenly realized that I had wronged my mother before. Later, after talking to her aunt day and night, she finally gave up her ambition to die, gave all those things to her maidservant, and asked her to thank her mother, saying that the descendants of the Yu family had finally come... My maidservant understood that my mother had worked hard that day! "


    Zhuo Xi said, "yesterday, the Japanese palace explained to the king about the Yu family and was approved by the king. In the future, as long as it is within the territory of the kingdom of Wuliang, descendants of the Yu nationality can openly register their names and make a book at the government and naturalize normally. "

 Chapter 172

    Xianglan was overjoyed at the speech, got up and knelt down again, kowtowed three heads with tears, then raised his face and said with a smile, "sister, thank you, a man of Yu family. For 40 years, no one is better than a lost dog to avoid the search and pursuit of the five countries. Now he can finally work hard and happily and live in the sun! Maidservant, thank you for the only 13 remaining brothers and sisters of Daiyu family... And thank you for Aunt Mingying! Although she was imprisoned in the cold palace, she at least saved her life. If she knew about it, she would live better. "


    She nodded. "It seems that you are familiar with the affairs of the feather door. In the future, you will be in charge of the feather gate. "


    On that day, she had expressed this meaning. I don''t know whether she understood it or not. She still explained it again.


    Xianglan was ready, but he still took out a brocade box, "great kindness of your mother, I dare not forget. It''s just that Feiyu drunken Yuxuan was originally your industry. Please take it back. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "if the feather door wants to run, it still needs the support of money. What I told you before this house is still counted. Although Feiyu Zui Yuxuan can earn a few money, he is just a money making machine in the eyes of our palace. You''d better continue to manage it. If Feiyu Zui Yuxuan and Yuyi gate can support and cooperate with each other, it is not difficult to carry forward. It should soon be able to establish a complete and diversified network in the five countries. The palace also gives you a bottom line. In the future, I''m afraid there are still some things that need to be done by relying on this network. At that time, you don''t have to put off. "


    Xianglan''s heart was cold and knew that it must be her intention, so he stopped pushing, put away the things, and said, "if your mother has any orders, your servant will die."


    Chunnuan watched with tears rolling aside and said with tears: "now, blessed are not only the feather door, but also the girls who have been bullied and abandoned..."


    "It''s just to let them live on their own." Zhuo Xi turned and joked, "spring is warm, you love tears so much. Fortunately, I am on duty here in this palace. If I go to another palace, I don''t know what it will be like to be bullied! "


    Chunnuan coquettishly said, "the maidservant depends on her mother. She won''t go anywhere else!"


    Xianglan also said, "it''s her blessing that the warmth of spring can make her blue eyes!"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "the palace likes her. She naturally has the ability. Nothing else, on that day, only the girl saw that the palace was asking for hardship and pretending. It can be seen that the girl''s eyes are definitely better than her sister''s. "


    Xianglan was embarrassed. He was even more ashamed when he thought of the day before yesterday.


    Zhuo Xi stopped teasing her, and Tun said, "it''s very useful for chunnuan to stay here in this palace. If you need to report all your affairs to the palace in the future, you can contact her. This network has just begun. You have a lot to do. Ke min is very experienced in business. You might as well walk around more. Although we don''t care about the Yuyi gate, we still need to know about the layout of Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan''s branch. You can draw up a charter and report it to chunnuan regularly. "


    Xianglan responded seriously.


    Zhuo Xi told some other things, and finally asked, "do you want to see Xiao Meng?"


    Xianglan was overjoyed. "Can I see him?"


    "Naturally, he can, but he is not in the palace, but in the school. If you want to see her, it''s warm in spring, you''ll send a little eunuch to Hua Yan to say hello to Xiao Meng''s residence, and then take her. "


    Xianglan bowed and retired.


    Spring warming has been arranged since then.


    Seeing Xianglan off, Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered her Xiaobai when she just mentioned Xiao Meng. Hurriedly called chunzao to bring Xiaobai.


    These days, it is early spring that takes care of Xiaobai and gives him a comfortable nest by a garden in Ning''an palace. Xiaobai often plays in it. At the beginning, I heard the screams of palace maids and eunuchs from time to time. Later, they knew that the little white snake not only wouldn''t hurt people, but also was the flesh of the mother''s heart. They didn''t make a fuss anymore. Instead, they sometimes brought delicious food to it.


    Xiaobai used to walk around Zhuo Xi. Later, when he was in the inner hall during the day, he found that strangers often came in and out. When he saw it, he could not help making a fuss. At night, he had his own natural enemy, Jing Yuan, who would appear in the bedroom Hall, so he gradually felt that it was boring to walk around Ning''an palace, so he often went out to have fun by himself, but there was no snake shadow.


    So chunzao took a long time to find it and hold it.


    Zhuo Xi hugged it as soon as she saw it.


    Xiaobai has shed her skin twice, grown up a lot, and her color is more and more white and flawless. When Zhuo Xi stroked it, she found that its stomach was bulging. It was obvious that she had just swallowed something alive.


    Xiaobai also looks intoxicated and nests in her arms. Her eyes are heavy and she is going to sleep.


    When the Spring Festival Gala came in, I saw such a scene, one person and one snake leaning on the pillow mat, drowsy.


    She''s tangled. Do you want to report or not?


    Before she finished her entanglement, a figure in the back rushed in.


    The figure shouted, "Zhuo Xi! Zhuo Xi! " The Spring Festival Gala is very urgent, but it can''t stop the man''s footsteps.


    Zhuo Xi sat up and saw Lin Lang jump in front of him. He was dressed in jewelry, jade and silk. At a glance, he knew that it was the latest style of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan, which was very valuable. Then Xiaobai in her arms also brushed and rushed into the arms of the person opposite.


    Lin Lang laughed, "Xiaobai! Long time no see! "


    The Spring Festival Gala saw that there was no worry on Zhuo Xi''s face. He wiped a cold sweat on his forehead with his hand, made a gift and retired to make tea.


    Lin Lang took Xiaobai in his arms and sat down on the brocade machine. Chao zhuoxi said, "your family''s Xiyan Yangsheng hall is really comfortable! I wanted to finish a complete spa course before I left. However, due to an emergency, I had to leave in advance... The rest of the spa times let the manager of Keda remember for me. I''ll enjoy it when I come back next time¡°


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "are you leaving? When? "


    "I''m going to go back to Liangzhou tomorrow. Today I came in to tell you goodbye." She found that the gold medal Zhuo Xi gave her was really very useful. She couldn''t get in before, but now she can get in. She swaggered like nobody.


    Zhuo Xi leaned lazily on the imperial concubine''s chair, "but what happened to Wulin mountain?"


    Lin Lang hesitated and said, "it''s not Wulin mountain, but Cui Jiu''s side... Wang Qi wrote that he has been doing too badly recently. I want to help him."


    "Well, how are you going to help him?" Zhuo Xi became alert as soon as she heard this. Lin Lang''s lethality was so great that she had to be careful.


    Lin Lang whispered, "although I have written the formula of incendiary bomb to you, I think I should still enjoy intellectual property rights. If I try my power in Zisang country for you... Will your men object? "


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "just try the power... If there are other new weapons, I think he will not object, but will spare no effort to support!"


    Lin Lang angrily offended her, "you are too cruel. Do you have to squeeze me clean?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head, "it''s not that we''re too cruel, it''s that you''re too dangerous. If we don''t force your cards out, how can you make us rest assured? "


    Lin Lang laughed, "don''t you know all my cards? But what new weapons do you want me to build in this era when stainless steel has not yet appeared? Guns? Gun? Or a grenade? "


    "Iron cannons are not impossible." Zhuo Xi didn''t agree and said, "everything can be done. I don''t think these can be difficult for you. It depends on whether you want to do it or not!"


    Lin Lang smiled coldly. "I think if I really make it, I''m afraid I''ll die immediately!"


    "No, no, we just want your knowledge, not your life." Zhuo Xi continued to make jokes with her.


    Lin Lang put down Xiaobai in his arms, sat on the brocade chair in front of Zhuo Xi and said seriously, "Zhuo Xi, Queen, I swear, I really just go to teach those old people in Zisang country a little lesson and save Cui Jiu by the way. I''m only interested in making money and enjoying a luxurious life. You see, these days I''m in Kyoto City. In addition to doing spa, I''ve only patronized your Feiyu Zuoyu Yuxuan! I don''t want to participate in any other national affairs. Will you let your man withdraw those so-called people around me who protect me? "


    Zhuo Xi also sat up and finally came to the point, "it''s not my man who doesn''t trust you. Think about it with your head. First of all, if you want to save ordinary people, it''s just that you want to save the crown prince of a country. Secondly, you have the manufacturing method of advanced arms and weapons, which may destroy the sky and earth at any time. Last but not least, neither you nor your crown prince are from Wuliang. Based on these three points, do you think you can let you go if you change the king of another country? "


    Lin Lang touched the Impatiens on his forehead and said gnashing his teeth, "you let me enter the nationality of Wuliang country last time. Why don''t you admit it now?"


    Zhuo Xi said, "I believe you have no affection for Zisang country, but it doesn''t mean Cui Jiu has no affection for Zisang country. Once... Cui Jiu asks you to help him, will you help him? "


    Lin Lang opened his eyes wide, covered his mouth, trembled and pointed to her and asked, "you, don''t you want to...?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and gave a positive answer, "yes."


    Lin Lang had no love on his face, "it''s over, I must die..."


    "We came here for some reason. If we don''t do some meritorious activities, how can we be worthy of our school?"


    Lin Lang turned around and muttered, "when I haven''t been here, when I haven''t heard of it, when I don''t know your plan..."


    Zhuo Xi closed the door with a gesture and a figure flashed by. Hua Yan leaned on the beam on the door and looked down at her.


    Lin Lang was lying on the door, silent for a long time, turned around, rushed directly at Xiaobai, hugged his head and cried, "Xiaobai, why am I so miserable..."


    Zhuo Xi took her shoulder with a smile. "In fact, I discussed with the king and prepared to open a military school. You can collect all your knowledge into a book, and then come to the school for three years. Basically, you can go at ease..."


    Lin Lang was shocked and trembled, pointing to her. He couldn''t speak for a long time.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and took her shoulder. "If you want to make money, you will inevitably appear in public. Why don''t you give all this business to Kou Niang and pay a lot of share dividends. You will concentrate on these secret experimental research, and I will spare no effort to support you in terms of funds. I promise, as long as three years, after three years, you can decide whether to go or stay. If you calculate, Kou Niang has planned for you in the past three years. You wait for dividends, and there is a steady flow of funds within three years... Then you can take your partner around the world or sit and eat and die. It''s not cost-effective? "


    Lin Lang was silent for a moment. "What are your plans over there in Zisang country?"


    "Look at you, do you want people or money?"

 Chapter 173

    After more than ten days, the Huayang palace reported that the third prince Jing Hua had suddenly been unconscious since last night.


    Zhuo Xi, who was having a meeting with the female head of the inner palace, was surprised and hurriedly asked the little eunuch who came to report, "did you call a eunuch?"


    The little eunuch replied, "I''ve gone to invite you, but aunt He Yuan was worried about taking poor care of her, so she sent a slave to report to her mother."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "the palace knows. Go back first."


    The little eunuch should leave here.


    Zhuo Xi quickly ended the regular logistics management meeting once a month, returned to the back hall, changed clothes and accessories, and took Xiao soul to Huayang palace.


    A doctor named Wang Yuan had knelt on the ground and said tremblingly, "see the queen. Forgive me for my stupidity. I tried my best to wake up the three princes. "


    "How''s your pulse?"


    "According to Wei Chen, the pulse of his Highness the third prince is completely normal. I don''t know why he is unconscious."


    Zhuo Xi knew something, waved her hand and asked the doctor to go out and wait first.


    There are also several palace maids kneeling nearby.


    Zhuo Xi took a look and asked the leader, "are you aunt He Yuan?"


    The leading palace maid hurriedly knelt up for two steps, bowed down and replied, "the maid He Yuan has served his Highness the third prince for ten years."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you have a heart."


    "I dare not."


    "You go to the kitchen and tell me to cook some shredded chicken porridge."


    He yuan responded with an obvious happy look on his face.


    Zhuo Xi ordered wordless to wait outside. He took Xiao soul into the inner hall alone.


    Xiao soul closed the door smartly, took out her special notebook, took out a charcoal pen and stood respectfully aside.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t go to see Jing Hua and didn''t speak, but Shi Shi ran sat down at the table in the middle of the room.


    After only a moment, Jing Hua, who was originally unconscious on the bed, quickly got out of bed and knelt on the ground, "my mother, Wan An."


    Zhuo Xi chuckled. "Hua''er doesn''t have to be so polite. You called our palace in this way. Why is the picture of the cup of lamps making progress?"


    Jing Hua got up, went to the wall inside the bed and took down a long axis picture hanging at the head of the bed. A dark grid appeared on the wall. He opened the dark box and carefully took out a package of things.


    After unfolding, it turned out that the cup and the Lantian white jade pot were cut neatly. Even the thin and pointed part of the pot mouth was cut into jade rings.


    Jing Hua took out another piece of silk and unfolded a map.


    He sat on the chair, pointed to the map and said, "aunt, I cut the wine pot with a diamond, and used the wine you gave me to show the lines on the inside of the cup and pot, and painted ten small pictures and stitched them together. Originally, these ten small maps were very chaotic in the southeast and northwest. Fortunately, I had some impression of the terrain of the whole continent, which formed this map. I don''t know if there is any fallacy. "


    Zhuo Xi knows that this jigsaw puzzle has no direction. If there is a slight deviation from the front, back, left and right, it will be lost in reality, but it is not easy to put it together from this pile of fragments. Besides, I don''t know whether these two pots and four lamps are complete.


    She looked carefully. Suddenly she remembered something and explained to Xiao soul, "our Palace once received a map of the former Yudian country. Let chunnuan go and find it and give it to his Highness the third prince."


    Jing Hua was overjoyed. "If someone came to compare the map of Yudian country, the accuracy of this map can be greatly improved."


    With a map, the next step is to find treasure.


    As for the candidates, she turned and asked Xiao soul, "do you know where Jianyi is now? Any position? "


    Xiao soul thought, "he is now a deputy general under the command of General Wang Feng in the north."


    Zhuo Xi said to herself, "well, it''s estimated that he can''t leave."


    Jing Hua heard the implication and looked at her with burning eyes, "empress, you have to send someone to find it. If your nephew is not talented, please go!"


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "but you are still ill and unconscious..."


    Jing Hua was worried. "Auntie, my nephew is well, you see..." he also stood up and punched a few hands and feet, and said, "the words of coma are not to attract you?!"


    Zhuo Xi ignored it and continued to say to Xiao Hun, "Your Highness the third prince has repeated his illness and is afraid of spreading disease in the palace. From now on, he will move to another palace in Donglan county to rest and recuperate. All expenses are compared with Huayang palace. No one can disturb him. Lord Xiao, go down and draw up a decree first. When the palace returns to Ning''an palace, use the seal to promote it. "


    Xiao soul saluted and went down.


    If this Yizhi was a moment, the discerning man immediately knew that Jing Hua was afraid to be under house arrest.


    Jing Hua was more worried, "aunt..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "don''t be impatient. You should sit down first."


    Jing Hua sat down.


    "Birch, do you understand what the king said to you that day on the Xiaoshan mountain?"


    "My nephew understands. Uncle Liu said that when Grandpa Wang was alive, he always hoped that the Jing people could live in harmony and share wealth. Uncle Liu is a very filial person. He treats grandpa Wang, Xianru imperial concubine and Grandma Wang sincerely. My father did do great evil, and brother Dan also did evil, but they were all in high positions and were dazzled by power for a while. My nephew has been close to uncle Liu since he was a child. He knows that uncle Liu is open-minded and can afford to put it down. How can he not be affected by a trace of exaggeration? My aunt can rest assured that my nephew went to look for this treasure not because of his personal plot, but because he wanted to use it to fill the national treasury, not to cool the national treasury, in the hope of future events. " He explained hastily.


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, "Hua''er, in terms of family affection, my aunt, like your sixth uncle, naturally believes in you. This palace means that on that day, the king told you not to cool down. What will happen next? Are you ready to help the king? "


    That is, on the basis of state affairs, Jing Hua immediately understood the association before and after, was overjoyed, left his seat and knelt on the ground, "minister, when you are devastated, you will die."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "the palace has ordered aunt he yuan to prepare shredded chicken porridge for you. In this way, after eating shredded chicken porridge, you immediately start to go to Donglan biegong, and you haven''t seen anyone since. The Empress Dowager has her own palace to round for you. Do you understand? "


    Jing Hua nodded excitedly. How could he not understand such a way of building plank roads and crossing the Chencang in secret?


    Zhuo Xi continued, "when we see that Aunt He Yuan is loyal and clever, you ask her to bear more when she comes to Donglan other palace."


    "Yes, madam."


    "In terms of other personnel, after our house has consulted with the king, we will bring a keepsake to meet you. Go to the East Lambert palace to prepare everything and wait. "


    "Yes, madam." Jing Hua answered loudly.


    Zhuo Xi stared at him, "don''t you think people outside can''t hear?"


    Unexpectedly, Jing Hua said more loudly, "my mother used her needle to save Hua Er''s life. Hua''er thanked her mother for her kindness! "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t even have the strength to stare at him, "you know."


    After coming out, Zhuo xiluan drove directly to Ci''an palace.


    As soon as I entered the palace, I heard the sound of shuffling cards.


    When mammy Su saw her coming, she hurried over to salute her, "the Queen''s mother, Jin''an."


    Zhuo Xi said gently, "no gift. Why did the mother touch it early in the morning? " Since Xiao Shan came back, although the Empress Dowager often played cards in Ci''an palace, she basically took a nap in the afternoon. Generally, someone came to greet her in the morning, but she didn''t play cards. It''s not noon yet. The game has been set up?


    Mammy Su said bitterly, "I don''t know. Since you sent someone to send this jade mahjong yesterday, the Empress Dowager couldn''t put it down. She asked her maidservant to invite two Wang Changji and Mrs. Qin to fight today. He said he wanted to have a good addiction. "


    With that, Zhuo Xi had arrived at the inner hall of Ci''an palace, and saw four people playing mahjong around a table. The Empress Dowager looked a little bad, and specially asked heng''er to report the card face to her behind her.


    Zhuo Xi saluted the empress dowager, and the others saluted her again.


    The Empress Dowager sat motionless on the card table and said with a smile, "Xi''er, are you here? Your sapphire mahjong is really calm. They came all morning and were full of praise. "


    Zhuo Xi reluctantly stood behind the Empress Dowager and pinched her shoulder. "Empress mother, this mahjong is just a thing to kill time. You should be careful. If you keep hitting like this, your shoulders will be very sore. Be careful, you can''t sleep well at night! "


    The Empress Dowager beat out a second cake and said with a smile, "I know! Mother Su talks about it every afternoon. AI family plays for a while every afternoon. It''s not special today. With a new card, naturally I want to feel it at the first time! The texture of your green jade brand is very good. AI family likes it very much! "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "if your mother likes it."


    Jing Mo touched one and threw out one by one. At this time, he said, "queen, your mahjong playing method is really interesting. In just a few days, the women in the whole Kyoto honor circle learned the playing method of mahjong. It''s said that Mrs. chang''anbo had a fight with several other ladies the night before yesterday! Chang''an Bo also severely scolded Mrs. Chang''an Bo, saying that she was ineffective and difficult to set an example! Mrs. Chang''an was so angry that she ran back to her mother''s house yesterday... "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "is there such a thing?"


    Jing Qian also said, "isn''t it? It is said that when Mrs. qingyuanbo went to comfort her, she encouraged her to let Chang''an Bo study too. After that, their parents in law can set an example together! "


    The people laughed, and the Empress Dowager asked curiously, "did Mrs. Chang''an agree? Did you really teach Chang''an Bo? "


    Jing Qian said, "I don''t know what the result is, but I heard that Qingyuan Bo has called several old men at home to play cards with him every day!"


    The crowd laughed again.


    Zhuo Xi was curious, "how did this card come out?"


    "Seventy thousand touch! Sixty thousand. " Jing Mo touched one and said with a smile, "since the mother took Mrs. qingyuanbo to play cards for the first time on that day, after she went back, she quickly imitated a set of mahjong and widely taught you good ladies. Don''t you see that more and more ladies have come to greet their mother this afternoon? " So they specially adjusted the time of greeting in the palace to the afternoon in order to play mahjong with their mother?

 Chapter 174

    Qin Taifu said angrily, "queen, mother, today, she has won 60 gold! Over the past ten days, she has made a lot of money every day! "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "I can''t stand the mourners. I have good card skills and good luck! Didn''t you just give your huan''er a big gold collar yesterday? If you have more money, your reward will naturally be more! "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned.


    She looked sensitively at mammy Su, who dropped her eyes.


    She immediately said, "empress mother, today I brought a newly made flower tea. I''ll go and make you a pot."


    The Empress Dowager said, "it''s just a small matter. Let mammy Su soak it."


    "This is a new tea brewing method. I went to the teahouse to demonstrate to mammy Su, and she understood."


    "Well, go and come back quickly! Wait, 30000, eat! " The Empress Dowager put down two cards and played out one card in her hand.


    Zhuo Xi walked into the teahouse. Mammy Su followed behind her, looking ashamed.


    "How many things did my mother do these days?"


    Mother Su whispered, "it''s not a big deal. Mrs. Chang''an once came to ask the Empress Dowager for a favor to let her only half-year-old Shisun take the post of Jin Yuwei. Mrs. Qingyuan has a niece from her mother''s family. She wants to marry and has a crush on the legitimate grandson of Changyang hou... "


    Zhuo Xi''s face was heavy. She completely ignored the strong desire of those ladies to flatter and donate money to the Empress Dowager!


    Mother Su quickly knelt down and said, "empress, when these ladies say that these family leaders are short, they are all on the card table when the Empress Dowager is in high spirits, and it''s not easy for slaves to interrupt and remind. Fortunately, it''s almost harmless. But the maidservant also noticed, so the Empress Dowager said last night to find some people to play cards. The maidservant didn''t dare to invite others, so she had to invite two wangchangji and Mrs. Qin... "


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath, "Mammy, these things are indeed beyond your scope of responsibility. When the mother is happy, her natural vigilance decreases. If you have a chance, you should remind your mother more. "


    "Yes. The maidservant will pay attention. "


    "The valve cannot be opened and the wind cannot be long. In the future, if she wants to play cards, she''d better get together with her family, even if you learn to play with her. Those ladies are not allowed to fight in the palace. Just say that the palace is worried that it will disturb the mother''s rest! "


    "Yes, madam." Mother Su responded obediently and breathed out a breath in her heart.


    Served the empress dowager, drank some flower tea, reported Jing Hua to the empress dowager, and finally told her not to play for too long. Zhuo Xi returned to Ning''an palace.


    She didn''t expect that the Empress Dowager just nodded her head to say she knew about Jing Hua''s move to donglanbie palace for rest, but she didn''t know these few words, which set off a storm in Jing Mo and Jing Qian''s heart.


    Qin Taifu was moved, but Jing Hua neither came from her, nor had any contact with her. Although he felt a little strange after hearing this, he couldn''t remember where the blame was, so he soon put it behind him.


    Jing Mo and Jing Qian are different. Similarly, as children of the heavenly family, they have been watching coldly for so long. They have always been wise to protect themselves and try not to involve themselves in the storm of competing for reserves. However, there is no custom in this dynasty that the Lord cannot enter the court as an official. His husband and son-in-law all have the titles of three lives in the court. They naturally need to master and understand these directions in the court.


    Not long after Jing Yuan ascended the throne, the two sons of the former king have grown into capable sons. The older one died unexpectedly and the younger one moved to a remote palace. How can people with a heart not have other guesses?


    Can it be said that after the bloody storm of the past few months, the court of the Wuliang country has not calmed down yet?


    Of course, Zhuo Xi doesn''t know what these people think. At noon, she took the lunch prepared by the dining room to the study.


    Just after setting lunch in dongci room, Jing Yuan came in with anger.


    Chunnuan went out after a few salutes.


    Zhuo Xi also paid a salute to Yingying, "see the king."


    Jing Yuan came forward without saying a word and hugged her. He held her very hard, as if to embed her in his body.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "Jing Yuan, what''s the matter?"


    The cabinet has been formed smoothly, and all the people he wants have joined the cabinet smoothly. The cabinet has been running quite orderly these days. The number of memorials that need to be sent to him has decreased sharply. Shouldn''t we breathe a sigh of relief? Why are you so angry?


    "Those old die hards, ignore them!" He hugged her and said stiffly.


    "Who are they?" She put her hand around his waist.


    "A bunch of old bigots! All day long, I don''t say anything about the dead, but I think about something that has nothing to do with them! "


    Zhuo Xi lowered her eyelids. Is she finally coming?


    I asked her, "it has nothing to do with your hand, but it has nothing to do with his back?"


    She keenly felt that he was stiff under her hand for a moment, and couldn''t help laughing bitterly in her heart, but he didn''t want to tell her?


    Sure enough, his voice came from his ear, "you don''t know those dirty things! I''ll take care of it! "


    "But what concubine can help?" She didn''t give up and asked again.


    "Don''t worry, I''ll deal with it soon!" He let go of her, kissed her gently on the cheek, took her hand and said, "I''m so hungry, let''s eat quickly!"


    "Yes." She follows good advice.


    While eating, the two picked up their family.


    She told him about Jing Hua¡° Hua''er is also smart. She neatly cuts open the teapot with the diamond. Even if there is no grain, she can directly splice it back as it is and know at a glance. Now that the picture is available, I also want to take this opportunity to let him be called avoiding other palaces. In fact, he is looking for treasures. As for the accompanying candidates, you have to choose some good players and good conduct. "


    He frowned, "although the war in the North consumes a lot of silver, it is not at the point where Jing Hua needs to drag the sick body to find the treasure immediately. Is it too hasty? "


    This is almost the first time they have had a disagreement in so long. Zhuo Xi suspected that she had heard wrong, or that he had just missed what she said, so she explained again, "Jing Hua is well. He was also very eager to try. It was a map drawn and spelled by him, so he pushed the boat along the river and asked him to move to donglanbie palace under the pretext of recovering from illness... It can not only hide people''s ears and eyes, but also solve the urgent need of the silver treasury as soon as possible... "


    Jing Yuan interrupted her, "after all, Hua''er is the blood of brother Tai Wang. How many pairs of eyes have been staring at him in recent months! Xi''er, this is really reckless... "In the final analysis, he is also afraid to bear the charge of" maiming his nephew "before the bones of the former king are cold


    Zhuo Xi thought he was always safe, but he never deserved his "reckless" evaluation. Although he knew intellectually that he might have been angry before, he had a fire in his heart because he didn''t be honest with her in time. When he heard this, he couldn''t control it any longer and stood up, "if you think I''m reckless, you can send someone to chase him back immediately! Maybe he hasn''t got out of the palace yet! Do you think I''m too busy? Isn''t it easy for me? I''ll just go! "


    She slammed her chopsticks on the table, kicked off the stool under her feet and went out of the door. Even the door was brought with great force.


    Jing Yuan was startled. Although he saw her bow her eyebrows and Shun her eyes in front of him from the beginning, he always felt that the concept of superiority and inferiority in her heart was very weak. When he remembered to respect you, he said to the marquis. If he couldn''t remember, he made it impolite with his fingers. It happens that he also likes to have such a feeling of taking into account his identity at an appropriate time, but there is no sense of distance. He has seen many of her emotional expressions: respectful, pretending to be respectful, angry, happy, shy, generous... But he has never seen her lose such a temper.


    Did you say something wrong?


    Say she''s "reckless"?


    Without asking him, she sent the three princes to the unknown dangerous place to find the treasure that didn''t know whether it existed or not. Can''t she say anything rashly?


    Does she know what he will face in the court?


    Does she know how much wind and rain he has blocked for her?


    I have never said an important word. Today, I just said a reckless word. How could she lose such a temper?


    Looking at the figure of her leaving, he suddenly felt like a knife.


    Zhuo Xi was furious all the way.


    How long has she been like this? Grievance, anger, suffocation and unwillingness seem to accumulate negative emotions for decades, and you need to find an outlet to vent them in an instant. At that moment, regardless of his ninety-five respect and the majesty of his king, he had only his anger to erupt and vent. He thinks he''s the only one under pressure? I respect my mother-in-law, take care of my nephew, and deal with a lot of messy trifles in the back palace. She lived her life completely without herself, and what she had to do ran aground and aground.


    Is this the day she will spend her whole life in the future?


    The doubt of a long time ago suddenly came to my mind.


    She really needs an explanation.


    She looked around and found that everyone around her was trembling and running with her. Only Xiao soul looked calm.


    It''s a brave artist.


    She suddenly stopped and asked Xiao soul, "do you know where the wind garden is? Now take me there. "


    Xiao soul hesitated for a moment, "the slave and maid roughly know a direction, but they don''t know how to go."


    Speechless hurried forward and whispered, "I know how to go. My mother, please come with me."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and continued to rage in the direction of speechless.


    Xiao soul and chunnuan looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.


    They had just heard a bang when they saw the queen come out angrily and shut the door of the dining room. I don''t know what the two masters said in it, which made the queen so angry. When the master has such extreme emotions, they are often the slaves who suffer. Although the queen has always been lenient to others, and there has never been a precedent for anger, no one can guarantee that she will not suffer from fish in the pond when the master is angry.


    At this moment, seeing that the queen had a place to go, she was a little relieved.

 Chapter 175

    Soon, Zhuo Xi walked to the door of the wind garden under the silent leadership.


    Speechless came forward and pushed the door. The door didn''t move. He knocked on the door again, but there was no response.


    Zhuo Xi sneered, told Wu Yan the way Jing Yuan knocked on the door last time, and asked him to draw gourds as usual.


    Sure enough, the door opened, and the old eunuch named Chu Bo stood by the door with his hands down.


    Zhuo Xi stepped in, but Chu Bo stopped the others outside the door.


    She turned back and nodded to Xiao Hun, motioned that she was ok, and then walked in in their worried eyes.


    Chu Bo led her to a shelter. Half a man''s tall grass could be seen in the distance. I don''t know what plant it was.


    He bowed respectfully to her, "see the queen. I don''t know why she came here?"


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was full of fire. Without beating around the Bush, she stared at the old man who looked over 60 and asked, "tell me, who am I?" She didn''t call herself "the palace".


    He smiled, "who is the mother herself? How can I ask the old slave?"


    "I know you know what I''m talking about. I can also tell you that you have only one chance to be honest with me. If I walk out of this wind garden today, you will never see me again. Are you sure your answer is the same as just now? " Zhuo Xi was more angry and said her thoughts in one breath.


    Chu Bo carefully looked at her look and was silent for a moment. Finally, he said, "please come with the old slave."


    Zhuo Xi followed his footsteps to shuttle through the garden, and finally got to the place where a warm shed was located.


    She remembered that when she first entered the wind garden by mistake, she told him that she could use thin silk as a warm shed to cultivate herbs that were not very cold resistant.


    It is now may, and it is reasonable that the greenhouses can be removed, but those greenhouses are still preserved, and only a large gap has been opened near the ground.


    She bent down and was surprised to find that it was full of herbs such as Huangdu, Tougu grass, ghost feather arrow, Huangjing and so on.


    She couldn''t help but drill in, strolled in a piece of grass fragrance and medicine fragrance, took a deep breath, as if her anger gradually melted into the green herb fragrance, and the burning viscera immediately subsided, and every pore was appropriate


    Also, this feeling is very familiar


    After a long time, she came out slowly.


    Chubo had been waiting patiently on the earth, smiling and watching her come to the front.


    She took a breath and asked, "I want to come to Jingyuan. I told you about my memory loss. I can''t remember my past, although it doesn''t affect my future. But now I really want to know who I used to be? Where am I from? " In fact, the most important thing is, has this paragraph ever had some connection with Jing Yuan in the past?


    Chu Bo didn''t answer her immediately. He just led her to the depths of the medicine garden and said, "my mother is still the same as when I was a child. No matter how sad things are, as long as I smell the medicine, I will recover immediately."


    Zhuo Xi repeated in surprise, "when I was a child?" Although she thought that chubo should know the life experience of her body, she didn''t expect that her childhood was related to him. Is that what I''m going to say?


    Empress Chu didn''t speak any more, but walked straight ahead.


    He came to a hut and stood abruptly. Trembling, he pushed the heavy wooden door open and made a "please" gesture, "madam, this is the house where you lived when you were a child."


    She was surprised again. Did the original owner of this body grow up in this wind garden?


    She walked into the cabin and a musty smell came to her nose.


    The things in the room are very simple, a bed, a table, a chair, a suitcase and a dressing table.


    Every platform facing upward is a thin layer of ash.


    In the middle of the room is a table, with pots and lamps on a plate, which shows that there are few guests here. There is a roll of opened bamboo slips on the table, which is covered with dust. I don''t know what it says. Against the wall is a single bed, small and short, square, the quilt is folded neatly, and a stone pillow is stuffed into the innermost part of the wall. There is a basket hanging on the wall. There are several hay plants in it.


    The comb on the dresser was placed casually, and several pearl flowers were scattered in front of a rusty copper mirror. There are no bottles and cans filled in front of the modern women''s dressing table, but there is still a jar in the corner near the wall. She felt that all this looked familiar. She couldn''t help but stretch out her hand to open the lid of the jar. There was a shallow layer of oil in it, emitting a faint fragrance.


    She knew it was a bottle of Gardenia hair oil almost without smelling it. She also knew that there were three peony flowers and six honeysuckle flowers hanging on the wall. She stole it from the medicine garden and hung it on the wall for decoration.


    Are these memories left by the original owner?


    She watched carefully. Suddenly, she came to a cage by the wall, opened it, stretched out her hand in a corner and took out something wrapped in a brocade handkerchief.


    When she opened the brocade handkerchief, it turned out to be a jade bone token and a stone.


    No wonder I felt familiar and strange when I saw the jade bone token for the first time


    The stone seems to be nothing special, cyan, and the edges and corners are rounded


    An Zi ordered the Lord


    Descendants of Yu nationality


    Her head roared. If she was also a descendant of Yu nationality... Why was she a descendant of Yu nationality?!


    An old voice sounded behind him, "Xi''er, do you remember?"


    He called her Xi''er!


    There was a terrible light in her eyes and she said word by word, "I, to the bottom, who is it?"


    When Jing Yuan returned to Ning''an palace, he closed the door for the first time.


    The Spring Festival Gala knelt in front of the closed bedroom door, shivered and saluted him, and then shivered and said, "empress, empress said, she is not comfortable these days. Please go back to Zichen hall to have a rest for a few days."


    The veins on his forehead will burst out.


    He is the king of a country. He is locked out of the door?!


    He remembered the figure of her leaving at noon. Was she still angry about it? He has no experience in dealing with such things at all, and he can''t help feeling powerless at the bottom of his heart


    The five rivers on one side wept silently. After handling the affairs of the king for a day, they were already exhausted. Who could have thought that they were closed when they were close to rest. He served two terms of the emperor and fully understood the concept of the emperor''s wrath. Although this master is much easier to serve than the previous master, no one can bear the anger of the son of heaven and the thousands of miles of corpses.


    He also completely didn''t expect that someone could be brave enough to shut out the king in such a violent way


    What now?


    What does it mean for the king to stand motionless at the door with a blue face?


    He looked very cold and quickly reprimanded the big maid called the Spring Festival Gala, "bold slave! The Queen''s mother is not feeling well. She doesn''t go to ask for a doctor. She still locks her in the door. Do you want to die? "


    The body of the Spring Festival Gala on the ground shook, but she also said, "my mother said she didn''t need to ask a doctor, and she also said that no one is allowed to go in..."


    "Bastard! Can the king be anyone?! Get out of the way! Open the door... "


    Spring warm, the whole person fell lower, and the spring scenery kneeling behind shrank more, trying to reduce their sense of existence.


    After a standoff for a while, Wuhe was about to come forward and kick people.


    Jing Yuan spoke at this time, with a strong sense of fatigue, "forget it, don''t embarrass them. Five rivers, I''ll go back to Ziyang palace. "


    "Yes." The five rivers should be here, shouting, "king, drive back to Ziyang Palace -"


    It was not until their footsteps were far away that they slowly picked up their paralyzed bodies on the ground and helped each other up. They found that their clothes were wet with sweat.


    Chunnuan trembled and said, "spring, sister of the Spring Festival Gala, is the king really gone?" No wrath of the son of heaven, no corpse?


    The Spring Festival Gala also grasped her hand, shook her teeth and said, "yes, it should be to go, let''s go..."


    "What''s wrong with her today? What happened? "


    The Spring Festival Gala regained some composure and said, "you''ve always been kind to your mother. Why don''t we send you to ask?"


    Spring warms and shrinks for a while, "my mother is angry..."


    The next day, the news came out of the Queen''s Ning''an palace that she had caught the cold and needed to close the door to thank her guests.


    The empress dowager, Mrs. Qin, Wang Changji, and the wives of various governments... Sent condolences and supplements one after another. Spring is warm. I''m busy just collecting gifts and registering them.


    When Wuhe sent the news to the study, Jing Yuan, who was waving ink and writing wild grass to calm his mood, ordered the imperial medical department to take good care of it, while writing the cursive script more crazy.


    Ziran came in.


    The five rivers took a look at the son ran adult who had been following the king and retreated sadly.


    "Found it?" Jing Yuan didn''t look at him and asked faintly.


    Zi Ran arched his hands and said, "back to the master, after going out from Zichen palace yesterday afternoon, my mother went straight to the wind garden and stayed in the wind garden for a long time. Chubo said, "she knows everything."


    "That''s all? Where did she go after she came out of the wind garden? "


    "Then he went back to Ning''an palace and stayed closed. Xiao Hun said that several schedules originally scheduled in the afternoon had been cancelled. Not only yesterday''s and today''s, but also the next few days, have been temporarily cancelled. "


    No one for days? Jing Yuan was surprised and asked, "she knows and knows that the truth is no big deal. The question is, why didn''t she see the widow? And rest for so many days? "


    His pen paused, and immediately a large dot of ink appeared on the paper. He thought carefully that the secret hidden in the wind garden was nothing more than - she was a descendant of Yu nationality, she grew up in the wind garden since childhood, and her familiarity and understanding of herbs came from chubo''s teaching - but what does it matter? He didn''t think that a little "recklessness" at noon yesterday could make her so angry.


    "Are you really ill?" He became nervous. In his impression, his Xi''er seldom had such a negative mood.


    Zi Ran said again, "Xiao soul said he didn''t see Ning''an palace going to the imperial medical department to get medicine."


    "What does Hua Yan say?"


    "Hua Yan said that she drove her out after she returned to the inner hall. She watched outside. She kept her door closed. During this period, only the little girl with warm spring sent water and food several times. "


    He took a deep breath and ordered, "let Hua Yan and Xiao soul continue to stare. If there is anything different, report it immediately. "


    Zi Ran arched his hands and said, "yes!"

 Chapter 176

    Zhuo Xi seemed to have a long dream.


    In her dream, she seemed to return to the hall paved with smooth marble floor. On the top was a crystal lamp worth tens of millions, and countless dignitaries danced on the dance floor.


    The object she wants to start is the fiery figure in the middle of the dance floor. The slender and soft waist is less than Yingying''s grip in the man''s palm, and the soft and jade like face seems to emit a glimmer under the Yingying light.


    She hid in the crowd, holding the miniature pistol under the tray in her hand, and heard the hint of her partner - she was about to enter the last beat, and her Waltz would end in a beautiful posture.


    At that moment, her face tilted outward and looked at the crowd, which burst into warm applause.


    She knew she should pull the trigger and let the bullet hit her perfect forehead accurately.


    But at that moment she hesitated.


    A smiling face stood between her and her.


    She caught up without hesitation.


    Then everything became blurred.


    Only that figure, in the spotlight, shuttled through the dark crowd.


    She followed him, left the crowd, left the noise, and somehow came to a bright maple forest. In the red leaves all over the sky, she couldn''t help but throw herself into the familiar arms that looked like another generation, and the warmth spread all over her body. As usual, those bloody storms, loneliness and insomnia were all far away from her


    But soon, the figure became ambiguous again. She followed all the way. No matter how long she stretched her five fingers, she couldn''t touch the corners of her lover''s clothes


    In the dream, she has fear, joy, disappointment and sweetness


    The big dream will wake up. She doesn''t know where she is. In the confusion, someone fed her water and someone fed her. She always ate a little, then continued to sleep, and continued to hide back in that beautiful and lingering dream


    It seems that someone is calling her, a distant voice, but the name is very strange. Who is "Niang Niang" calling? She is clearly called Zhuo Xi. Yes, in his dream, he will gently call her "Xi''er". The object of that voice must not be her


    Then there seemed to be a low, frightened voice, "what should I do? Isn''t your mother a nightmare? I''d better ask Dr. Chen! "


    Another panicked voice seemed to say, "is it hot?"


    Then there was a cold wet feeling on his head and face, and something was pressing under his nostrils, as if a needle had pierced his body.


    She was very uncomfortable. She spoiled the figure beside her. She curled her body tightly into his arms... She forgot that she wanted to see him clearly before


    Finally one day, she heard someone calling in her ear, "Xi''er, Xi''er..."


    She saw the figure calling in front. She ran forward and hugged him firmly. She remembered her wish. Her fingertips stroked his facial features, beautiful Phoenix eyes, thick eyebrows, tall nose and thin lips... She smiled. It turned out that he was so handsome... She felt that he kissed his fingertips with his lips, warm and soft... Without any language, she could feel his treasure


    But why can''t she see it?


    She wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids were like heavy lead. She couldn''t open them with all her strength.


    But the touch of reality made her afraid. She didn''t want to come back here. There were many things she didn''t want to face


    She subconsciously turned back and went back to look for the gorgeous dream


    She rubbed his face again and whispered, "who are you? Who are you... "A distant name appeared in her heart," wolf? "


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­


    So confused, I do not know how long, she finally slowly opened her eyes.


    The curtain top of a Golden Phoenix carved silk and green yarn came into view, and both sides of the curtain yarn on the left were hung high.


    She struggled to get up, but suddenly heard a cry, "mother, mother! You''re awake! "


    Then the voice turned up decibels, "sister of the Spring Festival Gala! The mother is awake! Spring Festival Gala sister! The empress is awake! "


    Then a pillow was put under her, and she got up with both hands and leaned against the big pillow.


    Chunnuan knelt down in front of the bed, looked at Zhuo Xi with tearful eyes, cried and said, "empress, empress, you finally woke up..."


    "Water..." Zhuo Xi didn''t have extra strength to talk to her, so she spit out her requirements directly. How long did you sleep? Why are you thirsty and hungry?


    "Yes, the maidservant should die." She wiped her tears and got up to pour water.


    The Spring Festival Gala came in with a group of people staggering. Qi knelt down on the ground and knocked the floor with his head. Everyone cried with joy, "God bless you, madam, you finally wake up!"


    She gently waved her hand, "all go down. If there is porridge, bring a bowl to the palace."


    Chunjing went out with tears. Chunnuan came up to serve her, took the water poured by chunnuan and fed it to her mouth, "what do you think, madam?"


    She took a sip of water, took a breath and said, "I just don''t have much strength. It makes you worry."


    Chunnuan said, "Doctor Chen was on duty in Ning''an palace day and night. I heard that his mother woke up and knelt outside the door."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "let Doctor Chen come in, write a prescription and go back to rest early."


    After putting down the curtain in the Spring Festival Gala, he went to the door and shouted, "Xuan, Doctor Chen."


    Doctor Chen walked in quickly with a feeling of relief on his face. He and his colleagues in the imperial medical department have been walking on thin ice every day for more than half a month. They are worried about his mother''s disease. Now I heard that I finally woke up, how can I not put down most of my heart?


    Chen Taiyi hurriedly invited Ann for her, put her veil on Zhuo Xi''s wrist outside the tent and began to take a pulse.


    After a while, he breathed out a breath, and his expression was really relieved. "Madam, you have no serious problem, but you are weak. I can prescribe some prescriptions for nourishing and stillbirth."


    There was a silence in the account.


    Doctor Chen didn''t know how to react. He recalled what he had just said. Was there anything wrong?


    Just as the sweat on his forehead seeped out, he heard the queen finally speak, with a trace of hoarseness in her voice, "how many months?"


    He resisted the urge to wipe his sweat, bowed his head and replied, "it will only be a month, and Weichen was diagnosed a few days ago."


    "How long did you sleep in this palace?"


    He looked at the Spring Festival Gala and saw that the other party had no expression, so he told the truth, "madam, you have been sleeping for 17 days."


    There was another silence in the tent. After a while, I heard another sentence from the tent, "I know. Please write a prescription and go back to have a rest as soon as possible. You''ve worked hard these days. "


    "I dare not. I''ll leave. " He made a quick decision, did not dare to stay more, and hurried to leave.


    Spring brought porridge early. Seeing that the curtains were closed, several people were frightened. They didn''t know when it happened. They were in a dilemma for a moment and didn''t know what to do.


    The Spring Festival Gala hung up the curtain again in silence, but chunnuan immediately rushed to the bed. She was frightened to find Zhuo Xi''s closed eyes and tears from the corners of her eyes. She immediately burst into tears, "what''s the matter with you, madam?" Why does the empress sleep so long and finally wake up, or is she in a bad mood? Even when I heard that I was pregnant, my mood was even worse?


    The Spring Festival Gala turned out and called the little maid to fetch water.


    Zhuo Xi opened her eyes and feebly raised her hand to caress chunnuan''s hand. "The palace is all right. Didn''t Doctor Chen say? The palace just slept for a long time, was malnourished and weak. " She blinked and squeezed out a smile. "Don''t you wait for the palace to get up and eat?"


    The quick little maid in waiting happened to bring hot water in. The Spring Festival Gala and chunnuan waited and cleaned Zhuo Xi''s face without asking a word.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t say a word, so they cleaned her face, took a deep breath, got out of bed, put on her clothes and sat down at the small table.


    Spring early put the porridge in front of her.


    Zhuo Xi picked up the jade spoon and ate it slowly.


    After eating a small bowl of porridge, she put down her spoon. Chunnuan immediately handed over mouthwash water and basin, and the Spring Festival Gala handed over a handkerchief.


    After a short rest, she felt that she had recovered some strength, so she immediately got up and went to the bathroom to take a good bath.


    When she took a bath, she suddenly lost herself for a while and subconsciously stroked her abdomen. Where did she really have a little life? Why is it not joy but fear that welcomes this little life?


    At the beginning of Shenshi, the Empress Dowager came.


    Zhuo Xi wanted to get up to meet her. The Empress Dowager quickly raised her hand to stop her, "Xi''er, you lie down and worry about your family for so long. I heard that you finally woke up. It''s all right, Doctor Chen. It''s all right. Let''s put your heart down. How do you feel? But what else is wrong? "


    Mrs. Qin followed her with a baby. Only then did she have the Kung Fu to meet the queen.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "after my mother, my concubine has somehow been unable to wake up in her dream. Now it''s OK to wake up. It''s just that I don''t eat for a long time and I''m weak. Mother, please rest assured! "


    The Empress Dowager looked at her face carefully and finally breathed out a sigh, but she asked with a worried face, "look, you''re so good now. I can only put down half my heart. But why are you sleeping like this? Is there a saying? Can you still sleep in the future? "


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "Empress mother, Xi''er hasn''t figured it out yet."


    The Empress Dowager sank her face and simply pointed out, "but there is something wrong with your meal and tea?" She said, glancing around at the warm spring trees standing next to them. They were so awed by their majestic momentum that they knelt down and dared not move.


    Zhuo Xi quickly comforted her, "empress mother, it shouldn''t be. I''ve been in a coma for more than ten days. I''m thankful that several people in the Spring Festival Gala serve me wholeheartedly. Otherwise, where else is my life? Have you forgotten that Xier has Xiaobai? Casual poisons can''t enter Ning''an palace. Which one without eyes dare to send poisonous things to Ning''an palace? "

 Chapter 177

    The Empress Dowager''s face eased a little. Mrs. Qin took Xiao huan''er''s hand and came forward, "empress dowager, I heard that people who are pregnant will be sleepy. Did the Queen''s mother sleep for so many days?" Huan''er twisted around in her hand.


    The Empress Dowager said, "Xi''er, Doctor Chen said you are pregnant. This nutrition needs to be well replenished. AI''s family sent a good blood swallow. Do you remember to eat more. Look at you. It''s only been more than half a month and you''ve lost a lot of weight! "


    Zhuo Xi saw that she was going to start wiping her tears again and hurriedly crossed the topic, "is this huan''er? Can walk? "


    Seeing that he had been twisting his body, Mrs. Qin had to let go of her hand and smiled happily, "isn''t it? Now I''m not a quiet master. After I can walk by myself, I think about running out all day. I often took him to play in my mother''s back palace. I just heard someone report that you woke up, and I came together. However, I came in a hurry and couldn''t prepare some herbal supplements. Send someone to send it back after my body returns. "


    Zhuo Xi replied politely, "Mrs. Qin has a heart. Don''t be so polite. "


    The Empress Dowager said, "it should be. Now Jing Yuan is not in the palace and you are ill. We old people should take more care of you. These days, the female officials of the inner government reported some affairs to the Ci''an palace. The mourners picked out some things they couldn''t wait to deal with first. Although you are awake, don''t work too hard these days. If there is something difficult to decide, the old bone of mourning can still support it. "


    Zhuo Xi''s heart jumped when she heard that Jing Yuan was not in the palace? She said gratefully, "thank you, mother. She worked hard."


    The Empress Dowager said angrily, "we are a family. If you say this, you will see the outside."


    Mrs. Qin said with a smile, "in the past ten days, my mother has patronized to deal with the affairs of the inner palace. She doesn''t even play mahjong."


    The Empress Dowager also said with a smile, "now Xi''er wakes up, but there is hope for tomorrow''s card game..."


    The crowd laughed, but suddenly heard a maid shouting, "Your Highness the seven princes, be careful!"


    Mrs. Qin rushed nervously to the place where the sound came from. It turned out that huan''er wanted to climb up the window.


    Mrs. Qin picked it up, took two steps back and exclaimed, "snake! There are snakes! "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "Mrs. Qin, are you making a fuss? That''s Xiaobai! It''s Xier''s baby! " Although the Empress Dowager seldom goes out of Ci''an palace, she also hears other people talk to her, and once saw Xiaobai in the small garden.


    Zhuo Xi also said with a smile, "don''t be afraid, Mrs. Qin. Xiaobai never bites."


    Then she waved to Xiaobai, "Xiaobai, come here quickly."


    Xiaobai climbed in from the window and soon slipped into Zhuo Xi''s arms.


    Mrs. Qin was relieved and put Jing Huan, who had been twisting in her arms, on the ground.


    Jing Huan ran to Zhuo Xi''s bed and gently stroked Xiaobai with his fleshy little hand.


    Xiaobai originally pretended to sleep with his eyes closed. When he woke up, he saw that there was a man who was not afraid of death, and he seemed to want to play with it, so he climbed up with that little hand.


    Jing Huan was still small and couldn''t bear its weight. He sat down on the ground. He was very happy to see that he climbed onto himself. He giggled and twisted the snake into different shapes.


    The others laughed when they saw it.


    Zhuo Xi asked with a smile, "Mrs. Qin, is huan''er''s ear better now? What did the imperial Medical Department say? "


    Mrs. Qin showed a worried look on her face, "what Dr. Chen means is to recuperate slowly. The prescription is drunk every day. Huan''er would spit it out when he tasted the medicine. It takes me more than half a day to feed him the medicine every day. He is not completely deaf, but he should speak louder to him. "


    Zhuo Xi said: "it''s good to hear. I''m afraid it''s a congenital problem. I can only adjust it slowly."


    Mrs. Qin couldn''t help looking at Jing Huan playing with Xiao Bai. Leng Bu Ding saw that Xiao Bai was about to bite the back of Jing Huan''s hand when she opened her mouth. She couldn''t help shouting "ah!"


    Everyone looked along her line of sight. Xiaobai opened his mouth and stayed less than half an inch away from the back of Jing Huan''s hand. The scarlet letter gently licked his tender skin.


    Zhuo Xi sat up alertly and called chunnuan, "go and get the silver needle in the palace."


    Mrs. Qin hurried over and reached out to catch Xiaobai''s body.


    "Zhuo Xi, stop!"


    Mrs. Qin was frightened and begged, "empress, Xiaobai is an animal after all, or..."


    Zhuo Xi snorted coldly, "although it is an animal, it is the Savior of the palace. If you don''t want to save your huan''er, try it. "


    Mrs. Qin''s tears filled her eyelashes. She looked at Jing Huan tremblingly and shouted, "huan''er, is huan''er okay?" While looking at the empress dowager, the Empress Dowager stretched out a hand to stop her.


    Jing Huan didn''t know why, so he gently stroked Xiaobai''s head with his other hand and put his head close to Xiaobai, which made Mrs. Qin tremble.


    Chunnuan soon took the silver needle.


    Zhuo Xi waved to Jing Huan and whispered, "huan''er, come here a little."


    Jing Huan understood her gesture and slowly moved his ass over.


    Zhuo Xi winked at chunnuan, who carried Jing Huan and Xiaobai to Zhuo Xi''s bed.


    "Xiaobai, come down first."


    Xiaobai obediently swam to her inner side. Jing Huan smiled and wanted to climb over Zhuo Xi and catch it.


    Zhuo Xi took out a silver needle, solemnly grabbed Jing Huan''s small hand and quickly pricked it.


    Jing Huan was in pain and burst into tears.


    Zhuo Xi held his little finger tightly, squeezed out a drop of blood and wiped it on the small plate handed over by chunnuan. Then she let him go and motioned Mrs. Qin to come up and take him away.


    Mrs. Qin hurriedly hugged him and coaxed him.


    Zhuo Xi handed the plate to Xiaobai''s mouth.


    Xiaobai licked the blood and nodded to Zhuo Xi.


    The Empress Dowager had already stayed and asked, "Xi''er, but what''s the problem with huan''er''s blood?"


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes. "He was poisoned."


    Mrs. Qin sat down on the ground with her little baby in her arms when she heard the speech. "Empress, empress, you have to save huan''er."


    The Empress Dowager returned to her senses and immediately pointed with her hand, "come! Catch this bitch! "


    Immediately came in. Two little eunuchs wanted to catch the nanny standing behind. The nanny was pale and fell on her knees with a plop. "Empress dowager, it wasn''t a slave! The maidservant came only last month! "


    The Empress Dowager swept Mrs. Qin and asked in a deep voice, "what''s the matter?"


    Mrs. Qin made up her mind, "go back to the Empress Dowager. The nanny who had been waiting on huan''er said that she was infected with the wind and cold. She was afraid of giving huan''er ill, so she asked to leave and go back to her hometown..."


    The Empress Dowager also issued an order to mother Su, "mother Su, pass on the order of mourning, immediately block Min''an palace, and all the palace women eunuchs of Min''an palace will be taken to the Department of military punishment for thorough investigation; In addition, send someone to check the whereabouts of the nurse. Even if you dig three feet, you should dig her out! "


    Mother Su should come and give a gift and send a message.


    The Empress Dowager said to Mrs. Qin, "I''m afraid huan''er in Min''an palace can''t go back. Let huan''er stay in Ci''an palace these days. The mourners looked after him themselves. The imperial doctors of the imperial medical department are regulating huan''er''s disease, which means that the poison is not so easy to find out. Xi''er woke up today. She''ll be fine in two days. Please show huan''er again. "


    Mrs. Qin knelt down and said, "it''s all up to the Empress Dowager."


    Zhuo Xi said, "this poison is not easy to identify. Let Xiaobai go to Min''an palace. It is very sensitive to poisons. "


    The Empress Dowager was inspired by the speech. "It''s so good. Find the poison source as soon as possible and let the AI family feel at ease as soon as possible!"


    "Spring is warm, so you take Xiaobai to Min''an palace."


    The Empress Dowager thought for a moment and said, "since Xiao huan''er is going to stay in Ci''an palace for a few days, he will also take Xiao Bai with mother Su to Ci''an palace."


    Zhuo Xi looked at Xiaobai lying down beside him and patted his head. "Xiaobai is good. Go with sister chunnuan and come back to prepare delicious food for you!"


    The little white head stood up and took it away with a smile.


    Mrs. Qin was shocked. "Just now, my concubine really wronged it!"


    Zhuo Xi patted the edge of the bed and said, "don''t be polite, Mrs. Qin. Take huan''er to the palace. The palace will give him a pulse to see what''s wrong. However, even Doctor Chen didn''t find the poison. I''m afraid the palace can''t diagnose it. "


    "Yes." Mrs. Qin hurried forward with Jing Huan still sobbing.


    Zhuo Xi had been diagnosed for a long time and didn''t know why. He was afraid that the pulse of children was different from that of adults, so he had to say awkwardly, "Mrs. Qin, this palace is also clumsy. I can''t see what poison huan''er was poisoned. But with Xiaobai, Mrs. Qin doesn''t have to worry. Huan''er was poisoned, but now he has nothing abnormal except that his ear power is not as good as ordinary people. I''m afraid this poison is a chronic poison and won''t attack in a moment. As long as you find the source of the poison, you can naturally find an antidote. "


    The Empress Dowager also said, "it''s a shame. Let''s find out early. If it hadn''t happened today, huan''er wouldn''t know what would happen in the future! "


    Mrs. Qin looked ashamed and murmured, "my concubine is reckless."


    The Empress Dowager said, "Xi''er is tired because of the noise today. It''s late. I''ll go back to Ci''an Palace first."


    Mrs. Qin also got up and said goodbye.


    Zhuo Xi got up to deliver it, and was pressed on the bed by the Empress Dowager. "You are still weak. Lie down and take care of yourself. After a few days, I''ll go to Ci''an palace to play cards with the mourners! "


    Zhuo Xi had to smile and see them out.


    Xiao soul came in and stood by.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her and said nothing. She just lay down and closed her eyes to sleep.


    She got up and washed the porridge for about half an hour.


    This time, she ate more.


    She rinsed her mouth, wiped the corners of her mouth, and said coldly, "Xiao soul."


    Xiao soul has been waiting nearby, beating drums in his heart. Hearing the speech, he quickly knelt down in front of her. In a hurry, he called out his previous claim, "subordinates are here."

 Chapter 178

    Zhuo Xi sneered and said, "sure enough, at such a juncture, the master in your heart still points to him automatically."


    Xiao soul''s heart was cold and intuitively retorted, "lower officials dare not."


    Zhuo Xi continued: "the palace knows that it can''t stop you from passing messages to him, but you can''t stop me from closing Ning''an palace. Therefore, there are two ways in front of you: first, as before, you are the close secretary of the palace, but there will be more spring warmth around you; Second, you hand over all your work to chunnuan, return to him and continue to be his loyal subordinate. "


    Xiao soul can''t understand that everything is fine. Why does this happen? Did something happen before that she didn''t know? She thought for a while and decided to tell the truth, "since it involves the position adjustment of the lower officer, the lower officer has a request: the lower officer can''t understand her mother''s idea. Can you give the lower officer an explanation?"


    Zhuo Xi sneered and said, "you are really loyal to the Lord. Is it the explanation you want or the explanation he wants?"


    Xiao soul''s face turned red in an instant. She knelt on the ground and straightened her chest and back. "Madam, although I haven''t been following you for a long time, my madam''s style of behavior and working methods often make me feel frustrated. You and the king were originally husband and wife. The lower officer thought it was not important to be loyal to whom. Being loyal to you was equal to being loyal to the queen. Being loyal to the king was equal to being loyal to you. If the empress has to let the lower official make a choice in such an inseparable loyalty, the lower official believes that there is a basis to make judgment and choice. That''s why I asked my mother to give me an explanation. If the empress doesn''t give me a reason to choose, I really have no choice. "


    Zhuo Xi was speechless for a moment. Originally, in her mind, Xiao soul and Hua Yan were naturally loyal to one of them when they were dissolved in water. Now they have differences. She thinks that Xiao soul and Hua Yan will not hesitate to choose Jingyuan. After all, they are sent by him to protect themselves. Now, when asked by Xiao soul, he is happy again. At least Xiao soul still thinks about it and knows that there needs to be a reason to make a choice. Does this mean that in Xiao soul''s mind, his weight is at least no less than Jing Yuan


    She sighed, "Xiao soul, get up first. When this house owes you an explanation, this house will not force you to make a choice. "


    Xiao soul stood up with a sigh of relief.


    Zhuo Xi called in the Spring Festival Gala and chunnuan again, "the order will go down. From now on, Ning''an palace will close the door and refuse the king; Not only the king''s people, but also all the news about the king, are not allowed to enter Ning''an palace. "


    The Spring Festival Gala and chunnuan looked at each other and saw deep doubts and puzzles in each other''s eyes.


    Zhuo Xi squinted at them. "Why, when Ben Gong woke up, no one listened to what he said?"


    The Spring Festival Gala several immediately knelt on the ground, "maidservant dare not. I will obey your orders. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at them and knew it was difficult for them.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "spring is warm. You are in charge of some major events outside the palace. From today on, you will follow Lord Xiao and learn the working methods you should master as a close secretary of the palace. In the future, you two will undertake the relevant work inside and outside the palace, or take care of each other. "


    Spring warm face has a happy look, "yes!"


    From this day on, the whole Ning''an palace fell into terrible silence.


    All palace maids and eunuchs have to tiptoe even when walking. They try to hold back what they need to communicate before they start talking outside the door. In fact, what they need to communicate inside the door is almost whispered at the volume of whisper.


    Everyone knew that the queen was very depressed after she woke up from a deep sleep. Everyone secretly guessed whether there was any irreconcilable contradiction between the queen and the king


    Zhuo Xi didn''t know anything about these thoughts, but she didn''t have the strength to pay attention to other people''s feelings.


    If time is a pig killing knife, life is a pig with strong self-healing ability. No matter how many knives time delays on him, he can heal the wound as quickly as possible.


    From the next day, she began to work hard in the past despite the dissuasion of the Spring Festival Gala. Handle internal affairs according to Xiao soul''s schedule every day, and sometimes play mahjong with the Empress Dowager. Under the joint screening of Xiao soul and chunnuan, those internal palace affairs really eliminated all affairs related to the king. Even if there were several affairs related to the king, they were fully handled under the authorization of Zhuo Xi and did not dare to report to Zhuo Xi. When holding the regular meeting of logistics work, the female administrators who can report their work in front of her will not mention it. They are all very flirtatious in the inner palace. They never mention anything related to the king


    However, several close maids of the Spring Festival Gala serving in Ning''an palace were anxious in their hearts. Not to mention that the queen has just recovered from a serious illness, she doesn''t eat much and can''t keep up with nutrition. Moreover, she still has dragon seeds in her stomach. She works hard day and night and can''t rest. It is obviously very harmful to her body and baby. Chunzao, who was on duty at night, secretly reported to the Spring Festival Gala that her mother tossed and turned for several nights and couldn''t sleep. Even chunnuan found that the queen ordered someone to tie people''s rope, cut it into a length of about half a Zhang, and jumped quickly on tiptoe. Chunnuan jumped up and cried and grabbed the rope on the spot


    Everyone secretly prayed that the king would come back early and end the cold and strange era of Ning''an palace


    --------


    The king, who was remembered, looked at the letter paper in his hand in a distant earth city called Lanjian in Zisang country.


    Zi Ran carefully looked at the master''s look, wondering whether to keep silent or say something.


    He knew all the contents of the letter, because the letter was not written to the Lord, but to himself by Xiao soul. He didn''t understand why the accident happened.


    "Go and call the left and right generals, the chief and Deputy generals of vehicles and horses, the counselors, etc. I want to call them to deploy the next battle plan!" Jing Yuan said almost word by word.


    Zi Ran made a military salute and walked out of the inner room.


    The five rivers that had been waiting outside jumped up and asked pleasantly, "Lord Zi Ran, what''s the king''s order?"


    In fact, Zi Ran has always disdained this big prison who quickly stood firm in front of the new king, because he not only changed to the new Lord immediately after the death of the former king, but also acted extremely flattering and bullying. He often saw that the servants had false suggestions and acted arbitrarily, so he often beat and scolded, or even killed with a stick. However, it was later found that the eunuchs in the inner palace just wanted to find a place to live and make a life. Although the imperial subordinates were more severe, they all started from safeguarding the interests of the king. Moreover, after more than half a month of accompanying him, he deeply felt that although the five rivers were servile, their martial arts were unfathomable and loyal to the king. Although he doesn''t know where this strange loyalty comes from


    In a few moments, Zi Ran had turned his mind and conveyed the king''s order to the five rivers word by word.


    Five rivers bowed down and thanked, restrained his look, answered the voice seriously, and went down to convey the order.


    Jing Hua was the first to arrive.


    He saw Ziran in a daze outside. He keenly felt that his heart was heavy and his heart was more cautious, but he joked, "brother Ziran is missing Lord Xiao in Kyoto?"


    The son suddenly blushed and pretended to be angry, "Lord Xiao is a close female official of the Queen''s mother. Is it what the lower official can think of! Don''t ruin Lord Xiao''s reputation! "


    Jing Hua laughed, approached him and whispered, "brother Ziran is shouting people''s names in his drunken dream, and no one says you have ruined her reputation!"


    A few brothers woke up in the morning. They were so embarrassed that they were not happy. After many threats and inducements, a little brother said he was drunk and shouted to marry Lord Xiao


    Jing Hua then whispered, "I heard the king and the queen mentioned before that I wanted to marry several older female officials around the queen..." female officials are of grade, so it''s natural to marry.


    Zi Ran''s face turned white again and asked nervously, "have you ever heard of their favorite candidate?"


    Jing Hua shook her head and suggested to him, "if you have a heart, you might as well pass a word to the queen. Who do they marry for? Besides, Lord Zi Ran is young and promising and has a bright future... "


    However, Zi Ran said with a bitter smile, "in this situation, I don''t know when the king and the queen will be reconciled..."


    Jing Hua coughed and looked embarrassed. First, the king and the queen were kings, and second, they were elders. He, as a subordinate and nephew, was really hard to talk about their private affairs.


    Zi Ran also understood that he had said inappropriate words, but still for the sake of everyone''s welfare, he hardened his head and whispered, "the two masters are unhappy, and the whole palace dare not go out. You also know in your heart what the emperor''s personal expedition is about. Why don''t you find a way to find out the reason and solve the knot for the masters as soon as possible? "


    Jing Hua thought about it and whispered, "I''m afraid the knot is still with the queen. Only Lord Xiao can see one or two...... "


    Before he finished, several other generals came in in in armor.


    As soon as several tall and powerful people stood on the outer hall, the space immediately became narrow.


    Everyone saw the ceremony.


    Those who came here were all the brave and good fighters of Bai Huijun.


    Wang Han, the former commander of the seventh Battalion of Baihui army, and Bai Zhong, the commander of the tenth battalion, served as the left and right generals of the southern expedition army respectively. The seventh Battalion served Chang Chen Hang and the tenth battalion served Chang Zhang Yun as deputy generals. Jing Hua is still a junior, but because he mastered the important secrets of the march route and its destination, he also served as a riding general. Li Liaoze, deputy commander of the tenth battalion, is a counselor. Zi Ran wanted to go back to Kyoto with Jing Yuan, so he didn''t take a post in the army. He only took the record of walking in the king''s study.


    The five rivers then crossed in, saw that everyone was here, saluted them one by one, and then walked into the inner room and invited Jingyuan out.


    Jing Yuan looked around deeply and asked directly, "how is the southern expedition going these days?"


    Bai Zhong came forward and threw a fist. "Report to the king, the southern expedition army has come since the beginning of August. The king''s morale has soared, and he has been helped by strange people. He took Lanjian City three days ago and rested for two days. Now it''s even more powerful. The king has orders and can start at any time!"


    Jing Yuan''s face was as loose as a pine, and he pondered a little, "I know that this war is strange. You must have guessed how much in your heart in the past month. I will give you an answer today. "


    A month ago, Zhao Jialing, who had been neutral and peaceful between Zisang and Wuliang, suddenly broke out. A Zisang merchant openly raised the purchase price of grain in the market to induce farmers to sell all grain to the merchant. Don''t cool the merchant''s anger. However, come to the door and its theory. A few words disagreed, the two families even fought, and some greedy people openly fished in troubled waters and moved grain home. Other people who came late were jealous. The people who moved grain home in front of them even ignored their face and came forward to rob the grain when they saw it


    Then Zhao Jialing sent his soldiers. Unexpectedly, Zisang army came out behind Zisang merchant


    Then people died. The dead people were actually a chief envoy from Liangzhou who came to zhaojialing to visit relatives... What''s more outrageous is that when the Zisang army came out, people and horses stepped on the chief envoy who was holding a rice bag and refused to let go... So that when the family went to collect the corpse, they needed to use a shovel to put the product of the mixture of flesh and blood and soil into the coffin bit by bit


    Zhao Jialing people are angry


    Liangzhou people are angry


    Don''t be angry... Then Jing Yuan immediately ordered Liangzhou to send troops to suppress... This suppression went all the way south to the hinterland of Zisang

 Chapter 179

    Several generals looked very excited and saw a trace of excitement in each other''s eyes.


    Zi Ran and Jing Hua looked at each other in surprise. They knew that the king was going to make a quick decision.


    "Do you know why the king of Zisang and the king of Wuliang share a surname?"


    In a moment of silence, Zhang Liao said nervously, "there are rumors that Jingluo, the founding monarch of Zisang state, and Emperor Wu were cousins of the same origin..."


    Jing Yuan nodded, "this rumor is true. Jing Luo and his grandfather are cousins of the same clan. When the king''s palace of Yudian was invaded by the leaders of the five kingdoms who were still general Da Sima at that time, only five of the six seals of the son of heaven were found in the palace, and the remaining one was still missing. The five person tunnel once agreed that each person would get a seal, delimit the river and rule without aggression. Recently, I got a report that Jingluo of Zisang state secretly found the remaining sixth seal more than ten years ago, which was hidden in Junyao City, the capital of Zisang state, 600 miles away. Now Zisang state is the third son of Jing Luo, and Jing Cheng is in power. According to the zhaojialing line report in the border city, Jing Yu has been actively preparing for the war since six years ago. Two months ago, he gathered his troops to attack tengju. I speculate that Jing Cheng tried to annex the other four countries with the second seal of the emperor, so as to reunite the sixth seal of the emperor and restore the establishment of the Daewoo Dynasty. Its wolf ambition has to be punished! "


    Wang Zhong, you mean to kill the king, and I mean to get out of the city


    If the purpose is to get the second seal of the emperor, there will be more meaning behind it. There will be more things to plan in the future


    Jing Yuan said in a deep voice, "I know that the war started in a hurry, but Zisang was trapped in the bitter battle of tengju in the northwest, and the Northeast was at a time when the troops were empty. Unexpectedly, he sent troops to explore my reality on the pretext of Zhao Jialing''s grain grab. I didn''t do it and beat him by surprise. In addition, the artifact recipe drawing provided by the Queen''s mother has just been made. I came to supervise the army in person to explore the reality of Zisang country and the divine power of this artifact. For more than a month, Sergeant Wuliang has gone all the way south, and the power of artifact has been verified. Today, ten new magic cannons were sent to Lanjian city. I think this battle should be decided quickly! "


    Liang Feiyang was soaked in blood on the battlefield. Hearing this, he half knelt down and saluted, "this battle will be won! God''s power on the king! "


    Others also reacted from the shock, kneeling down the military salute like Wang Zhong, holding a boxing in their left chest, "this battle is bound to win! God''s power on the king! "


    Jing Yuan smiled and said, "since we have reached a consensus, please come forward and we will study the downward military route..."


    However, Zi Ran looked worried and couldn''t help but come forward and said, "Your Majesty, we went all the way south and East. We didn''t even encounter effective resistance to breaking the twelve purple mulberry cities. Although it took an unexpected opportunity, Junyao city is the capital of Zisang. Will there be a heavy ambush all the way east? " He had never fought such an easy battle before. The experience of this month completely overturned the battlefield impression he had seen in the past. Under the bombardment of the cannons, several key passes became a pile of waste soil in an instant. Under the slogan of "surrender soldiers without killing", they occupied a small border city without wasting their efforts. Hundreds of thousands of sergeants from the southern border almost went south and East at the speed of one city a day. There was almost no loss of sergeants. However, for each city occupied, 2000 people had to be left to garrison. Therefore, there were less than 80000 left in Lanjian city at this time. But the king just said that there are ten new guns


    In a month, even if Zisang has more troops gathered in the northwest and wants to transfer the army to the south, it should be near Lanjian city in a month.


    Jing Yuan was confident, "it doesn''t matter. This trip to the East, the pioneer camp and the shenpao camp advance at the same time. In case of an ambush, blow it twice first!"


    A few days ago, when he reached wansha City, the first defense line north of Zisang again, the fierce battle several years ago seemed to be still in sight. Seeing wansha city again after many years, he found that he had a sense of urgency to annihilate it. Without saying a word, he set up the magic gun and bombed recklessly. The imagined strong wansha City surrendered in less than two hours. However, the garrison general of wansha city even pretended to surrender. When yingjingyuan and others entered the city to catch turtles in a jar, he caught the flaw in time and killed the general. One hundred thousand troops encircled the rebels and finally wiped out 20000 enemies. Under the condition of complete distrust, public opinion was boiling and buried the 6000 soldiers alive... Wansha city was completely owned by him, and officials were arranged to take over military and political affairs, becoming a solid supply city for the one hundred thousand troops.


    Since then, the cities have been smashed and quickly disintegrated under the powerful attack of divine artillery.


    All Liangzhou sergeants were very happy. Many of them had participated in the fierce battle of wansha city a few years ago, and they still retained a sense of awe for wansha city to some extent. This sense of awe was quickly dispelled in front of the fact that the city was broken in two hours


    The others laughed, "Lord Ziran, now Zisang country is terrified of the southern expedition. Where else have the courage to ambush us!? How can you grow the ambition of others and destroy your prestige? "


    Ha ha ha


    Suddenly a voice came sharply, "report -"


    A small soldier stumbled in, "report - King, Zisang army is coming to the city! Attacking the city at Dongwu gate! " Although the voice was nervous, there was no panic.


    Jing Yuan raised his head and laughed, "no one is worried about the power of artifact. Jing Hua, call Jiang Yuan of shenpao camp. Let''s witness this historic scene!"


    Zi Ran immediately stepped out of the door and conveyed Jing Yuan''s order to Wuhe.


    Wuhe immediately sent someone to call Jiang Yuan to prepare for war on the wall of Dongwu city.


    Jing Yuan and his party also mounted a fast horse and immediately ran to Dongwu city gate.


    On the way, they heard a report that Jiang Yuan had arrived at the wall of Dongwu city and was ready for battle. They only waited for the Lord''s order.


    Jing Yuan and others looked satisfied and soon rushed to the wall.


    Jiang Yuan was really looking forward to it. When he saw Jingyuan coming, he hurried down to salute.


    Jing Yuan raised his hand, "no need to be polite." He went straight up the wall and watched the war.


    Zi Ran followed behind, his heart surging.


    Jiang Yuan has reported the war situation to the Lord, "Zisang army began to attack the city half an hour ago. All the siege weapons include stone catapults, rush cars, ladders, etc. A total of 30000 people are expected outside the city. The last general has ordered people to be on full alert and has just defeated the first wave of enemies trying to climb the wall! "


    Jing Yuan nodded and didn''t want to take over the command. He said in a deep voice, "Jiang Yuan, you are the commander of shenpao camp and the first time shenpao camp fought the battle of guarding the city. The battle is under your full command. I watched the war with other generals! "


    Jiang Yuan was stunned and then rejoiced, "the last general will live up to the king''s trust!"


    Soon, the sound of incendiary bomb explosion was heard outside the city wall, mixed with the scream of human beings, and the sound of bombing was heard in the distance


    But in a quarter of an hour, the enemy outside the city retreated like a tide. But when I retreated, I was still badly injured


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    On the endless hill path in the distance, a fine horse is galloping.


    The man on the horse was pale. Hearing the huge earthquake behind him, his heart and soul were split.


    No one knows the lethality of that weapon better than her


    Only three days, less than three days to Junyao City, that person may disappear into the long river of history with this advanced weapon


    In front of us are endless paths, no trees, no people, only poor ridge land and rolling hills.


    As she ran wildly, she thought about what had happened in the past month... Her chest was very depressed.


    Yes, this person is Lin Lang.


    After she signed the unequal treaty with Zhuo Xi in Ning''an palace that day, she was taken to a mine in an unknown mountain.


    Fortunately, the miners and smelters in the mine are skilled, and the iron products are of high quality. At first glance, it is known that Zhuo Xi has transformed them.


    Originally, she was angry and deliberately procrastinated. But when she saw the delicious Beijing roast duck made by the cook, she immediately improved her satisfaction here. Besides, there are skilled auxiliary personnel.


    The first one, Ma San, was very attentive to her and had high technical attainments. She could almost understand the drawings she drew at a glance. Eight out of ten and nine out of ten things met her requirements and were slightly inaccurate. After her adjustment and comparison, eight and nine were inseparable from ten.


    So soon, in only five days, they built the first iron gun of this era. Immediately, someone sent the fire mines and shells she had provided before. After the test, the cannon was sent out perfectly after several adjustments.


    At that time, she did not expect that this artifact should be taken by the black man and barbarian of Jingyuan to attack Zisang, because at that time, she knew that the battlefield of Beiliang was in datan in the north.


    Then the productivity of the mine was much higher than her imagination. All parts were built in a few days according to the flow of the production line. After several assembly and adjustment, ten iron guns were built again


    Until the iron gun was transported out again, she didn''t expect that Jing Yuan had gone all the way south and approached Lanjian city with her first strong gun.


    But that day, she finally walked out of the hole hidden in the mountain, stretched her waist and breathed out. Ma San, who sent her out behind him, took a horse to her and handed her a package, "Miss Lin, here is the Beijing roast duck wrapped by Bo Jing for you to eat on the road."


    "Thank you." Her eyes lit up. Although the Beijing roast duck was attractive, it still couldn''t stop her from going south to save Cui Jiu.


    ¡±"The girl wants to go back to Liangzhou?"


    "Exactly." Lin Lang nodded. To get to Zisang, he must pass through Liangzhou. He hoped that Cui Jiu''s fool would insist on her to avenge him.


    Ma Sanduo said, "as long as you follow the direction of the shaft track, you can get to Liangzhou."


    She said, "you mean, these iron guns have been transported to the south?"


    Ma San was stunned. Jiang Yuan, who came to learn the use of iron guns from her, didn''t tell her?


    However, don''t be cool to attack the purple mulberry country has been known all over the country. She can know as long as she goes out of the verdant mountain, but she won''t hide any more. "It should be to the south."


    Lin Lang''s face changed greatly.


    To tell the truth, even if they attacked Zisang country, she wouldn''t blink.


    But the cruel fact is that Cui Jiu, who is in her heart, is now imprisoned in Junyao City, the capital of Zisang state.


    What if the cannon doesn''t have eyes and blows him up?


    So she galloped all the way towards Junyao city.


    All the way through the city, there are all dark traces caused by lethal weapons. At a glance, we know that this advanced weapon has an overwhelming advantage. When passing Lanjian City, I heard that Zisang had transferred a large number of people and horses originally gathered in the north to the south to resist the enemy. She was relieved, not because Zisang sent troops to fight, but because she knew she could reach Junyao city before the old fox Jingyuan.

 Chapter 180

    On this day, Zhuo Xi heard an amazing news.


    Xiao soul came in and said, "Lin''an Bo''s house and Pingyang Bo''s house exchanged Geng stickers. Pingyang Bo''s wife wants to make an appointment to thank you."


    Zhuo Xi''s lazy look showed a trace of surprise, "Lin''an Bo''s house wants to marry Pingyang Bo''s house?" Although they have the intention to match them, they haven''t sent out the news yet. Why did they catch up first?


    Xiao Hun said, "it is said that Mrs. qingyuanbo disclosed the news that the Wu family has a daughter to Mrs. lin''anbo. After several considerations, Mrs. lin''anbo finally decided to marry Miss Wu on behalf of her son. Mrs. Pingyang was so happy that she immediately exchanged Geng stickers without waiting for the two sides to close the eight characters. "


    It turned out that the last time I learned about Lin''an Bo''s son and Yuanyang Bo''s second son from Mrs. Qingyuan, I revealed this meaning.


    Xiao soul said with a smile, "I heard that Yuanyang Bo''s house is also arranging the meeting between his second son and Miss Wu. It''s estimated that it can be done."


    It would be nice if they could all succeed. It''s not worth beating Liu last time and no longer staring at Jing Hua.


    Zhuo Xi was in a better mood and nodded, "there''s time later. You can arrange it. By the way, please invite old lady Pingyang into the palace. I haven''t seen my grandmother in the palace for a long time. "


    "Yes."


    Zhuo Xi looked at Xiao soul at the bottom, graceful and graceful, and suddenly remembered her marriage with Zi Ran, "Xiao soul, you and Zi Ran..."


    After opening his head, Xiao soul knelt down in panic, "queen, there is no private letter to the king!"


    Zhuo Xi said with a bitter smile, "get up first. This palace and the king have really embarrassed you. This palace does not want to ask whether you send a letter to the King through Zi Ran. The palace just wants to know what you think between you and Ziran? "


    Xiao soul stood up, his cheeks flushed, and his voice was like a fine mosquito, "Xiaguan, Xiaguan..."


    A voice came in, "mother, maidservant knows what she thinks!" Chunnuan said excitedly and brought health tea to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "eh? You know? Tell me! "


    Chunnuan nodded hard, "I once heard Lord Xiao shouting the name of Lord Ziran in his dream!"


    Xiao soul''s face became more red and went to catch chunnuan. "You little hoof dare to talk nonsense in front of your mother. See if I don''t tear your mouth!"


    Chunnuan giggled and said, "ask chunzao if they also heard it? Originally, you were alone in a room. When you suffered from the cold, several slaves and maidservants took turns to look after you. Regardless of credit, there is always hard work. How are you? But to tell the truth, you will tear the mouth of your servant. If you are ill next time, see who dares to take care of you. "


    "Your mouth is getting worse..."


    Zhuo Xi looked at the excitement and couldn''t help laughing on her lips.


    Watching the Spring Festival Gala not far away, he breathed out and quickly brought the bird''s nest hanging on the side¡° Madam, do you have a better appetite? This bowl of blood swallow was sent by the Empress Dowager. Drink it while it''s hot. "


    Zhuo Xi reluctantly took it over. All her reactions came out these days. She had to vomit when she smelled the smell of fragrance. Only this tasteless bird''s nest can make her stomach satisfied.


    Sometimes when she thinks of the baby in her stomach, she will have a tangled and difficult mood, and sometimes she will have a bad thought. Since chunnuan took her rope skipping last time, she was also shocked. These outsiders who had nothing to do with him were so nervous about it. How could she, as its mother, do such a thing to hurt it? What''s more, if you say wrong, it''s your own fault. It has nothing to do with it


    At the moment, seeing that the Spring Festival Gala sent the bird''s nest under the banner of the empress dowager, she had to eat the whole bowl of bird''s nest in their expectant eyes. Often in such a time, she will be surprised that the arrival of the baby is expected by how many people?


    There was no news from Jingyuan. I don''t know where he has gone or whether he has come back... Since she issued the seal order, everyone was silent about the king''s whereabouts. You can not pay attention or inquire, but what will the baby do in the future? Want to be separated from her father like her?


    This is a dead end. I don''t know how to solve it.


    Thinking like this, the deeper the guilt in her heart


    Spring came in early and held a letter in his hand, "madam, it''s a letter from the Crown Princess of tengju state."


    Zhuo Xi was really overjoyed when she heard this. She took the letter and opened the tarpaulin. There was a short message written in silk.


    The letter said that her due date was next month, but in the past two months, the war between tengju state and Zisang state was tight, and the original situation was still tense. Fortunately, with the help of senior brother, she went deep into the hinterland of Zisang state from the southeast and solved the difficulties on the tengju border. Thank you, senior brother yunyun.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. For more than a month, Jing Yuan disappeared. It turned out that it was Yujia''s personal expedition?!


    But why?! Even if you want to test the power of Lin Lang''s new cannon, you don''t need to see it yourself!


    She suddenly remembered that she was unhappy with him because of Jing Hua, which was the only quarrel with him in her impression. But unexpectedly, I found such an unbearable truth because of this little thing


    Is Jing Yuan''s imperial expedition related to Jing Hua?


    But as soon as she thought of the truth, bitter feelings came to her mind - related or irrelevant, do she have to worry about it again? Is it still useful to worry again? This is a doomed marriage


    It''s hard for this baby... I don''t know what will happen in the future


    Chunnuan stopped fighting for a long time. Seeing the Queen''s face from joy to shock to bitterness, they didn''t understand what had happened.


    Chunnuan asked smartly, "queen, you said, if you marry Lord Xiao and Lord Ziran..."


    Zhuo Xi came back and thought about the possibility seriously. He hesitated again, "but I don''t know what Ziran thinks? Xiao soul is a female official after all. It''s better to let Zi Ran propose marriage by herself... "


    The Spring Festival Gala secretly praised the warmth and cleverness of the Spring Festival. On the one hand, he also came forward to give ideas, "madam, I have a proposal. You might as well let out the news that you want to marry Lord Xiao first. If Lord Ziran wants to, he will be worried. "


    "That''s a good idea." Zhuo Xi cheered up. "In a few days, it''s a regular logistics meeting. The palace asked the old people who have been walking in the inner palace for many years to inquire about what suitable candidates are..."


    Xiao soul couldn''t help stamping his feet, "madam! You took the official again to have fun! If you marry someone, no one will stare at those palace maids who hold pens for you. Where will you cry then? "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "Yo, you''re married, so you won''t work in front of this palace? That won''t work! You and Zi Ran should make a deal before marriage. After marrying someone, you will still be the close secretary of the palace! "


    Chunnuan laughed again, "in the future, Lord Xiao is not a girl, that is his daughter-in-law... As usual, he wants to be the head mother..."


    Xiao soul chased them up again


    Looking at the smile on Zhuo Xi''s face, the Spring Festival Gala couldn''t help wiping the wet meaning from the corners of her eyes. She is most afraid to see her mother''s dazed eyes. She doesn''t know when she can sleep for more than ten days, or make some shocking moves


    Seeing that Lord Wang has been away from the palace for more than a month... I can''t do anything except keep an eye on the empress every day and be careful not to let her and the Dragon seed in her stomach have any mistakes... It seems that, maybe, there is another thing I can do


    When Lin Lang arrived at Junyao City, the whole Junyao city was on high alert.


    A notice has long been posted at the gate of the city, which means that don''t let the cool army invade. Junyao city keeps the city closed.


    Liao Liao, a few people like her who didn''t know the news, looked at the door and sighed.


    No matter how she changed her appearance or made money, she couldn''t open a gap in the gate of Junyao city.


    At this time, she was very eager to have an iron gun in her hand and blast a hole directly out of the city gate.


    She had brought the big bag of fire thunder to avenge Cui Jiu. Because it was inconvenient to carry, she abandoned it and buried it in a wild mountain. She wanted to be fast on the road. When she passed zhaojialing, she didn''t bring two of her own people. She had to swing outside the city like an ant on a hot pot all day, trying to find a gap and sneak into Junyao city.


    Unable to enter the city, Wang Qixin told her that several dark piles could not be contacted.


    Finally on the third day, she waited ten miles away from Junyao city for the mighty 80000 troops in Jingyuan.


    These days, the gate of Junyao city has always been closed. Neither messenger nor reinforcements have come in.


    At a glance, she saw Jiang Yuan, who was walking at the forefront of the team.


    She ran up without saying a word.


    A soldier stopped her.


    She yelled at Jiang Yuan and made the gesture she had taught him to issue artillery orders.


    Jiang Yuan recognized her from a distance and quickly ordered someone to let her in.


    As soon as she got to Jiang Yuangen, she said hurriedly, "take me to your supreme commander!"


    Jiang Yuan looked embarrassed. "What''s the matter, girl? I''ll give you a message for the girl... "


    Lin Lang said angrily, "I have an urgent military situation. If you don''t take me to see him, don''t regret it!"


    At this time, orders came from behind to camp on site.


    Jiang Yuan was delighted. "Don''t worry, girl. The king has ordered to camp on the spot. When the camp is set up, I will take you to the king immediately! "


    I didn''t expect Jing Yuan to come in person?


    Lin Lang was happy, but he was even more angry. "Will he do it when he sets up camp? Now, take me to him at once! "


    Jiang Yuan had a headache. He didn''t know how to respond. While stopping his shenpao camp and setting up camp on the spot, he found a place to sit down and asked Lin Lang to sit down and rest for a while.


    Lin LANGPING replied angrily and told him seriously, "I found a weakness in the design of the iron gun. One accidentally hit the opposite direction. Take me to the king. I''ll tell him this weakness and ask him to correct it. And only when I see him will I say, "don''t ask me what my weakness is."


    Hearing this, Jiang Yuan immediately couldn''t sit still. He jumped up and ran straight behind.


    Lin Lang is so mean that he has to be scared to be obedient!

 Chapter 181

    They soon arrived at the back where Jing Yuan rested. There are sentries every few steps, so no one can get close to him.


    Jiang Yuan reported up layer by layer and finally saw the big supervisor of Wuhe report to him. As soon as Wuhe saw Lin Lang, he immediately greeted her with a smile and went in to see Jing Yuan.


    Lin Lang likes Wuhe very much. In her opinion, Wuhe is definitely the kind of person with high Eq. everyone smiles and leaves room for things. Such people are unreasonable if they do not succeed in modern society.


    In the temporary tent, Lin Lang saw the king.


    Lin Lang didn''t get in close contact with him. At this time, he was less than three meters away from himself. He was wearing silver armor, tall and straight as loose, with a look of awe. At a glance, he knew that he was the man who planned the curtain in the battlefield. He gave her a look in his eyes. A person without a deep-rooted concept of superiority and inferiority couldn''t help but feel weak and have to kneel down.


    Fortunately, he said in time, "since Miss Lin is Xier''s sister, she should call my brother-in-law. Please don''t be polite."


    Her voice was gentle and pleasant. She suddenly stood up straight and arched her hands and said, "king, no, brother-in-law, Lin Lang is brave. That''s what I call you."


    The five rivers outside the door burst into a cold sweat. The title is the most basic dignity and inferiority. Who will take the polite words said by the king of a country seriously?


    "Miss Lin Lang, you came to find me, but what''s important?" Jing Yuan knew that the iron gun, fire and thunder were all the credit of the girl Lin Lang in front of him. He was very polite, but she actually appeared when the two armies were fighting. He had to be vigilant. He never forgot that this girl Lin Lang was originally from Zisang country and made friends with the crown prince of Zisang country. No, the former crown prince.


    Lin Lang remembered his purpose and hurriedly said, "brother-in-law, when are you going to attack Junyao city now?"


    "The sooner the better. Your sister can''t wait." Jing Yuan said in a deep voice.


    Lin Lang only thought that his return was like an arrow and didn''t think about it, so he asked, "after entering the city, can you bring me into the city?"


    "Oh? Miss Lin Lang entered the city, but what''s important? " He looked like water and could not see any emotion.


    "I want to save someone."


    Jing Yuan immediately thought, "Jing Huang? Former Prince Zisang? "


    Lin Lang nodded, "yes, it''s Cui Jiu. He has been imprisoned in the former Prince''s house since he was abolished. I would have come to save him long ago. It was your queen who asked me to build this iron gun. But I never thought that these ten iron guns were aimed at Junyao city. Of course, it makes no difference to me where you attack, but Cui Jiu is still in Junyao city. Brother in law, for the sake of my contribution to the Wuliang army, take me in to find him. I just want Cui Jiu, who has all the hair and all the tail, okay? " She thought that just now the king saw that he was not different. She thought that his whereabouts were in his vision. It was not enough to play with him. She didn''t beat around the Bush and directly said her intention.


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and stared at the Impatiens on her forehead. "I heard that Miss Lin Lang is the orphan of Zisang royal family?"


    Lin Lang immediately said, "what orphan! I''m just the product of an old maid of honor having an affair with a bodyguard, but they have to put the name of "witch" on my head and want to kill me! " She glanced at Jing Yuan, "I understand that you are all worried about me because I was born in Zisang. It''s not easy for me to escape from prison, but it''s not easy for me to take revenge. It''s not easy for me to escape from prison. I''ll come back this time just to save the person I want to save. But the whole Junyao city has been completely closed. I can''t go to the city to find you! I promise, after I save Cui Jiu, I won''t do anything, just take him away! Then I will return to the capital of Beijing and realize my promise of sitting in the museum for three years! So on that day, Zhuo Xi asked me, do you want people or money? Of course I choose someone! Now that she has promised me someone, you can''t break her promise. "


    After a moment of silence, Jing Yuan''s faint expression appeared a little loose, "I don''t believe it."


    Now it was her turn to be surprised: "do you believe me?" She thought it would take a lot of time to dispel his doubts. After all, she created a miracle in the history of the war


    "No, I don''t believe you. I believe in the friendship between you and Xi''er."


    Lin Lang took a hard breath and didn''t know whether his next action in line with common sense should vomit gas or blood


    Jing Yuan''s face showed a gentle color, "since Xi''er promised you, I also promised you. However, you''ll stay in the barracks these days. You can''t act alone until the whole army of our army enters the city. "


    So, she galloped so far and so long. In the end, it''s better to beg Zhuo Xi than to beg him? Had known it, he directly said Zhuo Xi promised her... Lin Lang took a deep breath, nodded and squeezed out a smile, "OK."


    It''s done, ready to retreat


    But Jing Yuan casually pointed to a small chair next to him and said, "sit down."


    Lin Lang was surprised. After talking about the matter, shouldn''t he say "you can step down"? Look at this posture. Are you talking?


    What are you talking about?


    On the way over, I heard that when his troops crossed zhaojialing on the first day, they went straight to Wulin pass, the first barrier of Zisang state. In only half an hour, 80000 people and horses marched into Kailin pass. Last year, she spent nine cattle and two tigers to make people pretend to be strange bears and lead away the soldiers guarding the pass. Only then did she pass through the narrow area where everyone can''t leave the pass. When she passed the Wulin pass a few days ago, the narrow official road had been bombed to the ground, and there was no natural danger to keep. I don''t know how much fire and thunder he used to blow up the sheep intestines valley.


    I don''t know how many men and horses, how much money he spent, how many torpedoes and shells... It seems that he has only given them the formula of torpedoes for a few months?


    She had been to the twelve cities they occupied with lightning speed. Although people''s lives are still in order, they smell cool and turn pale. It is said that a village was slaughtered by the whole village. It is said that 6000 soldiers were buried alive in a city. It is also said that 800 heads were hung at the gate of a city overnight


    How many lives will it take to get back the long envoy who died under the iron hoof of Zhao Jialing? No, it''s not an iron hoof, it''s a horse hoof... God knows why no one here thought of nailing horseshoes, which made her come all the way and change more than a dozen horses


    What the hell is he doing?


    Thinking of these, she unknowingly burst out a little cold sweat in her palm, as if she felt some scalp numbness?


    It''s not that she didn''t think about the devastating consequences that these hot weapons she made would bring to the world. But what Zhuo Xi said that day finally moved her. She said that the five countries on the Yanlong continent were originally a complete big country. It was only because of the division decades ago that the five countries fought every year and the lives of the people were ruined. More than two months ago, Zisang and tengju fought. In just half a month, more than 100000 people were killed and injured. If a country with strong economic and military forces quickly grasps advanced hot weapons, does it mean that it can quickly end this scuffle and establish a strong and unified country?


    Zhuo Xi said, "now, the first creative force to change history is in your hands. You don''t want to be a historical person? You don''t want to leave a glorious footprint in this inexplicably arrived era? "


    Although her biggest dream is to make money, she has to admit that what Zhuo Xi said has a certain attraction.


    Later, Zhuo Xi also said: "only when the country is unified and the productivity develops, can the overall wealth level of the whole country be improved. If the people are rich and the country is determined, you will be rich. Otherwise, based on the current people''s productivity and living standards, it is expected that your oil lamp will not be popularized to thousands of households within 50 years... "


    Well, she had to admit that in fact, the last straw that crushed her was - in the long run, people had no purchasing power at all. How could she make a fortune from civil oil products? Although there are many ways to make money, this is a monopoly industry she most wants to do at present


    She has seen the lives of many ordinary people, eating rice bran, swallowing pickled vegetables and weeds, living in thatched houses and building straw mats... It''s like going to Africa to sell diamond cars to ordinary people in the 20th century. How can ordinary people buy these products if they don''t have enough to eat and wear warm? Since she can''t afford it, how can she make money? I have to say that Zhuo Xi''s idea of unification of the world moved her.


    Her mind turned quickly, thinking that for a black king, arms and weapons are undoubtedly the most attractive... These iron guns and fire mines are already their knowledge system. In this era and environment, they can make the most advanced weapons by using existing resources. Other weapons, such as fire guns, atomic bombs, aircraft missiles, have nothing to do without technical support, What if you know? That''s the level you squeeze again


    Thinking so, I feel that there seems to be no danger


    Does the king of a country at the moment want to talk to himself about the war situation of Zisang country? Or talk about his idea of dominating the world? Or ask yourself if you have any new weapons of destruction?


    She measured her combat effectiveness alone, compared the huge psychological and strength gap between herself and the killer opposite, and sat down like a stream of good advice.


    Five rivers came in and served tea. At first glance, it''s zhuoxi''s technique. It''s green tea


    "Listen, you come from China?" He asked faintly, as if he were saying something that had nothing to do with them.


    Lin Lang''s brain exploded, and the tea in his mouth almost gushed out. He was shocked.


    Do you want to be so scary when you open your mouth?

 Chapter 182

    He just asked about his origin and clearly knew that he was born in Zisang... Doesn''t that mean he knows her? No, they are, resurrecting from the dead? She thought in horror.


    The point is, what value do you have for the world? Or what value does she have for him? How will he deal with himself?


    She looked helpless and said, "you, how did you..."


    Jing Yuan''s face showed a gentle look, "this matter is so suspicious and thoughtful. Can you be a third person besides the two of you?"


    This Zhuo Xi, unexpectedly so trust her man?


    She always thought that only the two of them knew the secret... She never thought that in this time and space, someone would know their origin


    If you... Don''t know if you have the courage to tell the person next to you


    How much does he know? How much did she say?


    She then showed a clear look on her face and nodded, "yes, we come from China."


    Jing Yuan continued, "so this can explain that your behavior is slightly different from here."


    A little different. Is that too polite?


    Set fire to the palace of the nominally "adoptive father and adoptive mother", hated that a person could use fire thunder to blow up her new house, arbitrarily changed the concept of nationality, no home country and hometown, and played with men in the palm of her hand... Er, well, the last one doesn''t count. Reluctantly, there is only Cui Jiu. In his mind, shouldn''t he be deviant and rebellious?


    There is only one reason for being polite, that is Zhuo Xi.


    So she quickly flattered Zhuo Xi, "in fact, it''s OK. It''s not too difficult to adapt here. You see, didn''t the queen dissolve into the life of the palace very quickly? Last time I saw her, she kept the whole harem in good order, equipped with a private secretary and a private housekeeper, and redesigned the residence to solve the inconvenient problems in life. It is simply a successful model of modern walkers... "


    "Crossing? What is crossing? " Jing Yuan captured this word sensitively.


    Didn''t Zhuo Xi tell him he came through?


    She looked into his eyes with a look of bewilderment on her face. She gently drew an arc in front of him from right to left with the index finger of her right hand, and said uncertainly, "it''s probably... Like this?"


    Jing Yuan frowned, but there was no color of doubt in his eyes, but he didn''t understand it.


    She quickly asked, "what did sister Zhuo Xi say?"


    He shook his head and said, "Xi''er just mentioned to me that your school is in a place called China. Your master has the immortal Dharma. He sent you here with a whoosh... "


    Lin Lang was stunned. Unexpectedly, Zhuo Xi described the crossing so simply and roughly


    A school called China... Well, she answered correctly!


    She immediately felt relieved and nodded like pounding garlic: "yes, yes, that''s it. With a whoosh, she''s here!"


    Jing Yuan still had a faint look. "Can you tell me what kind of place your school is?"


    "Er..." Lin Lang Dahan, a Chinese master with immortal Dharma... She thought and could only carry out Zhuo Xi''s simple and rough hypothesis to the end, as long as he was willing to believe it


    "It''s a fairy mountain. People on the mountain can fly around in the sky as long as they have money. Similarly, as long as you have money, you can swim around in the sea. Heaven and earth, travel thousands of miles a day, nothing is a dream. There is no war, no slaves, no polygamy, wives and concubines, not only men and women are equal, but also everyone is equal... "


    She carefully considered describing the scenes she thought he was interested in. Sure enough, she saw him open his eyes like a three good student: "monogamy, everyone is equal?"


    "Yes, there is no husband as a wife and no monarch as a minister. Husband and wife are also equal. No one depends on anyone. Some help each other and tolerate each other..." she suddenly understood his real purpose of chatting with her and completely instilled the modern concept of marriage into him, especially the theory of junior three, Finally, he was very thirsty.


    It happened that Wuhe had just come in and sent tea again. She impolitely picked up the tea on the table and drank it.


    Jing Yuan was thoughtful and asked, "did he say how to go back when you were thrown by master with the immortal method?"


    The tea in Lin Lang''s mouth immediately gushed out. This is definitely a technical problem... How to answer?? If she knew how to go back, would she stay where the bird doesn''t shit?


    She coughed twice and guessed in the lightning and flint whether he wanted us to go back or not?


    In hesitation, Jing Yuan''s eyes lit up, "Miss Lin means..." can''t you go back?


    Seeing his expression, she immediately saw him and said with a smile, "when master sent us here, he said that everything should go with fate... When the time comes, she will be able to go back naturally. If the time has not come, you can''t go back if you want to. "


    It''s not that I don''t have a chance to go back, is it?


    His expression returned to the usual indifference, as if the look of curiosity and hope had never appeared.


    Lin Lang''s heart missed two beats. Is he disappointed? fear? fear?


    Zhuoxi must like him, right? Otherwise, how could you tell him such an important thing? She had seen Zhuo Xi get along with him. There was no dignity, only respect, no primary and secondary, only follow questions. Especially at the post seal ceremony, she looked at the moment when he held Zhuo Xi''s hand and announced "sharing the world and governing peace" to the world. She could see that he was used to and enjoyed this equal relationship. From this point of view, he should love her very much, right? Which King is not suspicious? Which King is not sovereign? She knows how difficult it is for a monarch to do this in an era when the idea of superiority and inferiority has been deeply rooted. However, she also knows that Zhuo Xi doesn''t care about the right to rule the world together. What she cares about is the respect and love given to her by the person around her. At that moment, it must be false to say that she had no envy, jealousy and hatred.


    If so, if Zhuo Xi goes back... So, is he afraid of her leaving?


    She silently added a hundred points to the black man in front of her.


    "Miss Lin, I have one more question to ask. Do you know a man named Canglang?" Jing Yuan pursed his lips and asked.


    Lin Lang felt that the sweat she had finally shrunk back would come out again. In fact, she didn''t know her past except that Zhuo Xi was also a jumper. Say you don''t know? Don''t you expose that you don''t know Zhuo Xi well? If you are a fellow martial sister, how can you not know each other? Say yes? Does he know who the wolf is? Besides, I''m both a younger sister and a junior sister... If I''m wrong, I''m also a gangster


    Since I know from Zhuo Xi, this person must be very important to Zhuo Xi. However, from his standpoint, if this person even cares about him, is it... Zhuo Xi''s old lover?


    So she gambled, touched her nose, and made an unspeakable appearance, "he, he is..."


    She saw another flash of hope in his eyes and almost bit her tongue, "she is Zhuo Xi''s good friend! Our senior brother! " She saw the light in his eyes disappear in an instant... Eh? She didn''t say anything? She didn''t say she was Zhuo Xi''s boyfriend. Why did she have a sad and gloomy expression?


    He tightened his lips. "Do you know where he is?" Just after the end of the sound, a spirit of weeping came to my face.


    Lin Lang couldn''t help but have to help the forehead, but the answer must be yes, "he didn''t come!" He didn''t come, did he? If you come, you will die


    She immediately felt that the fierce spirit opposite disappeared.


    She stroked her chest. No, she couldn''t talk any more. She quickly got up. "My brother-in-law, my daughter is thirsty and hungry. Can someone take me to dinner? I''ve been here for three days... "


    Jingyuan immediately called Wuhe and asked him to arrange it.


    Seeing this, Lin Lang immediately got up and went out of the door.


    After wiping the sweat on his forehead, Lin Lang felt that the whole person was relaxed. When she got out of the temporary camp, she looked around and found that the dense tents had been built in only ten minutes.


    From time to time, soldiers walk around in armor, without noise, very orderly. She secretly praised Jing Yuan''s preciseness in running the army.


    Wuhe took her to a small white tent not far away and said respectfully, "Miss Lin, this is the tent specially ordered by the king to prepare for you alone. Take a break here first and someone will bring food. At night, please stay in the tent. If you hear any noise, don''t be afraid. Don''t walk around at will. "


    She nodded, "I see. Thank you, eunuch."


    Five rivers saluted and retreated. At that moment, he suddenly understood why the queen could only get the king''s blue eyes, and why the queen had a deep friendship with Miss Lin in front of her, because they were the same in their bones. They didn''t despise the physically disabled or the slave servants, as if everyone was as noble in their eyes Just as ordinary


    Temporary accommodation, not even a table and chair. But Lin Lang was very surprised at the cleanliness of the tent. There was even a primitive smell of soap horn between the bedding and the mat... The floor was paved on thick straw, and there was a faint smell of hay


    She had to sit cross legged on the paved floor and suddenly felt that she smelled very smelly.


    It seems that I haven''t taken a bath for five days?


    Here... Thinking that there were 80000 men around... She shivered. Forget it, bear it again, and call him when she came to Cui Jiu


    As she pondered the situation under her eyes, she took out a thing wrapped in tarpaulin from her arms, carefully opened it and looked at it, with a strange smile on her lips.

 Chapter 183

    The night was heavy and everything was quiet.


    Suddenly, there was a loud noise not far away. In the flames and smoke, we could see a crack in the wall not far away.


    Then countless loud noises came one after another


    Zi Ran stood on a small soil slope, in front of which was Jing Yuan''s tall and straight figure.


    This is not the first time he has gone with the Lord.


    As early as eight years ago, he started as the lowest soldier in the military camp.


    It was during the battle between the state of Wuliang and datan that he saw with his own eyes that the 13-year-old boy in front of him disintegrated the attack of 30000 enemy troops with 5000 troops.


    At that time, the LORD was just a small deputy general. Everyone thought he was sent by the king to the army to play in the name of "exercise". On that day, he just practiced with the army in Jingyuan''s fun style method. During the practice, many brothers complained, scolded their mother and called their father, and even some shouted to let him roll back to Kyoto in front of Jingyuan.


    Jing Yuan then set up a challenge arena in the army, claiming that as long as someone defeated him, he immediately rolled back to Kyoto.


    As a result, no one can beat him.


    We had to continue to complain and tired training. Another objection is the overwhelming punishment


    At that time, no one would know that more than a month later, datan would send 30000 people to sneak attack this border town called Helin.


    When three thousand people including him were quietly taken out of the city by Jing Yuan, we didn''t know that we were about to face the battle of life and death.


    Finally, when facing the dense enemy barracks in front of him, Jing Yuan briefly explained his intention to everyone, divided 3000 men and horses into three teams, and ordered them to insert from the left and middle wings respectively. The third team had other arrangements. Everyone was stunned. But fortunately, this month''s training made them never lack courage. After being stunned, they attacked the enemy in the dark with pride.


    When the left wing and the middle wing met, the LORD had quietly led several guards close to the camp of the enemy''s main general.


    I was at the end of the left wing. I had red eyes all the way. I didn''t find that the road was going very smoothly until I caught a glimpse of the fire flashing rhythmically in the corner of my eye. I couldn''t help shouting "be careful, there is an ambush!"


    Soon the enemy pointed guns and knives at them from behind. When they were disappointed, they saw the Lord coming out with the head of the enemy''s main general... Jing Yuan shouted, "the main general is dead, who dares to act rashly! Our army has already surrounded this mountain with 100000 troops. Those who fall will not be killed! "


    At this time, the sound of horses'' hoofs came from the periphery, and there were smoke and dust at the flash of fire.


    Not only the enemy but also themselves felt relieved and thought that reinforcements had really come.


    The enemy immediately collapsed like a mountain. Two thousand men and horses fought and retreated and rushed out of the camp. All the way back to Helin pass, everyone looked at each other and couldn''t believe that he, the king, defeated an attack of 30000 troops so easily?! They didn''t even hear the drums of the two armies fighting. They thought it was a dream. Until the next day, after the counselors wrote down their military achievements one by one in the military achievement book, they suddenly woke up and cheered with joy!


    Later, I heard that the LORD heard his cry and immediately changed the route to capture the enemy''s main general. Instead of going straight to the main general''s camp, he entered another lighted ordinary military tent separated by three tents, where he successfully captured the enemy''s main general... So he successfully entered the Lord''s vision and became his personal guard.


    Later, I heard that the original 100000 reinforcements were all the illusion created by the third team of 1000 men and horses, tying branches with horsetails and circling around the camp


    Later, there was the battle of yimingguan and the battle of wansha city


    Which time is not a close contest between blood and meat, a short soldier fighting with a knife and a gun? Which war did not kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred soldiers?


    But I never thought that one day, the war could be like this. People stood far away and only fired shells and fire mines... There was no strategy or divided into several queues. Everyone crowed in front of the enemy... Then the city broke... Then the other party surrendered


    God knows how boring these 80000 Sergeants are. Most of the knives and arrows in their hands haven''t tasted the smell of blood in the past half a month


    In the roar of explosions one after another, Zi Ran''s mood didn''t know where to go.


    I know what happened more than a month ago.


    That day, the king and the queen suddenly had a little quarrel. Then the queen went down to the wind garden in a rage, talked with Chu Bo all afternoon, and stayed closed after returning to Ning''an palace. Then I heard that she fell into a state of drowsiness, and the medicine stone had no spirit. The king took care of Ning''an palace day and night, but seven days later, in a panic, he took people straight to donglanbie palace. The king had a secret conversation with Jing Hua in the palace for a long time, so he came out and asked him to issue a decree to all officials, saying that Zisang provoked trouble in zhaojialing. An army came forward to put pressure on Wuliang state, and he wanted to conquer Zisang state. Both the government and the public were shocked.


    So far, he still doesn''t believe that Jing Yuan attacked Zisang state for the second seal of the emperor. But his intuition was that what the LORD was looking for must be in the Junyao city and must have something to do with the queen.


    From the news Xiao soul sent to him, the Queen''s mood also changed greatly. First of all, on the day she woke up, the queen learned that she was pregnant. She heard that she had no joy at all. Instead, she looked gloomy. This emotion is not only among the people in the back palace, but also among outsiders.


    He still remembered the day when the two masters quarreled, the king just angrily denounced the joint request of the old princes and uncles in the Zichen Hall - they thought that now everything had been decided, they should fill the back palace and let the king leave blood as soon as possible. He still remembered that the king''s face was very blue that day. The atmosphere of killing on the battlefield, which had not appeared for many years, spread from top to bottom and filled the whole Zichen hall.


    He said, "since my accession to the throne, I have revitalized all industries and followed the principles of the dynasty because I have inherited my father''s last wishes. The queen took the holy order of heaven and managed the harem; Offer swordsmen to the border, Sergeant Fuyin; Enlighten the people in the countryside and benefit the world. In the long run, it is not extravagant to reproduce the glory and prosperity of the Yudian Dynasty. Without gratitude, you intend to destroy the deep friendship between widowed couples and the cornerstone of the great future of the country. What are your intentions? "


    When such a big hat as undermining the future of the country was buttoned down, the government and the public were afraid to speak. More courtiers tasted the ambition of this king from the middle, and took the lead in shouting, "long live the king!" Echoing one after another, Jing Yuan said again, "if anyone tells me about the affairs of the widowed back palace, immediately lock it and order Si kou to interrogate it. Is there any suspicion of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country!"


    He saw with his own eyes that the uncles and princes were sweating and suggested that the princess might be suspected of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country... Who dares to speak?


    When I thought of the queen, I was still depressed and depressed. I was worried and completely changed my original appearance.


    Later, the queen ordered to block all the information about the king... This made things big. The king''s quarrel with the queen is not as simple as that between ordinary couples. There is a fight at the head of the bed and a quarrel at the end of the bed... Besides, the king is not in the palace, and there is no way to explain anything.


    What''s more, Xiao soul said that the queen was tossing herself, and once she tiptoed to jump rope... This will kill people... Or the life of the Wang family''s heirs who are related to the future fate of the whole don''t cool


    Xiao soul was helpless. She always felt that she had nothing to say with the queen. This time, even she didn''t know what the queen thought.


    All these changes came from the Queen''s visit to the wind garden.


    But he knows everything Chu Bo said. Aren''t they the descendants of the Yu family? Why is the queen so depressed that she ignores the safety of her fetus?


    He saw both of them walking all the way.


    When I first met her on the green mountain, the queen showed her extraordinary wisdom. When she was in danger, the Lord protected her under her wings. Then I didn''t know what agreement they had reached. It was like overnight, the Lord suddenly understood his own feelings for the queen, and the two began to connect. Later, there was a rumor about her sleeping, but he knew it was just a rumor. Then she solved their dilemma with the manufacturing method of new weapons and returned to Kyoto. After returning to Beijing, a lot of things happened. The queen detoxified the Lord for many years and completely eliminated potential health hazards; When the LORD was in danger, the Queen''s mother was a wise savior... The queen wanted to build a house and build a Feiyu drunken jade Pavilion. The Lord gave her identity, gave her all freedom and escorted her... Later, I heard the Lord''s close guard cloud say the scene of two people bathing in blood and worshipping heaven and earth. I was so surprised that I couldn''t return to God for a long time. When would the Lord want to win her heart by this means of coaxing and cheating? Lord, is that what the Empress Dowager asked for at that time? Somehow, he hid in the Wu family... Then the LORD went to the cold alone. The queen went to Liangzhou to break the situation. Originally, she thought their wedding would be successful. Unexpectedly, she was rushed back to Kyoto overnight by a piece of news that the Empress Dowager was critically ill... Later, there were a series of shocking changes. The first king died and the prince was bewitched, The queen even killed two emperors, but she saved her life suspiciously... He didn''t know why. But he always knew that when the king and the queen went all the way here, they were already blood dissolved in water and never gave up


    The eight words "share the world and rule peace" in the Declaration on the post seal ceremony are still in our ears, shaking the deaf and giving feedback. He was surprised that the woman originally called "Zhuo Xi girl" had unknowingly become a key figure affecting the national power of Wuliang... And also an important figure affecting the decision-making of the monarch of Wuliang... So far, he didn''t know how the so-called cabinet system came into being in her head, just like many of her previous ideas, which not only improved efficiency, It also improved the accuracy and almost subverted the original government pattern, but no one could say... Later, she threw fire mines and cannons... Although the perpetrator was Lin Lang, how could Wuliang country obtain these earth shaking weapons so easily without the queen? There is a mystery that she never ends, just like a mystery


    Between them, it is impossible to accommodate a third person, and there has never been a third person. What is the reason that makes the queen so determined

 Chapter 184

    Lin Lang was awakened by the loud noise from the sky while he was sleeping.


    She got up after a bone rush. It was convenient for her to get up because she slept with her clothes closed.


    She pulled the curtain out and found that two arms stretched out at the same time on the left and right of the door, blocking the way.


    Two unknown soldiers, one of them said politely, "Miss Lin, the villain was ordered by the king to stay in the tent and wait."


    Lin Lang took a deep breath, pressed down his anger, and pulled out a smile on his face. "Brother, I''m thirsty. I don''t know where there is water?"


    Another soldier said politely, "Miss Lin, please wait a moment, and the villain will pick it up right away!"


    Then he turned and left. Lin Lang kept watching him go away.


    The soldier said with a smiling face, "Miss Lin, you''d better wait in the account. It''s windy outside. You don''t have to blow your eyes out."


    Lin Lang asked in a good temper, "I''m sorry to bother you two to watch the night here. Are you sleepy?"


    The soldier smiled and said, "what''s this? We''ve played a comfortable war. Don''t say we don''t sleep all night, even ten nights. We''re also happy!"


    Lin Lang politely nodded, "that''s hard for you. I''ll go first."


    Then she pulled up the curtain and went in.


    The soldier turned and stood.


    Lin Lang suddenly jumped out in the twinkling of an eye when the curtain was down. A hand knife cleaved the soldier''s back neck, and the soldier fell down softly.


    "Let you have a good sleep."


    She said proudly, feeling the dark and jumping into the night.


    Jing Yuan looked at the city with a heavy face. Zi Ran saw a signal of fireworks rising from a distance and told the master, "Miss Lin is out of the camp."


    He didn''t use "escape" because he knew that the master didn''t die and had to detain her in the account.


    Jing Yuan nodded, "if she can''t even get out of the camp, she won''t be Lin lang."


    Zi Ran couldn''t understand. Obviously, the LORD looked like he trusted Miss Lin Lang very much. Why did he still arrange Jian Yun to "protect" her


    However, he also knew that there was a cloud, and Miss Lin could not do anything harmful to the country


    "Go and ask Jing Hua to come over."


    "Promise."


    For a moment, Jing Hua, dressed in military uniform, climbed the hillside, knelt down on one knee and gave a standard military salute. He said excitedly, "Your Majesty, it''s only a quarter of an hour, and there''s a gap in the east gate. Bai Zhong has sent someone to send the head of Lin He, general Zisang Sima, who was cut down two days ago. "


    Jing Yuan nodded and told Zi Ran, "so, go on as planned and have a truce for half an hour."


    Zi Ran was also excited and went to preach. According to past experience, the city Lord would probably disarm and surrender. Among the twelve cities they occupied all the way, only three of the City owners fought tenaciously to the end, but they still couldn''t change the fate of city destruction and occupation. All the other nine cities raised white flags under the frightening strong soldiers and sharp guns.


    Although this is the capital of Zisang, no matter what choice they make, the outcome will not change.


    Because he knows that the Lord can''t wait


    The reason why we choose to launch the thunder attack at the end of the ugly age, when people''s hearts are most loose and their sleep is most deep, is to let the people of Junyao city taste extreme fear in deep sleep; They were sent to the head of the reinforcements, so that they had no hope at all, and finally made up their mind to end the war as soon as possible.


    Moreover, the effect of such fire and thunder is naturally more powerful at night


    It''s really worth it. They even bring the craftsmen who make fire and thunder shells with the army, so that they can get local materials at any time and provide fire and thunder shells continuously. Last time I heard that the black water from Wulin mountain can be added to the fire thunder. Its power will be greatly increased. Unfortunately, it is still under development


    Jing Yuan and Jing Hua were left on the top of the slope. Under the sign of Jing Yuan, Jing Hua took out a thin piece of silk paper.


    The two men made clear the course of action and put the silk paper away again.


    When Zi Ran passed the military order and climbed the hillside again, he saw the lights on the wall upstairs in front of him.


    Jing Yuan smiled, "you can go into the city..."


    Zi Ran and Jing Hua looked at each other, and they both saw excitement in each other''s eyes.


    Jing Yuan and his party rode on a high horse and came to the dilapidated gate building. Behind him was a neat column of soldiers. Behind the soldiers were eleven big iron guns lined up. There was still a faint smoke on the muzzle. Then there are the 80000 soldiers.


    There were torches all around, which scattered the smoke, mixed with the disgusting smell of burnt meat, and there was a faint groan.


    The tower has collapsed into a mound, and the original solid gate has been incredibly broken into countless pieces, with iron nails and pieces attached to it.


    The slightly low-lying area of the mound has become a new leapfrog passage. Several people came out one after another and knelt down on the ground.


    The last one came out was a big man dressed in armor, but with a thick rope on his face and a jade in his mouth.


    At a glance, he recognized Jing Yuan, who was at the forefront of the team, knelt down and worshipped three times. Then he took out the jade in his mouth with his hand. His face looked ugly and ferocious because it was tied with thick rope.


    The son however in the mind ascended for a while, appear with such surrender etiquette, presumably the official position is listed as Jiuqing.


    I only heard him say, "Jiang Jian, the slave of the crime of subjugation, welcome the new king!"


    Zi Ran was surprised again. Sure enough, Jiang Jian was the Tingwei of the Zisang monarch Yaocheng, responsible for the safety of the whole Junyao City, but why did he say that he was the "new king"?


    He looked at Jing Yuan and said, "you are sober. Where is the old man, Jing?"


    Jiang Jian did not answer, but fell to the ground and said, "the new king has come all the way. No one can stop his artifact. It must be just around the corner when the whole world will surrender. Zisang has this difficulty, which is also God''s will. The sin slave has only one request, but he asks the new king not to embarrass 40000 people in our city. The sinner leads eight thousand guards of Junyao city to beg for mercy. If they are still available, I hope the new king will leave them alive. It''s not a pity that sin slaves die... "


    Jing Yuan said in a deep voice, "sure enough, you are a smart man. You only lead the guard of Junyao City, but there are also internal historians in the palace. Yin and Jing are accompanied by Jin Yuwei. Are these people going to be left to me? Are you leading you into the urn or retreating? "


    "Sin slaves dare not. To tell you the truth, since the northern reinforcements were completely destroyed in Lanjian City three days ago, they knew that the new king was coming unstoppable, and more than half of the court advocated abandoning the city and surrendering to save the lives of the people. Sin slaves hold the lives of tens of thousands of people in Junyao city. How can they take it as a bet? The sin slave has prepared the seal of the Tingwei and respectfully welcomes the new king into the city. " He bowed again, stretched out his hand, took a burden from the follower''s hand and held it on his head.


    Jing Yuan motioned to Zi Ran and Zi Ran held him in his arms.


    Jing Hua said on one side, "well, please ask Jiang Tingwei to take the 8000 corporal and open the way for us and hit the palace directly!"


    Jiang Jian grabbed the big knife in the hand of another person and laid it across his neck. "New king, although Jiang Jian fell, it doesn''t mean to betray the old owner. Sin Nu believes that the eight thousand guards of Junyao city are also warm-blooded and upright people. We can surrender for the people, but we can''t kill the old master. If the new king is determined to do so, we will not regret our death! "


    Then he shouted, "fall for the people and die for the old lord!" He cut his neck with a knife and sprayed blood all over the ground.


    The crowd kneeling behind also echoed, "fall for the people and die for the old lord!" Then one after another, the sound of knives, the dull sound of suicide


    Then I saw a large area falling in the crowd.


    Seeing that it was wrong, Zi ran quickly shouted, "wait a minute. As you all know, since our army entered the purple mulberry country in the south, it has always fallen without killing. You are all family with wives and children. If you lose your life in vain, you should take care of your family regardless of yourself. The king didn''t mean that. He just wanted you to point out a way for our army. You must not fall into the treachery of Jiang Tingwei''s words! "


    The rest of the people hesitated to look at each other, and one came out and said, "in that case, we''ll lead the way. I hope the new king will not break his promise and let the people in the city go. "


    Zi Ran looked at Jing Yuan, saw him nod slightly, and said, "please lead the way."


    A group of people marched into the city.


    Someone had cleared the road to let the eleven artifact enter the city smoothly.


    There was no sound in the city except the sound of these sergeants walking, the sound of horses'' hoofs and the movement of gun racks.


    The people are still sleeping. No, they may be awakened by the rolling thunder, but they dare not do anything and hide in the house shivering


    Jing Yuan was obviously satisfied with this order and moved forward happily towards his final destination.


    Soon a group of people came to the high siege outside the palace.


    Yin, the internal historian who guards the palace, and Jin Yuwei, who guards the king, will not surrender because of the lives of the people.


    But in front of the powerful and overwhelming magic weapons, all of them are tragically determined to die.


    Without suspense, the iron guns were lined up, and everyone held their breath.


    The remaining thousands of Zisang troops have been taken over by a counselor of Bai Zhong. Since we want to run this royal city, we naturally need a lot of people to do things.


    Then inadvertently, "bang", the first shell hit the wall of the palace, and a big hole immediately appeared.


    How can the wall of the palace compare with the thickness of the wall?


    There were sharp arrows on the wall at once, and huge stones were thrown by stone blocks.


    This is the longest counterattack they can think of.


    However, the Wuliang army just looked coldly at the arrows and boulders that fell when they were unable to reach them, just like the cities they had broken all the way before.


    Shenpao camp was also surprised by the first shot. Unexpectedly, the palace wall was so fragile. So Jiang Yuan made a gesture to disperse their shooting density.


    Then soon, after a loud noise, a row of palace walls and gates in front of them disappeared.


    Jiang Yuan, who commanded the shenpao camp, made a gesture, and all the iron guns stopped the attack temporarily.


    The audience was silent.


    Soon, there was a cry in the palace.


    Also soon, the shenpao camp changed a formation and was neatly arranged in two rows; Hundreds of crossbow soldiers with new bows and crossbows are on both sides; Then hundreds of soldiers in heavy armor lined up on the outermost sides and raised their shields. The formation was like a sharp blade and drove into the palace of Zisang state.

 Chapter 185

    When Lin Lang arrived at the former Prince''s house where Cui Jiu was imprisoned, it was already dawn. In front of the door stood two bodyguards, standing as straight as pine. She walked around the corner gate in the morning light and suddenly saw a piece of gravel on the stone pier at the foot of the stone lion in front of the main gate


    She immediately alertly left the former Prince''s house, turned and ran to the East Street.


    There was no one above the street.


    This morning is destined to be late.


    Originally, when it was slightly bright, some hardworking craftsmen and farmers had begun their day''s work.


    But the night before, all the people heard the loud noise. The rumors of national destruction spread in Junyao city for more than ten days have finally been verified. They can only hide in the house and stay closed, praying that the new monarch can let them live.


    Due to Jiang Jian''s defection, the soldiers who had been patrolling the night were taken over by someone else.


    Lin Lang came to the door of a humble medicine shop and gently knocked on the wooden door, four long and one short. After a while, there was also a soft knock in the door in response to her. Lin Lang immediately said, "doctor, help! My 87 old mother has been in bed for three months. She just had a sudden convulsion and fainted. Please ask the old miracle doctor to diagnose and treat my mother..."


    She knows the code words very well. Every time she thinks of it, she has to suffer abdominal pain. This is a code word that some idiot came up with. She went to see a doctor in the middle of the night and cursed her mother... Although her parents didn''t know where to reincarnate... It''s really impolite, isn''t it?


    The door opened gently, and a low old woman''s voice said, "girl, I''m really sorry. My doctor went out for treatment and didn''t return all night."


    Lin Lang breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "could you please find a hundred year old ginseng for me first?"


    The old woman''s voice said, "girl, please come in and wait. I''ll go to the warehouse to find it."


    She flashed through the door.


    It was a long time before she came out.


    When they came out, they heard a loud noise from the city and thought, did they start attacking the palace?


    No, we have to hurry.


    She quickened her speed and shuttled through the alleys several times. Unexpectedly, she touched the backyard of an abandoned temple. There were scattered firewood, boards, moss, weeds and some tools for making furniture, such as knives and axes, scattered on the ground.


    She came to a place, but suddenly stopped.


    She couldn''t help laughing bitterly and walked around so many times that she thought she had successfully dumped the tail. Unexpectedly, she was followed up.


    She straightened her back and said in a loud voice, "which hero, come out and let the little woman see."


    "Good skill, girl." Clouds and rain came out of the darkness at the same time.


    She was surprised. She knew there was a tail behind her, but she didn''t know there were two people. One lost it and the other could leave a mark. No wonder she could bite herself all the time.


    "Where can I compare with you!" Lightness skills or something. She''s really willing to lose.


    "The girl is modest." Said Jian Yun.


    She said with a wry smile, "your Lord has promised to let me take all the people away. How can you go back?"


    Jianyun said with a smile, "don''t misunderstand me, miss. Our Lord has nine words. You want people, we want things. It''s nothing to do with each other. I just need a girl to lead the way. "


    She said she didn''t believe it. "If he were an ordinary prince, but he was an ex prince, I don''t think you would let him go. Besides, he''s just a waste prince. What else can he hide? "


    If Zisang''s country is broken, he is the best person to restore the country. She believes that as an ambitious king, he should choose to cut down the roots. This is why she still went into the city alone after reaching an agreement with Jingyuan.


    The clouds and rain looked at each other, and both sides nodded slightly. Jian Yun said, "to tell you the truth, the Lord''s purpose of this expedition is to find the second seal of the emperor. We don''t know why the prince Zisang abolished Prince Huang, but according to the Lord''s speculation, the prince Zisang may hide the second seal of the emperor in the hand of the abandoned prince in order to deceive people all over the world. Miss Lin, we are only ordered to take the seal. We will never hurt childe Cui. "


    Lin Lang''s face eased. They called Jing Huang Cui Jiu. Does that really mean that from now on, he is only Cui Jiu, not former crown prince Huang?


    Jian Yun saw her hesitation and continued, "if you don''t believe it, you will never leave childe Cui after seeing him. We want to do it. I''m afraid it''s not so easy with the skills of Childe Cui and the girl."


    Lin Lang thought for a moment. The bombing in the distance had long stopped. He was afraid that he would be late. Cui Jiu didn''t know where he was transferred, so he stamped his feet and said, "in this case, you two will go with me. But I have one request: since they come together, they will also go back together. I will go back with you to see the queen. " Use the queen to remind them, remind the black king, is it safer? If anything happens to Cui Jiu, how can they explain to the queen!


    They looked at each other and nodded, "OK."


    She kicked something covered with moss and straw on the ground, "help lift it up together."


    The cloud went up and touched it. It was actually a rotten wood. Over the years, the wood was covered with moss. When he pulled it, it was hard to pull it up. When the rain came again, they worked together to remove the wooden board on the ground. They found that the ground covered with wooden board was actually a waste well.


    Lin Lang was not surprised. He took out the gloves he was carrying around his waist, put them on, looked at the well by the dim light of the morning, and then jumped.


    The cloud was shocked and stretched out his hand to pull her, but he saw that she didn''t fall down, but climbed by the well and probed down step by step.


    When he looked carefully, he found that there was a bronze handle embedded in the well wall. He and the rain jumped into the waste well one after another. The rain carefully moved the board over, only to find that the back of the board was a large bronze board. No wonder it''s so heavy.


    After moving over, looking up from the inside, I found several small holes with dim light, which I''m afraid are used for ventilation.


    They looked down in awe and soon reached the ground. I don''t know which direction to go. After Jianyun took out a fire fold from his arms and lit it, he heard a cry from behind, "this way."


    The two secretly breathed out a sigh. Fortunately, Miss Lin Lang believed them. Otherwise, with her familiarity with this place, it was enough to give them a fatal blow at that moment.


    Lin Lang in front also touched a night pearl from his arms, which was faint and bright enough to illuminate the road under their feet. She said, "put out your torch. Although there is slight ventilation here, it is difficult to ensure that there is not enough oxygen. We have many people, so we''d better save some."


    What the hell is oxygen? Jianyun and Jianyu felt that the term was familiar and didn''t want to understand for a moment, but they still blew out the fire fold like a stream of good advice. The moment she just fell to the ground, she didn''t do it, and naturally she wouldn''t do it again.


    Walking in the dark, whoever holds the light source will take the initiative.


    Lin Lang smiled lightly. It didn''t mean anything. He just said, "let''s hurry up." They just use each other, not owe each other.


    The three soon came out of another half man high hole.


    Jianyun and Jianyu don''t know this place. They only see a beautiful rockery fence, which looks like the back garden of a rich family.


    It''s already dawn, but it''s silent here.


    Lin Lang swaggered with Jian Yun towards a wing room.


    Four rooms were opened, all empty.


    In the fifth room, as soon as the door was opened, a maid came out face to face. Lin Lang''s hand was like electricity, and a hand knife stunned her.


    Then I heard a slight cough coming from inside.


    Lin Lang walked quickly into the room full of medicine. The clouds and rain immediately disappeared behind her.


    At a glance, she saw a thin figure leaning against the bed. She had just coughed and her face was pale.


    The moment he looked up, he saw the figure thinking day and night. He couldn''t help pinching himself. His teeth cracked and he began to cough again.


    Lin Lang hurried forward and caressed his chest for him. "I still have the strength to abuse myself. It seems that I''m worried too much!"


    Cui Jiu looked at her and giggled, "I just want to know that I''m not dreaming?"


    She grabbed his bony hand and angrily said, "Jing, that old man should treat you like this! It seems that the lesson given to him last time was too small! " He just blew up his study. Next time, he''ll blow up his bedroom... Do you still have this chance?


    Cui Jiu didn''t answer, but held her hand and hurriedly explained, "lang''er, I''m not... I don''t..."


    Lin Lang''s face was stifled. After a long time, he murmured, "I believe you."


    Cui Jiu''s face was overjoyed and his anxiety was swept away. "Do you really believe me?"


    Lin Lang nodded.


    Cui Jiu laughed, but began to cough violently again.


    After coughing for a long time, Cui Jiu seriously said to Lin Lang, "lang''er, thank you for believing me. Two months ago, I asked my father and queen mother to marry shopkeeper Lin of zhaojialing Fulai inn. My father didn''t know where to get the news. He knew that you were the woman he had been sending troops to hunt down before. He also knew that Wang Qi and I had helped you and were so angry that... "


    Lin Lang was very surprised. "You mean that old man Jing Yu abandoned you because of me?" There was a rumor that he was drunk and flirted with his father''s beauty at the Palace Banquet before he was found wrong and abandoned... As soon as she heard the news, she knew it was a rumor. Unexpectedly, he lost the opportunity to inherit the country and mountain because of himself... However, according to today''s situation, the country and mountain didn''t have his share anyway. It was a blessing in disguise.


    Cui nodded and asked pitifully, "lang''er, I have nothing but you now. You won''t dislike me? "


    Lin Lang''s heart turned upside down, but there was a trace of disgust on his face immediately. "When you were the prince sitting in the world, did I want you?"

 Chapter 186

    Cui Jiu held her tightly, "no, you can''t despise me. No, no, even if you dislike me, I will rely on you! "


    Lin Lang''s face was buried in his chest, and tears came out silently.


    After a long time, she looked up and choked and asked him, "how are you? May I go? "


    "Go? Where are you going? "


    Lin Lang smiled with tears. "Naturally, I''m going to Fulai inn! The landlady is going to marry you there. Are you going? "


    Cui Jiu sighed, took her into his arms again, and said stuffy, "is something wrong?"


    She thought for a long time. Instead of letting him know the truth and blaming herself in the future, she might as well tell the truth now, "the army of the Wuliang Kingdom has invaded the palace just half an hour ago."


    "What are you talking about?!" Cui Jiufu went to the bed, opened his mouth and ejected a mouthful of blood. He struggled to get out of bed, "I, I want to go into the palace..."


    Lin Lang held him. "Don''t worry. Put on your clothes first."


    He staggered out two steps, then stopped again.


    Lin Lang hugged his waist and said, "although the facts are cruel, I still want to say, what can you do if you go? There are three thousand internal guards led by Yin, an internal historian, and three thousand internal guards led by the commander of Jin Yuwei in the palace. They can''t stop the iron guns of Wuliang. You are alone and seriously injured... "


    His spirits were split and he murmured, "how could this happen... It takes at least half a year of fierce battle to reach Junyao city when the Wuliang country is here and crosses twelve cities. How could it be so fast?" He has only been officially deposed for more than ten days. And I didn''t hear of the war between the two countries before I was banned?


    Lin Lang said again, "have you been locked up here for a month? Haven''t you heard that the purple mulberry Kingdom took twelve cities in only half a month with the sharp weapons of divine guns... "


    Cui Jiu was even more frightened and struggled to run forward. Lin Lang shouted, "Cui Jiu, you are now a waste prince!"


    He was in shape and fell softly.


    The meaning of this "waste Prince" is too rich.


    Lin Lang hurriedly picked him up and whispered in his ear, "if you leave at this time, what do you have to clean up?"


    Cui Jiu raised his eyes again. His eyes were red and stared at her.


    Lin Lang calmly faced him, "for me, nothing is more important than you. What''s more, Zisang is no longer your responsibility. "


    He spewed out a mouthful of blood again, pushed her away and laughed, "after all, they have chased you for 20 years! How can I believe that after I believe that you really treat your parents, they put down their hatred?! "


    Lin Lang was helpless. "Hey, their two countries are going to war. What''s none of my business?!"


    He stared at her without blinking. "Dare you say that this war has nothing to do with you?"


    Lin Lang Yusai has a lot to do with her, okay? Can she say that she made the magic gun that determines the victory or defeat of the war?


    Cui Jiu suddenly had a look of despair in his eyes. Without more words, he bypassed the stunned maid and walked hard forward.


    On the way, he fell down again and again. Lin Lang went to help him and was thrown away by him again and again.


    No one came out to stop them all the way.


    Cui Jiu suddenly seems to have figured out the whole thing.


    My father said inexplicably that he did not respect his relatives and was tired, lazy and lazy. A few days later, the maid of the East Palace was hanged from a tree. The coroner said that she had been pregnant for three months... Then there was a drunken molestation at the Palace Banquet, and he was inexplicably grounded. The theft of the last crown prince''s gold seal made my father angry and ordered to abolish the crown prince... My mother did not plead for him or comfort him


    He suddenly remembered the food box sent by his father the other day.


    This kind of thing has always been done by only the mother imperial concubine.


    He had no appetite at that time and said that he had rewarded the maid who had been serving her.


    Then the maid even said she didn''t dare, so she put the food box by the bed and said she wanted him to eat when he wanted to eat


    He suddenly turned back and walked to his bedroom, regardless of Lin Lang''s anxiety.


    When I walked in a hurry, it seemed that my legs and feet were more flexible and I didn''t wrestle anymore.


    He trotted to the bedroom in one breath and found that after only a while, all the dark grids in the room were pulled open, the cages were open, and the clothes were turned everywhere... Lin Lang was also startled and said repeatedly, "it''s not me. I''ve been with you... What about the maid? Is it her? " She knew it was a cloud and rain, but she had to leave herself alone and frame others.


    Ignoring the others, he ran straight to the bedside and saw the food box with the lid open


    Frustrated, he sat on the edge of the bed and rested for a while. He walked slowly to the cage, found the prince''s imperial dress he had worn countless times and put it on. He went to the cage and searched for a while to find a red gold hair crown. He sat in front of the mirror and whispered, "lang''er, thank you for giving me the last ride. Come and tie my hair in a bun. "


    Lin Lang was shocked and stunned. She didn''t think she was facing his death ambition.


    She came all the way and knew that the collapse of the country must be a heavy blow to him, but history could not be changed. All she could do was to save his life and take him away.


    She never thought that he would, would not, go with her.


    She underestimated men''s loyalty and attachment to their home country.


    She suddenly questioned whether she had done wrong in front of her? You shouldn''t tell him the truth frankly. He lived alone in this other palace with his maidservant. No one informed him, and no one spoke to him. Jing Yu should be to isolate him from the world, recuperate well and leave a trace of blood for Zisang''s royal family. Their arrival, but completely self defeating?


    She walked behind him, looked at him in bright yellow clothes, and looked at herself with a smile from the fuzzy copper mirror.


    As soon as her nose was sour, she burst into tears.


    "Give her the comb," said Cui Jiu softly


    She combed his hair shakily and cried, "I can''t comb it. I''ve never combed a man''s hair!"


    He gently taught her, "you little fool. You straighten out your hair first, then grab it and fix it to the top of your hair... Try harder, it''s too light... Yes, but it''s a little left... I''m the Grand Prince, how can I be disheveled... No, no, it''s right... "


    Lin Lang threw away his comb, hugged his shoulder from behind and cried, "no, I can''t let you die! I won''t let you go... "


    Cui Jiu turned around, took her cheeks in his hands, wiped her tears with his thumb, gently kissed her lips and said, "lang''er, thank you. You let me have no regrets in this life and no longer need to live in doubt and guilt... You and your father and mother are a dead knot. I am incompetent and can''t untie your dead knot... We have to stay together in the next life... "


    At daybreak, the two of them went out of the other palace and came to the dilapidated gate in the east of the palace. Two columns of soldiers guarded solemnly. It was quiet all around.


    Their appearance suddenly attracted the attention of the soldiers.


    One of them shouted, "who are you?"


    Cui Jiu first saw the broken palace wall and stayed for a moment. After hearing the sound, he returned to his mind, shook Lin Lang''s hand and said gently, "lang''er, you don''t need to accompany me. You go quickly. "


    Lin Lang''s tears will come out again. She didn''t come to accompany him to death, nor did she come to send him to death. Why did this happen?


    The leading soldier was about to come, but a herald sounded in the palace. He hesitated, went back to the queue and knelt down neatly together.


    Cui Jiu urged her repeatedly, "go, go. In the next life, I will find you. "


    He knew she wouldn''t die with him. Didn''t he even say "you have to live strong"? Lin Lang didn''t know whether to complain or hate.


    After a while, the sound of horses'' hoofs came from the palace.


    Soon, several figures appeared at the gate of the palace, led by Jing Yuan, followed by Zi Ran.


    When Cui Jiu saw it, he flew straight up and slapped him with his bare hands.


    Jing Yuan reacted quickly and hit him in the face with a whip.


    Cui Jiu was beaten for thirty days because of the drunkenness incident, and then rested for more than ten days. How can his physical strength compare with Jing Yuan? But after three rounds, he was defeated and knelt on the ground.


    Lin Lang stood not far away.


    Jing Yuan looked at two people standing and kneeling and asked strangely, "what''s going on?"


    Cui Jiufu went down, "Your Majesty, the sinner tried his best. The sin minister is late. Please let the sin minister die together with my father and mother. "


    Jing Yuan looked at Lin Lang in surprise. Lin Lang turned away with tears.


    Jing Yuan''s heart is like an arrow, and he doesn''t say much anymore. He orders Bai Zhong behind him to "send orders to shut Jing Huang into the prison, and then send them to Kyoto to listen to Hou''s fall."


    "Yes."


    Soon, soldiers took Cui Jiu away.


    Lin Lang stood where he was and watched it for a long time. She suddenly remembered something. She was about to enter the palace, but she was blocked by soldiers.


    She thought of the dark pile left by Wang Qi for her, turned and walked towards the east street where people had begun to haunt quietly.


    The king of Zisang, Jing Yu, is in prison with his uncles and nephews, and there are several officials who would rather die than surrender.


    He recalled that Jing Yuan, the monarch of the Wuliang state, broke into the conference hall with lightning speed. All the people are split, because it has been less than two hours since they learned that the Wuliang army began to attack the city. The city defense and palace defense are all broken!


    "When you are born, you will surrender, and when you die, you will resist. Life or death, I will give you a pillar of incense and time to choose. "


    After entering the hall, Jing Yuan said nothing but this. With only a few words, he subdued the courtiers who had originally advocated defection. Subsequently, Jing Yuan announced: "Zisang state is extinct. From today on, it has become a county of Wuliang state, and the name is to be determined. The army has Bai Zhong and Wen Youjing Hua. All military and political affairs should be reported to them. I''ll discuss it later! "


    Then he left.


    Its speed is amazing.


    Other officials who would rather die than surrender, as well as Royal relatives, were all captured in prison.


    Therefore, he would hear the sound of the prison door opening every few minutes, and knew that another relative''s blood had been searched and sent in. He couldn''t bear to look closely, so he had to turn his back to the door.


    At the same time, the iron door was opened without a cry. At the same time, he didn''t push his eyes. At the same time, he didn''t cry.

 Chapter 187

    He suddenly turned around and saw that the son he once liked and trusted was escorted in by two soldiers in the clothes of the crown prince of Ming and Huang.


    He immediately stood up, holding the cold bronze gate in his hands, with white joints.


    Cui Jiu, no, Jing Huang walked into the cell with a smile.


    When he came to Jing Yu, he knelt down and kowtowed to him three times. "Father, my son and minister are late. Please forgive me, father. "


    Jing Jin couldn''t help crying. He set such a big game that people all over the world thought his son had been abandoned and completely lost his sacred heart. Only then could he hide his son in a different palace that even the people beside his pillow didn''t know. But I don''t know that he just wants to leave a drop of blood for himself. In private, he hopes his son will live well; Yu Gong, he hopes that the existence of his son can leave a loyal object for those who are loyal to him.


    Originally, he was secretly glad that he had left a move of chess, but he didn''t know that it was only for more than an hour that his son, who placed his greatest hope, appeared in front of him.


    Seeing that he was dressed in the prince''s bright clothes, he was afraid that he knew his intentions.


    But


    This is the last outcome he wants to see.


    He closed his eyes, leaned down and helped Jing Huang up with his own hands: "good boy, why are you here?"


    Jing Huang said with a smile, "father, wrap up his body, open up the land in Xinjiang, guard his home and defend the country, and bury loyal bones. The child has never been on the battlefield, and he is guilty for not opening up territory for Zisang. Now Zisang is about to destroy his country and his family. At least he should guard his family and defend his country and bury his loyal bones! How can a child steal a life alone? "


    An old man came to persuade him, still using the old title, "prince, now we all understand. At that time, the king deliberately arranged to pollute your reputation, damage your reputation and abolish your throne. In fact, it was all to protect your life in the end. Why are you so stupid that you came in by yourself... "


    Other uncles agreed and wiped their tears.


    Jing Yu asked anxiously, "how did you get here? Aren''t you recuperating in another palace? How do you know what''s going on outside? "


    He clearly evacuated everyone, and no one will inform him


    Jing Huang lowered his head somewhat embarrassed, "it''s Lin Lang..."


    At first hearing the name, Jing Yu beat her chest and feet, "it''s her again! It''s this witch again! God... What a death! I''m purple mulberry! "


    He fainted without raising his breath.


    Jing Huang was frightened. He slowly sat down with his father in his arms and looked sadly at others holding out their fingers to his father.


    He didn''t know why his father had such a prejudice against Lin Lang that he was so angry when he asked his father to marry Lin Lang that day


    The old man who spoke in front also accused, "huang''er, uncle always thinks you have been very clever since childhood. You are faster than ordinary people in both writing and martial arts. Perhaps this has developed your overconfident and headstrong personality. This woman is a demon. Everyone in purple mulberry knows. Why only you don''t believe it? "


    He turned to the man and asked, "Qin Bo, why do you only listen to the words of the Heavenly Master twenty years ago? If there are demon flowers, the world will move greatly. All these are just rumors. She is a weak girl. How can she make the world move? You didn''t contact her, of course you didn''t. But my nephew knew her well and knew what kind of person she was. She is full of compassion. Her Fulai Inn accommodates more than a dozen homeless teenagers. She... "


    Qin Bo interrupted him, "prince, do you know that it took Wuliang army a few days to break my Junyao city since entering this country?"


    Jing Huang hesitated and said, "I heard... It''s only more than 20 days?"


    Qin Bo nodded, "exactly. If someone told you a month ago that you could go south from zhaojialing, you could smash Junyao city and destroy Zisang country on the 20th. Can you believe it? Can you believe it? "


    Jing Huang shook his head, and others shook their heads one after another. One said, "originally, the troops of Wuliang and Zisang are equivalent. If the two armies fight each other, they will not be able to do it for a year and a half, countless deaths and injuries and countless money consumption."


    Qin Bo nodded again. "You saw the artillery fire this morning. This is all because with such a powerful weapon, bu Liang can break the city without a single soldier, which is frightening. And we, at such a distance, have no power to fight back. Can only be caught. If I say that this magic weapon is a miracle in the history of war, it will completely change the pattern of the five countries on Yanlong continent. Do you agree? "


    The crowd nodded, and someone echoed, "Qin Bo is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for more than 20 years. Naturally, he sees it more clearly than we do."


    Qin Bo stared at Jing Huang and said, "Your Highness, do you know who made this magic weapon?"


    Jing Huang only felt a cool air rising from under his feet. He thought of the witch discussed before. Looking at the strange thoughts she often had, he couldn''t help cooling his back with a cold sweat and stammered, "you, you won''t say..."


    Qin Bo was about to answer, but he heard a voice say, "yes, that''s the witch!"


    Jing Yu woke up and listened for a while. At this time, she could no longer resist her hatred and anger. She sat up, "I wanted to kill her twenty years ago. I only hate that I didn''t see the baby girl die with my own eyes! Just let her survive. For so many years, I have been tossing and turning every night. I am afraid that the Heavenly Master will make a prophecy and make it come true. Huang''er, my father wants to promise you his marriage. He wants you to marry the woman you love and spend your life with you. But why her! If it weren''t for her, why would Zisang have today? If it weren''t for her, how could you come here and lose your life for nothing? "


    Jing Huang burst into tears and knelt down again and knocked several times, "father! Please calm down. Lang Er came here today to save the child. It was when I heard that Junyao city was broken and my close relatives were jailed that I insisted on coming in, living or dying with Zisang and sharing fate with my close relatives. These are the child''s decisions. It has nothing to do with her. "


    Jing Yu was angry and said, "prince! You still don''t repent. Do you know you''re leading wolves into the house! That demon girl made a magic weapon to destroy our family and country. She sent a message to cut off my blood. Even if I was a ghost, I wouldn''t let her go! "


    Suddenly there was an angry cry from the next door, "shut up!"


    The sonorous and powerful female voice is buzzing in the four walls.


    Jing Huang was stunned and immediately kowtowed in the direction of the voice, "empress mother -"


    Cui Yan, the queen of Zisang, was silent for a moment and said in a deep voice, "son, now there is no mother, only the mother."


    Jing Huang called again, "mother - child is unfilial! It''s hard for you! " Everyone listened and was sad.


    Cui Yan said on the other side, "get up, too. In today''s situation, we all have a responsibility. Don''t blame yourself too much. "


    Jing Ying jumped up, "what responsibility do we have? It''s all the witch''s fault!"


    Cui Yan chuckled and asked, "does anyone know that on that day, the Heavenly Master''s prophecy had four sentences? How did he say it?"


    At first, some people talked, "there are four sentences? But I only know the two sentences'' there are demon flowers in the forehead, the world moves greatly '', and what are the other two? "


    "I don''t know."


    "It seems that there are four sentences, but the latter two are familiar, and the front one is forgotten."


    Qin Bo''s vigorous voice sounded, "Shenhuo Jifu, the sun and the moon rise; There are demon flowers on the forehead, and the world moves greatly. "


    Someone chewed, "divine fire must refer to this divine gun; Jifu refers to the arrow that is far beyond the range. The rise of the sun and the moon should be a change of dynasty. Its female forehead has demon flowers, and the world has begun to move. The Heavenly Master is a man of God! "


    Cui Yan''s voice rose again, "yes, these four sentences. However, the rising of the sun and the rising of the moon does not necessarily mean that I am in the purple mulberry kingdom; The world moves greatly, and I am not bound to die. If at the beginning, we would treat the baby girl well; Even two months ago, we agreed to huang''er''s request to marry her. I don''t know who''s in charge of this divine fire dustpan... "Ten thousand Susu are quiet.


    Everyone was lost in thought


    Everyone thought of this possibility - if she hadn''t been assassinated by Zisang for 20 years... If the crown prince married her as the Crown Princess... If she made this magic weapon for Zisang


    She sighed, "in fact, God has given purple mulberry too many opportunities..."


    Yes, God gave Zisang so many opportunities to be born in Zisang. Even if she was assassinated at birth, it took 20 years... Besides, the crown prince and she were in love


    The queen opened her mouth again at the right time, "so let''s not blame others or ourselves. All variables are just historical choices. "


    Everyone sighed and regretted


    Jing Yu asked Jing Huang quietly, "what about the things in the food box?"


    Jing Huang shook his head, "when the child understood, it was too late..."


    Jing Yu sat down dejectedly.


    After a while, another female voice whispered in the next room, "queen, where is the zhenhun jade you have worn for many years?"


    "When is it, what jade..." the voice gradually lowered... Until it was silent


    A few days later, Jing Yu, the former monarch of Zisang, handed out a surrender form to the state of Wuliang from his prison, wishing that all the huge wealth hidden in the counties and counties south of Zisang in the former dynasty would be enshrined without privacy; But ask the collateral blood relatives to preserve their lives and keep them in Zisang; Close relatives'' blood, listen to the disposal.


    There was an uproar.


    In fact, the voice of uproar gets up early.


    The kings of the other three countries can receive the battle report of Zisang every day, first incredible, then frightened. Finally, I heard that the state of Zisang was destroyed, and the monarch wrote down the table in calligraphy. I also heard that Zisang Nanjun had hidden the treasures of the previous dynasty. I felt a little relieved and thought Zisang was guilty.


    The datan state, which was originally located in the war zone to the north of betanliang, engraved a peace book to betanliang and was willing to cede the five counties bordering betanliang to the south of the betanliang mountain range, so that the two countries suspended their troops.


    In fact, Jing is really bitter. First, the queen pointed out the wrong decision she made 20 years ago, and was asked by the state of Wuliang to present the treasures of the previous dynasty. In fact, he was wronged to death. He had no idea that there were treasures of the previous dynasty buried in his own territory. There were treasures in the previous dynasty, which are well known all over the world. There are also maps, which are well known all over the world. But people in the world don''t know that the treasure actually sits in Zisang state. He didn''t know that if he knew, he would have dug it out earlier to strengthen the army and enrich the people?

 Chapter 188

    It is not just Da Tan who is eager to suspend the army.


    Jing Yuan, who hurried back to Beijing, was also very eager to suspend the army.


    Zi Ran can''t understand it.


    Since the king entered Zisang palace, he said nothing except those words in the hall. Then he saw that Jing Hua hurriedly handed him a small cloth bag, and then the Lord lost a sentence, "I''ll give it to you here." Then he hurried back to Kyoto, even the 80000 Sergeant


    If Bai Zhong has a different heart, with the 80000 men and horses and the 11 cannons


    How did that happen?


    Just think about it and he''ll be in a cold sweat.


    But the Lord is like nobody. While on the way, he handles the official documents delivered every day.


    Between clouds and rain, since Cui Jiu found the second seal of the son of heaven in the food box of the other palace where he rested, he kept following the Lord. The Lord also said that there is no need to "protect" Miss Lin Lang.


    What they don''t know is that Jing Yuan is already worried.


    At first, when he learned that Xi''er was pregnant, no one could tell his ecstasy.


    But when the letter reported to him all the actions after Zhuo Xi woke up, his heart sank day by day. He also wished very much what had happened.


    After Zhuo Xi fell into a coma that day, he went to the wind garden to learn about the situation from Chu Bo. There were no details beyond his cognitive range. What was it for? Is there something you don''t know about?


    For seven days he held her in a coma, no one knew the fear and fear in his heart. Especially when he heard her vaguely ask herself, who are you? Wolf? At that moment, he was almost out of his wits.


    He always knew that she was neither Wu Yuan nor anyone. She was Zhuo Xi. She told him from the beginning that she was zhuoxi.


    He thought she was leaving and went back to find the wolf. Well, he admitted that her departure was the same as her going to find the wolf, which made him afraid and afraid.


    At that time, he remembered that there was a zhenhun jade in the world. His grandfather had seen it on the former Heavenly Master of Yudian country. Later, the Heavenly Master disappeared with the division of the state of Yudian, but it was heard that his successor was a Heavenly Master in the state of Zisang. Without saying a word, he went to donglanbie palace the next day to find Jing Hua.


    Jing Hua has been fidgeting since Zhuo Xi ordered him to wait quietly in other palaces that day. She wants to be invisible and fly to the place where the treasure is hidden immediately. As soon as the king came up, he knew that it must have something to do with the treasure.


    They talked in secret for half a day, agreed on the attack plan, and went separately to prepare.


    According to the plan, Jing Hua went to Liangzhou first to gather an army. Jing Hua spent some time in Liangzhou and knew the generals there very well.


    Jing Yuan, on the other hand, first asked Yu Po to speed up his horse to send 800 Li in a hurry, exaggerating the grain robbery and murder in Liangzhou. Then he sent Jiang Yuan, who was studying shell firing technology in cangcui mountain, to have good news. He immediately announced in the court that he wanted to drive a personal expedition to scare the old people, so that they wouldn''t often talk about their little wife.


    That day, Lin Langyi said that his little wife had a nickname called Xiao San. She was definitely a fox who ruined people''s marriage. She was despised by thousands of people. Fortunately, she sternly rejected those old proposals last time. That''s it. She also made Xi''er unconscious for 17 days. If you really have three wives and four concubines, don''t you really want to leave yourself that night?


    But it''s really sad to think of Xi''er waking up


    Touching zhenhun jade on his chest, he couldn''t help waving two more whips and speeding up his speed.


    No one knows the real reason why he killed Zisang country in more than 20 days


    Since she became pregnant, Zhuo Xi was surprised to find that her insomnia had completely disappeared. It is no longer difficult to go to sleep, and it is no longer difficult to wake up in the middle of the night. Often sleep until dawn, sometimes stay in bed for a while, and get up half an hour later than usual.


    Fortunately, the six palaces knew that she was pregnant. Xiao soul also consciously delayed the time arrangement, and the processing time of single things was also consciously shortened, which made her a lot easier.


    On this day, Zhuo Xi woke up and felt that she had slept surprisingly well the night before.


    It is the end of September. The autumn wind rises suddenly, and the second half of the night is always slightly cool. But I felt very warm and comfortable all night last night.


    She remembered the scene of going to Xiyan Yangsheng hall with the Empress Dowager yesterday.


    Yesterday was muxiu. Originally, she was going to Xiyan Yangsheng hall alone, because she received a letter from Fengxin a few days ago, saying that she had a daughter safely. She was very happy and kept thinking about where to find a gift for her. I also remembered that I didn''t go to Xiyan Yangsheng hall for a while. I wonder if there are any newly developed infant toys to find for her. So I let the Spring Festival Gala arrange.


    When the Empress Dowager asked for peace early in the morning, seeing that she was in a very good mood, he told her his plan. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager''s interest was so high that she didn''t even want to play mahjong in the afternoon. She said she had to experience it and see if she could maintain her cheeky appearance like Luo Yuan.


    Zhuo Xi heard it, and it was a good idea. In her opinion, the Empress Dowager is only 50 years old, which is the time to maintain and enjoy. After lunch and a short rest, they simply took mammy Su and chunnuan out of the door.


    Chunnuan girl knows some Kung Fu. Zhuo Xi knows that there are flowers in the dark, so she doesn''t worry very much.


    Several people drove easily to the front door of Xiyan Yangsheng hall.


    Ke min got the news long ago and immediately greeted them and gave them a gift.


    As soon as Zhuo Xi stepped into the door of the health care hall, a small figure rushed up, "godmother, godmother" shouted. It turned out to be Ke min''s son Dabao, who is more than one year old and looks like powder carved jade.


    Ke min quickly pulled her off Zhuo Xi, "be careful not to bump into the godmother. Your godmother has a little brother in her stomach. "


    She said with a smile, "this boy has just learned to walk. Soon, he has to rush up and hug anyone."


    The Empress Dowager liked it very much. "Come, come, give grandma a hug..."


    Dabao immediately twisted out of his mother''s arms, rushed into the Empress Dowager''s arms and rubbed upward.


    Ke min was shocked and hurried forward. Zhuo Xi grabbed her. "It doesn''t matter. My mother-in-law is rarely happy to come out and make her happy."


    The Empress Dowager also said, "bao''er is very heavy! Master Keda, you are well fed! "


    Ke min was embarrassed and said, "I''ll make you laugh." He whispered again, "come down quickly, baby. Be careful, grandma is tired."


    The Empress Dowager took him in her arms, turned and walked in, "it''s not heavy, I''m stubborn, holding him."


    Mother Su followed with a smile.


    Outside is the service desk and waiting hall. People come and go, some noisy. Although Zhuo Xi and his wife were in civilian clothes, several of them had met at the Palace Banquet and communicated with each other from a distance. Their eyes were very uncertain.


    Zhuo Xi lowered her head and walked with the Empress Dowager through the outer room to the largest VIP room inside.


    Ke Min has reported some major projects to the Empress Dowager along the way. At the moment, when she got indoors, Ke min didn''t dare to tired the Empress Dowager any more. She quickly took bao''er down and let him play by himself.


    The Empress Dowager grabbed him, took off the peony carved jade pendant on her waist and handed it to him. She smiled and said, "I can''t prepare today, so I have to give a welcome gift at will. Do you like it? " The last one was about bao''er himself. Bao''er liked the jade very much when he saw that it was exquisitely carved and had a warm hand. He nodded and said "like" while smashing it underground.


    Ke min, sweating, reached over and grabbed the jade pendant. He whispered, "my little ancestor can''t smash everything!"


    She was sweating and thanked the empress dowager, "thank you for your reward. Bao''er has taken it for nothing. She has eyes and doesn''t know the real treasure! Please forgive me! "


    The Empress Dowager smiled, "how old is bao''er? If you can know Bao now, you won''t become a master when you grow up?"


    Ke min breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly called the maid who took care of bao''er and asked her to hold bao''er and go to other places to play.


    Zhuo Xi helped the Empress Dowager sit down on the soft sofa. The Empress Dowager leaned back, very soft and comfortable.


    Ke Min said quickly, "I''ll send for the doctor now."


    The Empress Dowager asked suspiciously, "what do you want the doctor to do?"


    Zhuo Xi took the tea brought by the girl and explained, "the doctor needs to feel the pulse and look at the pulse for everyone. He knows where the Qi is weak and where the fire is large and needs diarrhea, so he can tailor it as a method of health preservation."


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "I see."


    Soon Dr. Hong came in and was about to kneel down. The Empress Dowager was stunned and nodded at him, "feel free."


    Doctor Hong resisted the impulse to kneel down and had to bow to her deeply, "I''ve seen a noble man." He also bowed to Zhuo Xi, "I''ve seen you, madam."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "this is a talker. I know you are more valuable than me."


    The Empress Dowager also smiled, "don''t you accept those who speak again and have the ability?"


    Hong Quan was a little embarrassed. He sat down before the case, pushed the small pillow and asked, "you two, who will come first?"


    "Naturally, mother-in-law came first." Zhuo Xi helped the Empress Dowager to come forward, sat down in front of Dr. Hong, told her and stretched out her right hand.


    Doctor Hong gently put a piece of silk as thin as a cicada''s wing on the Empress Dowager''s wrist and focused on the pulse. Soon he took back his finger and said with a smile, "it''s OK for you, but there is some Yin deficiency and fire. The villain will tell the masseur to focus on purging and pushing from Hegu, Neiting and Taichong points, and then from Zhongwan to Qihai. In addition, there are some medicinal meals. " As he spoke, he quickly recorded his pulse on the paper.


    A masseur dressed as a nurse stood by, listening to Hong Quan''s requirements for meridians and acupoints, while taking notes on paper.


    Zhuo Xi picked up the Empress Dowager and took her to the inner room. She whispered a few words in her ear. The Empress Dowager turned red in the face.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly called mother Su again, whispered her request in her ear and asked her to go in and serve.


    The masseur also prepared essential oils, gloves and other items to be used and went to the small room.

 Chapter 189

    After Zhuo Xi arranged these, she sat down in front of Hong Quan and stretched out her right hand.


    Hong Quan concentrated and held his breath, but with a smile, "madam, don''t worry, the child is very good."


    Zhuo Xi was still worried, "Dr. Hong, if there is something wrong with the child, it will take a few months to diagnose it?"


    Doctor Hong asked in confusion, "madam, don''t worry. Well, why is there a problem with the child? If you feel abnormal, you can call the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment. "


    Zhuo Xi had to smile, "please. I don''t do meridian health today, just facial maintenance. You go and be busy. "


    Hong Quan stood up with a smile. He was about to salute and retreat, but he suddenly remembered something¡° Madam, recently, many babies have fever and come to the grass people with their mother for treatment. When the grass people saw that they were just fever, stomachache and anorexia, they gave them antipyretic and cool drugs. Somehow, some fever subsided, but others continued to fever. On the way home yesterday, Cao min found that there were long lines in front of several medical schools, and all the patients were children. "


    They often discuss some cases together. Hearing this, Zhuo Xi was a little vigilant and asked carefully, "what common symptoms do the children have?"


    "At first glance, it''s like being affected by wind heat, sore throat, fever, weariness, depression, etc."


    "What medicine did you use?"


    "Radix Isatidis, Radix Bupleuri and other drugs for sweating..."


    "Have those children who have not retreated come and see again?"


    He shook his head. "Originally, the grass people had a word with those ladies. This is not a medical school. I''m afraid there are some imperfections in the medicine. If it''s not good, please ask them to hire someone else."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "so good. This matter can''t be seen in a moment and a half. If you have further information, you''ll tell the palace. "


    "Yes. The grass-roots people will leave. " He saluted and walked out.


    Zhuo Xi looked worried.


    Chunnuan, who has been watching, is also worried about Zhongzhong. He came and asked in a low voice, "madam, what are you worried about?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head, suddenly remembered, and said, "go find Xiaoji and talk to them about the past. I''ll be there myself. "


    Chunnuan left happily.


    She sat down again for a moment, then got up and went out to Ke min to find a VIP room and make a simple facial dressing.


    At that time, she thought it was better to be in this era. There were no chemicals or extracts. All things were pure natural. She didn''t worry about the impact on the fetus.


    Just thinking of the baby, her sorrow came back


    It seems that yesterday I heard the Spring Festival Gala and Xiao soul biting their ears and saying that it was Zi Ran that they were coming back soon


    Those two smelly girls bite their ears so loudly that they''re afraid she can''t hear them?


    It was not until it was getting dark in the evening that mammy Su helped the Empress Dowager out of the small room in the VIP suite. Zhuo Xi, who had been waiting on the sofa, quickly stood up.


    The Empress Dowager''s eyes narrowed with laughter. "Xi''er, this place is really good... It''s comfortable all over with such a toss."


    Zhuo Xi looked at her face carefully, "I think your skin seems to shine again!"


    "Ouch? Really? " She touched her cheek and turned to ask mammy su.


    Mother Su said with a smile, "of course it''s true. It''s white and red, as if it''s ten years younger! "


    Ke min also got the news and rushed over. When she heard the speech, she smiled, "it''s good for the old lady to feel comfortable. It shows that today''s technique is quite pertinent. You can come and relax your muscles and bones every seven days. This person, as long as he is in good health and spirit, his skin naturally looks young! Also, this is a medicated diet prescription specially prepared for you. You can cook it as a snack every day. " For the food in the palace, she can only provide prescriptions, but can''t provide ingredients.


    Zhuo Xi motioned chunnuan to pick up the prescription held by the little girl behind Ke min, smiled and said, "it''s hard for manager Ke Da. It''s getting late. Let''s go back early. "


    The Empress Dowager woke up and asked, "what time is it?"


    Mother Su replied, "it''s almost the end of Shenshi."


    "So late? I''ve been in there for nearly two hours? "


    "Yes, you also dozed off inside. I''m afraid you''re going to sleep late tonight, so you can''t drink tea anymore..."


    "Mammy Su, I tell you, the masseur''s technique is really exquisite. Next time you try... "


    ¡­¡­


    The party talked and laughed and returned to the palace. It was already half past unitary time. Zhuo Xi didn''t toss about either. He directly had dinner with the Empress Dowager in Ci''an palace, then returned to Ning''an palace and fell asleep.


    It was already half hour when I woke up this morning. She stretched herself and thought to herself that it was really worth going to the Yangsheng hall yesterday. She finally slept on the most secure day in more than two months.


    The Spring Festival Gala served her to put on her coat and sit in front of the dressing table. Chunzao pulled her hair.


    Spring morning has always been very sweet. Today, I exclaimed, "madam, your skin today is really good. It can be broken by blowing bullets."


    She lazily raised her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror. The bronze mirror was yellow and fuzzy. She couldn''t see whether her skin had improved, but she saw a huge bloody jade under her neck.


    She looked at Chun Zao''s smiling face and said quietly, "take this blood jade down for the Palace first."


    Chunzao answered "yes" briskly and untied it on the back of her neck for a long time before taking down the flat blood jade and putting it in the palm of her hand.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the sudden jade pendant carefully. It was roughly oval. The upper part of one side near the hanging rope was a small concave flower. The shape of the flower looked familiar. The lower part is a wisp of empty blessing pattern. The back is smooth.


    Where did this jade pendant come from? Look at the look of early spring, I should not know. When I fell asleep last night, I didn''t have this jade... I thought of the dream I had yesterday... Isn''t it a dream?


    Chun Zao carefully wore a flowing cloud bun, inserted a hairpin, and helped her to the west room next door for breakfast.


    After eating, he rinsed his mouth again. She returned to the main hall and asked the Spring Festival Gala to call in all the palace maids and eunuchs on duty in Ning''an palace and close the door.


    Seeing that everyone had arrived, she asked in a deep voice, "who was on duty last night?"


    Seeing that the jade pendant on her chest was gone, the Spring Festival Gala vaguely knew that she was going to attack, so she knelt down in fear, "it''s a slave."


    She was the big maid of Ning''an palace. When she knelt down, the maid eunuch behind her knelt down. Although she didn''t know what had happened, she would never be wrong to admit her mistake first.


    Zhuo Xi saw her act like this and knew that she already knew the truth and didn''t say much, "tell me, when did he come?"


    At this question, the other eunuchs and maids raised their hearts high.


    The Spring Festival Gala said, "last night at the beginning of Shenshi."


    Zhuo Xi converted the time in her heart. It was more than three o''clock in the middle of the night. There was a heartache at the bottom of her heart, and she was pressed down again soon.


    The Spring Festival Gala continued, "the Lord returned to the palace at that time and immediately rushed to Ning''an palace. At the third quarter of Shenshi, he went back to Zichen hall. " It will be early in the morning after half of the application time


    It was said that the king, someone sneaked in in the middle of the night, and the maid on duty should die. The other eunuchs came in with a sigh of relief.


    But I heard the queen said in a deep voice, "it seems that your memory is not very good."


    All the people kneeling on the ground, with a slight chill on their backs, said in unison, "slaves and maidservants (just) dare not."


    It has been more than a month since that order. It''s ok if the king is not here. Now that the king is back, can he really stop him from entering Ning''an palace? Who is not afraid of death dare to stop?


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "in fact, the Palace should think that you are the old man in Ziyang palace after all..."


    In fact, when she and Jing Yuan sang together, she really didn''t care whether it was his people or her own people. Anyway, there was no difference between being loyal to him and being loyal to herself. On the contrary, if he is an old man, he can use it more confidently.


    But now with care in my heart, it is impossible to tolerate such things happening again and again


    As expected, the Spring Festival Gala was stunned. She knelt and walked forward for two steps, and kowtowed to her head, "madam, I just hope you can get better." She killed all the people who came out of Ziyang palace with one pole... She was nervous and some words were unscrupulous.


    "Get better?" Zhuo Xi stared at her and asked, "do you mean that this palace is ill? Is it abnormal? "


    "No, no, no, it''s the maid who said the wrong thing. I hope you and the king can make up as before... "


    "Make up?" Zhuo Xi sneered and asked, did they quarrel? How can we make up without quarreling?


    She said coldly, "it''s a crime to speculate on your meaning! I think you are faithful. Go back to your Lord! This palace can''t use such a loyal person! " She deliberately bit the word "loyalty".


    A fierce momentum came to my face.


    All the maids and eunuchs were lying on the ground and dared not move.


    Zhuo Xi''s face was heavy and said to the Spring Festival Gala, "today, go to Zichen hall to be on duty."


    The Spring Festival Gala was shocked, "madam, don''t drive the slaves away..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "you are loyal to the king. If he doesn''t know, won''t he waste your loyalty in vain?"


    The Spring Festival Gala burst into tears, "empress..."


    Her face was as gray as death. After a long time, she got up, knocked her head three times, choked and said, "maidservant, thank you for your kindness. Mother, please take care of the Phoenix body. "


    She stumbled to the door and opened the heavy gate of Ning''an palace. Her feet were too heavy to lift. She fell on the high threshold, got up and used her hands and feet together. Then she went out of the door and closed the gate with a "squeak".


    Zhuo Xi looked at the two rows of people kneeling in front of him and asked, "who else has a bad memory and needs to go to Zichen hall to show his loyalty?"


    Everyone leaned down and dared not move.


    "Anyone who doesn''t remember can bring it up now. The palace will forgive her / him for his innocence. But if someone does something that doesn''t last long after this moment, don''t blame the palace for being cruel! "


    All the people answered, "I dare not."


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand with a little satisfaction, "go out and be on duty."


    All the people went down at sixes and sevens in their hearts, and each one was bitter.

 Chapter 190

    Xiao soul came in and looked at these people with sad faces. He was surprised and asked with a smile, "madam, but what happened? Why do they all look like they owe a lot of money? "


    She just saw the Spring Festival Gala walking to the rest room in a dejected way. What happened?


    Zhuo Xi looked at her for a long time and suddenly asked, "if your master and I fell into the water at the same time, which would you save first?"


    Xiao Hun was stunned for a moment and immediately asked with a smile, "aren''t you my master? You mean you and the king fell in at the same time? "


    Zhuo Xi''s face was slightly Ji and nodded slightly.


    Xiao soul still smiled, "nature saves you first."


    She was happy, but she heard her say, "the king''s underwater Kung Fu is good. He can''t drown."


    Zhuo Xi said angrily, "the king is back. What are you going to do?"


    Xiao soul was surprised and pointed to his nose, "lower officer? When the king comes back, close the officer. What''s the matter? " It''s not her who is angry with him


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, glanced at the door and said, "he was released in the Spring Festival Gala last night. Do you want to drive Hua Yan to Zichen hall?"


    Xiao soul looked around, touched his nose and whispered, "I don''t know if Hua Yan went to bed last night? She''s been mildewed with leisure recently. She''s sleeping all day... "


    The voice was still fading, and a figure appeared in front of them.


    Hua Yan knelt on the ground and arched her hands and said, "queen, Lord Xiao is right. My subordinates slept in the house last night and were on duty in the daytime." At this critical moment, we must not admit it. What happened last night must have nothing to do with her.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her. The flower had been hidden in the dark. She didn''t know when it was on duty. She really had nothing to say. She thought for a while and said, "well, I can''t blame you. You will write a written report on your duty period and submit it to this house. " It''s written in black and white. It''s up to her to argue.


    Hua Yan stopped talking for a while, lowered his shoulder and returned to a "promise."


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand and knew there was no way to take them. Even if she changed one, it was still the same. Hua Yan disappeared with another swish.


    Xiao soul looked at the situation. There was nothing else, so he opened his notebook and began to report today''s work arrangement.


    Ke min sent a complete set of music enlightenment infant products, including bell, music box, bell, tambourine, horn, xylophone


    Zhuo Xi looked. The color was bright and the voice was pleasant. She nodded with satisfaction and asked Xiao soul to pack her letter and these toys and send them to Feng Xin.


    Thinking of the once dark Wei room... Zhuo Xi also had a narrow mind and asked, "is Zi ran back? Has he received the news that you want to choose a son-in-law? "


    Xiao soul covered his face, avoided talking, looked at the missing carving, and quickly reminded, "Mrs. Botai and Mrs. Pingyang are coming soon."


    Zhuo Xi was immediately happy. Mrs. Tai had always been very kind to her, and she was also very worried. Liu Shi is his nominal mother. Although sometimes there are greed of some small families, he still looks good after beating himself. Although this person has brought her a little warmth, she still cherishes her family.


    Sure enough, after a while, two people came in and bowed down at the door. "My old body (concubine) sends greetings to the queen. My mother is blessed."


    Zhuo Xi quickly got off her seat and went to help the old lady herself. "Grandma and mother, get up quickly. Don''t be polite."


    They thanked their mother.


    Zhuo Xi ordered someone to give him tea.


    Liu took a tray and said, "thanks to your mother''s blessing, now jiao''er and ru''er''s marriage have been settled. This is a small purse made by their sisters for their mother. They also made some shoes and socks for the little prince in her belly. Please don''t dislike it. "


    In fact, she never wore her purse. She just thought that they were intentional after all. It was not good to brush their kindness, so she motioned to the Spring Festival Gala to accept it.


    She smiled and asked, "the marriage between the third sister and the fifth sister..."


    Liu immediately burst into a smile, "jiao''er promised Chang''an Bo''s son. It was a small decision two days ago. The wedding is scheduled for May next year. Ru''er also met the second son of Qingyuan Bo di. Yesterday, Qingyuan Bo''s house invited Mrs. Gongsun as a matchmaker to propose marriage. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "Mrs. Gongsun? Mrs. gongsunli? " She knows that Gongsun Li is young and promising and will be reused in the future.


    Liu nodded and narrowed her eyes. "Yes, I only saw Mrs. Gongsun once at the Palace Banquet in previous years. I didn''t expect that Mrs. Qingyuan and she were best friends, so I invited her as a matchmaker. Last month, the wife of the eldest son of Chang''an invited General Wang''s wife to propose marriage. She said she specially invited Zhan Houzhong to look at the eight characters of the two children. It''s a match made in heaven. "


    She looked at the queen with awe and a little temptation. Over the past few months, she obviously felt that the imperial concubine circle showed signs of handing her olive branches, but she didn''t act rashly after being awakened by the queen last time. The two families took the initiative to propose marriage to the Wu family, which was really beyond their expectation. I just don''t know if it''s the message from the queen?


    Zhuo Xi smiled and was not keen to talk about the relationship between these people, but asked, "mother, I''ve been walking much with these uncles and ladies recently."


    Liu hurriedly and carefully replied, "my body is busy preparing the marriage between jiao''er and ru''er recently. I don''t have any leisure to know those ladies."


    Zhuo Xi smiled with satisfaction, "Chang''an Bo''s house and Qingyuan Bo''s house are honest and reliable people. You can walk more when you become in laws in the future. It''s said that Mrs. Chang''an is really good at playing mahjong... "Jing Yuan mentioned last time that if you want to appease these two ladies, you can''t give them too much cold shoulder.


    Liu immediately understood and said with a smile, "in laws naturally have to move more. I don''t know how to play mahjong, but I have the opportunity to ask my mother for advice... "I heard that mahjong was the Queen''s idea, and now it is popular in Kyoto... Many ladies invited her to play mahjong, but now she doesn''t dare to act rashly. Zhuo Xi knew that she should have solved her ban, so she was overjoyed.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said to Liu, "it''s not necessary to ask for advice. You and grandma can open it to relieve boredom on weekdays. If you want to learn, just let the little girl around the palace show it. "


    The old lady was only happy and laughed, "well, I have another thing to relieve boredom!"


    Zhuo Xi asked about Wu Xing and Wu Yuan''s marriage again, "can mother have a suitable candidate for the wedding of eldest brother and second brother?"


    Liu glanced at the old lady. After Zhuo Xi beat her last time, she didn''t dare to mention it without authorization, but she secretly measured several candidates. Seeing that the old lady didn''t show any disapproval, she boldly and carefully said, "Xinger has practiced martial arts since childhood and joined the army since childhood. My concubine was mainly selected for him from the scholar family, and we don''t dare to think about her, He chose the eldest daughter of Xie Lang, a meritorious Cao of Nanyang mansion. I don''t know your mother, but have you heard of the Xie family in Nanyang? " The so-called raising her head to marry her daughter and lowering her head to marry her daughter-in-law, she did not dare to pick it up.


    Zhuo Xi searched in her mind for a moment, but she didn''t really have an impression, so she asked, "mother just liked her, or has she sent someone to deliver it?"


    Liu Shi saw that her face was not worried. He secretly congratulated himself that he had not acted rashly. He hurriedly said, "no, no, I just collected the name and family background of the school-age woman through acquaintances, measured it secretly, and did nothing else."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "brother is now the commander of Jin Yuwei. Although he is a six life official, brother is the eldest son. I''m afraid he will attack the Lord in the future. My sister-in-law may want to take charge of the Zhongfu in the future. The meaning of this palace is that it''s better to have a legitimate daughter of someone else in Beijing. " General officials have completely different ways of raising their legitimate daughters. Most of their legitimate daughters want to be the head mother in the future, so they naturally have very different experience.


    Liu''s face changed greatly when she heard that the Wu family had no legitimate son, which was a pain in her heart. However, she was less than 40 this year. She was thinking that she might have an old son. In the past, the Wu family had no uncle, and naturally did not ask for the Title of Prince Xi. Now the Wu family has occupied the Queen''s light and got the title of Uncle Pingyang, so the matter of Prince Xi naturally comes to the fore. When the queen said this, she obviously didn''t consider the possibility that she might have a legitimate son at all... Thinking of Wu Zhilian, she reluctantly smiled and said, "what the queen said is very true..."


    Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly said, "we really don''t think about it well. We have only moved to Kyoto for a few years. Our foundation is unstable and we don''t know many people. Why don''t you ask the queen to help you choose? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t want to interfere in the marriage of the Wu family''s son, but seeing that Liu acted so recklessly, she had to nod her head and comfort Liu, "mother, how old is the common eldest daughter of the Xie family in Nanyang? The palace looks neat with the second brother. The second brother works in Ruyang and is not far from Nanyang house. "


    Liu looked better and said, "your eldest brother and second brother were less than two years old. Xie''s parents'' daughter is only twelve this year, and she will have hairpins next year. It would be good if she could match her children."


    But she suddenly remembered something and stopped talking.


    When she saw Liu''s desire to stop talking, she smiled and asked, "what else does mother want to ask?"


    Liu quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "jiao''er and ru''er have been learning rules at home recently. They are a little bored. Today, I heard that my mother and I came to say hello to my mother, so I also wanted to go to the palace to say hello to my mother. Right now, I''m waiting in the hospital... "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. She didn''t expect the two sisters to come too. "Since it''s so, don''t you hurry to pass them in?" The spring warmth on one side answered.


    The old lady kept looking at the queen and smiling.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help stroking her cheek. "Grandma has been staring at this palace, but there are flowers on this palace''s face?"


    The old lady burst out laughing, "my mother is still so funny. I''ve been thinking that our little six is really blessed. Now I''m pregnant again. How are you? How did you eat? "


    Zhuo Xi sighed in her heart. I still miss her in my heart. Unlike my mother, she kept talking about the marriage of her two daughters


    She nodded to the old lady. "It''s nothing, just sleepy all day."


    The old lady smiled and said, "it''s a blessing to be able to sleep and eat! Unlike Ying Niang, she can''t eat or sleep when she is pregnant with zhuo''er. She has been thin for three months. " She gave Liu a look.


    Liu hurriedly woke up and quickly imparted experience, "it''s not! Madam, in the first three months, you should avoid cold things. You''d better eat more refined food than wine... "


    Just then, chunnuan led Wu Jiao and Wu Ru in. They knelt down in good order and gave Zhuo Xi a big gift, saying "the Queen''s mother, Jin''an."


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly called for a seat, "third sister and fifth sister, you haven''t wanted to come into the palace to see the palace for a long time, but you''re still complaining that the palace has ruined your good deeds?" She looked at the two beautiful girls in front of her with a narrow face.


    Wu Ru was nothing, but Wu Jiao immediately turned red. At the beginning, she was determined to enter the palace. Later, she was "sick" and missed her visit to the palace. She blamed her mother for a long time. She also blamed the sixth sister for being nosy, and even didn''t attend her marriage. After so many things happened, she was only lucky. Now we have settled on such a good marriage as the son of Chang''an Bo. Where can we not understand the intention of mother and six younger sisters?


    She stood up from her seat with a red face and knelt down and kowtowed. "My mother has a good heart. I shouldn''t have misunderstood my mother. The last time my grandmother and my mother went to the palace, my daughter wanted to go to the palace with her five younger sisters to see her mother. She was afraid of being blamed by her mother, so she didn''t dare to come... "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said to the old lady, "grandma, you see, the third sister is afraid that the palace can remember her little revenge!"


    The old lady laughed and scolded her, "it''s her own sister. How can there be overnight revenge? When you are a queen, your mother is as mean as you! Don''t get up quickly, so as not to make a fool of yourself... Besides, the queen is not all for your good! " If they had changed the past, they would not have dared to think about the aristocratic son of the Bo family and the wife of the second son.


    Wu Jiao blushed, bowed her head and sat back in her seat. Wu Ru also blushed.


    Zhuo Xi seldom saw them so shy, so she couldn''t help joking, "Oh, it''s really different for her husband''s family... She blushes to the root of her neck..."


    Wu Jiao looked up and said angrily, "Grandma! Look at her. She made fun of me and my third sister when she got married by herself... "


    Ha ha ha


    Everyone laughed.


    There was laughter in the main hall of Ning''an palace.


    The purple Chen hall is a melancholy cloud.

 Chapter 191

    Finally, he came down from the political discussion hall and returned to the upper study. He was ready to take a break and drove Jing Yuan of Ning''an palace. He learned the reason why he was sent to work in the Spring Festival Gala. His face sank immediately. He knew the injunction of Ning''an palace a month ago. At that time, he was not in the palace, and no one implemented or stopped him. Everyone thought that the queen was just talking.


    Last night he really came back too late and really missed her. He couldn''t help but go over and sleep with her for a while.


    At present, it''s not so easy for him to enter Ning''an palace again


    He just thought and waved his big hand, and the Spring Festival Gala became the head palace maid of Zichen hall.


    All eunuchs working outside the study in Zichen hall were surprised, because they all knew that the new king never wanted palace maids to serve closely. All personal affairs except the queen were eunuchs.


    Only the old God of Wuhe was there. He smiled and congratulated the Spring Festival Gala. At the same time, he ordered the little eunuch to take her down to get the match card from the head aunt.


    The Spring Festival Gala did not dare to go, but flopped down and knelt on the ground with a look of embarrassment. "My Lord, if the queen knows, I''m afraid it will be faster... I''d better ask the Lord to take back her order!"


    Jing Yuan smelled the speech but said, "just say this to you, so you can go with him."


    Jing Yuan sank his face.


    The five rivers dare not go out.


    No one dares to enter the study. But generally, Zi Ran would cry at the king''s side. How come there was no one today... Wuhe kept muttering in his heart


    Jing Yuan suddenly asked, "Wuhe, what kind of person is the queen in your eyes?"


    Five big drops of sweat fell down and said with a bitter face, "king, slave, slave has served you for months. I don''t even know you well. How can I know what kind of person the queen is? "


    He raised his eyes and glanced at the king. His face was gloomy. As soon as his eyes turned, he hurriedly said, "the servant looked at it. The Queen''s mother was dignified and generous and had a degree of hesitation..."


    "There is a degree of advance and retreat..." Jing Yuan looked up and asked him, "what did you just say in the Spring Festival Gala? The queen is meeting Mrs. Botai and Mrs. Pingyang? "


    The five rivers smiled and nodded, "exactly."


    Jing Yuan immediately stood up, straightened his clothes and showed a smile on his face, "since grandma and mother-in-law are coming, I have to go to see them, don''t I?"


    Wuhe hurriedly flattered, "the king said very well..."


    Jing Yuanzhi got out of the car and headed for Ning''an palace.


    At the gate of Ning''an palace, Wuhe was whipped all the way, and sent someone to report in front of Ning''an palace.


    When they arrived at the door, Wuhe was about to shout "the king arrived -" when he found that there was no movement in front of Ning''an palace.


    He couldn''t help looking at Jing Yuan on the Luan sedan chair and wiping the cold sweat on his forehead. He still hardened his head and shouted at the thick Palace door, "the king is coming." he shouted again, but there was no movement. He trembled and shouted for the second time.


    In the past, when serving the former king, which one didn''t open the door to welcome Shengjia? He shouted at the palace gate twice, but there was no movement. It was the first time he met


    A little eunuch next to him came forward and shouted, "who''s on duty today! Are you deaf? " Then he went up and knocked on the door in a low voice, "which brother and sister came out to answer?"


    A voice trembled and said, "please forgive me, your servant really doesn''t dare to make your mother angry again!"


    Jing Yuan raised his eyebrows. The maid in waiting is clever.


    The little eunuch immediately drank: "Spring Blue! I can hear you! If you don''t open the door quickly, Shengjia is here. Do you dare to resist the order? "


    There''s no sound inside


    Seeing that intimidation was useless, the little eunuch begged, "sister Chunlan, the king said, don''t open the door, just pass something to your mother. Open the door first. "


    There was a moment of silence inside, but a crack in the door opened slowly. One hand out.


    The little eunuch didn''t dare to drag her, but he pushed the door inward, and a pretty face appeared.


    As soon as the maidservant named Chunlan saw the king in front of her, she was so frightened that she turned pale that she couldn''t close the door and fell on her knees with a plop.


    Jing Yuan looked at the scene in front of him with a heavy face, and his anger rose from the bottom of his heart.


    He jumped out of the Luan sedan chair, strode to open the door and walked in. He wants to see who really dares to stop him?!


    Three steps and two steps, he came to the closed door of the main hall.


    Chun Lan hurried to the front, but thought and bit his teeth. He had to stop his arm, but he turned in a direction and pushed the door of the main hall inward.


    The five rivers shouted behind them, "the king has arrived -"


    The people inside stood up and knelt on the ground.


    Only Zhuo Xi sat in the chair and didn''t look at him.


    His lungs are going to explode.


    Chunnuan was rushed to Zichen palace, which was clearly beating him in the face. Wuhe said she was "moderate in advance and retreat". He thought that she would give herself two thin noodles in front of her mother''s family. What''s going on now? I wish everyone in the world knew that they were unhappy? It''s said that the couple quarreled at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. It''s been so long. The point is, he doesn''t know what the problem is? He took zhenhun Xueyu from afar and surprised her, so he ignored her?


    Although she was so angry, she had to give her face in front of her mother''s family. She pressed down her anger and said in a warm voice, "grandmother, mother-in-law and two sisters, please get up quickly."


    They knocked their heads on the ground and didn''t see Zhuo Xi''s face, so they didn''t know what had happened between them. The old lady got up and greeted him with a smile. "You''ve been married for several months. It''s my first time to greet the king today. It''s rude of me. "


    Jing Yuan hurriedly said, "it''s my son-in-law''s faux pas. It should be the son-in-law who comes to visit his grandmother and mother. But recently, a series of great events have happened in the palace. My son-in-law remembered it today. He even forgot to go back to the door that day... "


    Liu is the mistress of the Wu family. Hearing this, he quickly said, "Your Majesty is kind. It was an eventful autumn in the palace a few months ago. You can take good care of the queen in your busy schedule. Now the queen is pregnant again. It''s really a blessing for the Wu family and the world... "


    Troubled times - that means the national funeral... Taking care of pregnancy


    The old lady couldn''t help sweating. She looked at her and said with a smile, "Ann, please. Now I''m relieved to see the queen eating and sleeping soundly. The days ahead are still long. Today I''ll leave first. " She lowered her eyebrows and took a group of women''s family members to the king and queen and resigned. Unexpectedly, she didn''t notice that Zhuo Xi''s face was abnormal.


    Right in Jingyuan''s heart, Jingyuan casually rewarded them with some brocade, cotton and silk tribute this autumn. They thanked grace and left.


    Xiao soul made a record and retired.


    All the others waiting in the palace quickly withdrew.


    Jing Yuan looked at the person in front of him and looked at his nose, nose and heart. His neck was blank. He didn''t fight at all. He stepped forward and asked, "where''s the zhenhun jade?"


    Zhuo Xi gave him a cold look, "what is the soul jade of laoshizi town?"


    He gritted his teeth and said, "the one I put on for you last night!"


    "Oh, so it was the king who stole incense and jade in my room last night? How come we''ve known each other for so long? I never knew that the king would do such a small thing! "


    Jing Yuan has a mouthful of old blood in his chest. He can''t breathe out. He hasn''t done it before?! In the past, when she needed him to hold her to sleep for insomnia, she didn''t see what she said? Now you have not crossed the river, you have to tear down the bridge? Er, it doesn''t seem accurate to cross the river and tear down the bridge... But it''s sad to think so


    He stepped forward, took her hand and asked in a low voice, "Xi''er, even if you are angry with me, you should give me a clear reason?"


    "Angry? You are the king of a country. How dare I be angry with an emperor? " She shook off his hand, stood up, went to the door, opened the door and made a sign of invitation, "please go back, king. Mrs. Hou of Ruyang will come to thank you soon... "


    The door was closed and he didn''t go out. Who dares to come in? But now that the door is open, it''s so bright... There''s no one outside


    He was a little embarrassed, so he said in a low voice, "that zhenhun jade is not easy for me to ask for. You must wear it on your body. Don''t lose it. " Then he took a deep look at her and left.


    As soon as he left, Zhuo Xi immediately sent Chunlan, who had just guarded the door, to the Zichen hall as an errand.


    The next day, Ke min sent a secret letter urgently.


    Zhuo Xi looked at it and her face was heavy.


    The letter was written by Hong Quan.


    She told Xiao soul to look at the schedule of the day. Even if the event was not too urgent, she changed her casual clothes and hurried out of the palace.


    To the largest medical museum in Kyoto, called huichuntang. Sure enough, I saw a group of people around the door from a distance, crying, and white flags raised behind the crowd.


    Xiao soul and chunnuan separated the crowd in front. Zhuo Xi approached and had a look. Two children lay side by side in front of the door. One of the little girls looked only two or three years old. Her face was blue, her head tilted back and her back was arched. It seemed that she had died. The other was a little older. He was a boy, only four or five years old. His face was pale. I didn''t know if he was angry.


    A young woman knelt on the ground and cried out of breath. Next to them were two young men, who were livid and speechless. They sat on one side and stared at the Spring Festival Hall. An old doctor in the hall also knelt on the ground and said nothing. A shopkeeper nearby said painstakingly, "... No doctor can cure all diseases, can''t he? Besides, your child was late when he arrived. He was confused, his words were disordered, he was in a coma and fever, and his back was bent like this. If he didn''t enter the soup and medicine, he couldn''t stand it even if he was an adult... "


    A man from the family said, "nonsense, I was fine when I sent it. I just had a fever. I convulsed and fainted after drinking your soup. The eldest son was just a little feverish. He ate your soup yesterday and got even more feverish... "

 Chapter 192

    Zhuo Xi came near and squatted down to feel the boy''s pulse.


    Another man of the family shouted, "who are you?! What do you want? "


    Xiao soul blocked in front, and the man didn''t dare to do it for a moment.


    Chunnuan Leng hum, "if you want to save your eldest son''s life, stay honest with me!"


    The woman jumped in surprise, "miracle doctor? Can you save my son? "


    Zhuo Xi ignored, closed her eyes, carefully explored her pulse, looked at the boy''s palm, and pinched the child''s cavity for a long time. He also checked the palm of the young girl''s hand.


    Zhuo Xi reached out and chunnuan immediately handed over a clean wet towel. Zhuo Xi wiped her hands and asked, "old Sir, have you received many children with fever and vomiting recently? You can often see blood bubbles in the palm of your mouth?"


    The old doctor was very depressed. When he heard the speech, he perked up, "exactly. Many children have similar symptoms in the past half month. I used yinqiao powder to reduce fever and sweat. Most of them will be fine after taking soup medicine. But a few days ago, a child died in the same situation as her. Today, another person... I really don''t understand why I lost my life because they all have the same disease and use the same medicine? "


    Zhuo Xi said, "this is a typical hand, foot and mouth disease, which is common among children. Old gentleman, shopkeeper, please prepare enough Forsythia to distribute to children with children at home as soon as possible. Check the records of the children you treated in the past half a month. The children infected with this disease within half a month should be concentrated and isolated. Otherwise, once the disease spreads, more and more children may die because of ineffective treatment. " She also ordered chunnuan, "go and ask someone to check it out. In the past half a month, anyone who has a fever child at home and has contacted other children will be sent to see a doctor for isolation."


    Spring warm should be a sound, immediately come forward and talk to the shopkeeper inside.


    Zhuo Xi said to his family, "to be fair, this disease is not a difficult disease. The girl''s death should be that you delayed the treatment too late, resulting in the invasion of heat poison into the brain. With the doctor. The boy''s disease is afraid to be infected by the girl. If you want the boy to recover, let him drink medicine and see a doctor, but you can''t touch other children. You should stay in this spring hall and be isolated. "


    The woman''s eyes shone with hope. "You mean, hong''er, he''ll be fine?"


    Zhuo Xi said definitely, "he is the early stage of the disease. As long as he uses Decoction to remove the heat poison on time, there will be no danger. This disease can be transmitted among children. Even if children in your neighborhood have had contact with him, please ask them to come to see a doctor as soon as possible. "


    The woman thanked her for her kindness and kowtowed to the doctor of huichuntang. The two men next to him also apologized, "I''ve been wrong about the old miracle doctor."


    Zhuo Xi looked, nodded and smiled, "exactly. If you annoyed the old miracle doctor and prescribed medicine for you indiscriminately, it''s not your own child who suffers?"


    The old doctor said quickly, "the doctor is kind-hearted. I will never do it. Your daughter died for no reason, and I''m very sad... "


    The older man said, "my family has been greatly changed. I''m worried. Don''t blame the old miracle doctor."


    Zhuo Xi summoned wordless who followed him and told him to arrange people to go to the Medical Museum in the whole Kyoto City to say that if children with the same symptoms again, they would be isolated in the museum for the time being. Qualified hospitals set up two more wards, and unqualified hospitals send patients to larger hospitals.


    When the shopkeeper heard chunnuan quietly tell her that it was the queen outside, he was so scared that his legs were soft, and then he was very excited. He nodded repeatedly, saying that he must be ready to distribute yinqiao powder to children for prevention, and promised to vacate the three warehouses in the west to isolate the sick.


    Then Zhuo Xi took Xiao soul chunnuan to Xiyan Yangsheng hall, told them about the situation, and told them to pay attention to the health status of infants and young children doing early education and development in the Yangsheng hall.


    It was not until the end of the hour that he dragged his tired body back to Ning''an palace.


    She was going to go to the bedroom to freshen up, and then to sacrifice her empty five zang organs temple. He stepped into the door of the sleeping hall in Ning''an palace and was immediately hugged by a hug. The familiar ambergris fragrance stopped her initial struggle.


    She said coldly, "I thought the king was a aboveboard man. Why did he do such small things again and again?"


    Jing Yuan didn''t care. He just buried his head behind her shoulder and neck and took a deep breath, "I thought you were leaving me..."


    "Is it the king''s land that leads the land. Where can I go? With the current military strength of the king, I''m afraid the other three countries will be in your bag sooner or later. " She was also surprised that she was so angry. Why didn''t she leave? Reluctant? What are you reluctant to do?


    "Yes, there is a place called China... I don''t know where..."


    Her heart softened and opened his arm across his chest, "I just went out. I''m so hungry. I''m going to freshen up. If the king has nothing to do, please come back first. "


    Jing Yuan tightened his arm, "Xi''er, promise me not to go where I can''t find..."


    Zhuo Xi closed her lips and said nothing. I was thinking, how many countries are there in Yanlong mainland? Is there overseas? When to explore... But I really heard a long cry from my stomach


    Jing Yuan was silent, slowly released her hand, watched her walk quickly to the bathroom, and the water roared


    Before long, it spread all over the palace again. Chunlan, who was only the third-class maid in charge of guarding the gate of the outer court, rose to the second-class maid in Zichen hall.


    At this moment, the eunuch of Ning''an palace, who had been fighting, suddenly felt that God had opened another window for them. For a time, he was absorbed in the work of guarding the gate.


    I felt myself shaken in the face. So the second time the gatekeeper opened the door and let Jing Yuan in, Zhuo Xi directly beat the man 30 boards and sent him to the laundry Bureau.


    But Wuhe immediately fished people out of the laundry Bureau.


    From this day on, Jing Yuan officially entered the helpless mode - even if she entered the inner hall, she couldn''t get close to her. Because she always arranges all the time, so that there will always be outsiders in her palace to greet her... He can''t find a chance to talk to her alone... Even if he forces everything in front of him away, she is just cold faced and has nothing to say


    Only in the evening, after she fell asleep, could he sneak in and take her to a light sleep for a while... If she was awakened, it must be another quarrel... Then in the verbal threats such as "you don''t go, I''ll go", he had to walk sadly


    Then every time he came, there would be one less servant in Zichen hall, but before long, that person would appear in Zichen hall and be promoted one level. Later, Wuhe found that Zichen hall was overcrowded and was also an important military and political place, so he proposed to place people in Ziyang palace. Jing Yuan agreed without saying a word. So there are new gatekeepers or night watchmen in Ning''an palace and new palace maids in Ziyang palace


    Jing Yuan was in great trouble. The only thing that pleased him was that Jing Hua wrote a letter saying that he had successfully found the treasure hidden in the north of Junyao city. He was going to escort the first batch of treasure into Beijing with the waste emperor Zisang and the waste prince to hide people''s eyes and ears.


    Jing Hua approved a big "quasi" word, and ordered him to reappoint and arrange the original Zisang counties according to the existing 100 official vertical and horizontal management system of Wuliang state. He also sent the army to subdue more than 30 other counties south and west of Junyao City, of which nearly 30 counties automatically offered a descending table. Finally, 60000 of the 80000 troops were stationed at the border between yuanzisang and tengju.


    On this day, Zi Ran reported that the former Zisang monarch Jing Yu, Queen Cui Yan, the abandoned crown prince Jing Huang and his two younger brothers had arrived in Kyoto. The rest of the relatives stayed in the zisangbie palace and were locked up.


    Jing Yuan thought for a long time. He really didn''t know why he had ordered them to come to Kyoto. Hostage? There''s no threat again. Shut it up? Then why under your own eyes? Kill them? They are also their distant relatives.


    Finally, Jing Yuan had to let someone settle them down in other hospitals in the far suburbs to provide them with basic food and clothing and isolate all external communications. It also took a nice name "Ziyuan".


    Then a few days later, I heard that Lin Lang also followed to Kyoto. Because he had promised to give Cui Jiu the whole beard and tail to her, but Cui Jiu had no choice but to accompany his parents voluntarily, and he couldn''t force it. But Lin Lang asked himself to see Cui Jiu, so he had to agree.


    So Lin Lang often goes in and out between Ning''an palace and Ziyuan.


    On this day, he broke into Ning''an palace to see his Xi''er during working hours.


    Zhuo Xi''s stomach has been a little pregnant. When he slept with her last night, he felt that the fetus in his stomach moved. It was a surprise. Today, he has been thinking about the feeling of the moment when his palm was scratched


    Unexpectedly, the person in Ning''an palace was Lin Lang. As soon as she saw him come in, she stopped discussing with Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi was still very cold. "It''s really time for the king to come up. Miss Lin is still discussing business with the palace." She bit the words "girl" and "business" very hard.


    He sat on the seat next to her and motioned them to continue. It would be good to look at her so quietly.


    Lin Lang took a look at him and did not salute him, so he directly talked with Zhuo Xi about the topic just now.


    After listening for a long time, Jing Yuan realized that they were discussing a art of war. It seems that they wrote it themselves


    After listening for half an hour, he didn''t find a chance to let Lin Lang go... Besides, this art of war is really awesome. Finally, he had to touch his nose and reluctantly looked at Zhuo Xi before he went out and went back to Zichen hall.


    When he returned to Zichen hall, he suddenly came to Wuhe and asked him to send someone to Ning''an palace to watch. Seeing Miss Lin coming out, he immediately went to the study.

 Chapter 193

    Because he remembered what Lin Lang said about China in Junyao city. Maybe only she can solve this problem


    Lin Lang will be here soon. In fact, she was reluctant to see Jing Yuan, because she would salute and worship him as soon as she saw him.


    Jing Yuan knew her and directly avoided her big gift and asked her to sit down.


    Looking at this posture, Lin Lang remembered the "chat" outside Junyao city that day. His palms were sweating. What would he do again


    Jing Yuan didn''t know why, but he didn''t twist much, so he told the original story of the quarrel between him and Zhuo Xi and the cold war.


    Lin Lang was confused and asked, "what did Chu Bo say to the queen?"


    "Chuber told her story. In fact, Xi''er''s name was Yuxi. In those days, my grandmother was the eldest princess of the Yu family. She married the Yao family of the Gelao family and had a son and a daughter. My daughter is my mother, Xianru. His son is uncle Yao, the former patriarch of Gelao nationality. After the great changes, the Yu royal family fled everywhere and hid their names. One side branch, King Chang, fled to the Gelao family, his aunt and my great grandmother. Later, the pursuers came, and King Chang and his party continued to escape the pursuit with their daughter. On the way of hunting, King Chang separated from Princess Chang. Her daughter entrusted the Yao family to find her mother and begged her to take her in. The mother Princess took pity on her life experience, so she hid her in the wind garden and was raised by Chu Bo. This daughter is Yu Qian, now Xi''er. "


    "So, is your name Xi''er Zhuo Xi''s Xi or Yu Xi''s Xi?" Lin Lang knew the crux right away.


    Jing Yuan suddenly understood and hurriedly said, "nature is Zhuo Xi''s Xi."


    "You know, but the queen may not know." Proud as she is, how can she be willing to be a double?


    "What a word to wake up the dreamer." When he gives thanks in a hurry, he will get up and go to Ning''an palace.


    Lin Lang grabbed him, "but you said that the queen had once acted against the baby?"


    He sat down again and said with a sad face, "yes, but then it seemed that there was no more. But I''ve been with her these days, and I don''t see how much she loves me. I don''t understand. This child is our only bone and blood. Shouldn''t she cherish it very much? "


    Lin Lang asked, "did something special happen when the Changwang couple took refuge in Gelao nationality?" About Yuxi''s life experience


    Jing Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I heard that Princess Chang and aunt Yao were pregnant at the same time and gave birth to a daughter almost at the same time. Unfortunately, aunt Yao had difficulty giving birth and went there that day. It is rumored that the war was in chaos at that time. Princess Chang designed to make people transfer their two daughters and raise their daughter in Gelao nationality. She may have brought out the daughter of Uncle Yao. "


    Lin Lang suddenly appeared, "that is to say, it is possible that Yuqian and you are aunts and sisters?"


    Jing Yuan nodded. Even so, isn''t it normal for my aunt to get married?


    Lin Lang thought about it and smiled strangely, "Mr. king, can you tell me first what the role of zhenhun jade is?"


    "Soul calming is naturally used to calm the soul." There was an unnatural look on his face. "That day, Xi''er was unconscious for several days and nights, and spoke some language that few people could not understand. I was afraid that her soul was disturbed, so she went to Zisang to find the jade."


    Lin Lang was surprised, "you put out the purple mulberry in a hurry, just for this blood jade?"


    Jing Yuan touched his nose and coughed, "isn''t this also to test the magic gun you made?" He replied and added, "you already know, don''t tell her..." if she suddenly left like the Tathagata, it would make him regret


    He rushed thousands of miles to destroy the enemy country, but only for a piece of jade on the queen of the enemy country... He must love her very much? Lin Lang felt that he was going to be moved, and he probably knew why Zhuo Xi was so ambivalent. She suddenly remembered that she saw the blood jade in Zhuo Xi''s hand last time, so she decided to gamble, "Sir, if the people''s daughter solves the trouble in the Queen''s heart for you and makes you reconcile as before, can you agree to the two requirements of the people''s daughter?"


    "Tell me first." In view of Lin Lang''s strong destructive power, Jing Yuan cautiously did not agree.


    "First, give me the zhenhun jade. In fact, zhenhun jade is of no use to the queen. The queen is worried. Second, I''ll take Cui Jiu. "


    "Cui Jiu? He won''t go with you. "


    Lin Lang smiled strangely, "I can''t help him then. Just promise. And if we leave, we will never come back. You can rest assured. "


    He measured and found that the two demands were not the same thing for his wife and son, so he nodded and agreed.


    Lin Lang excitedly explained the reason to him.


    His eyes widened in surprise


    So, is it so


    In Ning''an palace, Zhuo Xi is dealing with the palace men on duty in yesterday''s house.


    Yesterday, it was finally the turn of chunnuan to be on duty in the inner hall.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t ask anything, so she asked someone to take her down and beat the board.


    Chunnuan rushed at her feet and cried, "madam, it''s nothing for slaves to suffer. But you can''t go on like this! "


    Since the first day of the Spring Festival Gala, the people below have been silent and dare not make a sound. The atmosphere in Ning''an palace has been stagnant for nearly a month.


    Zhuo Xi was unhappy, but it was Xiao Li who knelt down with her, but she didn''t expect that even Xiao Li could completely ignore her orders


    Chunnuan continued: "although I don''t know what happened to my mother, I always hope that you and the king, as well as the unborn little prince, can have a happy family with Meimei..."


    "Family?" Zhuo Xi was suddenly hit by these three words in her heart. In the previous life, she had no home, only a grandmother who brought her up from childhood, but later, grandma didn''t even know her. Two months ago, at mingxiaoshan, she really felt that she had a noisy family for the first time. She had a mother-in-law and a nephew, uncle and sister-in-law. The only regret was that her knees were still empty... She could feel that Jing Yuan was moved, happy and happy like her


    But why... She should be so stubborn to know such a truth... And now she has a child in her stomach


    These days, Jing Yuan will come to him when he sees the opportunity. Although he treats him coldly, he can''t beat him back. At night, he would always hold her quietly from behind... At first, she would instinctively resist, but later, she would open and close one eye and follow him


    Chunnuan said, "yes! Although you are queen, this palace is your home! There are mother-in-law, husband and unborn baby at home! Don''t you often teach us that our duty is to make women all over the world bright and happy? Those women who have three wives and four concubines at home regard their children as more valuable than their own lives. They want to give the whole world to him! The king treated you sincerely. He not only rejected the imperial concubine''s advice for you, but also destroyed Zisang from afar to get zhenhun jade for you! What''s wrong with you? To torture yourself and your baby like this? "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, stroked the blood jade she had been used to playing with recently, and asked her, "you say, this is called zhenhun jade?"


    Chunnuan nodded, "yes, the maid sent someone to inquire. That is the zhenhun blood jade left by the Heavenly Master of the previous dynasty. It has been hidden in the Zisang palace before. It is said that it was worn by the former Zisang queen... "


    Zhenhun zhenhun... She remembered that Jing Yuan was unconscious before he set out for the war... Did he


    She suddenly found that maybe she had misunderstood him all the time... He never knew he was not the "Xier", so he was afraid that she would wear it back? What town soul jade are you looking for?


    Although she knew that this "Xi''er" was not another "Xi''er" at that time, she felt bitter... Especially when she knew that her body was actually his direct cousin... Maybe she was happy to see the success of the combination of aunt and cousin in this era, she was a modern educated person, had a strong resistance to the marriage of close relatives, and was too worried about the health of her baby in her belly. That''s why she almost did something stupid at first.


    She was in a cold sweat. If he had known that this "Xi''er" was not that "Xi''er"... Did the so-called "aunt" also have an unknown truth?


    She has never been an escapist. If she did it again, she would still ask the truth.


    She has to face all the trouble and pain.


    Zhuo Xi sighed and said, "today''s board is free. Go directly to the study and be on duty!"


    Chunnuan burst into tears, "my lady, I won''t go! If the maidservant leaves, the rest are newcomers. Where else can you use it easily? "


    Zhuo Xi sighed again, "go to the study and be on duty. If the king is free, he will serve him to Ning''an palace."


    The Spring Festival Gala was crying. After listening to the sobbing, he was ready to get up. Suddenly, he understood, reacted and rushed over in surprise, "empress!"


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help laughing. "Looking at you following this palace for so long, I thought you had become more calm. How can I know that you are still such a rogue and can''t stand the scare."


    The Spring Festival Gala was still crying, and then smiled, "madam, if it''s such a good thing, I''d like to be scared several times..."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "you go down first. The Palace should think about it. "


    Since you decide to face it, you still have to ask clearly, so as to judge how to go next.


    After Jing Yuan sent Lin Lang away, Gong SunLi and others went to the upper study to discuss with him. On the way, he was elated when five rivers quietly handed over the news of spring warming. He did not care about the mountains of official business, nor did he care about the eager eyes of the courtiers looking at him. He announced almost immediately, "let''s discuss it later", and then left the upper study and turned back to the inner hall. I didn''t care to change my imperial clothes, so I went straight to Ning''an palace.

 Chapter 194

    This time he didn''t shut the door again.


    The gate of Ning''an palace was wide open. Turning around the screen wall, the gate of the main hall inside was also wide open.


    Then turn to the inner hall, and the gate is still open.


    He had never been so unobstructed. He waved to avoid all the palace people kneeling down to meet him. He directly broke into the bedroom hall and hugged the beautiful figure standing in front of the windowsill to trim flowers and plants.


    He was careful and couldn''t help tightening his arm. He was no longer willing to let go.


    Zhuo Xi was suddenly sad for some reason, and her tears couldn''t stop overflowing her eyes. She threw away the scissors, turned around and hugged him.


    For a long time, he loosened her and wiped away the tears in her eyes. His five fingers held her greasy and exquisite face, but he couldn''t let go anymore. He bowed his head and kissed her bright red lips.


    "Xi''er, my Xi''er." He whispered in her ear, no longer waiting for her to ask questions, and quickly confessed, "in fact, I knew you were not the Xier who grew up in the wind garden since childhood. You are a priceless treasure from heaven. " You are you, not someone else''s double.


    She gently beat him twice with her hand and said stuffy in his arms, "why didn''t you say it earlier..." then she regretted that she didn''t tell him frankly. How dare he mention it?


    He only tightened his arms, "yes, it''s my husband''s fault..."


    "When did you know?"


    "At the beginning, although I recognized that you were very similar to Yuxi, I couldn''t confirm that you were Yuxi. That time, I was injured and unconscious. Do you remember the night I held your hand? I slept particularly peacefully. Wake up and find yourself holding your hand. There is a shallow scar on the edge of your left little finger. That was when you found the cave behind the wisteria tree with me in the wind garden when you were a child. I recognized you then. But I know you''re not you. "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "so the first inexplicable proposal was actually your temptation?"


    Jing Yuan nodded, "I''m sorry. I know Yuxi is careful about me and wants to marry me. So when I was ten years old, I alienated her. Try to propose. If you are her, you will agree. But that trial also tried out my own heart, because I found that I didn''t dislike the proposal. On the contrary, I really wanted it to become a real reality. "


    "No wonder you didn''t see me several times, so you forced me to stay in the Marquis house as your waiter..."


    "I think you really need such a legal identity if you are Yuxi..."


    "So, is that Yuxi really your cousin?"


    He said quickly, "I just learned about it and was about to write to Uncle Yao to ask about the situation. But that''s just a rumor. Uncle Yao is so smart. How could he be exiled by his own flesh and blood? In my judgment, the rumor must have been released by Princess Chang to confuse those who were after them. " He stroked her slightly swollen stomach, "besides, the saying that close relatives may make the baby bad is only a possibility. You don''t know how many precedents there are for aunts and cousins to kiss each other... "


    Zhuo Xi raised her face and asked suspiciously, "how did you know? No, how do you know I''m going to ask you these two things? "


    He confessed honestly, "it''s Lin lang. I just called Lin Lang to ask."


    She immediately became alert. "No profit, no early rise. What did she ask?"


    He was full of joy and hugged her again. "If she untied this knot for both of us, don''t say two requests, that is, twenty requests, I promised her."


    She wanted to find out, "come on, what did she ask for?"


    He said bluntly, "it''s nothing. One is to zhenhunyu and the other is to take Cui Jiu."


    "She wants this town soul jade? What is the reason for this town''s soul jade? " She picked up the blood jade placed on the windowsill and looked carefully. As like as two peas came to her, she found that the familiar pattern of the jade was almost the same as that of Lin Lang''s forehead. At that time, he showed Lin Lang in surprise.


    Jing Yuan said, "it is said that this jade can calm the mind and calm the soul. I saw you in a coma and shouted Wolf for fear that you would fly back to your school. I hurried to find the jade. Now you''re all right. I''m afraid you can''t use it. Jing Hua wrote to me earlier that Lin Lang was rummaging about looking for something in the palace of Junyao city. I think it''s about it. "


    Is this the blood jade Lin Lang is looking for? No wonder she saw it a few days ago, with a flash of surprise on her face.


    "Cui Jiu is the person she asked me for. I promised her without talking to you. Aren''t you angry? "


    Jing Yuan said, "what''s the matter? Originally, their zisangjing family and we are distant relatives. Although I destroyed zisangguo in the name of taking the second seal of the son of heaven, I don''t want to kill them all. If she wants to take Cui Jiu, let her take it. But Cui Jiu was determined to live or die with his parents. When he was in Junyao City, he was unwilling to go with Lin Lang, so he was taken here. "


    "What happened to the second seal of the emperor? How can you and Chai Sangjing''s family be distant relatives? " Zhuo Xi asked curiously.


    He said, "when the kingdom of Yudian was surrounded by the Yin, Jing, Qi and Xu families, the side branches of the Jing family also made great contributions. Therefore, when the kingdom of Yudian was finally divided, the two branches of the Jing family shared the territory, and made a contract to divide the family at that time, and the zisangjing family opened another ancestral temple. At that time, only five of the six seals of the son of heaven searched in the Yudian palace were found. After they were divided into small countries, they happened to have one seal for each country, and agreed with each other that there would be no war for 30 years. At that time, the five countries shared all the wealth of the Yudian royal family, and there was no territorial division. Therefore, at the beginning, they had equal strength. Therefore, although there were harassment and wars on the borders of several countries, there was no dominance. However, Teng Ju was trapped in the civil war of brotherhood for a long time, and its national strength gradually declined. Maybe Zisang saw the opportunity and sent troops to try to seize the city a few months ago. Unexpectedly, my people found that the king of Zisang had hidden the sixth seal in Zisang. In other words, he has two seals in his hand. If they annexed Teng Ju and called on the world to tell him that he had the three seals of the son of heaven in his hand, there would certainly be some forces expecting the reunification of the five countries close to him. Therefore, I took the opportunity to take blood jade from Junyao city to test the power of new weapons. Originally, I wanted to sneak into Zisang palace with some people on Qingqi. Unexpectedly, we almost went south at the speed of one city a day and killed it so soon... "


    Zhuo Xi felt a little pain in her heart and looked at him up and down, "are you okay? Are you hurt? "


    He laughed and hugged her sideways. "It''s half a month since my husband came back. Is it too late for you to think of my injury now?..."


    She was put on the bed and pushed him. "So you''re not hurt? Then get up! Be careful to press the baby. "


    He leaned slightly on her, chewed the snow tender skin around her neck, and murmured, "in fact, I was hurt."


    She was startled. "Where?"


    He took her hand and put it close to his chest. His eyes were like silk. "Here."


    She knew she had been fooled. She also deliberately stretched out a finger, touched his chest and asked, "here? here? Or here? "


    He grabbed her finger and put it in his mouth.


    She immediately Xiafei''s cheeks, quickly took out her hand and said, "be careful, baby!"


    He grabbed her lips, put one hand into her skirt, and murmured to her for a long time, "it doesn''t matter. Mother Wu taught me how to keep the baby from getting hurt..."


    Zhuo Xi took a breath of air conditioning. "What else did mother Wu teach you?"


    "Well, she didn''t teach me your posture on it..."


    ¡­¡­


    "No, no, no --" Zhuo Xi swayed and twisted, but he took a breath, pressed his lips hard, put his tongue in and chased herself... She hesitated for a moment, and finally let herself indulge in this long-awaited tenderness


    The palace attendants in the palace left happily long ago


    The next day, all the maids who had served in the Ning''an palace returned to their original positions, and the new maids also stayed in the Ning''an palace and were retrained by chunzao. Ning''an palace restored the original happy and relaxed atmosphere.


    The empress dowager, who was far away in Ci''an palace, also smiled relaxed when she heard the news brought by mother su.


    The palace attendants in Zichen Palace also took a long breath


    Zi Ran is particularly happy because one thing he has wanted to do for a long time can finally be implemented


    So Zhuo Xi had lunch in the unprecedented happy atmosphere. When she was walking and eating in the small garden in the backyard, she saw Xiao soul coming in unnaturally.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. Xiao soul, who has always been brave and skilled, rarely had such an expression. Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and waited for her to speak. But Xiao soul looked at the warmth of spring, but his face was slightly red and his head bowed.


    Chunnuan was very interested and joked, "sister Xiao soul, isn''t adult Zi Ran coming again?"


    Zhuo Xi was also very interested, "what is another?"


    Did she patronize and sulk during this time and ignore any gossip?


    Chunnuan smiled, "madam, don''t you know? For more than half a month, Lord Ziran will wait at the side door of Ning''an palace the next day, waiting for our Lord Xiao to meet him! "


    Xiao soul spat, "what do you want to meet? He has come to explain his business every time! Don''t listen to this little girl''s nonsense. " It''s taboo for men and women to give and receive each other privately in the harem. You should be careful in front of the queen!


    Chunnuan said with a smile, "Oh - last time he said he was ordered by the king to ask her about her appetite. In fact, he said he got a popular script and sent it to her; Last time, he gave some appetizers under the same excuse. Last time, he said that the king asked him to ask when his mother''s birthday was, but he said that someone''s birthday was coming. He didn''t know what gift to give, so he carved a chicken wing hairpin... He has a lot of business... "


    Before she finished, Xiao soul took out a thing from her sleeve and stuffed it into her mouth, "eat, eat, the snacks last time, last time and last time can''t plug your mouth. You''re really a white eyed wolf..."


    Chunnuan grabbed the peaches stuffed in his mouth and shouted, "I''ve sent peaches again this time! Madam, you see, there is a mountain of hard evidence! "


    Zhuo Xi laughed. "I never knew that Lord Ziran, who has always been iron faced and selfless, had such an iron and tender side..."


    Xiao soul blushed, "what iron tenderness, he''s just a second Leng who doesn''t understand the style!"

 Chapter 195

    Zhuo Xi immediately smelled the trace, "don''t understand amorous feelings? "Which style?"


    Chunnuan said with a smile: "of course, recently, those mothers in charge are asking for suitable candidates!"


    "Mother!" Xiao soul was very angry and turned away from talking.


    Chunnuan ran to her, looked at her face carefully, and reported to Zhuo Xi, "madam, Lord Xiao blushed -"


    "You --" Xiao soul stamped his feet and hurriedly blessed the empress Wang, "madam, it''s time for the lunch break. Leave first!"


    He ran away.


    Zhuo Xi shouted to her back, "Hey, you haven''t said what Ziran is looking for you!"


    Chunnuan smiled happily. Seeing the master looking at her, he quickly blessed his body and said, "Niang, maidservant, go out and have a look. Is adult Ziran still there?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "go. If he wants to see me, bring him in."


    It''s almost time. Their awkward behavior also delayed them to some extent... It really shouldn''t be


    Sure enough, after a while, chunnuan came in with a smile.


    Zi Ran saw the queen and paid homage.


    Zhuo Xi said, "no gift."


    The queen knelt up and said, "the queen didn''t answer."


    Zhuo Xi was walking to a peony flower and looked carefully at the white peony in full bloom. The corners of her lips aroused a smile, "you talk first, and the palace can judge whether she can agree."


    Zi Ran''s face showed a worried look, "Weichen, please your mother and depose Miss Xiao soul!"


    Zhuo Xi suddenly changed her color.


    Spring is also warm, and the smile suddenly turned into anger.


    Zhuo Xi turned around and asked in a deep voice, "what are you talking about? Say it again. "


    Zi Ran repeated, "Weichen begged his mother to depose Miss Xiao soul!"


    Zhuo Xi smiled angrily, "Lord Xiao is the chief female officer around the palace. There has been no mistake since she took office. Even if the palace wants to depose her, there must be a suitable reason! I don''t know, Lord Ziran, why do you dare to ask the female officials around you? "


    Zi Ran pursed his lips tightly and stopped talking.


    Chunnuan also angrily said, "Lord Zi Ran, forgive me for being rude and saying a few words. Even if you want to marry her, you don''t have to let her abandon her official and go home. Just be your official wife! Even if you want her to leave her office and go home, you can let her resign. Why do you want her to be such a villain? "


    Zi Ran threw his head on the ground, "please answer."


    Zhuo Xi was silent for a moment and asked, "this palace is still that sentence. What can you rely on to let this palace depose a five grade female official?"


    Zi Ran''s hands on the ground became fists, his head was still buried on the ground and said, "I have evidence to prove that Miss Xiao soul is actually the daughter of a criminal minister and doesn''t deserve to be an official!"


    Before Zhuo Xi could say anything, chunnuan immediately jumped up and said, "what are you talking about?! Daughter of a sinner? Could it be that Lord Ziran has changed his mind! If you don''t want to marry her, just say it! Sister Xiao has always been a straightforward person and will certainly agree. You don''t have to say such evil words to make sister Xiao suffer such a strange insult! "


    Zhuo Xi has calmed down, "you say, she is the daughter of a sinner? What evidence is there? "


    Zi Ran straightened his upper body, shook his hands, took out an object from his arms and presented it, "this object was personally handed over to Wei Chen by Miss Xiao soul. It is said to be a family heirloom of her family. This is enough to prove that she is the daughter of Sima Jiqing in pozhou! Ji Qing was involved in the case of witches and insects. He committed crimes against nine families. All the family men were killed, and the women were slaves all their lives. "


    Chunnuan took a cold breath, and tears came out of his eyes immediately.


    Zhuo Xi was also surprised and motioned chunnuan to hand in the object.


    Chunnuan''s tears fell more fiercely. She trembled and handed the object to Zhuo Xi.


    "Xiye Yuanjia." Zhuo Xi recognized the handwriting on it and read it out, "how can this jade pendant prove to be a thing of Ji Qing?"


    "It is well known that twenty years ago, there was only one daughter in the famous xiyeyuan family, who married Zhangzhou Jiqing, the No. 1 scholar of the new science in the 12th year of Tianyuan, and later became the Sima of Puzhou. What''s more, "he said after a pause, gritting his teeth," Miss Xiao soul, since her original name is Ji Ruomu, is the daughter of Ji Qing. "


    Spring heating shivered, "sister Xiao trusted you so much and gave you a family jade pendant as a pledge, but you sold her so..."


    "Go back first. This palace should consider this matter." Zhuo Xi pinched the jade pendant, sighed and stretched out her hand to let chunnuan hold it back to the room.


    Chunnuan sobbed all the way and helped Zhuo Xi to the bedroom.


    Zhuo Xi was a little funny. "Why are you crying so sad?"


    After closing the door, chunnuan sobbed, "madam, sister Xiao is so poor..."


    Zhuo Xi gave her the jade pendant and put it away. "According to the palace, your sister Xiao deliberately gave it to Zi Ran. I''m afraid Xiao Hun expected this event today... "


    Chunnuan widened her eyes, "sister Xiao did it on purpose? Is she trying to test Lord Ziran? But Lord Ziran betrayed her so easily... Well, if she saw Lord Ziran''s true face earlier, she would have given up! It''s better than finding out his true face after marrying him... "


    Zhuo Xi took off her clothes, lay on the bed and said leisurely, "it''s not necessarily true. If it''s done, I''m afraid she will thank him and be more determined to him... "


    Spring warmth is inexplicable. I have to ask, but I see that my mother has closed her eyes, so I dare not say any more. She covers the quilt and gently retreats out.


    On this day, Zhuo Xi was handling government affairs in Ning''an palace. The Spring Festival Gala came in with a brocade box.


    "Madam, the king has just sent someone here. It says that the people have entered a 10000 word table for you. Thank you for stopping the spread of childhood epidemic in time and saving the children''s lives."


    Zhuo Xi said in surprise, "how do they know it''s this palace? Why did it come at this time? "


    The Spring Festival Gala said, "a few days ago, the king said that the tenth day of October is the mother''s birthday. This year is the first birthday of the empress, and the whole country should celebrate... "


    Zhuo Xi''s face sank, immediately fell the memorial to be approved on her hand, and shouted to Xiao soul standing upright, "Lord Xiao, do you know the sin?"


    Xiao soul immediately knelt down, "please express yourself."


    "How did the king know the birthday of this palace?"


    Xiao soul thought slightly, "that day, however, the LORD was ordered by the king to ask the empress for lunch. By the way, he asked the lower officer, and the lower officer told him."


    "The date of the royal family''s birthday is kept secret. You revealed the real birthday of the palace without permission. This crime is one. Only you and chunnuan know about saving children that day. How did the people know it was the idea of our palace? Will it be inconvenient for me to go out of the palace again in the future? Spring has never been warm enough to leave the palace. You are to blame. This crime two. Hand, foot and mouth disease can spread, but it''s not a difficult disease. It''s just a small matter. You use the birthday of our palace to confuse the people with tens of thousands of words and books. It''s suspected of grandstanding. This crime is three. Are you not satisfied? " Zhuo Xi said slowly. Xun GUI''s family is afraid that someone will use the magic of the eight character line of the birthday. Therefore, they generally don''t disclose their real birthday and will choose a day to spend their birthday. So it''s not wrong to say so.


    Not only Xiao soul, but also the Spring Festival Gala were stunned. Xiao Hun was stunned for a moment and leaned down. "The lower official knows the crime and asks the empress to punish him."


    Zhuo Xi said, "you don''t know how to behave. It''s difficult to serve in front of this palace. Spring is warm! "


    Chunnuan, who has been waiting for pen and ink, immediately opened her own notebook and said, "there''s a slave!"


    Zhuo Xi looked at her, "why don''t you change your mouth?"


    Chunnuan immediately understood, "the lower officer is here!"


    Xiao soul was pale.


    Zhuo Xi said in a deep voice, "Xiao soul is careless and can''t be reused. Therefore, from now on, he changed his position of running calligraphy in the palace and demoted him to the common people. In addition, the spring is warm, literate and reasonable, and the general word is Xiaoyi. From now on, he will be promoted to the position of running calligraphy in the fifth grade inner palace, and his sixth grade inner palace reference book will be exempted. "


    Chunnuan quickly finished recording, put down the silk pen, knelt down and kowtowed to Shane.


    Xiao''s soul was shaky and had to kowtow to thank him.


    The Spring Festival Gala was shocked and speechless. She didn''t understand that it was a great wedding. The king also sent a pile of gifts to celebrate. How could there be such a turning point?


    Xiao soul went to his residence, packed up his baggage, returned the golden seal of his official clothes, cried bitterly with Hua Yan for a while, choked and told chunnuan to take good care of his mother, and left the palace with red eyes.


    When he walked out of the palace gate, he saw a familiar figure in front of him, leaning against a carriage behind him, standing tall and smiling at her.


    When Jing Yuan came to have lunch, he saw Zhuo Xi daze at a dagger.


    He took her by the shoulder and asked, "she is also asking for mercy. Don''t be too sad."


    She muttered, "unexpectedly, she is Jiqing''s daughter..."


    Jing Yuan said, "when I traveled to Wuyuan mountain and saved her in the encirclement of a dead man in black, I didn''t expect that she was the daughter of a sinner."


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyes. "No wonder she refused to tell her true identity. She said that she was not your subordinate, but she had to obey you. Not only did you save her life, but also because you promised to overturn her father''s case? "


    "The case of witches and insects is very widespread. It took three days to kill more than 300 people at the mouth of the Kyoto vegetable market. I can not turn the corner, but I has the final say, but I promise her that if there is a chance, she can check one or two. Seeing her excellent martial arts, I let her be the dark guard around you. " In fact, she acquiesced that she had a chance to verify it secretly, didn''t she?


    Zhuo Xi nodded and choked, "so she called Xiao soul..." it''s not the ecstasy. It''s true, cut your soul! His parents and brothers died overnight, leaving him alone


    He took her into his arms, "I''m not afraid. When she has a son in the future, she will no longer be alone. They will be as happy as we are. "


    She couldn''t help but wet her eyes. "She blocked a sword for me when I was attacked in zhaojialing. From then on, I didn''t dare to leave the dagger for a moment. I''m afraid I''ll drag down those who protect me. She tried her best to save me countless times, but I didn''t want to repay her in this way... "


    "If you don''t, how can she stand to avenge her father''s family?"


    She raised her face from his arms. "Has Zi Ran found evidence for her to overturn the case?"


    "Zi Ran should not have, but she herself, taking advantage of her position, I''m afraid she has read all the files in the inner government! So you can rest assured that everything is under her control. "


    "Did she really deliberately tell Zi Ran about her family heirloom and her life experience?"


    "I think her move should have two meanings. One is to tell the truth and show her sincerity; The second is to test Zi Ran''s sincerity and let Zi Ran make a choice. Whether Zi Ran chooses to advance and retreat hand in hand with her, or retreat in the face of difficulties, she will have no regrets. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "unexpectedly, in the end, I was used by them for nothing! When all the dust settles, see how I can ask them for interest... "


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "the future is long. This is it. Don''t worry about it any more. How are you feeling today? Does the baby bother you? "


    "No. You said, "will he really be all right?"


    Jing Yuan nodded affirmatively, "there should be news from Uncle Yao soon. Don''t worry, he is our blood, and he will be a healthy and smart baby! "


    Zhuo Xi sighed sadly.


    Will they be happy? A family of three will be happy, right? If it is really a close relative relationship, what will happen to the baby? Do you have any adverse effects on your baby because of your self abandonment a few days ago? In this era of neither B-ultrasound nor caesarean section, will it hurt to death when giving birth to a baby?

 Chapter 196

    Two days later, when Lin Lang came with the revised art of war of Sun Tzu at the agreed time, Zhuo Xi had been playing with the blood jade end in her hand for a long time.


    Lin Lang looked unnatural. She knew what the people in front of her knew.


    Zhuo Xi sat upright and looked sideways at her from top to bottom, with a trace of contempt in her eyes.


    Lin Lang''s eyes turned twice. "Pa" threw the bamboo tube in his hand on the ground in front of Zhuo Xi and straightened his back, "Zhuo Xi, don''t look at me with a look of contempt. I asked myself, there''s nothing I owe you, and there''s nothing I''m sorry for you. In a word, we just met by chance in this inexplicable age. Our relationship is at most a fellow townsman, and we have no other friendship. I gave you a powder prescription to develop oil fields and build iron guns for you. Now I have written Sun Tzu, Sima FA, Liu Tao, Wei xuanzi and three strategies for you, so that you and your husband can achieve many great things in this world! You can''t ask for more! "


    Chunnuan was stunned when she heard it. Has she ever seen anyone who wants to come in without saluting her mother and attack her first?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t laugh angrily. "Didn''t you give me a powder prescription for one-third of the shares of Wulin mountain? Don''t you want to create huge wealth for yourself to operate a monopoly industry? Didn''t you build an iron gun to save your Cui Jiu? Aren''t you silent about these military books in order to destroy the three-year agreement? "


    Lin Lang choked, "which three-year appointment?"


    Zhuo Xi was silent for a moment and said coldly, "the world knows that honesty lies in keeping promise. Originally, I thought that you and I were full of contract spirit. How do you know that you escaped and ignored our agreement! "


    "Splash woman, fork your hands at once? Are you interested in making an appointment with me? You said that Wulin mountain gave me a third of the shares, but I built the oil field and began to produce oil. What about shares? What about dividends? You said to provide me with unlimited scientific research funds. What about silver? Even bronze cloth coins will do! Dear Queen, have you ever given me a dime? Yes, I promised you that if you let Cui Jiu die, I would sit in the Military Academy for you for three years. Although Cui Jiu didn''t want to go with me, strictly speaking, Cui Jiu''s life is still in your hands, so you don''t abide by the agreement. Even if I don''t fulfill my promise, I can''t break it? "


    Zhuo Xi snorted coldly, "spring is warm. Go to find the account book of Ning''an palace for half a year and the bill sent by Ke min last month."


    Chunnuan put down his silk pen and hurried out.


    He soon came with some rolls of silk.


    Zhuo Xi helped the forehead. At this time, there was no paper, either bamboo slips or silk. It was really inconvenient. It was very promising for Lin Lang to do it. It seemed that he had to do the experiment himself


    She motioned chunnuan to read out the details related to Lin Lang.


    "On the tenth day of March, the empress rewarded 108 beads, a string of Jasper Buddha beads, a pair of carved cloud pattern tourmaline bracelets, and a red gold jade Ruyi hairpin; On March 16, the empress rewarded a pair of gold hairpins, a pair of Jasper Red Gold Three Leaf Earrings and a red gold collar with five blessing cloud pattern


    ¡­¡­¡­¡­


    On August 19, my mother gave me a Jingfu long cotton hairpin, a Riyong Qin Book hairpin, a gold jewelry folding silk bracelet, a pair of Stone Sapphire hollowed out Shuangluan peonies... On the sixth day of October, my mother gave me a golden heart, Ganoderma lucidum bamboo hairpin, Turquoise Flower Shaped gold hairpin, red gold pearl inlaid double dragon playing BEAD EARRINGS... "


    Lin Lang''s face looked more and more ugly. Just waiting to distinguish, Zhuo Xi raised her hand and motioned her to finish listening.


    Chunnuan put down the account book, picked up another one and continued to read: "on March 11, it cost 1100 yuan to buy shangxiangfang and enter the house; On March 12, he bought a housekeeper, three maids, four women''s sons and six hospital guards, which cost 130 yuan, and prepaid 30 yuan for daily purchase on the same day; On March 25, Miss Lin Lang left Beijing and sent her 800 yuan; On the same day, I settled the arrears of 150 yuan in Xiyan Yangsheng hall, 86 yuan in guangjuxuan restaurant and 60 yuan in shundang car and horse store; On March 30, pay Xiangfang 50 yuan a month. On the first day of April, advance ten yuan for daily purchase in April; April 30, 50 yuan per month; On the first day of April... "


    Spring is warm and gushing, and I read it until my mouth is dry: "since March, I have paid a total of 38026 Bu outside the palace. It does not include the relevant expenses of zhaojialing, Wulin mountain and Liangzhou. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately received, "the daily operation of your house is all advanced by the palace for you. All the accounts you write down are advanced by the palace for you. Not including your scientific research funds, you spent more than 6000 yuan in wulinshan oilfield and more than 8000 yuan in cangcuishan mine cave... Don''t think there is no bleeding in this palace, but these expenses have not been paid by your hand! "


    Lin Lang jumped up and said, "I have nothing to say when the scientific research funds are used for the project. Can your reward become the salary and dividend you pay me? "


    Zhuo Xi said, "although Wulin mountain oil is produced, it cannot be realized. Our palace can''t give you real gold and silver dividends, so we have to give you more rewards. We know that you love gold and silver, so we will reward you with gold and silver jewelry. We also know that you don''t love gold and silver jewelry. As soon as you get the reward, you will cash it. Spring is warm. How many of these gifts have been pawned at which pawnshop? " In the world, only Lin Lang would pawn the imperial gift as soon as he got it. If the shopkeeper was not frightened and thought it was stolen from the palace, he immediately sent someone to report it quietly. She didn''t know.


    Chunnuan looked through it and immediately replied, "a total of 36739 yuan was pawned. It''s all live. " The shopkeeper was also cautious. He reported everything and counted the total every month.


    Lin Lang lowered his voice and flattened his mouth. "At least I''m a high-end technical talent. I don''t have a salary. It''s not too much to get some rewards from you to cash in?"


    "Ordinary female officials of seven grades earn no more than 30 bucks a month; Ordinary people''s home, 30 bucks for a family of three to live for three months; Ordinary slaves have no monthly income; There are more than 30 housekeepers, with only six yuan a month; Ordinary slaves and maidservants of good nationality have only three coins a month. You should have more than 30000, which is equivalent to more than 10 million of your and our school''s wealth. If you don''t bring in high-end scientific research talents and enjoy the national special allowance, do you think you can afford to live in a house in the center of Xiangfang and have a maid to serve you comfortably? Can a housekeeper keep your yard in order? Do you think you can afford guangjuxuan''s takeout every day? Do you think you can get out of a carriage and into a soft sedan? " You know, it''s a luxury to travel in this era with carriages and soft sedans.


    Lin Lang raised his head and found that he had nothing to refute. She has also converted that about one currency here is equivalent to modern RMB 300 yuan, more than 36000, indeed more than 10 million... In modern times, it is a proper multimillionaire. Tens of millions... Unfortunately, it will be gone soon


    She lowered her head silently. Seeing that the bamboo slips of the military book still fell on the ground, she bent over to pick them up, shrugged and said, "well, you won!" She also knew that she was used to spending lavishly... If it weren''t for Zhuo Xi, she couldn''t have saved so much money or spent so much money. However, it seems that so much money is useless now... What dividend funds are you fighting for


    After that, she sat down in a chair and handed the bamboo slips up, "these have been changed. I can only say that I can''t fulfill the task of sitting in the museum!" She really came to break the contract. I thought it would be easier to destroy it by preemptive action... The silver money will be redeemed and returned to her in a few days. However, we can''t take cloth coins, but we can take some jewelry... Er, maybe we can go back and consider it again


    Zhuo Xi was silent for a moment and suddenly asked, "where are you going?"


    Lin Lang said in surprise, "how do you know?"


    Chunnuan was also surprised.


    "You even have to give up tens of millions of dollars... These days, you suddenly take the initiative to silence these military books. Is that why you want to leave?" Zhuo Xi stared into her eyes.


    Lin Lang sighed, "the queen is really wise..."


    "Do you really want to go?" Zhuo Xi thought about these days and really found that she was reluctant to give up.


    "You are now living in a pink bubble of happiness. Naturally, you can''t understand my feeling of being alone... Speaking of it, you two have made up, but you don''t say thank you."


    "You can figure this out sooner or later. How can I thank you? So, are you for Cui Jiu? You still have to take Cui Jiu? " Zhuo Xi said.


    Lin Lang took a deep breath, "if it weren''t for him, I would really hate to leave..."


    "But now he regards you as an enemy to destroy the country. Is it useful for you to take him away?" Zhuo Xi struggled.


    Some said sadly, "it''s all your husband''s fault. It''s a coincidence to use zisangguo to test the iron gun. Now Cui Jiu has completely ignored me. They all think I killed them. But none of them had reflected. I was born in Zisang and was happy with Cui jiuliang. Cui Jiu asked his father and mother to marry me when he was Crown Prince... If I hadn''t been chased and killed by them for so many years, wouldn''t the pattern of the world change greatly if I married Cui Jiu? Why don''t they reflect on how many opportunities they have lost? "


    "No, I guess they have deeply reflected, and understand that the lost opportunity can''t come back, so they can only hate you! Where are you going to take him so you can start over? " Zhuo Xi stared at the blood jade on her hand.


    Lin Lang took out a red thing from his neck and approached Zhuo Xi. "You know, there is a place that can make his regret and his family feelings meaningless. He can only love me and depend on me!"


    Zhuo Xi stared at the thing hanging around Lin Lang''s neck, took a breath, trembled her fingertips and wanted to touch it.


    Lin Lang stepped back and nodded definitely, "Zhuo Xi, I won''t hide it from you. What I''ve been looking for is the zhenhun jade in your hand! I know it. I need it. I can''t wait any longer. "


    Zhuo Xi stared at the phoenix tail on her forehead.

 Chapter 197

    Jing Yuan was greatly surprised when he read the war book sent by Lin lang. he thought of the military school Zhuo Xi had passed on this premise. He felt that he had made great achievements, so he called Wu Xing over.


    Wu Xing came in and saluted.


    Jing Yuan raised his hand and said, "Wu Xing, have you been with me for eight years? In the past eight years, you have been promoted from an unknown soldier in the barracks to today''s sixth grade commander. Think you''re almost twenty this year? Yesterday Xi''er also blamed me for missing your marriage and asked me to give you a grace. Do you have a favorite? "


    Wu Xing made a big red face and quickly bowed his head and said, "if you can''t succeed in your career, how dare you kiss?"


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "most of the men get married at 14. Your son is five years old when he is your age. If you do as you say, if you don''t succeed, don''t discuss your relatives. What can fourteen men do? Isn''t it impossible to talk about marriage in this world? "


    Wu Xing still resisted, "getting a wife is a major event in life. I''m afraid I''ll miss my lover''s life..."


    Jing Yuan sank his face. "What are you going to do?"


    Wu Xing looked hesitant and said with a bitter smile, "Your Majesty, Weichen, Weichen dare to ask for something!"


    Jing Yuan said displeased, "just tell me!"


    "I heard that you use your arms like a God. I didn''t get to see you last time. Now the southern expedition army stays in Jiahe city. I want to see the divine fire and iron gun!" Wu Xing has been working for Jin Yuwei. Last time Jing Yuan was in a hurry. He asked to go with him, but he didn''t answer. Later, I heard that the southern expedition had many miracles, and my heart was itchy, so I always worried about it.


    Jing Yuan last time asked Wu Xing to stay in the palace to maintain order because Zhuo Xi was unconscious. In case something happened to Zhuo Xi, he could take care of one or two as the eldest brother. After hearing Wu Xing''s words, he was surprised, "do you still want to experience in the military camp?"


    Wu Xing raised his head, "yes, king. Wei Chen came from a military camp and wanted to fight on the battlefield and make contributions to killing the enemy. Now, the war in the north of Wuliang is not calm, and the war in the south is approaching. Wei Chen is uneasy, so he asks the king for a grace to let Wei Chen participate in the war in the south! "


    Jing Yuan thought of the Wu family''s attack on the Duke and said, "you are now the eldest son of the Wu family. You may attack the Duke and Enyin''s descendants in the future. You don''t have to go to the battlefield to accumulate military skills. Are you embarrassed by the fact that the Wu family has not been listed as a son of the world? "


    Wu Xing shook his head, "no, the Wu family is blessed by the queen. When Wei Chen joined the army with an iron heart, he made an oath. In this life, one is to reassure the people and protect the country, the other is to open up territory and expand territory. He is not afraid of death. It''s not uncommon for Wu Xing to attack the Lord! But I was afraid of the impermanence of the battlefield and missed a good family woman for nothing. I just didn''t want to discuss my relatives. "


    Jing Yuan nodded, "good man is ambitious, but the south is recuperating now. I still have a big plan to implement. If you are determined to fight on the battlefield, you have plenty of opportunities, not at this time. However, Xi''er has a headache for your marriage. In my opinion, it''s not too late to discuss marriage first and then go to the battlefield. "


    As soon as Wu Xing heard what he said, he hesitated and said, "so, everything depends on the king and the queen."


    Jing Yuan waved his hand, "you have parents. When can your sister and brother-in-law decide the marriage? You''d better hurry home and consult with your mother! "


    Wu Xing said in a positive tone, "I will obey your orders. But the king has ordered that Wei Chen should go through fire and water and never quit. "


    Jing Yuan laughed and threw a roll of bamboo slips in front of him. "What about this book first?"


    When Wu Xing saw that the king had thrown him a roll of bamboo slips, he looked at a few pages curiously, and his face changed greatly. He immediately knelt down and said, "my Lord, I''m not very frightened that I have won the king''s trust!"


    "What do you see?" Jing Yuan asked with a smile.


    "Since ancient times, the book of war has been kept secret. It is extremely exquisite and dull. I want to study it carefully..."


    "Sure enough, it came here with blood on the battlefield. When I saw this beautiful trick, I knew it was the book of war. Come here, I have something to do with you! "


    Wu Xing approached the book case. The more he listened, the more excited he looked


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Jing Yuan felt that Zhuo Xi was a little strange recently. He often tossed and turned at night and couldn''t sleep. Sometimes he was stunned. He asked, and she just shook her head.


    A few months ago she was in a coma, and the fear of being aloof floated back to his mind.


    But seeing her awake, he didn''t know where his fear came from. I had to accompany her as soon as I was free, walk with her, greet the empress dowager, go out of the palace with her, and even visit Xiyan Yangsheng hall with her


    He still remembers that yesterday, he accompanied her and the Empress Dowager to Xiyan Yangsheng hall, but met an unexpected person.


    Originally, he wanted to avoid going to Fenglai Pavilion opposite to have tea, but he found that a familiar man came down from a carriage. The middle-aged man helped his wife down the carriage carefully and watched her enter Xiyan Yangsheng hall. He asked Wuhe to call the middle-aged man to meet him.


    The man went up to the private room of Fenglai Pavilion and found that it was Shengjia here. He was so surprised that he had to kneel down immediately. Jing Yuan motioned him to sit down. "Don''t be polite, Gongsun. Why are you here?"


    Gongsun Li bowed and carefully sat half an ass on the opposite side of the king. "I feel alternating cold and heat recently. I took several pills without effect. It is said that doctor Hong in the health care hall has been conditioning her body, so I asked him to see what the disease is."


    "Speaking of illness, did the cabinet receive the official document sent by Jing Hua a few days ago?"


    Gongsun Li nodded, "the cabinet received an urgent play from Junyao city yesterday. Border officers and soldiers are most afraid of having a hot head. On the same day, the cabinet urgently called Wu Yizheng of the imperial medical department for consultation. Wu Yizheng and two royal doctors immediately set out for the garrison of the southern expedition. The cabinet resolution has been sent to the upper study. The king must not have seen the rest today. After tomorrow''s ruling is printed, you can start with your official documents. "


    A few days ago, Jing Hua sent a secret report that 80000 Southern expeditionary troops were stationed in a border town called Jiahe city on the border between yuanzisang and tengju. I don''t know whether the weather was hot and humid. Many soldiers were cold and hot at one time. The military doctor prescribed several patches of medicine, which had little effect.


    Junyao City affairs were naturally sent to the cabinet first. However, Jing Hua was the governor of the former princes of Zisang. He felt that the matter could be big or small, so he hastened to report it to the king alone.


    Gongsun Li is a member of the cabinet. Naturally, he learned about it at the first time.


    Jing Yuan nodded. The disposal was in line with the procedure and was more appropriate.


    "How many children are there in Aiqing''s house?"


    "Two sons and one daughter, the eldest son Yin en is in Kyoto Wei, and the youngest son is ten years old this year..."


    They talked about some family affairs.


    When it was almost midnight, Wuhe got a report that the queen came out with the Empress Dowager and was ready to go back to the palace.


    In view of the attention they received from the front door last time, they entered and left from the side door in a low-key way this time.


    Jing Yuan waited for them to come out at the side door.


    The Empress Dowager came out with Zhuo Xi with a happy face.


    Jing Yuan went up to help the Empress Dowager''s arm, but said to Zhuo Xi, "what magic did you use to cherish Yan Yangsheng hall? Why do you go in and come out as if you were several years younger? The mother''s face is particularly obvious. I see that the mother will be at least ten years younger. "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "you mouth, how come you live more and more?"


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "maybe you''re getting younger and younger. Don''t you allow me to pretend to be tender?" The word "pretending to be tender" was heard when joking with Zhuo Xi once, so it was also used.


    The Empress Dowager and Zhuo Xi laughed.


    Jing Yuan Da Le, "empress mother, why are you so happy?"


    The Empress Dowager took a look at Zhuo Xi, smiled and didn''t answer.


    Zhuo Xi was also full of joy, but she looked around and whispered to him, "I''ll tell you when I get back."


    The Empress Dowager got into the carriage in a happy mood.


    Jing Yuan also helped Zhuo Xi to the carriage.


    When Jing Yuan was close to Zhuo Xi, he felt a fragrance coming. He couldn''t help kissing her white and tender face, "it''s so fragrant. You didn''t really cast a spell in the health hall, did you? "


    Zhuo Xi stroked his white and tender skin comparable to 28 women, "if your skin is not so good, I will also take you for a maintenance to let you experience what whitening and tender skin is. However, wait a few more years. When you get old, I will take you to do the anti wrinkle and anti-aging treatment, and you will know whether you have cast a spell! "


    Jing Yuan was stunned. "Can men also look good?"


    "Of course, it''s OK, but the customers of Xiyan Yangsheng hall are all women. For the sake of avoiding suspicion, they don''t receive men. But if you need it next time, I''ll open the back door and let you go ~ "


    Zhuo Xi just finished saying that, and immediately realized that he was wrong. His cheeks flushed and covered his mouth.


    Jing Yuan laughed and put his hand on her slightly convex stomach. "With this Buddha, you can''t get in any back door or front door!"


    Zhuo Xi became angry and grabbed his palm and bit it.


    Jing Yuan hugged her and said, "I''m really looking forward to it. Do you say, is this child a boy or a girl?"


    "Boys and girls are the same." Zhuo Xi said reflexively.


    "Well, madam is right. It''s the same for boys and girls. We have a long time to come and can regenerate..."


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t let go of the matter, but suddenly thought of the child she lost when she didn''t know, and asked: "the Empress Dowager was poisoned, we hurried back to Kyoto. I had abdominal pain and bleeding on my way, thinking it was just a month. But it''s actually a miscarriage, isn''t it? You knew that, didn''t you? How did you know? "


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment, but said with ease, "I have been entangled with the poison of cold fragrance since I was young, and I have also learned some fur to feel the pulse. On that day, Xiao soul said that you had abdominal pain and bleeding, so he took your pulse for you. Just know that it may be miscarriage. After that, I went back to Kyoto and asked Fengxin to check your pulse for you, so that you wouldn''t bother and went back to the Wu family for rest. " He hugged her tightly and continued, "Xi''er, speaking of it, you really suffered a lot with me. I have it all in mind. You see, it''s all hard and sweet, isn''t it? We have a baby again. He must be smart and healthy! "

 Chapter 198

    Isn''t that hard evidence that close relatives can''t marry? Zhuo Xi felt another pain and asked, "hasn''t uncle Yao replied?"


    His heart tightened, "it should be fast." Remembering their appearance when they just came out, he changed the topic and said, "what happy event did you meet in there? The mother was so happy that she couldn''t close her mouth! "


    Zhuo Xi was also happy. "It''s sister Qian and sister mo. they also came to the health care hall. Guess what they''re all here for? "


    "What else can your woman do when she comes to Xiyan Yangsheng hall? Either beauty or health! "


    Zhuo Xi whispered a few words.


    Jing Yuan stared, "they have been married for nearly twenty years..."


    Zhuo Xi doesn''t think so. "A woman gets married early and gets married at the age of 14 or 15. Even if she gets married for 20 years, it''s only thirty-four or five years. It''s not impossible to give birth to an old woman at most." Since they got advice on Mingxiao mountain, they came to the health care hall for conditioning. They didn''t want to be pregnant one after another.


    "That''s good. The two princes had only one daughter under their knees and were not allowed to take concubines. They were anxious. Now they can rest assured. "


    "However, Yanling County Ji is about to reach the hairpin this year, but she hasn''t got anything else to do. Elder sister Qian is a little worried. Do you have any suitable person? "


    Jing Yuan pondered, "although the three princes are empty now, Jiuqing is in the cabinet, led by Xichi and Gongsun Li. Xichi kills and cuts fruit, and there are no children at home. However, Gongsun Li''s eldest son is the commander of Kyoto Wei. He is just a six grade official. However, Gongsun Li will be promoted to Sangong sooner or later. The eldest son can attack the Duke in the future, and he is young and promising. I don''t know how much better than those noble sons of Hou Bo''s house. You can ask elder sister Qian what she means. "


    Zhuo Xi was dazed by these marriages recently. "There are Luo Yuan, Xiaojun Ji... And big brother and second brother... Forget it, I''d better give it to the empress tomorrow! She''s keen to be the matchmaker! I''ll just control the Wu family, and I won''t make trouble for you! "


    Jing Yuan laughed, "well, in the future, just take care of our children''s marriage."


    They talked and laughed and soon arrived at the palace.


    It was the end of unitary time to settle down in Ning''an palace. They had dinner and took a walk in the back garden. In September, although it was the turn of summer and autumn, suddenly there was an autumn tiger. It was hot and humid for a while, and mosquitoes were four o''clock.


    Not long ago, I saw a cowhide letter coming in from the Spring Festival Gala.


    Jing Yuan opened it and looked at it. First he looked happy, and then he looked worried. He handed the letter to Zhuo Xi, took a long sigh of relief and hugged her fiercely, "so you can rest assured!"


    Zhuo Xi knew what it was. She was good at shaking her hand and holding the letter. After reading it at a glance, her tears fell, "no, no, it''s good..." the big stone pressed on her heart finally put down, and she was glad that she didn''t do anything stupid to the baby. If there was anything, she would regret it.


    However... She looked at the second half of the letter carefully and muttered, "first she yawned and felt weak, then she shivered, then she had a short time of fever, headache, dry mouth, thirsty, sweating all over her body, and her body cooled after the heat subsided..." this symptom seems familiar to her eyes.


    She thought of gongsunli mentioned in the carriage and said, "today I was in the Yangsheng hall. It seems that Mrs. gongsunli is also seeing a doctor. Dr. Hong also said that she was suffering from alternating cold and heat... "


    Jing Yuan also felt strange and hurriedly told the soldiers of Jiahe city who had this disease sent by Jing Hua.


    Zhuo Xi felt that the situation was serious. "The cabinet said it had drafted a resolution? In the study? Let''s go and have a look. " While calling chunnuan, he called Yu Meng, who had come back to visit her a few days ago, to the study. In Yu Meng''s school, the master''s family had a happy event and gave them seven days off. Yu Meng came back to visit her and brought her some "translated" medical books. Seeing that Yu mengke had a few days off, she asked someone to clean up a small room for him in the duty room of the outer palace and let him stay for a few days. Seeing that he was interested in medical books, she asked someone to bring him some volumes of medical books and let Xiaobai get together with him for a few days.


    Jing Yuan took her hand, went out, took a soft sedan and went to the study.


    The letters were almost the same as those written in Jing''s study.


    Jing Yuan asked Wu Yizheng to come.


    Zhuo Xi sent people to Xiyan Yangsheng hall and invited the sitting doctor Hong Quan to come.


    Yu Meng arrived soon and gave them a gift.


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "Xiao Meng hasn''t seen him for months. How tall is he?"


    Yu menggong said modestly, "the queen once taught that people can''t grow without knowledge. Little Meng has been favored by the king and the queen. He not only went to school to read and reason, but also studied medical books. I really appreciate it! "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "sure enough, after a few days of study, he dropped his schoolbag. Come here and test your time. Look, what''s the disease? "


    She handed him the paper with the disease.


    He read it again and said in doubt, "some symptoms like cold and heat exchange can be solved by adding and subtracting Chaihu drink. However, if it were so simple, jiahecheng military doctor would not be helpless. Is there anything strange? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and praised, "although you only know the skin, it''s not easy to have your own thinking. I don''t know much about it. I''d better wait until Wu Yizheng and Lord Hong Quan come to see it together. "


    Soon, Dr. Wu Yizheng and Dr. Hong Quan also came. After seeing the disease, they said it was a disease of "cold and heat exchange". There are also military prescriptions in the folds handed over by Junyao city. It seems that they are all symptomatic. Several people still don''t understand why they are invalid in the middle of the night.


    Jing Yuan saw that Zhuo Xi was really sleepy, so he asked her to go back and rest first, and printed the folding of the inner house all night, so that the two medical officials sent by Doctor Wu could start early in the morning.


    Unexpectedly, the next day, speechless sent a message to Ning''an palace. Since the last word of silence was given to the eye liner of the major medical shops in the city, there was often news of illness coming in.


    "Tell the queen, recently, all the major medical centers have received several cases of cold and heat exchange, all of which are invalid with the addition and subtraction of Chaihu drink. Early this morning, huichuntang received a patient who said that he had been cold and hot since the day before yesterday. The medicine had little effect. This morning, he had abdominal pain and made ink urine. "


    Zhuo Xi was so surprised that the cup in her hand fell off, "ink urine?" Something familiar flashed through her mind, but she couldn''t remember it for the moment.


    She told chunnuan, "let''s go to the study and say that we won''t have lunch today. Speechless, get ready. I want to go to the rejuvenation hall to have a look. "


    She hurried back to the inner hall to change her casual clothes. The Spring Festival Gala that changed her clothes looked worried, "madam, are you pregnant and going in and out of the hospital so often?"


    She glanced at the Spring Festival Gala. "What are you worried about?"


    The Spring Festival Gala stammered, "last time it was hand, foot and mouth disease. Although it only spread among children, the maidservant was also shocked into a cold sweat... This time I''m afraid it''s a disease..."


    Zhuo Xi had the same worry in her heart, but she said with relief, "people all over the world eat grain. It''s normal to have similar diseases. Although several people have similar symptoms, they can not be characterized as an epidemic... Everything has to be confirmed. "


    "However, to be on the safe side, spring is warm." She said, "you ask wordless to send some people to ask those patients whether they have contacted any common things and people recently."


    The warm spring should be out.


    Zhuo Xi changed her clothes and took the Spring Festival Gala to the door. She was about to board the car. The little eunuch column around Wuhe ran panting, "madam, the king has an order. The king said, "the situation is urgent. Please wait here."


    She looked at her casual clothes and knew that he knew it was inconvenient for her to go to the library, so she got into the carriage and waited with her eyes closed, thinking about the disease. Ink urine... Is black blood urine. Very few diseases can lead to black blood urine... Where have you seen it before?


    After a while, Jing Yuan got into the car, pressed her shoulder to get up and salute, sat beside her and told the outside, "go."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "Your Majesty, are you going too?"


    Jing Yuan handed her a piece of parchment.


    She unfolded and saw that it was the second urgent play sent by Jing Hua, "it took 800 Li to hurry up, and I just received it." Jing Yuan said, "he said that three out of ten soldiers in the South were infected with the disease. Some of them had an acute disease, and more than a dozen had died in just three days. Those soldiers are often trained and in good health. With such an urgent disease, the military doctors are helpless, and the situation is becoming more and more urgent. "


    She muttered, "if it is an epidemic, how can it appear in Kyoto, Jiahe city and Gelao nationality at the same time? Where is the source? "


    Jing Yuan said with a solemn look, "it may be Jiahe city. There was the first place where the disease was found. Later, someone sent a letter from Jiahe city to Kyoto. On the Gelao side, I guess it''s the Gelao family. The family''s parents are soldiers of the southern expedition. After recuperation, they returned to their hometown. "


    She grabbed his hand and said, "come on! Send someone to ask the messenger from Jiahe city. How is he? Do people who come into contact with him have symptoms? "


    Jing Yuan called out, "five rivers."


    Wuhe had been listening for a long time. Hearing the speech, he immediately replied, "I understand. I immediately sent someone to ask."


    Soon the carriage arrived at the rejuvenation hall. The shopkeeper already knew that the person who came last time was the queen. How dare you neglect it? At the moment, he saw a handsome man help her out of the carriage together. He was so surprised that his chin was about to fall off and knelt down immediately.


    Jing Yuan took a look and didn''t speak. He went straight with Zhuo Xi into the room of the Huichun hall, which was isolated last time.


    Wordless has asked people to clean the room, and asked the Queen''s advice to move the old doctor of huichuntang and the patient with ink urine. Wu Yizheng, Hong Quan and Yu Meng also followed.


    The old doctor said there was another similar disease, but the mild one happened to be here. After asking for their consent, they also moved over.


    Zhuo Xi covered his face with white yarn, then put on his gloves, checked it, and asked the old doctor about his symptoms, which were basically similar to those described in Jing Hua''s letter. He pressed his five internal organs and found that the pressing pain in the liver and kidney was very heavy.


    Not long after, wordless and the people sent by Wuhe to inquire came back separately. Zhuo Xizi asked about them in detail.

 Chapter 199

    The soldier who came back from Jiahe city to deliver the letter also suffered from cold and heat, but the family he came into contact with was not infected. On the contrary, there are patients in various medical schools. Some are infected by both people in a family, some are infected by maidservants serving, and some people close to them do not get sick, but their neighbors who have no contact get sick


    And Mrs. Gongsun, who is the soldier''s aunt. On the day he returned from delivering the letter, Xiaobing went to Gongsun''s house to meet his aunt and spoke for a while. As a result, Mrs. Gongsun fell ill. But the rest of Gongsun''s family were safe


    It seems chaotic, but Zhuo Xi already knows that this must be an infectious disease. The basic early symptoms are headache, fever, cold and heat, sweating, hepatosplenomegaly in the middle stage, weakness in the whole body and death in the later stage. But before death, some people make ink urine, others don''t... So the most terrible thing is that they don''t know what symptoms appear, and they will face death in the later stage


    It seems that the route of infection may be contact infection, but it may not be contact infection. None of the doctors in the library is infected.


    What kind of infectious disease is it


    She placed the patient and asked someone to bring the sick soldier over for questioning.


    When the soldier was carried over, his cheeks were deep and his face was bloodless. But people are still sober, talking and grinding their teeth, and their expression is relatively clear.


    Jing Yuan took Zhuo Xi to a chair far away and asked in a deep voice, "young brother, do you know that after you came back from Jiahe City, two or three out of ten of the 80000 soldiers of the southern expedition also contracted the same disease as you?"


    The soldier struggled to get up and was held down by the people on the side, "why, how, will this happen?"


    Jing Yuan Wen said, "so we are looking for a cure. You tell us everything you know. "


    The soldier nodded, "small, you must know everything."


    Zhuo Xi asked, "little brother, before you set out, what were the symptoms of the sick people in the army? What was wrong with you? "


    "At first, the people who got sick in the army just had a headache and fever, and sometimes got cold. The military doctors said that they were acclimatized. They occasionally caught cold and heat, and just used a few doses of medicine, so everyone didn''t care. But a few days later, the number of people infected increased, and the soup and medicine had little effect, so someone panicked. The little one was completely fine before he set out, so he sent the little one out to deliver the letter. "


    "When did you feel uncomfortable?"


    "It''s nothing to rush all the way. After completing the task, the whole body relaxed and began to heat up. "


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "how many days did you walk on the road?"


    "Seven days." It seems that the disease has an incubation period, which can last up to seven days. Yuanzisang is located in the southeast of Wuliang. Jiahe city is the north of yuanzisang. It can directly reach Kyoto all the way west. Xiaobing suddenly realized something and said in fear, "did Xiaobing catch the disease in Kyoto? Little damn, little damn! "


    Zhuo Xi comforted him, "don''t panic. I don''t think you did it on purpose. Think carefully and tell me about your daily life in Jiahe city. "


    The soldier wiped his tears and said, "I was originally a scout from Liangzhou. I entered Zisang with the king all the way and occupied the thirteen cities with joy. When I was stationed in Jiahe City, I had accumulated 46 military achievements. I wanted to give a reward to the families in the suburban village of Beijing when I returned to Beijing to make them happy... Unexpectedly... "


    Jing Yuan coughed, "this disease is threatening. You''d better tell the situation in Jiahe city. Your 80000 brothers are still suffering..."


    "Little shit. When I first arrived in Jiahe City, the weather was damp and stuffy. It was a little uncomfortable. But I soon got used to it. There are dense forests and often rain. We are stationed in the mountains and forests outside the city. We have to turn over and dry our bedding every time there is sun... "


    Zhuo Xi''s spirit flashed, "you said you were stationed in the mountains and forests? Why not be stationed in an open area? "


    80000 people, you can''t live in the city.


    "To the East and north of Jiahe city is the Jiahe mountains, and over the mountains is the tengju territory. Jiahe mountains are long and wooded. There are swamps and wetlands in the forest from time to time. We don''t dare to get close to them. We only choose the open space with slightly flat terrain next to the river to station... "


    Swamp! Zhuo Xi jumped up, "what''s the area of the swamp?"


    The soldier thought for a moment and replied, "the forest is wet, and I don''t dare to come near, but another brother has explored it. The swamp and wetland stretch for at least ten miles."


    Swamp, wetland, hot weather... Zhuo Xi was excited and held Jing Yuan''s hand, "it''s malaria, it must be malaria! Where mosquitoes fly? " The malignant terminal symptom of malaria is black blood urine! Therefore, wherever patients go, some people are infected, and some have not been contacted are also infected, not whether they are contacted, but mosquito bites!


    The soldier was also excited. "Yes, as soon as we got there, we were bitten all over. Later, the military doctor found hay and smoked mosquitoes, which was better! But we often practice in the woods, and we have to be bitten to get a big bag on our face! "


    The old doctor who had been listening asked, "excuse me for being stupid. I don''t know what kind of disease this malaria is?"


    Zhuo Xi patted his forehead. They didn''t understand malaria at this time, "it''s miasma! It is spread by mosquito bites! "


    She thought the doctors in front of her would look relieved, but she saw that they were more decadent. Wu Yizheng, in particular, stepped back and murmured, "it''s miasma! How could it be miasma? "


    Hong Quan also said, "Mom... No, madam, the miasma has always been irresolvable... You can only add or subtract it with Huangqin Chaihu Decoction, and you''re resigned to fate..."


    When the soldier heard this, he fell on the board and burst into tears.


    Jing Yuan also has an iron face.


    Zhuo Xi said confidently, "no, I have a prescription. I don''t say it must be cured, but nine times out of ten it can be cured. "


    Jing Yuan''s spirit perked up. "Madam, are you serious?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled and called chunnuan in a loud voice, "bring pen and ink!"


    The spring ink and thin pen were held excitedly.


    Zhuo Xi wrote a prescription with ink and handed it to the old doctor, "immediately grab the medicine and fry it for the little brother. Three stickers should be effective."


    The soldier immediately got up, knelt on the board, kowtowed and said in tears, "thank you, madam! Little thank you for the 80000 brothers, madam! "


    The old doctor asked suspiciously after reading the prescription, "madam, other drugs are not a problem. I don''t know what this Artemisia annua is?"


    They were just elated, and their mood was like a basin of cold water.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "you don''t have Artemisia?" Tu Youyou, the only Nobel Prize winner in China, has made great contributions to China''s medical cause by refining artemisinin. Where do you know that no one has found Artemisia annua in this era? This is the most critical drug for the treatment of malaria


    The doctors shook their heads


    The atmosphere of the room quieted down.


    Dr. Hong said, "madam, don''t worry. We both know the disease and the prescription, but without this medicine, we''ll let someone find it immediately. I wonder what this medicine looks like? Have you seen her, madam? Do you remember how big it is? "


    Hope immediately rose in everyone''s eyes.


    Zhuo Xi tried her best to think about the fresh picking of Artemisia annua and found that she had not really seen Artemisia annua... She had to draw a pattern according to her impression and let people look everywhere


    When Yu Meng saw it, he was also very attentive and asked him to look for it


    Jing Yuan returned to Ning''an palace with a heavy Zhuo Xi on her face and comforted her in turn, "now the prescription has been made, but no one knows about this herbal medicine. It''s already a great joy. You can wait at ease. Don''t be too depressed when they come to you... "


    After this day, Zhuo Xi began to taste herbs. People send similar herbs every day. Zhuo Xi can only taste everything because she can''t confirm it, trying to find out the familiar taste in her memory.


    They sent some suspected samples to the rejuvenation hall and asked them to add them to the prescription, but in vain


    The next day, the patient with black blood urine died... The fear of the disease in Kyoto began to spread... But some people said that the disease was spread through mosquito bites, so they took a headscarf and a towel to wrap the skin all over their body so that mosquitoes could not bite.


    On the third day, Yu Meng also brought some herbs, "sister, I went back to the verdant mountain. I used to go there by the swamp. It seems that there are several herbs that are very similar to your drawing, so I picked some. Which one do you think? "


    Zhuo Xi looked. They were very similar. She asked someone to wash them and came in. She was about to take off a piece and put it in her mouth, but Jing Yuan rushed in and photographed the leaves in her hand¡° Xi''er! "


    Zhuo Xi looked at him in surprise, "what''s the matter?"


    "These herbs were collected by the poisonous marsh. What if they were poisonous? You still have a baby in your stomach! "


    Yu Meng was also in a cold sweat, "sister, the king said yes. You''d better be careful not to hurt yourself. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "it''s not easy to know whether it''s poisonous or not. Go and call Xiaobai."


    Yu Meng suddenly realized that he hurried to Xiaobai''s residence to find it.


    Jing Yuan hugged her and sighed, "Xi''er, you are really my lucky star. No, you are my lucky star..."


    Zhuo Xi thought, "I have a hunch that the herbs Xiao Meng found this time are likely to have Artemisia annua. It is said that one thing falls to another. Although there is only a small piece of poison marsh in the verdant mountain, there is no sunshine all year round. There will be a slight miasma. Where there is miasma, there may be its nemesis... "The more she said, the more excited she was, the more reasonable she thought.


    Yu Meng soon brought Xiaobai in. Zhuo Xi asked Xiaobai to smell the herbs and only shook his head.


    Zhuo Xi put her heart down, tasted these kinds carefully, picked out the two tastes that were very similar, and sent them to the rejuvenation hall to be used as medicine respectively.


    The next day, good news came, saying that the medicine with thin leaves had an effect. Jing Yuan was overjoyed and asked Yu Meng to take people to pick a large number of plants at the edge of the green mountain swamp. All the patients in Kyoto were isolated in huichuntang, and it was widely told that if anyone found similar symptoms, they all went to huichuntang for treatment.


    After another day''s observation, it was confirmed that the fine leaf plant was indeed effective. Jing Yuan sent people 800 Li to Jiahe city and asked the local military doctor to find the Artemisia annua for medicine. They also sent a large package to the Gelao people and wrote a letter saying that if these were not enough, they would find a way to look for it in the mountains, forests and swamps


    In just a few days, huichuntang was overcrowded. Because of the uncontrollability of mosquitoes and some people''s different physical conditions, the incubation period was not found until the attack. When they were isolated, they had played the role of the source of infection for two days. Therefore, there was an endless stream of infected people. But fortunately, with the prescription, there was no death


    Another official from Shuntian Prefecture in Kyoto said that since the transmission route is through mosquitoes, while preventing mosquito bites, they can also find ways to kill mosquitoes... So they set off a campaign to kill mosquitoes and insects


    Later, the weather gradually cooled down, and there were fewer mosquitoes, so it gradually subsided.

 Chapter 200

    After all this, Zhuo Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.


    On the ninth day of October, the wife of general Pingyuan sent a message that a little aunt of her mother''s family had given birth to a baby boy safely. She said that Wu LianBo''s house sent someone to ask, hoping to pass on the baby boy to Wu LianBo''s name, become Wu LianBo''s son, and be a good Duke in the future. Ask your mother if it''s appropriate.


    Zhuo Xi said to the visitor that it also depends on whether the new boy''s eight characters coincide with Wu LianBo. Please take the left of the waiting clock to calculate before you can reply and let people go back first.


    That night, Zhuo Xi told Jing Yuan about it. But Jing Yuan hesitated for a long time and decided to leave the matter to the Empress Dowager. After all, it was the blood of Jing Tai and the biological grandson of the Empress Dowager.


    On the second day, they went to the Empress Dowager''s place to say hello.


    The Empress Dowager was stunned for a long time before she realized that the concubine of the general Pingyuan was the beauty Wang who escaped from the sky, and the boy she gave birth to was naturally Jing''s blood.


    She was silent for a long time before she said, "ordinary royal blood, without merit, will be granted a marquis. If he could attack the count of wulianbo, he would not disgrace his origin. And that''s it. I hope he can grow up safely and smoothly. When he is free, he will come to the palace to see me, an old woman. In other words, after his adoption, he is also Jing Ling''s son. As a rule, he wants to call me grandma. "


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly comforted, "who said no, your grandson often goes to the palace to accompany you, which is naturally his filial piety! I looked at Uncle Wu LianBo and thought it was a good idea. I immediately sent someone to give an answer to the general''s house in Pingyuan. "


    The Empress Dowager looked at her for a long time and said to Jing Yuan angrily, "yuan''er, although it''s your responsibility to care about the world, how can you let Xi''er fool around?! She is now pregnant with your only child, and it is time for someone to take care of her! Besides, the month is still small. How can you be so careless?! She can''t go to such a dangerous place as the other day! "


    Jing Yuan stood up helplessly and confessed to the empress dowager, "empress dowager, it''s my son''s lack of consideration! My son came back in a cold sweat. After reflection, I decided that from now on, my son will accompany Xi''er every day. Where Xi''er goes, my son will go... "


    Not forbidding her to go anywhere, but accompanying her everywhere... The Empress Dowager shook her head and scolded, "is this what the king of your country should say?! You are now valuable, and your blood may be the son of heaven in the future. You can''t be careless. "


    Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan looked at each other.


    The Empress Dowager wet her eyes. "If yuan''er is willing to have more people in the harem, he won''t be afraid every day. He''s afraid that there''s something wrong with the only bone and blood in your abdomen. But since you are determined not to accept the empress, I can only look forward to you and Meimei, more children and more blessings... "


    Jing Yuan immediately stood up and said, "don''t worry, mother! Xi''er is the only person in the harem. Naturally, she wants to have more children! Mother, just wait. Your son will let you hold two children in three years and three children in five years! "


    Zhuo Xi glanced at Jing Yuan and asked leisurely, "can you live?" Dare you bet like this?


    The Empress Dowager swept away her sad face, laughed and said, "I''ll give it to you from the original anhou of Jingzhou! Lest he always write to AI Jia and say that AI Jia won''t help him... "


    Jing Yuan should be. The two said to the Empress Dowager for a while about the marriage of the two county girls, so they left and came out hand in hand.


    They walked back to Ning''an palace.


    Zhuo Xi was a little confused. "What happened to the former anhou of Jingzhou?"


    "It''s his daughter. She wants to go to the palace and find a wife."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "unexpectedly, you are still a sweet cake, attracting mosquitoes who don''t have eyes everywhere?"


    Jing Yuan wondered, "will mosquitoes bite the pastry? To sting, it''s also to sting the hot-blooded man! Besides, didn''t we just kill a group of mosquitoes a few days ago? If you want another one, kill it! "


    "What kind of hot-blooded man can you boast about! Who just boasted that he had two children in three years and three children in five years? "


    "Can''t a hot-blooded man hold two children in three years and three children in five years? Isn''t there you?... "


    The two joked for a while. Zhuo Xi talked about Wang Mei''s son again and sighed pitifully.


    Jing Yuan disagreed, "Wu Jinbo has no children and is old. If he succeeds, he must be loved by thousands. "


    "But it''s a generation difference. He was the grandson of Wu Jinbo, but he wanted to call him a father. How can Wang Meimei be his mother? "


    "The patriarchal clan naturally respects the husband''s family. Whether beauty Wang married brother Wang is naturally calculated according to the generation of Jing family. Even if he is the son of third sister Ling, the generation of the Empress Dowager will pass. "


    "Hey, did you say that if she married you, the children you two gave birth to would face the same dilemma in terms of address? It is reasonable to say that you and third sister Ling are sisters and brothers. Should your children call you father or uncle? "


    Jing Yuan felt cold for a while and hit her with a shudder. "They all said about the clan. Naturally, the husband''s family should prevail. In those years, the parents did not agree to this marriage for a while, which was also considered by their generation. However, the marriage between royal families always depends on whether it is suitable or not, whether it is beneficial or not, and seniority is never important. However, fortunately, I finally married you... "


    Zhuo Xi played around his fingers and said, "then again, you really didn''t have your share in Fengxin''s sending Wang Mei into the palace?"


    Jing Yuanyi said, "of course, there is no such thing. Are you the one who is indifferent and righteous? If I want to withdraw my marriage, I can put it forward directly to the Wang family. "


    "However," he glanced at her eagerly, "I told Feng Xin to think of a way to dissolve our engagement. Who knows she came up with such a way -- "


    She widened her eyes and thought of Feng Xin''s character of revenge, as well as the little conflict they had in Feiyu drunken Yuxuan that day. She couldn''t help but mourn for beauty Wang for three seconds in her heart.


    Another ten days later, Lin Lang threw a pile of bamboo slips in front of Zhuo Xi and gasped, "here are six Tao, Wei xuanzi and San Lue respectively. Your eldest brother is hardly human... He pestered me to explain the two military books in just a few days. I stayed up all night for seven hours before I came out. I don''t have the strength to speak any more! Tell him when you have time! "


    Wu Xing was sent by Jing Yuan to set up the teaching team of the military academy. She knew, "I can''t blame my big brother. You are the crystallization of the wisdom of thousands of military talents in China for 5000 years. People who know the goods know that this is definitely the best treasure in the world. Naturally, you will be eager to achieve something. If you work harder and finish these things, you can do your big things! "


    Lin Lang looked sad. "I haven''t seen him for nearly a month... I really want to take him away immediately... Let me go..."


    Zhuo Xi said in surprise, "he still won''t see you?"


    Lin Lang wailed, "I finally know why I came to this inexplicable era! Just to be tortured by him! I swear, this revenge is not a gentleman! "


    Zhuo Xi looked contemptuous, "I''m afraid it''s contained in her mouth and held in her heart for fear of falling..."


    Lin Lang stroked his hands and arms, "you, you are disrespectful, can even say such disgusting words."


    "You''re leaving. What am I afraid of! In other words, can you find a successor for the ending matter, the refining of Wulin mountain oil field? "


    Lin Lang wailed again, "no! Zhu Yuxuan''s elm head, how can I tell him that he can''t understand, and can only manage the oil stall! "


    Modern chemistry knowledge can not be learned in a short time. Zhuo Xi also understood, "forget it, you can simply teach him a way to purify oil into kerosene later. You can''t ask for more..."


    She gritted her teeth. "OK, I''ll go back to Wulin mountain next month and teach him again. Anyway, I''ll teach him the most basic. Try to go back before Christmas. " She looked pitifully at Zhuo Xi, "sister, can you let me go back before Christmas?"


    Zhuo Xi is more pitiful than her, "don''t say that you can have a beauty in your arms this Christmas and later Christmas. I can no longer see computers and mobile phones. I can no longer take beautiful photos and wear off shoulder evening dress... "


    Zhuo Xi knew that the small Phoenix Shaped Pendant hanging on Lin Lang''s neck could be embedded into the blood jade in his hand. On that day, in the 21st century, Lin Lang accidentally got this blood jade. He was curious to do this, so he put himself here.


    According to this logic, when the Phoenix Tail pendant is embedded into the blood jade again, it is possible to wear it back.


    Lin Lang''s idea is that since she and Cui Jiu are immortal in this era, it''s better to wear back to the 21st century together, and it''s possible to start from scratch.


    So that day, she asked Zhuo Xi very carefully, "if this method is feasible, do you want to go back to the 21st century together?"


    So when Zhuo Xi said this, Lin Lang said, "have you decided not to go with me?"


    "You have people you want to protect, so do I. His foundation is here. I have thought it over and must stay. " Zhuo Xi stroked her stomach with an expression of broken wrists.


    Lin Lang patted his head, "you are right. I didn''t know if I could go back, so I abetted you. Besides, I don''t know if I can take this thing with others. You said, "what if I go back by myself and Cui Jiu is not brought back by me?"


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "those jewels you redeemed have to be packed and tied tightly! If you wear it back alone, how can those antique jades be worth a few money. It''s not in vain for you to come here! "


    Lin Lang rushed up and grabbed her arm. "If so, why don''t you reward me more!" Zhuo Xi dodged her five fingers flexibly, "Hey, you can''t be greedy!"

 Chapter 201

    Chunnuan was frightened when she looked aside. She didn''t understand and didn''t intend to understand what to go back or what to Christmas. But most importantly, she understood that the queen would not go if she did not go back. That''s enough.


    Lin Lang laughed for a while and left.


    When I left, I saw a little boy holding a box with several bottles and cans in it. When he ran happily into the main hall, I vaguely heard him shouting happily, "sister, I''ve refined it!"


    She stopped at once.


    It was Yu Meng who came. After he found Artemisia annua, Zhuo Xi, on a whim, told him about Tu youyou''s extraction of artemisinin, and felt that if it could be extracted, the patient would not have to take the bitter soup. He was very interested and kept asking how to extract artemisinin.


    In fact, she didn''t understand. She only taught him the general method of distillation and purification of drugs and asked him to go back to the experiment. Equipment and utensils are scarce here. She didn''t expect him to succeed, but today he fell into the palace.


    Look at the box he presented, there are three small bronze cups and three jade cups, which contain some shallow green soup of different depths.


    He said happily, "this bronze cup was collected by the condensation method you told me when the soup was half hot and not boiling. This jade cup was collected when it was completely boiling... I wonder if it is useful?"


    A voice came in surprise, "what? You know condensation? Also know how to control the unknown temperature to make the liquid boil or not? "


    Zhuo Xi glanced, "Lin Lang, why are you back?"


    Lin Lang took Yu Meng by the shoulder. "If I don''t come back, how can I find this chemical genius? Little brother, how old are you this year? "


    Yu Meng moved his shoulder uneasily. "This sister and little brother are twelve years old."


    "Twelve?!" Lin Lang opened his mouth in surprise and tilted his thumb, "awesome!"


    She turned to Zhuo Xi, "didn''t you just ask me if Wulin mountain oil refining has found a successor? This is it! "


    Zhuo Xi also opened her mouth, "don''t point at someone in order to leave as soon as possible! He is only twelve years old. How can you judge that he can be your successor? " Is chemistry so easy to learn?


    "He knows how to control the boiling point and how to condense! Do you know, Zhu Yuxuan, I told him 30 times about the boiling point, but he still didn''t understand it! How do you want me to go on? "


    Zhuo Xi said helplessly, "even so, you have to ask others if Xiao Meng is willing to learn from you..."


    Lin Lang immediately took Xiao Meng''s shoulder and whispered, "little brother, your name is Xiao Meng. My sister told you that there is something that looks like black oil. Its name is oil. However, it is of great use to refine different things through some simple methods... Would you like to learn? "


    Zhuo Xi stared for a long time and shook her head. She was worried. If Xiao Meng could take over the technical work of Wulin mountain oil, it would undoubtedly reassure her most.


    She no longer cared about them. She picked up half of the memorials in front of her, which were all requests from the inner government for instructions about her birthday banquet, wrote a big "refutation", threw them aside and picked up the following one.


    Sure enough, Lin Lang successfully fooled Yu Meng into becoming her closing disciple with her three inch tongue.


    When the two came over, Yu Meng said to Zhuo Xi excitedly, "sister, I feel very interested in what master said about oil refining and want to learn from her as a teacher. Sister, promise me. "


    Zhuo Xi stroked her forehead, "if you even call your master, can the palace agree?"


    Lin Lang was overjoyed. "It''s settled. Tomorrow we''ll leave for Wulin mountain!" Without saying anything else, she took Yu Meng''s hand and left.


    As he walked, Yu Meng turned back and said goodbye to her.


    It''s like an arrow to return home! Zhuo Xi sighed.


    A few days later, the urgent report from Jiahe city was sent again. It was said that the Artemisia annua sent by the king had a miraculous effect. The soldiers had greatly improved after taking it. There were no new deaths except a few terminally ill patients. Jing Yuan considered the terrain of Jiahe city. In order to avoid the recurrence of large-scale epidemic disease, they were scattered to several customs cities near Jiahe city for rest.


    Not long ago, Gelao people also sent the news that the epidemic had been effectively controlled, and they were grateful.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    In November, the wife of general Pingyuan took Wu Jinbo''s new adopted son into the palace to thank the Empress Dowager. Zhuo Xi knew that she had to accompany her.


    The wife of general Pingyuan first apologized, saying that because Wu Jinbo had no women at home, she had to come by her stepsister with her brother to greet the Empress Dowager. After being polite, the nurse came forward with the child in her arms.


    The Empress Dowager looked carefully at the grandson who had just reached the full moon. Thousands of words were frozen in her heart and could not say anything.


    Zhuo Xi got round at the right time. "Empress mother, this child will be your grandson in the future. Why don''t you say anything?"


    The Empress Dowager quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and motioned to mother Su to take out a brocade box. "This is a little thought of mourning for the family. Madam can take it for Lang first."


    Pingyuan general''s wife Wang smiled and took over. The cover of the box was opened. She smiled and said, "Oh, what a delicate collar! I thank my mother for Lang''s reward! "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her head and exclaimed, "what a red gold collar with silk and treasure inlaid with jade and honey wax! The palace remembers that when the seventh brother was born last year, there was also one! " It means that she recognizes this grandson in her heart, which is the same as the treatment of the seventh Prince Jing Huan.


    The Empress Dowager smiled, "is Lang Zhi his nickname? Has your name ever been taken? "


    Wang quickly smiled, "Dad means that if Lang Zhi can get the Empress Dowager''s name, it must be his honor in this life!"


    The Empress Dowager had been worried about this for a long time, and was satisfied when she heard the speech. "Zuo Mu is happy and you are sad. Looking at home, it means joy, happiness and longevity, so she named it a oak word, okay?"


    Wang''s heart was determined, "Empress Dowager''s auspicious words must be an excellent word. When I got home, I told my father that my single name was oak. My ancestral spectrum was reported to the inner house. Please seal the son of God. " My sister pretended to die and gave birth to a dragon. Someone in the palace must know that now the Empress Dowager has personally taken the name next to the wood, indicating that she has recognized this blood to stay in the Wang family. This is the Ming Road. You don''t have to be afraid in the future. My sister suffered and my son became a brother... But this is the best result


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "it''s so good."


    Zhuo Xi also said with a smile, "Mu congle, my mother must hope that he will be happy forever. Sure enough, it''s a good name. In the future, when he gets older, he asks his wife to often let him come to the palace to see his grandmother. So as not to worry about my mother. "


    Wang respectfully replied, "my concubine obeys."


    Zhuo Xi sat for a while before leaving and returning to the palace.


    When I returned to Ning''an palace, I was about to call chunnuan to check her next schedule, but I saw her come in with red eyes.


    Zhuo Xi said in surprise, "spring is warm. What''s the matter? Who bullied you? "


    Chunnuan sucked his nose and didn''t speak.


    The spring, who was coming in to serve tea, saw him early and whispered, "queen, today, sister Xiao soul, no, sister Ji ruomin, sounded the four drums in front of Tingwei''s house in Kyoto. At the moment, sister Ji, I''m afraid she''s rolling the nail board... "


    Zhuo Xi shook her hand and poured the tea all over. "How do you want to roll the nail board?"


    "Since ancient times, people have sued officials and nailed themselves. If it weren''t for a big grievance, who would be willing to suffer from this rolling nail board? " Chunnuan sobbed and said, "sister Ji must have made up her mind to overturn the case for Lord Ji."


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "where''s Zi Ran?"


    Chunnuan glanced, "son ran, he forced sister Ji into such a desperate situation. I think he must be proud of where!" She still couldn''t let go of Ziran''s report on Xiao soul.


    Zhuo Xi had to enlighten her, "you''ve always been clever. Why can''t you understand such a thing? If Xiao soul is still the running script of Wupin inner palace, how can he overturn his father''s case in good faith? If she marries Zi Ran as Xiao soul, she can only be Xiao soul all her life. Even if she can make up her mind to ignore the grievances of her biological parents, if an incident happens one day, Zi Ran will fall into the name of shielding, and the palace will have a mistake of oversight. How could she leave such a handle for Ziran and the palace? So, confess your identity and let Zi Ran make his choice. But Zi Ran didn''t disappoint her. He denounced her in front of the palace, not in front of the king, or let the palace find a mistake and send her away. Xiao soul can also disappear, and Ji ruomin can also appear. "


    Chunnuan suddenly realized, "so if Lord Ji''s case is successfully overturned, she can marry Lord Ziran in good faith?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with a smile and nodded, "so don''t be too sharp. You think that adult Zi Ran has done something sorry for your sister Ji."


    Chunnuan jumped up again, "so that day, Ziran was sure that his mother would help her? Just in case... "She couldn''t go on, because she knew there was no such just in case. But she was angry again. "I didn''t expect that Lord Zi Ran even dared to calculate the queen!"


    "Let Ke min send someone to take care of her. If she is seriously injured, she can take medicine in time." She thought for a moment and ordered chunnuan. What do you plan? There will be plenty of opportunities to get it back in the future.


    Chunnuan immediately flew out.


    For a moment, she flew in, turned over her itinerary and read out her itinerary today.


    "Mrs. Wu Yuanbo?"


    Zhuo Xi repeated the strange name. Although the whole list of xungui''s house in buliang and xinzisang counties has been given to her, she still feels strange to many names.


    "Wu Yuanbo Liu''s family was granted the capital in Yizhou. The ancestor was the first general of the founding of the state of Yudian and later became king Zhong Wu. After five generations, the family had little potential. In the thirty second year of the Zhongyong incident, the Liu family remained silent, and later Yizhou was under the rule of Wuliang. King Wu read that he had a good way of governing Yizhou, and still gave Wu Yuanbo the title along his fief. "


    "Why did Mrs. Wu Yuanbo come here?"


    "She didn''t say anything important. She just said that she was glad to hear that the queen was granted the title, but didn''t come to congratulate her personally. It''s really impolite. This time, I came here to greet the Empress Dowager on her birthday. "


    "The mother''s birthday is at the end of November. It''s more than a month away. Why did she come so early?"


    It''s not clear about chunnuan. She just accepted the appointment of people who need to visit and arranged the schedule. As for why the other party didn''t tell her, she naturally didn''t know.


    Zhuo Xi met Wu Yuanbo''s wife Zhang with a strange mood.


    It was a middle-aged woman under forty, rich and talkative.


    It took her a full moment to talk about the scenery along the seven-day carriage ride from Yizhou to Kyoto. So chunnuan had to interrupt her and remind her, "the queen has only half an hour to see you. Madam, you''d better say what you mean."


    Zhang was a little embarrassed, so he quickly apologized, "my concubine is ignorant and dare not delay my mother''s precious time. Please forgive me. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "the Liu family defends Yizhou in the West for Wuliang. They are loyal. It doesn''t hurt to talk more about family habits. Now it''s autumn, just after the Hanyi Festival, it''s the next Yuan Festival, and then the Empress Dowager''s 50th birthday is coming. The facts in the palace are trivial. I don''t know Mrs. Liu came here, but she made a special trip to pay a birthday call to the Empress Dowager? "

 Chapter 202

    Zhang hurriedly said, "I had some old friends with the Empress Dowager many years ago. In recent years, my uncle was not allowed to enter the capital without an imperial edict, so my concubine also neglected to move around. This time, taking advantage of the opportunity to pay a birthday to the empress dowager, I brought my little girl to Beijing. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised and brought her daughter all the way. Is it¡ª¡ª


    Sure enough, I heard her say, "before my concubine married Yizhou from Kyoto, she was a best friend with queen Xian Huiyuan. When we were young, we made an appointment to have children and become in laws in the future. It was only a few years before I married to Yizhou that I had nothing to do. After looking for a doctor and asking for medicine, I had children Hanwen and little girl Hanzhu. My concubine was in contact with queen Hongyan of xianhuiyuan. She once mentioned that she would betroth her little daughter Hanzhu to the third prince Hua. Little girl Hanzhu is 13 years old. The following year, it was time for hairpin. My concubine was in a hurry to bring her to Kyoto. "


    Zhuo Xi was full of doubts when she listened to this ambiguous remark. Since she had made an agreement with queen Xian Huiyuan, why did queen Xian Huiyuan not betroth her to her two biological sons, but to Prince Hua, who was born to another wife of the crown prince at that time? Although it is common sense that queen Xian Huiyuan, as her legitimate mother, should determine the parents for the common sons of her family. But since she is a good sister in her boudoir, how can she cross her two biological sons and answer the marriage for the third son first? She calculated that one of the two biological sons of Queen Xian Huiyuan was four years old and the other was seven years old. How could she first betroth her three-year-old son Hua? It has been almost five years since queen Hui Yuan passed away. Since she got married, why did she mention it now? Jing Hua is seventeen this year. It is reasonable to say that Jing Hua had twelve when Queen Xian Huiyuan died, and it was time to get engaged. Even if queen Xian Huiyuan didn''t mention it, didn''t Jing Hua''s biological mother mention it? Or don''t you want to mention it? Also, does Jing Hua know about this marriage?


    Thinking of these, she said with a smile, "since this matter was decided by Queen Huiyuan first, it''s not easy for the palace to intervene. According to this palace, it''s better to leave the matter to the Empress Dowager. "


    She claimed to have an old friend with the empress dowager, but came thousands of miles to visit her instead of visiting the Empress Dowager first. It can be seen that her so-called old friend may not even remember the Empress Dowager herself. Therefore, paying a birthday to the Empress Dowager is definitely just an excuse. The most important thing for her is her daughter''s marriage to Jing Hua. But why doesn''t Jing Yuan know? A few days ago, I asked the Empress Dowager to be a matchmaker to find school-age women


    Sure enough, as soon as he heard that he was handed over to the empress dowager, Zhang got a little anxious, hurriedly took a small cloth bag from his sleeve, opened it and presented it, "madam, this is the letter from my concubine and queen Xian Huiyuan, as well as the keepsake she gave."


    Chunnuan handed over the small cloth bag, which was a letter written in kraft paper and an exquisite five blessings and auspicious clouds jade pendant. Although the jade pendant has good quality and exquisite carving, its style is too common. If queen Xian Huiyuan really takes this as a keepsake to marry her three sons, it can only be said that queen Xian Huiyuan either doesn''t value the Liu family or doesn''t value this so-called "best friend in the boudoir".


    Zhuo Xi looked at the seal of "imperial concubine Shujin yuan" covered on the kraft paper. She thought it was the old seal used in the prince''s house at that time, so she whispered, "since you have the keepsake given by Queen Huiyuan first, so..."


    Zhang immediately understood and said, "what my concubine gave back was a silver lock with pearls in the sky. However, I don''t know who kept queen Xian Huiyuan at that time... "


    She wanted to ask whether Jing Hua''s real mother and biological mother had given the silver lock to Jing Hua herself? In any case, if queen Huiyuan made the marriage first, Jing Hua''s biological mother couldn''t have known about it. Unfortunately, his biological mother died soon after the death of Queen Huiyuan. That''s why Sun Yao will gradually grow up in the prince''s house.


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "whether the keepsake is in the hands of Dingyuan Hou, but he never mentioned it. This matter is also a oversight of the palace. Now Dingyuan Hou Daxiao is in the body and in Junyao city. It''s not urgent for a while. According to this palace, if you and Miss Liu San don''t find a place to settle in Kyoto First. How about discussing this matter after the palace has verified it? "


    Jing Hua just won the title of Dingyuan Marquis last month and took care of the common affairs of the original Zisang counties. The military and political systems of the original thirty-six Zisang prefectures and counties have been successfully adapted according to the management system of the state of Wuliang and incorporated into the unified management of the cabinet of Wuliang. There are also 21 counties. He is slowly mapping them.


    Zhang''s face showed a relaxed color and asked carefully, "the Empress Dowager''s 50th birthday next month, will you come back?"


    "The Empress Dowager''s mother''s birthday, Hou Ye''s pure filial piety, will naturally come back."


    Zhang smiled. "I think I''ve never met my two children before. If the Marquis returns to Kyoto, it doesn''t hurt to let the two children meet. "


    As soon as he said this, Zhuo Xi changed his face. General marriage events, parents'' orders, coal Shuo''s words. Before the two families discuss marriage, if they let both men and women meet, it is called looking at each other. In this way, she took out both letters and keepsakes. If there were no accidents, the two sides would be firmly in laws. It would be inappropriate to meet again. What does she mean by that? Extremely confident in your daughter?


    Seeing that her face was not worried, Zhang quickly explained, "I thought it was sudden for the marquis. If they can meet each other and have a look in their hearts, it''s better to cultivate feelings when they get married in the future, isn''t it? "


    Zhuo Xi felt more and more strange in her heart. Listening to Zhang''s tone, she seemed to know that Jing Hua didn''t know about the marriage? That''s why I think "suddenly"?


    Zhuo Xi had a headache, so he sent Zhang off with "let''s discuss it later" and rewarded some hairpin snacks.


    She asked chunnuan to go to the inner house to verify the gold seal used by Queen Xian Huiyuan. However, she didn''t hope. The other party was so precise and prepared that it was impossible to take out a fake keepsake.


    When Jing Yuan came to have lunch with her at noon, she told him about it.


    Jing Yuan looked strange, "you mean the Wu Yuanbo Liu family in Yizhou?"


    "Yes, you know?"


    "Of course I know." There was a trace of disdain on his face. "When the five countries broke up, the Yu royal family asked the Liu family for help. At that time, the Liu family had nearly 200000 troops on the four roads in the West. Although he could not compete with more than 1 million troops in the five countries, his grandfather sent someone to instigate the Liu family to participate in the incident, but he was rejected by the Liu family. Therefore, my grandfather also assigned some troops to guard against the Liu family in the West. Who knows, the Liu family didn''t help anyone, but missed the opportunity to participate in the division of the world. Later, my grandfather died when he broke the king''s city. His father, who was only 22 years old at that time, inherited the throne of Wuliang, took the right of Liu''s soldiers and granted him the title of Wu Yuanbo. The Liu family lost their military power in vain and missed the opportunity. In the end, they were only spared. This matter has been ridiculed by the new kings of the five countries for a long time and is well known all over the world... Over the past 30 years, the Liu family has rarely set foot in Kyoto to make friends with old friends. I''m afraid they feel ashamed. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. "Er... Is there such a thing? Therefore, Queen Xian Huiyuan was already the crown princess at that time. She was afraid that her son would be dragged down by the reputation of her daughter-in-law''s family, but it was not easy to eat her promise, so she decided to marry Hua''er? And Hua''er''s biological mother felt ashamed, so she didn''t say anything, so no one knew about it? "


    Jing Yuan nodded, "it should be so."


    "Then why hasn''t the Liu family mentioned it for so many years?" The whole Liu family has a weak potential. There is a royal marriage, which should be settled early.


    Jing Yuan thought, "honey of a, arsenic of B. Some people admire and cling to the heavenly family of the royal family, while others are afraid to get involved. They can rise to heaven overnight or fall to the ground overnight. Birch had no bad name before, but she had no good name. I think the Liu family also wants to see Hua''er''s last fortune? "


    Judging from the foolish solitude of the Liu family, it is very likely to act like this¡° Why don''t you tell your mother tomorrow and let her make a decision later. " Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "although the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, after all, Hua''er is the direct grandson of her mother. This marriage was first decided by Queen Huiyuan and later decided by her mother. It''s more appropriate. "


    She remembered Zhang''s embarrassed face when she mentioned the empress dowager, and suddenly understood what Zhang was worried about. She is worried that the reputation of the Liu family, which has been ridiculed for more than 30 years, will be remembered and ridiculed again... It can be seen how determined she has made for her daughter''s future


    They talked about the Ji family case for a while. Zhuo Xi was relieved when she learned that the Tingwei mansion had said hello.


    At dinner, they went to the Empress Dowager hand in hand.


    Zhuo Xi told the Empress Dowager about it while holding her shoulder. The Empress Dowager really frowned, "Yizhou Liu family? What family is that?! The first queen Hui Yuan is really too rash! "


    Jing Yuan didn''t think so. "Although the Liu family has a bad reputation, it was an old thing 30 years ago. Besides, the Liu family is still a hereditary uncle. In terms of identity, Jing Hua, the legitimate daughter of the uncle''s family, wouldn''t deserve it if she hadn''t sealed a marquis this time! "


    The Empress Dowager spat, "nonsense! My royal grandson, which daughter is not worthy to marry? Moreover, in the eyes of AI family, Hua''er is a very good child. I''m seventeen years old, and I don''t have a concubine. Although it was true that he had ignored him before, he was also a good man. He not only didn''t fool around, but also made great contributions to the neutrality of the southern expedition. Now you have to teach yourself by your uncle. It''s impossible to be successful! "


    Jing Yuan also went up to learn from Zhuo Xi, pinched her other arm and said with a smile, "empress mother, if you want to praise me, just be direct. I''m thick skinned and won''t be embarrassed. Sometimes when I''m confused and don''t hear it, I''ll lose money. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled happily, "you mouth!" She looked at Zhuo Xi''s stomach and smiled, "if this baby is a boy, it must be as naughty as you!"


    Jing Yuan quit, "empress mother, where was the son naughty when he was a child? It''s just a little active and a little fun. "


    The people laughed and talked, and mother Su came in and said that dinner was ready. The three moved to the west room and had dinner. After talking with the Empress Dowager for a while, they went back to Ning''an palace hand in hand.

 Chapter 203

    The next day, Zhuo Xi thought of it and ordered chunnuan to arrange a time to call Mrs. Wu Yuanbo and her daughter into the palace to greet the Empress Dowager.


    The person sent replied that Mrs. Wu Yuanbo returned to her mother''s house and promised to come the next afternoon.


    In the afternoon of the next day, Zhuo Xi went to Ci''an palace. Sure enough, she saw Zhang and the little girl of twelve or thirteen.


    Two people greet her.


    She said goodbye.


    When chunnuan served tea, he deliberately sprained his foot in front of the little girl, and the tea cup broke all over the ground.


    The little girl''s face was calm, but when she saw that chunnuanwei couldn''t get up on the ground, she got up with a worried face and ran to her and asked repeatedly, "how are you, sister?" Help her up again.


    Chunnuan waved his hand and said "no problem, thank you, Miss Liu San" and so on.


    Zhang stopped talking.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly carried chunnuan out.


    Zhuo Xi was secretly satisfied and asked Miss Liu San to come closer to answer. She really had exquisite facial features and proper behavior.


    The Empress Dowager didn''t know that Zhang''s mother and daughter were coming. When she saw them, she went to the door to see them. She was not worried, but when she saw Zhuo Xi''s arrangement, she knew that she was testing the girl''s character. Seeing that she was so generous, she also put down her prejudices a little, and just asked Zhang¡° Mrs. Bo, you''ve been away from home for nearly twenty years? "


    "If you go back to the empress dowager, I have been married to Yizhou for 19 years. When my concubine got married, it was the period of filial piety. I have never returned to Kyoto in the past 19 years. When she returned to her mother''s house the day before yesterday, most of her nephews, brothers and sisters didn''t know each other... "She wiped her tears." it''s really a thing and a person. When I returned to Beijing this time, I would have no regrets if I could settle Hanzhu''s marriage. " Her mother''s family is also an aristocratic family. In those years, her parents died of illness one after another. My brother was afraid that she had been filial for too long and missed the wedding date, so he hurried to get married with uncle Takehara, who had been unable to get engaged for a long time because of her poor reputation. Rexiaonei hurriedly married her. If not, how could she have been trapped in Yizhou for more than ten years and Shengsheng could not return to Beijing to reunite with her family? His daughter can no longer ruin her marriage because of the reputation of the Liu family.


    The Empress Dowager also sighed, "this woman hasn''t had a few nineteen years in her life. It''s better to live with Meimei... "Half said, and found that he seemed to fall into Zhang''s trap. Both harmony and beauty, not only good children and women, but also good children and good sons in law... Although a daughter is married, how can a mother not worry about her daughter''s life? She couldn''t help feeling a little angry.


    Sure enough, Zhang wiped his tears and whispered, "thanks to the love of Queen Huiyuan, she promised her little daughter to the Duke of Dingyuan. A few years ago, I thought it was the filial piety period of Queen Xian Huiyuan. Because the little girl was still young, I didn''t hurry to make a decision on the marriage. Now the little girl is about to reach the hairpin. It seems that the Marquis of Dingyuan is not young. I was surprised that I made a big mistake and nearly missed two children! My concubine committed a crime against the Empress Dowager and the queen... "


    Zhang Shi can really say that he directly takes everything to himself, which makes people unable to pick out if they want to pick a thorn


    Zhuo Xi discussed with the empress dowager, "empress mother, Mrs. Bo said that she gave a silver lock back to Hua''er. Do you know this?"


    The Empress Dowager looked puzzled. "In those years, Queen xianhuiyuan quietly responded to the marriage in the prince''s house. For so many years, I knew nothing about the family. How could I notice any silver lock?"


    She especially bit the word "quietly", just like slapping Zhang in the face. Although Liu Hanzhu was young, she also felt great humiliation, and her eyes were teetering with tears. She bit her lower lip and knew how much pressure her mother had borne to return to the capital city. No matter whether the marriage was successful or not, she couldn''t let her mother lose face again. She clenched her hand


    Zhuo Xi was secretly surprised at the Empress Dowager''s lack of face, so she had to smile and save the scene, "after all, Queen Huiyuan has died for a long time, and this matter is still urgent. Empress mother, it''s better to call Hua''er back and ask him. Maybe he knows the whereabouts of the silver lock! " She mentioned queen Xian Huiyuan to remind the Empress Dowager that after all, it was the marriage set by Jing Hua''s immediate mother. Even if the Empress Dowager no longer likes the marriage, she can''t deny it. At the same time, it also comforted Zhang.


    The Empress Dowager couldn''t help but give Zhuo Xi face and had to nod her greedy head.


    I just wanted to take the opportunity to see Liu Hanzhu. I didn''t expect the Empress Dowager to resist the marriage so much. I didn''t think about it. It''s really inappropriate to talk about your marriage in front of a girl. Zhuo Xi asked Liu Hanzhu and changed the topic, "have you ever read any books?"


    "It''s just some women''s instructions and women''s rules. I can only recognize a few words." Liu Hanzhu swallowed her tears into her stomach and replied softly.


    "What do you like to do everyday?"


    Liu Hanzhu''s eyes brightened and her voice became louder, "people''s women like making incense. On weekdays, I often go out for an outing, pick some grass and fragrant flowers, make incense and give it to my family... "


    If you have something you like to do, your mind will be simpler. I often go out for an outing. I think my body is also good. If you make incense and know how to share it with your family, your character must be lively. Zhuo Xi was afraid that the girl would easily get into niujiaojian''s house because of her family reputation, and her character would become sharp and stingy. In this way, she felt relieved... So she nodded, "is this your first time to Kyoto? I can stay at ease for a while. There are some shops that women often patronize in Kyoto. If you are bored, you can go around and see what is different from Yizhou. "


    Zhang Shi hurriedly said, "isn''t it? Yesterday, I was recommended by my sister-in-law to go to Feiyu Zui Yuxuan... "She began to talk again


    ¡­¡­


    An hour later, after Zhang''s mother and daughter left the palace, Zhuo Xi quickly brought a cup of tea to appease the empress dowager, "empress mother, although this marriage came unexpectedly, according to the results of the internal government''s verification today, it was indeed the handwritten letter written by Queen Xian Huiyuan of that year. Although the Liu family''s voice is a little bad. But it''s a good idea to marry a wife and a virtuous person. Today, I look at Miss Liu. Not only is she generous and not tired of that reputation, but also she loves her mother. She is a filial child. " As she spoke her observations to the empress dowager, she finally comforted her and said, "Hua''er has traveled abroad for many years. She is an uncertain child. If you can have a wife who knows how to be patient and good at business at home, he can slowly find a sense of security and a sense of belonging... "


    The Empress Dowager was slightly surprised and said, "Hua''er is traveling abroad. AI family always thought that he was young and playful, and had a close relationship with yuan''er since childhood, so she wanted to learn from his sixth uncle to play around..."


    Zhuo Xi said patiently, "birch was only thirteen or four years old when she traveled? Where in the world can there really be thirteen or fourteen year old children who don''t want to be spoiled by their parents? If I should say something wrong, Hua''er must have been a concubine since she was a child. She seldom received the love of her father and mother. Only then did she develop a conceited and playful character early. A few months ago, he returned to Huayang palace to recuperate due to illness. The concubine found that he was only used to a person on the outside, but he was really eager for family affection in the heart. So he insisted on going to Mingxiao mountain. Because this kind of family gathering is too rare for him. The former Prince''s palace could not give him a sense of security, and now Huayang palace could not give him a sense of belonging. This Liu San girl has been in a difficult situation since childhood, but she is strong and optimistic. You can keep your duty and find yourself more. He must be an open-minded person who has a skill but can share it with his family. Hua''er is also a marquis now. It is such a strong, patient, independent and thoughtful person who needs to stick to his house for him. He is bound to be happier than before. What you hope is that all your children and grandchildren will be happy? "


    The Empress Dowager''s eyes were moist. "Ai family is actually bent on finding a good girl for him. But he was very filial. AI family was just trying to look at him slowly. Who knows, a Miss Liu San came out. It''s also the reputation of the Liu family in Yizhou. I''m afraid that a girl from such a family will have a crooked character. "


    "So today, I summoned their mother and daughter to say these words to see what kind of heart Miss Liu is. My mother has read countless people. I can see it. My mother must have known it for a long time! "


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "it seems that you have a crush on this niece and daughter-in-law!"


    "What my mother said is wrong. This niece and daughter-in-law is not what I like. It''s Hua''er''s mother who likes her for him! "


    The Empress Dowager clapped her hands and said plainly, "in the final analysis, you just want to know the reputation of Queen Xian Huiyuan. Whatever! Mother Su - "she called out," put away the roster of Kyoto expensive women who have been selected for a long time a few days ago! "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized that no wonder the Empress Dowager resisted the marriage so much. She didn''t want to waste her efforts. She quickly said with a smile, "the queen mother was looking at each other for birch! Don''t waste your efforts. I''m the eldest brother of my mother''s family. Now I''m also a commander of five grade gold Imperial Guard. I may attack the Lord in the future! Although the daughter of Bo Hou Gongqing''s family didn''t dare to think about it. But I don''t know if there is a suitable woman in the general five grade officials or scholar family? "


    The Empress Dowager became interested and quickly told mother Su, "find out the roster of those noble families that were eliminated a few days ago, and the mourning family will pick again..."


    Sure enough, Peng bixuan, the legitimate second daughter of Peng Ze''s family, was soon selected as a third grade Taishi who was watching politics in the cabinet. It was just because there had been no suitable candidate and had not decided on a marriage, so she was a little older. She was 16 this year, and it was just right to be matched with Wu Xing in 19.


    The Empress Dowager immediately sent someone to instruct Mrs. Peng and Peng bixuan to enter the palace the next day.


    Zhuo Xi helplessly helped her forehead, secretly confessed in her heart, so easily made a marriage for her eldest brother, and then left and went back to Ning''an palace.

 Chapter 204

    Sure enough, the next day, Zhuo Xi went to CI Ning palace to see Mrs. Peng''s mother and daughter.


    However, seeing that Peng bixuan was born like a flower and behaved politely and decently, it''s no wonder that Mrs. Peng held her in the palm of her hand and was not willing to kiss her casually.


    Mrs. Peng''s mother and daughter were a little uneasy about the Empress Dowager''s sudden call. After Zhuo Xi took Peng bixuan for a walk in the back garden, the Empress Dowager pointed out this meaning. Mrs. Peng was overjoyed and agreed almost immediately. Wu Xing is the eldest son of Pingyang uncle''s family, and there is no legitimate son in Pingyang uncle''s family. I''m afraid he will attack the Lord in the future. He was already a five life official when he was young, and he was also the Queen''s brother. Because of her age, her daughter didn''t dare to think about it at all. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager wanted to marry them, which is a supreme honor.


    In a few days, the Empress Dowager couldn''t wait to give her a wedding decree. The Wu family and the Peng family members went to the palace to thank her, so that she could have a good life as a matchmaker.


    The Wu family and the whole family were celebrating. They didn''t mention it. They only heard that Liu was dissatisfied with Peng bixuan''s age.


    Zhuo Xi only laughed at it. She agrees that women get married and conceive later, which will greatly improve the safety factor for both the mother and the fetus. Besides, it''s only sixteen. In her opinion, it''s still too small.


    But Wu Xing is busy with the military academy these days. I wonder if he is dissatisfied with his rash intervention in his marriage?


    The next day, Liu went into the palace alone to discuss the application date with her and wanted to set the wedding date on December 20.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. "It''s only less than two months to prepare. I''m afraid it''s too late?" Is it because big brother doesn''t like this marriage? So abandon yourself and seek early death and rebirth?


    "I''m in a hurry. However, fortunately, the Wu family''s houses were newly built the year before last, so there is no need to make a big move. Wedding gifts can also be prepared in full. But... "Liu''s face showed no hesitation," I thought that after the new year, the Peng girl was seventeen... "


    It''s not nice to marry at such an old age. This reason can also be understood. But Zhuo Xi asked anxiously, "brother, are you happy?"


    "No, no, no, OK, I''d like to get married earlier. I''m afraid I won''t be in Kyoto next year. Get married earlier, or settle down earlier... When he leaves Kyoto, he can rest assured. "


    Zhuo Xi was silent, but she was surprised that Wu Xing was leaving Kyoto? Where to? She asked again, "for such an urgent invitation period, you have to ask your in laws if you have time to prepare."


    Liu frowned, "I''ve asked over there. It''s said that the Peng family began to prepare the dowry of the second girl three years ago. It''s too late... "


    Listen to this, the Peng family also hopes to get married years ago. Zhuo Xi let down her heart and said, "I''m afraid my mother will take more trouble in such a hurry. At present, the eldest brother is already a five life capital official. His father is your uncle and has just been promoted too often. Although time is pressing, we can''t lack the etiquette we should have. It''s a joke for nothing. " She was afraid that her real mother would be confused again, so she hurried to remind her a little.


    Liu was also sober, straightened his chest and said, "naturally, we can''t be rash. There will be jiao''er''s marriage next year, so we can''t let others tell us. Uncle, there are many colleagues who want to get in touch. Anyway, it''s also our uncle''s eldest son. I must do it well. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded with a smile and served tea to the guests.


    Unexpectedly, half a month later, Jing Hua rushed back from Junyao city.


    As soon as he stepped into Ning''an palace and asked the queen for her peace, his first sentence was, "aunt, please help me. Don''t let me be confused and marry a useless woman home!"


    Zhuo Xi was confused. "What is a useless woman? Is that how you are in Junyao city? You are a marquis now. You can''t talk so recklessly! "


    Jing Hua dragged her sleeve, shook it, and even threw Jiao, "aunt, do you know what I envy the sixth uncle most?"


    Zhuo Xi tried to pull out her sleeve and shook her head to show that she didn''t know.


    "I envy Uncle Wang most. He can decide his own marriage and marry someone he likes!"


    Zhuo Xi is ashamed and can''t take his own example as a model. It''s humiliating and shameless... Well, humiliating and shameless are actually the same thing. She couldn''t answer this, so she had to take queen Xian Huiyuan and say, "marriage is a big event, the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker. That''s the marriage your mother set for you early. How can you withdraw at will without a legitimate reason? You can''t make mistakes! "


    "But no one knows about this marriage! Not only me, but also my grandmother! It can be seen that even the mother herself is not happy! " Jing Hua has a little temper.


    Zhuo Xi could only persuade, "whether she is willing or not, in short, she has decided this door for you. According to my aunt, the Liu girl is still good. Why don''t you look at it first? " Then she wanted to bite her tongue. He fooled around. How could she be confused? So resist the marriage, but run to see each other and promise again? What has she become? And don''t let the bride be a man? She quickly changed her mouth, "no, you''d better not see me. Go back to Huayang Palace first and find all the people you were a child, such as nursing mothers, eunuchs and palace maids. Ask who knows the whereabouts of the silver lock. All right? "


    "Aunt - I never saw that silver lock when I was a child!" He glanced at her.


    Zhuo Xi had a headache. She looked at the missing moment. It was time for the regular logistics meeting. She hurriedly said, "it''s only half a month away from her mother''s birthday. My palace is busy here! You''re dusty. Hurry back and have a rest. Besides, your Junyao city also has many common affairs to report to the king? Go back and get ready. It''s all small things. Don''t take it to heart... "


    Jing Hua broke down. "Aunt, marriage is a big thing. How can it be said to be a small thing?"


    "Yes, you know it''s a big marriage. Your parents have orders and matchmakers have words. What can you do? Without a legitimate reason, the Pro is established and can''t retreat. My aunt knew well... Go back and find the silver lock... "Half coax and half push to let him leave Ning''an palace.


    Zhuo Xi breathed a sigh of relief and frowned again. It''s a tricky matter. The party doesn''t agree and the Empress Dowager is not happy. If the bride marries in the future, I don''t know how difficult it is


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Jing Hua is sitting in the elegant room on the second floor of a restaurant on the most prosperous East Street in Kyoto. He has been back for a few days and made an appointment to have a small gathering here.


    It was the window seat. Before the people he was waiting for arrived, he leaned against the window and looked out. He is a martial artist with excellent ears and eyesight.


    On the street, a young woman with a curtain hat, afraid of being only twelve or thirteen years old, was walking quickly with her maid, but suddenly stopped by a young man in Chinese clothes who was selecting kites in front of a kite selling stall on the street. I only heard the woman say to young master Huafu, "dare you ask if you have a wallet embroidered with thrushes?"


    The young man suddenly changed his color and shouted, "you are so bold that you dare to ask the man about his purse in the street?"


    If an ordinary woman is accused so loudly, she must hide her face and be ashamed.


    But the woman was not angry, but more determined: "young master, the little woman just asked for a wallet, but you said a purse. This shows that you do have a wallet embroidered with thrushes? "


    The childe''s face was blue and white.


    She only continued: "childe, the little woman has no other intention, but there is a dark box on the wallet, which contains the spices made by the little woman. It is usually used by my mother to calm the nerves and help sleep. Today, my mother accidentally lost it at the intersection ahead. If you find it, I hope you can give it back to me. The little woman is very grateful. "


    The childe was silent for a long time, so he had to show an embarrassing smile and said, "I just found a wallet at the intersection, but I don''t know whether there is a thrush embroidered on it. If you know this thing, I will return to Zhao completely. " He took out a wallet from his sleeve.


    Jing Hua gave a dark praise. Nowadays, there is little difference between wallet and purse, but when it comes to wallet or purse in other men''s hands, the difference is big. The girl''s purse was obviously the son''s, but she didn''t say that she lost her purse. She only said that it was the wallet used by my mother, and it was accidentally lost. It not only preserved the reputation, but also the son''s face, so that he would willingly return it. At the same time, she pointed out the self-made spices hidden in the wallet, which not only explained the reason why she recognized the purse on the childe, but also let the childe know that there was nothing to hide, and finally reluctantly handed over the purse.


    Listening to her accent, she doesn''t seem to be from Kyoto, but she is also a smart man.


    Sure enough, the woman took the wallet handed over by the maid, nodded, blessed the childe, and politely said, "it''s the wallet my mother lost. Thank you very much, childe. My mother will be very happy to see her wallet recovered. "


    He watched the woman and her maid enter an antique calligraphy and painting shop not far away.


    Then I saw the man waiting for me get off a carriage.


    Soon, there was a knock at the door outside Yajian. The boy went to open the door and welcomed a young man in brocade clothes.


    "See Hou Dingyuan -" the young master Jinfu made a solemn salute.


    Jing Hua put up her shelf and said calmly, "no gift --"


    The young master of brocade clothes straightened up. They looked at each other and laughed.


    Jing Hua even went up and hugged his shoulder, looked up and down, and then showed a satisfied look. "Calf, it''s really different after marrying his daughter-in-law. It''s much more polite!"


    "Bah bah!" Young master Jinfu pointed to his nose and said with disgust, "what calf is not a calf? My handwriting is pengxuan! Does Peng Xuan understand? Pengniapeng, huoxuanxuan! "


    "Oh, your daughter-in-law gave you such a cultured name!"


    "That is! I told you 800 years ago that my daughter-in-law took me an excellent watch! "


    "Tut tut Tut, look at you! You were fifteen years old when you were engaged 800 years ago. Now I think you are only twelve! Why did you go back more and more? Look, this face is covered with honey? Laugh like a flower! Be careful, bees attract butterflies! "

 Chapter 205

    "Hey, hey, hey, what''s in it? You''ll know when you become a pro! By the way, you said you were engaged more than ten years ago? What''s going on? "


    When Jing Hua said the whole thing, Peng Xuan jumped up, "is that the Liu family who has been ridiculed in the Northwest for 30 years?"


    Jing Hua frowned and nodded, "what should I do if I have such a wife family?"


    Peng Xuan first looked sympathetic, then held his belly and laughed, "let you laugh at me, let you laugh at me, ha ha... This is retribution... Ha ha..."


    A boy came in to serve tea and then withdrew.


    Jing Hua held her cheek and looked at him speechless. "Just laugh. It''s rare to make you happy."


    He finally stopped laughing. "Then again, that''s not possible! If you really become a kiss, won''t you be the laughing stock of your life? Find a way to return the kiss! "


    Jing Hua''s face was even more bitter. "No, I begged my aunt, but she didn''t agree... Can''t my mother get up from the ground and withdraw from her marriage? Besides, there is no legitimate reason... "Quitting the marriage will disgrace the deceased queen Huiyuan. It is absolutely impossible without a legitimate reason.


    Peng Xuan sympathized more and more. "The queen can''t go this way, or find a way to let the woman withdraw herself?"


    "You pig head, if you were from the Liu family, would you be willing to withdraw?"


    Peng Xuan touched his head. "I haven''t heard from him for more than ten years. Suddenly a baby kiss came out! In my opinion, the Liu family has a crush on you. Now you are in a high position and prosperous! You can get married in such a family! Moreover, the Liu girl, who has been in such an environment since childhood, has two concubines. She is afraid to develop a cowardly character. How can such a person be the head mother of your Dingyuan Marquis house? "


    Jing Hua wailed, "now I deeply regret why I didn''t meet a favorite when I was traveling abroad..."


    Peng Xuan took a drink from the teacup in front of him and blinked, "you said, if you think of a way to let her withdraw..."


    Jing Hua shook her head, "don''t come up with any bad ideas. Although I''m not happy, I really don''t want to force a weak woman by any dirty means. If she loses her reputation and can''t get married, won''t it ruin her life? "


    "What a bad idea! I mean, it''s better for you two to have a good talk. You tell her your situation in Dingyuan Hou''s house in Junyao city. Maybe she''ll be scared to quit! Or, you tell her that you have a sweetheart and will not be happy with you... And so on. Such an excuse will not make her lose her reputation and can''t get married? "


    "I handed a note yesterday to ask Miss Liu out to meet me. Unexpectedly, she refused!" Jing Hua angrily picked up the cup and drank it up. One side shouted out, "waiter, bring the wine!"


    Peng Xuan jumped up, "what?! It''s only a quarter past now. What wine to drink! " He immediately laughed again, "such a daughter of Uncle without grade, unexpectedly refused you? Ha ha...... "he laughed again.


    Then a voice accompanied by a knock on the door, "Shizi, Shizi''s wife suddenly fainted in the Han Gan calligraphy and painting shop!"


    Peng Xuan''s face suddenly changed, "what?!" He jumped up, opened the door, turned back and said to Jing Hua, "san''er, I''ll go first! I''ll drink with you next time! "


    Jing Hua also got nervous and followed, "let me go to see my sister-in-law with you! Many people are easy to handle! "


    Peng Xuan nodded and, without saying a word, stepped downstairs.


    Led by the boy, they went to the antique calligraphy and painting shop.


    In an elegant room in the shop, a young woman was sitting in a master''s chair, her upper body leaning against the maid next to her. She was obviously unconscious. The maid beside her anxiously held her and waited. Next to him was a man dressed like a maid.


    Soon a man pushed the door in, anxiously called the woman''s name and asked her what was the matter.


    Another doctor came in, took his pulse, said something like pay attention to rest, pinched the woman and woke up.


    The woman drank two mouthfuls of water and rested for a while before she got up with the help of the man and the maid.


    Jing Hua had been waiting outside. Seeing the three coming, she quickly arched her hands. "Is your sister-in-law better?"


    The shopkeeper of the calligraphy and painting shop is also waiting outside.


    The woman looked at the pengxuan nearby.


    Pengxuan hurriedly introduced, "madam, this is my little hair. I used to mention to you that Marquis Dingyuan, whose nickname is san''er."


    The woman will bow down. Jing Hua quickly turned aside and said, "don''t be polite, madam son. Keep your body tight. Peng Xuan and I haven''t seen each other for many years. We just met today and heard that my sister-in-law fell ill. How is your sister-in-law? What did the doctor say? "


    The shopkeeper also knelt down. Today, I heard that Mrs. yuan an boshizi came to the shop to buy things. She hurried to say hello in person. Who knew she would suddenly faint. Now when I see Duke Dingyuan again, I want to salute and pay homage, but I see that people don''t pay attention to him at all.


    Peng Xuan held his wife as she walked and said, "the doctor said that the lady is just tired. I''m afraid she has some fetal movement. She needs to pay attention to rest."


    Jing Hua walked in front and suddenly found that the guide was missing. Looking back, the shopkeeper knelt down behind and hurriedly said, "shopkeeper, please get up and take us out."


    The shopkeeper answered and ran to lead the way.


    Two people came to the front, one wearing a curtain hat and the other dressed as a maid.


    Jing Hua didn''t notice. She just looked at her nose and heart. Don''t say to herself in front, "you''re really careless. Since your sister-in-law has a body, she should have a good rest in the house. Why did you toss her out? " I don''t feel at ease after drinking.


    Peng Xuan smiled, but his wife smiled, "don''t blame me, marquis. It''s my body that feels tired and heavy. I want to come out and breathe. I don''t want to spoil your interest. "


    The two women passed them face to face, but suddenly stopped and looked back at them.


    The three of them walked farther and farther. They thought that the woman''s heart felt something. They couldn''t help looking back, but they saw that the masked woman was turning around and staring at herself. They couldn''t help being embarrassed, so they had to nod.


    The masked little woman came over quickly and asked in a low voice, "sister, are you pregnant?"


    The maid shouted, "you are so rude!"


    The masked woman got closer, walked around the three people, and finally looked at Peng Xuan.


    Peng Xuan was at a loss. He hurriedly looked at his wife and Jing Hua, "I, I don''t know her!"


    Jing Hua had walked in front of them and opened a distance with them. Seeing that the woman was the woman who had just been dealing with the Chinese clothes thief downstairs, she felt a little good. She said in a warm voice, "this girl, but have something to say?"


    The woman hesitated. "There are some words, but it''s inconvenient here."


    The Shizi''s wife took a look at pengxuan and said faintly, "but what do you want to say to listen to me alone?"


    The woman nodded.


    The maid looked at the son more and more angry. But Peng Xuan still looked inexplicable.


    Mrs. Shizi held the maid''s hand, let go of Peng Xuan, took two steps back and said to the woman, "speak softly."


    The woman only lifted the veil and hat, attached it to the lady''s ear and said a word gently.


    Lady Shizi''s face suddenly changed and stared at Peng Xuan.


    Jing Hua was a martial artist. Naturally, she heard it clearly. She suddenly changed her face and stared at Peng Xuan fiercely.


    Peng Xuan was so scared that his legs were soft that he looked at the masked woman for help. "Well, this girl, we had no grievances in the past and no resentments recently. You can''t hurt me!"


    The masked woman didn''t speak. She nodded to the Shizi''s wife and was about to leave.


    The wife of the son of God shouted, "Miss, please stop. Can you give me a hand?"


    The masked woman thought a little and nodded.


    The son''s wife Wen Sheng said to Peng Xuan, "husband, can you go back to the banquet room just now?"


    "This..." Peng Xuan looked at Jing Hua in embarrassment and deeply regretted that he had delayed his time.


    Jing Hua didn''t care. She quickly said to the shopkeeper, "shopkeeper, can I borrow the banquet room just now?"


    The shopkeeper smiled, "of course. Ladies and gentlemen, please -- "


    When they returned to the banquet room, Peng Xuan looked uneasy.


    When she got indoors, the masked woman took down her hat and showed her beautiful face. She whispered to Peng Xuan, "young master, please take off all the sachets."


    Peng Xuan blushed and looked awkwardly at the people in front of him. He suddenly found that his wife was far away.


    The lady of the son explained from a distance, "husband, the girl said, I smell that the sachet on your body seems abnormal. Please take down the sachet and ask the girl to have a look. "


    Peng Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly untied the sachets on his side.


    The woman picked up the sachet and smelled it, but shook her head and looked at pengxuan, "childe, do you still have other sachets hidden on you?"


    Peng Xuan waved his hand, "no, No."


    The woman said, "the little woman just smelled a smell of musk from the childe. This fragrance is extremely harmful to pregnant women. A small amount can make pregnant women miscarry. Childe, if you have other sachets on you, please don''t hide them. "


    Peng Xuan''s face changed greatly. He felt it up and down again and said, "it''s really gone."


    Jing Hua stood behind him, smelled at him, and suddenly asked, "your clothes are fragrant?"


    Peng Xuan woke up and quickly took off his coat, "exactly. I always have my clothes smoked, but there''s something wrong with the smell? "


    He put his clothes on his hands.


    The woman didn''t answer. She just motioned him to put his clothes on the table, then smelled near the top of the clothes and frowned. "It''s the incense on the clothes that contains some slight musk."


    Peng Xuan and his wife changed color. Mrs. Shizi hurriedly asked the maid to throw out her clothes, and went outside to order someone to go back to the house to get clean clothes.

 Chapter 206

    Peng Xuan saluted the woman and said, "thank you for warning me today. Otherwise, I''m afraid it will lead to great disaster."


    Mrs. Shizi also hurried up to give a gift of thanks, "where is the girl''s house? I''d like to send you some thank you... "She just thought about it and broke out in a cold sweat. She said how she would faint from abdominal pain


    The woman quickly returned the salute, said "you''re welcome, meeting is fate", and left.


    Jing Hua saw Peng Xuan in Chinese clothes and said, "I have spare clothes in my car. If I don''t dislike it, I''ll ask the boy to send it in. It''s better to send my wife back to have a rest earlier. "


    Peng Xuan nodded with a heavy heart.


    "Also, I''m afraid there''s something strange about this. After you return to the house, you''d better check it carefully. Don''t leave hidden dangers."


    Even if they spoke together, they knew that he did not say.


    Jing Hua also said goodbye and left.


    Seeing the woman wearing the curtain hat three times in a day, Jing Hua felt that she was also God.


    When he stepped into the gate of Pingwu hall, he saw the girl surrounded by children in the middle of the yard.


    He looked at his personal entourage Zhou Qing. Zhou Qing had the same expression as him.


    At that moment, an anger rose in his heart and turned around to go out.


    With sharp eyes, the manager of pingkaitang quickly came to salute him. With an anxious face, he introduced him into xicijian and began to report on what had happened in Pingwu hall recently and in the small half year since he left Kyoto.


    He repressed his anger and decided to rush out immediately as soon as he heard about the woman, strangle her neck and ask her who and why. But listen to the manager''s detailed report slowly. Why haven''t you said a word about her for so long?


    Until finally, the manager was thirsty and looked at him expectantly. He suddenly came back to his mind, "finished?"


    The manager nodded again and again.


    Jing Hua still looked blankly, "then, what happened?" No connection with that woman at all? Why is there a sense of disappointment in his heart?


    The sweat on the manager''s forehead dropped. After talking so much, the Marquis didn''t understand a word? He wiped his sweat, licked his dry lips, and began to talk from the beginning.


    Jing Hua then figured out the whole story - Pingwu hall was a good hall he created after returning to Kyoto for leisure two years ago to adopt homeless children. At the beginning, there were not many adopted children, but it was nothing. Settle the adopted children three meals a day, arrange some daily work for them, and then ask a master to teach them boxing and foot skills. If you have the opportunity to join the army in the future, you can also work hard and find a way out. But over time, the adopted children are from birth to 11 or 12 years old, more than half of them are girls, and sometimes some are ill or disabled. This problem comes out. Those who are sick or disabled need special care, older girls and boys can''t live and eat together, and those who practice martial arts can''t or don''t want to practice martial arts. In particular, girls do nothing every day, boys often quarrel and bully girls... And so on. There is only one manager, two boys, two kitchens and three daily cleaning women in Pingwu hall. It''s often made chicken fly and dog jump, and I have a headache.


    Previously, he was far away in Junyao city. The manager wrote several letters to him, but he didn''t read them carefully, let alone have time to reply. When he returned to Kyoto City this time, the manager heard about it and hurriedly asked him to come and have a look at the scene. He had lunch today and wanted to go back to the palace to rest. The king asked him to find a courtyard as Dingyuan Hou''s house. He wandered around outside and turned to the neighborhood. He remembered that Zhou Qing took his card to deal with the emergency here early this morning, so he came to see it temporarily.


    Jing Hua said strangely at last, "but when Ben Hou just arrived in the yard, he didn''t see the scene of fighting and chaos?"


    The manager hurriedly said, "it''s better these days. A woman who calls herself three girls will come every afternoon to tell some stories with older children. Teach some older girls to make stitches. "


    As soon as he heard it, his spirit came again. "How many days has she been here? Since when did you come? " So, she must be waiting for herself here? I''m definitely improvised today


    He felt his hands suddenly and inexplicably excited.


    The manager recalled and carefully replied, "three days ago."


    He sat up straight with an inexplicable glow on his face. "Tell me what happened today."


    Seeing that the master finally entered the state, the manager said, "Pingwu hall does not restrict the children''s access. On weekdays, the masters also teach them not to make trouble. If they have the ability to find a way out, they don''t have to stay in Pingwu hall. At the beginning of this year, two boys aged 11 or 12 often go out to earn money. They don''t have any rules on weekdays. They just have to report to the slave. There was a boy named Yan Lu, who was beautiful and wrote good words. He often went in and out, and there was nothing special. He just said that sometimes he took some calligraphy and paintings to sell. Unexpectedly, when he came back a few days ago, he looked flustered and reported to the hospital guard that someone wanted to take him away. I have been closed for a few days. Unexpectedly, a man who claimed to be the housekeeper of Anyuan Hou''s house came early this morning and said that there were escaped slaves of Anyuan Hou here and wanted to take them back to the house. I sent someone to find Lord Zhou Qing and asked you for advice. "


    Jing Hua heard from Zhou Qing this morning that someone was looking for trouble in Pingwu hall. He was too lazy to listen to what it was, so he threw the matching card to Zhou Qing and asked him to deal with it.


    He asked again, "this Yan Lu, who not only knows literary phrases, but also writes good words, shows that he was at least a rich family when he was a child. How could he be adopted in Pingwu hall?"


    "When the slave went to the farm in the suburbs of Beijing to collect rent the year before last, he passed an abandoned house. Yan Lu was lying on the ground inside the door and was dying of hunger. The slave fed him water, looked at him as if he had some origin, and asked him what was the matter. He said that when there was a disaster at home, he came to Kyoto to go to his relatives. He didn''t want all his relatives to move away. Alone, he found an abandoned house to live in. The slave asked him if he would like to live in Pingwu hall. He just wanted to take care of his brother and sister. He agreed at once. Later, when the slave found out that he could read, he asked him to teach the children a few words. "


    "What''s the matter with Anyuan Hou''s house?" Jing Hua frowned.


    The manager said, "today, a man who claimed to be the housekeeper of Anyuan Marquis House said that there was a young man named Yan Lu, a domestic slave raised in Anyuan Marquis house since childhood. Somehow he escaped the year before last. A few days ago, a servant in the house recognized him in the street and wanted to take him back to Anyuan Hou''s house. " Speaking of this, he looked at Zhou Qing for help.


    Zhou Qing then came forward to answer, "after your subordinates brought your matching card to Pingwu hall this morning, the housekeeper also said the same thing. He also said that if Pingwu hall harbors fugitive slaves, Anyuan Marquis would not mind reporting to Jingdu Tingwei. Let the Tingwei mansion handle the matter. My subordinates had to ask the master''s card and tell him that there were no fugitives here, only abandoned children. When these abandoned children were adopted to Pingwu hall, they all prepared a case in Tingwei''s house. If you want Tingwei''s house to come forward, it would be better. What''s more -- "he glanced at Jing Hua and said," now the Marquis is a good man in Kyoto. If he knew that Luan Tong was raised at the foot of the grand Kyoto, I''m afraid he would have a whim to visit Anyuan Marquis house... "


    Jing Hua laughed, "did you scare the housekeeper away? Sure enough, Zhou Qing is the one who knows me! "


    After laughing, he still felt something wrong. Is it still irrelevant to the woman?


    He found that the anger in his heart disappeared, and vaguely replaced a disappointment


    He thought for a moment and said, "Ben Hou hasn''t taken a good look at this place yet. It''s better to go and see where it needs to be transformed. We''ll decide immediately. Call that Yan Lu again. " He felt as if he were expecting something.


    Housekeeper yuan quickly nodded and bowed to lead the way.


    Several people went out of the west room, but they saw that the woman put on the curtain hat again. They noticed that several people came out, so they blessed yuan Guan''s family from a distance, "housekeeper yuan, I''ll go first."


    Several children surrounded her, jumping and shouting, "sister, don''t go, sister, don''t go..."


    She bent down and said to them, "didn''t we agree? After you have written the words taught by brother Yan, your sister will come again. Next time, let your sister see your big characters, OK? "


    "OK..." several children said in unison, holding her sleeve reluctantly.


    Jing Hua couldn''t see the look under her curtain hat clearly, and the faint disappointment under her heart deepened a little.


    She stood up straight and looked at him. She didn''t come to say hello because she had seen him in the antique calligraphy and painting shop this morning. She just nodded at him and turned away.


    Jing Hua was disappointed, but he was determined that he would see her again in a few days.


    He didn''t know where he came from. Today''s three meetings have made him no longer believe that this is a coincidence, but a premeditated plan. Who''s behind it? What''s the purpose? No matter who has a purpose and doesn''t realize it one day, he will create an opportunity to "meet" himself again. He thought confidently.


    This self-confidence made him lose sight for a moment and didn''t send someone to track the woman''s whereabouts in time, so that after several days of disappointment, he began to regret deeply. And this regret is gradually deepened with daily disappointment.


    He secretly hoped that the woman was arranged by a noble man in the palace in order to make himself refuse to marry the Liu family. So he went to the palace several times, especially the Empress Dowager. He tried many times and found that he found nothing. He was puzzled and even suspected that the queen had deliberately arranged for the woman to appear in front of him.


    He remembered the day when the queen said, "how can you refuse to kiss without a legitimate reason?" He subconsciously thought that maybe his aunt wished she had a good reason to refuse to kiss. So after several days of hard waiting, he suddenly remembered that he had something important to do, so he went into Ning''an palace with a burning emotion.

 Chapter 207

    Now that he knew that the Queen''s time was arranged, he rushed to see her in the interval before lunch.


    Zhuo Xi immediately asked, "have you found the silver lock?"


    He didn''t look for it at all, so he had to shake his head and say, "no, aunt, my nephew didn''t find the silver lock."


    She looked at his look and suddenly realized, "I didn''t say anything. What shape was the silver lock with beads that day? How did you know it was a silver lock?" Generally, the accessories for men like to make a shape of nine sons born of dragon. Tianyu is the full name of the nine sons


    "Aunt, nephew, nephew guessed!" There was a trace of guilt in his eyes.


    "You''re not here to refuse marriage this time, are you? When you see Miss Liu, you suddenly find that she has the appearance of sinking fish and falling geese and the appearance of closing the moon and ashamed of flowers, so you change your mind? " Zhuo Xi asked jokingly with a smile. After thinking for so many days, she always felt something was wrong. Now, seeing his look, I finally realized it.


    Jing Hua''s eyes lit up hope in an instant, "no, no, aunt. In fact, it was my nephew who met a favorite woman and wanted to make friends with her... That''s why he wanted to withdraw... "


    Zhuo Xi said suspiciously, "in just a few days, you have your favorite woman? Didn''t you come out to deceive me in order to refuse to marry? "


    "No, No. How dare my nephew cheat my aunt? My nephew really met a girl a few days ago. Although she didn''t have the appearance of sinking fish and falling geese, she was smart and kind-hearted. My nephew thought... "


    Zhuo Xi sank her face. "Then tell me, what''s the woman''s name and where she lives? Are your parents here? Have you ever been engaged? "


    Jing Hua''s heart became more and more hopeful, "nephew, I don''t know. Please help me... "


    "What?! I don''t even know my name, so I want to quit my family and marry someone else? "


    He smiled, "nephew, I don''t know, but if you want to know, where can you hide it from you?"


    Zhuo Xi stood up and shouted angrily, "it''s ridiculous! As a well-educated child of the royal family, you took a woman who didn''t even know her name as a raft in order to refuse to marry! Where do you want to put the face of the Wang family? Where is the face of Queen Huiyuan before your mother? " She does not object to young people seeking true love. Even if it is love at first sight, she believes it, but she deceives her with an unwarranted shadow. Is she a fool?


    Jing Hua felt a little weak in her heart. Did she make a mistake? Didn''t her aunt arrange to meet her by chance?


    "Aunt -" he looked at the dignified queen, and was speechless. In fact, she seldom spoke to him so harshly. I seldom have such intimate and coquettish time with her like a younger generation. It turned out that he was alienated in respect. Later, since he was ill, he unconsciously took her as an elder and as close as his sixth uncle


    She patted on the handrail. "For no reason, find an unnamed woman as a shield. What wants to refuse marriage and marry a woman you like! I dare say that''s a big e-mail! When did you play in front of your aunt? "


    He flopped and knelt on the ground, "what a great injustice! Empress Queen - nephew is not, nephew dare not! "


    She stared at him and took a deep breath. "Then you say it! What did you do after leaving Junyao city to do business? "


    "No, nothing. I just received your letter. I was so excited that I couldn''t sleep all night..."


    "The result of being too excited to sleep all night is to come back and refuse to marry? Well, this palace will give you one last chance. If you don''t say it, you won''t have a chance to say it. Get up! "


    She also found that when he asked her for private affairs, he was called "aunt". If he was involved in business, it must be "Queen".


    Jing Hua had to touch her head and sat down in a small chair. "What, I heard that commander Wu is calling people to set up a military academy? Little nephew, I also want to take the opportunity to learn and have a long experience... "


    "Is this little thing worth your running back? Refusal to marry is false, study is false, and birthday worship is estimated to be just by the way. When did you become so slippery? Well, if you don''t want to say it, you''d better go back to your Huayang palace and look for the silver lock with beads that day to recognize Miss Liu! "


    "Aunt!" He was frightened and excited, "aunt, my nephew''s lifelong happiness is at this critical moment! You must not deal with it hastily! Nephew, I''m killing four birds with one stone! It is true to refuse marriage, to study and to pay a birthday call. Just... Just... Nephew, I really have something to ask for! Someone wants to be recommended by you to the military academy! "


    Eh? It was rare for him to ask her for other people''s affairs. She was curious, "who deserves your recommendation from this palace?"


    Jing Hua raised her face and said with a serious bow, "tell your mother, I know that the military academy is an important secret. It''s hard for anyone to see the secret. This time, commander Wu invited knowledgeable generals of the Fourth Army to participate in the establishment and operation of the college, which is a heaven given opportunity. I would like to recommend that the person admitted to the hospital be surnamed Yue Mingwang banner. "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t react for a moment, "Yue Wangqi? He is... "


    "Do you remember Wang Qi?"


    She suddenly realized, "the original name of Wang Qi is Wang Qi?"


    "Exactly. His father used to be Zisang veteran Yue Zhixiong. He taught him martial arts since childhood and took him to the battle to kill the enemy. The mother is the daughter of the side branch of zisangjing''s family. So it can be regarded as a sideline of Jing family. Now, he is working with a side branch of zisangjing''s family, and his relatives are detained in another Palace on the outskirts of Junyao city. Half a month ago, he sent a Book of war to his minister. After reading it, I deeply felt that he was very tactful and knowledgeable. I also heard that the military academy was recruiting professors, so I wanted to recommend Wang Qi. However, the minister was modest, and when he heard that Wang Qi had an old relationship with his mother, he dared to ask her for recommendation for him. "


    She sneered, "it''s more than a military strategy and extraordinary insight. Just this time, he can send news smoothly from your heavily guarded suburban other palaces, and successfully let you run all the way back to recommend him. It can be seen that this man''s strategy is really unusual. "


    Jing Hua smiled bitterly and said, "I can''t hide anything from you! When I was in Liangzhou, I had a relationship with Wang Qi and knew that he was righteous and had a good attitude towards advance and retreat. This time he was trapped in another Palace by the fish pond. He was really a little inferior. Now the country of Wuliang is facing great changes. It is at the moment of employment. I dare you to recommend him to the military academy and show his talents. "


    "Suffer from the fish pond? That''s too light. Anyway, he is also a collateral blood relative who enjoys the protection of zisangjing family. This hatred of destroying the country really doesn''t leave a trace in his heart? " Zhuo Xi said frankly.


    Jing Hua''s face showed a sad color, "madam, to tell you the truth, the minister followed the king all the way south and quickly subdued the twelve Zisang counties. At that time, he went all the way south, feeling energetic and happy about gratitude and hatred. However, in the past few months in Junyao City, although there has been a busy transition between the old and the new, many people often see their wives and children separated and miserable in and out of the city. At the beginning, the minister thought it was the improper management of the bottom officials. He bowed and asked about their relatives. They all broke down and died because of the war. Empress, you don''t know. On that day, Junyao attacked only one column of incense outside the city, and the garrison captain surrendered to protect the city. However, within the time of this incense column, the former Zisang garrison soldiers were killed by the iron gun, and thousands of people were injured. Hearing this, the minister was in a cold sweat and ordered people to check the twelve cities occupied by Zisang all the way south. More than 67000 soldiers and soldiers died and countless injured. These soldiers who died in the war were not allowed to join the new army because they had no reward and no military merit. The families of these wounded and dead soldiers lost their dependence and had no livelihood. I thought that the purpose of the war was for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, but I never knew that I had caused such terrible casualties. What''s more, many of these people who lost their trust belonged to the same family as the people of Wuliang thirty years ago. The minister thought that only those who stood closest to the supreme ruler would have a deep understanding of family hatred and national hatred. But the fact is quite the opposite. The people who have nothing to do with the rulers and live like ants are the direct victims of national hatred and family hatred; But those kings, relatives and relatives lived like fish in water in other palaces. Since there was nothing they could do, they had to forget the dynasty that changed the day. Therefore, I thought that Wang Qi and his like were willing to devote their talents to regain their freedom. If I don''t want to be cold, I can''t accept them. Let them have two hearts. I can only say that I don''t want to be cold, but there are still some immoral things... "


    Zhuo Xi listened to such a long article and sighed, "so you invited Wang Qi to the military academy to let him announce the experience of the fallen ministers to the world?"


    "Only through the pain of war can we have the desire for peace. Only through the pain of losing family can we learn to cherish life on the battlefield. The iron gun artifact is extremely powerful. Naturally, we are lucky. But on the battlefield, not only our soldiers'' lives are lives, but also the lives of the enemy have dignity. I hope that Wang Qi''s contribution to the war can minimize casualties on the battlefield, so that the enemy can cherish the lives of its officers and soldiers and our side can cherish the lives of the other side, so as to prevent the abuse of divine artillery and maiming innocent lives. You should know that a life on the battlefield has sheltered the lives of at least three or five people and more than ten people. "


    Zhuo Xi was deeply shocked. Banning the abuse of weapons is the basic premise for reaching a consensus on peaceful coexistence in modern times. Unexpectedly, Jing Hua had such an idea so early. However, since the belling state now has weapons that are far beyond the reach of the other four countries, how can it stop the pace of expedition? Jing Hua also understood this, so she only proposed that weapons should not be abused, right?


    In an instant, she laughed, "you sympathize with the more than 67000 people who died under the iron cannon. Can you sympathize with the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who lost their lives in the war on the borders of the five countries in the past 30 years? Controlling violence with violence is an irresistible historical trend. Now that the destiny has come to our country, we are destined to write the history of unifying the world. Only when the five countries are unified will the years of war end and the people of the five countries return to peace and prosperity. "


    "Pa pa pa -" a burst of applause broke out, "what a history destined to be written by don''t cool to unify the world!"

 Chapter 208

    Jing Yuan strided in and didn''t know how long he had been listening outside.


    Zhuo Xi and Jing Hua saluted him.


    Jing Yuan sat down and didn''t wait for them to speak. He said, "I recommend Wang Qi to the military academy."


    Jing Hua was overjoyed, "thank you, king."


    Jing Yuan said, "good birds choose trees to live in. Wang Qi has such an idea, which is also human nature. Moreover, if he has such means, he is also a talented person. The military academy is in Kyoto. Under my eyes, I''m sure he can''t turn out any waves. However, "he sat up straight and asked coldly," what he wants to say and how to say it, he has to write the content first and allow the president to discuss it before he can speak. And when he teaches, he needs someone to listen. "


    Jing Hua nodded again and again. After all, he is a subjugated minister. Don''t spread some bad remarks.


    But Jing Yuan said in a deep voice, "Duke Dingyuan, you left the political affairs of Junyao cities for no reason. You said, what crime should I ask you?"


    A force of coercion immediately came towards Jing Hua. He only felt a cool air rising from under his feet, "king, king, minister is, minister is to... Come back to celebrate the Empress Dowager''s birthday!" With filial piety as an excuse, sixth uncle can''t blame him, can he?


    Zhuo Xi immediately pulled down the stage, "he said a few days ago that he came back and refused to marry. Just refused again. "


    "Oh?" Jing Yuan looked at Jing Hua like a torch.


    Jing Hua was sweating coldly and begged for mercy, "aunt, my nephew just said that I don''t know if I can find the silver lock. Where can I talk about refusing to marry..."


    "Eh? Not refusing to marry? That is to say, have you agreed to the marriage? " Zhuo Xi deliberately struck while the iron was hot.


    Jing Hua''s face twisted into bitter orange, "the silver lock lost its harvest for a long time. I''m afraid it will take some time to find it..." can you leave some room?


    "Absurd, do you mean that if you can''t find this token, the marriage that your mother should have written will not be counted?"


    "No, no... my nephew just thinks..." isn''t the reputation of the Liu family tired of being laughed to death?


    "What do you think? Do you think Miss Liu is not worthy of you? " Jing Yuan said coldly again, "I still think the reputation of the Liu family will pollute the reputation of your Dingyuan Hou?"


    Jing Hua suddenly realized that she had made a mistake. She was only seventeen and became a marquis. If she had another wife of a noble family of Degao aristocratic family... If the woman was arranged by someone with a heart to let him refuse to marry and marry someone else, wouldn''t she be trapped by others? I am already in a high position. If I have an ambitious wife family? With this thought, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.


    He immediately alerted, "nephew dare not, nephew let his aunt decide -"


    Zhuo Xi laughed. What is a mouse? She''s seen a cat, but she''s really seen it.


    Jing Yuan didn''t let him go. When he left, he said, "don''t bother your aunt with such little things in the future..."


    His feet almost stumbled when he just stood up straight. The marriage of his distant Hou and the king''s nephew has become a "small matter" that can''t "annoy" the queen. What kind of big matter does the queen deal with every day?


    Jing Hua breathed a long sigh of relief when she got out of the palace and got on the carriage.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    The next day, Jing Hua took the exquisite silver lock containing beads found by the nanny and sent it to Ning''an palace.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t have time to see him, so he had to give the silver lock to the Spring Festival Gala. Then I met Wu Xing when I came out. Wu Xing is busy with the establishment of the military academy. After hearing this, Jing Hua couldn''t help saying that there was nothing wrong anyway. She went to visit the College under construction.


    As soon as he saw it, he was immediately frightened by the small hill like bamboo slips of war - Wu Xing summoned many clerical officials to copy the war books. He picked up a roll at random and glanced at it, but he couldn''t put it down any more. He was deeply impressed by the language. Wu Xing had no time to control him, so he was happy to go in and out freely. Since then, he has come to the college to report every day, and from time to time, he has discussed the allusions with the original veterans, which makes him feel more and more exquisite.


    The woman never showed up again. Jing Hua gradually forgot about it in her eager study at the military academy.


    After the king agreed to Yue Wangqi, he wrote to Junyao city. After all, Wang Qi is an imperial family in custody, and it will take some time both in formalities and on the way. He went to the temporarily arranged teaching and research room day by day to study the profound teaching materials. Sometimes Wu Xing sent him the task of inspector''s correction.


    Wu Xing was even more busy. The new site of the college is still under construction. According to the Queen''s design, there should be not only classrooms, offices, canteens, fitness equipment, simulation battlefield, but also dormitories, bathrooms, leisure areas, etc. it is planned to implement military centralized management. Some classrooms, teaching and research rooms and other relevant places should be built with strictly confidential devices... As well as personnel, teaching materials, fund management Equipment procurement... The temporary office in the small wing room in the west of the palace has also temporarily secluded a temporary living room.


    One day when Jing Hua saw Wu Xing, she was really tired. Together with several other colleagues, she forced him to go out to eat and drink and relax.


    After three rounds of drinking, everyone was a little drunk. Jing Hua whispered with Wu Xing. He asked Wu Xing, "commander Wu, do you have any idea about the girl whom the Empress Dowager arbitrarily engaged you?"


    Wu Xing looked at him with clear eyes and said, "it''s up to his parents to decide the big marriage. It''s also the grace of the Empress Dowager. What can I complain about? I and other men just need to work hard on the battlefield to get a wife, shadow and son and honor our ancestors. Marry a wife and a virtuous person. A virtuous person has his parents to check. What do you worry about? As long as you take good care of it, are you still afraid of the house? "


    He looked up and drank a large glass of wine. What came to mind was that in that winter, on the verdant mountain, the woman who led them to escape from the snake pit, cliff and sea of fire like a God, the slender figure who leaned against the hidden cave door and told them to carry the injured carefully... That figure, Finally became an unattainable dream... Since it''s not this one, what does it matter which one it is? What does it matter whether it''s early or late?


    Jing Hua murmured, "as long as you care carefully, you can have a peaceful house?" His tongue grew bigger. "Would you be unwilling? Have you ever had a favorite woman? What if, in the future, you meet someone you particularly like? "


    Wu Xing smiled bitterly. What if he had¡° No, so I won''t be reconciled. A big husband does something and doesn''t. If you meet someone you really like in the future, you can come back and be a concubine! "


    Jing Hua Yusai, is that what most men think? Is he really influenced by uncle Liu? What was his idea of "one person for life" when he wandered around the world? That''s ridiculous! He has become the king and will soon be in three palaces and six courtyards. Why should he have a double all his life?


    Thinking of coming back, how did uncle Liu have such an idea? Is there really a man willing to give up a forest for a tree?


    In his heart, the beautiful face under the veil and hat loomed again... Now that he has handed over all the silver locks, it''s too late for any conspiracy! He seems to have a little pleasure again - he deserves you not to show up earlier, he deserves you not to show up these days... He somehow finds himself inexplicable - is he longing for this conspiracy or hating it?


    The Empress Dowager''s birthday is coming soon.


    On the day before November 20, the Empress Dowager married Hou Jinghua of Dingyuan and Liu Hanzhu, the daughter of the Liu family in Yizhou, on the grounds of accepting the last wish of Queen Huiyuan. Since Miss Liu San herself was in Zhangjia, her ancestor outside Kyoto, yizhi sent it directly to Zhangjia''s residence. Zhang Jia led the crowd to accept the order, and Zhang Liu, the mother of Miss Liu San, was crying


    The next day, the Queen Mother''s birthday.


    This is the first large-scale national banquet organized by Zhuo Xi.


    But she didn''t want to be too original. Only the reform was carried out on the tables and chairs - the small table of two people was removed and replaced with a large round table of ten people. She didn''t care about the guests who came to celebrate her birthday. She just wanted to let her family sit together at a table, eat well and have a chat.


    Sure enough, when the Empress Dowager received the greetings from all the life women in the main hall and arranged gifts in return, she moved the rack to the side hall for dinner. When she saw such a big round table, her eyes lit up. Since her last trip to Mingxiao mountain, she has loved the scene of a family eating around a table.


    Let her relive this feeling. It''s really better than any gift.


    She looked at Zhuo Xi eagerly. Zhuo Xi immediately understood and hurriedly asked everyone to sit down. She arranged several close family members, such as the two empress dowager''s closest wangchangji, two Xiaojun Ji, Mrs. Qin with xiaohuan''er, the second daughter of Wujin Bo''s house with the new xiaoshisun, on the main table, and the rest were distributed far and near according to their relatives.


    She knew that there were many side branches of the Jing family. Most of the close ones were sealed as Duke and Marquis, and several nephews had their own positions.


    At the beginning of the banquet, music and wine cups circulated. Song and dance is a traditional song and dance. The dishes are the dishes used to in the palace, but they attracted the unanimous praise of the ladies outside the palace. The host and the guest enjoyed a banquet.


    In the end, when the song was over, Zhuo Xi announced, "don''t hurry. There''s another program waiting for you to go upstairs after you''ve had enough."


    So they crowded the birthday star to the new double star building.


    The one in the East is where women''s families ascend, and the one in the West has men standing tall.


    Everyone looked up to the sky one after another, thinking that they had come to watch the stars and the moon, and praised the sound of bright moon and sparse stars one after another.


    Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and snickered without explaining. She only winked at chunnuan. Chunnuan turned and made a gesture in the distance.


    For a moment, just listening to the sound of "porphyrin", a fire burst into the sky, and immediately bloomed brilliant colorful flowers in the night. One after another, they began to lament with the disappearance of the brilliant spark. Then another flower bloomed in front, with a much larger diameter. The people were frightened and surprised, boiling unceasingly.

 Chapter 209

    The Empress Dowager was stunned. She held Zhuo Xi''s hand for a long time and asked, "Xi''er, this is..."


    Zhuo Xi replied, "it''s called fireworks. As the name suggests, it''s like smoke. It''s short and gorgeous. It''s something made by Lin lang. I want to make my mother laugh! "


    The Empress Dowager laughed and said, "it''s Miss Lin Lang who made it! Is she here? There is a reward for mourning! "


    The last four words amplified the volume, and then heard someone respond loudly at the bottom, "go back to the empress dowager, the people''s daughter is here, the people''s daughter is here!" What''s the reward? She likes it best!


    Ha ha, everyone laughed.


    The gorgeous night passed, and the beautiful fireworks left in people''s mind became an indelible mark. People asked about the origin of this thing one after another. More shrewd businessmen searched everywhere for the method of making this object. Seeing a huge business opportunity unfolding in Kyoto, Lin Lang, the inventor of the patent, sat on the main hall of Ning''an palace with a sad face.


    I have taught Yu Meng all the methods of refining oil, and I have also taught him the method of making fireworks and kerosene lamps. He just turned a blind eye to such a huge business opportunity! He seems to have no interest in making money. He just sits in the laboratory day by day, constantly studying how to refine the oil more pure... "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t think so. "If he likes it, let him do it well. You can''t force everyone to get into the eyes of money like you? "


    Lin Lang was so angry that he stretched out his five fingers: "different ways do not conspire! Now I''ve finished everything you asked for. Bring the blood jade quickly! "


    Zhuo Xi slowly turned over the memorial in front of her and said slowly, "what''s the hurry? You have to wait until the new year''s Eve anyway. Why don''t you go to the military academy that brother is preparing to build these days? See where the design is not perfect, help give advice, and give guidance where the workers do wrong. "


    Lin Lang jumped up and walked out, "forget it, when I don''t know you..."


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "Cui Jiu and Wang Qi are doing coolies in the college!"


    Lin Lang turned back like a whirlwind, "what? Really? Cui Jiu came out? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her. "Wang Qidu was summoned to work from Junyao city all the way. It''s unreasonable for Cui Jiu to stay in other palaces and enjoy happiness!"


    Lin Lang immediately smiled and said, "where is the college? What do you want me to do? I listen to you! "


    Zhuo Xi also immediately smiled, "there are a group of old scholars studying those heavenly books you wrote. Go and give them a lecture. Don''t let them misinterpret the good military books! "


    After the Empress Dowager''s birthday banquet, she sighed again, "even you have become literate. Can I not make some regrets?"


    Everyone is changing. Eldest brother from original impulse to kill one of the his own Wufu, became a five life of theficial who thought everything carefully and could pick beam alone; Jing Hua became the Lord of the ruling party from the hairy boy who could not avoid things at that time; Jing Yuan also changed from the cold, alienated and refusing people thousands of miles away on that day to the warm, considerate and thoughtful little husband now; Even myself, at first, wanted to escape the shackles of kingship and patriarchy, but now I am immersed in the peak of power and enjoy it more. Sometimes I have to play a guest professional matchmaker? The important thing is, are you happy? Happy? After that, if it has been like this for decades, are you willing? What else do you want to do and realize? On the contrary, if there is a state that you don''t want to accept in the future, how to deal with it at that time?


    She couldn''t answer these questions. Because she never planned her life, whether in her previous life or this life.


    The only future she can see is this little life in her belly.


    Thinking of this, she sighed again. A few years later, I still can''t escape being a guest matchmaker... Maybe I''ll always be a guest matchmaker in my later life... Such as the warmth of spring in front of me


    "How old is it this year?" she asked


    Chunnuan looked at her strangely and replied, "it''s fifteen."


    She was surprised. "Fifteen? And hairpin ceremony? Are you engaged? "


    Chunnuan smiled, "where does anyone care about hairpins when we are such an abandoned child who doesn''t know where our parents are? Not to mention engagement... "


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "why don''t we make a matchmaker for you? Have you ever thought about marrying someone? "


    Chunnuan blushed, "madam, I''m not going to marry. I want to stay with her all the time."


    "This is really the best lie..." Zhuo Xi sighed.


    "It''s not a lie. I really think so. Today''s life is something that slaves never dare to think of. It''s too good...... "she doesn''t know how to describe it.


    Zhuo Xi took a sip of the tea cup and said with a smile, "although the palace maids have a rule that they can''t go out of the palace until they are 25 years old, the female officials don''t have the requirement to go out of the palace and the restriction that they are not allowed to marry. If you really have something to look at, don''t be polite! "


    Chunnuan was an abandoned child since childhood. After several years of civil and military training in the feather clothes club, he knew early that he would only be a slave and a maid in the future. As for the major events of marriage, just ask the owner''s family to pay a little attention to her, and don''t arbitrarily point out a person who is weak and physically disabled. How ever had such an idea that one day they could choose their own husband and son-in-law? She was stunned for a moment. After a long time, her cheeks flushed and said angrily, "madam! Chunnuan has his own memory. He grew up in a big family like the badminton club. He was lucky to learn some fur Kung Fu and read some books. I thought if I could have a good host to take care of in my life, I would be desperate. I never thought I could have such great fortune. The maidservant was already very satisfied and did not dare to think of anything else. Lady, what the maid said is true. Let the maidservant stay with you all the time. "

 Chapter 210

    Zhuo Xi looked at her carefully and said, "yo! Look, our spring warmth is also a beauty! "


    Chunnuan covered his face, "my mother! I won''t tell you! "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "look at you, you are all five life female officials. You always love to call yourself a slave! Being a woman, just a few years. Although career is important, life events are also important. As I just said, being a female official is not contradictory to getting married and having children... "


    She suddenly remembered another person, "speaking of five life female officials... What progress has Xiao soul made now?"


    Chunnuan put down her hands and said, "it''s said that sister Xianglan has come back from Dingzhou. She used to be the maid of Lord Ji''s house. I can ask her to testify about something. Tingwei''s residence officially accepted the case before and began to verify the files of that year, but I heard that the originator was not small, and I''m afraid it''s difficult to try again for a while... Sister Ji now lives with sister Ke min, and I don''t know how her injury is... "


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was chilly. Then he remembered that the initiator was Wang Jing''s survival. How can the case be pushed forward smoothly? While secretly annoyed at her carelessness, she asked her to send someone to invite Zi Ran to come over.


    When Wu Xing and Peng went out of the palace and got into their own carriage, their thoughts rolled, but Peng whispered softly, "the queen, she is really good, very good."


    She was naturally good. He knew she was good since he and she sneaked into King Wu''s mausoleum to create the illusion of broken hands. Although it was her means of self-protection, it was also for the sake of the lives of his brothers in the battalion. Later, in the verdant mountain, she asked people to send a message to teach the brothers in the distance not to sacrifice for no reason and never give up a wounded or even a slave... She clearly did not have the lofty sense of the superior, but she did not have the sense of servility and inferiority of the inferior. It seemed that every life was equal in her eyes... She was really strange. No one knows her origin better than him. How could the slave who escaped from the death of the funeral procession in the tomb have such an idea? He always knew that she was lonely. In Hou''s house, she is a female official. Although Hou Ye is kind to her, he always sees that she doesn''t care about things around her, as if she is ready to leave at any time. She came to the Wu family as a sixth sister. Although she was really loved by her grandmother, he couldn''t find attachment in her eyes. After all, the Wu family is not her real home, and he can understand it. But why did she finally marry the person who loved her and spoiled her, or fell into a coma like leaving again? The king gave him sad eyes when he left. He wanted to go out with the king, but he wanted to stay and protect her. Sure enough, the king rejected his request to join the army as he wished. He breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was not allowed to enter the Queen''s bedroom, he could linger outside her palace in the name of duty every night. That was the nearest place to her. As long as there was no bad news, it was good news. He heard that she couldn''t afford to sleep for a long time; When he heard that she seemed to wake up, he drank some water and went to sleep again; He heard her mumbling in her dream... Finally, he heard that she was completely awake. But when she woke up, she regained her former estrangement from thousands of miles away... He could even imagine that she was alone and looked at the shaking look of the medicine bag hanging in front of the window - that was a way she used to hypnotize in the suburbs. Did she want to hypnotize herself? Why does she have insomnia? He never dared to have other ideas. In the past, she was the appropriate servant of the Marquis, later the Marquis''s wife, and now she is the head of the harem. After a country... She has only one identity with him - that is, his six younger sisters. He never cared about his marriage, but when he heard that she had personally contributed to the Empress Dowager''s marriage, there was a trace of resistance, so he devoted himself to the construction of the college and did not worry about the marriage for two months. Jing Hua''s question woke him up that day. He also knew that he had a responsibility on his shoulder, so he was a little relieved. But when he opened the bride''s veil yesterday and saw the beautiful face hidden under it, he was surprised. He heard that Peng was over 16 and had not been engaged yet. He thought he was ugly and no one wanted to see him. He didn''t expect to be so bright and moving. At the moment he entered her tender body, he couldn''t help thinking of the figure of self hypnosis sitting in the window of Ning''an palace... It was her painful cry that awakened him. He was surprised that he didn''t know when he had developed such a dirty idea. He was full of guilt and tenderness, so he was surprised to taste the good taste of the wedding night... He got up in the morning, His wife''s gentle service, the generosity and propriety of tea and marriage recognition made him happy, but he felt more and more guilty. Unexpectedly, her "sister-in-law" without airs in the upper position of Ning''an palace made him feel unprecedented relaxed at that moment. From then on, he was just her eldest brother and subordinate. Everything about himself and the Wu family was brought by the six younger sisters. What else did he dare to ask for? He has always been difficult to describe her with any adjectives. He just thinks everything about her is very good and good


    Now the new wife in front of me also said she was very good, very good


    Is this how your wife feels about her?


    He turned back from his absence. He couldn''t help shaking her hand and smiling at her. He was even proud, "that''s, although she is a high queen, she is also the sixth sister of our family. On weekdays, she has heavy affairs, and now she is pregnant. You are her sister-in-law. You should pay more attention to some things. When you have time, you can go to the palace to accompany her. "


    Peng was flattered. I got married late when I was older. I was afraid that my husband''s family would have a grudge. Before I got married, I heard that my mother-in-law had complained about it, so the two families hurriedly handled the marriage years ago. Last night, her husband''s tenderness and consideration once made her think it was her illusion. In addition, when I went to the palace to thank you today, my husband was worried. He was even more afraid of making mistakes. He didn''t dare to act rashly and was careful with his words. Unexpectedly, the queen didn''t put on airs at all. She affectionately called herself "sister-in-law" and intimately told herself to take good care of her husband''s body. Then she sighed gently. I saw my husband wandering outside the sky and thought he had said something wrong. Unexpectedly, my husband took his hand and asked himself to accompany the queen more.


    Is this the real care between brother and sister? Rather than some utilitarian heart to please


    She answered "yes" softly and looked at her husband holding his hand with a red face. The big hand was rough and even with a thick cocoon, but she felt at ease as never before. She suddenly had confidence in her future life and the love and respect of her husband. Why should she worry about living a bad life?


    Wu Xing was stunned when she looked at her rough big hand. He thought that the hard cocoon left by holding the knife for many years hurt her, so he subconsciously loosened it. However, he saw that her other hand also stretched out and held his right hand, gently stroked the cocoon on the tiger''s mouth, and gently asked himself: "it was hard to fight in the battlefield before?"


    Her hands were tender and smooth, caressing her skin like a heat flow. This fiery tremor swept him in an instant. He couldn''t help holding her hands. He leaned over and pressed her against the wall of the carriage. His hands clasped with her fingers and kissed her as soon as he lowered his head. The feeling of lips and teeth makes him intoxicated, and the feeling of tongue and mouth makes him excited. For a long time, he straightened up on her soft body leaning against the car wall. Her closed eyelashes trembled slightly, and he couldn''t help kissing her eyes.


    She shrank for a moment.


    He sat up straight, picked up her soft body and held it in his arms, "what''s the matter? But it hurts again? " He knew her pain last night. Seeing her walking this morning was a little unnatural. He thought that this press made her feel pain again.


    Her voice was like a mosquito, "no... Just..."


    He looked sideways at her drooping neck, and from there to her earlobe was pink. He couldn''t help avoiding her eardrop and sucked at her neck.


    For her exclamation and refusal, "husband!"


    He looked at her in surprise: "what''s the matter?"


    She still blushed and whispered softly, "you''re like this. How can I get off and meet people later?"


    "Hahaha..." he laughed loudly and suddenly felt that the future days could be expected


    After Zi Ran came to see the queen, he explained Ji Qing''s case to the sky.


    It turned out that after Ji ruomin sounded the four drums in front of Tingwei''s house that day, he rolled the nail board in the street as usual, and then let Tingwei''s house accept her complaint.


    The case originally turned over by Tingwei''s house is actually related to the honged king an, who wants to detain Ji ruomin in prison. Zi Ran came forward and was guaranteed by the queen on the grounds that she was seriously injured. Only then did she move her to the health care hall and let Ke min and others take care of her. Then Ziran sent someone to look through the old files with Tingwei''s house to verify the truth. However, due to the wide range of cases involved in that year, many relevant people executed the execution. Moreover, some things involved king an, and there were really some misgivings, so the investigation was slower. A few days ago, Captain Wang asked people to hold several volumes of files about the day of the week. Some clues were confirmed. He asked the spearhead to go directly to the day of the week, which enabled the Tingwei house to start the trial smoothly.


    Zhuo Xi was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "has the trial been opened? But the case will be closed soon? "


    Zi Ran said with a wry smile, "since the last time Zhao Jiawa intercepted the king and the Queen''s mother in the suburbs of Beijing, general Zhou was afraid that the situation would be exposed and affect his family. On the one hand, he asked people to put pressure on the Empress Dowager to send the daughter of a side branch of the Zhou family into the palace to confuse the imperial concubine, and on the other hand, he asked his son Zhou Min to quietly hide his direct family to the northern border. Originally, the king intended to send Wang Feng to take over Zhou Ji''s military power on the grounds that the war was unfavorable. Only then did he want to find an excuse to attack him and escort him back to Kyoto. Unexpectedly, the day before the change of military power, the news leaked out. Zhou Ji suddenly disappeared with thousands of personal soldiers. Fortunately, General Wang was equipped with many excellent weapons and 20000 elite soldiers who were originally stationed in Heyong pass, To suppress the chaos and win a complete victory in the war in the north. Since this case involves several weeks, it is bound to wait until he is arrested and brought to justice before the trial is concluded... "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "if he doesn''t come to the case all the time, will the Ji family''s case hang like this?"


    Zi Ran hesitated and said, "it''s not. The Ministry of punishment has a law that if key prisoners don''t come to the case, they must be searched for three years before they can try the case with other witnesses and evidence..."


    "Three years!?" Zhuo Xi was surprised, "there''s no other way?"


    Zi Ran smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No. Therefore, the minister is now widely soliciting news in recent weeks to arrest him as soon as possible. "


    Zhuo Xi felt powerless... She had to send many supplements to the Yangsheng hall to visit Ji ruomin. Fortunately, when the people who went back reported that Miss Ji was now well enough to walk down the ground, she was a little relieved.


    When Jing Yuan came in the evening, she asked about it. Jing Yuan only said, "leave it alone and leave it all to me. Just sooner or later. "


    She was shocked when she heard it. It seemed that no man had told her that he had nothing to do with it. This feeling, I feel so relieved

 Chapter 211

    Soon after two days, it was new year''s Eve again. Zhuo Xi didn''t have to worry about sending Laba porridge. The Shaofu drew up a distribution plan according to the original rules. She just needed to approve the word "quasi". Jing Yuan saw that she was so relaxed, so he gave her all the chores such as giving vegetables on New Year''s Eve. She still asked the inner government to write a memorial according to the previous practice and approve it. Like this, from sending new year''s gifts to the empress dowager, to the new year''s clothes reward to the maid eunuch, the Shaofu drew up plans according to the old practice. She didn''t bother to worry about it. She did it all according to the old practice, and several old people in the palace, chief Wu and the Spring Festival Gala, kept watch. There was nothing wrong with being so busy.


    Finally, it''s new year''s Eve.


    Zhuo Xi attended the palace banquet on the 30th of the lunar new year last year.


    This year, she sat at the top of the highest seat and accepted the pilgrimage worship of internal and external life women. She was really filled with emotion.


    This time, needless to say, the Shaofu replaced the tables and chairs with round tables.


    As usual, the Queen Mother''s main table is a close family member, which is very happy.


    As the Queen''s mother''s family, all the women of the Wu family came. Zhuo Xi recognized the two aunts, an aunt and two married sisters of the Wu family. So she felt that she had two more nieces and three nieces on her shoulders


    It was the time of the sea when the host and the guest had a good time.


    ShouSui ShouSui, although ShouSui generally has to wait until the midnight of the new year. But the rule in the palace is to let them go back at the time of Hai and spend the last hour with their family until midnight.


    Of course, none of this is the point.


    The point is that tonight is new year''s Eve.


    Zhuo Xi returned to Ning''an palace tiredly. After grooming, Jing Yuan also ended the banquet of the courtiers and returned to the bedroom.


    Zhuo Xi saw him coming in wet. She hurriedly pressed him to sit on the Kang and took a dry cloth to wipe his hair.


    After wiping, he put his hair in a bun again.


    He was a little strange. He found that although she was in civilian clothes, she was not the one she wore at bedtime, and her hair was loosely pulled into a Zan.


    Zhuo Xi cunningly winked at him, "if you want to watch the night on New Year''s Eve, how can you go to bed so early?"


    Jing Yuan took her into his arms, "you''re still pregnant. After a hard day today, I''d better go to bed early. "


    Zhuo Xi shook his hand, "no, let''s pick the stars upstairs!"


    Jing Yuan had a bad feeling at the bottom of his heart and lay lazily on the hot Kang. "It''s cold. I''m afraid the stars are cold enough to hide. We''d better nest on the hot Kang."


    Zhuo Xi sat next to him, took his hand and covered it on his already high belly. "The baby is not sleepy, he said he wants to see the stars..."


    He yawned deliberately, "he can''t open his eyes! Tell him that when he comes out, dad will take him to see the stars every day! "


    Zhuo Xi forcibly pulled him up, "don''t sleep! Don''t sleep! Don''t you want to know whether the baby is a boy or a girl? "


    Jing Yuan became more and more alert and didn''t want to go, "No. You said it yourself, it''s the same for men and women... "


    She leaned over his ear and coaxed him, "but I really want to know. If you know, you can prepare clothes and toys for your baby in advance... Just accompany me, okay? "


    Jing Yuan turned over, pressed her in his arms, avoided her towering stomach, buried his head in her neck and shoulders, and didn''t speak.


    Zhuo Xi pushed him, "go, go! Get up and go! "


    "No, no, I won''t let you go!" He hugged her tightly in a childish way.


    She trembled and dared not move.


    He, who fell on her, was silent and just hugged her more and more tightly.


    She vaguely felt that the skin between her neck seemed to flow through a little warm liquid.


    She tried hard to push him away. He didn''t move.


    Neither of them dared to speak. They were deeply afraid to break the silence at this moment.


    Suddenly, he took a trembling deep breath, let go of her and sat up.


    Zhuo Xi also hurriedly sat up and looked at his eyes. It was really wet.


    He stared at her, his lips curled again and again, finally lowered his eyes and asked, "are you leaving?"


    Zhuo Xi felt a pain in her heart and said with a strong smile, "no, where can I go?"


    He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch her, but he retracted, "don''t lie to me. Didn''t you make an appointment with Lin Lang to go back to the school today?"


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes, suddenly smiled, grabbed his hand and asked, "if I really go back, won''t you go with me?"


    The decadent color on his face swept away and his eyes brightened. He quickly and vigorously shook her palm, and his face also burst into a look, "can I come with you? Naturally, we can go anywhere as long as we are together! "


    Zhuo Xi''s tears fell down without warning. The man said without thinking that he would go with her... She smiled with tears and asked, "do you know what it means to go? There is no throne, no power, and no future to dominate the world... "


    He opened his palm and shook her fingers. "It doesn''t matter. As long as you have it, what if you give up everything?"


    Her tears grew worse and worse. He picked her up and strode out.


    "Where are you going?!" She exclaimed.


    He said with a smile, "doesn''t it mean that an immortal will pick you up tonight? I''ll go and see! "


    She beat him. "Put me down! It''s very cold outside. Put on a cloak! "


    Hearing the last sentence, he quickly let her down before going out. Then they found that neither of them was wearing shoes, and they folded back and put on their shoes. Chunnuan held his cloak and waited at the door. He carefully tied the belt of the sable cloak for her, and put one on himself. Then he took her hand and went all the way to the star picking building.


    When Jing Yuan had just ascended the throne, Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered the famous twin towers of later generations one day. At that time, he summoned Kou anding to come and say a preliminary idea to him. I didn''t expect Jing Yuan to give strong support after knowing that he built these two six-story star picking buildings in a few months. At that time, she did not expect that the star picking building should have such a purpose.


    When Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi laboriously climbed onto the six storey top floor platform, they saw a woman standing against the wind on the railing of the opposite east floor platform.


    Lin Lang had been anxiously waiting for a long time at the East Tower. When he saw them, he hurried to the edge of the platform and said loudly, "Zhuo Xi, you are too slow! Hurry up, give me the blood jade! "


    Zhuo Xi took out the blood jade that had been hanging in her skirt and said with a smile, "what''s the hurry? It''s not time yet!"


    Jing Yuan held her hand tightly for fear that she would suddenly disappear.


    Lin Lang stretched out his hand, smiled and scolded, "how did you get to that building! Didn''t you say it was on the east side? "


    "How can you defeat your Wulin expert at this distance?"


    Jing Yuan''s hand tightened. Zhuo Xi calmly shook his hand and continued, "let him fly over and take it!"


    Lin Lang tilted his mouth and made a gesture behind him.


    Sure enough, a figure flew out. Jing Yuan picked up the blood jade in Zhuo Xi''s hand and threw it at the figure.


    The figure reached out his hand and flew to the railing of the West building. He pointed his toes and flew back to the East building.


    The figure stood still. It was Cui Jiu.


    Cui Jiu handed the blood jade to Lin Lang, "what I promised you has been done, and the great kindness has been reported. I''ll go now."


    Lin Lang shouted, "wait a minute!" He grabbed his hand and said hurriedly, "you promised me three requests. Now you have only made one and two."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "Lin Lang, why haven''t you finished him?"


    Jing Yuan looked at her suspiciously, "what does it mean to get it done?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled without saying anything.


    Lin Lang said angrily, "Zhuo Xi, you dead child! Even if you don''t go with me, you don''t have to be so far away from my building! You made me waste a request! "


    Upon hearing this, Jing Yuan immediately brightened his eyes and looked at Zhuo Xi cautiously.


    Zhuo Xi had no consciousness of bad people and good things at all, shrugged and said, "smart as you, are you afraid of not having a thousand opportunities? Besides, when you get there, is he round or flat? "


    Cui Jiu was stiff. Did they mean himself by "he"? Over there. Which way is it? Why didn''t he understand a word of their conversation?


    Lin Lang grabbed his hand and said hurriedly, "come on, it''s too late. You promised me three requests. Now it''s the second one. Take out the things on the red rope here for me. " She tilted her neck and motioned him to see the red rope on her neck.


    Cui Jiu looked at her in embarrassment. Is this her second request? His mother caught a cold a few days ago. He asked the guards of other palaces to ask for a doctor, but no one paid attention to his request. Finally, Lin Lang said he could ask the doctor to cure his mother''s disease, but asked him to promise her three requirements. He thought she would make a difficult request, at least some difficult. Unexpectedly, it was such a simple thing? Why didn''t she let go of her hand and take it out by herself?


    Lin Lang said anxiously, "hurry up!" She held his hand tightly in one hand and zhenhunyu in the other.


    Cui Jiu closed his eyes and carefully pulled out the red rope with his other hand. There was a small blood jade carved into the shape of Phoenix Tail flower between her forehead on the red rope.


    Lin Lang said, "break the rope. Hold it and close it to this zhenhun jade. "


    Cui Jiu was full of doubts. Looking at her anxious face, she softened her heart. She bit the rope with her teeth and stuffed the little Phoenix into the groove of the blood jade in her hand.


    Nothing happened for a long time.


    Lin Lang shook the whole zhenhun jade in his hand. It was still a cold blood jade. There was no movement.


    Zhuo Xi laughed. "You''ve been looking for it for so long. Can you use it without testing it?"


    Lin Lang said angrily, "how dare you say! If you hadn''t been relying on it and didn''t return it to me, how could I not test it? "


    Cui Jiu wanted to take out the hand she had been holding in her hand. Lin Lang roared at him angrily, "don''t move!"


    Cui Jiu was startled. Although he didn''t know what had happened, he had never seen her look so frightened, and his heart was pulled up. He couldn''t cross the barrier in his heart. He always felt that Zisang was killed and he also had an unshirkable responsibility. Therefore, he always showed indifference to her kindness in front of him. Sometimes he was moved in his heart, but he always felt that it was impossible for them to be together in such a situation. At present, seeing Lin Lang close his eyes and meditate in anger, he knew that something important must happen, so he didn''t dare to disturb her any more.

 Chapter 212

    Lin Lang closed his eyes and thought about the environment when he came, blood jade, Phoenix Tail flower core, birthmark on his forehead, dark moon and high wind night, oncoming truck... Yes, moonlight! Is it moonlight?


    She looked up and looked around, but found that the sky was dark. Except for a few scattered stars, the moon didn''t see a side at all. Where''s the moon?


    How did this happen?


    She suddenly remembered that today was new year''s Eve! There is no moon on the 30th and first day of each month!


    She found that she had made such a stupid common sense mistake. Her heart, which had been anxious for a long time, finally couldn''t support it. She was sweet in her mouth, and a trace of warmth flowed down the corner of her mouth. The man also fell down softly.


    Zhuo Xi saw it clearly from the other side. She knew that there must be something wrong. She had already stopped teasing her mind. At the moment, she was angry and spit out a mouthful of blood. She was so scared that she helped her up the railing and asked anxiously, "Lin Lang, are you okay?"


    Jing Yuan was so frightened that she caught her.


    Cui Jiu ran to his forehead with a chill in his heart, trembled to catch Lin Lang, slowly put her on the ground and let her lean against his arms.


    Lin Lang laughed, "I can''t die! I''m a doctoral student at West Point who forgot that there was no moon on New Year''s Eve... "


    Zhuo Xi anxiously pulled Jing Yuan''s sleeve, "come on, take me to fly over."


    Cui Jiu couldn''t understand their conversation. Seeing that the corners of her mouth kept bleeding, her heart became more and more tight. Trembling, she wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth with her hand, and asked in a trembling voice, "lang''er, what''s the matter with you? What the hell happened? "


    Lin Lang stared at him, "you are finally willing to call me lang''er again... I wanted to take you to another place and start all over again... I really didn''t mean to... Would you forgive me if I died?" She opened her mouth and vomited another mouthful of blood.


    Zhuo Xi had already arrived at Lin Lang''s side. The conditional launch site took out a handkerchief to cover the blood in her mouth, but the blood kept pouring out. It was so easy to stop vomiting that she found another handkerchief and wiped her mouth.


    Cui Jiu hugged her and said, "no, no, I never blame you. What I can''t forgive is just myself... Don''t do this... "


    Zhuo Xi also said painfully to Lin Lang, "don''t you save some energy, that is, there is no moon? When the 15th moon is full, just try again? Why do you want to die like this? " She took the blood jade and took it out of Lin Lang''s hand.


    Lin Lang smiled weakly, "will I die if you don''t run? I wanted to choose a good day to leave the old and welcome the new... "


    Cui Jiu said painfully, "how are you?..."


    Lin Lang smiled at Cui Jiu and said, "well... Did you just say that you forgive me? You never blame me? "


    Cui Jiu shook his head and murmured something in her ear.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t see it. She went aside and studied the blood jade carefully.


    Jing Yuan stuck nervously beside her for a moment.


    Feeling his nervousness, she reached out and squeezed his hand to appease him. Then she continued to study the zhenhun jade. She took out the exquisite Phoenix Tail shaped trinket and looked around. She confirmed that it was not installed upside down before she stuffed it back.


    When I stuffed it back, I found the tail of the trinket flashing.


    Zhuo Xi took it out again and found that Lin Lang''s blood had just stained his hand and polluted a corner of the trinket.


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes brightened, smiled and squatted next to Lin Lang again. "I guess what it needs is not moonlight, but your blood."


    Lin Lang struggled to get up and took the blood jade. "What did you say?"


    Zhuo Xi took the Phoenix Tail shaped Trinket over the handkerchief just used to cover the blood in her mouth, soaked the trinket once, and then put it into the zhenhun jade.


    Sure enough, the whole Trinket began to glow faintly.


    Lin Lang was excited, "yes! I was hit by a car and covered with blood... "


    Cui Jiu doesn''t know why.


    Jing Yuan held Zhuo Xi''s hand tightly.


    Only zhuoxi understood what she was talking about. She wore it in a plane crash. Did she wear it in a car accident? Still so miserably see their own blood


    At this time, Lin Lang looked at Zhuo Xi, "have you really decided not to go with me?"


    Zhuo Xi reached Jingyuan''s waist, hugged him, took two steps back, looked at him and said, "I promised him to stay with him and the baby."


    Jing Yuan''s heart was shocked. He hugged her tightly and retreated a few steps further.


    The red light on the blood jade in Lin Lang''s hand is becoming more and more prosperous.


    The Phoenix Tail birthmark on Lin Lang''s forehead also faintly echoes with red light. She would lie down and snuggle up in Cui Jiu''s arms. At this time, she hugged Cui Jiu''s arms, turned her head and shouted to Zhuo Xi, "elder martial sister, take care!"


    For a time, the wind blew everywhere. Cui Jiu saw that his eyes were full of dazzling red light. He couldn''t open his eyes, so he had to close his eyes. In his ear, Lin Lang said, "the third request, never let go of my hand!"


    ¡­¡­


    Jing Yuan was stunned.


    After the red light disappeared, the two people in front of them disappeared without a trace.


    He had excellent martial arts skills. In the process, he kept his eyes blinking. He was basically sure that no one in the world could disappear silently under his own eyes.


    But this scene happened right under my own eyes.


    He hugged Zhuo Xi in his arms with fear.


    After a long silence, he asked slowly, "have they really returned to your school - the place called China?"


    Zhuo Xi said around his waist, "it should be." In fact, she was not sure, "but wherever it is, as long as it is not here, they can have a new beginning; No matter where it is, it''s not a problem for both of them. "


    He took a deep breath. "It''s so cold here. Let''s go back first." He just couldn''t believe the scene in front of him for a moment, but he didn''t have confidence in Wulang and Cui Jiu.


    She nodded and said obediently, "OK."


    There was a fire in the distance. The bodyguard on duty of Jin Yuwei saw the red light running over.


    Jingyuan went downstairs, waved and told them to go back again.


    They returned to the bedroom of Ning''an palace.


    The ground dragon in the hall was burning warm. Zhuo Xi took off his cloak, and the breath of Jing Yuan surrounded him.


    He had drunk some wine at the banquet today. He usually had to chew some fragrant tea before kissing her.


    But he couldn''t care about it today. He eagerly sucked the honey from her mouth, inserted his hands into her bun, and scattered her simple braid. His hand went down her neck into her collarbone, and the clothes were opened from the front chest. His lips moved down all the way and stuck to her collarbone. His fingers felt the belt around her waist. With a gentle pull, several layers of coats spread out layer by layer. When he held her to bed, she had only a dark purple belly pocket left.


    She felt his eagerness, his confusion, and his fear. She opened her stomach to avoid being pressed by him, but her hands tightly clung to his neck, and her red lips gently responded to him, soothing his restless heart.


    "Jing Yuan, Lin Lang has a reason why she has to go. But I didn''t. I won''t go. Don''t worry. I promised you to stay and I will stay. " She always felt that there was a phoenix tail flower between Lin Lang''s forehead on the soul jade of the town. Maybe only Lin Lang could use the jade. When I wear it, I don''t seem to have any utensils. She doesn''t know what she can wear back with


    But how do you explain that? She thought for a while and had to say, "Jing Yuan, my master only gave Lin Lang the blood jade. Now the blood jade has been taken away by her. I can''t go anyway." Should he be satisfied now?


    Jing Yuan relaxed his stiff body, lay on his back on the brocade quilt, and said with lingering fear, "no, I remember that I was afraid your soul flew away, and I went all the way to find zhenhunyu. Unexpectedly, this town soul jade is the magic weapon that can make you go back... Almost, almost I made a big mistake... "


    Zhuo Xi had to comfort him again, "no, look at the Phoenix Tail flower between Lin Lang''s forehead. Only she can start the blood jade. If you put it beside me, it will not have any effect even if you put it for a hundred and eighty years. "


    Jing Yuan took a deep breath. She stiffened and hurriedly wanted to avoid, "no, be careful of the baby." Zhuo Xi''s face burned, "baby, he''ll feel it..."


    Jing Yuan whispered, "I just hold it..."


    Is that what people say?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t know where the thick skin she had trained in her previous life had gone. She only knew that she was becoming more and more shy in front of him... Thinking that he had been abstinent for a long time, she had to soften her body


    After a long time, he finally held her tightly.


    She then knew that this was always an unavoidable problem, and suddenly asked, "there are still several months left. Even if you are born, you still have to have a month. If you are in bad condition, it may take longer... Do you want to... No, no, do you want me to arrange one for you... "


    Jing Yuan immediately understood what she said and directly refused, "No."

 Chapter 213

    Zhuo Xi felt that he said this in this era was somewhat unreliable. Of course, she didn''t want to, but after all, he was the king of a country, and she would be uneasy. She didn''t want to test him, but really wanted to ask, "Jing Yuan, I said that my education made it impossible for me to share my husband with others. But you are not. Can you tell me that in this polygamous system, you will really be willing to keep me a woman all your life? "


    Jing Yuan put his big palm on her stomach and was glad that she asked him directly instead of any other way of temptation, "Xi''er, I don''t want to talk empty words. A long life, I don''t know if I can promise you such a long life. But I know that now I enjoy such a model - getting along with each other equally and being honest. I have requirements for you, and you can also have requirements for me. If I ask you to be loyal to me, I will repay you with the same request. "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized, "are these what Lin Lang told you?"


    "Yes! I don''t know where your school is, and I can''t get in. I can only ask her about your way of life. You see, I can imitate it in this way? "


    Zhuo Xi was greatly shocked from her heart. She always felt that the greatest progress of modern civilization is equality between people. Only equality can make husband and wife really accept the concept of monogamy from their hearts. In any case, she could not imagine that he, the top ruler of the superior and inferior class in the era of slavery, could accept such subversive ideas so easily. No wonder he never interferes in the internal affairs he manages, respects himself in everything and asks for his opinions. No wonder he says he wants to "rule the world and share peace" with himself... This is not just talk.


    Fortunately, I was too lazy to mind my own business. I only focused on my own affairs and did not interfere in the affairs of the court. Therefore, no courtiers raised objections


    However, she was still very curious, "then, who lost to you the idea of a pair all your life?"


    "It''s my mother. The letter left to me by my mother''s concubine said that the greatest happiness of a woman is to have a couple all her life. She warned me that if I met someone I really liked, I should make her happy and let her not fall into jealousy and intrigue... In the next few years, I often traveled abroad and often met many fairies and relatives in the Jianghu. They were very enviable because they were loyal to each other and respected each other. "


    "Mother imperial concubine?" She hadn''t heard him talk about her biological mother for a long time. She had many doubts in her heart, so she asked, "why did the mother Princess prefer to stay in Gelao family rather than return to the palace?" Finally, he fell ill and died in Gelao nationality, and left his last words to never see the former Emperor again in this life. How much resentment and hatred must it be?


    Jing Yuan sighed, "do you remember what I said about my grandmother, the mother of the imperial concubine?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you said that she was the first princess of the Yu family of the Yudian country in the previous dynasty, and then married to the Gelao family."


    He went on, "yes. When my grandmother was young, she went out of the palace and met her handsome grandfather. They had a secret relationship. After returning to the palace, my grandmother forced her to die before the then Yu emperor agreed to their marriage. "


    "At that time, the kingdom of Yudian was still peaceful?"


    "Good. Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, the five kings forced the palace. Although my grandmother was a direct relative of Yu nationality, she was not involved because she had married the head of Gelao nationality. Gelao people are not cool. The father ascended the throne as the queen and married his mother as his wife on the grounds of stabilizing the Gelao family. He loved her very much. But somehow my grandmother died soon after. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "dead? Because of illness? "


    He shook his head slightly and said, "no one knew at that time. It was just that my grandmother was unhappy and getting thinner and thinner. My grandfather and grandmother were deeply in love. After raising my uncle and turning him into a new Gelao patriarch, he also died depressed. "


    "What about the mother imperial concubine?"


    "My mother has been in the palace for more than ten years, and my father has always loved her. I was also able to enjoy the love in the palace that other princes could not enjoy. When I was eleven years old, I asked myself to go south to the military camp. At first, the mother imperial concubine refused, but she couldn''t stand me, so she had to agree. As soon as she was free, she proposed to her father that she wanted to go back to her hometown where she had been away for more than ten years. When I saw my uncle, I was surprised to learn the truth about my grandmother''s death. "


    Zhuo Xi turned around and looked at him with some sadness.


    He nodded. "It has been rumored that the royal family of Yu family has a secret map of treasure. After the five kings divided their countries, they are looking for the secret map of treasure everywhere. Father Wang did not know where to get the news that the secret map was in the hands of his grandmother, so he proposed to his grandmother. At first, my grandmother didn''t know why, so she happily married her mother to her father. However, less than a year after the marriage, the father sent someone to ask his grandmother for the secret map of the treasure. My grandmother refused angrily and later died. My uncle has been tracking down the truth of my grandmother''s death since he became an adult. "


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath. "Is it because my grandmother''s death is related to my father?"


    He said sadly, "after my grandmother died, a mother who had been with her also disappeared. My uncle later found out that the mother was ordered to secretly poison her grandmother and tried to coerce her grandmother to hand over the secret map of the treasure. "


    Zhuo Xi "ah" said, "it''s the Zhao family again?! Is it the father''s order? "


    He shook his head. "The mother killed herself without saying who was behind it. But when the mother Princess knew it, she thought it must have something to do with her father. She fell ill in a rage, so she stayed in Gelao family and refused to return to the palace until... "His eyes left crystal tears," I was young and confident that I could win wansha city easily. Who knows, the war of wansha city will last for half a year. I won''t get the news of the death of Zhimu imperial concubine until I win and return to the Dynasty... "


    Zhuo Xi hugged him and gently kissed the tears from the corners of his eyes. "The mother Princess must know that you are in wansha city. She won''t blame you..."


    He said sadly, "the mother Princess must also be anxious, which exacerbated her condition..."


    Zhuo Xi also felt a pain in her heart, "so when you read the letter left by your mother''s imperial concubine before her death, you actually complain about your father, don''t you? So he spent five years traveling outside... "He was only twelve or thirteen at that time, wasn''t he?


    He closed his eyes and pressed down his grief. "At first, I was very depressed and seriously ill. Mrs. Qing, the Empress Dowager today, took me to her palace to comfort and care every day, and then escaped from the gate of hell. Therefore, the empress mother can be said to have a life-saving grace to me. Later, my father granted me Liangzhou as a fief and made me a general, hoping that the affairs of Liangzhou would cheer me up. I had complained against my father, which aroused my resistance. After moving out of the palace and opening another Hou''s house, he traveled around. This trip is five years. After seeing famous mountains and rivers, I slowly calmed down my resentment. Until the news of his father''s sudden death came. I was surprised that I had become an unfilial son again... "


    Zhuo Xi hugged his head and said softly, "it''s all over. My father, my mother and my concubine have knowledge under the spring. It will be very gratifying to see that you can carry forward don''t cool now. "


    He took another deep breath, "so when I came back, I asked the governor to build the king''s mausoleum in an attempt to alleviate my regret. Who knows that God is so attached to me that he let me meet you in the green mountain... "


    She smiled quietly and remembered the scene of seeing him paralyzed in bed like a dead man for the first time


    "After pursuing the secret map of the treasure for half his life, my father was regarded as a dowry by my grandmother and went to the palace with my mother and concubine. The mother imperial concubine must know that this matter is very important, so she quietly gave half of it to sister mo. The other half has been used in the imperial concubine''s palace. Maybe it was my father who found them that he gave them to me as the relics of his mother''s concubine. In fact, his father''s heart has been regretting... He even said before his death that he would be buried with his mother''s concubine. Also left the imperial edict...... "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered another thing, "talking about the Gu in grandma. You were in zhaojialing that day and said you were led away by a colorful concentric knot. Is it related to my grandmother? "


    "It''s been so long since the Zhao Jialing incident. Do you remember such a small detail? Yes, I''ve seen that colorful concentric knot in Gelao nationality. At that time, I went back to the Gelao family to welcome back the coffin of my mother''s concubine. My uncle showed me this. He said it was found from the mother who poisoned my grandmother. It may be from Zhao Jialing. So when I saw it in zhaojialing, I thought someone who knew the truth about my grandmother''s death came to me, so I went to the meeting place alone. Unexpectedly, this is just a conspiracy between sun Yao and the prince. "


    "How did grandma Yao know about this thing?"


    "Sun Yao is the direct daughter of crown prince Mingzhao of Yu nationality. She is also looking for the treasures of the previous dynasty in order to restore the country. So I found my grandmother. After learning that the cause of her death was different, I also tracked down the missing mother and learned about it. "


    Zhuo Xi felt that she was finally the truth. "No wonder the prince knows so many things about sun Yao. It turned out that at the beginning, they wanted to deal with you together... "


    Jing Yuan buried her head in the nest of her neck, "fortunately, everything has passed... Now is a new year, a new beginning... We will, one for two all our lives..."


    He murmured slowly. As he spoke, his voice became lower and lower.


    For a long time, Zhuo Xi heard his even breathing.


    First, I experienced fear and great joy, then recalled the past, and then felt a great sorrow. I must be very tired, very tired?


    She suddenly felt a stir in her stomach. It turned out that the baby was stretching... She was surprised to put his hand on her stomach and gradually fell asleep

 Chapter 214

    The busy first month passed, the seal of the emperor was opened, and they began another kind of busyness.


    In the blink of an eye, Zhuo Xi had some heavy feelings at this time.


    Her due date is early April, when the grass grows and the warbler flies.


    So she is in a very good mood recently.


    Day after day, I took a walk in the back garden to eat. Day after day, I watched those green leaves slowly pull their teeth and grow, and all kinds of flowers gradually open. She can''t help thinking that some of the things she did after she came to this era, like these flowers, slowly bloom and then slowly bear fruit.


    Xianglan''s feather clothing door, on the original basis and with her financial support, has opened a charity hall for girls in all 26 states of Wuliang, and six of these 26 states have begun to prepare for the opening of Feiyu zuiyuxuan branch. These branches can not only provide the necessary financial resources for yuyimen, provide employment opportunities for school-age girls in Shantang, but also become her intelligence agency.


    The information she collected was never hidden from Jing Yuan. She knew that Jing Yuan must have another intelligence network running everywhere. The main customer of Feiyu zuiyuxuan, which she runs, is a lady who is either rich or expensive. Naturally, sometimes she can get some seemingly imperceptible clues. Whenever she found something different, she would report it to Jingyuan. But in fact, over the past few months, she has asked the feather door to focus on exploring the intelligence, focusing on the condition monitoring and medical supply and circulation around the country, because she has a new and important network to layout.


    Peng''s sister-in-law really came to the palace every three or five times. When she came, she often just sent some embroidered baby belly pockets, shoes and socks, and then talked about family affairs. She didn''t know why at first, because too many people came to her for help. It is rare for Peng to visit without any purpose. Later, she thought that her grandmother cared about her and asked Peng to come to the palace to accompany her from time to time. After asking, she realized that it was her eldest brother who asked her to go to the palace often.


    More times, she tasted a real care from her family. Through Peng''s family, she knew that her grandmother was in good health and asked her about her situation in the palace every day; I also know that Liu is very busy, busy preparing a dowry for Wu Jiao; Knowing that Wu Xing is still devoted to the affairs of the military academy, he still remembers to go home every day; Knowing that Wu Jiao has changed her arrogance, she is learning to be a housekeeper with her mother to prepare for her upcoming marriage to the son of Chang''an Bo; Knowing that Wu Ru''s marriage has been made a small decision, and the wedding date is scheduled for July next year... She is very happy. The Wu family is her nominal mother''s family. Until this time, the head of her mother''s family came into her ears from time to time, she felt a little like a family.


    Sometimes when she was too busy to talk to Peng, Peng would take out her needle and thread and quietly embroider something in the side hall. Until the time came, she suddenly realized that her sister-in-law was still waiting in the side hall under the reminder of the warmth of spring. She hurriedly summoned Peng to come. She just smiled quietly and asked "what''s wrong with your mother", then smiled quietly and said goodbye and came back a few days later.


    Zhuo Xi likes this kind of company very much. When she is free, someone nags. When she is busy, she is busy and does not disturb each other.


    In March, Peng agreed to come and sit for at least half an hour every day. On the one hand, he was concerned about the preparation of wenpo nanny, and on the other hand, he was worried that she would start at any time.


    On March 28, Peng came to visit the palace as usual.


    Just after the Zhaobi, before entering the main hall, Peng asked about the Spring Festival Gala that led her in, "the nanny surnamed Zhou I saw yesterday seems to have a cough. How''s it going today? "


    The Spring Festival Gala replied, "the Shaofu just reported that she found some cold and had been moved to another wing room alone. The mother said, "let her go home when she is well."


    Peng put down his heart, saluted Zhuo Xi and continued, "so now there is only one nanny surnamed sun and nanny surnamed Gu. No, I have to find another nurse to prepare when I go back later. A few days ago, my concubine''s mother said that the Peng family had a daughter-in-law who gave birth to a son before she gave birth to a fat baby with full milk. If it''s appropriate for someone to take her into the palace and show her to her mother, one more person should have more hands? "


    Zhuo Xi would tease her, "why does sister-in-law look like an experienced?"


    Peng''s face turned red and spat at her, "it''s just these things! If I didn''t remind you, wouldn''t my mother be ready? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a bad smile, "but you have to start preparing?"


    The blush on Peng''s face was even worse, "empress! The time for my marriage is still short! "


    "Sometimes there is, but it doesn''t depend on the length of time..."


    "Niang Niang - can''t say more and more boundless......" Peng Shi was very embarrassed.


    "Sister-in-law!" Zhuo Xi lowered her voice and asked, "did you pay more attention to the date between the two monthly events as I told you last time..."


    Peng couldn''t listen any longer and said coyly, "empress - stop talking!"


    Zhuo Xi continued, "this kind of thing also needs the cooperation of her husband. Did you tell your brother? "


    Peng Shi is very embarrassed. How can he tell his sister-in-law about this? But Zhuo Xi was the queen again. She had to answer again, so she had to blush and nod almost invisibly.


    Zhuo Xi said with satisfaction, "brother has become more and more calm since he got married. By the way, did you mention to him that your father asked him to be his son? " What I can remind has been reminded, and the rest can only depend on fate


    Peng Shi shook his head, "the husband said, please seal the son. Since his father didn''t mention it, he must have his own consideration. My husband is already a five life official at a young age. He will have plenty of opportunities to make achievements in the future. He wants to go out and start his own house when the time is ripe. He doesn''t pay much attention to attacking the Lord... "


    I''m afraid he doesn''t want to rely on his sister''s relationship to get the pie from the sky? But now that the Wu family has tied themselves to the big ship of prosperity, how can he completely forget his relationship? However, everyone has everyone''s pursuit, and she really can''t interfere too much in other people''s lives.


    Just thinking, I suddenly felt a pain in my abdomen.


    She leaned sharply against the back of the chair, and Bei''s teeth bit her lower lip.


    Peng was startled and hurriedly leaned forward and asked nervously, "madam, but it happened?"


    A moment later, Zhuo Xi exhaled, "it''s possible. But it doesn''t seem to hurt anymore. "


    Peng became nervous and hurriedly called several palace maids to serve closely, such as the Spring Festival Gala and Chunqing. Several people were trained early. Hearing that the mother had an attack, they hurriedly performed their duties and did what they should do.


    Speechless heard the news, he quickly ordered someone to carry the soft sedan chair in, and carried the queen to the delivery room prepared in the West Wing room. He also ordered people to report to Zichen palace.


    Zhuo Xi listened, but easily shouted to him, "wait, don''t miss the king''s political affairs."


    Speechless, seeing that there was no pain on her face, she had to step back.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t want to lie in bed, so she got up and walked around the house again. Peng Shi was very frightened. "Madam, go to bed and have a rest."


    Zhuo Xi said to her suspiciously, "now it doesn''t hurt. Is there a mistake?"


    "Madam, I''d rather believe it or not. You''d better lie down and rest. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately stroked her stomach and frowned, "it hurts again."


    Peng quickly helped her to the bed and sat down.


    Zhuo Xi calmly shouted chunnuan, "go and send someone to Wu''s house to report. Invite mother into the palace. If she doesn''t want to stay in the delivery room, she can stay in the East Second room. Go and report to the Empress Dowager again and ask her not to worry. " She thought about it and said, "go to Xiyan Yangsheng hall again and ask Dr. Hong to come over."


    Peng knew that Zhuo Xi was not close to the head mother of the Wu family, so he invited Liu to stay in the palace for the sake of the face of the Wu family. Although the queen doesn''t mention it these days, she also knows that the Queen''s mother doesn''t often go to the palace on weekdays, but if she doesn''t accompany outside the delivery room during childbirth, it will inevitably lead the Wu family into impeachment by the supreme historian.


    But after a while, Jing Yuan strode in.


    Chunnuan''s face was embarrassed, "madam, I can''t stop the king..."


    Zhuo Xi stood up. "Why are you here? Didn''t I ask wordless to tell you later? Have you finished your work in the political hall? "


    Jing Yuan waved, and Peng and chunnuan quickly withdrew.


    "Naturally, I let the five rivers leave a ear to tell the gods. Since I know that you have an attack, where can I sit in the palace of politics?"


    Zhuo Xi turned twice in front of him, "you see, it''s still early. I''m just going to feel some pain. It doesn''t hurt now. You''d better wait outside. I''m not in a hurry. You can handle government affairs as much as possible. Sometimes it takes a day and a night for this woman to give birth, and sometimes it takes two days and a night... Maybe you''re worth it tomorrow, and I haven''t given birth yet! "


    Jing Yuan clenched her hand and asked her to sit by the bed. "Will it hurt so long?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "yes. Women''s production is the same all over the world. "


    Jing Yuan hugged her and said, "well, now there is neither blood nor pain. Let me sit with you for a while..."


    She pushed him, "they say the delivery room is dirty, and you don''t avoid it. You go out! Tomorrow those Taishiling will talk again... "


    "Who loves to say, who says! It''s only natural that my husband wants to accompany her to give birth! "


    She froze and couldn''t help taking a hissing breath.


    He hurriedly helped her lie down. "Is it painful again?"


    She nodded. "Let wenpo and the Spring Festival Gala come in. Get out! "


    "I''ll stay with you for a while! What would you like to eat? " He called the Spring Festival Gala and asked her to send some easy to eat food.


    Zhuo Xi smiled for a while, "you are afraid to be the first and perhaps the only king in the delivery room!"


    Jing Yuan lay down beside her and held her sideways. "Do you like it?"


    She smiled and nodded, "naturally I like it!"


    He put his hand on her stomach and gently rubbed it. "Son, you should come out earlier! Don''t let your mother suffer too much. "


    "I finally saw you tell the truth?! But who can guarantee it''s a son? What if it''s a daughter? " Zhuo Xi smiled.


    He immediately changed his mouth and said to his stomach, "daughter, don''t be too naughty. Come out quickly. Do you know that you are very painful... "

 Chapter 215

    "How can having a child be painless? It is said that women give birth, just like walking in front of the gate of death. " She laughed at him.


    He asked nervously, "are all the doctors here? Are you in danger? "


    Zhuo Xi thought of one thing, "by the way, there''s one thing I want to discuss with you in advance."


    He immediately interrupted her, "don''t discuss it. I won''t promise."


    "I haven''t..." she endured a pain and said with a smile, "you know what it is before I say it?"


    He said calmly, "that''s nature. You must say that in case of... In case of... You have to protect your children, don''t you? "


    She smiled and said, "I''ve been pregnant with him for ten months. Naturally, I don''t want to lose in the end. Of course, the baby is more important! "


    He flatly refused, "no, in my eyes, you are more important than the faceless baby. In any case, I won''t give up on you. "


    "You are the king of a country. Do you know how many people in the world are staring at you and whether there are descendants?" Zhuo Xi was very moved.


    "Blood can be there again, but you have only one!"


    With a long sigh, she took his hand and solemnly said to him, "what I want to tell you is not this one. In my heart, although the baby is more important than me. But if there is a foolproof way to keep our mother and son alive, won''t you object? "


    He was delighted, "do you have a foolproof way?"


    She nodded. "I once learned a method in my school to treat dystocia pregnant women. But the method is a bit shocking. I hope you will believe us then. "


    "You? Who else? "


    She said, "Dr. Hong Quan. I once taught him this method. In this world, except me, only he knows this method. I''ve sent someone to invite him over. If anything happens, please believe him and me. Leave everything to him. "


    He was silent for a long time. "What would happen if he did it?"


    Zhuo Xi thought for a long time and decided to tell the truth, "he will cut open my stomach, take out the baby, and then sew my stomach with a needle and thread."


    He took a breath. "What are you talking about?"


    She comforted him, "don''t worry. This method is in my hometown. There are countless people alive... "Then she told Jing Yuan about her rescue of Ke min, taught Hong Quan about caesarean section during her time, and he also successfully implemented two cases of dystocia caesarean section.


    Jing Yuan was stunned when he heard this... He was greatly amazed, "even taking a son by caesarean section can save people''s lives... It''s appalling..."


    She said with a relaxed look, "what''s the matter. In my school, this is only a very common operation. There are also operations that can open the skull, change the heart, open the chest and place a stent pacemaker in the heart... These are all ways to treat patients and save people. "


    He sighed, "it''s really suspicious. However, I have a request. If Hong Quan wants to perform this laparotomy, I will watch. "


    She was shocked and strongly opposed, "that won''t work! You are the king of a great country. People tremble when they see you at ordinary times. This operation is a critical moment. If you make a movement and make Dr. Hong shake his hand, I will lose my life! "


    He was silent for a moment and nodded, "well, I promise you... But you must be fine... If..."


    She breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing that he was more nervous than her, she comforted, "don''t worry. That''s just the worst case. I think I should be able to give birth naturally. You see, I have to take 3000 steps every day. I exercise enough. The baby is not big and has the potential to drill out by himself... "


    Chunnuan knocked on the door outside, "the king, the queen, the maidservant brought red dates and pig liver soup in."


    Jing Yuan sat up and said, "come in."


    Spring brings food plates. Jing Yuan picked up the jade bowl and spoon and said, "go down. Leave it to the widow. "


    Chunnuan looked at Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi also sat up against the back of the bed and nodded to her, "go out first. The palace will call you when it can''t help it. "


    It''s warm in spring.


    Jing Yuan fed her soup spoonful by spoonful.


    They talked for a long time. The Spring Festival Gala reported that Mrs. Wu Liu arrived, and Zhuo Xi persuaded him out.


    Liu and Peng came in together, asked her some information, and learned that everything was ready, so they told her to close her eyes and sleep for a while. They were in the room with her.


    Zhuo Xi saw Liu''s uneasy face and was not forced. She said a few words of thanks and asked someone to take her to the East Wing room to have a rest.


    Peng sat with her for a while. She seemed to be asleep with her eyes closed. Then she went outside to see the preparation.


    Zhuo Xi was always awakened by pain when she was about to fall asleep. When she was awakened by pain for the third time, she found that Jing Yuan didn''t know when to come again. He ate something with her again. After all this trouble, it was already five o''clock.


    The Empress Dowager also sent someone to ask several times.


    They talked for a while. Suddenly, Zhuo Xi felt a warm and moist feeling in her lower body. She was stunned. She quickly shouted wenpo and asked Jing Yuan to go out quickly.


    Although he always said he wanted to accompany the birth, she always felt that she didn''t have the courage to let her husband look at her most embarrassing and painful moment, and decided to refuse.


    Wenpo hurriedly came in and said that her amniotic fluid was broken.


    Jing Yuan finally went out and waited under the strong push of several people waiting for the Spring Festival Gala.


    Mrs. Qin also came at the news and told the preparation of relevant matters in the kitchen.


    He waited for seven hours. It was not until midnight the next day that a loud baby cry was heard inside.


    With a sigh of relief, he lifted the curtain and broke in.


    Wenpo came over happily holding the baby and saluted him with a happy face, "congratulations to the king, the queen and the empress on the prince!"


    Mrs. Qin was also happy. She led all the palace people in the yard to kneel down and said, "congratulations to the king and the queen!"


    Jing Yuan nodded and said, "reward!" He turned and walked towards Zhuo Xi on the bed.


    Wenpo held the baby and was stunned on the spot. Shouldn''t the king come to see the newborn Prince first?


    Liu hurriedly urged wenpo, "come on, hold the child and wash..."


    But Peng stopped in front of the king and said in a low voice, "the queen has just given birth. She wants to change her bedding. Please wait a moment."


    He nodded and had to turn his back.


    There was a strong smell of blood in the delivery room.


    Several people in the Spring Festival Gala quickly changed their bedding and withdrew. Peng also tucked in the quilt horn for Zhuo Xi and went out.


    Jing Yuan hurried to the bed. Zhuo Xi was pale, her eyes were closed, her wet hair on her forehead was close to her scalp, and her lips had some bite marks. He sat by the bed, holding her weak hand.


    Zhuo Xi felt vaguely that someone was sitting aside. When she opened her eyes, she saw Jing Yuan looking at herself in pain and struggling, "Why are you here? Have you seen the baby? "


    He was stunned. Then he remembered that he didn''t seem to have seen the child at all... He reacted quickly and said quickly, "wenpo took the child to clean. I see Peng is still a caretaker. Let''s keep her for a few days. "


    Zhuo Xi shook her head, "my sister-in-law has worked hard these two days. It''s still not too late to let her go back and raise her spirit. Also, since I have delivered safely and naturally, those imperial doctors and Dr. Hong Quan can let them go back first... "


    "You are the hardest. How can you worry about these people! Go to sleep for a while. I have everything... "


    Zhuo Xi gave a "um" sound, closed her eyes and fell asleep.


    The next day, when Zhuo Xi woke up from his deep sleep, he saw a familiar figure shaking gently with a swaddling clothes. She half sat up and found that she had been moved to the confinement room next door. She whispered "sister-in-law."


    Peng turned and cried in surprise, "queen, are you awake?"


    She then shouted out, "in the Spring Festival Gala, my mother wakes up. Get some food and drink."


    Chunnuan whispered happily and went out.


    Peng happily held the child and put it in front of her. "You see, Prince Yu''s eyebrows look like you... Smile when you see people. This character must follow you!"


    "Prince Yu?" Zhuo Xi took the child and murmured. Before she and Jing Yuan racked their brains for the name, they were not very satisfied. During her sleepy time, has he determined the word "Yu"?


    Peng smiled, "yes, yesterday the king came and gave Yu the name of the prince. He also said... "Peng deliberately sold a pass. Seeing Zhuo Xi''s weak smile, he hurriedly said," the king also said that if you are not satisfied with the name, you can change it back in the future. "


    She burst out laughing. The name has been changed. Who is dissatisfied with it and will change it in the future? He doesn''t want to hurt himself, does he?


    She asked again, "has the baby eaten yet? Which nurse is feeding? "


    Peng smiled, "the baby has eaten. It''s the nanny surnamed sun who is feeding. In addition, mother Su also came and taught several close maids of Ning''an palace how to dress and change diapers for their children. Don''t worry! We have everything! "


    Zhuo Xi fondled the baby''s sleeping face and said, "sister-in-law, have you been here all the time? Didn''t the palace let you go back and have a rest first? "


    "Oh, my good sister, who can sleep on such a big wedding? Mother was also very happy and had gone back to report the good news to the old lady. I''m afraid my family is busy these two days. I have such a good excuse to be lazy in Ning''an palace. Do you want to rush me back? "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a while. Sure enough, he was a man in one fell swoop. His mother''s family was afraid to receive an endless stream of visitors. My sister-in-law said she was lazy. In fact, she didn''t mainly take care of herself? She said rather sheepishly, "look what you said. I''m afraid you''ve been tired for days. I''ll be distressed if I know! "


    Peng''s face flashed a trace of gloom, but he immediately asked with a smile, "my mother is thirsty. Do you want to drink some water?"


    "Zhuo Xi asked," what''s wrong? Brother, what happened? "


    Peng lowered his head and replied, "no, my husband didn''t have an accident."


    "Sister-in-law, don''t hide it from me. But what do you want to do? "


    Peng bit his lower lip and his eyes were red. "Yesterday, my husband asked the king for orders to go north to meet general Dingyuan and conquer datan together..."

 Chapter 216

    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "but there''s something moving in the north?"


    Peng shook his head, "I don''t know. My mother needs someone to take care of her. I''d better stay in the palace for a few more days! "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly understood that her sister-in-law was going to go back to the house to rest yesterday. When she heard that her eldest brother was going to fight, she became small-minded and didn''t want to go back to face her eldest brother, did she? She sighed and enlightened her, "brother was born in the army and wanted to fight on the battlefield and make contributions. Now we have a strong army and new weapons. My brother must have been itching for a long time because he has learned those new volumes of war books... Don''t worry. My brother wants to work hard in the military. Isn''t he trying to seal his wife and children? Nowadays, Kyoto is mostly a loser. How many people like big brother want to make achievements? You should give him strong support. You don''t have to leave some unpleasant memories in the days he''s leaving... What do you want to give up? "


    Peng''s face turned red. "Who can''t bear him? I just want to see that the sword and arrow have no eyes, just in case... "


    "Oh -" Zhuo Xi lengthened her tone, "it''s not reluctant, it''s worry... Let alone worry. You haven''t heard that Zisang won this time with the help of magic guns. There were few deaths and injuries. The soldiers were so stiff that they almost didn''t make much effort. Often, after a heavy bombardment, the soldiers directly come forward to harvest their heads so that they can come back and get their heads and money... "


    The more she said, the paler Peng''s face became, so she stopped saying, "so, brother has a martial art and knows how to use the army. There are magic guns in front of the road and soldiers in the back. There will be no danger. It''s said that it''s cold in the north. If the soldiers don''t bring enough cotton clothes to change, I''m afraid they are vulnerable to cold... "


    Peng couldn''t sit still and asked anxiously, "is it really so cold? Now it''s April, and you have to wear cotton padded clothes in the north? "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "naturally. It''s getting colder and colder in the north. I heard it''s still snowing in some places! "


    Peng stood up and looked at her eagerly.


    Zhuo Xi understood, smiled and nodded, "thanks to my sister-in-law here these days. You''ve worked hard enough. You''d better go back and have a rest. If the day for the eldest brother to leave is set, please ask him to come to the palace and meet with the palace before he leaves. The palace has something to charge him. "


    Peng gratefully blessed her, "so, madam, take care of your health. When I settle down at home, I go to the palace every day to serve my mother. "


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand. "We are family members. We can''t say we can serve. Just come to the palace and talk with me when you have time."


    Chunnuan came in with a bowl of bird''s nest porridge. Peng backed out.


    Zhuo Xi took two bites and asked, "Why are you doing these little things again?"


    Chunnuan said with a smile, "maidservant or maidservant. Sister Peng looked at the little prince these two days. The maidservant had to pick up some easy work to do! Now she''s gone, and the maid is just taking care of the little prince. " Having said that, she leaned over and looked at Jing Yu, who was asleep¡° It''s so cute... Look at his small mouth. It seems that he is still eating in his dream... "


    Zhuo Xi immediately thought of breastfeeding, felt it for a while, and quickly ordered, "spring is warm, let people stew more milk stimulating soup."


    Chunnuan looked at her strangely, "nanny has been drinking..."


    "It''s for the palace to drink. If it''s ready, bring a bowl in first."


    Chunnuan was even more strange, and he couldn''t speak easily. "Don''t you, madam, feed the little prince yourself? Aren''t there two nursing mothers? The little prince is sure to be full. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "you don''t understand. Maternal colostrum is the most nutritious. The baby can drink it for six months without getting sick. Although the suckling mother has breast milk, she is not colostrum. At present, only this palace has it. "


    Chunnuan widened his eyes, "don''t you get sick in six months?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "colostrum is rich in antibodies, which can enhance the baby''s immunity..." she suddenly knocked chunnuan''s head, "you have to study hard about the course of pregnancy and childbirth knowledge in Xiyan Yangsheng hall!"


    Chunnuan quickly jumped up and walked out, "slaves don''t marry. What pregnancy and childbirth knowledge do you learn! I''d better take the milk soup for you... "


    When Jing Yuan came in, he saw Zhuo Xi holding the baby in his arms and turning his back to him. He didn''t know what he was tossing about


    He went up and saw her half open and stuffed * * into the baby''s mouth.


    He asked in surprise, "what is this doing?"


    Zhuo Xi turned back and answered, "I''m milking..."


    He stuck it up and made her feel more comfortable in his arms. "Isn''t there a wet nurse? Why feed yourself? "


    "The nurse''s milk is not as good as her own." She explained the colostrum knowledge again, and then put down the baby decadent, "still not."


    The baby was tossed for a long time and didn''t eat the expected dinner. He was so wronged that he cried loudly.


    Jing Yuan hurriedly shouted "someone", and mother sun ran in at a small step and took the baby out to feed.


    Zhuo Xi asked Wu Xing, "when are you ready to go north?"


    He said, "over the verdant mountain, fifty magic guns have been built in recent months. Zou Tan and Ju Shao are ready to disperse them to the border. Now I have three seals of the son of heaven in my hands, and the remaining three seals must be able to gather together soon. Wu Xing was bent on the Northern Expedition and was dragged down by the college before. Now, the college has begun to take shape and begin to operate normally. He can''t stay any longer. I was afraid you shouldn''t worry about having a child before, so I held back. Yesterday I heard that you gave birth to lin''er successfully, so I immediately asked for my orders. I just want to send someone to escort the twenty magic guns north. The war on the border between datan and Wuliang has dragged on for too long. It''s time to end it. "


    With the magic gun, it''s really domineering. If you want to end the war, end the war


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. "Do you just believe him? Not only him, but also Bai Zhong of Zisang... He is in charge of 80000 sergeants and more than a dozen cannons! "


    He said confidently, "don''t doubt people, don''t doubt people! They are already extreme ministers. Are they at most rebellious? But they rebelled, and they promised to succeed? Guarantee more power and status than today? "


    "It is said that the emperor is the most suspicious. How do I feel that you are a king who lacks heart and eyes?"


    "I don''t have to be careful. I just have to put my heart on you." He approached her ear and whispered, "don''t you see that your chest is wet?"


    Zhuo Xi looked down and exclaimed.


    Jing Yuan buried his head in it, and Zhuo Xi pushed him vigorously, "no, no! That''s your son''s rations! "


    He burst into laughter.


    The Spring Festival Gala came in and reported, "the Empress Dowager is coming."


    Jing Yuan hurried out, but the Empress Dowager had come in.


    Zhuo Xi had no time to change his clothes, so he had to take a coat and put it on him. He wanted to get up and salute. The Empress Dowager quickly stopped, "don''t be polite. Do you feel better? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "thank you for your care. I''ve had a big sleep and I''m much better. I''ve just used some more food and my appetite is better. "


    The Empress Dowager looked at her with a smile, "your mother and son are safe, and you can rest assured."


    Jing Yuan has asked the nurse to hold Prince Yu who has had enough to eat and drink.


    The Empress Dowager held Prince Yu in her arms and smiled happily, but her eyes gradually became wet. "Now that you have yu''er, the mourning family has finally explained to your mother imperial concubine under the nine springs..."


    Zhuo Xi''s aura flashed, as if something had flashed in his mind.


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "empress mother, you can''t explain it so easily. In the future, yu''er''s full moon banquet, hundred day banquet, annual gift... And then he will get married and have children... Far from it, just say the three banquets tomorrow. Do you still want to be the shopkeeper? "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "don''t worry. I''m happy to work for my grandchildren!" She turned to Zhuo Xi and said, "Xi''er, you can rest assured to take good care of yourself! Tomorrow''s baptism is well prepared! "


    Zhuo Xi quickly thanked, "if there''s a mother coming out, how can I be worried? Tomorrow, I will finally have a taste of the shopkeeper! "


    Several people laughed.


    Chunqing came in and reported, "Wu Zhang asked for a meeting."


    She is now in confinement. Basically, major and minor events have been handed over to chunnuan to deal with as usual. Those who are uncertain will also ask the Empress Dowager for instructions. Wu Zhang suddenly asked to see him, but he didn''t know anything.


    Zhuo Xi glanced at Jing Yuan. He didn''t know why.


    Wu Zhangshi was the Wu mother of the original Hou house. After Zhuo Xi entered the palace, she took charge of the clothing bureau.


    The Empress Dowager looked at Zhuo Xi and said, "I''m afraid I have something to ask you for permission." Worried that Zhuo Xi wouldn''t agree, she chose to come when she and the king were both there.


    Zhuo Xi ordered, "please come in."


    Wu Zhangshi came in and gave the three a big gift. Then he glanced at the swaddling clothes in the Empress Dowager''s arms with his eyes, and said, "empress dowager, the king, the Queen''s mother, slaves and maidservants congratulate the Lord''s son on getting lin''er!"


    "Mother Wu doesn''t have to be polite. What''s important when you come here?"


    Wu Zhangshi smiled and said, "old slave, please resign as head of Shangyi Bureau."


    Zhuo Xi''s face changed greatly. "Why did Wu Zhang say so? But someone in the fashion bureau is not under control? "


    Wu Zhang quickly explained his intention and said, "don''t worry, madam, it''s not true. It''s an old slave. The old slave wants to ask for a grace to let the old slave serve Prince Yu. The old slave has served Princess Xianru since she was a child, and has always told her last words to take good care of the marquis. In the future, if the Marquis has children, he will watch the children grow up for her... The old slave learned yesterday that the queen had worked hard to give birth to Wang Ziyu, so he immediately burned incense to Princess Xianru and told her to ask her to bless our prince Yu to grow up. "


    The Empress Dowager sighed, "just now I''m still talking about mourning for my family. I can finally explain to Princess Xianru. It can be seen that you are more considerate... "

 Chapter 217

    Jing Yuan didn''t say anything, but said in a warm voice, "Mom Wu, you''d better get up quickly. I just don''t know if yu''er''s close mother has arranged a candidate? " The latter sentence he asked Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it was my sister-in-law who helped look after the children yesterday. Today she returned to the house. The palace is worried that there is no one to take care of! If mother Wu doesn''t feel too hard, she has to bother you to watch brother Yu for us. " She was shocked by mother Wu''s last sentence "grow up well". She knows what the elders expect of the newborn in this era. The items that the children prepare for the week either want him to be a general or a champion. She wishes Wentao was good at everything. Only those who really care about children will make such a simple wish - to grow up well.


    Mother Wu was overjoyed and thanked her again and again. She was afraid that the queen would not agree, so she specially chose a time when both the Empress Dowager and the king were there to ask. Unexpectedly, she tunneled her wish so easily.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "Mom Wu, get up quickly! You are not an outsider. You have this intention. You should have come to our palace earlier. Until just now, the palace was still worried that there was no suitable person to take care of brother Yu! "


    Mother Wu hurriedly got up, saluted and said, "the old slave is very happy. I''m going to clean up now and take care of brother Yu! Keep him fat! "


    Wu Xing''s expedition was scheduled for the sixth day of April. After all, Peng was not willing to be angry with him in the last few days. He carefully prepared clothes and herbs for him to go north, and treated him more gently. She always remembered what the queen said to her that day. Her husband went to make achievements and meritorious achievements. She should support him. She didn''t have to leave unpleasant memories for them


    Wu Xing finally accompanied Peng''s family into the palace on the fifth day of April to meet the queen.


    Zhuo Xi understood his mind, but still couldn''t help asking him some precautions on the battlefield, especially how to treat his companions accidentally injured by shells


    However, he cited the four military books he had discussed with those veteran generals in the military academy a few days ago. He looked eager to try


    Finally, looking at the figure of his complacent departure, she finally couldn''t help sighing. Because she knew that in the near future, he would find that under the overwhelming force of divine artillery, the hundreds of military books he devoted himself to studying would be useless... He spoke with strength on the battlefield.


    Sure enough, three months later, at Jing Yu''s hundred day banquet, Jing Yuan got the good news sent by 800 Li, saying that Ruihe, the capital of datan, had been taken down. General Wang Feng, the commander-in-chief of Dingyuan, comprehensively handled the military affairs of the former datan. The deputy commander changed his administration. Wu Xing closed a riding Duwei in the Central Plains of the army. After the army entered the city of Ruihe, he easily won the position of a grammar official.


    After the good news came, Jing Yuan immediately told the whole country and told the world not to start with the three seals of the son of heaven, that is, change the country''s name to Daliang country and call it emperor yuan.


    Cancel the establishment of princes and kings, and keep the other titles unchanged.


    The people in the harem also changed their titles. The queen mother is the queen mother and the queen is the queen. Mrs. Tai is a princess. The great prince Yu is called the great prince Yu.


    In July, Jing Hua was ordered to return to Kyoto from Junyao city to attend Jing Yu''s 100 day banquet. After the first month, he went back to Junyao city to deal with the mountains of government affairs. Fortunately, most of the government and military systems of the original Zisang counties have been straightened out, and the government affairs of Junyao city have also been greatly reduced.


    After the hundred day banquet, he was ordered to go to Peng''s house in Yizhou to greet his relatives. He went to Yizhou with extreme grief and anger, so on July 13, he specially picked a day on the eve of Ghost Festival and set out to meet his relatives.


    From Kyoto to Yizhou, the carriage takes seven days.


    Today is the eleventh day of their departure.


    From the first day of departure, Jing Hua tried her best to delay time. Not only did he stagger and abandon his horse and hide in the carriage, but also he always moaned in the carriage from time to time, which makes people wonder whether fragrant stories are happening in the carriage.


    Zhou Qing was very strange about this, so he immediately asked. Several times before, Jing Hua only said that she was uncomfortable and asked the carriage to walk slower and slower.


    Zhou Qing asked again, "how does the Marquis feel?" after asking many questions, Jing Hua replied angrily, "is it OK if the Marquis has a relapse?"


    He had to keep silent, and the others were even more afraid to speak, so they had to drag their feet forward slowly.


    Go, stop, stop, go, go, go, go for eleven days.


    At the moment, Jing Hua is not on the official route from Kyoto to Yizhou, but around Ronghai Town, a small border town in the west of Yizhou.


    There are garrisons of the Western army stationed there. Jing Hua''s second cousin and Prince of Pingxi are in charge of the Western army.


    Jing Hua now lies on the big bed with soft wool in Jing''s tent and howls very comfortably, "the turbulence of these more than ten days is going to kill me - you''re still comfortable here. Let me stay a few more days?"


    Jing Yun just sat behind the big case and looked at the book. He was too lazy to answer. He only "hummed" a syllable from his nostrils.


    "Cousin Yu, anyway, I have to prepare a warm fragrant nephrite for me to visit you from thousands of miles to this place where birds don''t shit!"


    Jing Yu said coldly, "are you sure you came to meet the wedding instead of running away from marriage?"


    "Who says I''m here to greet the bride?! I came out for a trip! In the past ten days, I have traveled all over the six western states. The scenery along the way is infinite and the customs are different. Along the way, I really opened my eyes. Wonderful, that''s wonderful! "


    "Is this your first visit to the six western states?"


    Jing Hua broke down and said, "second brother, my second cousin! It''s because I''m not here for the first time, so I bypass Yizhou to eat sand where you don''t shit! "


    "What on earth is there in Yizhou that has a deep grudge against you? Don''t you even want the bride? "


    Jing Hua sighed sadly, "there is no bitter hatred. In the past, when I passed Yizhou, I listened and looked at other people''s jokes. Now, I have become a leading role in the jokes. What do you think I should look like to enter Yizhou? Didn''t you grow up listening to those nursery rhymes? Which of the people in Yizhou doesn''t know that "Liu Yizhou has lost his money and power."; Wu Yuanbo, if you want to pick up the leak, you are thin and cold. " He deliberately lengthened the ending, "it''s cold -"


    "Oh, so you don''t hate, you''re afraid?" Jing gave him a cold look.


    Jing Hua turned over lazily, "don''t use any provocation to me. Anyway, I don''t care. I''ll depend on you!"


    "If you want to stay with me, it''s OK, but..." Jing Yun stood up and suddenly asked condescending, "you have to tell me what that magic gun is like?"


    Jing Hua immediately sat up from the wool mat and whispered, "come with your ears ~"


    Jing Yu hesitated for a moment and walked steadily to the bed.


    Jing Hua sat up half, pressed his ear and shouted, "I won''t tell you!"


    Jing Fu tilted back to avoid Jing Hua''s roar, took out his ears and said slowly, "I was going to invite you to eat roast whole sheep tonight. Now it seems that it can be saved..."


    Jing Hua immediately jumped up from the bed, "that''s OK! I came all the way here and slept in the open air. I didn''t have a good meal at all. Do you think I''m thin? Are you thin? That''s it. Why do you mean to cut off my roast whole sheep? "


    Jing Yun had heard a smile on his face. When he heard it, he looked at him carefully up and down and sighed, "OK, OK, let''s not talk about the divine gun first. You can always tell me what happened to the dream bug, right? When cousin yuan wrote to me, I really sweated for you... Fortunately, cousin Leng also counts... Some value... Also, the death of king an is really with cousin Leng... "


    Jing Hua''s playful heart was also immersed. Back in those shocking days, she was handling government affairs in Liangzhou and suddenly received a letter from her sixth uncle. It was like a thunderbolt that swept her soul... Then she felt like a walking corpse... Until one day she suddenly woke up and found herself in Huayang palace... Then her aunt came to visit her every day, He enlightened himself again... Then he was excited by Mingxiao mountain and aroused his ambition... Then he was sent by Zisang marching and treasure secret transportation


    He came slowly. As he spoke, he carefully looked at Jing Yu''s look. Of course, he didn''t elaborate on the treasure, but under the guise of being known all over the world, he said he found it in the suburb of Junyao city


    Jing Ji sighed, and his face was sad and happy. When he heard the power of the divine gun when Zisang died, his eyes lit up, but he stubbornly held back and didn''t ask.


    Finally, he asked pitifully, "second cousin, I really have a lot of fate... Fang escaped from the ghost gate, but hurried to get the ducks on the shelf and was sent to the battlefield; It was easy to win the war and win a marquis. He thought he could finally be free for a few days, but he was entangled by the heavy affairs in Junyao city and couldn''t sleep at night; When I met a strange woman in Kyoto, I was quietly moved to think that my Millennium iron tree had finally blossomed. It happened that my real mother ordered this ridiculous marriage for me... Second cousin, how can you have the heart to cancel my roast whole sheep? "


    After listening for a long time, Jing Leng finally sighed, "I finally understand that you''re not here to escape marriage or avoid disaster. You''re here to show off! You were standing under the dangerous wall of seizing your legitimate rights in Kyoto. You used it wisely, so that the wise emperor and empress were hit by your bitter meat plan... "


    Jing Hua stretched out one hand and trembled and pointed to him. The other hand caressed his chest and said bitterly, "you, you, you are so bloody..."


    Jing Yu smiled indifferently, "is Feng Ao, the former counsellor of Po Prefecture, your poisonous hand in the dark?"

 Chapter 218

    Jing Hua''s face was heavy, and she didn''t look like she was playing just now.


    Jing Yun continued, "Feng Ao, Feng Zhao''s husband, said that he met bandits and died when he returned to Beijing to report on his work the year before last. The year before last, you happened to be recalled by King an to the tax money of the inspector in Kyoto... I''m afraid you found that sun Yao was linked with cousin Leng at that time, and Feng Zhao was the one who provided Gu insects for sun Yao, right? But I am very strange. Since you have found out that Feng Zhao did it, why not just kill Feng Zhao and never suffer from it? "


    Jing Hua touched her nose, thought for a moment, and finally said, "in fact, I only knew that Feng Zhao had a plot, but I didn''t know why. Kuang Gu poison is strange and treacherous. Killing her will cause any bad consequences. So I didn''t do it to her. Although I know that sun Yao''s goal has always been the sixth uncle, so I have reminded the sixth uncle, but I don''t know that they should do something to their aunt... "


    "So half of the reason you went to Liangzhou that day was to seek an antidote?"


    Jing Hua smiled bitterly, "yes, aunt Gu poison hurt uncle Liu that day. Uncle Liu was annoyed that I left a disaster. I went to find the Feng Zhao family, and I knew that the Feng Zhao family had gone to zhaojialing, so I had to go to zhaojialing to find an antidote. Unexpectedly, Prince Leng and queen sun played such a big game of chess in zhaojialing. Fortunately, the sixth uncle and aunt were safe in the end... "


    "When did you... Be bewitched by dreams?"


    "In fact, I don''t know. When Feng Zhao died, I vaguely felt that my heart jumped, so I intuitively felt that I was also recruited... Later, I heard that the prince''s dream Gu attack, and I suddenly lost my mind..."


    Jing Yu sighed, "it is said that people in the heavenly family are born with wealth and wealth. Who can know the pain? Your bet is really too big... Wouldn''t you be in danger if your cousin is not the same dream bug as yours and someone happens to know how to solve it? "


    "No one could have expected that my father died in such a way. In fact, I once suspected that queen sun planted the dream insects on me and crown prince Leng at the instigation of her father... If it hadn''t happened suddenly, who would have expected the end of the family''s flesh and blood this day? " He smiled wistfully and patted Jingyu on the shoulder. "Speaking of it, it''s you side branches. Although it''s hard to garrison the frontier, they are the most carefree and safest... And they can make military achievements and seal their wives and children. They are much better than us!"


    "It''s nice of you that others are fighting to earn military merit. The pie falling from the sky must be said to catch up with the ducks. I''m not satisfied with all the seals! What? If God wants you to marry a suitable daughter-in-law again, your family and state affairs will be all right, won''t you take all of them? And said, "I''m not here to show off?"


    "It''s only when Hou is sealed that he is distressed! Give me the whole notorious wife family. Although I don''t expect my wife family to do anything in the future, at least don''t let me become the talk capital of his population! Besides, where can I earn military merit? You are far away from the emperor. You sit and watch the quicksand scenery day and day, and look up at the desert stars night and night. You have no struggle and no life and death. Isn''t it happy? "


    Jing Yun laughed, "if you come here and eat sand every day, try it! Don''t say I went all the way to meet the bride... I married a woman I didn''t know with my eyes closed before I was a marriage letter. I''ve almost forgotten what my wife looks like... Besides, it''s a long journey from Yizhou to Kyoto and Junyao city. If you really don''t want to marry this daughter-in-law, why can''t you move? Do you have to come to me to complain? Don''t pretend. Pack up your bags and get out of here. Welcome your fiancee to Kyoto City to get married early! What''s the glory! "


    Jing Hua lay back on the soft bed, "forget it, let me sleep first and then reason with you..."


    "Which is unreasonable? Make it clear, hey! Hey! Don''t roast the whole sheep? "


    He immediately sat up, "if there is a roast whole sheep, I won''t reason with you! It doesn''t make sense! "


    £¥¡­¡­£À£¦£¥


    The next day, Jing Hua stretched out and got out of the commander''s camp.


    The soldiers on duty stared round. I don''t know what role the young man suddenly came yesterday. The marshal never let people enter the camp. He actually let the young man stay here?


    Jing Hua made a gesture and didn''t know from which corner Zhou Qing jumped out, "Sir, are we going to Yizhou city today?"


    He looked at Zhou Qing like an idiot. "There is no clear water to drink in that remote place, let alone delicious food! What are you doing in Yizhou city? Do you have anything to eat? Get me some breakfast! "


    Zhou Qing led him to breakfast with a bitter face.


    After breakfast, Jing Hua also went around the dozens of carriages parked behind to see the bride price he brought and shouted that he must watch hard and maybe take it back with him.


    The logistics team leader was a little black man. When he heard the speech, he immediately gave a military salute and patted his chest to ensure that there would be no less hair.


    Jing Hua punched him and said, can there be hair in Grandpa''s box?


    Later, Jing Hua and Zhou Qing wandered in the desert outside the border city from morning to morning.


    The next day, they still found a higher dune. Jing Hua specially brought Zhu Sha ink this time, and asked Zhou Qing to step on the sand in the far away sand pile to draw an ink painting of "the sunset is setting and the heartbroken man is at the end of the world".


    On the third day, he found a red brown seed in a Gobi, followed it for a day, and found its nest hidden among the gravel


    On the fourth day, he asked the soldiers about the location of the nearest oasis near here, took clothes and took a thorough bath all day


    The fifth day


    Zhou Qing was so anxious that he saw that it was almost August, and the master''s business had not been forgotten... Especially when he said that the bride price might be transported back to Kyoto as it is, he was always in a state of anxiety. Like the bright sun in the daytime, he roasted him over and over every day. He just felt that his head was smoking and scorched


    No, I have to find a way to lead you to Yizhou city! He has inquired about it. Yizhou city is only more than 50 miles away from here. You can get there in half a day!


    Finally, in the dark night without the moon on July 30, when I was standing on the top of the earth building to "enjoy the moon" towards the desert yellow sand, he trembled and suggested to me that there would be a temple fair in Yizhou City in early August tomorrow. Not only the famous Yizhou temple would have a lecture, but also a new drama team from Kyoto would sing the first play in the largest welcoming building.


    Jing Hua''s eyes lit up when she heard about the play team.


    As soon as Zhou Qing saw the play, he quickly made persistent efforts and praised the performance of the play team all the way from Kyoto to the West.


    With a look of regret, Jing Yun took two invitation cards, put them on the stone table and sighed, "it''s a pity to go to Yue Zhang''s house to drink longevity wine tomorrow, otherwise you can go home and pick up the lady to listen to the play!"


    Zhou Qing came forward to have a look, "is the imperial concubine drunk?"


    Hearing the name, Zhou Qing looked forward to it and begged, "Lord, in a few days here, it''s either yellow sand or yellow sand. People are about to become yellow sand... Don''t you want to sit in the restaurant and enjoy hot drinks while listening to Xiaoqu to see beautiful people?"


    Jing Hua patted the post on the table and shouted, "what beauty! Is he the shallow man? " Then he sighed, "forget it, in order not to waste these two invitations, I''ll take you to broaden your horizons! By the way, buy a car of pear blossom white from Kyoto! In this camp, you can''t drink or guess boxing. Life is boring! "


    Zhou Qing almost knelt down!


    Early the next morning, Jing Hua went to Houying with his breakfast as usual to have a look at his priceless "bride price". He lingered until midnight before taking Zhou Qing on a fast horse to Yizhou city.


    Jing Yun has always ignored him and has long gone to Yizhou city to drink longevity wine.


    Zhou Qing inquired about the location of the welcome building and went straight to the welcome building after entering Yizhou city.


    It was the end of Shenshi in the afternoon when I entered the city. Neither of them had lunch. They were already hungry.


    Shenshi is not a restaurant meal. The "drunken imperial concubine" of the troupe started singing when it was dark, but in order to grab a good seat, the welcome building was already full. Fortunately, Jing Hua took the post with them, so there was a separate private room on the second floor.


    As soon as she sat down, Jing Hua took a deep breath of the air in the private room and sighed, "how fragrant -"


    Zhou Qingli took a deep breath behind him and sighed, "it''s really fragrant -"


    Their eyes looked at the source of the fragrance outside the window at the same time.


    The waiter who led the way said quickly, "my guest, you have a good sense of smell. The fragrance is a cinnamon tree downstairs. Every August, you can smell it all over the street. What would you like to eat, sir? "


    "You can pick up five kinds of dishes," said Xiao Hua. Add two pots of pear blossom white. "


    The waiter should say "De Le" and turn around to leave.


    Zhou Qing stopped him again. "May your restaurant provide accommodation?"


    The waiter replied politely, "naturally, there are rooms in the backyard, and the whole yard is fragrant with osmanthus. It''s very comfortable to live at night. Sir, how many rooms do you want? "


    "Two rooms first and leave tomorrow!" Zhou Qing replied, taking out two cloth coins from his sleeve pocket and throwing them to Xiao er.


    The waiter went down happily.


    Jing Hua turned her head and glanced at Zhou Qing standing behind her. "After so long, will you please sit down?"


    Zhou Qing smiled and walked to the chair next to him to sit down. He didn''t dare to sit opposite him or sit down. He just sat on his side. Seeing that he was in a good mood today, he quickly began to try brainwashing. "Sir, if you want to be small, we''d better do the major events of Yizhou quickly, so as to return to the Junyao city as soon as possible! Do you remember that you returned to Junyao city after the first month, but it took you two months to deal with the accumulated government affairs day and night... If you go back one day later, you may have to pay more memorials! "

 Chapter 219

    Jing Hua said, "Why are you forcing me? Aren''t you afraid I''ll quit in a rage? "


    Zhou Qing looked bitter, "master, master! You are a noble Lord. How could a noble Lord quit? "


    "Sir, I''ve made plans. Just watch. I''m going to live here for a year and a half. I don''t care what Junyao city is or what marriage is ordered! If the pursuers come, I will run directly to the depths of the desert. I''ve been exploring the terrain these days, don''t you know? "


    Zhou Qing was shocked and turned pale. "Lord, Lord, don''t you want to..." resist the order and refuse to marry? Find out the terrain and plot an escape route?


    "Look how scared you are! Can you see through my mind? Drink your tea! " Jing Hua is not ashamed.


    While talking, the waiter sent some dishes, and they kept silent.


    The waiter opened the door and left, but he heard a burst of laughter downstairs.


    A male duck came up in his voice, "I really don''t know how Liu Yizhou got such shit luck! Unexpectedly, he climbed up such a good marriage as Duke Dingyuan. You can go out this time? "


    Hahaha... Another burst of laughter.


    Jing Yuan winked at Zhou Qing. Zhou Qing understood and got up to open half the door of the private room so that the voice could be heard more clearly.


    Another rude voice replied, "last time I saw Mrs. Liu coming back from Kyoto. When she entered the city, she didn''t dare to get off the carriage. I heard that I also took Miss Liu San to Kyoto. I think they are also bold and fat. If this marriage fails, won''t Miss Liu lose face and go to Kyoto? "


    "Ha ha ha, I don''t know if the Liu family is on the right track this year." The male duck''s voice came out again, "although the marriage has been fixed for more than ten years, the first queen Huiyuan obviously didn''t want her son to have such a bad marriage, let alone died for so many years. As soon as Mrs. Liu arrived in Kyoto, she was recognized by the emperor and the empress! You say, they don''t know what means they failed? "


    "It''s not necessarily good luck, is it? It is said that the wedding date was originally scheduled for the middle of August, but today is the first day of August. Why is there no one in Kyoto to urge makeup for the wedding? Anyway, at least the bride price should be delivered? Who knows how much Dingyuan Hou dislikes the Liu family! In my opinion, whether this marriage can be concluded in the end is not necessarily true! "


    "Yes, yes! The Liu family makes some jokes every year for the marriage of several children! In my opinion, the troupe from Kyoto is playing "drunken imperial concubine" today! Play "La Lang Pei" directly! "


    Hahaha, there was another burst of laughter downstairs.


    The male duck asked again, "but how does Miss Liu look? What about spleen? When I was young, under the oppression of my brother and sister, if I wasn''t a fierce woman roaring in the East, I would be a weak and soft son. I''m afraid it will spoil the Dingyuan Marquis house! You say, don''t you?! "


    Obviously, others were more interested in women''s looks, so someone asked maliciously, "what do you think of Miss Liu San? It''s so beautiful that the emperor and the queen should marry regardless of the Liu family''s reputation in Yizhou? "


    "Haven''t you heard that Dingyuan Hou is already in a high position in Junyao city? He has been in a high position since he was young. How can the one above not be prepared for suspicion? If Miss Liu San is really beautiful, I don''t think the marriage will succeed! In my opinion, the Liu family took advantage of their poor reputation and poor appearance, and completed this good marriage. It''s just that little Marquis Dingyuan. What a pity! "


    Jing Hua heard the door of the private room next door open. Someone came out and seemed to stand on the porch and look down.


    Someone downstairs said, "too. Just look at her second sister. If it weren''t for the poor scholar who was too poor to open the pot, where would she be a door-to-door son-in-law? Miss Liu, who didn''t get married until 18, heard that she supported her husband''s family by herself. She roared every day! I don''t think she can''t kiss at the age of 20 if she doesn''t have a rich dowry! According to such an analysis, isn''t Miss Liu San a shameless woman? "


    Hahaha, everyone laughed.


    Suddenly a voice said, "Hey, this wine is very powerful today! I''ve only had three drinks. It seems that my head is a little heavy... "


    "Dong" sound, it seems that the man is drunk upstairs.


    The male duck''s voice also noticed, "it''s really good wine! When did the welcoming building have such good wine... "His voice gradually decreased, and finally disappeared.


    Several more people lay down one after another and shouted, "waiter, when did you change this wine? I didn''t say hello. Now I''m almost drunk! "


    Then there was the voice of the waiter running slowly, and he said in fear, "haven''t you changed this wine? Guys, what''s going on? Why are you so drunk? "


    Another humanitarian said, "well, it will take more than an hour for the play team to arrive. Let them sleep for a while. I''m afraid they''ll wake up at that time! Unexpectedly, before the imperial concubine got drunk, you got drunk first, hahaha... "


    Then Jing Hua heard someone coming out next door, and a lowered female voice said, "miss! They can''t bear such words. It''s enough to slander the Liu family. They actually say you''re a shameless woman! You just let them go? "


    The birch stood up behind the screen.


    Zhou Qing also looked chilly. Unexpectedly, there was his future hostess sitting next door just now?


    Another voice gradually went away with their footsteps, "forget it, there are people laughing at the Liu family in Yizhou every day. It''s just a little punishment. It''s just a pity that I can''t watch the drunken imperial concubine... "


    Jing Hua stared and thought for a moment. She felt that the voice was very familiar, but she couldn''t remember where she had heard it.


    He vaguely smelled a strange smell outside the door, frowned, suddenly looked stiff, and told Zhou Qing, "close the door quickly."


    He suddenly realized that the people downstairs were suddenly drunk. I''m afraid it was caused by the smell. The fragrance was clearly inseparable from the two women who had just passed by. And listen to that, these two women are Miss Liu San and her handmaid


    Under the window came the voice of the previous maid, "Miss, wait a minute."


    Jing Hua suddenly stood up and poked her head out of the window. Downstairs is the backyard of the restaurant. Sure enough, there are several cinnamon trees, and a carriage is parked next to the tree.


    He saw a familiar figure in a tapestry get into the carriage with the help of a maid.


    He was thunderstruck.


    Zhou Qing had long been hungry. He had just been listening to the talk downstairs. He didn''t pay attention to the delicious food on the table. Now the corner of the wall has heard it, so he looks forward to the host''s dinner. Seeing the master get up and take a look out of the window, he turned and sat down with his eyes wide and dazed, just like the scene when he suddenly got sick in Liangzhou that day. He quickly got up, picked up the herbal tea on the table, poured it on the master''s face and shouted, "where are the demons and ghosts? Don''t you leave quickly?"


    Jing Hua returned to her senses and slapped Zhou Qing on the top of her head, "have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?"


    Zhou Qing touched his head and murmured, "master, are you okay? I thought you had another attack. "


    "You pig head! Menggu is not the upper body of a ghost. If Menggu attacks, will it be useful for you to pour a cup of tea and drink twice? " He angrily scolded and wiped the water stains on his shoulders. "Why don''t you buy two clothes and let me change them?"


    Zhou Qing got up in frustration and walked out of the door. Before leaving, he took a reluctant look at the food on the table.


    Jing Hua grabbed the water stain on her face, flew out of the window and chased the carriage.


    ¡­¡­


    When Zhou Qing came back, he found that his master leaned against the window to look at his figure, unspeakable sadness and loneliness. He thought that he had just poured a cup of tea on him. He was waiting to come forward to comfort him, but he turned around and saw that the food on the table didn''t move at all. The LORD was still waiting for him to come back for dinner... In an instant, the feeling immediately replaced his previous idea, hurried forward to salute and presented his clothes.


    Hearing Jing Hua''s lazy response, he moved to close the window and served the master to change his clothes. He was relieved that he could sit back at the table and finally have dinner.


    Unexpectedly, Jing Hua went straight to the door and said, "let''s go quickly and drive out of the city before the gate is closed and go back to the camp!"


    Zhou Qing knelt down, wiped a tear and said, "master! We didn''t get rice and water after breakfast today. If you don''t look at the drunken imperial concubine, you''ll have enough to eat and go back! Think about it. If you go back, what''s in the barracks? It''s not all roast mutton and roast beef... At least we''ll change our taste... "


    Jing Hua looked at the sky and said, "there''s still an hour before the city gate is closed. Just let''s use it quickly." Then he sat down at the table.


    Zhou Qing nodded tearfully and still sat half his ass at the table.


    They swept away the food on the table, left a few cloth coins, and went out of the door and hurried back to the barracks.


    Along the way, Zhou Qing tried to suppress her curiosity. She just sighed and missed the drunken imperial concubine for nothing. It is said that it was a Book spread in Kyoto. It swept the whole city of Kyoto overnight, no less than the biography of Emperor Wu. And the troupe went on a road show all the way. Everywhere they went, they made a lot of money.


    The next morning, Jing Hua got up early for the first time and went to the east of the desert to see a sunrise. After having breakfast early, I went to the tent where the bride price was specially stacked in Houying as usual.


    To Zhou Qing''s surprise, not long after Jing Hua went in, he saw two soldiers running out of the door.


    He caught one of them by accident and asked what was the matter?


    The soldier blushed and said, "I''m finally going to send the bride price today!"


    Zhou Qing immediately petrified into a carving. Why did you wake up all night and turn your sex? Didn''t he claim to ship these betrothal gifts back to Kyoto? Didn''t he say he had explored the escape route and was ready to run?

 Chapter 220

    Is all this related to the meal we had in town yesterday?


    He recalled carefully. Last night, he heard what the future madam Hou said... How did he persuade the fruitless Lord to change his mind? Sure enough... My influence is too small


    Then he was ecstatic and finally came home... He almost cried with joy, but suddenly he was surprised, "home"? Do you subconsciously call that place "home"?


    However, the word seems to be good... He crazily misses the small courtyard with only one entrance and a figure who is often busy


    He clenched his fist.


    Not long after, more than ten horses were brought over.


    At the beginning, the carriage directly pushed the warehouse for the convenience of management, and did not move down one box by one. Now it''s convenient to pull out the bride price car by car and put it on the horse.


    So the door of the temporary warehouse, which had been deserted for several days, suddenly began to boil.


    The cart of the cart, the harness of the horse, the cry of the cry. Soon, the thirteen carriages were all set up and arranged neatly.


    Jing Hua lazily walked out of the warehouse, stretched himself, and boarded the front carriage.


    Zhou Qing always felt something was wrong and saw that the master had said "go!" He immediately turned over and mounted the horse and commanded the horse team to move forward.


    A group of people marched into the city, causing a lot of discussion among pedestrians on the road.


    After entering the city, Jing Hua sent an order from the car.


    Zhou Qing took a breath, but without delay, directly ordered the small soldier on one side.


    Soon, a blowing, playing and singing team appeared on both sides of the team, knocking and beating, so lively.


    Some of the people saw the way. Is this the bride price from Kyoto, which is rumored to have been sent to the Liu family of Uncle Wuyuan?


    Sure enough, a good man ran around and told him, "the first carriage has entered the door of the Liu family!"


    All the talents were finally determined. This is indeed the welcoming team from Kyoto.


    Jing Hua was respectfully welcomed into the door of the Liu family.


    A man in royal guards greeted him at noon and said, "I don''t know if the Marquis from Dingyuan came all the way. Liu lost his welcome. It''s really impolite, impolite!"


    Jing Hua bowed deeply, "this must be my father-in-law? My son-in-law is polite! When my son-in-law came here, he only brought a few soldiers and rough people. He didn''t know to come to inform the Yue family in advance. "


    Zhou Qing, who followed behind, secretly feigned that it was the Marquis himself who kept a secret and refused to say anything, okay? Seeing that the master''s eyes were blowing, he immediately came forward to salute and admit his mistake, "greetings to Uncle Wu Yuan. It''s a small dereliction of duty! "


    Jing Hua nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "it can be seen that this matter of etiquette still needs to be handled by a hostess!"


    Liu Hongyuan laughed loudly, "my virtuous nephew''s young talents are really the blessing of my Liu family!"


    Liu Hongyuan''s words were very appropriate. Rao was a joke he had suffered in Yizhou for more than 30 years, but it was related to his own legitimate daughter''s future happiness. He had to sweat in his heart. Now he saw Dingyuan Hou coming to the door to greet the wedding and said these words without any objection. He was really determined.


    They talked and laughed and went into the big flower hall in the inner yard. Outside, the housekeeper arranged to receive the bride price and check the gift list.


    Liu Zhang''s eyes were already red and led the crowd to kneel to greet the marquis.


    Jing Hua quickly stepped forward and gave a virtual hand, "mother-in-law, please get up!" On that day, at the Empress Dowager''s birthday banquet, he looked at the Liu Zhang family from a distance. On that day, Miss Liu San did not attend the birthday banquet.


    Liu Zhang stood up, touched the corners of his eyes with his handkerchief and said with a smile, "Lord Hou has come all the way. Please come and have a cup of tea."


    Jing Hua sat down on the left side of the head with a smile.


    Liu Hongyuan said with a smile, "Lord Hou came all the way. It''s really hard on the road."


    Jing Hua smiled. "It''s not hard to talk about. It''s just that the people''s livelihood is getting worse and worse all the way west. I can''t help but feel a little anxious."


    Liu Hong was greatly impressed, "the Marquis''s concern for the country and the people is really admirable. I''m afraid that the journey to the west by Hou ye will delay a lot of government affairs in Junyao City, which really terrifies Liu. "


    Jing Hua waved her hand again and again, "where? Although the affairs of the family and country are more important than Mount Tai, I dare not miss the political affairs of the family and country because of personal trifles. But getting a wife is a major event in life. How dare the son-in-law disobey the Empress Dowager''s order? On the other side of Junyao City, there is a cabinet to report the affairs to the marquis. It only takes a few days. It''s not marching and fighting. Where are there many urgent affairs? My father-in-law can rest assured. "


    Zhou Qing, standing on the side, rolled her eyes in her heart


    Zhang''s heart is anxious. Why do they keep talking about political affairs? She asked in a hurry, "this Yizhou city is no more prosperous than Kyoto. I''m afraid it''s not very comfortable to live in an inn and restaurant. I don''t know where the Marquis plans to settle down? "


    Jing Hua replied respectfully, "I''m going to settle in my third uncle Pingxi mansion."


    Zhang''s family was overjoyed. "What did the Marquis mean, didn''t he want to...?" Pingxi Gong is one of the only two remaining cousins of Jingtai Shuo Guo. He has been stationed here since he was sent by his grandfather to take over the military power of the western line. He is not affected by the storm of seizing sovereignty in Kyoto and is at ease.


    Jing Hua understood what she meant, and Tun replied with a smile, "exactly. As soon as my son-in-law entered the city today, it was not good for him to pay a dowry. He came straight to Pingxi mansion first. He was in a hurry and made his father-in-law and mother-in-law suffer. Later, the son-in-law entered Pingxi mansion and asked his third uncle and third aunt to have a good time. Tomorrow, I will ask my third aunt to go to the house to discuss the wedding with my mother-in-law. "


    Zhang took a long sigh of relief and said with a smile, "it''s so good, so good!"


    She was as uneasy as Liu Hongyuan. Seeing that the agreed marriage date of August 13 is approaching, but the wedding team is delayed, she doesn''t know that the marriage may go smoothly. After all, it was the Empress Dowager''s order that day. Although the empress agreed, she also heard that Dingyuan Hou was very resistant. Although she will not resist the order and refuse to marry, if her husband is not willing, how can her daughter make a good foot in her husband''s house? Originally, the groom didn''t have to welcome the distant marriage. But now he saw that the son-in-law not only came in person, but also planned to invite the Duke Pingxi''s wife to host the wedding, which was his greatest affirmation of the marriage. How can I not breathe a sigh of relief?


    Liu Hongyuan also said with a smile, "I haven''t seen Pingxi Gong for many years. I don''t know if he has always been in good health?"


    Pingxi Duke is the tallest and only Duke who looks at the six cities of Yizhou and even the whole Daliang. He has always had only nodding friends with the Liu family, and is generally not involved in weddings and funerals. This time, if you can get married and really get the favor of the Pingxi government, how can your family not look up?


    He glanced at his wife with admiration and thought that the marriage was really good.


    When Zhang came from a distant marriage, after knowing the situation of the Liu family in Yizhou, he could not help feeling frustrated and resentful for several years. Around is she cheer up, seek medical advice, and finally gave birth to a legitimate son and daughter, and painstakingly manage the marriage with Kyoto. Who would have thought that the turning point of the Liu family was in the hands of this woman?


    Jing Hua thought for a moment and replied, "my son-in-law and my third uncle haven''t seen each other for many years. I heard from my second cousin a few days ago that he is healthy and calm. I think it should be good. My son-in-law came far to greet the wedding. It would be inappropriate if there were no family members and elders to preside over it. The third aunt will meet at the government house tomorrow. As for the matchmaker, the only candidate that my son-in-law could think of at the beginning was Uncle three. I wonder if Lord Yue has other favorite candidates? When the third aunt agreed on a good day, the son-in-law went to visit and asked him to be a matchmaker to urge makeup. "


    This time, not only Zhang''s family, but also Liu Hongyuan opened his mouth in surprise. The Duke of Pingxi is over 60 years old. He has been famous for more than ten years. It has always been difficult to invite him out of the house for such weddings and funerals. On weekdays, he only occasionally gets together with his friends. This time, if we can have him as a matchmaker to greet the wedding, the Liu family will have a lot of face.


    Liu Hongyuan pondered for a moment, but said, "you''re so polite. It would be a great honor for the Liu family if Pingxi Gong came to urge makeup. How dare you ask for anything? "


    Jing Hua''s face flashed with satisfaction, and Tun said, "in this case, we''ll discuss with my uncle and aunt after my son-in-law arrives at Pingxi mansion. But... "He mused," there''s still a small thing right now. "


    Liu Hongyuan and Zhang couldn''t help getting nervous. "It doesn''t hurt to say that, a good son-in-law."


    "When I came here, the queen asked me to bring a word to Miss Liu San. I wonder if I could..." he glanced at the screen. He knows the rule that unmarried couples should not meet before marriage.


    Zhang said with a quick smile, "since the queen asked me, I dare not neglect it. I''ll arrange it now. Please wait a moment. "


    Jing Hua nodded and sat calmly on the chair. In my heart, I couldn''t help beating the drum. I thought it was a risky move. It doesn''t matter to tell a little lie at the mouth of the Queen''s aunt. What matters is, what if Miss Liu San is not the woman she saw yesterday?


    But in a moment, Zhang came back and asked, "please move to the hall."


    Jing Hua stood up and followed Zhang to the side hall. There is a screen in the middle of the hall. A figure loomed behind the screen.


    He opened his clothes and walked in without closing the door. He went straight to the screen and arched his hand and asked, "Miss Liu San?"


    There was a female voice in it with a slight "um".


    He couldn''t really hear it, so he said softly, "before leaving, the queen asked me to bring a word to the girl."


    After a long pause, the people inside saw nothing below and asked aloud, "Lord, but it doesn''t matter."


    As soon as she said this, Jing Hua was determined, and her tone brought a trace of imperceptible joy, "the empress said that if you are in a dilemma, you don''t have to worry too much. One day, we will be broad in the sea, with fish jumping and birds flying high in the sky. "


    Liu Hanzhu inside was shocked. At the beginning, she felt that the sound outside was familiar. At the moment, she didn''t bother to think about why she felt familiar. She just murmured and repeated, "the sea is wide with fish jumping, and the sky is high with birds flying..." she suddenly woke up. Where is the care of the queen and his promise to herself? She burst into tears. She didn''t feel wronged in such an embarrassing situation yesterday, but now she couldn''t help falling tears and choked and said, "thank you, childe. I will remember. "


    She understood!

 Chapter 221

    She understood!


    He knew that she thanked not the queen, but herself.


    Jing Hua jumped with joy. Yesterday, he followed the carriage and saw it enter the side door of Liu''s house. He remembered the words of those rude people downstairs and that she had been suffering from such heartkilling words for more than ten years, and his heart was inexplicably painful. He thought that if it was her, he would give her a free world and stay away from gossip here. Somehow, I remembered what my aunt said when she stimulated her will to survive that day. I wanted to drill into Liu''s house and tell her what she thought.


    Now that she finally said it and understood her words, how could she be unhappy?


    He said goodbye in a good mood. He said goodbye to Liu Hongyuan and Zhang Shi and went straight to Pingxi mansion.


    That Jing Xuan said that he went to drink the longevity wine of his father-in-law, and he must still stay in the house today, right?


    He has a very important thing to say to him... It''s time


    Sure enough, the next day, Liu''s house welcomed Pingxi''s wife, and Zhang''s family welcomed her with excitement. The two discussed for a long time before discussing the details of marriage promotion and makeup. Zhang sent off his father and wife, and ordered someone to bring a dowry list and a bride price list, so they can match it well. Yesterday, she read the list of 118 dowry gifts, which was astonishingly expensive. The dowry was to be sent all the way to Kyoto. Naturally, she couldn''t neglect it. Seeing her son in law so awesome, she added a lot of makeup to her.


    The next day, on the fourth day of August, Jing Hua''s wedding team set out from Pingxi mansion to urge makeup.


    It was recognized that the matchmaker in the wedding procession was Pingxi Gong, who rarely went out. He was followed respectfully by Lord Wu, the governor of Yizhou, and Lord Jin, the Tongzhi, all stunned. After a while, two fast horses stopped behind the team, immediately jumped down two people and quickly joined the wedding team. Someone whispered, "isn''t that Pingxi general and Yanxi general?"


    It was Jing Yun and his deputy general Yanxi who came.


    It is rare for father and son to act as matchmakers to greet the wedding at the same time, not to mention the rare and arrogant Duke Pingxi, who is 60 years old. The people sighed, how big the face of Dingyuan Hou is! Also sigh, the Liu family seems to be turning over.


    Jing Xuan was full of anger. He grabbed Jing Hua in black clothes, gritted his teeth and whispered in his ear, "are you - to - bottom - want - to - do - what?"


    Jing Hua was surprised, "but I sent you a letter asking you to come as a matchmaker. Why do you ask me what I want to do? What else can I do? " On that day, when he arrived at Pingxi mansion, he learned that Jing Yu had hurried back to the barracks and had no chance to see him. He didn''t say anything he wanted to tell him


    Jing Yu said in a deep voice, "how long do you want to hide it from me? I can see that almost half of the wheels of those dozens of cars are trapped... "


    Jing Hua said with a smile, "you finally found it?"


    Jing Yun said again in a deep voice, "your father is old. Don''t do anything crazy!"


    Jing Hua stared at him. "I don''t have any infatuation? Don''t you think he is happy? He said he was very happy to be a matchmaker. Finally, someone remembered him. He was moldy in the house all day. You really are. You drill in the barracks every day, leave your wife and parents moldy in the house. How can you be so patient? "


    Jing Yu''s green tendon jumped on his forehead, squeezed Jing Hua''s hand on his shoulder, added three points, and whispered, "if you just welcome the wedding, if you want your father to buy someone''s heart for you, don''t blame me for being impolite!" He kept saying that he didn''t want to marry him. Suddenly, he came to meet him in a hurry and invited his father to be the matchmaker. If there was no fishiness, who would believe it? Besides, he could see the rest of the carriages in the warehouse clearly. Although I don''t know what''s in the tarpaulin covered carriage, I can tell from the depth of the wheel that it must not be a simple thing.


    Jing Hua "hissed" and broke free from his iron claws, "second cousin! I was going to tell you that day! Who told you not to live at home that day? How about you and me holding a candle and talking at night? "


    Jing Xuan then let go and laughed, "you and I have been like biological brothers since childhood. Why are you so polite?!"


    Jing Hua rubbed his pinched shoulder, gave him a flattering look, and said, "since I''m my own brother, I''m not polite to that brother!"


    Jing Yu''s vigilance increased greatly, "what are you going to do?"


    "I left Yizhou the next day. It''s not a good idea for my brother-in-law to be idle at home all day. You are in the army... "


    When he finished, he looked up at him and waited for him


    Jing Hua touched her nose


    In the backyard of Liu''s house, I learned that the bridegroom actually invited Pingxi Gong to be the matchmaker, but also invited Pingxi general and magistrate at the same time. Everyone was very happy, and even 30% of the wedding money was distributed.


    Zhang finally felt elated and looked forward to the wedding banquet in the future. He completely lost his panic when he attended the banquet.


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    In the evening of that day, in the study of Jingyu, Pingxi mansion.


    Jing Hua sat opposite Jing Yu and drank tea at leisure.


    Jingyu was angry, "my father told me before going to bed, let me cooperate with you! What on earth do you mean? "


    My father went to greet the wedding today. He was tired for most of the day. He went to bed early after dinner. But before going to bed, he said such a sentence. How can he not be surprised and angry?


    Jing Hua is smiling. Everything is going well today. She will welcome the bride to the capital of Beijing the next day. When she thinks about it, she is in a good mood. "What do you think I mean?"


    Jing Yu patted the table, "although you are in charge of the cities of Junyao, you have no military power. Even if you have successfully bought off the 80000 soldiers of the eastern loyalists, you can''t get any help from my 200000 army in the West! Our Western army has always been loyal to the emperor. My father was always content, and my general had no ambition to worship the king. You''d better not daydream! "


    Jing Hua was stunned, "do I need your help? What help? I just want you to help solve the employment problem of my brother-in-law. Why is it related to your ambition? Besides, I didn''t buy Wang Zhong''s 80000 soldiers? His 80000 people only eat, drink and Lazar all day. How could I do such a mindless thing? "


    Jing Xuan took a deep breath, "then you tell me that you are a noble Lord. You don''t have to greet the wedding. Why did you take this opportunity to come to the Western camp? "


    Jing Hua took a deep breath and said solemnly, "you''re right. Indeed, this time I came to greet the wedding just by the way. The important thing is, "he paused and said in a low voice," in fact, the emperor ordered me to bring a secret order. "


    "The emperor''s secret order?"


    Jing Hua stood up and said, "pass on the secret decree of the emperor. The great general of Pingxi, Jing Xuan, will listen to the decree."


    Jing Yun immediately got up and bowed down to the ground, "minister, lead the order to listen to the announcement."


    Jing Hua said in a deep voice, "at the beginning of the establishment of Daliang state, tengju in the East, datan in the north and Xu Zou in the West are eyeing, and large and small wars disturb the border people and make a living. Order, the great general of Pingxi will lead his troops to the West. Within three months, he will take the cities of the state of Xu Zou, open up the territory and expand the territory for Daliang, and make great achievements! "


    Jing Zhen was shocked and turned pale with surprise, "minister Lingzhi!" After three bows, he got up with a look of disbelief, "why is there only oral instructions but no clear purpose for the great event of starting the army?"


    Jing Hua said with a smile, "Mingzhi naturally exists, but it is another one. Listen to the purpose! "


    Jing Xuan stared at him and had to kneel down to listen to the announcement.


    This time, Jing Hua really took out a roll of bright yellow silk shaft from her sleeve and read, "carried by heaven, the emperor ordered that a new artifact be transported to Pingxi camp under the supervision of Dingyuan Hou. The Pingxi general was specially ordered to lead the army to test the ox knife to ensure the safety of the border city. "Chin!"


    Jing Xuan took the will and got up with great joy. "Do you mean that there are the magic guns in the more than ten cars?"


    Jing Hua nodded and said, "I wanted to tell you that day when I first entered Pingxi mansion, so that you and I could hand over this thing back to the barracks the next day. Unexpectedly, you ran back to the barracks. But tomorrow is also free. Let''s go to the barracks to hand over this thing early in the morning. "


    Jing Yun''s mouth had already grinned to his ear. He changed his usual cold face and nodded again and again. Tun said regretfully, "it''s a pity that no one in our generation can make this sharp weapon. I don''t know..."


    Jing Hua snorted, "do you still need to consider this problem? The thirty boys I brought with me, those who still stay in the barracks warehouse to guard the carriage, are all skilled Gunners! You can use it at ease! "


    Jing Xuan frowned and asked, "is it possible to put the cart before the horse? There is a clear purpose in the small test Niu Dao to calm down such a great event in Xu Zou''s cities in the West. Unexpectedly, there is only oral instruction? Besides, three months, will it be too tight? "


    Swallow this, Miss Bai Hua, turn your eyes? Isn''t it too beautiful? The secret is to let you get ready first. The emperor''s decree will naturally send an imperial envoy Wen Chen, who is expected to supervise the army by the way. If the western expedition is successful, naturally someone must deal with important cultural and political affairs. "


    Jing Yu was greatly relieved, "it''s so good, so good!" With such an inexplicable secret order and a sharp weapon in hand, how did you know that the emperor was not trying to test his loyalty? It would be great if someone came to supervise the army with a Ming decree in the future. Although I really want to open up territory and make contributions, I don''t want to be a target in the eyes of the emperor and endanger my family


    Jing Hua continued, "three months is too short? After you try, you will feel that three months is too long... "


    Jing Fu stroked the imperial edict in his hand, like a baby, and couldn''t help sighing. When his father took over the military power in the West from the Liu family under the will of the former king, he fought like walking on thin ice. The dispute over seizing legitimate rights in Beijing became more and more intense. Seeing that king an, who was still the prince at that time, eradicated dissidents everywhere, there were frequent changes after he ascended the throne. I don''t know when I thought of taking my own family in the West. Unexpectedly, he only ascended the throne for a year, and the news of Hong came out. The new emperor, who took office, was obviously ambitious. Only a few months after he ascended the throne, he conquered himself and destroyed Zisang state in less than three months. He was in the west, but he never got any will. Even more dare not act rashly, only maintaining the peace of the border city. In case of a small war, resist it as usual, how dare you want to fight back? Does this mean that the new emperor should still trust himself? He really had no friendship with the new emperor.

 Chapter 222

    Thinking of this, he asked tentatively, "Hua''er, emperor, he... Is kind to others?"


    Jing Hua smiled, "nature is kind. Otherwise, how can I be allowed to come in Junyao city? Let Wang Zhong and 80000 sergeants show off at the Teng Ju border? " Pro thick means trust. If not trust, how can you rest assured that the iron gun artifact is in the hands of a general with a heavy army?


    Jing Xuan''s heart was settled, and suddenly he remembered today''s marriage, "Why are you so worried suddenly? A few days ago, I was not humming and going back to Kyoto with the bride price... " Suddenly, I asked my mother to discuss relatives, and I went to urge makeup the next day, and then I returned the next day?


    Jing Hua blushed. "To tell my second cousin the truth, I found that my unmarried wife is my sweetheart!"


    "What? Did you really have a sweetheart in Kyoto? " That day he thought Jing Hua was just saying it casually.


    "Naturally, otherwise, why was I so uncomfortable before?! On the first day of the new year, I went to the reception building to listen to the play and found that Miss Liu San was the sweetheart I met in Kyoto! In this way, I wish I could go back to Kyoto and get married immediately! "


    "Hahaha..." Jing''s laughter resounded through the study.


    No wonder you are so obsessed with your marriage. No wonder you are so obsessed with your brother-in-law


    The next day, they rushed to the barracks early in the morning for handover. The ten shining cannons were in front of him. Jing was very happy. He wished he could test them immediately. Since the miraculous records of the battle of Zisang spread to all battalions, Jing Yu was fascinated. Now, looking at the long-awaited magic gun, he stands straight in front of him. There are as many as ten. How can he restrain it? At that moment, he drove Jing Hua back to Yizhou city. It was called to marry a new bride tomorrow and have a good rest tonight.


    Jing Hua handed him a receipt list, which said that there were ten magic guns and several shells, divided into 3000 iron bullets and 6000 oil bullets, as well as a set of bamboo training materials and several other relevant auxiliary materials.


    Jing Yu signed his name without saying a word.


    Jing Hua specially explained that this textbook is a new marching manual created by the new military academy, so he must study it carefully.


    Jing Yu waved his hand and drove him away like a fly.


    Jing Hua took a look at the little black captain and walked away like a stream of good advice.


    The black little captain''s name was Changdong. He was one of the earliest Gunners trained with guns. At that time, Jing Yun appointed him the commander of the divine artillery battalion, and divided him into ten teams with five people in each team. The original thirty divine artillery men were divided into three teams, and those who were insufficient were selected from the new barracks.


    ¡­¡­


    The next day, Jing Hua put on her solemn wedding clothes and rode a tall horse to Liu''s house to greet her relatives. She was relaxed and happy all the way.


    Some of the passers-by''s pointing is completely irrelevant in his eyes. For example, a passer-by said, "Oh, I don''t know why it was thundering in the west last night. I don''t know if God can''t see it..."


    Another passer-by also replied, "yes, I heard the thunder that day. It''s just thunder without rain. I don''t know if there is a drought and thunder in August, but what bad omen? "


    Jing Hua smiled in her heart and finally knew how the gossip came into being. Wherever there is someone, chew your tongue. The Liu family has been laughed by the whole Yizhou city for 30 years, and no one in the Liu family has come out to plead or punish. Naturally, it has become a habit to laugh in people''s hearts, and everything will be involved.


    However, perhaps it was the side effect caused by Tianlei. The Liu family was afraid of a demon e son. There was no problem in welcoming the bride. They successfully welcomed the bride in accordance with the procedure and got on the carriage


    The carriage rumbled and soon left the city.


    Zhou Qing walked slowly forward according to the rhythm when the master came.


    Who knows, as soon as the Marquis riding in front changed his normal state, he shouted and took the lead in running away


    Although the returning team did not have the baggage of the magic gun, there was still a hundred and twenty dowry, which was always a lot! At the urging of the Marquis, it took six days to get to Kyoto.


    The bride''s eyes are still covered in the west suburb of Kyoto.


    Although she was full of curiosity about her husband''s appearance, she always kept in mind the ancient saying "don''t meet before marriage". She was calm and covered her head honestly all the way. At the moment, when she arrived in the room, Qiu Yi, her close maid, reminded her, "Miss, you can finally take off the brocade handkerchief for the time being."


    She lifted the lid and fell on the soft cotton quilt wearily.


    She always felt that her situation seemed to be undergoing subtle changes these days. She didn''t know if it was her own illusion. That day, Lord Dingyuan personally sent her the bride price. Although she was deeply moved by what he said at the beginning, she still had a trace of reason and didn''t understand why he wanted to send such a sentence to herself¡° The sea is wide and the birds fly on the sky. " It means that you can live according to your will after you follow him to Junyao city? But why is he so good to himself? Before Ming Ming, what he showed was unwilling. This is the freedom that women all over the world dream of, but freedom also means unfeeling. Did he send her this sentence at the mouth of the empress mean that they had their own lives and did not interfere with each other after marriage? Is it a good thing for a couple to divide the Chu River and the Han boundary as soon as they get married?


    These thoughts haunted her, and she began to feel a little uneasy. Along the way, some of the accompanying slaves were originally scheduled to come to the distant Marquis house, especially Zhou Qing, the close friend of the Marquis, who was more respectful to her. Isn''t this a precursor to separation?


    Two days passed with such apprehension.


    Finally, on the day of August 13, she dressed up again, dressed according to her clothes, and boarded the wedding sedan to welcome Dingyuan Hou''s house.


    According to the process, he entered the main gate of Hou''s house, crossed the brazier and worshipped heaven and earth. There was no high hall to worship. Finally, the husband and wife worshipped each other and went into their bridal chamber.


    She sat on the bed with her head covered and her handkerchief twisted. She waited for a long time until a series of staggering footsteps approached. A weighing pole steadily stretched in to open his red eyes, and a handsome man''s smiling face appeared in front of him.


    Why did he stay for a while?


    That day I felt his voice was a little familiar. I didn''t want to see it?


    But this is not the point. The point is that he is smiling now. Shouldn''t he want to draw a line with himself?


    She fixed her heart and smiled at him.


    He got up, went to the table, took Heying wine and drank it with her. He asked her softly, "are you hungry? I''ll have some food delivered. "


    She had no objection. At the end of the day, she was really hungry.


    He got up, gave an order outside the door, took her hand and took her to the bathroom to explain.


    "The newly built Dingyuan Marquis house was prepared by the Queen''s aunt and was built according to the relevant facilities of the original Guang''an Marquis house. Although the function of this toilet is a little complicated, it is very convenient to use. If you want to use hot water, pull the red rope, and there will be hot water flowing out of the bamboo tube; If you want cold water, pull the blue rope. If not, pull the rope three times. This is the bathing area... "He explained carefully and let her experience it again. She exclaimed, "it''s really convenient. Who came up with this design?"


    "At first, it was naturally the queen. There are many new styles in the Marquis of Guang''an where she used to live, all of which are amazing. I''ll show you around the Marquis of Guang''an another day. "


    Someone knocked at the door and came in. "Hou ye, madam, dinner is ready."


    "In the west room." He answered casually and said to her, "I''ve had dinner before. I''m full of wine. I want to wash first. Would you like to use some food yourself first? "


    She blushed, nodded and hurried out.


    She first called Qiuyi in, removed her pearl ring jade and complex auspicious clothes, changed into a light dress, and then went to the west room for dinner.


    When she came into the house after dinner, she saw him leaning wet in front of the bed and reading a book.


    She saluted and went into the bathroom to quickly wash away all the fat and powder. She walked to the bed, thought about it, returned to the bathroom, took a piece of dry cloth, walked to the bed and whispered, "Lord Hou, turn around quickly and I''ll wipe your wet hair."


    He raised his eyes to look at her, put down the letter according to Yan, sat up straight and faced the wall.


    She gently covered the dry cloth on the dripping tip of her hair and rubbed it slowly. When the hair tip is slightly dry, move the dry cloth up and slowly move it to his head.


    She was afraid to look directly at her, and her men became more and more gentle.


    Suddenly, she felt a hand pull her right hand from the right and drag it back. She exclaimed, and the man was pulled in front of him.


    Jing Hua had been waiting anxiously for a long time. She couldn''t stand her gentle kneading, dragged people to her chest, looked at her clean and beautiful face, and grabbed her lips as soon as she lowered her head.


    She was so frightened that her eyes closed immediately, felt his tongue pry open her shell teeth and hook her tongue, and a heat wave swept herself in an instant.


    The tip of the nose is the breath of a strange man, but she knows that this man is her dependence for decades. Mother said, no matter what kind of adversity, as long as you intend to live a good life, how can you live a bad life? With this in mind, she let out a cry, loosened her ten fingers firmly grasping the quilt, and hugged the strong body with her backhand.


    Jing Hua was also shocked, and her lips became softer


    The next day, they went into the palace according to their clothes and thanked the Empress Dowager. It happened that Zhuo Xi was also talking to the Empress Dowager in Ci''an palace. They thanked the queen at the same time.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the red light of the two people and was full of joy, especially Jing Hua. There was no resentment on his face. When he heard that he went to meet the wedding, he asked the Duke of Pingxi to make face for the Liu family, so he was very calm.


    The next day, August 15, the palace invited all close relatives to get together. The Empress Dowager looked at more and more members on the table with happy eyebrows.


    Family reunion, there is no taboo of the dividing tables between men and women.


    During the dinner, the people asked each other if Hou was lively. Jing Mo and Jing Qian are both pregnant and have a big belly. The banquet was filled with congratulations.


    After three rounds of wine, seeing that the banquet was coming to an end, the Empress Dowager asked about the schedule of Jing Hua''s return to Junyao city.


    Hearing this question, Liu couldn''t help holding his hands under the table.


    Jing Hua smiled, "Pearl has just married, and everything in Dingyuan Marquis''s house has not been straightened out yet. My grandson wants to leave in half a month, okay? "


    Liu''s face became more and more white when he listened.


    Before the Empress Dowager replied, Jing Yuan kicked him under the table, "how many government affairs are pressing in Junyao City, and some can''t wait to report to me. You have to wait another half a month?! What dream?! No, three days at most! "


    Jing Hua wailed, "Grandma! If the grandson is not at home, it''s all right, but now the grandson is newly married. How can he get half a month''s rest? In the past, in Junyao City, I didn''t even enjoy the treatment of one bath for ten days. "


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "I can''t be the master of this matter. Can''t military affairs compare with your love affair? Mrs. Hou Dingyuan, are you right? "


    Liu Shi hurriedly reluctantly smiled and felt that his hands and feet were even colder. "The Empress Dowager said it in time. Dingyuan Hou is in charge of Junyao city. He should share his worries for you. He should return to Junyao city as soon as possible to deal with government affairs. He should not waste his time on this love affair. When I got back, I packed up for the Marquis and asked him to leave as soon as possible. "


    The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction and said, "that''s it. We''ll leave in three days, birch."


    Jing Hua lowered her head in frustration and sighed, "Hey, I think I''m so miserable! I just met Meijiao Niang from Yizhou all the way, and I want to go all the way east to Junyao city. Eh? Ah ah, I suddenly remembered an important thing. Uncle emperor, I''m married. I didn''t receive your gift. Where''s your gift? "


    Jing Yuan glanced at Zhuo Xi. "Didn''t your aunt give you a car to add boxes? All into your little warehouse? Dare you say I didn''t send a gift? "


    Jing Hua said in a righteous way, "what my aunt gives is naturally my aunt''s intention. It is said that uncle emperor, you are the richest in the world. How can you be so stingy that you even have to save your nephew''s congratulatory gifts? The treasure of the previous dynasty hidden in Zisang was shipped three times in a row. How can I say that I should prepare some special congratulatory instruments? "


    Everyone was scared white. How could anyone ask the emperor for a gift like this? Besides, he also mentioned the treasure of the former dynasty. When was it not a secret?

 Chapter 223

    Liu''s hands trembled and pulled Jing Hua''s sleeves at the bottom.


    Jing Yuan glanced at the nervous crowd, smiled to ease the atmosphere and asked, "what kind of gift does Hua''er want?"


    "Uncle, my nephew just wants to be an idle marquis. Just be kind and let your nephew retire in advance! " Jing Hua said with a drooling face.


    Zhuo Xi is drinking a mouthful of tea and is about to retire at a young age? How does this elm head grow?


    The Empress Dowager also has a face of hatred that iron is not steel. "Why are you such a big thing, you boy?"


    Jing Yuan laughed happily. "You''re a good boy. You''ve played with me carefully! You''re leaving, aren''t you? I''m not as good as you wish! Come and fetch the edict. "


    Wuhe immediately took a brocade box and respectfully handed it to Jing Hua.


    The Empress Dowager asked curiously, "what kind of will is it, emperor?"


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "hum! The boy is very tired and lazy. His son asked him to guard Junyao city forever and return to Beijing without order! Look, does Junyao dare to send it to my cabinet? "


    The Empress Dowager''s face changed greatly, and so did the others. Liu''s face turned pale.


    Jing Hua was an old God on the ground. When she opened the imperial edict, she was overjoyed. She immediately got up and fell on the ground and kowtowed her head, "thank you for your grace!"


    They were surprised again and looked at each other, so they didn''t know why.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly came out to round up the game. "Emperor, today we are all our own people. We don''t take such fun! Don''t worry, empress mother. The emperor merged six counties from the east of Junyao city to the sea area into one Junyao county and granted it to Dingyuan Hou! In this way, the Duke of Dingyuan is a real vassal with a fief! "


    i see. All the people were relieved and looked at Jing Hua with envy and longing.


    Jing Hua said with a bitter face, "grandma, don''t think it''s a good job! Today, 31 of the 36 Zisang prefectures have been subordinated to Daliang, and almost all government and military affairs have been sent to the cabinet by special line. Because most of the five counties east of Junyao live in the powerful tulei nationality, there is no surrender book, which is the most difficult bone in the original Zisang territory. This time I gave it to my grandson. If my grandson goes, it will be a near death! "


    Jing Yuan glanced at him, "so I gave you Junyao city as the general rear! By your means, it''s not a matter of minutes to subdue the torpedoes? I believe you can! " Minute by minute, it''s a new word he learned from Zhuo Xi. It seems to be very useful


    ¡­¡­


    When they had enough to eat and drink, they left the palace.


    Liu got into the carriage, and Jing Hua followed.


    Liu still hung his head and his hands and feet were cold.


    Jing Hua shook her hand and asked softly, "what''s the matter with you? Ben Hou won the fief. Why are you unhappy? "


    Liu hugged his arm and gently pillowed his head. "My husband has a future, and my concubine is naturally happy. However, my concubine is a little, and I can''t bear it... "


    hate to part with or use? Didn''t she think she was going to Junyao City alone?


    He suddenly understood where her anxiety came from these days. A warm feeling rose in her heart, but he wanted to make a bad heart, "what are you reluctant to give up?" He just wanted her to say it.


    She was stiff. Thinking of what the queen said to her in private that day, the most important thing between husband and wife was to be honest with each other. There was no way to deceive for a long time, she bit her lower lip, blushed and said like a gnat, "my body, I can''t give up my Lord!"


    Jing Hua laughed and hugged her, "fool! Ben Hou is a military marquis. If there is no fief, the family members will naturally stay in Kyoto. But now I have a fief. As long as I don''t return to Beijing without an imperial edict and pay tribute every year, I can live in a fief with my family for a long time. "


    Liu''s heart was overjoyed. He suddenly looked up and knocked his chin on his head. He heard a "hissing" sound. However, ignoring the huge ecstasy in her heart, she quickly stroked his chin and asked painfully, "I''m sorry, I didn''t mean it. Do you hurt? "


    He shook his head, slowly picked up her face and said softly, "do you remember what I said to you on the day of the next appointment?"


    "Naturally, her cheeks are red."


    "Yes. That''s my plan. When you arrive at Junyao County, Ben Hou will give you a free sky. No one will laugh at you or stop you. If you want to do good, do good. If you want to go to the theatre, take the stage every day; If you want to... "


    Before he finished, he was held in his mouth by two soft lips. He was overjoyed, but before he tasted anything, he felt that his soft lips were about to retreat. How could he let her succeed? Press the back of her head and deepen the kiss.


    For a long time, he gradually found that his mouth seemed to taste a little salty. He let go of her and found her eyes closed and tears flowing.


    He wiped her tears with his fingers and asked, "well, what are you crying for?"


    She quickly opened her eyes and wiped her tears. "My body, my body is crying with joy."


    "It''s a bad habit. If one day you are really sad, but Ben Hou still thinks you are crying with joy, won''t it make you sad for nothing? "


    She smiled shyly. "I thought you were going to leave me and go back to Junyao City alone. I can''t eat these days. Why don''t you cry with joy when you suddenly get this good news? "


    "On that day, I promised you that you would let the fish jump on the wide sea and the birds fly on the high sky. He will not break his promise. If he wants to go, he will naturally take you with him. How can he leave you alone? " He stroked the green silk beside his ear and said.


    She lowered her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and summoned up her courage to ask, "in fact, in fact, I still want to ask, why are you so good to my body?"


    Jing Hua hugged her tightly in her arms, "you saved Mrs. pengxuan by smelling the incense. You and I met that time. Do you remember? "


    She nodded. "I remember, later we met at the Wushan hall. But that day, you didn''t know who I was, and I didn''t know who you were. "


    He laughed, "in fact, I saw you once before."


    "Ah?"


    "It was earlier that day that you lost your purse, but it was my mother''s wallet that made the Royal young man speechless and had to hand over his purse. At that time, Ben Hou thought that if any family married this fierce woman, it would be able to keep the house safe for 50 years. "


    She screamed and beat him, "ah! Lord, you make fun of me! "


    "Hahaha..." he burst out laughing. Can he tell her it might be love at first sight?


    The wheels rolled along the bluestone road to the distance. The cold moonlight dragged the shadow of the car body to the elder


    On this day, Zhuo Xi was leaning against the window watching mother Wu holding yu''er basking in the yard.


    Chunnuan stumbled, choked and excitedly ran in and shouted, "madam, who do you think is coming?"


    As soon as she turned around, a woman in plain clothes, with no beads and hairpin jewelry all over her body, knelt down in front of her and burst into tears before she opened her mouth.


    Spring warm also can''t help crying.


    The woman finally calmed her mood and sobbed, "madam, please see madam. People''s women should die if they come uninvited and disturb their mother. "


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes were also red. "Xiao soul, I haven''t seen you for a few months. Why are you full of nonsense? What comes uninvited and deserves death? Don''t you dare say anything in front of me? "


    She stared at chunnuan, "don''t you help your sister Ji get up and give a seat?"


    Chunnuan wiped a handful of tears, carefully helped her up, and moved a soft seat to one side to help her sit down.


    Ji ruomin said with a smile, "spring warm girl, don''t be polite. Now my injuries are all right. Don''t be so careful."


    Chunnuan stared at her for a long time and murmured, "sister Ji, you seem to have changed... How beautiful?"


    Zhuo Xi also saw it carefully. Sure enough, although she was dressed in plain clothes and had no hairpin ring, she seemed to be shining. Her skin was whiter and dazzling than before. She joked, "it''s really refreshing when people have a happy event. You look a million times better now. Zi Ran, the boy really has an eye. "


    Ji ruomin blushed, "my mother praised me falsely. People''s daughter had cultivated herself in Xiyan Yangsheng hall before. She also learned some methods to maintain her skin with sister Ke min. I think it''s all the credit of sister Ke min. "


    "Eh? Is it just kermin? I think it''s because your father''s case has finally been vindicated! "


    Ji ruomin got up again and bowed down, "the people''s daughter came here to thank her mother and the emperor for their great help. The people''s women really have nothing to repay for their great kindness and virtue. " She took out a delicate gadget from her sleeve, raised it on her head and said, "this is the craft learned by the people''s daughter from the master of children''s toys in Xiyan Yangsheng hall. I hope the empress and the prince Yu don''t dislike it."


    Zhuo Xi asked chunnuan to take a look. It was actually a delicate doll carved with soft oak. It was hollow inside. There was a small hole in its foot. In addition, a small hollow round piece of soft oak was stuffed. When it was pinched, it made a "creak"¡° Ha ha, now the toys of Xiyan Yangsheng hall are more and more abundant. This thing is what yu''er, a child of six or seven months old, likes to play. You have a heart. Get up. " She handed chunnuan, "go to eliminate the poison and take it to mother Wu. Let her be careful not to let yu''er put it in her mouth, especially pay attention to the small round piece under her feet."


    "Promise." Chunnuan knows that disinfection means fumigation.


    Ji ruomin sat down again and smiled. "It''s really a pity that minnu didn''t accompany her when she gave birth."


    Zhuo Xi was happy when she heard the speech. "If you want to have no regrets, there are some ways."


    Ji ruomin''s eyes lit up, "the mother means..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "yesterday, you know, after Tingwei''s House announced the judgment of the week, the son ran immediately entered Ning''an palace?"


    Ji ruomin frowned, hesitated and shook his head.


    "Do you know what he''s doing here?" Zhuo Xi smiled.


    In September, good news finally came from Ziran. Zhou Ji and his family were successfully captured and are being escorted back to Beijing for trial. They even hid at the border between datan and Xu Zou. If it hadn''t been for Jing Yun''s order to march to the west, Xu Zou would not have been able to find their trace for a while. A few days ago, Zhou finally pleaded guilty in prison. Yesterday, on the ninth day of October, Tingwei''s House announced that Zhou was sentenced to beheading, his son Zhou Min was sentenced to death, and the rest of his family members were exiled for three thousand miles. Such a judgment is light, because Tingwei''s house finally didn''t let Zhou Ji and Ji Jia''s case involve the late king an, so it only treated Zhou Ji and Zhou Min for corruption and perverting the law. The Ji family finally got the snow.


    Ji ruomin blushed and replied in a low voice, "people don''t know."


    Zhuo Xi snorted coldly, "he naturally came to our palace to ask for you."


    Ji ruomin lowered his head.


    Zhuo Xi continued, "but the palace refused!"


    Ji ruomin raised his head with a disappointed look on his face.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what are you nervous about! Now you are just an intermediary. If he asks to marry you, he should naturally prepare three wives and six gifts to propose marriage at your house! How does this palace decide your marriage? You are also familiar with the inner palace Shaofu and even the law of Daliang. This palace does this, but it is reasonable? "


    Ji ruomin breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it and knelt down and said, "Ji ruomin, a civilian woman, has been following family instructions since she was a child and has read broken texts. People''s women are not talented. She recommended herself to the queen and asked for the post of walking in the palace for seven orders. She is willing to work for the queen. Please help me... "


    Chunnuan came in at this time and was pleasantly surprised at his speech.


    Zhuo Xi said "tut tut" twice. "After restoring Ji Sima''s reputation, he really wanted to remember Ji Sima''s family voice in every word and deed. You see, her words are much better than yours. Spring is warm, don''t you think? "


    Chunnuan nodded solemnly, picked up the notepad on the side and began to record, "Ji ruomin, the daughter of Sima Jiqing of the former Po Prefecture, recommended herself as a calligrapher in the palace of seven lives." She murmured, "eh? No, elder sister Ji, when you left, you were already walking in the five life inner palace. Why do you only ask for a seven life inner palace to walk now? "


    Zhuo Xi laughed and said, "I''m afraid she robbed your job and made you hate!"


    Chunnuan said magnanimously, "no, no, now the empress has asked the inner palace to handle more and more affairs. According to the slaves and maidservants, it is also appropriate to set up one more post. You see, the emperor''s cabinet script has as many as eight people, and there are 16 people walking in the cabinet... "


    Zhuo Xi scolded, "nonsense! How can the affairs of the inner palace be compared with the emperor''s cabinet? " She turned to Ji ruomin, "but what do you think?"


    Ji ruomin bowed to the ground and said, "before the people''s daughter came out of the palace, she was guilty. How can she expect the official to return to her original post?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled happily, "you know you are the body of guilt?! Then you''ll find a way to get rid of the charges on your body, won''t you? "

 Chapter 224

    Ji ruomin was stunned.


    Chunnuan was also startled and quickly turned the Notepad to the first page. At that time, she was Ji ruomin who began to remember her promotion on the day she was demoted from the palace.


    It said, "it''s a crime to disclose the real birthday of the queen without authorization. Divulging that the queen went out of the palace to help with hand, foot and mouth disease is the second crime. On the day of the Queen''s birthday, she bewitched the people with tens of thousands of words. This crime is three. "


    I''m afraid it''s difficult to get rid of these three crimes?


    Ji ruomin tightened her lips and said, "the people still want to thank the queen for her kindness. I''ll leave now... If your mother has orders in the future, just send someone to give them orders. "


    She bowed three times and got up to return.


    But the Spring Festival Gala pushed the door in and said, "my mother, my lord Zi Ran wants to see you."


    Ji ruomin paused.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the warmth of spring. "Why is today''s arrangement so lax? Let one or two come uninvited? "


    As soon as chunnuan looked tight, he turned over the schedule and relaxed his airway, "did your mother forget? Today is the tenth day of the lunar new year. It''s your day to take a rest. "


    Zhuo Xi softened her face and said, "then invite him in."


    "Ruomin." She stopped Ji ruomin. "Would you like to avoid behind the palace?"


    Ji ruomin is struggling with whether to go. It''s easy to meet Zi Ran. It doesn''t seem good not to go. Hearing the speech, he nodded and walked quickly behind the screen behind the queen.


    However, Zi Ran didn''t come in for a long time and bowed down. "My lower official knocked on my mother. My mother is blessed and safe."


    "Oh, what kind of wind has blown the son, but adults have blown to Ning''an palace again and again?" Zhuo Xi smiled.


    "I''m here to apologize."


    "Oh? Lord Zi Ran has always been modest and cautious. Even if you want to apologize, you must get the decision of the emperor. How can you come to this palace? "


    Zi Ran knelt on the ground and arched his hands. "I''m here for an old case."


    "What old case?"


    Zi Ran said, "last July, Lord Xiao soul, the former internal official running script, was demoted from the palace. The lower officer is here to turn himself in. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled playfully, "Oh? This case is decided by the palace. Have you wronged Lord Xiao? "


    Zi Ran said, "my mother has made no mistakes. But Lord Xiao was guilty of three crimes that day. In fact, all of them were committed by lower officials. The empress''s birthday was when the lower official was walking in the study. When he heard the emperor talk about it, he remembered it. Unexpectedly, one day he went out to socialize and leaked his mouth at the banquet. This is one of them. Second, the empress skillfully relieved the danger of the spread of hand, foot and mouth disease. In fact, the lower official was curious and inquired in the spring hall. Considering that the empress''s birthday was coming, he leaked the news and encouraged the people to write tens of thousands of words to praise and accumulate blessings for the empress. It''s a matter of ten thousand words, and it''s also the work of an officer. Please punish me. "


    "So you did it all? But you are walking in the study room, and this punishment is not the last thing that this palace has the final say. If you only come to ask for punishment, you''d better ask the emperor. "


    Zi Ran bit his teeth and said, "I dare to ask my mother to correct Lord Xiao''s name."


    "Since you have come to take the blame, it''s not difficult to correct Lord Xiao''s name." As soon as Zhuo Xi said this, he saw Zi Ran''s face show joy, "but..." she changed her words, "if Lord Xiao except these three crimes, but his identity is clear now, he will inevitably have to bear the name of hiding his life experience, stung the Imperial Palace and waiting for an opportunity, what should he do?"


    Zi Ran obviously didn''t expect this change. He was a little unprepared. After thinking for a moment, he clenched his teeth and said, "the lower official asked the empress to point to a broad road!"


    On that day, Xiao soul went into the palace to serve the empress, which was arranged by the emperor, but it was also to save Xiao soul''s life. Can''t you drag the emperor into the water? He finally understood this time. The empress obviously wanted to avenge him for letting Xiao soul out of the palace by her hand that day. It''s all right. My mother wants to rub him round and flat. She will bear it.


    Zhuo Xi nodded in a very comfortable mood and said, "I''ve encountered a difficult thing in the palace recently... I''ve heard that adult Zi Ran''s Wentao strategy for a long time..."


    Zi Ran immediately cheered up and arched his hands, "Zi Ran is willing to share his worries for his mother, and he''s all over the place!"


    She glanced at chunnuan. Chunnuan understood, snickered, took a roll of bamboo slips and handed them to Ziran.


    Zi Ran opened it and looked at it. He was surprised and said, "the network distribution map of the national pharmaceutical system?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "the palace is worried about this great cause for thousands of years, and no one can trust it. Is Zi Ran willing to do his part for the people''s cause of seeking medical treatment? "


    Zi Ran said with awe inspiring righteousness, "it has always been difficult for the people to seek medical treatment. My mother is really a blessing in the cold. If this network is spread all over the country, it can not only reduce the burden of people seeking medical treatment, but also monitor the prevention of epidemic diseases throughout the country. In fact, it is a dual-use method. I just don''t know. Is there such a budget in the Treasury? "


    "If the Treasury is abundant, the palace will not be embarrassed. The palace is counting on a capable man to bear this matter... "


    Zi Ran''s face turned black. This clever woman can''t make bricks without rice. No matter how good an idea is, what can she do without financial support? He pondered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "don''t worry, I''ll leave it to the next officer! I''m sure I can lay out this network within three years! "


    Zhuo Xi laughed with satisfaction, "so good! You go back first. As for the matter of Lord Xiao, we will consider it first. If there is a way to achieve both ends, we should call you to tell us. "


    Zi Ran bowed down and said goodbye.


    Ji ruomin came out from behind the screen, looking gloomy.


    Zhuo Xi looked at it for a while and couldn''t help laughing¡° Why, it hurts you that the palace gives him such a chance to make great achievements? "


    Ji ruomin clenched his teeth and blurted out, "since my mother wants to learn from him, why don''t you have a good time?!" Three years?! Want to build a national medical network without money? To what extent does he have to work hard? When she was in office, she heard the empress mention this plan. Unexpectedly, more than a year later, the whole plan has taken shape, and it can be implemented when the money is in place.


    "Tut tut tut Tut, I feel sorry for my husband before I leave my marriage! You think it''s our palace that honed him. Why don''t you think about how the people in the world would appreciate him if he really became one? " Sure enough, I can''t hold back the truth when I meet Ziran, can I? What kind of lady?


    Ji ruomin said slightly angrily, "he is not the emperor. Why should the people thank him?" As soon as she finished, she said, "eh?" With a cry, he raised his eyes and looked at the empress in the head. "Empress, is it...?"


    The empress waved her hand, "where are there so many? I just hope it will be easier for the people to see a doctor and take medicine. Did huichuntang do a big deal with Xiyan Yangsheng hall recently? Don''t you know? "


    Ji ruomin naturally knows that she lives in Xiyan Yangsheng hall. Xiyan Yangshengtang daily makes some Chinese patent medicine pills for beauty and health preservation and sells them to customers. Seeing its good sales, the shopkeeper of the rejuvenation hall negotiated with Ke min to buy some Chinese patent medicine pills for sale in the rejuvenation hall. Unexpectedly, the effect was very good. Ke min made great progress every day. On the contrary, there were fewer pharmaceutical staff, so he discussed with huichuntang and asked him to send some apprentices to learn. After learning how to produce a Chinese patent medicine, you will charge a Wen technical patent fee, but the drugs sold need to be filed with the government and pay taxes on schedule. The rest of the profits are obtained by huichuntang. The shopkeeper of huichuntang was overjoyed. The profit was much higher than that from Ke min. Ke min is also happy to sit back and enjoy his success.


    Ji ruomin is extremely intelligent. How can she not know the meaning of the Queen''s question at this time, "does the queen want to extend this cooperation mode to other medicine shops and medical centers?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded. "If the drugs related to common cold, diarrhea and cough are classified into Chinese patent medicines, wouldn''t it be much easier for people to seek medical advice? Moreover, the formula medical center can provide it by itself. If you make it, you can also go to Xiyan Yangsheng hall to pay tuition. The government only needs to review the harmless drug properties, register and supervise the drug sales records of the hospital. Such a ready-made medicine shop doesn''t need to be used. Are you afraid you don''t have money to lay out this medicine network? "


    Ji ruomin listened for a long time, suddenly beaming with joy and saluting, "thank you for your guidance!"


    "Don''t you love your husband?"


    "Mother!" Ji ruomin dodged, "the people''s daughter is leaving!"


    "Wait a minute!" Zhuo Xi stopped her and looked at chunnuan. "It''s said that Ji ruomin, the daughter of Sima Jiqing, the former Puzhou Prefecture, has outstanding family background and literary talent. From now on, she will take the post of running calligraphy in the palace for five orders without any mistakes!"


    Spring is warm and full of smiles.


    Ji ruomin was overjoyed and knelt down to thank him. At the same time, he hesitated, "but the lower official still bears three crimes..."


    Zhuo Xi asked, "the man who bears the three crimes is surnamed Xiao minghun. What does it have to do with Miss Ji?"


    Ji ruomin wept and bowed down again. "I''m deeply moved by your great kindness. In the future, we should go through fire and water and die! "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "I don''t want you to go through fire and water and die. Hurry to get the official clothes and change into our palace. There is a task for you immediately! "


    Ji ruomin Shane went down.


    Chunnuan goes down to preach her mother''s will.


    Not long after, Ji ruomin really changed his official clothes and walked in with high spirits.


    Chunnuan looked at her with a snickering face.


    Ji ruomin received such eyes and suddenly had a bad hunch.


    Sure enough, Zhuo Xi assigned her an unprecedented task. So that one afternoon, she sat in the office room dedicated to inner palace running calligraphy and lamented.


    In the evening, she finally took a few pages of silk cloth and gave it to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi was holding the baby to be funny. Seeing this, she asked people to open the silk cloth exhibition in front of the baby and told him, "at the beginning of human life, human nature is good. Yu''er, look, these are people, two legs and two hands... Are they very similar to us... "


    After a while, Zhuo Xi threw the silk paper back to her, "is this what you painted all afternoon? Does this man look like a man? Does father look like this? " Teaching is lax and teachers are lazy. "Naturally, does this sentence mean to draw a school with lecturers and students? You see, we Xiao yu''er can''t understand. Redraw redraw. "


    Ji ruomin blushed. It took an afternoon to draw three pages of the illustrated three character Sutra. Is it easy for her?


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "ah, yes, it''s not urgent. If your painting skills are not good, you can ask for help from your relatives and friends."


    She suddenly understood that it was arranged for Ziran again!


    In the evening, Jing Yuan came back from the inspection of the hundred officials. Zhuo Xi asked him what he thought of going to the hundred officials'' office on this holiday?


    Jing Yuan sighed, "since the operation of the cabinet, the whole hundred official offices have been in order. Although today is a holiday, when I arrived, there were still more than ten officials working in the Department. The documents are neat and the files are locked. It''s much better than when I first ascended the throne. "


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "why do you sigh?"


    "Gongsunli has been ill for ten days. The first minister of the cabinet is not here. Although the decree is issued as usual, I always feel that I lack some sense of security."

 Chapter 225

    "Are you worried about talent fault? The imperial examination system naturally didn''t work so fast. The first group will have to wait at least three years before there will be the first batch of Shuji scholars and civilian officials. " Zhuo Xi had nothing to do before. Seeing that he was worried about selecting talents everywhere, he explained the later imperial examination system with him in detail. He accepted it very quickly, but the decree went down and he had to be selected at all levels. Naturally, he was not so fast.


    Jing Yuan asked about Ziran today. Zhuo Xi said everything again and said, "how about marrying them in a few days?"


    Jing Yuan looked at her carefully. "Are you so easy to let them achieve their wishes? What''s the next move? "


    Zhuo Xi put on his Chinese clothes and smiled, "naturally, he will contract the culture and education of our little baby in the future!"


    Jing Yuan laughed, "it''s really a good idea!"


    After they washed and went to bed, Jing Yuan hugged her and said softly in her ear, "what do you say, let''s add a sister to the baby?"


    "You say sister is sister? What if it''s another smelly boy? "


    "Smelly boy, you can do whatever you say!"


    ¡­¡­


    Three days later, the empress sent a decree to Ji ruomin, pointing to the extramarital study, and ordered the cabinet to walk Ziran. She married three months later.


    When Ji ruomin came to the palace on duty the next day, the first thing was to kneel down and thank you.


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows. "Why are you the only one?" Isn''t marriage a matter for two people?


    Ji ruomin blushed and said, "Zi Ran he... He said he was preparing a small thank-you gift for his mother... It may take two days to enter the palace to thank you..."


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with great interest, "Oh Thank you! The palace is really looking forward to...... "Ji ruomin blushed more and more and bowed his head.


    Spring warm timely jumped out of the fork, "Wow! Sister Ji is getting married. My mother has a gift of thanks. What about us? We''ve been worried about you for a long time... "


    The Spring Festival Gala, which came in to deliver tea, felt very humiliated. How could anyone ask for a gift from his sister instead of giving her Heyi when she was newly married? But chunnuan is already a five life female official, which is not under her jurisdiction. She had to help her forehead, smile and retire to the empress.


    Chunnuan didn''t let her go. "Why, sister of the Spring Festival Gala, don''t you want this gift? How can we say that sister Ji is also a female official of our Ning''an palace. We may not be able to go when she gets married. When will she stay if she doesn''t take the opportunity to ask for a gift from her brother-in-law? By the way, there are spring morning, spring sunny, spring quiet... "


    I really couldn''t listen to the Spring Festival Gala. I quickly apologized to Ji ruomin and said, "Lord Ji, please forgive me. Chunnuan adults are just joking. They can''t be taken seriously. I''ll leave first... "


    Ji ruomin stopped her and said with wet tears in her eyes, "sister of the Spring Festival Gala, I know. I was injured by sister Ke min in those months. You all worried a lot and made a lot of efforts. I also received the healing medicine you sent me. Ruomin has never thanked her sisters. Of course, I want to thank you this time. "


    The Spring Festival Gala lowered its head and bent over, "Lord Ji is polite. Where can I be a thank-you to Lord Ji. We are sisters. Lord Ji has a good home and a good future. It''s too late for us to be happy! "


    Ji ruomin asked somewhat puzzled, "are you asking me to give birth?"


    "I dare not." The head of the Spring Festival Gala is lower.


    Ji ruomin took a deep look at her, "so, my sister has worked hard. Let''s talk about it later. "


    "Yes." The Spring Festival Gala saluted the queen and withdrew.


    Zhuo Xi looked at their interaction and didn''t speak.


    Mother Wu came in with Xiao yu''er in her arms.


    Xiao yu''er couldn''t speak yet. She just waved her white and fat little hand and rushed forward when she saw Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi stretched out her arm, held him in her arms, smiled and said to mother Wu, "it''s a pity to have you. Otherwise, if he makes trouble early in the morning, it will be rare for the palace to have a whole sleep! "


    Mother Wu said with a smile, "what does your mother say. It''s a blessing that the old slave can personally serve his Highness the great prince. Besides, no matter how hard the old slave is, it''s not as hard as the mother''s feeding at night. "


    Zhuo Xi let the little guy sleep beside him at night, so that he can take care of him in time. At night, the little guy will wake up and eat milk once. Jing Yuan didn''t like him at first. He always felt that it disturbed their good sleep at night. Once he was woken up by a little guy. When he saw his hungry appearance, his heart was suddenly soft. So he could barely accept fighting for his mother with this little guy at night. But in the early morning, the little guy often wakes up and turns around when Jingyuan gets up to go to the court. He wants someone to hold him for a walk, otherwise he will cry. At this time, Zhuo Xi is often the most sleepy. She really doesn''t have the energy to get up. She will let mother Wu next door come in and take the little guy out and let the nursing mother feed him. Then she will walk around the small garden behind Ning''an palace in the morning to breathe fresh air, and then return to the main hall.


    Zhuo Xi said, "Mom Wu, the baby is particularly sensitive to color when he is more than four months old. When you take him out, you can teach him to recognize the color and see more bright red and green flowers. "


    "Yes. Today, the old slave asked him where he was going. He could clearly point out the direction of the golden chrysanthemum king he saw yesterday! " Mother Wu was filled with joy.


    "Really? Our little yu''er is so clever! " Zhuo Xi kissed Xiao yu''er, sat in front of the big case with him, and said, "Mom Wu, go and have a rest first. Come and hold him after breakfast. Also, I don''t know if the set of colored paint blocks sent by shopkeeper Ke last time have been washed. Please go and have a look. If they are washed and dried, they can be used to play with Xiao yu''er. " She let Xiao yu''er sit in her arms and opened an inner palace Memorial.


    Mother Wu stepped back.


    Ji ruomin has been watching quietly, staring at the prince''s lovely pink face, with an expression of envy and nostalgia.


    Zhuo Xi looked and joked, "Oh, it seems that our Lord Ji''s mind can''t wait... It''s the same. I don''t know how old lord Ji is?"


    Ji ruomin blushed and said, "mother! I''m just, I just remember being held in my father''s arms to study when I was a child... "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and sighed gently, "now the case has been closed. Have the coffins of your parents and relatives been transported back to your hometown?" The dead are gone. Although it is not easy to rehabilitate Zhaoxue, the things behind him still need to be taken care of.


    Ji ruomin had tears in his eyes. "Ziran had spent nine cattle and two tigers to find more than 180 skeletons that were killed together in Yizhuang at that time, but it was difficult to identify which ones were parents and relatives. Zi Ran discussed with me that after we got married, we would transport these remains back to Zhangzhou together and set up a grave for them. It would not waste the lives of those slaves who are not related to my Ji family and can enjoy incense offerings in the future. The relatives of their direct relatives picked up some symbolic bones and put them in the clothes grave for others to look after and worship. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "so good."


    Xiao yu''er twisted around in Zhuo Xi''s arms. She couldn''t sit still for a moment. Her little hand waved around on the table. Zhuo Xi didn''t notice that there was a pile of letters she had intended to give to Madam Hou Bogong, who now has several fiefs, which was swept to the ground by his little hand. One fell on the ground and happened to open. It was Mrs. Hou''s letter from Dingyuan.


    One side of chunnuan hurriedly picked up the stack of folds and wanted to reach out to hold the big prince, but Xiao yu''er waved his small hand and hid in his mother''s arms, giggling.


    Zhuo Xi stroked the baby in her arms and frowned. "Ruo min, what do you think of women''s three obediences and four virtues, husband and son?"


    Ji ruomin was stunned. Somehow the topic turned to this place. Could it be that... She replied, "a woman with virtue, speech, tolerance and merit can naturally make a small family harmonious and prosperous, but the lower official thought that the three obediences were open to discussion. In a woman''s life, she should not tie all her honor, rise and fall to a man. Her husband and son will leave one day. How can a woman really rely on others for a lifetime? " Isn''t she a living example?


    Zhuo Xi nodded with appreciation, "although it is a man''s ambition to seal his wife and son, why can''t a woman grace the Yin family because of her meritorious service to the country? The palace has always had a wish that some talented and virtuous women can bravely stand up and contribute to the country and the country and feed back the family. "


    Ji ruomin''s eyes brightened, "my mother said..."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and nodded, "you see, you and chunnuan are now the highest female officials in Daliang. You are very competent for the position of female officials with your own ability. However, there is no rank of female civil officials in qiandaliang. Therefore, your future development has always worried the palace. "


    Ji ruomin said in a hurry, "I don''t have an officer..."


    Zhuo Xi interrupted her with a smile, "this palace knows what you think. You are very satisfied with the current situation. However, the palace has been thinking that some jobs in the social division of labor are destined to be women, such as nurses caring for patients, female teachers, female doctors, mother and child nutritionists and breast raisers... But there are often few women engaged in these jobs, so it is difficult to find money. In that case, why not train these types of work in the whole society so that some women who are interested in this can get what they want? If you have made great contributions in a certain professional field, you can also be rewarded according to Enyin''s practice... "


    Chunnuan is an orphan. She doesn''t feel much about the Enyin family, but Ji ruomin is different. She grew up in the big family since childhood. Although she has experienced great changes since then, she knows that the Enyin family can not only cover the living, but also compensate the dead. As long as your credit is great enough, it is entirely possible to earn some honor and show filial piety for your dead husband and mother. Therefore, as soon as she heard what the queen said, she immediately understood that the queen began to be ambitious again


    However, the empress''s ambition seems to be her ambition... What if she wants to participate? Would you like to discuss it with Ziran? If he promised rashly, would Zi Ran blame her?

 Chapter 226

    Zhuo Xi said, "in fact, the first step in my palace''s mind is to set up a women''s nursing college to train female nurses to support the national medical system that adults Zi Ran will begin to lay out. Then expand the scope of training to doctors and gentlemen, and set up professional medical schools. Although men and women have great defense, they can be divided into men''s colleges and women''s colleges. In this way, the national hospital system can be established later. " In fact, what is the lowest end of training female nurses. She also knows that we can only start from the lowest end. How can families with a little family background let their daughters come out to learn the work that should be done by slaves and maidservants to take care of patients? Only the most helpless women at the bottom have gradually gained a firm foothold in the society, so that the concept of women''s employment is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. They are not afraid that there are no noble women to go out to study medicine and treat diseases... Especially obstetrics and Gynecology


    "Women''s nursing college? Medical school? " Ji ruomin muttered to herself, my God, just thinking about her, I think it is not only a great good thing for the people''s country, but also a great good thing for future generations. She lived in Xiyan Yangsheng hall for several months and knew the importance of postoperative nursing and professional nursing. She also saw it for several months before she knew that almost all the previous deaths of women with massive bleeding in childbirth were caused by improper nursing, and almost all the deaths of several infants caused by newborn jaundice, foreign body blocking nose and throat, infection and fever were caused by the lack of due nursing knowledge of the caregivers. No wonder today''s Xiyan Yangsheng hall has separated matters related to mothers and infants, and set up a separate mother and infant hall to take care of pregnancy, maternal and infant health and other issues.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "it is said that a woman without talent is virtue. This palace wants to let people all over the world see what it will be like for a woman with talent and virtue!"


    As soon as he said this, Ji ruomin suddenly knelt down, "madam, this is a blessing for all people in the world! I would like to devote my whole life to realize such a great wish for my mother! "


    Zhuo Xi was so comfortable that she finally tricked the couple into working for herself. Who let them set a set for themselves? They waved their hands happily, as if they were infected by the happy atmosphere. Zhuo Xi didn''t move, but sighed gently, "with your intelligence and ability, there''s no reason why you can''t succeed. However, you are now beset with worldly affairs, and it will be a big wedding in a few months. You are not in a hurry. "


    Ji ruomin''s face was scorched. "Madam, please rest assured. The junior officer can plan for her when she is on duty. She will not delay her normal work or let her worry. "


    Chunnuan finally entered their conversation atmosphere and participated, "since the empress has such a great wish to realize, your current daily work arrangements have been skilled. It''s better to let sister Ji screen the folds for the empress and wrap the rest. If you don''t understand, ask sister Ji again. What do you think? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at chunnuan in surprise. Yes, I don''t know when the little girl has grown up to be able to stand on her own. Didn''t she handle it well in the months when Ji ruomin was away? Chunnuan thought that the empress didn''t trust her enough, and hurriedly said, "now there are twelve palace maids holding pens in the inner palace, and three seven life palace maids walk in the inner palace. There is a temporary lack of time and space in the six life palace. If the empress has a suitable candidate, she can also add one or two... "These literate palace maids and three female officials recommended by the aristocratic family are the results of the early intrauterine training. In this way, can sister Ji make room to realize her mother''s great wish?


    Zhuo Xi was dumbfounded. Sure enough, the Secretary General wanted to know more about the situation than her. She thought for a moment and said, "why don''t you, ruomin, get ready and call on the world. The palace will publicly recruit liumingneigong to write, so that aspiring women will come to the written examination and interview in seven days. If you come to participate, just send a resume to you, and you will select the preliminary list. Regardless of age or origin, as long as you have talent, you will have the opportunity to go to high school. "


    Ji ruomin is numb. The female official in the palace has always been recommended by the aristocratic family or directly by the superior. For example, she is the one recommended by the empress. The court officials were almost the same, so those poor students never had the chance to jump into the Imperial Hall. However, a few months ago, she heard that the emperor had issued a decree to carry out a unified imperial examination to select young talents all over the country. She was very happy for the poor students all over the world. Now, will this decree benefit the poor women all over the world? Poor girls no longer have to marry blindly and dumb, and can''t jump out of the strange circle of three obediences and four virtues all their life? This one is a six life female official. How much glory will it be?


    Chunnuan immediately found the problem, "then, those palace maids can also participate?" She originally thought that the queen would choose from the twelve palace maids holding pens or three female officials walking in the palace of seven lives


    "Of course." Zhuo Xi couldn''t stand the noise of Xiao yu''er and stood up with him and coaxed him gently.


    Chunnuan jumped up excitedly. Xiao yu''er also learned her movements and jumped excitedly in Zhuo Xi''s arms.


    Ji ruomin had reacted at this time, kneeling on the ground and banging his head, "lower official, thank the queen for all the women in the world."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "get up quickly and don''t kneel easily. Women in the world? How can you thank the palace for them? They don''t know what the palace has done. "


    You''ll know soon. Ji ruomin stood up, didn''t answer, but excitedly began to draft the plan in his heart.


    Mother Wu came in to see the ceremony at this time. Zhuo Xi quickly handed Xiao yu''er to her, "this little guy just peed all over the palace. Please mom change his diaper. The palace is also going to change clothes. "


    Chunnuan was stunned and quickly knelt down and said damn it. She waited on one side. She didn''t even know that her clothes were dirty. Shouldn''t she die?


    Zhuo Xi could not help but stretch out her hand and flick her forehead when she saw the warm and round face in front of her. "You little girl is really damn. You just said not to kneel easily. Are you deaf to it? Besides, you didn''t pee all over the palace. What the hell do you have? Do you want to say that Xiao yu''er should die? "


    Chunnuan was shocked again. "No, no, no, slaves don''t dare." But listening to the queen laughing in a good mood, she caught another glimpse of the queen turning to the inner hall, quickly climbed up and chased after her.


    Mother Wu smiled softly in the back. She also wanted to laugh, but she didn''t dare. Although the empress always dislikes too many rules, she can''t mess with the rules, can she? She reached out and touched the cushion under the prince''s ass, and hurriedly took him back to the side hall to change his diaper.


    When Zhuo Xi changed his clothes and came out, chunnuan consciously picked up his notepad and went to the door of the hall. It seems that the person has arrived.


    It''s time to meet the guests.


    The first appointment today is Peng''s wife of Wu Xing.


    Since the hundred day ceremony, Zhuo Xi really hasn''t seen Peng for nearly two months.


    Therefore, Zhuo Xi was really surprised to see her coming in with a small stomach. "Sister-in-law, why didn''t you send someone to tell me you were pregnant?"


    Peng was stunned. He was supposed to kneel down and salute. Then he still knelt down and made a big gift. Then he got up and said with a bitter smile, "maybe my mother was worried that my first child was difficult to sit down. I was afraid of any mistakes, which would disappoint my mother..."


    Zhuo Xi secretly admired her sister-in-law''s tactful words, which not only pointed out that it was the mother Liu''s idea to hide the pregnancy, but also properly excused her, so as not to offend the empress. She waved to Peng, asked her to sit down at her hand, and asked her to stretch out her wrist and explore her pulse. While exploring, he asked, "it''s a great joy for my sister-in-law to be pregnant. If I know, I''d better send some tonic drugs to my house as soon as possible! Does sister-in-law have a doctor who asks for pulse regularly? "


    Peng smiled and said, "I was recommended by my mother and went to Dr. Hong in the mother and baby hall. Now he is a popular person in the museum. Please don''t move him unless it''s normal! According to Dr. Hong''s instructions, I checked every month after four months and took it according to their diet prescription. Dr. Hong said everything was fine. "


    At this time, Zhuo Xi also explored her pulse, nodded and said, "the pulse is very powerful. Has it been more than five months? Very healthy. Congratulations, sister-in-law. Is there a letter from brother? "


    Referring to Wu Xing, Peng blushed. "Every ten days, he will have a letter from home, telling his concubine to take good care of himself and his children."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "brother looks careless and sometimes very considerate. The palace guessed that he must have asked his mother for instructions, so that you can save yourself from morning and dusk? "


    Peng looked at her in surprise, his face reddened two points, and replied with a low eyebrow, "yes, after knowing that my concubine was pregnant, my husband wrote a separate letter to ask my grandmother for instructions. Grandma agreed. Mother, she also supports... "In fact, her mother Liu just said faintly," if you don''t, you don''t have to toss back and forth. Take good care of yourself... "With such a lukewarm attitude, her servants in the hospital are quite indifferent to her. Sometimes they return the sun and serve the Yin... If the maid and escort brought by her mother''s family hadn''t been considerate, I might be in a bad situation.


    Zhuo Xi heard her say so. Thinking of such a big event as her pregnancy before, Liu dared to cheat and didn''t report it. She was a little cold in her heart. Liu didn''t know what she was going to do... Her heart moved and asked her, "why didn''t you mention it at Xiaoyu''s hundred day banquet that day?"


    Peng''s face took a slight wry smile, "empress, what a grand and festive event is the Grand Prince''s hundred day banquet. How dare I make noise and seize the host?"


    After all, it''s a royal wedding banquet. If a minister announces happiness, it''s not double happiness, but there''s a suspicion of light.


    Zhuo Xi thought a little and asked, "is there anything uncomfortable in the past few months? Is there peace in the house? "


    Peng''s eyes were so red that he almost burst into tears. "Madam, everything is fine, everything is fine."


    Zhuo Xi took her hand and gently patted, "sister-in-law, don''t worry. Eldest brother is a relative of the palace. If you have any difficulties, just tell the palace. I can''t handle military affairs. I still know the secret means in the back house. " She knew that Liu had never been a good stubble, otherwise aunt Zhou and the real Wu Yuan would not have died quietly. It''s just that she has always been at odds with the Wu family and has strong backing. Liu doesn''t dare to do anything.


    Peng hesitated and said, "to tell my mother, nearly two months later, my mother-in-law thought that she wanted to take a concubine for my husband in datan on the grounds that my husband was in a desolate land and no one took care of him..."


    How could it be that the eldest brother and the eldest sister-in-law have just been married for less than half a year, and the eldest sister-in-law is pregnant again. Her mother-in-law is going to take a concubine for her son on the battlefield. Won''t this hand stretch too long?

 Chapter 227

    "How unreasonable!" Zhuoxi almost dropped the cup in her hand. She was rarely so angry. Originally, the Wu family had no close relationship with her. Apart from the mutually beneficial mutual help with Wu Xing, her friendship with the Wu family basically ended in a nominal family. If there is any personal friendship, I''m afraid it''s only the old lady and Wu Xing. On the one hand, the family members of the Wu family received the high order because of the dignity of the royal family, on the other hand, it also means giving kindness. However, Peng, who later married into the army, frequently went to the palace to accompany and spend time with each other during her pregnancy, and they formed a very deep friendship. If Liu Shi is in the mansion, it''s OK. However, she coveted the feast of the heavenly family before, and then hindered Wu Xing from going to war. Now she tries to destroy the relationship between Wu Xing and his wife. Rao is also angry.


    At that moment, she was in a trance. How could she be so concerned about the house fight between these women now? Is it really the reason why matchmakers do too much?


    She took a breath, pressed down the anger in her heart and said, "it''s also the negligence of the palace. Speak slowly and listen to it."


    Her anger was so obvious that Peng was a little flustered. She didn''t know what kind of dangerous move it was to sue her mother-in-law in front of her sister-in-law. If you are right, you may be able to get the care and support of the mother of a country in front of you, not only yourself, but also your bones and flesh in your belly. Even if you have dependence in the second half of your life; If you go wrong, you may lose the trust you have built in front of the queen forever. Although I don''t know why my husband said that the queen is more reliable than her mother-in-law, after all, her mother-in-law is the Queen''s mother-in-law. Is it really no problem to complain so rashly? Remembering that before her husband left, and in her letter, she told herself to treat and believe in the queen wholeheartedly, she had some confidence in her heart. Anyway, it''s always right to listen to your husband. And although she had only a few months of friendship with the empress, most of the time she was only quietly accompanied by her, she trusted this noble six younger sister very much. I''ve been in bed for nearly two months. It''s only more than a month to get up and get out of bed. It''s reasonable that the empress should not ignore it. I''ve always had doubts, and tomorrow''s test is imminent. Finally, I made up my mind to go to the palace today to talk to the empress. Sure enough, I learned that my mother-in-law hid the news that she was pregnant, didn''t she? Now look at the empress''s look, should you still stand beside yourself?


    So she picked up the tea sent by the previous palace maid, took a sip of her tongue and began to talk.


    Peng found himself pregnant in June. At that time, the weather began to turn hot. She often felt loss of appetite. Once, when serving her mother-in-law''s meal, she was disgusted and retched twice. At that time, she thought she was suffering from heatstroke, so she didn''t care much. That night, when she served her mother-in-law and returned to her Linyun hospital after dinner, she accidentally slipped on the path through a small garden. That night, I had more than abdominal pain. I was afraid to disturb the government doctor at night and the old lady at the same time, so I endured it all the time. The next day I still had abdominal pain and couldn''t go to greet the old lady, so I sent a close maid to report to the old lady. It happened that the government doctor came to ask for Ping''an pulse, and the old lady asked the government doctor to go to Linyun hospital to take her pulse. She learned that she had been pregnant for more than two months, so she quickly asked the maid to report the good news to the old lady, the lady and her mother''s house. The old lady was so happy that she asked people to take a lot of top-grade herbs and told her not to calm down in the morning and dusk. She had time to sit down.


    She was also overjoyed, and regardless of arranging for someone to stew the prescription prescribed by the government doctor, she got out of bed and wrote a letter to her husband. My husband went to war for two months. He wrote one letter a month. Each time he brought it in a letter to his father-in-law. However, since she reported her joy, her husband''s letter has become a ten day letter, which is often sent to her alone. In his first letter, he said that he would ask his mother for instructions so that she would not have to go to the main hospital every day. She didn''t know what method he used. The next day, she received the bird''s nest sent by the woman sent from the main hospital, and conveyed the rule that the lady should avoid her morning and dusk.


    On that day, the government doctor said that she was wrestling that night, some fetal Qi was unstable, and she almost saw red. After taking the medicine prescribed by the government doctor, she felt better, but the government doctor still told her that she had better stay in bed to raise the fetus four months ago, and then walk properly when the fetus was stable. So she lay in bed all day, careful not to move. I read my husband''s letters day after day. In his letter, he would say what city he had laid down, how many troops he had recruited, played with his brothers, hurt others, sometimes he was hungry for food and grass for several days... He also asked her to take good care of her body, and told her to move more after four months of stability, especially the Queen''s side. She wanted to stay in bed for nearly two months, so she sent a message to the palace saying that she was not feeling well recently and could not enter the palace. I hope the queen will forgive yunyun.


    At this time, she gradually found that the original maid of the Wu family in Linyun hospital was not working well. She either turned a deaf ear to her orders or obeyed them in vain. Out of caution, she let Mo Xiang, the close maid who grew up with her, quietly find a chance to report to the old lady. The old lady asked her to marry a family of four in Chuang Tzu and live in Linyun hospital on the grounds that she took care of her dowry. The woman with two daughters took care of the kitchen, clothes and other personal care. The man with the room guarded the gate and stared at people and things in and out. On the third day, she found that there was always a plant called Ganoderma lucidum in her diet. The Wu family is now the Bo family. Her diet is not heavy for at least three days, but there is the same plant in her diet for three consecutive days. No matter morning, lunch and dinner, it should be paid attention to. Sure enough, when the government doctor made a small diagnosis on the third day, she quietly took out the cooked Zhilan grass and asked the government doctor to identify it. The local doctor was surprised and said that this thing clashed with the tocolysis she was taking now. If she took it for a long time, I''m afraid the fetus would stop.


    She was very afraid. Although she guessed in her heart, she had no choice but to be more cautious and careful. She only hoped that she could spend the past two months safely. She could go to Dr. Hong to make a good diagnosis and see what the problem was.


    Unexpectedly, she had just been able to walk around carefully for two days. When she went to the "happy" mother and baby hall, she unexpectedly encountered a refugee attack on her return trip. She escaped under the desperate protection of her escort and coachman. Since then, she had to be extremely careful when she went out. She would never go out unless she had something important, so she never came into the palace. Since then, he has become more vigilant towards Liu. On the first day of each month, she just sits back and never eats anything in Liu''s house. If Liu''s food is sent, she will never eat.


    Unexpectedly, a few days later, her mother-in-law asked for a concubine for her husband. She was thunderstruck. Although it has become a marriage, whether to take concubines for your husband and what concubines are decided by the main wife. But her real mother suggested that her husband was far away in Ruihe city and had no one to take care of her daily life, so she couldn''t refuse, even if she was still pregnant. She wrote to her husband in a confused mood. The husband also wrote back to comfort her and said that he would never consider taking a concubine at this time to reassure her. But then her mother-in-law still collected the list of common women of several scholarly families in Kyoto City with great interest to discuss with her. A few days ago, I made an appointment with the Jiang family to visit Fuxiang temple tomorrow. She was so nervous that she thought of the empress and hurried to find someone to make an appointment, which was about today.


    Zhuo Xi listened quietly and sneered, "are you the only one going to see each other tomorrow? Will Liu go? " She called Liu directly, which was obviously a little shameless for what she had done.


    Peng took a breath, calmed his disordered mood and nodded, "my mother said that although my concubine is my wife, it doesn''t hurt for her to bear the curse in order to avoid her husband''s objection. So mother is going too. "


    Zhuo Xi pondered a little, attracted the Spring Festival Gala and asked her to find two clever palace maids to come in.


    Then she said to Peng, "what time did you make an appointment tomorrow?"


    "It''s the beginning of time."


    "Well, go back first. Since you have asked for this, the palace will not sit idly by. No soldiers can open up the territory for Daliang outside, leaving his wife with six years of experience, but he wants to be a mermaid at home. If this matter is spread out, it will make many soldiers in the world cold! "


    Peng was stunned. Isn''t it so serious? In the final analysis, it''s just a small contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "sister-in-law, thank you for your good health. Otherwise, if you are two or three years younger, I''m afraid you don''t have such good luck." Wrestling and drugging


    Peng was surprised. "Your mother means..."


    "People usually take hairpin as the standard to get a wife, but they don''t know that the best childbearing age for women should be about 18-25 years old. Too young, weak body, adverse to the fetus. So I heard from the Empress Dowager that you are older than your eldest brother, but this palace doesn''t think so. Instead, it feels too young! The palace also gave birth to yu''er too early, and his body bones have been a little bad. Sometimes, the fate of this child can not be forced. Now look at you. If you keep this baby, you will be blessed with many children in the future. So, sister-in-law, you have nothing to do with the Wu family. On the contrary, you will be a great hero for the Wu family. What''s more, brother, you have made great achievements in the war. You have a high probability that you will build your own house in the future. If you just give in, you will be inferior. "


    Peng was so excited that tears filled his eyes again. She always felt inferior because she was older and married late. Although it was her duty to serve her father-in-law, Liu''s repeated small movements made her almost miscarry, and she could only swallow it. Now, at first glance, it''s a blessing in disguise to get married late at an old age, and there will be a great day waiting for her in the future. The meaning of the Queen''s words is that she doesn''t have to bear it anymore. How can she not be excited and moved to tears?


    Zhuo Xi said bluntly, "you can''t cry anymore. The baby will learn from his mother in his stomach. When a person is pregnant, he is fragile and loves to cry, and the baby is easy to worry and be afraid of things; On the contrary, when a person is pregnant, he is strong and confident, and the baby can be optimistic and strong. What kind of character do you want your baby to be? "


    Peng was stunned again. She heard such a theory for the first time, but her mother was the founder of happy mother and baby hall. What she said must be right. She quickly wiped away her tears and straightened her chest. "Madam, I thank her for her teaching. Will my concubine be on schedule tomorrow? Please show me. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction, "tomorrow you should follow the plan, but there may be a little surprise on the way. You can act according to your circumstances. "


    Peng bowed down again, "thank you, empress. I''m leaving. "


    Zhuo Xi is busy and asks chunnuan to arrange someone to find some holy products to raise the fetus from the warehouse and give them to her.


    Peng thanked him again and again before he left the palace.


    Here, the Spring Festival Gala brought in two smart little maids sweeping in the outer yard.


    Zhuo Xi explained to them in this way.

 Chapter 228

    The next morning, Peng changed her usual low-key and plain clothes and asked Mo Xiang to find out the most luxurious brocade gauze she brought when she was married. The outermost orange gauze is embroidered with cloud patterns and piping with gold thread, and the inner is a light yellow dress wrapped around the chest. Mo Xiang combed her in a flowing cloud bun, inserted a set of gold-plated pearl feather inlaid head and face, and put on light makeup.


    Even Mo Xiang couldn''t help looking at it. "Miss, no, young lady, you... You haven''t dressed up like this for a long time..."


    Peng always knew her beauty. Otherwise, how could her mother hide her and refuse to kiss her? She knew her mother''s plan. A few years ago and when she was a hairpin, she began to prepare a dowry, but she never looked at each other and didn''t actively ask for someone to marry. During the reign of King Wu, there had been no palace election for several years. At that time, she was still young. When King Wen was elected to the throne, his mother reported her name at the first time. However, my father used the wrong word "private mine" when recording documents about the verdant mountain, and was demoted into a five life history Secretary by King Wen in anger. The next day I heard that my name was crossed out by Queen sun Yao. The next palace election, even if it is scheduled, will take three years. Moreover, the demotion of my father is a stain of my life, and it may be the end of my political career.


    From then on, my mother stopped thinking of sending her to the palace, and then began to find someone to talk about it. It is said that she raised her head to marry her daughter, and she can''t blame her mother for her contempt for those ordinary official families. Most of her mother''s photos are those noble aristocratic families. But which xungui family in Kyoto is willing to marry a five life history whose political life is stained? So his marriage was delayed. Generally, some girls from decent families begin to talk about marriage after 12 or 13. Generally, they can decide or handle the marriage before and after hairpin. There are not a few people who get married after 15, but it is even harder to say they are married after 16. After the marriage is settled, go through some procedures. When it comes to formal marriage, it will be 17 or 18. Generally, mother-in-law is not willing to marry such an older daughter-in-law, because the older it is, the more difficult it is to adjust. So Rao is her good name, but her mother has been unwilling to give up her body. She has to drag down those low-income families who come to talk about marriage.


    I never thought that one day I received the Empress Dowager''s order and went to the palace to see her. What''s more, it was the Empress Dowager who wanted to protect the media for her. The object was the hot commander of the five life golden guards in the palace, and the eldest brother of the Empress Dowager! Although he is a common son of the Wu family, the Wu family has no legitimate son. He is respected as the eldest son. It is quite possible to attack the Lord in the future. Moreover, Wu Xing has been a hardware official and a close Minister of the son of heaven at a young age. He has a great future. So not only she, but also her mother, whose eyes were above the top, were very satisfied. What''s more, it''s the media of the Empress Dowager. There''s all this face. How can you be dissatisfied? Therefore, although she heard that her mother-in-law complained about her age and the Wu family asked for a quick marriage in two months, she still married with full joy.


    On the wedding night, the husband''s obviously amazing look and the extreme tenderness in the bedroom made her look forward to a better life in the future. After entering the palace the next day, I saw the queen again. She affectionately called herself "sister-in-law", which has not changed until now. She also tasted the idea that the queen was close to herself. The husband repeatedly told him to get close to the queen, so she often went to the palace to accompany the queen.


    Wu Xing was twenty years old when he married himself. He didn''t explain why his first mother didn''t marry him. She also knew that her first mother was not close to her husband. But she heard her husband say that she had followed the emperor''s achievements all the way, as well as some great achievements that had happened when he stayed with the emperor since he received the empress. She felt that the empress was a strange woman, and because the empress was pregnant. She went to the palace more frequently. When she was free, she talked to her. When dealing with government affairs, she went to the side hall to make stitches quietly. She didn''t have any great wisdom. She could only talk to her mother about her family''s shortcomings. Unconsciously, she formed a deep friendship with the Queen''s mother in her company.


    Her wholehearted service also brought her husband''s gentleness. Even in some emotional moments, she felt that her husband should have some infatuation with her face and body. Sometimes she would have sex several times a night. Unexpectedly, he did not discuss with her at all, so he asked the emperor to go north to fight the next day when the queen killed the man in one fell swoop. She was angry - although it was useless to be angry, she still stayed in the palace for several days on the grounds that she had just given birth to the queen. She wanted to see if her husband could not help coming to the palace to pick her up. Unexpectedly, the empress enlightened her husband because she wanted to seal his wife and children and earn military merit. Her anger turned into a surprise. The empress said it was cold in the North... Where could she sit? Hurried back to Linyun hospital, he was hugged and made out by his husband.


    She thinks her husband still thinks of her in his heart? But why don''t you go to Ning''an palace to pick her up when you miss her? The husband said that he was afraid that his mother would not be taken care of by someone close to him... So he was the one he could trust with all his heart? A vestige of anger in her heart disappeared. Later, they were relieved to hear that the eldest prince was taken care of by mother Wu, who served the emperor since childhood. In the last few days of the expedition, her husband pestered her night after night to ask for it again and again, as if he wanted to advance all his shares in the future.


    When I got married late, I could still get such a good husband. She felt satisfied all her life. Who knows that God''s favor one after another, he was pregnant, and he escaped those cold arrows three or four times. She knows who put it, but due to her identity, what else can she do except swallow it and be careful? But what did the queen say yesterday? Are you a hero? You don''t have to give in to the Wu family? Even if you can''t attack the Lord, you are likely to start your house independently by relying on your husband''s military skills? Even, is it a blessing to marry late when you are older?


    Thinking of these, she felt that she could no longer maintain the previous low-key forbearance. Today she was going to see the concubine room again. No matter how she lost, she couldn''t lose! So she wants to dress up and let the common woman of the yuan family see how bright she is as a wife. How can she compete with her concubine room?! Also let her mother-in-law see. No matter how many means she uses, if she doesn''t shrink back for a day, who can laugh until the end is not sure! Originally, she wanted to wear this set of headgear given by the empress when she attended the Grand Prince''s hundred day banquet. Unexpectedly, she was still in bed to raise her fetus that day and couldn''t attend. It''s also appropriate to wear it today. First, it shows that you have the support of the queen behind you. Even if you have the support of your mother-in-law, how far can you jump in your concubine room? Second, I also told my mother-in-law that I would not give in from today, that I would strive for some support, and that I would make clear some positions. Even the emperor''s back palace is clean. Except for the queen, there are no concubines. My mother-in-law asked herself to take concubines for her husband who is far away on the battlefield?


    Peng looked at himself in the mirror, stroked his slightly protruding abdomen, and whispered in his heart, "child, my mother will not let you have an aunt before you were born." She took a deep breath and thought of the "surprise" said by the queen yesterday. She felt more confident and stepped out of the door.


    My mother-in-law had been waiting on the carriage outside the side door and didn''t see her face. She knows why her mother-in-law must go together. I''m afraid she has found a strange excuse to refuse it? With her as a witness, those excuses about appearance and character can''t be too far fetched, can they? Suddenly, she had some expectations for the meeting, and stepped on the coachman''s back to the carriage parked behind.


    The carriage rumbled along, nothing happened all the way, and soon arrived at Fuxiang temple. Mo Xiang and song''s mother helped her get off the bus, and she stood quietly in front of her mother-in-law''s carriage to wait and serve.


    When Liu got out of the car, a pair of delicate hands stretched out to help her. When she looked up, she was stunned on the spot and almost fell off without stepping firmly. She calmed her mind, looked at her daughter-in-law carefully up and down, and said, "today''s clothes are good."


    Peng happily blessed his body, "thank you for your praise."


    They quickly added incense and sesame oil according to the process, and then walked slowly to a pavilion on the back mountain of the temple.


    There were already two women sitting inside. When they walked over, one of the older people stood up, said hello and said, "is it Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Shao?"


    Liu stepped up and smiled, "exactly."


    Peng followed, but he was surprised, "mother-in-law, they are..."


    Liu secretly hated her affectation. "This is the sixth aunt of the Jiang family and the seventh miss of the Jiang family."


    The aunts of the yuan family ranked sixth. It can be seen that the yuan family must also be surrounded by wives and concubines... Peng''s heart was dark and despicable, and his face was still surprised and inexplicable. He said hello to the little girl behind him, "it''s Miss Jiang Qi. Nice to meet you." My concubine''s room is nothing. I''ve never made friends with anyone outside. Although my husband is the eldest son of a concubine, he is the media of the Empress Dowager and is marrying in. My husband is a four life official. How can I say that he is also an official wife? How can you make friends with an aunt?


    The six aunts looked no more than, and Liu was very unhappy. She obviously came to see each other. What did she do by pretending to meet by chance?


    Miss Jiang Qi stood up and blessed herself. "How are Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu."


    Peng nodded, "since mother knows you, Miss Jiang Qi doesn''t mind if we settle down here and have a rest?"


    "How can I! Please sit down. " Miss Jiang Qi symbolically brushed the dust on the small stone stool.


    Peng helped his mother-in-law to sit down and sat down with his abdomen. Unexpectedly, he turned away from the guest and greeted Miss Jiang Qi: "Miss Jiang Qi, please sit down, too." She was originally dressed in elegant clothes. This style is really generous and decent. People can''t find anything to be picky. Unexpectedly, Miss Jiang Qi can''t open her eyes for a long time. In particular, her profound action of helping and touching her abdomen surprised her that the other party was pregnant. For a moment, she was stunned and didn''t know why.

 Chapter 229

    With such a greeting, Miss Jiang Qi woke up, sat down quickly, looked at the embarrassed sixth aunt, and didn''t dare to speak.


    Mo Xiang came up, put a few small tea cups on the small stone table, poured tea gracefully, put a few dishes of snacks, and then withdrew.


    Looking at Miss Jiang Qi''s stunned look, Peng smiled and whispered, "Miss Jiang Qi is laughing. This chrysanthemum tea is made from the insulation tape at home. It can also be imported. If you don''t mind, use some together? "


    Miss Jiang Qi has never seen such a style. She can only meekly hold the teacup in front of her. It''s still very hot.


    Peng Shi also brought tea cups to his mother-in-law with both hands. "Mother-in-law, please use tea."


    Liu nodded, took the teacup and took a sip.


    Peng said with a smile, "this is the chrysanthemum medlar tea that the Queen Mother filial piety to the Empress Dowager. Yesterday, when her daughter-in-law entered the palace, the Queen Mother rewarded some. She said that her daughter-in-law is pregnant now, so it''s inevitable to be angry and attack. It''s most beneficial to drink some chrysanthemums to defeat the fire."


    Liu''s face stiffened again. He snorted softly and didn''t speak.


    Miss Jiang Qi was even more frightened.


    Peng began to bow his head and concentrate on eating. After drinking a cup of tea, he called in ink to pour tea for everyone again.


    Liu waited for a while. Seeing that Peng was not in the mood to ask questions, he knew that she was silently refusing. With a sneer in her heart, she directly asked, "what does Miss Jiang Qi like to do on weekdays? Have you ever read a book? "


    Miss Jiang Qi hung her head, twisted her handkerchief and whispered, "I haven''t read any books, and I like to do some needlework on weekdays..." the Jiang family said it was big, but it was not small. Her father was the sixth doctor of the Ministry of punishment. She was a common woman of an official family. She could have been married to some small families, but she and her aunt couldn''t see it. It was always difficult to think of being a concubine for an official. If she was a little confident at first, but now in front of such a bright and pregnant wife, she feels she has no power to compete at all. Originally, she heard that Wu Xing was in a foreign land and looked for a concubine to take care of him. She also had a chance. But now seeing such a wife, even a husband far away from home, how can he really look at a concubine? What''s more, her appearance is just beautiful, which can''t impress people at all... At the thought of this, she can''t help drying her tongue. She doesn''t want to speak after answering two sentences at will.


    Liu asked, "how many brothers and sisters are there in the family? How many are still unmarried? "


    In fact, these information have been known in advance, but Liu always needs to find some topics to see the other party''s response and temperament.


    Miss Peng Qi answered one by one.


    For a moment, it was quiet and speechless. At this time, a young woman''s voice came up under the pavilion, "liu''er, you asked me to offer incense today, but what''s bothering you?"


    That is called Liu er''s answer, "Qin Er, I, I''m so afraid..."


    "What are you afraid of? What happened? "


    "In fact, today, my mother asked me to visit Fuxiang temple. I had an appointment for three quarters. I wanted to come and talk to you in advance..."


    Qin er''s voice exclaimed, "look at each other? Which family do you look at? "


    Liu Er hesitated to answer, "yes, it''s the eldest brother of the Queen''s mother, Lord Wu far away in Ruihe city."


    Qin''er was surprised: "Lord Wu? Since he is thousands of miles away, how can he take a concubine? "


    Several people in the pavilion were shocked.


    The voice called liu''er continued to ring, "I heard that it was decided by Mrs. Shao. After carrying it into the door, it was sent to Ruihe city..."


    Qin''er exclaimed again, "isn''t that a long way away? When and when can we meet again... "


    They hugged each other and wept bitterly.


    Liu''s face was livid. He raised his head and called her attendant mother he to come in. "Bring me the two little hooves below and see how they can talk nonsense here!"


    Miss Jiang Qi was already crying, and her aunt behind her was also angry.


    Peng was also ashamed and annoyed, "mother, it turned out that you are holding your daughter-in-law to see your husband''s concubine today..."


    Liu was so angry that he ignored his image, "don''t pretend here! Don''t you agree? "


    "However, my daughter-in-law didn''t know there was a willow..." Peng lowered his long eyelashes and covered his smile in his eyes.


    Miss Jiang Qi couldn''t stand it anymore. She stood up, her lips closed a few times and didn''t say anything. The sixth aunt, regardless of her identity, said angrily, "although Lord Wu is my uncle, it''s too much trouble to choose so carefully! Such a big family, we really can''t climb up, so we''ll leave now! "


    She took Miss Jiang Qi to the ground and went down the steps of the pavilion.


    Liu was angry and pointed to Peng and shouted, "you say! Did you move your hands and feet?! "


    Peng stood up, sipped his broken hair at his temples with his hand, and said slowly, "believe it or not, my daughter-in-law doesn''t know anything about it."


    Mother he hurriedly came in, "madam, those two little hooves, I can''t find them..." when she took people down to see, where are there people in the fake cave?


    At this time, Mother Song went to the steps of the pavilion and asked Peng''s two people for instructions. "Madam, madam, someone came to the house. She said that the queen had a message and asked her wife to go back to the house to receive the order."


    Peng''s heart is another joy. Is there another "surprise" that his mother said? She looked at Liu and didn''t speak.


    Liu was also surprised. He got up and replied, "let''s go back quickly."


    Several people hurriedly packed up and went back in a carriage.


    The old lady has set up a incense table and waited in the lobby for a long time.


    Liu didn''t care to change his clothes and stood directly behind the old lady. Peng recognized that it was Xia he in Ning''an palace who came to deliver the message, so he said that his aunt said hello to her. It was considered that everyone had arrived.


    The maids in the courtyard outside Ning''an Palace are all prefixed with Xia. They call aunt Xia he. In fact, they are only 15 or 16-year-old maids. Xia he cleared his throat, "it''s said to the Queen --"


    The old lady knelt down.


    "I appreciate Uncle Wu''s meritorious upbringing, but Uncle Wu is over the age of no doubt, but he is weak under his knees. Today, there are two noble daughters of Zisang in the previous dynasty, who are specially given to uncle as his wife. I hope I can open branches and leaves for uncle and shine on the lintel. This instruction. "


    The old lady took the lead to give thanks, and motioned for red tea to send a red seal.


    Liu Shi was unable to wake up in the successive blows. It was when Aunt Qi next to her pulled her, she thanked her like a doll.


    Xia he took Feng Hong and said with a smile, "my mother said that the two wives have no family. They can be carried into the house tomorrow. Now they live in the Kyoto post station for the time being. If you want to choose a good day, you can, but your mother said it''s best within seven days. If a date is set, send someone into Ning''an palace to talk to your maidservant. The slave and maidservant have the right to marry and accompany the two wives into the door. What do you think? "


    The old lady''s heart is like a mirror to Liu''s recent actions. Now one grandson is far away in Ruihe City, and the other grandson is not around. She has long suggested that her son take another concubine. It''s also good to have more children. Now there is an oral order from the queen. Where can there be any delay? At this time, seeing Liu''s confused face, he immediately asked her, "Liu, why don''t you just go tomorrow? So as not to delay my aunt''s work. What do you think? "


    Liu did not know what they were talking about in front of him. He could only listen to the words behind him "so as not to delay his aunt''s work", and could not help nodding.


    The old lady smiled and said to Xia he, "aunt, please go back to the Palace first, wait for the Wu family to settle down properly, choose the time, and send someone to tell you later."


    Xia he nodded and left with satisfaction.


    Peng came over, held her mother-in-law''s hand anxiously and said, "mother-in-law, are you unwell? Daughter in law, let someone help you go back and have a rest? "


    The old lady directly called he ma in, "help your wife back to the main hospital to have a rest. I''ll let my granddaughter-in-law arrange it. "


    He ma looked at Liu anxiously. Seeing that she was still devastated, she had to sigh and help her wife back to her room.


    Peng suppressed his elation on his face and respectfully said to the old lady, "grandma, my daughter-in-law has trespassed."


    I said humanely, "let her do it. It''s probably another sad act. It''s better for you to do it. We Wu family haven''t had a happy event for a long time. We''ll have a good time tomorrow. No one else, just our family. "


    "Yes." Peng''s low eyebrow replied.


    She returned to the Linyun courtyard and asked her mother song to take the perpetual calendar to choose an auspicious time. She also drew up a list of dishes, drinks and drinks for tomorrow''s wedding banquet, the couple''s house yard and the list of utensils in the room... There were a lot of clear and detailed lists. He hurried to the old lady at the time of application, discussed with the old lady one by one, and arranged it.


    When having dinner, Liu finally recovered from the blow. When she learned that the two newcomers were going to enter the house tomorrow, the old lady decided to let Peng arrange it. She was so angry that she almost gushed two mouthfuls of blood. But she also knew that this was what the one in the palace meant. Think about how you have been careful to deal with the common woman who appeared halfway. After becoming the queen, you are more cautious and respectful, and dare not make any mistakes. He just wanted to take a concubine for her eldest son, but she unexpectedly provoked her to put her hand into her backyard. After all, a married concubine took a concubine for her father. How can she raise her head in front of those aristocratic family ladies in the future?


    She just wants to have a legitimate son all the time. Is it wrong to guard against the eldest son? I heard that Xiyan Yangsheng hall has a lot of means. After more than ten years of no news, the two wangchangji were pregnant. They are about the same age as them. Why don''t they have a chance? Also, in more than a month, it''s jiao''er''s marriage. Where can I face in front of her in laws?


    The more she thought, the more angry she was, but she didn''t have the courage to really refuse the Queen''s "kindness", so she had to hold her anger in her heart, resulting in not sleeping well all night.

 Chapter 230

    This night, Zhuo Xi was in a very good mood. The Wu family originally had four aunts, but for a long time, Wu Xing''s biological mother''s eldest aunt left, and the second son''s biological mother''s second aunt also left. The year before last, aunt Zhou died. Now there is only one aunt Qi in Wu Zhilian''s backyard, who is Wu Ru''s biological mother. After the Wu family got the title of uncle, they can have one wife, two side wives and several beautiful concubines. She wants to take revenge on others. She always likes simplicity and rudeness, so I''ll use power to oppress you. How are you doing? Besides, there is only one wife and one concubine in Tangtang uncle''s house. It''s not high enough.


    After listening to Xia he''s report, she knew that they had chosen Shenshi as the auspicious time, and joked, "you should take the opportunity to get more red seals, come back after drinking, and have a good look at Liu''s face!"


    Xia he went away happily.


    The next afternoon, Xia he led the people temporarily dispatched by the inner government to the post station to dress up the two noble women, and carried them into the Wu family from the side door with two small sedans. Under Liu Tieqing''s face, the two newcomers offered her tea, which was ceremoniously sent to her new house. After that, she happily took the several palace maids and eunuchs to the front yard and got a separate banquet. Everyone got a red seal during the banquet, and she also got a double red seal. Several people were so happy that they didn''t go back to the palace until they were almost five.


    The happiest part of the night was Wu Zhilian. He has always been a mediocre talent. He sat in the position of Tongzhi in Yizhou for five years. After being recommended by his boss, he was promoted to the position of Zhoucheng. He was also competing for business. After eight years, he became a doctor in Taipu temple for five lives, and then promoted to a doctor for four lives for five years. I thought the basic official journey was here. Unexpectedly, Wu Xing didn''t know where to find a strange woman to replace his sixth daughter. What''s more, he couldn''t expect that the sixth daughter had repeatedly built a strange country. He became the father-in-law of the state, and the official position in Taipu temple was promoted to one level, becoming Zuo Taipu. I''m afraid I''ll have a chance to join the cabinet after I''m promoted to the third life right Taipa in two years. That''s the culmination of officialdom. However, he always knew that a big tree catches the wind. In particular, the empress''s beating on her wife during the new year''s Festival last year has always been low-key and cautious. He knew that he had no affection for the noble "sixth daughter", and the only reason for the existence of the Wu family was for the dignity of the royal family. Therefore, he has repeatedly told Liu that nothing is more publicity. He himself has always been indifferent to men and women. In the early years, there were many aunts in the house. Now, although there is only one wife and one concubine, it is enough for him to stay several times a month, and he doesn''t have too many ideas. Although there are not many children, there are also two sons and four daughters. Therefore, these years, he was tossed in the backyard by Liu Shi, and he was too lazy to care about it. Who knows, the "six daughters" didn''t know which one to think of, and even gave two wives, even if it was the one in the palace who didn''t agree with Liu. In that case, it is estimated that Liu''s good days will come to an end. The empress wants to praise the two wives and suppress Liu. How can he not cooperate? Besides, when he was just serving tea, he glanced at them. They were as beautiful as flowers. Although she is an old minister and noble daughter of Zisang, she has been trained as a lady since childhood. It''s a flying blessing. How can he be unhappy?


    So he accompanied the old lady for a few hours. After everyone dispersed, he couldn''t care about Liu''s cold face and raised his feet to the Ruifeng garden where the two side ladies lived.


    This evening, some of the Wu family were happy and others were sad. There are also people in the palace who are happy and others who are sad.


    Jing Yuan came over at night and leaned at the head of the bed after washing. Zhuo Xi took care of her early and had asked Chunjing to dry her hair. Jing Yuan doesn''t like people to twist his hair. Zhuo Xi always took a dry cloth to wipe his dry and wet hair. Zhuo Xi was now wiping his wet hair and proudly told him what had happened these two days. When he heard the praise, he did not praise her for arranging people to relax in the back mountain of the temple, nor did he praise her for giving Wu Zhilian a side wife, but praised her for giving two at a time.


    He said, "these two people are given by the palace at the same time, and there is no order in their names. It depends on how Wu Zhilian chooses. The one he spoiled first, I''m afraid there''s no good fruit to eat. According to Liu''s temperament, he will take that to rub first. "


    "Want to drop pie? It''s not that easy. You should embarrass him anyway! Who told him not to look after his backyard? " Zhuo Xi said coyly and angrily, wiping his long black hair hard, and missed the little machine called hair dryer very much.


    Jing Yuan took a look at the little spot sleeping soundly on the side bed, pulled her under her body and threw away the wet cloth in her hand, "honey, did you stretch your hand in the wrong place? Why do you care so much about other people''s affairs? I haven''t been married for a long time... "He pulled her hand down


    Zhuo Xi was a little out of breath when he kissed him fiercely. He finally broke free and gasped, "his hair hasn''t dried yet."


    Jing Yuan was stunned, then laughed, quickly removed the barrier between the two, clasped her fingers with her hands, and sank into her body with satisfaction.


    When they finished, they were lying on the wide bed talking soundly.


    Zhuo Xi asked who is in charge of the military academy now. After Wu Xing went to war, she didn''t ask much about the military academy.


    Jing Yuan said in distress, "the wind is between us. Today, I feel that there is a great shortage of talents. Today, I discussed with the cabinet to open an additional imperial examination. I won''t wait for a township or county examination in those three years. "


    "Eh? I want to go with you. I''m also going to recruit directly and select a group of female officials. "


    Jing Yuan immediately cheered up, "Oh? Xi''er, but what are your plans? " Whenever she makes new moves, he can learn some practices for his own use.


    Zhuo Xi rolled his long hair like ink and said slowly, "emperor, talented men in this world can protect their homes and defend their country, become officials, and Enze family can seal their wives and children. However, there are not a few women with great talents, but why do you rarely hear that women have repeatedly built miracles to honor their ancestors? "


    Jing Yuan answered, "the women''s commandments put women''s inferiority and weakness first, and said that women''s common way and the code of etiquette and law are the inferiors, the Lord is on duty and the Lord follows the sacrifice. After that, there were couples second, Jing Shen third, women''s Bank fourth, concentration fifth, Qu Cong sixth and uncle and sister seventh. In a word, the foundation of women lies in the family. There are few places in the world where women can display their talents. " If so, it can only be the place of GouLan Painting Academy.


    Zhuo Xi retorted, "however, there is also a saying in the women''s commandment," Li ", a book that was taught at the age of eight, but as for learning at the age of fifteen. You can''t think so alone! When a man is eight years old, why can''t a woman? Is it because this reason is detrimental to the interests of men and can be ignored? "


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment. "Xi''er wants to learn and seek happiness for women all over the world?"


    "Of course, it''s not just about being eager to learn. In the world of professional division of labor, both men and women have harmony and suitability. For example, xiuniang, nurses, female doctors and female students have their own needs and strengths. Why can''t women learn and teach, learn and use, and expand? Men can seal their wives and children. If a woman has made great achievements, how can she not shine on the family? "


    Jing Yuan laughed, "Xi''er has such a big negative report. I support you!"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, "don''t you object?"


    "I already have a wife like this. The world is amazing. What do you want? As for other women in the world, what do I have to do with whether they have been taught, whether they have made contributions, whether they have benefited the family? "


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. "This matter is related to the social status, rights and interests of men and women all over the world. You are the holder of the peak of power. Naturally, you can''t understand what impact this change will bring to the family and family traditional ideas. There are bound to be stubborn people who will jump out and oppose it. At that time, you will be under a lot of pressure. "


    Jing Yuan even laughed, "if they have anything to say to me, it is! You just do what you want. There is not enough money in the palace. Just ask me for it! "


    Zhuo Xi took the opportunity to say, "I not only want to open a women''s school to train nurses and doctors, but also drive the hospital to cool everywhere. I''m afraid it will cost a lot of money. Do you have enough money? "


    Jing Yuan straightened up, "recently, the Treasury wealth over datan will be transported to Kyoto in a few days. Nowadays, the recasting of silver money in the world saves a lot of copper and can cast more copper money. Now I''m fighting everywhere, not only to make iron and artillery shells, but also to build weapons and tools, but also to provide food and grass for nearly a million soldiers on all sides. Rao was supported by the treasure left by the royal family of the Yu Dynasty in Zisang. I''m afraid the day will not be far away. The original mines are already stretched. Now I have only the royal construction team contracting projects and some meager income. Wulinshan stone oil field has not started to make profits. What good way can Xi''er collect money? "


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes lit up, "royal construction team?" How could she forget that this construction team was first established in Hou''s house?


    Jing Yuan nodded, "I saw that the construction team made a lot of profits, and Kou Niang was not in Kyoto for a long time, so I paid for the shares in her hand."


    Zhuo Xi said angrily, "no wonder she didn''t send me dividends this year. You bought it all. I still own 40% of them! What about dividends? "


    Jing Yuan smiled and patted her firm hip, "Xi''er, yours is mine and mine is yours. Your dividend, no! "


    "That''s OK! That''s my private library! "


    "Now that you have a place to make money, it is not impossible to pour it for you. But you have to think of a way to make a lot of money for me. I''m worried recently... Although taxes are being collected one after another, I feel that they are a drop in the bucket. Moreover, the original counties of datan, Zisang have just experienced the war, the harvest is not good, and the reduction is too strong... "


    "Want to make a lot of money..." Zhuo Xi pondered for a moment. "Tell me first, what kind of projects have your royal construction team received?"


    "They are all houses and gardens built by those noble families. The profit is good, but the progress is too slow. The houses are repaired one by one. "

 Chapter 231

    Zhuo Xi chuckled, "it''s not easy. He invited his disciples to teach hand in hand. After teaching, find a blank land, build small houses in batches, and then sell them to rich businessmen and rich people in batches. Isn''t that fast? I think the west market is full of wasteland. It''s a good place to back the mountain and face the water. Moreover, after the foundation is built, build a model house first, so that the rich can start to subscribe first. In the early stage, the subscribers can get the house at 90% of the price, so will it let the funds circulate? "


    Jing Yuan was very interested and asked about the operation method of this scheme in detail.


    Zhuo Xi told the villa development process of future real estate developers again and said, "if you have a suitable person to operate this matter, please ask him to see me tomorrow and I''ll talk to him in detail."


    Jing Yuan couldn''t help but kiss her neck, "Xi''er, why do you have so many wonderful ideas? I really love it... "


    As soon as they said this, they were stunned.


    Since they got married, they have been busy with official business, and their temper and character have been calm. They rarely say such explicit words. There are a lot of jokes in this sentence, but they both remind them sensitively that it has been too long since the last time they expressed their love


    Jing Yuan didn''t care to lose face, so she gently held her ear and said, "Xi''er, now I find that it''s such a beautiful feeling to love someone. Although I don''t know how monogamy is realized in your school, I can imagine that I can only have one person with you all my life. "


    The previous sentence Zhuo Xi also listened very well. She heard that her eyebrows were turned upside down at the end, "what is only? I coerced you? Intimidated you? "


    He held her tightly in his arms, "it has nothing to do with you, it''s myself. I can only stay with you both physically and mentally..."


    Zhuo Xi trembled in her heart. She never thought that this rigid ancient man could say such love words, but she tasted it carefully and immediately noticed that it was wrong. She got out of his arms and twisted his ears with one hand, "whether in terms of body or mind? Which fox seduced you? Who did you experiment with? Which hand did you touch her with? "


    Jing Yuan said wrongfully, "who didn''t let you have lunch with me yesterday? I don''t know where the maid of honor came from. She insulted me while I was taking a nap. I almost lost my life... "The word indecent assault was also learned from her.


    "What?!" Zhuo Xi raised her upper body and said darkly, "which fox son?! The palace wants her to know what it means to suffer! "


    Jing Yuan squinted at her, leaned over and kissed her. While kissing, he said vaguely, "I don''t know which one it was. I let the five rivers out... Gave it to the guards..."


    She mended his brain, a burst of cold, and beat him, "Oh, emperor, how can you connive at the palace curtain of the guard palace?"


    Jing Yuan said softly, "I didn''t let them do her on the spot! Only gave them half a day off and went out of the palace... "


    Zhuo Xi made up her mind again and stammered, "they, how many are they?"


    Jing Yuan looked up and thought, "there seem to be about ten?"


    Zhuo Xi''s exclamation was swallowed by him. Jing Yuan chased her angrily, but suddenly heard a loud cry.


    Zhuo Xi giggled and pushed him up.


    Jing Yuan hugged her angrily, and Zhuo Xi exclaimed, "get up quickly! The baby is hungry! "


    "I can''t afford it! Let mother Wu come in and take it away! "


    Zhuo Xi pushed him, "no! If he doesn''t eat in the middle of the night, I''m sick! Get up! "


    Jing Xizhi got up and looked at her regretfully. She struggled for a moment in her eyes. Finally, with a long sigh, she turned over and went inside.


    Zhuo Xi put on her clothes and picked up Xiao yu''er. Xiao yu''er was full and fell asleep again. Zhuo Xi changed his diaper, took him to the door and gently called "mother Wu."


    Wu''s mother answered almost immediately and put on her clothes. "Empress, but what''s wrong with the great prince?"


    Zhuo Xi shook her head. "No, I''ll stay in bed tomorrow morning. Let him sleep with you in the middle of the night."


    Mother Wu hurriedly brought it over and said happily, "don''t worry, madam. The old slave will serve him well!"


    Zhuo Xi took her slippers and went back to the big bed. She blew out the candles and put down the curtain. Then she lay down and hugged Jing Yuan''s broad back.


    The next day when Liu woke up, the first thing he did was to ask how things were at Ruifeng garden.


    ¡­¡­


    After all, it was the two wives who entered the house at the same time. It was necessary for those who wanted to fight first. She asked his mother with the mood of watching the play. She subconsciously hoped that she didn''t have to do it by herself. In Ruifeng garden, she fought to the death first.


    Who knows, mother he hesitated and didn''t know what to say.


    Liu''s suspicions were so great that he had to ask clearly.


    Mother he just told me what happened last night.


    It turned out that Wu Zhilian entered Ruifeng garden last night. Considering this priority problem, because it was given by the palace, it was bad to ignore any one. He went to Mrs. Qing''s house first, met her and said his concerns. Mrs. Qing deeply understood. Wu Zhilian made a suggestion, and Mrs. Qing agreed shyly.


    When I arrived at Mrs. Shan, I repeated this speech again and asked for her advice. Mrs. Shan agreed. So he was overjoyed and hugged Mrs. Shan to Mrs. Qing''s house. The three married at the same time... When it was almost dawn, the three somehow returned to Mrs. Shan''s house again. The servant sent water to two places twice a night. He knew what had happened... He was surprised, so these private things spread


    Liu was stunned. She always thought her husband was not too keen on men and women. Was it because no one provoked her? Three people asked for water four times in total... These two precious women of Zisang''s previous dynasty were trained by prostitutes?


    Before her bad breath came out, she reluctantly used some breakfast, and then heard from the steward that the queen sent a lot of nourishing herbs. She was even more angry and stuffy in her chest... Aunt Qi came to say hello and was sent back by her. She doesn''t want aunt Qi to see her jokes


    Peng''s face was red and his ears were red. After hearing the news from Song''s mother, he couldn''t help but breathe a long breath. It seems that her mother-in-law will reach out to Linyun hospital for a while and a half. Not long after, song''s mother came in and said that the uncle sent a small soldier to deliver the letter in person, saying that he had to meet his wife before he could hand it in. Peng looked dignified. Was something important happening? He hurriedly invited him to the small flower hall.


    As soon as we met, we knew it was a 12-year-old boy. The little boy saluted and said, "madam, the little one is Hong Cheng. Just call me a Cheng. This is a letter from Lord Wu to you. "


    Peng Shi asked song''s mother to pick it up. Seeing that Hongcheng didn''t go, he looked at himself expectantly and looked at the letter. She understood, "Mom Song, give me the letter." She asked Hong Cheng again, "but what happened to you?" But looking at his relaxed look, it should be no big deal.


    Hong Cheng rubbed his little hand and said, "no, everything is fine there. Small, small... "He suddenly knelt down and said," little uncle Cheng saved me. He gave me some instructions and didn''t expect to repay me. The little one is willing to serve her wholeheartedly in front of Mrs. Shao and ask her to give her a bite of rice. "


    Peng understood and opened the letter to browse quickly. Sure enough, the husband mentioned at the end of the letter that he had recently saved a little beggar. He had some ways to protect her safety. She suddenly understood. In her last letter, she mentioned that she was bumped into by refugees when she went out, and almost had an accident. My husband hasn''t stayed in the Wu family for many years. Where will the Wu family keep their own hands? He just took this opportunity to send this little boy a letter. He wanted to keep him on duty in Linyun hospital in the future.


    Thinking of this, Peng gently asked him where his family was, who else was in his family, his age, whether he had read books, etc. The teenagers answered one by one. He is from Mengzhou. He learned some Kung Fu when he was young. His parents died. He is 14 years old and knows only a few words.


    She asked about her husband''s acquaintance with him. The young man replied that he begged for a living all the way. He followed the army north and wanted to join the army for a meal. Unexpectedly, he met the disabled soldiers of datan and almost died. It was Wu Xing who led the way and saved his life. He was determined to repay, so Wu asked him if he would like to return to Kyoto City to be a family general and protect the young lady. He may be younger than his daughter-in-law in the military camp, but he may not be able to eat a knife in Kyoto. The tunnel also promised to come down. So he took his money and ran all the way back to Kyoto to take refuge in Mrs. Shao.


    Peng first asked song''s mother to settle him in the concierge room in the outer yard, saying that the small soldiers sent by the uncle settled temporarily. I pondered over my husband''s letter again and again. For the sake of caution, I wrote a letter to confirm the authenticity of the matter with my husband. Now she is full of grass and trees. After all, she rashly put a person in her yard. Without asking clearly, should she be buried beside herself knowing that it is dangerous?


    Zhuo Xi in the palace listened to Xia he''s shameful and angry incoherent report. She finally understood it and was stunned. It''s incredible to let the human brain mend... When she was ordered, she found some drugs to tonify the kidney and Yang and sent them to the Wu family. She thought about it, and then attracted Hua Yan, asking her to send a female dark guard to the Wu family Linyun hospital to protect Peng.

 Chapter 232

    On the third day, Zi Ran finally entered the palace.


    He gave a big gift to the empress, "Zi Ran thanked the empress for her kindness."


    "Get up first. If your thank-you gift satisfies the palace, the palace will accept it." Zhuo Xi looked at these two people now, as if they had been labeled with a label of "they can use them at will". She was in a good mood for no reason.


    It''s a set of gifts from Caizi Sutra¡¶ The content of the Three Character Classic was memorized by Zhuo Xi according to her own impression. The content was very few, only the hundreds of words she remembered. Some are still made up. But now to five month old Xiao yu''er obviously didn''t understand, so she began to think of turning it into a picture book. Originally she asked Ji ruomin to do it. Unexpectedly, Ji ruomin was far inferior to Zi Ran in calligraphy and painting. This task naturally became Zi Ran''s. After three days of spare time, Zi Ran finally showed the hundreds of words of the Three Character Classic with graphic descriptions.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the picture book of the first children''s book of this era, and her eyes were full of cloth coins. Oh, no, now it''s copper. At her initiative, in order to solve the problems of inaccessible coins and uneven weights and measures in Daliang, together with the original Zisang and datan regions, the whole country has carried out vigorous reform actions. All the original heavy and inconvenient bronze cloth coins and shell coins have been confiscated and printed by the government to be converted into new copper coins; The unit of measure was reformulated and the metric system was established. This trip has been extended to all corners of the country one by one, which has greatly facilitated the lives of the people. Such disputes have dropped sharply. Gongsun Li has regarded the empress as heaven and man, and has repeatedly urged the empress to go out of the court to participate in the imperial debate to solve the big and small problems of constantly pushing through the old and bringing forth the new in China. But Zhuo Xi never bothered to pay attention. When a problem comes to her, it''s OK for her to give advice when she''s in a good mood. She can''t stand it if she''s allowed to attend the Korean parliament and listen to the noise of a group of people at the bottom.


    Unfortunately, Kou Niang still stays in Liangzhou... She can''t help thinking that there is a suitable candidate in Kyoto... Ke min! The name popped out of her mind. However, the popular material in books today is bamboo slips. If this painting is painted on bamboo slips, the effect will be greatly reduced... If there is silk painting, it will only benefit rich and noble families


    Zi Ran watched the empress staring at the silk book in her hand and said nothing. Unable to guess the strange empress, she had to take a glance at the spring warmth recorded by sitting aside. Chunnuan understood and asked softly, "madam, do you want to load this into the case book?"


    It''s a gift from Zi Ran to his mother. If it''s personal, it can not be recorded in the official minutes.


    Zhuo Xi regained his consciousness, and his spirit perked up, "naturally. Maybe Ziran can go down in history in the future. " She threw the neatly bound silk back to Ziran and pointed to the pen and ink in front of chunnuan, "sign your name."


    Zi Ran was a little unclear, so, "why do you want to be named?"


    "Since you wrote this book, you are the author of this book and naturally enjoy copyright."


    Zi Ran went up to pick up his pen and wrote down his name in the lower right corner of the cover. Although he didn''t know what copyright was or what use it was, since his mother asked him to be named, it was enough.


    "Lord Zi Ran, can the development of the medical system be carried out?"


    Zi Ran smiled bitterly. The empress had not given it to him for ten days. She was so anxious that she had to ask Chen Xiao? Besides, he has to be on duty in the daytime. The only time he can spend is when he is on duty and taking a rest in the evening. Does the empress want to kill him? He hesitated and said, "we have contacted 78 medicine shops and hospitals in Kyoto. Sixty four have agreed to make proprietary medicines, 32 have agreed to share their prescriptions with others, and 14 have refused."


    The empress nodded, "let them present the prescription first, and then attach their curative effect notes for people. The more detailed, the better. Send them to our palace for approval. The first batch of examination and approval and patent grant fees are tentatively set at ten Liang silver per prescription. "


    Now there is a shortage of funds. It seems that she should try to save some early funds.


    Zi Ran''s eyes were wide, "ten Liang silver? Usually, a common medicine costs only a few Bei, no, just a few Wen... "That''s the cost of ordinary people''s family for five or six years... He''s not used to it since Bei and cloth coins were replaced with copper coins.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and sighed. In this era, the consumption level is still too low... If the people are poor, the country is poor... "For prescriptions with the same effect, only two or three best ratios can be selected, and the drugs for this disease can be widely sold in the whole Kyoto and even the whole Daliang. As long as the sales volume is enough, what is ten Liang silver for them?"


    Zi Ran thought carefully, and sure enough, he was still thoughtless


    Zhuo Xi went on to say, "to approve, someone should inspect the pharmaceutical process on site, someone should test the clinical efficacy, someone should prepare the approval number, supervise, inspect and record the production and distribution of each drug store. There are a lot of things that are not refined. Just say that the packaging and manual printing of each box of drugs is a big problem. How to solve it? "


    The son said blankly, "packaging? Instructions? "


    Zhuo Xi said, "now people make medicine and take lotus leaves as bags. If it is necessary to hoard after mass production, can it also be wrapped in lotus leaves? Also, how to use the medicine and how much to use? Do you want everyone who buys and sells drugs to explain one by one? Naturally, a unified instruction manual should be attached to it. If silk is used, how high is the cost? "


    Zi Ran woke up, but he was embarrassed. He hadn''t thought about these details at all... Now he put it forward, and he didn''t know what solution to it... His eyes lit up, "the queen has thought of here, but what solution is there?"


    Zhuo Xi sighed and knew that papermaking and printing had to contribute, "naturally, there is a way to solve it, but now it can''t be achieved by one''s own strength. We need a big department and a lot of people to work together. Yesterday, the Japanese palace negotiated with the emperor to set up a department of health to deal with medicine, hospitals, medical schools, nursing schools, national epidemics and other related matters. Are you interested in taking the lead? "


    Zi Ran''s spirit was refreshed. He had heard Ji ruomin mention the hospital system to him when he went back. He felt that there was much to be done, but the Emperor... He still had the post of cabinet. What can he do? Obviously, the queen is digging at the foot of the emperor''s wall. Does she agree or not?


    Zhuo Xi saw his hesitation, but he didn''t force it. "This matter is really important. You can go back and think it over and reply to the palace."


    Zi Ran sighed with relief and bowed his hands. "The lower official must consult with the emperor on a satisfactory policy, and then reply to the queen." The trouble was so big that he didn''t dare to promise rashly.


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "go first."


    Zi Ran left and thought all the way about how the medicine and the hospital complement each other and benefit the people. Instead, he forgot everything the emperor had told him.


    After handling the morning''s government affairs, Zhuo Xi remembered what Jing Yuan said last night at noon the day before yesterday. She was angry. She drove to Zichen hall and brought Astragalus yam stewed chicken soup.


    Jing Yuan got up in the morning at Yin hour every day, and then discussed with the ministers in the study. He was tired and exhausted. Suddenly, I heard a smell and looked up. My dear little lady brought a cup of soup. Her spirit was suddenly refreshed, and her sleepiness and fatigue were swept away. She stood up to welcome her.


    Zhuo Xi was not pretentious and didn''t bother to salute him. He just put the soup path straight to the small table in front of the imperial concubine''s chair resting at the side of the corner, and then bent over to take the spoon and waved to him with a smile, "Jingyuan, come and have soup."


    Jing Yuan stood stunned.


    This scene... Is really memorable


    Zhuo Xi sat down slowly. Seeing that he didn''t move, Sheng Tang''s hand gave a meal, looked at him again, and asked softly, "what''s the matter? Come and have some soup. "


    Jing Yuan quickly sat down next to her, took the bowl and spoon in her hand, put them on the small table, pinched her chin and kissed her hard.


    The masculine breath of a man filled her nostrils. She rarely felt such a strong man during the day. She instinctively wanted to push him away, but she didn''t dare to make big moves, so she had to let the tip of his tongue poke in and chase each other with her. She could not support her waist and back gradually, so she had to lie down slowly on the imperial concubine''s chair under his pressure. After the whole body relaxed, she felt his hot palm touch in from his chest. The ancient clothes are very complicated. The straps need to be untied more than ten times. However, the chest just crosses each other one after another, which is easy to be worn by hands. She turned her head and gasped, "what''s the matter with you? Let''s have some soup first. It''s bad when it''s cold. "


    Jing Yuan ignored her, took her to the inside, and stretched out his hand to untie his belt


    She stifled and pushed him, "No. It''s day now. This is the study... "


    Jing Yuan held her earlobe. "I''m not afraid. There are five rivers outside. Who dares to break in?!"


    "You... No! How could you be so uncontrollable... "Her voice was swallowed in his mouth. Soon she felt that she was filled with warm body and could not help humming comfortably. As soon as the voice came out, there seemed to be a faint echo in the quiet and empty study. She even had a dead heart... But Jing Yuan''s gentle voice sounded in her ear, "Xi''er, my Xi''er. I love you so much... "


    Obviously, she is the one who went back through the 21st century. Why does his boldness and enthusiasm seem to be no less than her? She sighed and said, "Jing Yuan, I love you too."


    Jing Yuan''s body stiffened and moved more fiercely, "what are you talking about? Say it again... "


    Her shame surged up, closed her eyes tightly and said angrily, "no, don''t say it."


    "Good Xi''er, say it again..."


    ¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi fell soft in his arms and thought about the bowl of soup. "You should drink the soup first, have a rest and then have lunch..."


    Jing Yuan closed his eyes and rested, motionless.


    Zhuo Xi lay down for a while, struggled, put on a dirty coat and brought the soup bowl. "Come and drink while it''s hot."


    Jing Yuan opened his eyes and said with a smile, "what kind of elixir is there in this soup? How can you be so stubborn that you just want me to drink? "


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "yes, this is the perfect tonic soup... It''s not you. How can you do if you don''t control yourself?"


    This is red fruit''s provocation.


    Jing Yuan took the soup bowl, drank it in one breath, handed it to her, and looked at her like a hungry wolf, with a faint circle at the closure of her chest. I just wanted to take a bite... But that''s his son''s rations


    She turned back and put the bowl back on the table. She wanted to reach out for the spoon to hold another bowl, but he pulled it back, and the whole person fell into his arms.

 Chapter 233

    Jing Yuan said with a bad smile, "Shiquan tonic soup! Let''s do it again... By the way, check the effect of this soup... "


    ¡­¡­


    When the gasp was quiet again, Zhuo Xi was soft and had no strength. She said weakly, "where did I provoke you? I just brought you a bowl of soup. As for killing me like this? "


    Jing Yuan hugged her tightly and kissed her sideburns. "Do you remember the first words you said when you came in?"


    "Huh?" Zhuo Xi thought powerlessly, did he really inadvertently recruit him?


    "You sat there, waved to me and said, ''Jing Yuan, come and have soup''... That''s what my mother often said to me when she was in the palace..."


    Zhuo Xi opened her eyes, "no? At that moment, you took me as your mother''s concubine? "


    Then why are you so cruel?


    Jing Yuan hugged her tightly, "no, at that moment, I felt your love for me as much as your mother and concubine..."


    Oh, it turned out that it was a child who was short of love... Zhuo Xi yawned and murmured, "lunch is useless. I''m so sleepy. What can I do..." it''s not time for lunch. If I feel sleepy after lunch... Do I have to sleep again?


    Jing Yuan wrapped her in his clothes and carried her into the bathroom of the bedroom. Hot water spilled from the wooden shower head. He held her, avoided the locked headdress, washed her body, and then carried her to the bed in the bedroom. Seeing her falling asleep, Jing Yuan''s heart was full of soft feelings that could not be explained clearly.


    When Zhuo Xi woke up, she didn''t know when it was. As soon as she sat up, she saw the Spring Festival Gala push the door and come in with her clothes in her hands.


    "Spring Festival Gala?" She was a little stunned. She seldom stayed in the bedroom behind Zichen hall, and Jing Yuan didn''t let any palace maids near here. How did the Spring Festival Gala appear here?


    The Spring Festival Gala looked down and said, "the emperor asked the maidservant to send clothes. I''ll wait on you. Get up. "


    Zhuo Xi recognized the trembling in her tone and gave her a white look, "laugh if you want! Why don''t you put it on for the palace? "


    The Spring Festival Gala put down the plate, picked up the close fitting pocket and served her to put it on. The raised face turned red with a smile.


    Zhuo Xi asked lazily, "when is it?"


    "It''s a quarter past noon." The Spring Festival Gala replied.


    It''s already a quarter past noon! Zhuo Xi took a breath of the air conditioner and remembered that his lunch was useless. No wonder he was so tired and had a meeting in the afternoon... Alas, I don''t know when this official business will come to an end.


    The Spring Festival Gala has said with a smile, "the emperor said that the empress is unwell, and the arrangements for the afternoon have been cancelled. Chunnuan and Lord Ji were both given half a day off by the emperor. "


    Spring warm? Lord Ji? Zhuo Xi asked thoughtfully, "have you had any misunderstanding with Lord Ji?"


    The Spring Festival Gala was stunned and soon replied, "No."


    "If not, how can one be warm in spring and the other become lord Ji?" Zhuo Xi stared at her and asked.


    "Well, it''s not warm spring. I''m on duty in Ning''an palace every day. I live with us again. Naturally, I should be more familiar..."


    Zhuo Xi thought about it and asked, "Spring Festival Gala, aren''t you young? Is there a suitable candidate for marriage? Have you ever thought of going out of the palace? "


    The Spring Festival Gala shook its hands, knelt down and said, "madam, maidservants are not going anywhere. I would like to serve you all my life, just like mother Su served the Empress Dowager... "


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "Mama Su grew up with the Empress Dowager when she was young. Besides, she combed herself at the age of 25. "


    The Spring Festival Gala clenched its teeth and kowtowed to the ground. "Although I didn''t accompany my mother since I was a child, I can learn from my loyalty to her day and month! After two years, the maidservant is twenty-five. Please comb yourself! Ask your mother to do it! "


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath, "a woman''s youth is just a few years. If she misses it, it will be a lifetime. Have you figured it out? "


    The Spring Festival Gala raised its face, already full of tears, but still nodded firmly, "ask your mother for perfection!"


    Zhuo Xi suddenly had a big hole in her brain. She didn''t have time to think about it. She asked directly, "is that the one you like, Ziran?!"


    The Spring Festival Gala turned pale and kowtowed anxiously, "no, it''s not. Don''t guess. Don''t be angry, Lord Zi Ran... "


    Zhuo Xi sighed and lifted her up with her hand, "Spring Festival Gala, when I came to Ziyang palace, you were the first old man in the palace to serve me. I always regard you as my sister. If you have any wish, I can help you. But Zi Ran, he and Ji ruomin were helped by me all the way. I''m afraid you don''t have much chance between them... Besides, now their big marriage is a foregone conclusion... Don''t be too sharp. "


    The Spring Festival Gala stood up and saw that her mother had no intention of blaming, so she wiped the tears on her face and the sweat on her forehead, "thank you for not blaming her. The maidservant knew that this was a delusion. You can''t force... "


    Zhuo Xi stretched out her hands and asked her to continue dressing for herself, "you are really. You yearn for Zi Ran, not the emperor. What are you afraid of?! After following me for so long, I knelt and knocked, cried and scared. I am so terrible in your eyes? "


    The Spring Festival Gala took a sniff and smiled, "madam, it''s not that you''re terrible, it''s that the palace rules are too terrible. Palace maids yearn for men, but they have to be copied all over the door... "


    "All over the house? Is it so serious? " Zhuo Xi was surprised.


    "Isn''t that right? As long as there is evidence, they will be punished with capital punishment. It will also hurt your family. "


    "Just yearning? How to check the evidence? If you don''t say it yourself, who can find out? "


    The Spring Festival Gala patted her chest, "didn''t your mother see it just now?"


    "This is called checking evidence?"


    "Now that she has been seen through, how dare you lie to her?"


    This is indeed the privilege of the superior. Zhuo Xi was helpless, "okay. Then tell me, how do you like Ziran? "


    The hand finishing clothes in the Spring Festival Gala paused, "maidservant, I saw Zi Ran when I was serving Prince yuan in Ziyang palace... He also helped maidservant solve the Siege..."


    Zhuo Xi took a breath, "how old were you then? How old is he? "


    The Spring Festival Gala smiled bitterly, "he is very young. The maid was several years older than him, but she still received his favor... But now it''s useless to say this. Don''t mention it again, madam. Since the maidservant has made up her mind to comb herself, she will naturally begin to forget him! Even if you look at it from a distance... "


    "You said earlier that you were afraid of being cut off. So, what relatives do you have in your family? "


    "Of course there are. The maidservant''s parents and two brothers are here."


    "Since there are parents and brothers, why don''t you discuss such a big thing with your relatives?"


    "I''ve made up my mind. I believe they will also support me."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "let''s discuss it later. Serve the Palace first. " I also had two strenuous exercises when I was hungry. I had already put my chest on my back.


    The Spring Festival gala held the Queen''s hand and went to the dining room. "The emperor hasn''t eaten yet. The food on that table has been hot in the imperial dining room four or five times. "


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "the emperor hasn''t eaten yet?"


    The Spring Festival Gala smiled and said, "the emperor said that when you get up and eat together."


    A little eunuch had seen them come out and ran to report to Wuhe. Wuhe happily reported, "emperor, empress has gone to the dining room. You see... "


    Jing Yuan put down the pen in his hand, got up and walked back.


    Wuhe exhaled and wiped the sweat on his forehead. The emperor was finally willing to eat


    Zhuo Xi saw Jing Yuan coming in and blessed him.


    After the Spring Festival Gala filled the rice and soup for them, they withdrew.


    Zhuo Xi gave him a horizontal look and buried herself in eating without saying a word.


    Jing Yuan was a little confused. Wen Yan asked, "what''s the matter? Is this?"


    Zhuo Xi glanced at him again and still didn''t speak.


    Jing Yuan chuckled, "blame me, blame me for not holding it. But the effect of your tonic soup is really not generally good... "Admit your mistake and flatter by the way. Is it sincere enough?


    Zhuo Xi picked up a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth. "Can''t plug your mouth?"


    Jing Yuan''s eyes turned into crescent moon, "thank you, madam..."


    After drinking a bowl of soup, Zhuo Xi picked up a spoon and began to read, "you get up at three o''clock. Breakfast is just a bowl of porridge. I only drank a bowl of clear soup at noon. I''m so physically exhausted. What are you waiting for me to eat? I''m sleeping and I''m not hungry. Are you hungry? Don''t be hungry in the future, you know? "


    Jing Yuan''s smile on her lips grew bigger and bigger, and her eyes locked her tightly.


    As soon as Zhuo Xi raised her eyes, she saw his burning eyes and turned her eyes, "think of your mother again? Oh, no, think of your mother again? "


    Jing Yuan laughed, "not thinking of her mother, but thinking of mother Wu..."


    Zhuo Xi choked a mouthful of soup in her throat and kicked her foot under the table. "How short of love you were when you were a child... You think of this mother and that mother?"


    Jing Yuan was not annoyed, "when I was a child, but now I don''t lack love!"


    They laughed for a while. Zhuo Xi talked about business. "The Department of health I told you last time is in charge of national epidemic diseases, drugs, medical schools, medical schools and nursing schools. This system is quite huge. Start preparations as soon as possible?"


    Jing Yuan''s first reaction was: "where does money come from?"


    Zhuo Xi glanced sideways at him, "didn''t you say you were short of money and asked you for money?" She held out a hand. "Give me some money? Doesn''t it mean that the Treasury treasures over there are going to be transported? "


    Jing Yuan slapped her hand, "Wei Fu also pointed to those properties to reward the soldiers who laid down datan! How can they return empty handed after they have worked so hard to win the victory? "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t expect it either. He put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "where is it? I didn''t see it. Isn''t it all the roaring forward of the divine gun? If you want to reward people on merit, I think it is me who has made the greatest contribution! "


    "You?! Are you a soldier or a machete on the battlefield? "


    "If it weren''t for me, would you know the existence of divine cannon? If it weren''t for me, could you get the magic gun made by Lin Lang? How much more money and blood do you have to pay without magic guns? Without magic guns, your army will beat datan and Zisang at least 20 years later. "


    Jing Yuan also put down the dishes and chopsticks, took the towel she handed over and wiped the corners of her mouth. The Spring Festival Gala came in and mouthwash.


    He said, "if you think so, you really deserve the most! I will reward you for your husband ~ "

 Chapter 234

    She gave him a blank look, "so what I have to do is really hard work! You can give it to people without money! Give me your son! "


    "Ha ha, are you waiting for me here? If Ji ruomin is not enough, he has to catch up with Ziran? "


    "Honey, what I want to build is an unprecedented big project. Don''t say two people. After it is really built, I''m afraid 200000 people are not enough. It can not only solve the employment problem of a large part of the unemployed, but also benefit the people all over the world to see a doctor, but also supervise and control the spread and elimination of epidemics, which is a great good thing for the country and the people! " Which of the hospital pharmacies of later generations is not a super large container for the army of employed people?


    They both stood up and went to the back garden for a walk and food to continue the topic.


    Jing Yuan held her hand tightly and said with a slight smile, "Xi''er, did you find it? You''ve changed a lot. You would never say anything that benefits the country and the people... "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. "What do you mean?"


    "I remember at the beginning, your wish was to have no parents'' orders and no royal pressure. It also said that we should have the freedom of fish jumping and birds flying in the sky. One heart wants to leave the center of kingship, one heart wants to leave me... "


    Zhuo Xi remembered and said softly, "well, you had an engagement at that time. I thought you were going to marry Wang Jialin. So I''m heartbroken! I have no choice but to leave you... "


    "Eh? So, were you attracted to me at that time? "


    really? Zhuo Xi looked at the picturesque man beside him. No one has stayed with him for a long time and won''t be moved, right? She thought again and said, "now it seems that all my wishes have come true? Before you went back to the palace, you said that only by standing at the peak of power can you have real freedom. Now, you''re right. If we choose to stay in zhaojiawa for the rest of our lives, although we are free, how can we have the opportunity to realize your great dream of unifying the five countries and establishing a health system? "


    Jing Yuan moved her fingers and shook her fingers. "Well, our dreams are all coming true... In fact, I have a dream that has come true."


    "What dream?"


    "Have a wife who knows and loves each other, have a group of lovely children, and run a harmonious and beautiful family..."


    "If you are an ordinary man, this wish will come true. But you are the king of a country. This wish means that you may have only one wife in your life, not three wives and four concubines, and not enjoy the happiness of the whole people. Are you sure you won''t regret when you are old? " Her eyebrows and eyes are like the moon.


    Jing Yuan said with a slight smile, "if I''m old, I can''t do anything again. What''s the use of regret?"


    He stopped, broke off her shoulder and said to her, "I can''t promise that you won''t have such an idea in your poor life, but since I promise to work with you all my life, I can do it."


    Zhuo Xi looked into his dark eyes as deep as the ink pool and couldn''t move for a long time.


    It took her a long time to remember, "where''s the painter Wang Tingyu?"


    "He was not called into the palace today. What can I do for you? "


    "After two days off, why don''t you call him into the palace and draw a family picture for the three of us?"


    "Why not?!" They held hands again and walked slowly forward.


    "Hey, do you agree to that matter?"


    "Do you still think about the kuyin of datan?"


    "No, I don''t care. I want people and money. It''s hard for a clever woman to make bricks without rice..."


    "Then quickly develop the Xishan villa group..."


    "Oh, why are you so busy..."


    "If you don''t want to be busy, come to the DPRK meeting tomorrow. Throw your ideas to the old guys in the cabinet. There are many people under them. Each person will finish it in minutes..."


    "It seems reasonable... No! Don''t always try to trick me into giving you some advice! I''m going to have a beauty sleep in the morning! No, no! "


    ¡­¡­


    Wuhe stood far away, smiling at the two figures in front of him who were slowly pacing and quarrelling, and sighed, "it''s good!" After three dynasties, he never thought he could meet such a monarch and his wife. He didn''t quarrel or suspect each other. He just relied on each other and planned the future together


    The little pillar on one side heard it and came up to him, "master, what''s good?"


    Five rivers kicked him, "go aside! If you don''t patrol around, don''t let the bad maids sneak in again the other day! Can''t you see that the grove is still lying on the bed after being hit by the board? If there is another one, it''s still two years to say whether you and I can keep our head! "


    "Yes..." the little pillar answered.


    At this time, Wuhe heard the empress calling him in front of him, and immediately jumped up to the empress with a few arrows, "what can I tell you?"


    "My palace asks you, what happened to that inexplicable maid in waiting a few days ago? The palace maids are not allowed to go in and out of the purple Chen hall. How can someone sneak in? " Zhuo Xi asked coldly.


    Who boldly stabbed the queen in front of her? His heart trembled, and he saw the emperor''s hand raised and touched his nose, which was a typical manifestation of what he had done wrong! He glanced at the emperor''s look in surprise. He saw that the emperor looked at him with expectation. His heart trembled again, his mind turned quickly, and he replied, "go back to the queen. Yes, it was the servant''s negligence. He didn''t look at it. He didn''t want to be slipped in by her. " He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued, "I don''t know how many brave palace maids I stopped on weekdays. However, the slaves and several disciples, after all, only have two hands and one eye. Sometimes they can''t stand. How many people covet the emperor! Once in a while, one or two flies fly in... Damn it! Slaves should shoot them directly! "


    He heard the Queen''s sour voice, "is there really so much?"


    He glanced at the admiration and satisfaction on the emperor''s face, bent lower and said firmly, "yes! Once there was a niece daughter of the empress dowager, who was called the head of Yanping County... Those little eunuchs didn''t dare to stop her. The slave stopped her and didn''t let her close to the emperor! "


    Zhuo Xi''s face was half black again. She was impressed by the Yanping county leader. She came to greet the Empress Dowager last month. She happened to play cards with the Empress Dowager and chatted with her. Is she a drunkard, not in wine? She looked at Jing Yuan next to her, snorted and didn''t speak. They are married men, and they still attract bees and butterflies like this!?


    Wuhe could almost imagine that the emperor wanted to laugh and couldn''t laugh. He continued, "empress, the emperor manages everything every day. On weekdays, he will eat in the afternoon. If the empress can come to dinner with the emperor, where will those flies and mosquitoes have the chance to fly in?"


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t hear it and said with a chuckle, "naturally, this palace will come when she is free. It doesn''t have to come every day. With your fly swatter waiting around, you are an old man in the palace again. I don''t feel much at ease in the palace? "


    Wuhe frowned, "yes, yes, thank you for your trust. The slaves must do their best not to let a fly or mosquito fly in. But... "


    "But what?" Zhuo Xi frowned and asked.


    Wuhe''s face was wrinkled into a bitter gourd, "the slaves are gentle. Those small flies, small mosquitoes and so on can be stopped naturally, but they can''t stop those big hungry cats and dogs!"


    Zhuo Xi is alert. Where are the hungry cats and dogs?


    Wuhe glanced at the emperor from the corner of his eye, "since Zisang destroyed the country, the noble women of princes and ministers were regarded as female slaves. They arrived in Kyoto a few days ago and now they all live in the post station. Madam, you are kind-hearted. Last time you sent two to Uncle Pingyang, but there are twenty or thirty people who can''t be disposed of! Soon, I heard that your daughter sent by datan was also on the way. I don''t know how many! The post station in the western suburb of Kyoto is about to stop...... "


    Zhuo Xi was full of black lines and inexplicably shocked, "no, why did so many women send it?" Last time, the two women, Chun Qing, seeing the opportunity, came to her uneasily and said that someone entrusted her mother''s family to deliver a message, saying that their ancestors'' relatives were offered as female slaves, and there was no future. She asked her to help find a home in front of her mother. And because these two noble girls were originally not Liangzi people, later their ancestors went to the territory of the former Zisang to do business. They suffered five state events, so they fell in Zisang, and then their nephew was recommended to be an official. She thought that she was the daughter of the four life officials of the former Zisang, and she wanted to have a good family education, so she rationed it to Uncle Pingyang. Originally, she just wanted to be your concubine. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Pingyang went out of Fuxiang temple. When she saw that, she was angry and gave them as side wives.


    At this time, she remembered that the bureau had a fold a few months ago, saying that some expensive women sent from Junyao city would arrive at the post station in the near future. Jing Hua should have brought them along when she returned to Beijing for the last time. She also brought two boxes of gold and silver jewelry with her. The Bureau asked if they could use these two boxes of gold and silver to temporarily take care of their clothing, food, housing and transportation. At that time, Zhuo Xi saw that there was no need to pay extra money for it, so she immediately approved the word and left it behind.


    She then remembered that one day, Xiao soul came to ask her whether to hold a ceremony to accept female slaves. She has always been very disgusted with the word female slave. She waved her hand and refused. Is it the so-called noble women sent from Junyao city? It''s true that once the son of heaven and a courtier, when Zisang was the king, they were ministers and noble women. Once the country was subjugated, they became female slaves and were sent to the monarch as gifts?


    But why didn''t anyone tell her it was a female slave to them? For her? Or to him? She looked at Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, saying that it had nothing to do with me. A few months ago, you were fully responsible for it.


    Zhuo Xi glared at him. Are you always only responsible for destroying the country and not for dealing with the aftermath? Why are so many women sent to Kyoto? What she doesn''t know is that in this era, for a country, in addition to gold and silver treasure, those noble women are the symbol of property. Those new ministers who are uneasy and undergoing reform should naturally pay tribute to beautiful women, especially famous women, like paying tribute to gold, silver and jewelry.


    She asked, "emperor, what are the new managers of those counties in the former Zisang state? Why did these noble women not stay in China, but become slaves and send them here? "

 Chapter 235

    She always thought that under the power of iron cannon, many counties and cities in the former Zisang state should be liberated peacefully, and most of the original City owners or those in power still remain in their own positions. Worst of all, should he be a deputy?


    Jing Yuan walked slowly with his negative hand forward, "some who sincerely surrendered to my girder can be entrusted with reuse. However, there will still be some recalcitrants, especially some princes and nobles in Junyao city who are unwilling to surrender, so they have to send men to the army and women to become female slaves. This ceremony of escorting and offering slaves is also the practice after the war between the two countries. Don''t take it too seriously. If you don''t want to pay attention, just let them live and die. "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "can they always live in the post station?"


    Jing Yuan didn''t answer and coughed.


    The five rivers behind them immediately reacted and came forward to answer, "if you go back to your mother, according to the rules, the post station can only provide them with food and accommodation for three to five months. When the time comes, they will be recorded in the government as ordinary slaves, and then sent everywhere or sold by the Tingwei."


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t bear to ask Wuhe, "how many such expensive women are there in the post station now?"


    Wuhe said, "as far as the old slave knows, there should be 32 more. If there is no will in the palace, they may be sent to Tingwei''s office to register and dispose of themselves next month. "


    Zhuo Xi said suddenly and coolly, "Wuhe, whose bribe did you accept? How much did you charge? Can this palace have a share? "


    The five rivers end knelt down upright, fell on the ground and said, "mother, slave, damn it! Slave, slave is a cousin outside the palace. He said he had a distant relationship with one of them, so he begged the slave to come and deliver a message for them. "


    Jing Yuan also heard the smell, kicked him angrily and said, "presumptuous! I''ve been with me for so long, but I''m not good at it. I''m getting bolder and bolder. You arranged that palace maid, too! What a mess, dare to say in front of the queen! "


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Jing Yuan. He didn''t deny or question that there was a cousin outside the Wuhe palace? It is reasonable to say that the people around him should check the bottom to use it safely. Is it true that what Wuhe said? So she remembered that Wuhe used to be with King Jing of Wen. Was it true that Wuhe had been Jing Yuan''s people long before then? Otherwise, how to explain that after Jingtai''s death, Wuhe immediately became a nearby supervisor for several years?


    Jing Yuan shook her hand, smiled and whispered in her ear, "Xi''er, don''t guess. Wuhe is actually the Empress Dowager." Otherwise he wouldn''t trust him so much.


    Ah? Zhuo Xi suddenly realized that no wonder the Emperor didn''t question whether he really had a cousin outside the palace. It doesn''t matter whether this cousin really exists. What matters is that the Empress Dowager asked him to pass it in front of them. The Empress Dowager has no intention of inviting her to the palace every day, but what if she doesn''t? Why should the Empress Dowager pay attention to these female slaves?


    Jing Yuan took her hand and continued to walk forward, whispering, "five rivers, you get up first."


    Wuhe looked depressed. He was seen through by the emperor and empress before he started performing. He really didn''t have a sense of achievement.


    Jing Yuan whispered, "the mother family of the Empress Dowager was also an aristocratic family, with many branches in Yudian. I''m afraid some distant relatives begged her in front of the old man. Because of her bad identity, she explained it to Wuhe? "


    Zhuo Xi helped the forehead. After the original Yudian country was divided into five countries, so many aristocratic families were forced to disperse to various countries. Wouldn''t there be a hidden danger? Don''t the monarchs of all countries worry about espionage at all?


    Jing Yuan also said, "although the branches of these aristocratic families are forced to be separated, they are respected and valued by their monarchs based on their deep roots." So it''s all the focus?


    Jing Yuan went on to say, "in fact, the original five countries all came from the same source, and they have a better understanding of the distribution of power in each country and the situation of aristocratic families." So spying on information is meaningless, because I really know it too well. This is why once their force value exceeds the normal level, they can attack Zisang and datan immediately.


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath and suddenly said with a smile, "so even the crown prince of tengju can grow up around you unconsciously? What''s the matter with Yin Rong? "


    Jing Yuan said with a smile, "I don''t know. I found him in wansha city. He explained to me that he had been cheated by one of his father''s imperial concubines since he was born, and was brought up in wansha city by a loyal eunuch. During the battle of wansha City, his loyal servant died of a stray arrow. He volunteered to join the battle and blocked a knife for me. I saw that he was brave to kill the enemy, but his sword technique was messy, so I asked him if he would like to train to be a dark guard. Then I took him back to the training camp to train with others until he stood out and followed me as a dark guard. I never thought he could have such an affair after he went to your side. " Thinking of this, he sighed and said, "younger martial sister hasn''t written to me for a long time, and I don''t know how she is now."


    Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and said with a smile, "the fat boy in her family can already call his mother!" The second month after the hyacinth arrived in tengju, she wrote a letter to Zhuo Xi, saying that she had poisoned all the three wives and six Teng concubines prepared for her prince in the palace, and the other three had eyes. She proposed to leave, and Heping took the burden of releasing her concubine''s schoolbag and left. She was very interested and replied with a detailed process. Unfortunately, she didn''t reply until Xiaoyu''s son sent a gift and brought a letter. The letter only briefly wrote that the fat boy of her family could call his mother, could roll all over the ground, and the news that the Lord of tengju was coming to an end.


    She suddenly remembered this and forgot to talk to the emperor. She hurriedly mended her way, "by the way, her letter also said that the Lord of tengju state is terminally ill and will not live for a few days."


    When was this long letter written by Jing? She sighed slowly


    "I have received this letter for about three or five days..." didn''t he just say that all countries have spies and know each other better about the domestic situation of the five countries? Why doesn''t he even know the news that the Lord of tengju is terminally ill?


    Jing Yuan nodded faintly, indicating that he knew.


    That''s it. Zhuo Xi looked at him in disbelief. How much impact would the death of a country''s leader have on the whole domestic situation? As the crown prince, what kind of situation will Yan Rong face? And is the princess hyacinth about to succeed the queen?


    But think about it. If a great beauty like hyacinth succeeds to the queen and puts on her Fengguan imperial dress to look at the world with pride, she would very much like to fly over and see it with her own eyes. Unfortunately, there is no plane and no video


    She grabbed his arm and whispered in a coquettish wail, "I miss her so much. When shall we go and play with them?"


    Jing Yuan''s eyes brightened, "do you want to go out to play?"


    "Of course! Since I married you, let alone travel around the world, we haven''t even had a honeymoon! As I said last time, if we can''t go out for a stroll and play, the Royal descendants of Tianjia are not as good as ordinary people! State affairs really need to work hard, but do we also need to combine work and rest? Okay? Let''s make a private visit in micro clothes and quietly go to tengju state to see them... "


    Jing Yuan''s heart is itchy and warm. He found that Zhuo Xi treated him differently early. Her treatment of the relationship between the two people not only did not have the ordinary and normal concept of inferiority and superiority, but really placed their positions at the same level and treated them equally. Such discussions are like friends, husband and wife, relatives and family. All the atmosphere she created is plain and warm. There is no calculation, no interest, only happiness, joy and happiness.


    Yes, this is happiness. He had to admit these two words in his heart that he could not believe.


    Jing Yuan coughed softly, and the five rivers that followed him immediately backed away with the people around him until they disappeared into their sight.


    Jing Yuan then pulled her to hold her tightly and whispered, "OK. When we have everything on our hands. We''ll travel around the counties together. "


    Zhuo Xi looked up from his arms and asked, "the matter of dozens of female slaves should be dealt with quickly. Let''s go to the post station to have a look at the rest one day? See how they are? Since the empress mother has asked about this matter, it''s still necessary to give her a proper explanation. " How did you just get off the subject and travel around the world?


    Jing Yuan nodded, took her and began to move on again, saying, "we haven''t gone out for a long time. Oh, by the way, why haven''t you been there lately?


    "Oh, you said, I''m too busy here. Ke min, now she has to take into account the nursing home and the mother and baby hall, and she is already very busy. Originally I wanted her to underwrite my three character classic picture book? Now it seems that even with three heads and six arms, I can''t be busy. No, I want to speed up the cultivation of talent echelons. By the way, if you say that there is a writing carrier called paper, the raw materials are hemp, hay or sawdust, which can replace silk and bamboo slips for writing and painting. It is light and cheap. There is also a printing technique, which can freely combine various Chinese characters and print them on this paper in batches and quickly. Do you think it is useful? "

 Chapter 236

    After talking for a long time, they returned to the bedroom and took a lunch break. His afternoon trip had been cancelled by him, but he had to work in the afternoon. She took the boss''s effort to make him stop fooling around. When she woke up again, she didn''t know what time it was. After asking about the warm spring outside, I knew that it was almost time to apply. After grooming and going back to Ning''an palace, he saw Wuhe bring someone to invite him, "empress, the emperor has asked you to move to the cabinet study."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. As the name suggests, the cabinet study is the place where the emperor and cabinet ministers discuss business. She has never set foot. Is something wrong? She asked, "did the emperor say what it is?"


    Wuhe shook his head and said, "you''ll know when your mother goes."


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "who are there in that study now?"


    Wuhe hesitated for a moment and replied respectfully, "seven ministers of the cabinet and three other study walk among them."


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "does the emperor want you to wait here until the palace wakes up?"


    Wuhe nodded. "The emperor went to the cabinet study for discussion before he was ready. When he left, he ordered the slave to go to the cabinet study as soon as the queen woke up."


    Zhuo Xi was a little ironic. His front foot refused to participate in the discussion of the early and great dynasties, and his back foot set a trap for himself and gave him no chance to refuse. In order to get close to a foreign head of state, I specially participated in a complete set of relevant training for the secretaries of government meetings, and actually worked in the Secretariat of that head of state for a period of time before I found the opportunity to complete the task. She knew that maybe Jing Yuan just invited herself to their regular internal meeting. It happened that today''s agenda might be related to herself. If you put it in modern times, you will also go. It doesn''t matter to participate in the discussion of matters related to yourself. But this is the ancient time when imperial power was supreme. Do you want to go or not? Should I go? Will those cabinet ministers be regarded as the harem to intervene in politics after they go? What are they talking about and how does it relate to themselves? Does it mean the establishment of the health government office? Can''t they write a fold for her approval? After setting such a precedent, what will they do if they ask themselves to attend such a meeting again? For a moment, countless possibilities flashed in her mind.


    Zhuo Xi looked down at her clothes and looked back at the spring warmth. Chunnuan also looked up and down and nodded knowingly, which means that there is no problem with this suit. You can meet foreign ministers. Zhuo Xi shrugged and went to the cabinet study with the warmth of spring.


    When I got to the door of the study, I heard the noise of discussion inside. When Wuhe pushed the door in to report, there was a moment of silence.


    After five rivers came out to make a "please" gesture, Zhuo Xi dressed up, held her head high and walked into the cabinet study with the Spring Festival Gala. It was the first time she entered here and found that the study was a very large assembly room, office and small library. There are bookshelves on all sides, with volumes of slips. In the innermost south, there seems to be a big dragon case, with two little dragons on both sides. There was a large conference table in the middle. At this time, a group of people were sitting around the conference table. When they saw her coming in, they bowed and said, "see the queen." In the voice, there are sincere joy, some can''t hear the calmness of emotion, and some are weak, which shows the disapproval and disapproval in this person''s heart.


    She raised her hand and said faintly, "you are exempt." She saluted to the emperor and said, "the emperor is safe. I don''t know if the emperor asks me to come. What''s the matter?"


    Jing Yuan took a look at the five rivers that followed him. Five rivers immediately cleverly moved a master''s chair and placed it next to the emperor sitting in the middle. The emperor stood up, came over, put his hands on her shoulders and pushed her into a chair. Then he turned to his own seat, pressed his hands and said in a deep voice, "please sit down, ladies."


    Zhuo Xi looked at her and wanted to laugh. How could she look like the leader of a modern meeting! Obviously, he made a big table and chair during the regular meeting in the inner palace, which set a precedent for female officials to sit and reply. Why did he copy it? And why does this conference table look so familiar? When she sat down as like as two peas, she found herself in the same way as the four legged chairs with the pomelo and handrails that sat behind him. This table and chair looked exactly like the big desk set up in the hall of Hou Fu in Guang''an. Is his imitation power too strong? Did you have the posture of a modern office meeting without a teacher? Or is this so-called "wenshanhuihai" like a magic hoop of power, which both ancient and modern people enjoy rather than others?


    The venue was silent and everyone dared not speak. Jing Yuan took a look at Zi Ran. Zi Ran stood up and bowed and replied, "the emperor and his ministers are discussing the first joint examination in seven days. This year''s meeting was announced to the world a month ago. Now 126 people have been recommended by the state and county, and 195 people have given themselves an ultimatum, a total of 321 people. The examination room is temporarily arranged in the open space outside Danyang palace. Just what should happen? How to grade? Please give me some advice. "


    Only 300 people? Zhuo Xi was a little disappointed. She was used to the big exams in future generations, such as the college entrance examination and the national examination, which were all on the scale of millions of people in Ukraine. At first glance, it was a national exam, and only more than 300 people signed up. I don''t know if the state and county screened another batch when recommending it, but the small number of people really didn''t adapt to it. However, considering that this is the first national selection examination in the founding of Daliang and even in this era, many people can''t understand it, hesitate and miss the opportunity, which is also right.


    The scene was silent again. Jing Yuan shook her hand under the table. She sighed, put away her thoughts, recalled the relevant systems of the imperial examination, and replied positively, "this election is to select pillars for the country. Naturally, it is necessary to elect talented people who can govern the world and secure the country. A ruler has its shortcomings and an inch has its strengths. So should a man. Although generalists are selected, those who specialize in one subject can also be treated separately. Therefore, the palace believes that the examination questions should be divided into subjects. Now my girder is full of waste and is waiting for prosperity. My grand plan is like brocade. There is a shortage of talents in military and political affairs. I wonder if the four subjects of classics, history, law and arithmetic can be opened first? Each of the four subjects focuses on the post, supplemented by trial righteousness and current affairs policies, which is enough to investigate the morality and talents of the candidates. " She can''t remember the specific subjects, but these four subjects seem reliable at present?


    Someone even shamelessly asked, "madam, what are the four subjects of classics, history, Dharma and arithmetic?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and embarrassed. There are no four books and five classics in this era, right? She can only vaguely answer, "the classics department is the way to govern the world, the history department focuses on studying the history and learning from the present, the law department naturally chooses the person who knows the criminal law, and the calculation department is the science of physical calculation."


    Xichi, who is already a big Sikou, clapped his hands and said, "people who enforce the law in the prison most avoid the lack of French style and unclear criminal reason. If this selection can select people who know the criminal law, it can also save a lot of teaching effort. I''m looking forward to it. "


    Gongsun Li was already a big Sima, and his face showed appreciation. "If you want to take charge of the chestnut tax Treasury, you must not be confused. Nowadays, there is a shortage of Actuaries in all departments. This method can really meet the needs of Actuaries. Current affairs and policies are the key of general politics, and we must try them. However, the lower officials are stupid and ask for advice from the empress. What is trial righteousness? "


    Trial meaning is the ideological and political subject of later generations! Zhuo Xi smiled, "the so-called righteous person is loyal to the minister, filial to the son of man, less polite and different between men and women; It is not its righteousness to eat when hungry and live when dead. To test righteousness is to take righteousness as the criterion to measure a person''s etiquette, law, benevolence and righteousness. The topic can be measured by stories, such as how to choose when one is faced with the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety, so as to examine the respondent''s mind. "


    Suddenly, there were voices of approval.


    "Your mother is really wise." It was Le Ke of Da Sikong who spoke. He had been thinking about the new weapons and car clothes provided by Zhuo Xi, "arithmetic is well known in the world. But what is lattice physics? "


    Zhuo Xi scolded the old fox secretly. Isn''t this a well-known question?! Although the military academy is under the management of Jianyun, how many talents has the military academy provided for him¡° General Le, you''re welcome! Everything in heaven and earth is known through the use of reason. For example, we all know that pushing by hand is power, but everything has gravity, buoyancy in the water and resistance in the air. If this method is calculated, it can control water and sand in the front, and ship and load both national defense and civil use. In addition, the fireworks that have become popular in Kyoto recently are made of saltpeter and sulfur in a certain proportion. This principle of mutual generation and mutual restriction is also the cornerstone of lattice physics. To develop Daliang, lattice physics is a strong driving force. "


    As soon as these words came out, they all thought of the powerful magic gun, looked solemn, and then gradually filled with expectation and excitement.


    Jing Yuan said, "I''m cool and build a country, focusing on the people. Now, when I open the imperial examination, I want to break the barrier of "no poor family in the top grade and no noble family in the bottom grade", and do my best to accept people of insight from all over the world to serve the country and make great achievements. Thus, the four subjects were written by Lu Bingzheng, Yan Xingcheng, Xi Aiqing and Le Aiqing. Secretary of state sun Shiyi will give the test! " An invisible air of majesty rushed to the audience. Such a decisive look was hard to see in Zhuo Xi''s ordinary days. She couldn''t help glancing at him. I even participated in the decision of the imperial examination, which has affected future generations for thousands of years. A few years later, I don''t know what the imperial examination system will look like? Will those "Fan Jin" hate her as a beginner?


    The three present immediately got up together and looked respectful. As for the other two, Zhuo Xi is not familiar with them. It is estimated that they are famous scholars of classics and history, not in the cabinet.

 Chapter 237

    Gongsun Li sat down and stood up again. He arched his hands and said, "I have one more thing to ask your mother."


    Zhuo Xi scolded again in her heart, but she said politely, "Lord Gongsun, please."


    "I heard that there is a great treasure in the overseas fairy mountain, named paper. It is as light as silk, but it is flat and smooth. Ink printed on it can protect it from corruption for thousands of years; I also heard that there is a printing treasure, which can print books in batch, benefiting the world. Do you know these two treasures? "


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Zi Ran. She said to the emperor at noon that it must not have been said by the emperor. Then the only possibility is that there is only Zi Ran.


    Zi Ran heard cold sweat. He often went in and out of Ning''an palace, and made friends with Ji ruomin next to the queen. He had a relatively greater chance of accepting new ideas, so he provoked Gongsun Li to talk to him often. In order to get out of his mouth what new ideas the empress has, he doesn''t hide it. He thinks what the empress thinks is a major event that benefits the country and the people. Why hide it?


    However, he never imagined that Gongsun Li would ask the empress in such a public meeting. Didn''t he sell him in front of him? That''s too embarrassing, isn''t it?


    Le Ke asked, "what is paper? What is printing? Why is this called the second treasure? "


    Gongsunli said, "it is said that paper is made of numb grass scraps. It is light, flat, low-cost and easy to carry. It is a treasure for copying and inheriting books! Printing is said to be a secret technique, which can quickly print words and pictures on paper and silk in batches! If I get these two treasures, the knowledge of the world can spread rapidly. It is really a great blessing for scholars and refined scholars all over the world. "


    Zhuo Xi thought he was talking about the health government office. Unexpectedly, he was talking about the imperial examination. Now he mentioned papermaking and printing. He nodded: "there are these two treasures. The palace originally planned to print the use methods of drugs on paper one by one, so that people can buy and use them. Only then did it come to the idea that these two treasures can be realized. It''s a pity... "She sighed," I just have Neo Confucianism and chemistry in my dynasty. These two secrets are based on Neo Confucianism and supplemented by chemistry. I''m afraid no one in my dynasty can undertake this great task! "


    Gongsun Li got out of his seat and bowed down on the ground. "Madam, I don''t have talent. I''d like to be a madam. I''ll look for talented people and different people all over the world. I beg her to pass these two skills on to my officials. Once the art of paper printing is solved, all scholars in the world will benefit from it, and all literati in the world will feel the kindness of their mother. "


    Zhuo Xi snorted coldly. She simply didn''t do it. Since he asked, why couldn''t she ask¡° Lord Gongsun, get up first. As for people''s birth, old age, illness and death, Lord Gongsun thinks which of the four is the most important thing that can only be fought but can not be forced? "


    Gongsun Li was stunned. "The last thing a person can choose is his own birth; As you get older, you can''t resist; If death is coming, you can''t force it. What my mother means is suffering from illness? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "a doctor can cure a disease, but he can''t live. The word "disease" can really be asked for at most. "


    Hum, it''s cold. A rich family can get a good doctor and ask for the most. If the poor people are not well clothed and hungry, once they get sick, they can only obey their fate. How can they ask? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a light smile, "there are few medical centers now. In the city of huanghuang Kyoto, there are only 18 medicine shops with a population of hundreds of thousands. The number of doctors is limited, the fees for medical consultation are quite huge, and there are few famous doctors, which is difficult to find. However, if one day, the medicine shops of medical centers are all over the counties of Daliang States, people can buy a pair of patent medicine for common cold for only a few Wen without seeing a doctor. If there are slightly serious patients, you can also go to a hospital for treatment at will, and the cost can also be within the range of affordability. Can you believe it? " If she encounters any difficult and complicated diseases and the cost is huge, it is beyond her control. Even in the modern 21st century, there are all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous diseases that can not be suppressed.


    Xichi was silent.


    He Qian stood up excitedly and said, "what your mother said is true?"


    Zhuo Xi said he didn''t know him. "Naturally, it''s true. I don''t know what adults call it?"


    "He Qian, an official in the lower house. Please give me your advice. "


    "It''s Lord he. For example, if we combine the medicine shop of the whole Daliang medical school to summarize and screen out the diseases that ordinary people are prone to, and adjust one to three prescriptions with the widest applicability for these diseases to make ready-made drugs. If people suffer from head fever, they can buy medicine for symptoms with only a few Wen. The symptomatic process is to judge according to the symptoms and instructions, and bear the responsibility. These prescription drugs should be common. Even if they are not right, they should not have other negative effects. If you can''t judge, you can come to see a doctor. If the doctor judges that the prescription of patent medicine can be used, he can also directly supply the patent medicine, eliminating the cumbersome task of grasping and decocting the medicine, and only charging a meager fee for diagnosis and patent medicine... "


    "Everyone is different. How can we use the same prescription?"


    "This palace has just said that these proprietary medicines are only applicable to the common symptoms of ordinary people. If they are not applicable, they should seek medical treatment separately." The experience of later generations has proved that the universality of Chinese patent medicine is very strong.


    "What if there is a severe case and there is no patent medicine available?"


    "If it is not suitable for proprietary medicine, it is natural to fill the medicine according to the prescription. Patent medicine is not suitable for difficult and severe patients. If you need to stay in bed for treatment, you need special personnel to care... "


    "The most important thing for medical people is life. How to ensure that there are no mistakes?"


    "Then we need to carry out professional training in Professional Colleges... There are nursing colleges for nurses and medical schools for doctors. They recruit students from all over the country, regardless of gender. This palace of nursing college believes that women should be the main body. The school system ranges from three to seven years. The courses studied include dozens of courses such as pharmacy, Fundamentals of pathology and nursing practice. You should personally participate in the practical test of the medicine shop of the medical museum. You can take the post only after graduation through learning and practice... "


    "You still have to pay for medical treatment. What if people still can''t afford to see a doctor?"


    "The palace believes that the medical insurance system can be established for people with nationality. You only need to pay a certain proportion of the premium when you receive the salary every month, and you can enjoy a certain amount of free medical care within a year. Those who have the ability can pay more hospitalization funds, serious illness funds and so on, which will be used by the health government office to ensure that patients have access to medical treatment... "Zhuo Xi talked eloquently and explained in detail the medical system, hospital system, medical college, nursing college, medical insurance system and other systems constructed in his mind. Seeing the look of the people below, Zhuo Xi was relieved and stopped.


    The audience was silent.


    "There is a doctor..." a voice muttered, "if you use the same method, can you have a sense of security for the elderly?"


    Zhuo Xi didn''t notice where the voice came from. When she heard the speech, she was only refreshed. "Naturally, let each income earner establish a separate account of his own and pay a part of the pension when he receives the monthly money every month. After paying for a certain number of years, if you can''t work at a certain age, you can get a monthly pension from the government... "She just said a few words, but she knew that it really needs a lot of human and material resources to fully implement and cover the whole country, which can not be achieved in a short time.


    No one has a voice


    Everyone was shocked


    The expression on gongsunli''s face can no longer be described as surprise or shock. As a superior minister, he naturally knows that such a set of system that benefits the people all over the world is not only time-consuming, money-consuming and labor-consuming. However, he came from a noble family. Although he felt it necessary to solve the pension and medical problems of ordinary people, he did not feel very urgent. Moreover, today''s civilians who are truly good citizens generally earn their living by farming, and only those who can get monthly money are craftsman workers and a small number of slave people.


    However, he Qianyuan is the craftsman in charge of the palace. He deals with those craftsman slaves every day. He deeply knows their suffering and difficulties caused by illness and old age. Just now he couldn''t help murmuring and was deeply shocked by the Queen''s bold imagination. Having a sense of security for the elderly and a sense of medical care for the sick... Once upon a time, when I thought of these things, I only felt that they were extremely difficult. I couldn''t think about them at all. It was impossible to think about them. But why, after the Queen''s understatement, seems to have a great possibility?


    Gongsun Li looked at the emperor with a clear look on his face. He knew that the emperor must have known the Queen''s plans and plans in advance. He couldn''t help feeling angry and rushed up. Why didn''t the emperor mention such a great plan to benefit the country and the people? No wonder my mother just wanted to emphasize numeracy... Without the foundation of numeracy, these funds can''t be guaranteed. Isn''t it a confused account?


    He Qian looked at the emperor''s look and Gongsun Li''s look. He was even more angry. "Papermaking and printing benefit only scholars all over the world. If the health insurance system is established, everyone will benefit from it! How can Lord Gongsun give up the end and chase the end? " He became more and more excited when he listened to such a wide collection of merits and virtues. He also knew that the emperor must have known this theory for a long time, but he didn''t mention it at all, but how dare he challenge the emperor? He had to point the spear at Gongsun Li.


    Gongsun Li feels his nose. He knows, too, okay? He looked at he Qian with a smile. "It''s better to hand over such a project that benefits the country and the people to Lord he. Why?"


    He Qian thought for a moment, got up and arched his hands. "Minister, I''m willing to work for the emperor and empress."


    Zhuo Xi looked at him in surprise. Although it was not a long time since she came to this era, according to her observation, the status of ordinary people was very low and weak, slavery had not been abolished, and it was the ideal of the era of Democratic Republic to recover from illness and have a doctor. What productivity can support such a huge expenditure system in a slave country that has just tasted the sweetness of new weapons? Rely on their proud agricultural technology? The handicraft industry and the tertiary industry have not developed much. The national wealth now only depends on the limited treasure and the newly incorporated Treasury wealth of Zisang and datan. The tax system of basic agriculture has pressed ordinary people out of breath, not to mention asking them to pay pensions and medical insurance every month?

 Chapter 238

    Unexpectedly, Zhuo Xi said with a bitter smile, "Lord he, a journey of a thousand miles is a small step. Don''t be too hasty. Just now, Lord Xichi also said that many people are still dressed, body and food. Not to mention those slaves without freedom, they are ordinary craftsmen and farmers. They also have a single income, low output, a strong country but not rich people. How to realize this insurance system? Only when the country is strong and the people are rich and vigorously improve the income level of the people can the people have surplus money to pay this medical insurance and social security and seek the future for themselves. "


    Cao Jia was very interested in this, "how can I vigorously improve the income level of the people?"


    Zhuo Xi helps the forehead. How big a proposition is this? It''s not something she can do alone, okay? This is driven by the natural law of the development of social productive forces,... Which border does this topic go to today? However, looking at the people below, her eyes were full of expectation, and she could not bear to disappoint them. After pondering for a moment, she said, "can anyone know the use effect of several new farm tools that the palace asked Kou anding to report to the imperial court last year? What practical help? "


    It''s very clear to Gongsun, "just say that the appliance called plow invented by my mother has greatly improved the speed of farmers'' cultivation. In the past, a person could only cultivate half an mu of land a day at most. After farming with a cow plow, he could cultivate more than 20 mu a day. Other utensils are also very helpful to farmers. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "lattice physics is the first productive force in the future. Replacing manpower with utensils and animals will liberate manpower from manual work and naturally do more other things. Isn''t wealth created from human diligence? "


    Gongsunli and others were stunned. They never thought about it


    Gongsun Li murmured, "lattice physics is the first productive force in the future?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and couldn''t let the topic go further. He hurried back. "The palace thinks that the first step we can do now is to lay out the drug system. Only by taking this step well can our chain medical centers be slowly recognized by the people..." only when the medical stores of the medical centers have developed, can there be a market for medical schools and nursing schools that train professional talents


    He Qian said in a deep voice, "I will try my best, but I will not disgrace my life."


    He Qian was so confident that he took over the big project. Zhuo Xi was secretly surprised. Seeing that he was only in his early thirties, he was already a second life situ. It can be seen that he also had extraordinary ability. She glanced at Jing Yuan. He understood and said, "he Aiqing has this heart. I''m very relieved. This matter is very important. Lord Ziran has been running around for a long time. Why don''t you let him help you? " Jing Yuan was also shocked. He didn''t know how many surprises his Empress had waiting for him


    He Qian was overjoyed. He stood on his seat and bowed to the end. Then he sat down and said, "I have another request. Please allow the emperor and the queen."


    Zhuo Xi glared at him and begged him not to come to her, okay? Don''t you see the emperor next to you?


    Jing Yuan didn''t care and asked gently, "tell me."


    He Qian said, "previously, it was said that the imperial examination opened four subjects of classics, history and calculation. From the perspective of medical officials, it would be better to add another subject, medicine. After selecting talents, officials can also start to prepare many matters for the health Yamen."


    Jing Yuan said, "the health office was initiated by the empress. Since then, the empress has taken charge of all matters of the health office. If Lord he has something to do, he can directly report to the empress. "


    Everyone was shocked.


    He Qian also said, "emperor, this matter is related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate."


    "I said that we should share the world and rule peace with the queen. Since this matter is related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood and is designed and built by the queen, no one knows the problems and requirements better than her. The queen is responsible for organizing, operating and supervising. Why not? "


    Gongsun Li had something to say. Jing Yuan waved his big hand, "I have made up my mind. You don''t have to say more."


    "Yes, sir." be all in one story.


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "one of the ways of medicine has always been very few practitioners. Don''t say that few of these 321 people are practicing medicine, that is, they are widely known all over the world and let those who are willing to give themselves an ultimatum. I''m afraid it''s too late to select and recommend them for compilation in these seven days. According to this palace, this matter still needs to be slowly planned. "


    He Qian was convinced. "The empress is reasonable. The lower official is anxious."


    Gongsun Li said, "I have a suggestion. I don''t know if I can say it?"


    Jing Yuan looked at him and nodded imperceptibly.


    Gongsun Li said, "the minister once again requested that the queen attend our regular cabinet meetings on a regular basis."


    Jing Yuan didn''t answer and looked at Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi waved his hand and immediately refused, "how can that be done? The cabinet discusses all the major events of the imperial court, and the harem cannot interfere in politics."


    "The empress is so talented. If she doesn''t give advice and suggestions on state affairs, won''t she be buried?" Gongsun Li finally put forward this suggestion hidden in his heart countless times in front of his mother. He never thought that the queen turned it down. How can he be reconciled?


    Zhuo Xi stood up and said with a smile, "don''t bury it, don''t bury it, the palace just needs to eat, drink and sleep well. Keep talking, keep talking. The division of the imperial examination was just nonsense. Listen to it, you can''t take it to heart. " If you don''t go now, when will you stay? As for the health government office, I have no objection.


    She turned to Jing Yuan and asked, "emperor, can I go back to the palace?"


    Jing Yuan drew a very shallow arc from the corner of his mouth, instantly recovered his expressionless look, and nodded, "queen, please come back."


    Ten people in the hall stood up, bowed their hands respectfully and said in unison, "send off the queen." The voice is consistent and sincere.


    Zhuo Xi walked out of the door of his study, relieved to see the warmth of spring waiting on the side.


    Gongsun Li sat down with the crowd, but he did not give up looking at the emperor who looked up at the head, and muttered, "emperor -"


    Jing Yuan looked at him expressionless. "The empress can''t get up in the morning. Generally, she is still free at this time in the afternoon."


    Gongsun Li is very happy. This means that if the regular cabinet meetings are scheduled in the afternoon, it is possible to invite the queen? But looking at her talking just now, it seemed that all the major events of the national economy and the people''s livelihood were worthless in front of her, and there was a sense of pride in her heart.


    He Qian was overjoyed. He stood on his seat and bowed to the end. Then he sat down and said, "I have another request. Please allow the emperor and the queen."


    Zhuo Xi glared at him and begged him not to come to her, okay? Don''t you see the emperor next to you?


    Jing Yuan didn''t care and asked gently, "tell me."


    He Qian said, "previously, it was said that the imperial examination opened four subjects of classics, history and calculation. From the perspective of medical officials, it would be better to add another subject, medicine. After selecting talents, officials can also start to prepare many matters for the health Yamen."


    Jing Yuan said, "the health office was initiated by the empress. Since then, the empress has taken charge of all matters of the health office. If Lord he has something to do, he can directly report to the empress. "


    Everyone was shocked.


    He Qian also said, "emperor, this matter is related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood. I''m afraid it''s inappropriate."


    "I said that we should share the world and rule peace with the queen. Since this matter is related to the national economy and the people''s livelihood and is designed and built by the queen, no one knows the problems and requirements better than her. The queen is responsible for organizing, operating and supervising. Why not? "


    Gongsun Li had something to say. Jing Yuan waved his big hand, "I have made up my mind. You don''t have to say more."


    "Yes, sir." be all in one story.


    Zhuo Xi said slowly, "one of the ways of medicine has always been very few practitioners. Don''t say that few of these 321 people are practicing medicine, that is, they are widely known all over the world and let those who are willing to give themselves an ultimatum. I''m afraid it''s too late to select and recommend them for compilation in these seven days. According to this palace, this matter still needs to be slowly planned. "


    He Qian was convinced. "The empress is reasonable. The lower official is anxious."


    Gongsun Li said, "I have a suggestion. I don''t know if I can say it?"


    Jing Yuan looked at him and nodded imperceptibly.


    Gongsun Li said, "the minister once again requested that the queen attend our regular cabinet meetings on a regular basis."


    Jing Yuan didn''t answer and looked at Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi waved his hand and immediately refused, "how can that be done? The cabinet discusses all the major events of the imperial court, and the harem cannot interfere in politics."


    "The empress is so talented. If she doesn''t give advice and suggestions on state affairs, won''t she be buried?" Gongsun Li finally put forward this suggestion hidden in his heart countless times in front of his mother. He never thought that the queen turned it down. How can he be reconciled? He looked at other cabinet ministers and hoped that they would make a joint statement.


    Zhuo Xi stood up and said with a smile, "don''t bury it, don''t bury it, just eat, drink and sleep well. You can continue to talk, continue to talk. The division of the imperial examination was just nonsense. Listen to it, you can''t take it to heart. " If you don''t go now, when will you stay? As for the health government office, I have no objection.


    She turned to Jing Yuan and asked, taking a deep breath and smiling, "emperor, can I go back to the palace?"


    Jing Yuan drew a very shallow arc from the corner of his mouth, instantly recovered his expressionless look, and nodded, "queen, please come back."


    Ten people in the hall stood up, bowed their hands respectfully and said in unison, "send off the queen." The voice is consistent and sincere.


    Zhuo Xi walked out of the door of his study, relieved to see the warmth of spring waiting on the side. This cabinet study must be included in the blacklist of their future footprints!


    Gongsun Li sat down with the crowd, but he did not give up looking at the emperor who looked up at the head, and muttered, "emperor -"


    Jing Yuan looked at him expressionless. "The empress can''t get up in the morning. Generally, she is still free at this time in the afternoon."


    Gongsun Li is very happy. This means that if the regular cabinet meetings are scheduled in the afternoon, it is possible to invite the queen?

 Chapter 239

    Approaching the Double Ninth Festival on September 9, Zhuo Xi originally wanted to ask the emperor for a grace to take a day off. On September 9, she accompanied the Empress Dowager to climb the mountain. Who knows, when she said this at dinner, the Empress Dowager shouted that her waist and legs hurt and she didn''t want to climb the mountain.


    So the Empress Dowager sent a post to several older sisters and asked them to come to the palace on September 9.


    When it was time for lunch, Zhuo Xi felt that out of politeness, she should show her face and say hello to the elders. So I asked someone to talk to the emperor and drove to Ci''an palace with spring warmth.


    After entering the Ci''an palace, there was a lot of laughter. The Empress Dowager saw Zhuo Xi come in, followed by mother Wu holding the Grand Prince, and couldn''t close her mouth.


    Zhuo Xi saluted the Empress Dowager and said hello.


    Those life women also got up and saluted Zhuo Xi.


    There are several she knows, such as Mrs. Chang''an and Mrs. Yuanyang. But there are still several old ladies who are not public secretaries. They only had some friendship with the Empress Dowager when they were young. Zhuo Xi only felt familiar, but she couldn''t tell her identity. The Empress Dowager also introduced her one by one.


    After a brief introduction, mother Wu came forward with the eldest prince in her arms and asked the Empress Dowager to say hello. By the way, she also asked the elders in the seat to say hello. These old ladies stood up one after another to return the gifts. Most of them touched the gadgets and gave them to meet. If they were not prepared for the moment, they also took off their jade pendant and handed it over.


    As soon as Zhuo Xi''s eyes were swept, chunnuan came forward with a smile and thanked the elders for the great prince.


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "Xiao yu''er searched everyone once when he came. It can be seen that he can make money!"


    Everyone laughed.


    "Come on, Xi''er, hold Xiao yu''er and sit here." The Empress Dowager patted the seat beside her and greeted Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi took the big prince in Wu''s mother''s hand, moved Lian Bu gently, and intimately put Xiao yu''er into the Empress Dowager''s arms. Only then did she sit down on a small soft stool.


    The Empress Dowager held Xiao yu''er in her arms, "Yo, this fat boy is a lot heavier. In a few days, grandma will not be able to hold you. "


    "Look what your mother said. You are now in good health. Xi''er thinks you''re just lazy and don''t want to climb the mountain. "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "Xi''er, you can''t talk nonsense in front of so many old sisters." The Empress Dowager put Xiao yu''er next to her seat and looked at him lying on the wide seat with small short legs. She was really happy.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the elders below with a smile and said, "you are all elders, but don''t be too formal."


    A lady said, "no, let''s see. The Empress Dowager''s body is strong. When the sun is good, you should go out and walk more. "


    Another said, "the great prince is well-developed and well raised. He is white and fat. It looks strong and can be loved. "


    Zhuo Xi noticed that there was a woman staring at Xiao yu''er, and her look seemed to be wrong. She looked at Mrs. Ann Beth, the elder beside the woman, and gave her a wink. Mrs. Chang''an Patty understood, glanced at the woman, quietly touched her with her elbow and said, "Mrs. Wu, what''s the matter with you? What a fool. But what''s wrong? "


    Mrs. Wu looked back and said with an embarrassed smile, "no, it''s nothing. I just think of our wandering grandson." He looked a little sad.


    Mrs. Chang''an looked at the look of the Empress Dowager and Zhuo Xi. Seeing that they didn''t look unhappy, she followed her words, "what did you say? How can the Wu family have a grandson who is out of town? " Although the Wu family''s official position is not obvious and she comes from a merchant, the old lady of the Wu family also has a small friendship with the Empress Dowager. Although she is not an aristocratic family, she is also a prominent family. Why can''t she let her grandchildren live outside?


    Mrs. Wu''s eyes got a little wet and reluctantly smiled, "Hey, it''s a long story. There are shrews at home, there are shrews at home. I''m afraid it will pollute the Empress Dowager''s ears. Don''t let this spoil everyone''s fun. "


    Zhuo Xi heard it clearly, but she didn''t force it. When the Empress Dowager introduced her just now, she introduced the old lady of the Wu family as the grandmother of Wu Sheng, a scholar and senior doctor of the Ministry of punishment. She carefully recalled that Wu Sheng seemed to be the only one in politics in the Wu family. She didn''t hear that Wu Sheng had any other uncles and nephews in the court hall. On the contrary, his wife family was very prominent and was the apple of Yan Xingcheng, the young teacher of dahonglu.


    This little episode will soon pass. The Empress Dowager talked about several school-age CHILDES of the scholar family. The old ladies immediately began to introduce their relatives and nephews like chicken blood.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t speak. It was funny to hear that. The empress really didn''t miss any chance to be a matchmaker. Now I don''t know which woman is going to start dating?


    Just talking and laughing, Mammy Su came into the house with a happy face and reported, "report to the Empress Dowager and empress. The long princess''s house sent someone to report the good news."


    The Empress Dowager was stunned, "which long Princess House?" Since Jing Yuan became emperor, the long princess has also been promoted one level automatically and become the long princess.


    Mother Su said, "ouch," look, the old slave is happy. It''s Princess Jing Mo''s house. "


    The Empress Dowager immediately said with a smile, "please come in quickly. Everyone is here today, which saves them from running to report the good news! "


    "Yes!" Mother Su smiled, turned back, and soon came in. A little daughter-in-law in jujube red brocade came in. "I see the Empress Dowager and the empress dowager, and I see all the ladies and wives..."


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "don''t be too polite. Tell me quickly. What do you want to report?"


    The little daughter-in-law was very nervous and her tongue was knotted. "Princess Chang, Princess Chang started last night. Just half an hour ago, she gave birth to the eldest son on Christmas day. Mother and son are safe. "


    As soon as she heard this, the Empress Dowager couldn''t close her mouth. "It''s really a great joy, a great joy! Mammy Su, reward quickly! In addition, find out the red coral peach forest screen in AI''s library, and send two excellent centenarian ginseng to the long princess''s house, and ask her to take good care of her baby! "


    With a smile, Mammy Su took the daughter-in-law back.


    The people congratulated the Empress Dowager in unison.


    The Empress Dowager smiled happily, "this year is really a happy year!" Asked Zhuo Xi again, "Jing Mo is born, and Jing Qian is estimated to be soon?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "isn''t it? They have been there one after another... Just look. I''m afraid there will be another happy event in a few days! You should count the good things in your library! "


    Everyone laughed.


    After lunch, they drank another cup of tea and talked for a while. When the Empress Dowager wanted to rest, all the old men left.


    Zhuo Xi returned to Ning''an palace in a soft sedan. Xiao yu''er had been held back by mother Wu to drink milk and rest. When she arrived at the door, she saw Mrs. Wu standing at the door with a young daughter-in-law waiting.


    Zhuo Xi sank her face and got off the soft sedan chair. Xia Yi came and saluted hurriedly, "empress, Mrs. Wu has just come. The maid asked her to wait in the banquet room. She refused to say anything..."


    Mrs. Wu immediately knelt down with her daughter-in-law behind her, "see the queen. I''m here to apologize."


    Zhuo Xi was a little unhappy. Her business was arranged in advance. She had never been stopped at the door like this. It seemed that she wanted to stop the driver to avenge her grievance. As she walked forward, she said faintly, "excuse me. If anything, come in and talk about it. "


    When he got to the main hall, he sat down. Lao Fu Wu and his daughter-in-law knelt in front of the queen again. "I''m here to ask for forgiveness from the queen."


    Zhuo Xi picked up her tea cup and took a sip of tea. "Where did old lady Wu start?"


    "I just lost my courtesy in front of the Empress Dowager and bumped into the empress dowager, the Empress Dowager and the Grand Prince. I was terrified and came to apologize."


    Zhuo Xi smiled coldly, "since it''s a courtesy lost in front of the empress dowager, how can you come to our palace to apologize? Are you in the wrong place, or do you think this palace is better than the Empress Dowager? "


    Mrs. Wu''s body trembled on the ground and murmured, "no, no, I dare not."


    Zhuo Xi thought a little and asked in a deep voice, "that is to ask to come to the palace, but it has something to do with the wandering grandson you said?"


    Mr. Wu raised his face, already full of tears, choked and said, "your mother''s eyes." With that, she glanced at her daughter-in-law.


    The daughter-in-law beside her also fell on the ground and said, "go back to your mother. I''m Yan, the wife of Wu Sheng, a senior doctor of the criminal scholar. Some words are inappropriate for my mother-in-law. Can I answer them on my behalf? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "get up first and speak slowly."


    After thanking Yan for their kindness, Mrs. Wu and Yan stood up with shaking hands.


    Yan replied, "my Lord is the third in the Wu family. Speaking of it, this is also the housework of the Wu family. However, the Wu family only has my master who has a foothold in the court and can find an opportunity to say a few words. So the sister-in-law entrusted her concubine and her mother to plead with her mother by entering the palace. Uncle Wu has been walking around in a layman''s shop all year round. A few years ago, he collected a concubine in Jiangnan. Because the Wu family has been struggling with their children, the sister-in-law is also empty. After learning that the concubine was pregnant, he happily took her back to Kyoto to raise her baby for childbirth. Unexpectedly, when the concubine was in labor, she had a little quarrel with her sister-in-law and disappeared from home. After several visits, the Wu family found her whereabouts recently. They also learned that the concubine had given birth to her son and was raised outside. Mother, I''m really worried. Ask your mother to decide and let the blood of the Wu family recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. "


    Zhuo Xi became more and more confused. This is the Wu family''s housework. What does it have to do with her? Why did the Wu family come to apologize? She was wary.


    The spring warmth on one side also nervously clenched the pen holder in his hand. She saw the empress''s eyes glancing over and winked at her in awe.

 Chapter 240

    Does this concubine know herself? Zhuo Xi''s brain hole suddenly opened. The story really sounded familiar.


    She winked at chunnuan again.


    Chunnuan asked softly, "Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu, where is the concubine you said now?"


    Yan lowered his head and said softly, "I heard that she presided over a health care center and a mother and baby center, and lived like wind and water. But the three-year-old child, after all, is the blood of the Wu family. Her mother-in-law really can''t bear to let him wander away. How can the Wu family not let their close relatives recognize their ancestors and return home? "


    Zhuo Xi''s tea hand was steady and said with a calm smile, "since that''s the case, you can talk to his mother about how to come to our palace to apologize?"


    Old lady Wu and Yan''s faces showed an embarrassed look. Yan looked at his mother-in-law and said, "my family sent someone to beg her, but she ignored her."


    Zhuo Xi took another sip of tea and said in a deep voice, "you still need to Tie Ling people to solve the bell. I''m afraid the palace can''t help you with this. After all, it''s the Wu family''s housework. You''d better go back. "


    Mrs. Wu looked pale and shaky.


    The Yan family did not insist. In fact, she knew in her heart that it was the Wu family''s housework after all, although her flesh and blood relatives were greater than heaven. The Wu family only occupied the word "reason" of flesh and blood close relatives, but who said that the empress must help reason or not? I thought that Ke min had an unusual friendship with the empress, so I wanted to ask her to stand in front of the empress and say a good word or two, but they didn''t think about it. Where can the Wu family get such a big face to help the empress? On friendship, how can the Wu family compare with Ke min, who has lived on the empress these years? Besides, when Ke min was driven out of the house, although he was not present, he also heard a lot of gossip. How could such a strong woman come back to the Wu family again? How could the Wu family have the face to beg to come to the palace when something like that happened? But my sister-in-law has been begging her mother-in-law to come by herself. It''s good not to annoy the empress. It seems that the empress will not lend a helping hand, but she should not remember what stumbling blocks the Wu family. This is the best ending. I''ve done my best, and I''m worthy of their Wu family.


    Yan helped Mrs. Wu to kneel down on her good-bye ceremony. Then she helped Mrs. Wu to go out shakily.


    As soon as they left, chunnuan said angrily, "unexpectedly, sister Ke min is from the Wu family! The Wu family is a little shameless! I don''t think sister Ke min would have died if she hadn''t met the queen that day? How could a person with a heart like sister Ke min run away from home when she was giving birth for a quarrel? Besides, the child is almost three years old. The Wu family just let people find it. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world? "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead and said, "please invite Ke min into the palace to talk in two days. It happens that the palace also has something to discuss with her." Did the Wu family really have no brains? Do they dare to reason in front of themselves because they think the Wu family has occupied the words of their blood and flesh relatives? Still want to say something in front of Ke min? Will you help me or not? I don''t know what''s in their head!


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Ke min actually has some chest tightness recently.


    Even more so today.


    It''s not because she has to take care of the nursing home and the mother and baby hall. It''s not because she''s tired of taking care of the naughty treasure day and night. But because Dabao was watched.


    She doesn''t know how he found him.


    On that day, Labei, Dabao''s personal servant girl, ran in panic with Dabao outside the door and shouted, "madam! Madam! "


    At that time, she was buried in accounting. She scolded her without raising her head. "Why have you been with me for so long and don''t understand the rules!"


    Lamei Qiang pressed down the fear in his heart and stood quietly waiting with Dabao in his arms. Until Ke min stopped his flying fingers on the keyboard and carefully wrote down a string of numbers on the bamboo slips next to him, he looked up at Chimonanthus and asked, "what happened that made you so ignorant?"


    Lamei just put it down, the treasure in her arms. Dabao staggered to his mother on the ground. She said in a panic, "madam, just when the maid was walking outside the door with Dabao in her arms, a thin man of about 30 looked aside for a while and suddenly came up to hold Dabao. The maidservant was frightened, so she quickly brought him back. "


    Ke min stood up with a tight heart.


    Dabao didn''t know what had happened. He thought his mother was going to meet him. He ran to his mother''s arms more happily and shouted "mother, hug."


    Ke min hugged him and kissed him on the cheek before asking, "honey, is someone talking to you today?"


    Bao''er stared at her big black eyes, nodded excitedly and said, "yes! When bao''er went out, he said hello to Uncle Yang at the door. He said bao''er is getting better and better! Uncle Xiaoqiang, the noodle seller on the corner, pinched a noodle who looked very similar to me and asked me whether I wanted to buy it by myself or by others. I said I already had me at home. Why buy another one for me? It''s better to let others buy me back and love me... "Dabao replied eloquently. He broke his hand and talked about the index until he talked about the seventh person." when I get back to the door, the gatekeeper will give me a bag of ginger candy. Bao won''t eat sugar. I heard that too much sugar will decay my teeth. There was a very thin looking uncle who suddenly came up and called my name. Mother, does he know me? Why did he know my name was Dabao? He said, bao''er doesn''t like ginger candy. What does bao''er like to eat? He said he would take bao''er to buy what bao''er wanted to eat. I''m not fooled! Bao''er told him that his mother said, "you can''t eat anything from strangers!" After finishing a long speech, he looked at his mother with bright and black eyes, as if to say, "Mom, am I fierce?"


    The man asked, "do you feel uneasy when you see Lamei?"


    Lamei said, "tall and thin, with a long face and nose, handsome and gentle eyes, it looks harmless. He was dressed in a royal blue brocade robe and a jade and gold crown. But it''s strange. It should be a jade hairpin on the jade and gold crown, but there is a plain bamboo hairpin in the middle of the hair crown in the maid''s hair room. "


    Ke min shook her body and almost couldn''t hold the baby in her arms. She quickly put Dabao on the ground, patted him on the head and let him play in the room.


    She asked anxiously, "wintersweet. What did he say? "


    Lamei stroked her chest and said, "the maidservant was frightened to see that he didn''t say two words and wanted to hold bao''er. Where dare you talk to him? There are too many photos of flowers these days. I have to guard against them. "


    Ke min is a little lost. Is it him? How did he get here? Why is he still wearing that plain bamboo hairpin?


    Two days later, Chimonanthus praecox came into the house and said, "madam, the man came again last time. This time he didn''t mean to hold the baby, but sent a thing to bao''er. The maidservant didn''t dare to answer. She came back with bao''er first. "


    She takes Dabao on the street three times a day before she comes back. When I came back today, I saw the thin middle-aged man again. The man still didn''t look at her. When he saw bao''er, he only handed a box to bao''er and said softly, "bao''er, this is a gift for you."


    Chimonanthus praecox had a lesson from the past and did not dare to stay more. She hurriedly returned to the backyard of Yangshengtang with Dabao in her arms.


    Ke minteng stood up with a sharp voice. "Where is he?"


    Lamei was startled, but she replied respectfully, "when the slave came back, he was at the corner gate. Now I don''t know if he is still there?"


    Ke min sipped her hair at the sideburns. She was surprised that she was a little out of shape. She took a deep breath and said coldly, "next time he wants to hand over something to bao''er, just accept it."


    Hum, is it the tigress in his family who finally told him the truth that she forced herself to become a monk when she was about to give birth? Or did he finally find out that he had only one son, so he wanted to rob him? I was born with bao''er and raised him to such a big age. Now does that person want to enjoy his success? Thinking of this, Ke min clenched her fists.


    Xiyan Yangsheng hall has too many mother and baby customers. A few months ago, with the consent of the queen, it has separated the mother and baby hall and set up another hall. Therefore, she moved to live and work in the new mother and baby hall in order to better monitor and improve the operation of the new hall. It''s only three months since she moved to this new place. How did he know he lived here? He''s been, secretly watching himself? Since you have been paying attention to yourself, why don''t you show up in front of her and make it clear to her? Will it be too late to appear in front of Bao and express his concern to him at this time?


    Seeing that the master bowed his head and meditated, Lamei kept silent and dared not disturb her, so she blessed herself and accompanied bao''er to the house to drink water and snacks.


    Ke min walked out of the door.


    At the moment, she was so confused that she couldn''t help thinking about how she would face him if he really appeared in front of her? Bao''er is almost three years old. Although he has gained a new life, if he once hated and resented him, it has basically disappeared. If he really put down his body to find himself, what should he do? Think of the years when they were so close together, can they really put down all those beautiful memories? Can you put him down completely? Also, after all, he is bao''er''s father. Does he always let bao''er live a single parent family life? If there is no father in bao''er''s life, what impact will it have on his future? But to return to the Wu family, those unbearable memories


    When she came to the corner gate, the gatekeeper saw her coming, got up and said hello to her, "madam, are you going out?" It was already sunset, and she never went out at this time.


    Ke min woke up and was surprised how she came to the corner gate unconsciously. She looked back and smiled at the woman, "no, I''m just walking around. Are there strangers knocking at the door these two days? "

 Chapter 241

    The woman replied, "No. On weekdays, this corner gate is the girl who buys daily, the delivery men go in and out, and the girl who carries bao''er with her. Today they have come back, madam, don''t worry. "


    Ke min suddenly thought, "Da Mei, where does she usually go out with bao''er?"


    The woman replied, "well, madam, don''t you know? Two steps outside the corner gate, there is a small manor, which seems to be next door to us. There is a peach forest there. Now it is the time for flowers to bloom. The young master likes it very much. When the young master goes out, he will be accompanied by xiaoxiaozi. Don''t worry. " The path is their coachman.


    Ke min nodded and turned back.


    A few days later, the empress sent a message to her and asked her to take bao''er to the palace the next day. She knew that the queen must have something to tell her. So on the appointed day, she dressed up and took Dabao into the palace.


    "See the queen." She saluted the queen in a dignified manner. The Chimonanthus next to her was a little at a loss holding bao''er. She hesitated whether she should hold bao''er and salute the empress, or whether she should put down bao''er and kneel down and kowtow to the empress like the master.


    Ke min saw it and whispered to her, "put the baby down quickly."


    Lamei immediately blushed, put bao''er down, knelt down and kowtowed to the queen.


    Ke min pulls bao''er in front of him and asks him to kneel down. He naively imitated his mother to say hello to the queen.


    Zhuo Xi looked very interesting. She raised her hand and called for exemption. She pulled him to her, held him for a while, and rewarded him with a jade pendant. She asked chunnuan to call mother Wu in and let the brothers play on the imperial concubine''s chair. It happened that Ke min brought some infant toys newly invented by the craftsmen in the mother and baby Museum. After the spring warmth was washed and disinfected, it was sent in to play with the two young CHILDES.


    Zhuo Xi then went to the main seat and sat down, sighed and said, "let the children have their own playmates of the same age. See how happy they are. " Xiao yu''er could only lie in bed and pedal his limbs. Grab something, either put it in your mouth or throw it forward. Now a big brother came to play with him. He could walk and jump, and he could pick up the toys he threw out. Not to mention how happy he was, he giggled.


    Ke min nodded and said with a smile, "who said no? For a few years, children and their world may be completely carefree. " Although the boy was officially enlightened at the age of seven, which of the most wealthy families did not start to recognize characters and objects for him at the age of three or four? Besides, the great prince of Tianjia may not be so happy in the future.


    "Bao''er is almost three years old?" Zhuo Xi asked.


    Ke min nodded, "I''ll be three years old in two months."


    "Have you ever thought about his future? He is still young and doesn''t know what his father is, but when he grows up, will you tell him that his father is no longer alive? Or are you going to find him a stepfather? " Zhuo Xi didn''t go around, so she asked her confusion directly.


    Ke min shook her head and said, let''s talk about the future. Who knows what can happen? When I was driven out of the Wu house by the Wu family''s mistress that day, where did I think it would be like today?


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "this is also true. If you don''t stick to the end of life, no one knows what kind of ending you can get."


    This meant something. Ke minfei gave the empress a quick look. Seeing her look as usual, I suspected that I was too worried.


    Zhuo Xi began to talk about business, "now you''re going to run at Xiyan Yangsheng hall and healthy mother and baby hall, but are you tired?" When the mother and baby hall was temporarily independent, she didn''t bother to take the trouble to get a good name, so she casually said the word "health", which was very popular. In the final analysis, the only hope for new mothers and babies, whether as mothers or elders, is health.


    Ke min quickly and respectfully replied, "I''m not tired. Xiyan Yangsheng hall has been on the right track. There''s no need to worry about it. The mother and baby hall is now small and everything is working well. There is only a slight shortage of manpower. I have arranged for people to recruit everywhere. However, after the newcomer is recruited, he still needs training and more training before he can take up his post. Therefore, although we are in a hurry at this moment, we can still withstand it as long as we don''t accept new customers, but we''re just busy. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "let Hong Quan not be stingy with teaching and cultivate more gold masters, so that we can expand the scale. Although Yu Xin is sitting in the Xiyan Yangsheng hall, after all, in terms of Gynecology, it is still not as good as Hong Quan. "


    Ke min''s face looked different and nodded, "yes, madam."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly thought of what he had just said, and asked with a smile, "Hong Quan is old, isn''t he? Why didn''t you expect to get married and have children? "


    Ke min immediately stiffened on her face, raised two suspicious red clouds and murmured, "people''s daughter, I don''t know."


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes flashed and asked, "can there be picture books in the mother and baby museum?"


    Ke min, stunned, "picture book?" What is a picture book?


    Zhuo Xi reached for the picture version of the Three Character Classic and threw it to Ke min.


    Ke min took it, opened it, pondered it carefully, and not only read it softly, "at the beginning of man, nature is good; Similar in sex, far in habit... "


    After looking at it for a moment, her eyes lit up, "madam, is this a children''s Enlightenment book? The pictures are clear, the colors are bright, and the words and sentences are simple and catchy. It is very suitable for children as big as bao''er as an initial enlightenment reading. " Sure enough, it is worthy of rolling over in the mall. You can see its commercial value at a glance.


    Zhuo Xi nodded with a smile and said, "first find some good painters who can write and draw. Copy twenty of these picture books and put them on sale in the mother and baby hall. Each book is priced at 12 silver."


    Ke min took a breath. Is it so expensive?


    Zhuo Xi continued to smile and said, "one instinct is to let three-year-old children understand enlightenment infant books. No matter how expensive they are, they are willing to pay money. Besides, this is unique in the world. Don''t forget to sign the author''s name on the front page of the book. " In case of being copied by the government as soon as possible, it will be impossible to find a person to file a case according to the law. This is intellectual property.


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "this book will soon become an ordinary reading that ordinary people can afford. If he can become a book, do you have a familiar calligraphy and painting dealer to underwrite? "


    Ke min thought for a moment and replied, "Jiangbei Wujia calligraphy and painting is a time-honored brand in Kyoto. You can talk with them." But what is a book? Isn''t it a book? Besides, books, silk and painting scrolls are expensive things. How can they become ordinary books that ordinary people can afford?


    Zhuo Xi smiled faintly. "I heard that the Wu family calligraphy and painting in the west of the city is the largest calligraphy and painting dealer in Kyoto. Even the bamboo slips, silk, pens, inkstones and inkstones in the palace are supplied by the Wu family? "


    Ke min, with a cold sweat on her forehead, flopped and knelt down in front of the queen, "Min Nu, min Nu, damn it. Minnu didn''t mean to hide her husband''s family. After narrowly escaping death that day, minnu has regarded herself as an abandoned woman of the Wu family. She will never have anything to do with the Wu family in this life. In the past three years, people''s women have never had any contact with the Wu family. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "get up first. You don''t have to kneel easily. You can see that the Wu family is not only an emperor merchant of calligraphy and painting, but also a scholar and senior doctor of the Xing Department in the third room of the Wu family. That''s a three life Dynasty official. " If Mrs. Wu Sheng hadn''t asked her to beg, she didn''t know that her shopkeeper was so involved with the Wu family. She remembered Wu Sheng''s sharp words at the auction two years ago. She intuitively felt that he was not easy to provoke. Moreover, Mrs. Wu also said that Ke Minsheng''s son is now the only blood of the Wu family''s big house, and he should recognize his ancestors anyway.


    Ke Min said with tears in her eyes, "before she was adopted by yuyimen, Minfu was also the apple of the eyes of the small rich people in Jiangnan. Later, the family was destroyed because they got into trouble with local bullies. People''s women are doomed to death. After escaping, they meet the people of the feather gate, and then enter the life of the feather gate. If you hadn''t accidentally fallen into the water in that year and been saved by the eldest son of the Wu family, would you have been his concubine? Min Nu followed him in Jiangnan for three years, took care of his shop in Jiangnan, took care of his house in Jiangnan, served him and served him. Later, because she was pregnant, she was ready to return to Beijing for childbirth. The eldest lady has always been unhappy with me. When he was about to give birth, he went to liaozhou because of an emergency. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady took this opportunity to make trouble, polluted me, had an affair with the coachman who had been following me, and expelled me from the Wu family. How can I forgive such a humiliation? Besides, bao''er is almost three years old. In the past three years, has he ever come to me? " Now, why did Mrs. Wu come to the empress to beg? What do you mean?


    She suddenly remembered what La Mei said a few days ago. Since he had found their place to stay and openly appeared in front of the servants, and made the Wu family beg for the Queen''s face, he must not stop until he reached his goal. Thinking of this, she trembled and suddenly knelt down towards Zhuo Xi, "empress, please help me. I can''t let bao''er leave me. Bao''er is my life. "


    Zhuo Xi looked at him in embarrassment. "It''s hard for honest officials to break the housework. Anyway, bao''er is the blood of their Wu family after all." If the Wu family wants bao''er to recognize her ancestors, even if she is a queen, she can''t interfere.


    Ke min was stunned and tears flowed out. Yes, even the son of heaven can''t stop people from recognizing and dating.


    Zhuo Xi reminded her, "Wu Sheng is in charge of the Ministry of punishment. He is afraid that it is difficult to reverse his familiarity with the law and clan ethics for a while. If you don''t want to separate from bao''er, have you considered taking bao''er back to the Wu family? "

 Chapter 242

    "No!" She said sternly, "I will never go back to the Wu family in this life!"


    "What about the eldest son of the Wu family? Are you willing?" Zhuo Xi stared at her closely.


    Ke min calmed down and lowered her eyelashes. When I opened my eyes, my eyes were already clear and bright, "maybe I have been reluctant to give up. But he hasn''t asked for three years. No matter how long the affection is, it has long been consumed. Since he believed what the eldest lady said three years ago, it shows that his suspicion of me far exceeds his trust. Such a person is not a good person. How can I let bao''er grow up in front of such a father and mother? " He didn''t come to her three years ago. Three years later, why did he come to her? She''s looking for treasure, isn''t she? Why did he suddenly want to find treasure? Is it because bao''er has opened his eyebrows and eyes, which is somewhat similar to him? Did he observe bao''er secretly for a long time before he asked the empress to confirm this fact? She trembled at the thought of this.


    Zhuo Xi said leisurely, "besides, bao''er doesn''t have a surname so far. Now you''re single again. Take him alone. It''s hard to avoid some conjectures in people''s hearts... "


    Ke min suddenly raised her head. "Originally, the people''s daughter planned to enlighten bao''er, and then let Mr. take a big name. Today, the situation is forcing me. Please pity me and give bao''er a big name. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "being famous without a surname is not a long-term plan!"


    Ke min clenched her teeth and said, "last name, there will be! Ask your mother to give you a name! "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "it seems that you have an idea. So good. "


    Ke min suddenly woke up. The empress didn''t come to ask questions or persuade her to go back to the Wu family, but to give advice for her? She couldn''t help kowtowing again, "thank you for your grace."


    Zhuo Xi beckoned chunnuan, asked her to take the Tianyu ceremony, read it for a moment, and asked, "what do you think of the name Huanchen?"


    Ke min pondered for a moment and said happily, "Huan is the meaning of rebirth. Morning is the beginning of the day. Good name! Thank you, empress. "

    After leaving the palace, Ke min''s carriage drove directly into the nave of the mother and baby hall before stopping. She asked La Mei to hold bao''er and go back to the backyard to rest first. She strode to Hong Quan''s small office. Inside, a pregnant woman just finished the clinic and smiled and left.


    Ke min motioned to the nurse and said, "the next guest asked her to come in later. I have something to say to Dr. Hong. " With that, she pushed the door in.


    Hong Quan, who was buried in sorting out the medical records, thought he was a guest. He was about to ask her to sit down. He looked up. Unexpectedly, it was Ke min in full dress. His face was slightly red. He was stunned and his hands shook.


    Ke Min said to the two apprentices sitting next to Hong Quan, "go out first. I have something to say to Dr. Hong."


    The two disciples got up and went out.


    Ke min locked the door with a latch.


    He stood up nervously and asked, "shopkeeper Ke, but what''s important? If you have something important, just send someone to call me. Why come here in person? "


    Ke min put her hands around her chest and sneered, "if I send someone to call you, will you have to drag it to the next duty to see me?"


    Hong Quan immediately kowtowed, "where, where is there?"


    Ke Min stared at him and asked, "I''ll ask you, what you said that night was true?"


    Hong Quan immediately lowered his eyes and didn''t dare to look at her, "which night? Did I say anything? "


    "More than two years ago, on the night of bao''er''s full moon, you drank too much and said you were responsible for me. Did you forget?" Ke min''s eyes didn''t blink. In fact, she drank too much that night, but later he never mentioned it again, so that she didn''t know whether what he said was true or what she heard was an illusion. So he took advantage of his unprepared to cheat him.


    Hong''s mind was full of confusion and turned his face. "I, I drank too much and talked nonsense."


    Ke min looked relaxed, that is to say, did he really say it? She curled her lips and smiled, "I really want to know why you are responsible for me? What have you done to me? "


    Hong Quan was so frightened that his face turned pale and his hands shook wildly, "no, no, I haven''t done anything."


    She followed closely, "then why did you suddenly say you were responsible for me?" And then nothing?


    "I said that when I drank too much and talked nonsense, I couldn''t be true."


    Ke min asked, "then why did the people in the Spring Festival Hall last month invite you to their house with 30 times the medical fee of the mother and baby hall, and you refuse? And the Jishi hall last year and the white grass reed the year before last, which one didn''t pay you ten times or even dozens of times? Why did you all refuse? "


    Hong Quan thought for a long time before he knocked out a sentence, "well, that''s naturally because of the empress. Yes, I have, I have the grace of knowing what to do..."


    Ke min stepped closer and breathed almost on his face. "You lied. You stayed in the nursing home before, and now you followed me to the mother and baby hall. You don''t want to leave me because of me, do you?"


    In a panic, Hong Quan couldn''t resist taking a step back, but ran into the chair he usually sat in. He stood up quickly and didn''t dare to move. He bowed his head and didn''t know where to put his hands and feet.


    Ke min took another step forward, looked up and looked at his face carefully. There seemed to be thin sweat at the tip of her nose. Because she leaned too tightly, she didn''t know whether she was scared or nervous, so she quickly closed her eyes. The long eyelashes trembled quickly.


    Ke min looked at the man who had been standing silently behind him in recent years. He sighed and tried again. If he didn''t want to, it would be all right.


    So she raised her hands, took his face and kissed him gently.


    She obviously felt him shaking, his teeth clenched, and his whole body was stiff like a pile of wood.


    Would you be wrong? He said he must be responsible for himself. He must have done something wrong. Is it just because of guilt, not because of his love for himself?


    But what happened to his eyes that sometimes had no follow?


    She felt a little uncertain. She sighed again in her heart and released her hand. She was about to let go of him, but immediately felt that she was tightly held by him. Her teeth bumped against her teeth indiscriminately. The gurgling earthquake made her eardrum ache, inexperienced and disorganized.


    She suddenly understood... This fool... Unprecedented joy filled her heart


    She had to hold his face again and force the distance between them.


    He looked terrified and released his hands around her waist. The soft touch on his lips made him tremble in his heart... He opened his eyes but didn''t know how to face her. He hurriedly closed his eyes again. Thinking about something wrong, he had to turn around nervously, opened his eyes and gasped, "I, I''m menglang..."


    She ordered, "turn around and look at me."


    Is she angry? He took a deep breath, held his hands tightly, slowly turned around, and the corners of his lips closed in a straight line.


    She smiled, stared into his eyes and asked, "I want to marry you. Will you marry me?"


    Hong Quan was so stiff that he couldn''t believe it. What did she say?


    Her voice echoed in her mind. She asked him if he would marry her?


    Why wouldn''t he? Why wouldn''t he?!


    Ke min thought he didn''t hear clearly and repeated, "will you marry me?"


    I heard you right! After reaction, his face showed a look of ecstasy, "really, really? I will. I dream of marrying you! "


    Ke min asked, "but really?"


    Hong Quan''s ecstasy did not fade away, and he nodded again and again, "really!"


    Ke Min stared into his eyes and said seriously, "I really married you, too. You must remember."


    He nodded again and again. He was too happy to say anything. His hands had stretched out before his will and trembled a little. He asked hesitantly, "well, can I hold you?" Are you dreaming?


    Ke min blushed and nodded.


    So he stretched out his hand, hugged the beautiful body thinking day and night, held her tightly in his arms, and asked incredulously, "is this true? I''m not dreaming, am I? " He has had this dream for three years, but now it is in the daytime. Does he think like crazy and have an illusion? But how could the illusion be so real? She in his arms seems to really exist... He fully knows the way to verify whether he dreams, but he is not willing to wake himself up. Even if he dreams, let him have a good aftertaste


    Suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his waist. With a "hissing" sound, he suddenly opened his eyes.


    It''s not a dream? The person in his arms is still there, and the pleasant faint jasmine fragrance at the tip of his nose is still there... He can''t help but embed her tightly in his arms


    Ke min pinched him again. "Does it hurt? Does it hurt? Still think you''re dreaming? "


    He took a deep breath, buried his head in her shoulder and neck, and murmured, "I''m really not dreaming¡°


    She fell in his arms and said softly, "it''s not a dream, it''s true. Tomorrow you can invite the official media to propose marriage... Today the queen gave boa a big name, Huanchen. But he still lacks a surname, so let bao''er follow your surname and be your son? "


    He answered without thinking, "Okay, okay! I grew up watching bao''er. Just like my own son, I will treat him as if he had been out. Don''t worry. " He felt a little dizzy. What virtue did he accumulate? Happiness came too fast. In a twinkling of an eye, he had a wife and a three-year-old son?


    He held her tightly and couldn''t let go any more


    "But I have something to tell you." Ke min pushed him away.


    He looked at her nervously and suspiciously, "you said, I promise you whatever conditions you want."


    Ke min stretched out a jade finger and pressed it on his lips, "no, I have no conditions. It''s just that boa and I need to explain to you. Listen to me and think about marrying me. What I want to tell you is that BoA''s biological father has come to find us. But... "She said everything about the Wu family and her expulsion from the Wu family, and finally said," you should think it over. I am a concubine with a three-year-old child. If you marry me, you must accept bao''er. If you accept bao''er, you may become an enemy with the Wu family. In the future, I''m afraid it won''t be so smooth. Are you willing? "

 Chapter 243

    Hong Quan held her hand tightly. "I don''t mind your past. I only care about our future. Although the Wu family are rich businessmen and there are people in the court, I am just a doctor. If I am not on the same battlefield with them, I think there will be no big problem. At first, since they questioned bao''er''s blood and gave up bao''er first, now where is the reason to go back?! I will protect your mother and daughter even if I work hard! You believe me! "


    Ke min''s tears filled her eyelashes.


    The two quietly hugged for a while, and Ke min went out with a red face and eyes down and went back to the backyard.


    Hong Quan jumped and laughed in the room for a long time before opening the door to let the pregnant women and two disciples waiting outside come in.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Only six testimonies were received for the election of female officials, and another 17 were recommended by families. Zhuo Xi looked at the few 23 newspaper lists and sighed a long sigh. Is it not enough for her to set an example?


    Although there are few people, the written examination should be held as scheduled. The topic was written by Zhuo Xi himself. The first major topic is the ideological and political topic, "on the" three outlines "¡° The first of the three principles is "husband is wife". She really wanted to know if any of the 23 people had won by surprise. Then there were several small topics, including mathematics, classics, medicine and nursing. She also wanted to see if anyone could participate in the construction of the health government office. Last time in the cabinet study, she really wanted to suggest to them that the imperial examination should be unlimited for men and women, so that the selected girls can be arranged to train female students in medical schools and health nursing schools.


    But she then thought that he Qian''s proposed selection examination for medical specialized human beings would include female doctors and nurses


    She gave a good question and asked people to seal it up, so she went to Ci''an palace. The Empress Dowager sent someone to invite her at the time of Zhu Xiang, saying that she wanted to introduce someone to her.


    She was curious about the so-called people in this era, especially women. It''s like the feeling of a female Nobel Laureate in later generations. Because if you can go to Ci''an palace to greet the empress dowager, and make the Empress Dowager sympathize with each other, it must be a woman.


    I don''t know what she''s good at? fancies of men of letters? She knows nothing about these four.


    What she can do is the medical knowledge and scientific knowledge ahead of this era


    Why did the Empress Dowager introduce them?


    Is she a master of Xinglin with excellent medical skills?


    With full of doubts, she went to Ci''an palace.


    After meeting the empress dowager, she found that there were two women sitting in front of the Empress Dowager. One is older, the other is a girl of eleven or twelve years old, sitting slightly behind.


    After she sat down, the two men also got up with a smile and saluted the queen.


    "See the empress for Jiang huailan (Jiang Xuewei).


    Zhuo Xi looked at the two heads that bowed to her. One was a black hair top with a green hairpin, and the other was a pearl ring with green color.


    Zhuo Xi said "no gift" and looked at the two people carefully. The older one was about forty, in a woman''s bun, wearing a blue dark pattern makeup flower deep clothes and a floor bound heald skirt. The little girl is a bright orange sky silk deep dress with gold woven edges. On her head is a set of rose red gemstones. Her head looks very solemn and gorgeous. Her facial features are also exquisite and small. A pair of Phoenix eyes on her small face with a palm are very flexible.


    Zhuo Xi was secretly surprised. She saw that the little girl''s head and clothes were the products of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan. And it was made by myself at the auction. The orange deep silk robe wrapped with gold and woven edges is the first auction dress of Wu Zhaoyi in his rehearsal of the biography of the emperor of Wu.


    She remembered that it was a woman''s family member of a small official with a vague face who photographed it... It seemed that the head was photographed by the wife of Sima, who was a few weeks old? The whole family has been arrested several weeks ago... Why did they appear on the little girl at the same time? Originally, the head was worn by Wu Zhaoyi, who had become a woman of Gaozong. It should be combed in a woman''s bun. At this time, the first half of the little girl''s hair is high for inserting hairpins, but the hair below the back of her head is straight down, but she is still a girl''s head. The little girl was only twelve or thirteen years old, and there was no sudden contradiction in her complicated woman''s head. She must have dressed up like this on purpose.


    She smiled and said, "Miss Jiang looks very familiar."


    Jiang Xuewei said generously, "if you go back to your mother, the clothes and jewelry come from Feiyu zuiyu Pavilion."


    The Empress Dowager also smiled and nodded. "No wonder AI Jia looked familiar. It turned out to be from Feiyu Zui Yuxuan." She knew that Feiyu zuiyuxuan was originally zhuoxi''s industry. Now Feiyu zuiyuxuan in Kyoto has become one of the imperial merchants in clothing. Most of the clothes and jewelry in the four seasons in the palace are provided by Feiyu zuiyuxuan. The Empress Dowager also knows that most of the income of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan is put in the feather clothes door to build girls'' good halls everywhere.


    Jiang huailan sat down again. Hearing this, he leaned down and said, "exactly. Xuewei is a child who loves to dress up naturally. All day long, either toss these pearls or toss those flowers. I can''t calm down at all! "


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "you can''t expect her to be like you. She can bo at the age of three, Ke Yi at the age of four, and have no constant enemy after the age of seven."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised that Ms. Jiang huailan in front of her was a national hand? He can play six Bo chess at the age of three and go at the age of four. He hasn''t met a real opponent since he was seven? Liubo chess has been lost in the 21st century. It is said that one person arranges troops with six sons. The game spread in later generations first refers to Liubo and go. No wonder the Empress Dowager said she was everyone


    Jiang huailan said with a smile, "the Empress Dowager praised me. Should be double flying swallow two pressure, its method begins with laziness. The world''s game is to win, and it is easy to get upset if you want to win. People''s women just have no desire to win, so they can achieve the word "lazy" and view it easily. It''s a fluke to break the overall situation... "


    Zhuo Xi also praised, "when playing chess, you can always have no desire to win, which is not what ordinary people can do. Chiang Kai Shek is really too modest. "


    Those who can''t play chess can''t win even if they want to win? It''s not possible to win


    As expected, the Empress Dowager stroked her hand and praised, "it is said that last month, everyone Jiang lost 16 chess players in a row in the wheel battle in Xuchang City, the capital of xuzou state. You started traveling around the five countries two years ago. Xuchang should be your last stop? "


    Jiang huailan said with a smile, "since the first chess game in Moyan county two years ago, chess players from all over the world have written to invite the game. The civilian woman had no intention of fighting with her, but she thought Xuewei was still young and wanted to take her out to see, so she also met and exchanged ideas with her friends on the way. Unexpectedly, the story in the world rumored that Cheng Minfu had the courage to challenge the five countries, but it seemed that she was fishing for fame. "


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "everyone''s strength is here. Even if it''s fishing for fame, what''s the harm?"


    Zhuo Xi also said with a smile, "everyone has such chess power. Although the palace doesn''t understand the game, it appreciates the excellent women in the world. To change the Japanese palace, we should observe and study hard. "


    Jiang huailan said she didn''t dare.


    Jiang Xuewei opened her eyes and asked curiously, "can''t the queen play chess?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a wry smile, "I know a little about go. Liu Bo knows nothing at all."


    Jiang Xuewei was excited. "You can play go. If you have a chance, you can compete with the empress."


    Jiang huailan scolded, "Xuewei, don''t talk nonsense!"


    The Empress Dowager also laughed, "if Xuewei can pass the female official election this time, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. What about the election of female officials? She doesn''t seem to have the name Jiang Xuewei on the list she received, does she?


    Jiang huailan looked dark, "empress, it''s a civilian woman who has exceeded the law. The people''s wife came here today just to ask the Empress Dowager to recommend Xuewei. "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly, "recommended by her mother, you can naturally participate in the selection test. However - "she looked at Jiang Xuewei and said," to participate in the examination, you must first pass the written examination and accept the interview. Select the best. This palace will not, because you are recommended by your mother and look at you differently. "


    Jiang Xuewei said confidently, "empress, please wait and see. Thank the Empress Dowager for her recommendation. Thank the Empress Dowager for her kindness. "


    The next day, the written examination was held in the side hall on the left of Ning''an palace. There are 24 people in total, and it doesn''t need a large area. Zhuo Xi didn''t taste the taste of visiting the examination room for thousands of people. Only after chunnuan read out today''s examination questions to you, she walked around the examination room at will and found that wherever she passed, all the candidates were unable to write without shaking their hands. Only Jiang Xuewei answered the questions quietly.


    After returning to Ning''an palace the day before, she specially asked chunnuan them about Jiang everyone and his daughter Jiang Xuewei. She knew that Jiang everyone had lost her husband at the age of 15. Jiang Xuewei was a posthumous son and grew up with her mother since childhood. Girls from such a family background are generally self reliant and capable, and she is also looking forward to it. So at this time, looking at her performance in the examination room, she was half satisfied.


    After an hour, she opened the bamboo slips to check them one by one, focusing on the first question and the three outlines. Third, the husband is the wife. Her focus is to see the judgment and positioning of the relationship between husband and wife in the eyes of these women taking the exam. This is the first hurdle of Ideological and political view. She does not need a woman who is submissive to men and loses herself, nor does she need a woman who is too rebellious. The latter professional knowledge of economics, calculation, medicine and nursing is just to enable them to give full play to their strengths. It doesn''t matter if they don''t understand it. They can learn it. However, if there is a problem with the three outlooks, it is difficult to learn and correct it.


    Sure enough, Jiang Xuewei''s bamboo slips didn''t disappoint her. She seemed to know the intention of the queen. She only briefly discussed the first two of the three principles, focusing on explaining what is "husband is wife", especially pointing out that husband and wife should respect, understand, support and tolerate each other in their relationship, which reflects the idea of equality between men and women in future generations.

 Chapter 244

    In the next day''s palace test, Zhuo Xi deliberately asked people to make 12 groups of seven wooden cards "husband and wife, Jing Shen, women''s Bank, concentration, Qu Cong, uncle and sister" for them to sort. 12 female contestants who passed the preliminary examination gave their own answers on the spot. Ten players ranked the seven wooden cards according to the original order in the women''s commandments. Only two contestants were ranked according to their own understanding. Jiang Xuewei is one of them. She put the women''s Bank first and focused on the second, while the other five wooden cards were all folded into a stack, which means that these five are equally important or equally unimportant. The other is a girl named Bai Yunshu. The first two in her order are also women''s Bank and concentrate, and the rest are husband and wife, Jing Shen, uncle and sister, Qu Cong and inferiority. The two girls looked at each other.


    Zhuo Xi asked several related questions, and when she knew it, she asked them to step down.


    On the third day, the examination results were announced. Jiang Xuewei was indeed the first temporary six life palace to write; Baiyunshu was originally a palace maid with a pen in the inner palace. She won the second place and was promoted to seven orders to walk in the inner palace. Another eight entered the inner palace to supplement the palace maids with pens. For the rest of the candidates, Zhuo Xi has set up a temporary women''s college to recruit women and teach them basic literacy.


    After completing this series of work, Zhuo Xi took a long breath. She really felt that it was precious for the women here to be able to read. She doesn''t make good use of them. When she wants to recruit female nurses and doctors on a larger scale in the future, she finds that these women are illiterate. What can she do? In addition, the first batch of women who took the examination were employed by the government, which can also play a good exemplary role in the recruitment of the next batch of women officials.


    A few days later, Zhuo Xi heard that Jingyuan had also recruited a group of people of insight. She sighed again. It was hard to imagine that she had created the imperial examination system that had influenced future generations for thousands of years


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    In the middle of the year, sister-in-law Peng came to the palace to say hello.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly asked her to get up before she saluted.


    Seeing her relaxed look on her face, Zhuo Xi knew that Liu had finally stopped for a while, so she also put down her heart. She wanted to gossip with her sister-in-law about Wu Zhilian and the two wives, but she was afraid that her sister-in-law would be ashamed to speak, so she just smiled and asked her how she felt recently?


    Peng replied with a slightly red face, "everything is fine. You can obviously feel fetal movement. Doctor Hong also said that the pulse is very strong. I''m afraid it''s easy to keep... "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and asked about the old lady. Peng respectfully replied that the old lady has been doing well recently, but she misses Xiao yu''er


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "didn''t I give my grandmother a sign last time so that she can pass it in anytime she wants to enter the palace?"


    Peng smiled, "that''s what my concubine said. But the old lady said that the sign given to her by her mother should be a word of "filial piety", but she can''t rely on her old age to sell her old age. If she wants to enter the palace, she can enter the palace. Where are the rules in the palace? How can I disturb my mother if I don''t have a big or small affair? "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "grandma is too careful. Is grandma fifty-eight this year? Speaking of it, the palace doesn''t know when grandma''s birthday is? It''s just time to take Xiao yu''er to pay a birthday call to her old man! " She hasn''t lived in the Wu family for a whole year. Naturally, she doesn''t know when the Wu family''s birthday is. Although it''s not a whole birthday, can I have a little birthday!


    "The old lady''s birthday is at the end of the year. See what the old lady means then. I wonder if my husband will come back then? If you can get together as a family, you must come and deliver a post to your mother. " Peng had heard from her husband that the empress had been fostered in another village in the countryside since she was a child. It was only a few months since she returned to the Wu family. Naturally, she knew that in the Wu family, apart from her husband, only the old ancestors had an unusual relationship with the Empress. A few days ago, the second uncle who had been out for a long time also returned to the Wu family. If my husband comes back at the end of the year, the Wu family can get together. I just don''t know what it is like when Wu Jiao is about to marry to Chang''an Bo mansion... Thinking of this, there is a little hesitation on her happy face.


    Zhuo Xi saw that she wanted to talk and stopped, so she asked, "sister-in-law, but what do you want to say?"


    Peng hesitated and said frankly, "Chang''an Bo''s house has sent someone to send the bride price. Grandma will be out of the pavilion in five days. "


    Zhuo Xi heard the speech and said faintly, "our palace has ordered people to prepare additional boxes. You can reach the Wu family in a few days. It''s a pity that our palace can''t send you to marry. "


    Peng saw that it must be Liu''s affair, which made the empress have a grudge against Miss Wu. She never knew whether her previous practice was correct. Her face showed a frightened look, "don''t you dare, how dare the Wu family bother the empress? However, the third young lady was about to leave the cabinet. It was inconvenient to go out, so she asked me to bring her a fan. She said she spent a month embroidering it and asked her mother to smile. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. She and Wu Jiao had no friendship except for their nominal sisters. That time was also at Xiao yu''er''s hundred day banquet. It was hot July. Wu Jiao, who came to the wedding banquet, took out an embroidered fan to fan the wind. She always thought that there was no fan in this era, so she casually praised, "the fan is good." Unexpectedly, Wu Jiao replied happily, "my mother likes it. When I go back, I''ll embroider a new one for her." She just said casually that day. Hearing Wu Jiao''s answer, she just listened casually and didn''t take it to heart. She didn''t expect that Wu Jiao still remembered the little joke of that day, and asked her sister-in-law to send it specially before she got married.


    Zhuo Xi took a look at the spring warmth recorded on one side. Spring warmth got up knowingly and picked up the beauty fan. She took it in her hand. The fan handle carved from bamboo bones was painted with black paint, but it was cool and delicate.


    Peng quickly took out a small box from his sleeve and said with a smile, "this is a gadget that my husband entrusted to bring to the Grand Prince from Ruihe city. He said that he had not had the opportunity to attend the Grand Prince''s hundred day banquet before and had not found a suitable object. Just a few days ago, he bought this object in a century old antique shop in Ruihe city and entrusted him to bring it..."


    Zhuo Xi motioned chunnuan to pick it up again. When she opened the box, she found that there was a delicate white jade feather with a jade mat under it. Zhuo Xi picked up the dog and looked at it for a while, nodded and said with a smile, "it''s a good girl. But to Xiao yu''er, I''m afraid he doesn''t know the goods. " When I put it back in the box, I glanced into the box. I was surprised. I only asked faintly, "it looks like it''s from some years. Elder brother, did you say where the seller of this thing is?"


    Then she handed the box back to chunnuan.


    Peng shook his head. "My husband only said he saw it in the century old antique shop and bought it. He didn''t say anything else."


    When chunnuan closed the lid, he found that the inside of the dog had fallen down. He picked it up with one hand and helped it. Then he saw the jade mat under it. The bottom of his heart was also stormy..


    Zhuo Xi ordered chunnuan in a deep voice, "go and put it away. Don''t touch it and fall."


    "Yes, ma''am. However, Mrs. Lin''an will come to see her after another column of incense. "


    "You girl, can you delay the time of Lin''an Junfu when I talk to my sister-in-law? Go, go! " Zhuo Xi smiled, joked with a smile and waved her hand.


    Chunnuan held the box, made a courtesy and went down.


    Peng quickly got up and said with a smile, "it''s also his duty to be warm in spring. My mother manages everything every day. I''m confused. I''ll leave first. "


    It''s not like she used to accompany her in the palace. She can sit in the side hall and do some sewing and wait for summoning... Where can she have so much leisure time to chat with her?


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "if sister-in-law has nothing to do, she can often come in and chat with the palace."


    This is no longer a guest. Peng immediately saluted and stepped down.


    Zhuo Xi calmed down. Unconsciously, she picked up the beauty fan sent by Wu Jiao and fanned it twice at will. There was a dark fragrance. She narrowed her eyes and found a row of uneven thin bamboo embroidered on the round fan. Looking at the root of the bamboo, there was a small white snake hovering around. She laughed. Xiaobai hasn''t seen it for a long time, and doesn''t know where it has gone. While thinking, he ordered chunzao to find it.


    Thinking of finding the uncertain trace of God, he was afraid that he would not be able to do it for a moment and a half. On the one hand, he asked someone to call Jiang Xuewei and ask her what happened to the gift of adding boxes for Miss Wu''s third family?


    Jiang Xuewei took out a gift list and replied respectfully, "it''s ready. Please have a look at it."


    Zhuo Xi took a closer look. They were all ordinary jewelry items and several kinds of jade ornaments. Although they looked more valuable and had great face in the open, they were rewarded by the palace after all, but there was nothing to challenge. She nodded with satisfaction. On that day, I carelessly told Jiang Xuewei to prepare a box gift for her third sister. She was to test Jiang Xuewei''s ability to observe her words and expressions. She deliberately said it was "the third miss of the Wu family" rather than her third sister. She said that after all, she was the son''s wife of Chang''an Bo, so she couldn''t lose her courtesy. Sure enough, the gift list she took out didn''t look shabby enough to make her face in front of her husband''s house, but she didn''t pick out, so as not to make others think how much the queen liked her.


    Zhuo Xi was satisfied, but she didn''t show it on her face. She just nodded faintly and said, "let''s do it first and send it to the five families tomorrow."


    "Yes. Mother. " Jiang Xuewei asked again, "will the instrument driver who gives gifts tomorrow carry 16 people with eight?"


    Zhuo Xi was satisfied again, which she didn''t expect. The reward instrument driving in the palace refers to the scale of the palace maid eunuch carrying the reward items out of the palace, which is also divided into 369 grades. However, most people only pay attention to the amount and value of the reward, and often ignore the instrument driving of the reward. Only those Zanying homes will notice these details. The highest level is sixteen and thirty-two people. It is generally used to reward the families of princes. Eight to sixteen people are specially used to reward officials with two to five orders. Four carry eight people the most, and officials with less than five lives can enjoy it. As a matter of course, the Wu family is a Pingyang uncle, and naturally can afford to carry 32 people, but at the same time, Wu Zhi is re elected as a three life imperial servant. If only eight people carry 16 people, it makes sense. But the last time the eldest son of the Wu family got married, the queen gave a reward to 32 people. It is fair to say that this time only three women of the Wu family left the house and the specification was halved. But as long as people with a heart think about it, they can see that the queen is only making face for Miss Wu this time. One is the eldest son of a concubine, the other is a legitimate daughter, standing high and low.


    Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction and asked Jiang Xuewei to step down.


    She remembered the two new female officials, Jiang Xuewei and Bai Yunshu. They were both talented and clever. Recently, they were told to do several things very well. Baiyunshu was originally a female official in the palace. She knows the rules and etiquette in the palace in detail. It''s needless to say. Jiang Xuewei was able to understand these complicated rules in a short time and deal with the details so well. Zhuo Xi couldn''t help but admire it.


    After five days, I heard that Miss Wu''s marriage caused a sensation in half of Kyoto. The man is the eldest son of Chang''an Bo, the woman is the direct daughter of the father-in-law''s Pingyang Bo house, and the Queen''s sister... It is said that the dowry was first carried into Chang''an Bo house, and the last was not carried out of Pingyang Bo house... The Queen''s reward was put in the front, which attracted thousands of people to watch


    The next day, Qi, the wife of Chang''an Bo, went into the palace and presented Wu Jiao with a folding note asking to be granted the wife of the son of God.


    Qi didn''t make much noise. He just sat down and showed his intention. He handed in a fold and left. There was a trace of fear in her face, and she didn''t even express her gratitude for facilitating the marriage.


    But it doesn''t seem that he is dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law since he hurried to invite Feng Shizi''s wife on the second day of marriage


    Zhuo Xi felt a little strange. These waimingfu usually wanted to delay talking to her. She was the only one who thought that waimingfu was wordy and didn''t know how to look, but didn''t avoid it. It''s like, I''m afraid I''ve done something wrong in front of her


    She left a heart and let chunnuan quietly send someone to inquire about her.


    The people who came back only said that the prince and his wife were in harmony, but they didn''t hear anything bad.


    After returning to the house on the third day, the person sent came back and said that the son accompanied the son''s wife back to Bo''s house. He was very modest and polite. He also cared for the son''s wife and couldn''t see any difference


    Jiang Xuewei and Bai Yunshu are becoming more and more handy. She simply handed over all the six departments of palace underwear, food, accommodation, gifts and finance to chunnuan as usual. Jiang Xuewei took over the original screening and drafting of chunnuan, while Bai Yunshu is responsible for arranging the schedule, receiving visits and other matters. In addition to what she had to do and some difficult decisions, she devoted herself to preparing for the Department of health with he Qian and Zi Ran. Ji ruomin was sent by her to set up a temporary women''s college with 14 women who failed in the exam. They chose an open space at the foot of Mingxiao mountain to fully start the capital construction and related academic enrollment... Preparing to lay a solid foundation for women''s Medical College and women''s nursing college


    But the things Wu Xing sent her that day made her worried. I don''t know when the people sent to Dingzhou will have an answer


    It''s a wordless jade bone token... Sun Yao, the leader of the feather clothes sect, passed it to Xianglan to take over the feather clothes sect. Why did it appear in an antique shop in Ruihe city?


    Xianglan really hasn''t heard from you for a long time... I don''t know if something happened?

 Chapter 245

    Hong Quan quickly asked the official media to ask Ke min for a kiss, a date and a decision. Since neither side had family members, they did not intend to make a big deal. But you must have your own house. Hong Quan has been living and eating in the health center for the past three years. He has almost never spent all his monthly money and has saved it all. Now that it was time to discuss marriage, he asked his toothbrush to look for the house, so he began to look around the house on his rest day.


    On this day, he took Ke min and bao''er to the five temples in Xicheng to see a house with two entrances. Boa heard that she was going out early in the morning. She was so happy that she chattered and twisted restlessly in the carriage. From time to time, she had to lift the driving curtain to see the scenery outside. It was like a family of three going on an outing.


    They went to see a house with two entrances. On the back of the house was a lake. According to the person from Yaxing, the house was originally inhabited by a seven life cleric. After the new emperor ascended the throne last year, he asked for the post of county mayor of Yixian County and went to other places, so he emptied the house. The house is small and exquisite with perfect layout. Ke min likes it very much, especially the wasteland on the back. Looking from a distance, it is a clear lake. If you build a path, you can have an outing every day.


    Ke min asked, "who owns this wasteland?"


    The toothy man grinned, "since it is a wasteland, where is the master? If madam wants to rent, she can go directly to the government to pay the rent and take the documents. There are at least ten mu of land in this wasteland. If we can plant some food, I''m afraid the harvest will be bad in the first few years. After a few years, when the land is cultivated, we can not worry about it for a year. " The government encourages the reclamation of wasteland, so the rent of wasteland in the first few years is very low.


    Ke min was overjoyed, but he saw that Hong Quan seemed a little embarrassed.


    Ke min smiled, "thank you, brother. We''re new here. We''ll talk about it later. What''s more, our master is a good doctor. How can we waste it on this field? "


    Hong Quan breathed a sigh of relief.


    The toothy man complimented, "the official is a doctor! Madam is really lucky. Although the house is far from downtown, there is a market along the street, and life is also convenient. Moreover, there is no one around here, which is very conducive to self-cultivation. Although the original owner of the house left Kyoto last year, he left someone to guard the house and clean it every day. You see, it''s spotless here. You can check in as long as you rearrange some window silk screens. "


    Lamei also liked it very much. She chased bao''er around the house and said, "young master, this is your home! Later, you can walk and run in this house. "


    This is the sense of belonging of home. It turned out that bao''er was like a bully in the health hall, and no one dared to stop him. From the perspective of Chimonanthus chinensis, after all, it is not your own place. There will always be restraint and restraint.


    Ke min smiled and looked at the scene in front of her. Her eyes were slightly wet. Seeing Hong Quan''s eyes looking over, she also looked at him expectantly.


    Hong Quan looked at his beloved fiancee''s expectant eyes and immediately made a decision. He said to the young man of dental walk, "OK, this house!"


    The young man nodded excitedly, explained some matters about going to the dental bank tomorrow to pay the money and transfer the deed according to the fingerprint, and left first


    Ke min and Chimonanthus immediately packed up, threw out some unwanted utensils and furniture, and prepared to move in some new things in two days.


    Hong Quan looked at his fiancee''s busy appearance, and his heart was filled with an unknown sense of satisfaction. When it was getting late, several talents reluctantly left the new home.


    Unexpectedly, when they were about to get on the carriage, a man in green turned out and stopped in front of them. Several people noticed that another carriage stopped under a big tree not far away.


    Another vigorous figure in a moon white gown came down from the carriage and went straight to Ke min.


    Hong Quan nervously stopped in front of Ke min and asked, "what''s important, brother?"


    The man looked Hong Quan up and down carefully, looked over him and said to Ke min, "min''er, I''ll pick you up."


    Hong Quan was shocked.


    Lamei looked at the people in front of her and was stunned. He, isn''t he the one who wanted to abduct boa the other day?


    Ke min nodded at the Chimonanthus, signaled that she knew, and whispered to her, "you take bao''er to the carriage first."


    Bao''er instinctively felt the danger, didn''t cooperate, and cried for his mother''s hug.


    Ke min coaxed him for a while before coaxing him and Lamei into the carriage first.


    The man in the moon white gown stared at bao''er until the curtain of the carriage came down and blocked his sight. Then he turned to Ke min and whispered, "he is our son?"


    Hong Quan was shocked again.


    Ke min stretched out her hand, took the palm of Hong Quanheng''s hand in front of her, smiled and said to the man in front of her, "Uncle Wu, are you kidding? Bao''er is the son of my husband and I. Don''t ruin my reputation. "¡° She bit the word "Qingyu" very hard, full of irony.


    Wu Zhen stifled and looked at Hong Quan again. He said to him in a cold voice, "I have something to talk to min''er. Please take shelter for a while."


    Hong Quan was alarmed. He thought Ke min''s ex husband was a despicable man, so he called him "Sir", and he felt that he must have made a mistake.


    Ke min tightened his hand and said, "since Hong Quan is my husband, I can''t hide anything from him. If you have anything to say in front of him. "


    Wu Zhenfang''s hand on his side became a fist. After thinking about it, he pressed down his anger and motioned for the two of them to go to the front of the courtyard together. A little away from the Lamei, their carriage is more than ten steps away. I think I''m afraid the children will hear something.


    Wu Zhen stared at the hands they held together for a long time, then moved his eyes to Hong Quan''s face, smiled ironically at him, then turned to Ke min and said to her, "you used to live in a big house at least five years away from the Lingluo in the south of the Yangtze River. From the front gate to the back yard, you have to be tired. You have specially equipped two soft sedans for you. There are only six first-class servant girls and eight second-class servant girls around, not to mention the woman''s Porter outside. You will always only eat the new rice harvested in April and October in South Vietnam, saying that there is enough sunshine and fragrant rice. I don''t even know that you can live such an ordinary life with such an ordinary man one day. That house has only two entrances, right? Can there be a back garden with four seasons of brocade? In the past, you didn''t think the three gardens were enough. But there are three miles and nine twists in the Orchid Pavilion for you to entertain your friends? Can there be a ten Mu Jianguang lake for you to raise flowers and fish? "


    Hong Quan''s heart surged like a raging wave. He never asked Ke min about her old days, and he didn''t know that she had lived so luxurious in the past.


    Look at the man in front of you. He is in his early thirties, handsome and elegant. It''s the latest Lake silk satin. It''s just becoming popular in Kyoto. It costs at least ten Liang silver a piece. He couldn''t help looking down at himself. Even the clothes on the young coachman standing next to him seemed better than he was wearing. Think again about what the man said. His speech is so extraordinary. It must have been that they used to play harmoniously and respect each other like guests? If you think about yourself again, there is nothing else to take out except medical skills. Sitting in the mother and baby''s house all day, sometimes I can''t say a word with her for a few days. Can she get used to such a hard life after she marries herself? What if they don''t talk to each other? Will she regret it one day?


    Ke min smiled, "although it''s small, there are only three masters living here. There are few servant girls and women, so you don''t have to worry that a familiar figure will appear on your husband''s bed one day. When I was driven out that day, I even ate the rotten steamed bread in the gutter. How can I remember the taste of new rice in April and October in South Vietnam? A true friend, how can you care if you have sanliquqiao Lanting and ten Mu Jianguang great lake? It doesn''t matter whether there is a back garden with brocade in four seasons. What matters is that my heart will always be like spring in four seasons. " She looked at Hong Quan, "he is in my heart, the back garden with spring like seasons. As long as he''s there, I''ll have an endless back garden. " She turned to Wu Zhen again. "You said, if life is like this, can you get more?"


    Wu Zhen''s face was pale. He had only three masters. Does that mean that his family had neither in laws, aunts and concubines? You don''t need rich clothes and food, generous houses, flowers and brocade. Is it enough to treat each other sincerely? I didn''t treat her sincerely enough?


    Hong Quan''s flustered heart settled down at once. He held his fiancee''s hand tightly and said, "min''er is my wife. I won''t lose her or treat bao''er badly in my life."


    This fool! She just wanted Wu Zhen not to remember the existence of bao''er. Unexpectedly, Hong Quan himself put it forward first. Ke min scolded in her heart and pulled back, "Uncle Wu, if you have nothing to do, go back earlier. It''s getting late. I''m afraid Mrs. Wu is in a hurry! "


    Wu Zhen looked a little excited. "After all, do you still hate the eldest lady? I don''t know what happened that day. When I came back from liaozhou, you had disappeared. I sent people to search everywhere, but I couldn''t find it. I thought something had happened to you, so I had to give up. " This was the explanation he had been hiding in his heart for three years, and finally said it to her face.


    As long as she still hates, she still loves him? A fluke rose in his heart.


    A month ago, when his mother told him that Ke min was still alive, he was ecstatic. But the mother just asked him to pick up his son, and didn''t mention Ke min. He was like being poured cold water. He knew that according to his mother''s request, he would not be able to return to bao''er smoothly. He wanted to see Xu Xuzhi, but he couldn''t help but go to see them, so he quietly went to the corner door of the mother and baby hall and met bao''er twice.


    When he found that Ke min had been single for three years, countless hopes rose in his heart. But he never thought of it. Before he had figured out how to pick up the mother and son together, he heard that she was going to marry Dr. Hong and was looking around the house. He didn''t want to be a concubine, but wanted to marry someone openly... Today, I got a letter. Knowing that they were looking at the house in Xicheng District, he couldn''t help but come and have a look at her and bao''er. She''s getting married. What about him? What about my son?


    He folded his lips, lowered his eyelids, hesitated and said, "in fact, I, I also set up a clothes grave for your mother and son - I, I don''t know whether the child in your belly is a son or a daughter... I think you must be looking forward to a son... Standing at the foot of the Wu family ancestral grave in Xishan."

 Chapter 246

    Ke min''s heart is also turned upside down. Did he ever find himself after he came back? Did he think he was dead? Did he even set up a clothes grave for himself? She also stood at the foot of the Wu family''s ancestral grave... She was a concubine''s room. According to the rules, she couldn''t enter the ancestral grave. Did he want to come and offer incense for himself when offering sacrifices to his ancestors? But that day, the eldest lady''s sneering and sarcastic face... Ashamed to commit suicide with her coachman for more than ten years... The disdainful eyes of the maid mother-in-law... Such unforgettable humiliation and sadness... These are still shaking in front of her eyes... Why have you made efforts in the past three years? Is it to return to the Wu family and face this situation again? Do you repeat it day by day for the sadness you will never forget?


    She took a deep breath, and she finally understood that he was him and the Wu family was the Wu family. As a concubine room, it can never be his concubine room alone, but only the concubine room of the Wu family.


    He came to find himself. Did he represent him or the Wu family? Thinking of his eyes on bao''er, the answer is self-evident.


    She thought and said with a sneer, "there are many things that Uncle Wu doesn''t know! Do you know why you are young and strong, with countless concubines, but now people are empty and their children are difficult? " Consider it her last gift to him.


    Wu Zhen''s eyes flashed, stepped forward and said, "what do you know?"


    Ke min smiled. "You might as well go back and ask your good wife? Why can''t those pregnant concubines keep their children? If they have any difficult problems, they can go to the health mother and baby center to see my husband. My husband is now a master of gold. "


    Wu Zhen was silent for a long time before he said, "I know." Originally wanted to say that she could set up a house outside without going back to the Wu family, but she couldn''t say it. One is a nameless outer room, the other is a married wife. Fools know how to choose.


    Ke min added, "in that case, if there''s nothing wrong, our couple will go back first." She took Hong Quan''s hand and was about to leave.


    Wu Zhen grabbed her other arm, and there was a kind of unspeakable and unidentified pain in her eyes. "For so many years, I still don''t know what you want?" If he does, is there a chance?


    Ke Min stared into his eyes and said word by word, "I''d like to be a man with one heart and white heads."


    Wu Zhen let her go¡° The word "one heart" was bitten by her accurately and heavily, and an arrow pierced her heart. He is the eldest son of the Wu family. He always bears a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. Moreover, he has been difficult to bear children, and he can''t do that there is only one woman around him.


    He was glad he didn''t say what he thought about the outside room. If he said it, he would insult her.


    He couldn''t help thinking, if he had left her in other hospitals in Jiangnan and didn''t return to Kyoto, what would it be like now?


    For a long time, Wu Zhencai asked in a dumb voice, "what about bao''er? He is the eldest son of the Wu family. He could inherit a large amount of industry, start at the age of three, practice martial arts at the age of five, and enjoy the best in the world. If you want to marry in the future, you can also choose a good daughter-in-law who is worthy of the family. "


    Ke min took a deep breath and said, "not to mention whether your wife can allow him to grow up safely. Even if he grows up safely, what''s the best look like? Remake another you? Your mother gave your favorite daughter-in-law. Isn''t she a good daughter-in-law? so what? Let your story repeat itself on boa? "


    Wu Zhenru was struck by lightning and staggered back two steps, unable to speak any more.


    Hong Quan now understood it and said to him sincerely, "bao''er was given a great name by the grace of the queen. He will be Hong Huanchen in the future. You are you, the Wu family is the Wu family. If you come to see bao''er personally as a father, I''m very welcome. But if you or the Wu family want to take him back to the Wu family, I will die and will not agree. "


    Ke min looked at Hong Quan with tears in her eyes and couldn''t say a word.


    Hong Quan gently took her shoulder and said, "bao''er will not lose his biological father. He will only have one more father to love him."


    Wu Zhen also looked at him with a shocked face and remained silent.


    Hong Quan reconfirmed, "there''s nothing else to say, right? Then let''s go? " His arm around her shoulder increased his strength. He never felt that he could hold his head so high. Beside her, he is about to marry his wife in the open market. He can''t hesitate a step!


    Ke min nodded with tears in her eyes. Tears fell to the ground with her actions, making her see the road more clearly. She let Hong Quan take her and boarded the carriage. Entering the curtain of the car, I found that bao''er had fallen asleep in the arms of Chimonanthus chinensis. She carefully took bao''er from Lamei''s arms, looked at his sleeping face, and couldn''t help bursting into tears.


    Lamei looked at Dr. Hong sitting aside and said respectfully, "maidservant, go out and sit." He lifted the curtain, sat outside the curtain, stared at the broad shoulders and backs of the path, and remembered his silent company behind him when he took bao''er out of the loop every day


    Hong Quan moved to Ke min and took her and bao''er in his arms


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    A month later, Hong Quan asked someone to carry his thirty-six bride price to the backyard of the mother and baby hall.


    The next day, Ke min asked people to carry the thirty-six dowry and the twelve dowry he had increased to the new house in wusifang.


    The third day is the official day set by the state media. Hong Quan rode on a high horse and carried her from the healthy mother and baby hall to the five Temple Square with eight sedans.


    Ke min sat in the sedan chair with a red covered face and tears streaming down her face.


    Across the brazier, she was led forward by red silk. Mrs. Si Li shouted, "worship heaven and earth -"


    She stared at her big feet and bowed down.


    "Second worship the high hall -" she was stunned. He was an orphan and had no high Hall... Did she worship the memorial tablets of his parents?


    Without much thought, the red silk had led her to bow down.


    "Husband and wife worship -"


    "Into the bridal chamber -"


    She arranged the new house with Xiaoji and Xiaoguai several days in advance.


    It''s strange to think that she is the first bride to decorate her new house


    Hong Quan had no friends, and naturally no one came to make his wedding. Many women''s family members volunteered to come and sit with me.


    That is, after the groom picks the cover for the bride and drinks a glass of wine, the groom wants to socialize on the table. When the bride sits alone, she can have women''s family members to sit and talk with her.


    Ke min looked at these people in surprise, some familiar and some unfamiliar, but almost without exception, they were customers of Xiyan health care center and healthy mother and baby center.


    I can''t help laughing. "Did you come to see me?"


    A lady smiled and said, "we''ve all received your great kindness. How can we not come and cheer on such a day?"


    The other lady said, "who says no? If it weren''t for you, would my child be able to live or not? "


    "Pooh, Pooh, it''s a happy day. Don''t say these depressed words. We should just keep in mind the kindness that boss Keda and Dr. Hong have shown us. " A voice interrupted her.


    Ke min was a little embarrassed. "We''re just doing our best. Don''t be so polite."


    The crowd began to laugh and talk. They didn''t leave until lunchtime.


    Xiaoji and Xiaoguai brought food for her. When she finished eating, they served her to remove Zhucui and wash. They also went to the small yard next to bao''er for the bride. They knew that bao''er had been playing excitedly for a day and fell asleep, so they said goodbye to the bride and went back.


    Ke min sat down beside the bed and waited for Hong Quan quietly.


    She is no longer a new woman, but her heart is like a young girl in love, with a trace of uneasiness, a trace of uneasiness, a little sweetness and a little expectation. She remembered that when Xiyan Yangsheng hall developed too fast and was completely too busy, he silently supported her, unconditionally received her additional customers, took care of her everywhere when she was too busy, and pointed out problems in time. Originally, she was in charge of the pharmacy. Several times, when she was too busy to count the inventory and he found that there was a shortage of medicinal materials in time, he silently took over the work of counting the inventory of medicinal materials. Sometimes when she worked out the accounts in the middle of the night and left the accounting room, the woman could bring a bowl of hot soup noodles in time. Later I learned that he ordered the kitchen woman to prepare it for her. The empress asked her to separate the mother and baby hall. She announced the news with everyone. Three days later, a shop owner came to the door and said he was willing to rent the whole Wujin courtyard to her. Later, I learned that it was Hong Quan who went outside to look for shops after going on duty every day for the past three days... She just found someone to renovate the courtyard. When she was ready to move, she found that he had silently drawn up the list of common medicinal materials in the new museum and found several original supply medicine shops for price comparison. She just waited for her to take it and book it


    He stood beside her, far more than a doctor


    When it was almost Haishi, Hong Quan finally stumbled in.


    He staggered to the bedside and looked at the gentle eyes of the beautiful woman who had washed the lead and plain face up to the sky. He shivered in his heart. His mind suddenly became clearer, and he strongly controlled his tongue not to knot. He heard his voice: "madam, I, I''ll clean it..." so as not to smoke her with the smell of wine


    Without waiting for the beauty to say something, he stumbled to the clean room and cleaned himself up before he came out


    His thinking wife is bending over to make the bed and folding the peanuts and dates sprinkled on the bed under the pillow. Looking at her white hands against the red brocade quilt, he felt a fire burning in his heart.


    He blew out the candles nearby, leaving only the dragon and Phoenix candles far away to burn on the incense table.


    He walked forward in the dark, grabbed her little hand and handed it to his lips. It seemed that he was still dreaming and had no sense of reality. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he turned her over and pressed her under his body, hurriedly looking for her soft lips. His teeth were still tightly closed and cluttered forward. The teeth bumped hard against the teeth, as if there was no way


    "Fool!" Ke min freed his hands, held his head away from himself, smiled and ordered him, "don''t move! Relax and open your teeth a little... "


    He did it all.


    Then he felt that his soft lips were gently attached to himself, and felt a moist lilac tongue gently probing in, attracting him to play and chase with her... In an instant, he felt his blood was full of blood, and his blood began to shout... It turned out that this was the correct posture for kissing


    After a long time, he was reluctant to let her go. But when he thought of the next steps, he was eager again and hurriedly except for clothes, smooth skin and soft waist for them. For a moment, he was careful not to touch them vigorously for fear of damaging such a porcelain man... Or she guided her hand to a beautiful situation that made him crazy everywhere


    He felt the ultimate happiness in the world for the first time... And soon couldn''t help asking for the second and third time


    It was not until she was very tired and lay motionless in bed that he felt the dark and twisted a veil in the hot water basin in the corner of the room to scrub her... It was Chimonanthus chinensis who was careful and told him that he had prepared them for them... It was just that the time had been too long and the boiling water had been slightly cold... No, I had to find two little maids to serve her tomorrow


    He cleaned up and went to bed. He hugged the watery man in his arms. Unexpectedly, she could murmur and ask, "why did you say you were responsible for me that day? Tell me about it. "


    He froze... I don''t know if she was talking in her sleep.


    Ke min struggled with the remaining trace of Qingming, raised her hand, closed her eyes and said, "speak quickly! On the wedding night, I don''t want you to hide something from me... "


    When the big hat was buttoned down, he couldn''t stand it. He could only vaguely say, "I never dared to tell you that when you were in confinement, the empress performed surgery for you and hurried away from Kyoto. I helped you remove the stitches... I swore at that time that I would be responsible for you... "


    For a long time, there was no movement in his arms. He breathed a sigh. Is this a pass?


    But after a while, she suddenly sat up and stared at him angrily. Her slender little hand trembled, pointed to his nose and scolded, "you, you!" Then he closed his eyes again


    He immediately grabbed her jade hand, vigorously pulled her back to his arms, gently coaxed her, "it doesn''t matter... It doesn''t matter... We are both husband and wife..." while shaking in his mind is the picture of her long black satin hair covering the peaks in front of her chest, and swallowed his saliva.


    Her stiff body slowly softened and lay on his chest as if she were going to sleep. But damn it, she was aiming at the sensitive spot in front of him, exhaling. It was hot. It warmed his whole body again. His whole blood began to shout and boil again. Finally, he couldn''t help but turn over and press her under him

 Chapter 247

    Tengju palace.


    The Shangguan sword, who has worshipped Jin Wu, is now listening to the latest news Yan Rong has just received with Fengchang Yao Dehui, who is also a confidant of the new Lord Yin Rong of tengju state.


    Yan Rong finished, took a cup of tea on the Dragon table and took a sip.


    Shangguan Jian and Yao Dehui looked at each other and saw the rough waves in each other''s eyes.


    In just over two months, Xu zouguo has been occupied by seven prefectures and 19 counties? Daliang''s army has arrived at the foot of Xuchang City, the capital of Xu Zou. Does that mean that Xu Zou will soon perish? The capital of the country is the place where the emperor stings and lives, and it is also the place where the Treasury treasures. If the capital of the country is lost, it is almost inevitable to subjugate the country... Even if the monarch escapes, with his current strength, where can he escape and become king?


    As early as a year ago, they heard that the new king of Daliang, Jing Yuan, with his magic gun, had conquered Zisang all the way.


    They never had a chance to see the power of the magic gun. I thought it was Daliang who had arranged the internal staff in Zisang early. Although the weapons are powerful, how can they go south and East with the speed of one city a day without the corresponding human cooperation?


    What''s more, when Daliang went south, they quickly solved the danger of fighting between tengju and Zisang. Over the past ten years, tengju has been in constant civil strife, the instability of the king''s court, the strife in the harem and the dictatorship of his relatives. His national strength has long declined. Otherwise, the crown prince would not have been exiled from childhood for more than ten years.


    In those years, imperial concubine yuan, who was her sister and weak in her family, died of a blood avalanche after giving birth to Prince Rong. In the chaos, Prince Rong was replaced by a baby girl. For more than ten years, no one expected that all the princes except crown prince Jia had died at the Lord''s knee. The former Lord and the king had been busy stabilizing the "chaos of the Three Princes" in China, regardless of the stability of the harem. It was not until the military power was finally restored and the chaos of marquis Ping, marquis Kun and Marquis Lang was shaken down by thunder and stabilized the national political situation that I was surprised to realize that the Pei family, Mrs. Feishuang''s mother''s family, who had been in charge of the harem for more than ten years, had become extremely powerful. The Pei family found that king he''s spearhead had turned to themselves and felt an unprecedented crisis. They united with Mrs. Feishuang secretly to remove king he and help crown prince Jia. King he worked hard and took several years to catch the Pei family. Prince Jia was abolished as a commoner, and Mrs. Feishuang hanged herself. At this time, he and Wang Cai knew from the mammy who closely served Mrs. Feishuang that the continuous blood in the Hougong over the past ten years was due to the ruthless Mrs. Feishuang''s concealment. What made him more excited was that Xianyuan imperial concubine still had her own son outside. Immediately he wrote down his intention to make him the prince and sent shangguanjian and his party to Daliang to find the new prince.


    Shangguanjian is the brother of imperial concubine Xianyuan. When he saw Jianrong in the cool air, he saw his face seven points similar to his sister''s. it was almost certain that he was the person he was looking for. Later, he saw him take out the ancestral purple jade of Shangguan''s house and said that he wanted to carve it into a jade hairpin and give it to the beauty. He came forward to recognize it. But in any case, it can not stop the prince''s determination to carve the purple jade into a jade hairpin, nor can it force the prince to officially face his life experience and return to tengju with him. He followed secretly all the way, only to know the gratitude and resentment between the prince and Fengxin. At the moment when Fengxin fell into the Daliang palace, he took the opportunity to persuade the prince to show his identity and save her from water and fire, and suggested that the prince and Princess yuan return to tengju together. This move worked. It not only successfully forced him to take the initiative to show his identity as the crown prince of tengju state, but also agreed with him on the date of returning to tengju''s wedding. But what he never expected was that the crown prince, concubine yuan, was also a martial artist, and the crown prince was willing to break the bones of his whole body without resistance. He needed to stay in the Marquis of Guang''an for half a year


    In the past six months, he was worried day and night. He was both painful and hated. He was worried about the prince and hated the cruel heart of Princess yuan. On the one hand, he was worried about the prince''s recovery and whether the prince would leave any sequelae. If you have a disability, how can you inherit the unification in the future? Fortunately, half a year later, the prince has been able to walk down... And in the past half a year, his negotiation with Princess yuan has also made him quite awed by the means of Princess yuan... After all, he is his nephew and daughter-in-law


    Later, the party hurried back to tengju and held a grand wedding ceremony for the two at the prince''s strong request


    A few months later, Princess yuan successfully gave birth to her legitimate son Qian Yao. The prince also completely returned to normal and fully participated in tengju''s internal affairs. It has to be said that shangguanjian admired the prince''s methods.


    Mrs. Feishuang in the palace set an example. Although she hanged herself, Mrs. Jing, who was in power after her, showed great dissatisfaction with the prince and Princess yuan''s flying into the world. On the sixth day after the prince''s wedding, he gave the prince three side wives and five Teng concubines on the grounds that Princess yuan was pregnant and inconvenient to sleep. It is said that the prince ignored the eight women at the beginning and only hung them in an independent courtyard. However, the eight women were ambitious. They thought they had the support of Mrs. Jing in the palace. They often went to the main hospital to splash, trip and even poison. None of them could have expected that the gorgeous Crown Princess yuan was not only excellent in martial arts, but also good at medicine and poison. Ordinary tricks were not enough in front of her.


    The crown princess was annoyed and began to fight back one day. One day, suddenly, the eight women lost their voice after drinking the lotus seed and Lily soup sent by Princess yuan. The two arrogant wives, Xu Shi, who had never been reprimanded in the house, rushed to the bedroom of Princess yuan and asked for theory. Princess yuan slapped them out of the house and hit a rockery three feet away. One broke his waist and the other broke his neck and died on the spot. When the prince came back, he only smiled faintly. The other six were silent.


    Every few days after that, Princess yuan sent people to eat all kinds of food and let people stare at them. They soon found that the food there was filled with drugs they had prepared or wanted to do secretly. A few people were frightened and dared to refuse to eat. They were mercilessly choked and poured down by the tiger backed mothers. Two women took the lead in responding and invited themselves to become monks at the place of Princess yuan. Prince yuan Fei should be good. The next day, the two women disappeared together. No one knows where they are going.


    A few days later, Princess yuan''s people found out that a reckless concubine had prepared heding red before it could be used. As like as two peas, the spirit almost leave the body in horror. The other three people questioned to know what was in it.


    Princess yuan, the crown prince, sent out her personal maid for them to choose. One was to drink the contents of the bottle, and the other was to sign a contract of voluntary sale. Where else could they choose? They had to press their fingerprints in tears. Almost immediately someone came and took them away.


    When the news was sent to the palace, Mrs. Jing saw that in less than a month, eight people died and became monks, and several others were sold cleanly and angrily, but she dared not provoke her again.


    Prince Rong''s changes after returning to tengju are obvious to all. He is not only diligent in political affairs, but also tries to make up for the vine like complex relations related to tengju''s important internal affairs. Shangguanjian also once drank too much with the prince. It was heard that Princess yuan persuaded him to concentrate on the government and assist the king after his wedding. The prince was never involved in major and minor affairs in the backyard of the house. Shangguan Jian''s anger towards Princess yuan about the prince''s injury in the bottom of his heart disappeared. It is his latest evaluation of the crown prince, imperial concubine yuan.


    Sure enough, Prince Rong won the recognition and praise of the whole king for a series of vigorous and resolute actions. Zisang attacked the rear border again and lost three cities. The prince took the lead and led the soldiers to resist the enemy. A few days later, I heard that Jingyuan had set up troops in Zisang, which greatly alleviated the pressure on the southwest of tengju. He, who has been following the prince, guessed that perhaps the Lord of the Wuliang kingdom came to save the vine by surrounding the purple vine in memory of his old relationship with the prince


    Who ever thought that Zisang, who seemed to have strong troops, died in just a month. The powerful cannon has always stood on Helan Mountain, which echoes the Teng Ju border. No one in tengju had seen the real power of the divine gun, but no one dared to act rashly in the face of a strong enemy. The longer the confrontation, the weaker shangguanjian''s original confidence in Daliang''s impossibility of sending troops to tengju, replaced by a growing fear. Because the other party is quietly stationed there, not respect, but like a kind of contempt, a kind of contempt that does not pay attention to the other party at all - it seems that you can easily subdue tengju at any time.


    Later, the news of the subjugation of datan came, and this fear became more and more popular. Then Da Liang held the four seals of the son of heaven and changed the country''s name. It is said that there are green forest forces around to support the reunification of the five countries. Hearing the wind, they gathered in the cool... King he was overwhelmed and fell seriously ill. He finally died a month ago, and Prince Rong succeeded to the throne smoothly.


    Then came today the news that Xu Zou was about to perish.


    They all remember that Daliang launched a war against Xu Zou at the end of August, but it has only been more than two months... They once again realized the devastating consequences brought by that terrible weapon... Where did Zisang come from the divine artillery?


    Yao Dehui, like him, is thinking about the possibility of terror


    For a moment, the study was silent.


    King Rong did not ask them for advice, nor did he ask them what to do in the future?


    It seems that Wang Rong already knows


    If you want to have a different fate from the other three countries, there is only one ending


    Shangguanjian was filled with strong disappointment and helplessness


    He saw Rong Wang''s eyes staring at Yao Dehui and suddenly understood what Wang meant.


    Wang wants Yao Dehui to say it.


    He also understood how such a decision could be said from the king''s mouth


    Although for the king, it may be as simple as submitting to the old lord, and there may be no reluctance at all, for their courtiers, it is the hatred of weakness and the humiliation of submission... How will the Lord humiliate their courtiers and soldiers when they die?


    Yao Dehui thought for a long time, sweating on his forehead, and finally just knelt down, "Mr. Wang, please let the old minister take some time and come up with a perfect plan..."


    Yan Rong''s face was as heavy as water and nodded, "you should step back first."

 Chapter 248

    On the fourth day, the tengju palace held a great discussion.


    On that day, shangguanjian announced to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty that Xuchang City, the capital of xuzou state, was under attack three days ago. The Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar and everyone was in danger. The discussion on tengju''s future plans has been going on for three days.


    North Korea and China are divided into two factions, one is the main war and the other is the main peace.


    The main war faction advocates to defend the country to the death, fight Daliang to the end with the strength of the whole country, and safeguard the dignity of tengju.


    The advocate of peace faction Zhang sent officials to make peace, agreed to cede even half of the city, and even the candidate for the princess was selected, that is, the woman who replaced Prince Rong and was adopted as Wang Ji. Since I have enjoyed the royal family''s sacrifice as Wang Ji, I naturally need to make contributions at a critical juncture.


    The main war faction is righteous and strict, and looks back on death.


    The moderates are compassionate and understand the great cause.


    Neither of the two men can persuade anyone.


    At this moment, there were two people, one main battle and one main harmony, which made Yan Rong''s intuitive skull ache.


    He has just taken over Teng juguo. The main battle faction is mainly those veterans in the army. He has not yet fully mastered it. Veterans want to fight every year, otherwise they will become heroes and have no place to play. And they knew that if Daliang occupied tengju like Zisang datan, those ordinary soldiers might be incorporated into the new army, but the generals must be the chickens killed to watch... Which army can use the generals of prisoners of war? It''s also a word of death. Why not die with dignity? Although peace talks are almost an option, these generals who killed a way out of thousands of troops in the battlefield know that the emperor Daliang, as a monarch who mastered the cutting-edge powerful weapons, how could they let go of tengju, the weakest of the four countries? How can the only beautiful city meet the ambition of emperor Daliang to unify the five countries? Today''s stand still, I''m afraid that the emperor Daliang was thinking about his old relationship with his country''s leader. When Daliang unified the four countries, how could this small country be allowed to be free?


    The moderates are the old and important officials in the court. The old ministers tried to protect their ancestors'' foundation. They would rather offer Wang Ji to cede the border city than fight for a little chance to survive. Most of the important officials in the court are scholars who have been immersed in officialdom for decades. They usually have a deep-rooted relationship with the people in the court, and their influence on the whole court can not be underestimated. If the country is subjugated, they are often unable to be alone. But they heard that the former Zisang''s important officials were sent to the border city as coolies, and the women were sent to Kyoto as slaves and maidservants. Most of the things left in the original Zisang bureaucratic system are young officials with low power, simple imperial relations and willing to submit to the new monarch. It''s easy to say, but hard to do. Not to mention the position of the scholar family in the new situation, even the new king may not be willing to watch the scholar family preserve their strength and hide their strength. Therefore, for these noble families, it is the best choice to delay the arrival of the war as much as possible, so that they can make arrangements and arrangements, minimize losses and preserve their strength.


    Therefore, the two men did not give in to each other and quarreled endlessly.


    Yan Rong was about to make them quiet for a while, but he heard a sharp "report -". He was refreshed and knew that the turn was coming


    A soldier came running in, sweating.


    At one glance, Yan Rong was filled with disappointment.


    The soldier was dressed as an ordinary post soldier with a red flag in his hand, which showed that although the news he reported was important, it was not directly related to tengju state.


    Sure enough, the soldier handed a little sheepskin roll and said, "serve the country Lord. This is the latest news from xuzou and Xuchang city."


    Next to him, the Chamberlain came, took the lamb skin roll, ran and handed it to the big supervisor in front of Yan Rong. The big supervisor opened it and glanced at it quickly, and then presented it to the Lord.


    Yan Rong took it, opened it and glanced at the civil and military officials.


    The ministers looked at him eagerly.


    He said in a deep voice, "as the ministers expected, the city of Xuchang fell, the Lord poked himself, and Xu Zou died."


    There was an uproar.


    Although this was the expected ending, the ending was bloody in front of us. The sense of crisis came, and the previous sense of urgency suddenly increased several times.


    Everyone thinks of their own destiny. It may be their turn to face the hatred of national subjugation, accompanied by the destruction of their families and the flying of flesh and blood... The ancestral family''s foundation is not guaranteed, and the miserable fate that their wives and children will face


    For a moment, there is war and peace. It seems that there is no way out... All waiting for them is destruction


    The two factions are silent for a time... If there is no war and discord, there is only one way out


    Those ideas on paper are completely worthless in the face of bloody war


    At this time, Yao Dehui stood up and said, "Mr. Wang, the situation is pressing now. Time waits for no man. The next goal of Daliang is my tengju. Tengju is the weakest of the five countries. Please make plans as early as possible. "


    Yan Rong said wearily, "what are you going to do? Didn''t Zhong Aiqing discuss it for three days? Are you sure whether it''s war or peace¡°


    All the officials at the bottom looked like each other. The only way out appeared in my mind, but no one dared to say it first


    Yao Dehui looked around and stopped talking.


    Yan Rong saw this and asked, "what good suggestions does Yao Aiqing have?"


    Yao Dehui arched his hands and said, "I''m afraid it''s too late to negotiate peace now, but there''s no chance of winning the war with him. The minister is willing to be a sinner for thousands of years. He dared to suggest a word, "he looked around, the expected light flashed in the eyes of the ministers, clenched his teeth, and said in a deep voice," down. "


    The crowd was in an uproar again, but soon they kept silent again. Everyone began to let go of the ideas that had just appeared in their minds but did not dare to think deeply, and began to think about the pros and cons of surrender and the possible outcome in their hearts. This is a method that none of the other three countries have taken, and no one knows what the final outcome will be. But according to common sense, it must be better to surrender without war than to subjugate the country with all-out resistance?


    Yao Dehui said again, "with the help of magic guns in Daliang, our army will lose if it meets. Although there are finished eggs under the nest? But subjecting to Daliang can at least protect the people''s well-being from it. We can also protect the foundation of Yan Family for decades. The minister is dull, and is willing to send the envoy Da Liang to hand over the surrender watch. If Daliang needs to sacrifice blood as a watch, I''d like to offer my head on my head.


    There was silence in the hall, and the dropping of needles could be heard.


    Surrender will not change the outcome of defeat, but it is more moderate and more radical than the Democrats. For a moment, everyone saw new hopes and opportunities in it.


    There was a faint excitement spreading out in the hall.


    Then I heard a sharp cry, "report -"


    A figure in a war robe with flying bamboo on his back stumbled in, "report -"


    Everyone faces fear.


    Only eight hundred miles of urgent military affairs can use such a messenger.


    Usually something very, very urgent has happened.


    Did Daliang start a war against tengju?


    Everyone thought of this at the same time.


    The soldier gasped, "report - King, hurry up eight hundred miles. Three miles outside Hongcheng, a border city in the south of China, was attacked by the Daliang army! "


    Yan rongmeng stood up, "what happened?"


    The soldier took another two breaths and said, "at Mao o''clock yesterday, there was a sound of thunder on the Hongshan mountain outside Hongcheng. After more than ten sounds, there was no movement. General Yang sent someone for reconnaissance and found that the whole Hongshan mountain had completely disappeared. The walls of Sanli Chengguo have also been affected, and there are many gaps cracked by boulders. The soldiers stationed in the garrison Guo said that when the thunder sounded, the earth shook and the mountains shook, and people and animals were frightened. "


    The Hall fell into silence again.


    That''s the power of magic gun


    This is the last straw to crush all civil and military officials.


    If they did not know the power of the divine cannon before, this exercise gave them a very intuitive and strong feeling, and completely broke all their fluke psychology.


    Shangguan sword took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "Lord Yao is right. I agree with you. Please make a decision as soon as possible."


    Shangguan sword is the uncle of the state, the loyal minister of the new king and the representative of the interests of the royal family. Even he has stood up and expressed his position. Can others have a better choice?


    With this in mind, all the civil and military officials knelt down and bowed down one after another, "minister, I beg the emperor''s decision."


    The loud voices of the people echoed in the hall for a long time.


    In the final analysis, surrender, the most humiliating and loss of interests, must be the head of a country.


    Yan Rong was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "so, let Yao Aiqing and Shangguan Aiqing go out to make an envoy."


    After a moment of silence, it rang through the hall: "you are wise..."


    In the evening, when Yan Rong returned to Fengming palace where Fengxin was located, he saw that Fengxin was playing with his son with the wooden Luban lock sent by Zhuo Xi a few days ago. Seeing Yan Rong coming back, Qian Yao stood up and saluted him like a model, "see your father."


    Yan Rong strode forward happily, picked up his two-year-old son and held him in his arms, "Yao''er, do you feel better today?"


    Yin Qianyao replied cleverly, "back to my father, Yao''er is much better." He looked at Fengxin. Fengxin also smiled and said, "he was blown by the wind when he fed fish in the garden two days ago. He would be fine if he had a rest for two days."


    The son raised the Luban lock in his hand and said proudly, "father, look! This is the Luban lock that Aunt Xi asked someone to bring me! I can spell it! "


    Yan Rong nodded his nose, "Yao''er is great!"


    Yan Rong put his son on the ground and motioned the nurse standing aside to take him back to rest. The nurse saluted and took the little prince out.


    Feng Xin poured a cup of tea from the desk and handed it over. "I''m tired today?"


    Yan Rong held her in his arms, took the teacup with one hand and drank it, "it''s finally finished." In fact, he didn''t care about a major event that decided the life and death of a country just discussed in the court, as if they were only discussing what to eat for dinner today. Because of this decision, he had made it long ago, but it took a few days for all the ministers to willingly accept this proposal


    After drinking the tea, he was about to return the cup to Fengxin. He wondered, "Hey, why does this tea seem a little different?"


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "you''ve been busy with State Affairs recently. I''ve added some Astragalus membranaceus and medlar to make you feel better today. You don''t know senior brother''s ambition! The reunification of the five countries will happen sooner or later. Haven''t you made plans? "


    Yan Rong sighed, "it''s one thing to know yourself, another thing to let others know, and another thing to let others know, accept and implement."


    Feng Xin put his hand around his waist, hid in his arms and said, "let him realize this wish quickly. I really want to go back to Kyoto City to see Zhuo Xi and them. Their little yu''er is not as big as our Yao''er. I''m looking forward to seeing how our Yao''er bullies their little yu''er! "


    Yan Rong smiled, "what did you say? Like you have deep hatred, why should our son bully their son? "


    Feng Xin said lazily, "don''t you know? Elder martial brother bullied me from childhood. Zhuo Xi also bullied me! It is not a gentleman to take revenge! "


    Zhuoxi bullied her? So she''s talking about the time she was poisoned? He tightened his soft body in his arms, smiled and said in her ear, "I want to thank her! If it weren''t for her, how could I be with my beloved? "


    "So you promised us to go to the capital city together?"


    "Well, since shangguanjian and Yao Dehui are going to be ambassadors, why don''t we dress up and revisit our hometown?"


    Feng Xin laughed, "that''s a good idea!"


    He was tengju on his way back. He had only participated in the political affairs of a country for more than a year. Speaking of it, even if he is a king, he doesn''t necessarily have deep feelings for his father and son, let alone his responsibility and love for this country and its people. For him, it was better for him to stay in the palace to deal with government affairs than to be a dark guard around Jing Yuan. Moreover, with his wife and son around him, he has no intention of being diligent and loving the people. Now there is such an opportunity to unload the burden, why not?


    But then again, he was really interested in the magic gun. Yes, but the king of a country can''t really practice weapons. It''s meaningless to listen to others describe the power of that new weapon from a distance. He has long wanted to return to Beijing. It is said that Jian Yi attacked datan with divine artillery, and that Jian Yun presided over the main work of the military academy. The military academy also has valuable art of war and is trying to develop new weapons. So many interesting things that he can''t see or touch. He can only "hear" in tengju far away. Why doesn''t it make his heart itch?


    One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. The king of a country who had surrendered was either imprisoned or killed. However, he seems to have no fear of life at all. I''m just a family of three. Besides, I''m still a former subordinate of the master, and my wife is the master''s junior sister. I don''t have a way to live, do I? On the contrary, it is the important officials and families of the imperial court who have to face the reshuffle of the situation and whether they can protect their lives or not. But what does this have to do with him?


    Thinking of the military books and new weapons of the military academy, he suddenly filled with new expectations for his new life in the future.

 Chapter 249

    Zhuo Xi was surprised and delighted when he received the news of Ke min''s marriage to Hong Quan. It''s amazing that in the past two years, she didn''t know that they had long been interested in Lang''s concubine. I''m glad that Ke min and Dabao finally have a complete family. Dabao has to give himself the name Huanchen and has the surname Hong. As long as Hong Quan moves faster and lets Huanchen join the ancestral spectrum and enter the government for the record, the plan of the Wu family to rob Dabao back to the Wu family is empty.


    Chunnuan also happily held the wedding candy Ke min sent to the palace. "Madam, although so many new couples are married this year, only sister Ke min seriously sent the wedding candy. Would you like to try one? " When Jing Hua and Wu Xing got married, they also sent clothes, shoes and socks, but they were all gifts from their new daughter-in-law to their family. One is an aunt and the other is a sister. They always give some clothes, shoes and socks to meet each other when they recognize their relatives. At the same time, they are afraid of eating and can''t enter the palace casually, so they don''t dare to send food in at all. What''s more, happy candy and cakes are precious to the people, but they are no longer common to the house of princes and nobles? Only Ke min, who could not touch the word "relatives" and had a deep friendship with the empress, recklessly sent happy candy to the empress.


    One side of the Spring Festival Gala is bringing tea in, and I want to stop talking.


    Chunnuan also saw it and said with a smile, "don''t worry, elder sister of the Spring Festival Gala and elder sister Ke min will not harm us?"


    With that, she had torn off the sugar coating on the outer bread and stuffed one into her mouth.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t like sweets, but smiled and said, "take it to those little girls outside."


    She knows that in this era, such happy candy is a rare thing that ordinary people can''t buy. Although Rao Shimin''s wedding was a low-key affair, the maid of honor she sent to give gifts came back after drinking and said to her that the dishes at the wedding banquet were prepared by the cook of Tianxiang building, the first brand in Kyoto. The whole table was sent to the house. The wedding wine poured for the guests was a bottle of carved wine for two liang silver. The accompanying gift was a complete set of maintenance products produced by Xiyan Yangsheng hall, The value is at least three Liang silver. Neither side had any relatives, only invited some neighbors and good customers and friends. When ordinary people have a wedding, the neighbors usually have two strings of money. Some ladies with heads and faces will probably follow more. But the maid in waiting said that in this way, she also bought nearly ten tables of banquet. It can be seen that their popularity is still very good.


    When asked about the layout of the new house, chunnuan rushed to say, "I accompanied sister Ke min to decorate the new house two days before the wedding. You don''t know, madam. She hung the colorful glass beads you gave her on the curtain as a hanging foot! The tent on the bed was made of gold and flowers. Beside the dressing table is a full face of nine carp playing bamboo double-sided embroidery! The window screen uses Xiang gauze, which is twelve Liang silver! Originally, the maidservant looked at the little house that entered the second place, but it was just a jasper family. Now, as long as some people look at it, they should also feel the low-key luxury of the owner, and it''s not too much to say that it is a scholarly family inherited for a hundred years. A whole set of six thousand Buddha pictures painted by Wu Mingzi were hung in the hall! At first glance, he is a good and rich family. Although I don''t know whether the painting is true or false, who dares to hang it in the hall if it''s not authentic? The maidservant joked with sister Ke Min that such luxury is not afraid of being missed by thieves? But sister Ke Min said, "now that the people have no time to live and work in peace and contentment in Daliang Dazhi, how can anyone be a thief?" Chunnuan puffed his cheeks and said, "Oh, my maid said she would never help sister Ke min to spread this to the emperor and the queen. I forgot it today!"


    Zhuo Xi didn''t know how precious the Thousand Buddhas painted by Wu Mingzi. Later, she asked Jing Yuan to know that Wu Mingzi was a famous painter in the previous dynasty, and the most famous one was her Thousand Buddhas. Sometimes her Thousand Buddhas are a set of several, which can be combined into a complete story. Therefore, in today''s antique market, thousands of gold are hard to find. Even in the imperial palace of Daliang, only three thousand Buddhas she painted can be found out, which are only independent paintings.


    Zhuo Xi knows that Ke Min has some private money. When the old lady of the Wu family came to see her that day, she was dressed with pearls and jewels. She looked like an upstart. You can know how rich the Wu family is. Since Ke min used to be their concubine, she naturally led a luxurious life. In the past two years, although she committed herself to Xiyan Yangsheng hall and did not buy any real estate and land on a large scale, she gave her a lot of bonus silver, and her savings over the past two years were quite considerable. Occasionally, I see some jewelry with her, which are exquisite and introverted, and look valuable. How can a woman who can live like this wronged her wedding? Although Hong Quan has bought a house, it seems that the value of all kinds of antique treasures and inconspicuous utensils stuffed in the corners of his house far exceeds the value of the house... Hong Quan may not know that he has married a rich woman?


    Zhuo Xi thought and couldn''t help laughing. She found that her mind was far away and pulled her eyes back to the fold on the case. But suddenly I heard ouch, looked up, covered my stomach with spring warmth, his face was like blood droplets, his eyes were red, and fell to his knees on the ground. One side of the Spring Festival Gala hurriedly came forward and held her in his arms.


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. He got up and walked quickly to her, and put his hand on her pulse.


    However, Zhuo Xi''s face changed greatly after two breath Kung Fu. He knew that chunnuan was an image of poisoning. She told chunzao to ask for a doctor. She said to the Spring Festival Gala with a heavy face, "those happy candies haven''t been distributed out yet. Let''s take them in for the palace!"


    The Spring Festival Gala hurriedly called Chunqing in. Chunqing answered and went away. After a while, she came in with the bag of sugar.


    Zhuo Xi asked coldly, "can a little girl outside eat this candy?"


    "No, no, Xia Yi has just taken it out and distributed it to several little girls. They all think it''s a good thing and can hold it. They all want to keep it and bring it home... A total of 36. Sister chunnuan ate one, and the remaining 35 are here." There are several things sent to the palace.


    Zhuo Xi nodded and motioned her to put the sugar on the ground. "Let Chun come and hold Xiaobai early."


    A few days ago, when she saw Xiaobai, she said with emotion, is it because it has no use now, so it''s fat like this? Unexpectedly, such a poisoning incident occurred today.


    The pulse of chunnuan is extremely disordered. Zhuo Xi can''t judge what kind of toxicity it is. But she felt her skin burning like fire. Holding her Spring Festival Gala, she said in horror, "madam, spring is warm. What''s the matter with her? Her body is so hot that I can''t hold it... "


    Zhuo Xi can''t judge. She only knows that she needs to cool down when she has a fever. Such rapid warming is by no means a good thing. She immediately told Chun Qing, "immediately prepare a bath bucket, fill it with cold water, and then go to the cellar to get some ice. It''s in the east room. " Speaking later, the voice became severe.


    Chunqing shivered. She had never seen the empress so panic. She didn''t dare to delay for a moment and went down to do it immediately.


    While talking, doctor Huang came in and saluted when he saw the queen.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly said, "don''t be polite. Come and see what''s wrong with her?"


    Chunnuan has closed his eyes, as if he was going to faint.


    Doctor Huang came over, touched her pulse, threw away her hand, turned over her eyes, touched her cheek with a white silk pad, looked at her mouth, and then knelt on the ground in horror and kowtowed to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi said in a deep voice, "say."


    Doctor Huang fell on the ground. "My mother, my old minister is incompetent and can''t solve the poison."


    "You didn''t even ask, you know she was poisoned? What kind of poison is this? Say! " Zhuo Xi asked sternly.


    Doctor Huang said tremblingly, "if the old minister doesn''t make a wrong judgment, this poison is called tianzhuoxiang, which is one of the four strange poisons in the world. Those who burn incense inside will die... "


    "You''re talking nonsense!" Zhuo Xi shouted loudly, almost going to grab his hair crown and let him look up to see if she was lying¡° What about the antidote? Since you know the name of this poison, do you know the antidote? "


    Doctor Huang trembled even more, "minister, minister is incompetent..."


    The Spring Festival Gala also burst into tears, "empress..."


    A joss stick, a joss stick, Zhuo Xi''s mind was buzzing with these three words. A column of incense is half an hour... In such a short time, don''t say, it''s impossible to find the antidote material. By the way, Xiaobai! She screamed again, "early spring, early spring, is Xiaobai coming?"


    As soon as the voice fell, I saw chunzao holding Xiaobai in his arms, stumble in, with tears on his face and wailing, "mother, mother, Xiaobai..."


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t believe looking at Xiaobai in chunzao''s arms. She was suddenly cold. Xiaobai closed her eyes, covered with blood, and lay powerlessly in chunzao''s arms


    Chunqing hurried in and said, "madam, the cold water is ready and the ice has been brought."


    Now is not the time to be sad... Zhuo Xi gave a thrill, closed her eyes and said to the Spring Festival Gala, "first take her to the east room and put her in the bath bucket. Add some ice. No, put some ice in her mouth first. " Several people did it.


    Zhuo Xi''s brain turned quickly, and then called speechless, "come on! Go and invite manager Ke Da to the palace, and doctor Hong! " She once heard Fengxin say that there were four strange poisons in the world. On that day, the blood fragrance and the sky cold fragrance came from the feather clothing door. I''m afraid that the burning incense on that day was also related to the feather clothing door... Why didn''t Xianglan tell her that the feather clothing door also has the function of making poisons? And it''s still the four strange poisons in the world? Before Wu Xing sent a wordless token, she knew that something must have happened to Xianglan. I haven''t heard from her for so many days. I don''t know what happened to her?

 Chapter 251

    Zhuo Xi was happy at first, then hurriedly asked, "a Xin, can you save it? You save it! "


    Fengxin let chunzao, who was also surprised, gently put Xiaobai on the table padded with fine cloth, and asked chunzao to fetch water and wipe the blood on his body for him. After being wiped clean, the three found that there was no trauma on Xiaobai, and the blood spilled from his mouth.


    Fengxin asked chunzao to pick a few thin bamboo pieces, took a knife to cut the bamboo pieces round, took out a small porcelain bottle, evenly applied the ointment on the fine white cloth, gently wrapped it around the seven inches of Xiaobai, and then tied it tightly with thin bamboo pieces and thin rope.


    Zhuo Xi asked suspiciously, "is this a fracture? Me, "


    Feng Xin said, "someone should have interrupted its seven inches with a stone."


    Zhuo Xi looked cold. He had to hit the snake seven inches. In fact, "seven inches" didn''t mean the heart of the snake, but the spine of the snake. Xiaobai is not an ordinary snake with no strength to bind chickens. It even has rich experience in fighting with ordinary soldiers. He can come and go freely in the palace and accurately interrupt Xiaobai''s seven inches. He must be a person with extraordinary martial arts. But after all, the spine is a place where biological neurons are concentrated. If the spine of a snake is interrupted, even if it can be connected, will there be any sequelae? Zhuo Xi thought, a heart sinking more and more.


    Feng Xin also said, "it seems that your palace is not as safe as I imagined?"


    Zhuo Xi sighed a long sigh. After entering the palace for so long, she was bumped into by Fengxin for the first time. But fortunately, Feng Xin came, otherwise she didn''t know what would happen to Xiaobai and chunnuan.


    Zhuo Xi pressed the pain in her heart and told chunzao to take good care of Xiaobai. She took Fengxin to her seat and asked, "when did you get to Kyoto? Did your little Mo''er bring it? "


    Feng Xin looked at her with a smile, "of course I brought it! Otherwise, how can I see how he bullied your little yu''er? "


    Zhuo Xi automatically ignored the second half of her words, sat up straight and asked, "where is he now? Don''t bother him. Let him come in and have a rest. " For two generations, she has no experience of giving birth to children, let alone the experience of exchanging her son''s love with her best friend. Are you tired after waiting outside for so long?


    Ziqing came up and said, "if you go back to the Queen''s mother, mother song and I were waiting outside with Prince Mo just now. After the queen came in, she didn''t summon the will to hand it out. One who claimed to be mother Wu saw us and asked mother song to take Prince Mo into the side hall to have a rest."


    Zhuo Xi listened and relaxed. Sure enough, the Spring Festival Gala brought in tea and said with a smile, "mother Wu said that the ink Prince of the Queen''s mother is playing with our prince Yu. Please don''t worry about the queen and the queen. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead and said, "it''s a pity that you can say so hard." It''s the Queen''s mother, the Queen''s mother, the prince and the prince. Why is this so messy?


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "it won''t be messy soon."


    Eh? Zhuo Xi asked suspiciously, "what does this mean?"


    Feng Xin took a sip of the tea and said nothing.


    At this time, speechless reported to the outside, "empress, father-in-law Yuandong of the Department of criminal justice is coming."


    Zhuo Xi immediately became vigilant, "what is he doing here?" The Department of military punishment is a lynching in the inner palace. It is not easy to use. I''ve been in the palace for more than a year and haven''t used them.


    The wordless voice also lowered, "it said it was the will of the emperor."


    Zhuo Xi said helplessly, "please ask him to come in and talk." I''m afraid Jing Yuan ordered him to investigate the case.


    A thin figure came in and knelt down on the ground, "see the empress in Yuan Dong."


    "Get up and talk back."


    Yuan Dong stood up and saw Feng Xin beside the queen. He hesitated and didn''t speak.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what''s the matter, but it doesn''t hurt to say."


    Yuan Dong whispered, "the servant has given the emperor''s will to take the eunuch Yigan of Ning''an palace to the Wu Xing division for questioning. But I don''t know which group of palace maids and eunuchs the slave should take first. I''ve come to ask my mother to show me. "


    Zhuo Xi helps her forehead again. There are several palace eunuchs in Ning''an palace. If the military punishment department takes all the palace eunuchs at one time, Ning''an palace will not work. Yuan Dong also has eyes. For important matters such as investigating a case, it is natural to take away the maid eunuch closely served by the queen first and ask questions at the first time. He came and asked her which group to take first? It can be seen that Yuan Dong wants to investigate the case and come to explore his own style. He is afraid that he has asked the wrong person for a crime. He works hard and doesn''t talk about it. He also has a grudge with himself.


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "I said, why is it so important that you still have the mind to tell me about the child? It''s the elder martial brother who has arranged it for you. "


    Zhuo Xi said angrily, "that''s because I don''t believe that the ghost came out of Ning''an Palace at all. I didn''t expect to ask them first."


    Yuan Dong listened to a sweat. Fortunately, he took this step carefully, otherwise he didn''t know when to offend the queen!


    Feng Xin smiled and whispered, "in fact, I''m also very curious. What''s going on?"


    Zhuo Xi had a flash of light and said, "Yuan Dong, you will start with the origin of this package of sugar. First go and ask the palace maids and eunuchs at the place where it happened. If there is any result, please report it to our palace. "


    Yuan Dong promised to leave.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly told Fengxin what her sister-in-law had sent a few days ago and what had happened this morning, and said, "as you said before, the burning incense came from the feather clothes door that day, and Xianglan disappeared. The wordless token she held wandered into the Jianghu. Do you think something happened to the feather clothes door? The person who did it was the feather door? "


    Feng Xin said, "Shifu once told me that although the feather clothes gate can make the four great poisons in the world, these are all means to protect the people of the royal family of the previous dynasty. It is easy not to take them out to harm people. Now that burning incense appears in Ning''an palace, the target must be you. And you are the real royal blood. I''m afraid that the feather coat door is no longer in the hands of the people of the Yu family. How could you be so relieved that Xianglan took charge of the feather gate? "


    Zhuo Xi said with a bitter smile, "that day, sun Yao wanted to die. I asked Xiang Lan and Xiao Li to persuade her. Since she was determined to die, I thought that the feather door had no strength she could use, and I didn''t want to... "Her eyes brightened," it''s sun Yao! It must have something to do with her! "


    "It''s not too late! Let''s go and see sun Yao! " Feng Xin stood up and stroked the hem with his hand.


    Zhuo Xi found that she was wearing a light cyan feifeng embroidered cloud pattern bordered robe, with a emerald jade belt hook around her waist, a circle of perforated turquoise beads on her neck, a light yellow newsilk pattern jade yuan on her wrist, and a hawksbill plate cloud Ruyi hairpin between her hair. Originally, the face of the country and the city was slightly powdered, and the whole person looked elegant, solemn and generous.


    Zhuo Xi also stood up and walked around her twice. "Tut Tut, I can''t imagine that childe Fengxin had such a mother''s demeanor in the world..."


    Feng Xin also learned from Zhuo Xi and walked around her twice and said, "tut Tut, it''s unimaginable that the flat panel little girl film in those years should have such a momentum to guide the country..."


    "Hey, who''s the little girl?" Zhuo Xi walked forward with her hand and shouted discontentedly, "praise me, why do you hurt me? I''m just young..."


    Zhuo Xi ordered wordless pendulum to drive to Bai''an palace.


    When they reached the gate of the palace, they suddenly found that Ning''an palace was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside. Her eyes twitched


    Feng Xin looked at her with a smile.


    A man dressed in the official uniform of the five life Jin Yuwei commander ran over, "next officer, Jin Yuwei commander Wang Yun, see the empress!"


    Zhuo Xi was startled. After reading it for a long time, she remembered, "are you Wang Yun? Aren''t you following Wang Feng in datan? How did you become the commander of Jin Yuwei?


    ¡±Back to the empress, General Wang sits in datan. The emperor asked the lower officer to come back first to protect the safety of the palace¡° Zhuo Xi suddenly understood that Wang Yun was the dark chess arranged by Jing Yuan in front of Wang Feng earlier. Now he is withdrawn because he has exposed his identity, or is it for other purposes?


    She nodded. "So you get up first. This palace and empress tengju king will go to Bai''an palace. You let someone go. "


    "Yes." Wang Yun answered forcefully and quickly mobilized a team and a horse to form two rows.


    The soft sedan came soon. Zhuo Xi and Feng Xin got on the soft sedan and sat together. The two guards immediately surrounded the soft sedan.


    Zhuo Xi turned her eyes upward regardless of the image


    The hyacinth looked down at her chest and leaned over to bite her ear. "Are you still young? My son is half a year old, isn''t he? Anyway, how old are you? When I saw you the year before last, I clearly felt that you were a suckling little girl. Why did you grow so exquisite and talented after only a year and a half? "


    Zhuo Xi blushed and said, "according to them, I should be the same age as Yao Yao, and I should be seventeen this year..." according to Chu Bo, she had been raised in Fengyuan before, and she shouldn''t be treated by Ke. How could she get a body like malnourished bean sprouts?


    Feng Xin also heard about her life experience, nodded and said, "are you seventeen? That''s almost... "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, "what''s almost the same?"


    "You''re seventeen, so it''s as big as me. I don''t lose calling your sister-in-law!" Feng Xin smiled brightly.


    Zhuo Xi''s face was black and said, "you called my sister-in-law before. Why is it awkward now?" She thought for a moment, "no, what are you doing today? And a mission? " Missions are usually used for negotiation.


    Thinking of the recent situation in Daliang, Zhuo Xi''s brain hole opened, "are you here to negotiate peace?" She said, opening her eyes again, "isn''t it to send a princess?"


    She remembered that half a month ago, when the news of Xu Zou''s extinction came, she knew nothing. She had just finished feeding Xiao yu''er in the bedroom and asked mother Wu to carry her down. Jing Yuan rushed to her bedroom with great strides. She is tidying up her clothes. Jing Yuan rushed in regardless, picked her up, laughed and said, "you mother and son are really my lucky stars! Xu Zou guomie! Now, there is only the last step left for the reunification of the five countries! " At that moment, she found that Jing Yuan was very concerned about the unification of the five countries.

 Chapter 252

    Xu Zou has died, and five of the six seals of the son of heaven have been in hand, leaving tengju


    So they sent a mission


    Feng Xin smiled. "Even if we want to make peace, do you agree or not?"


    Zhuo Xi thought carefully, shook her head honestly and said, "the unification of the five countries is the legacy of my father. I don''t think Jing Yuan will give up."


    The hyacinth shrugged and said, "so it''s between their men!" If you can''t make peace and fight but can''t fight, you can only bow down to be a minister... The only difference is the way you bow down to be a minister


    Zhuo Xi thought of that time and asked him, "tengju is now in the reign of Yan Rong. Are you really going to meet him on the battlefield? Even if you and he can not read the old love, what about ah Xin? She is the little younger martial sister you grew up with. She can help you and me! "


    He was silent for a long time before he said, "as long as he is in office for one day and is kind to younger martial sister, I won''t touch him for one day!"


    At that time, she didn''t know that he had sent people to Helan Mountain on the Teng Ju border to demonstrate... She thought what he said "don''t move" was really don''t move?


    If there was no peace and no war, there was only one possibility for Jing Yuan to achieve the goal of the unification of the five countries, that is, the Lord of tengju gave up on his own initiative.


    Are they going to? Zhuo Xi can''t imagine that Yin Rong, who has become the king of a country, would easily give up his wealth... However, maybe he doesn''t know him, maybe what he wants is not his wealth and power


    Thinking of this, Zhuo Xi came to Feng Xin''s ear and said, "but it''s not necessarily just a matter between men! The emperor has promised that as long as your husband is kind to you, the emperor will not touch him for one day when he is in power! "


    Feng Xin giggled, "sister-in-law, I grew up with my senior brother. Can I not understand him? How could a man like him give up such a good foundation for a little old love? "


    Zhuo Xi had to smile helplessly, "believe it or not!"


    Feng Xin looked at her seriously and suddenly said, "I seem to understand why senior brother treated you so well?"


    "Why?"


    "Because only you believe him unconditionally, and only you ask him to believe you unconditionally."


    Zhuo Xi smiled faintly. Her eyes showed a deep feeling that she was not aware of, but she stared at her and smiled, "of course, people who want to spend their whole life with themselves should trust each other. Why, can''t you trust the person next to you now? ".


    Feng Xin''s eyes drifted farther and farther, "now I can be trusted naturally, but it took me a long time to really trust him like a senior brother..."


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment. It''s understandable that a woman who has wandered the Jianghu since she was a child can see all the joys and sorrows in the world. It''s not so easy to really trust a stranger like her relatives. However, how could he confide in Jing Yuan overnight? And how could he believe his words of "don''t ask the source, don''t ask the origin" so casually?


    She shook her head and generalized, "the trust between people depends on fate. Just like when I asked him to save you in a hurry, isn''t it a potential trust? "


    "How dare you mention it..." Feng Xin''s eyebrows stood upright, with another style.


    Zhuo Xi laughed and avoided the tickling of her hand.


    While talking, they went to Bai''an palace where sun Yao was imprisoned.


    Wordless had already announced loudly, "the empress arrived --" then heard a woman shouting in fear, "old slave, old slave, I''ll open the door now..." the voice was full of excitement and tension. As a result, although people outside heard a clatter to open the lock, the door did not open. It seems that the longer the door is locked, the more difficult it is to open the closing place. The women inside are not strong enough to open it for a while. Seeing this, Wang Yun had to let two bodyguards come forward and help push open the gate of Bai''an palace.


    The gate creaked heavily and harshly. In a line of people holding their breath waiting, it seems more and more lonely.


    Wang Yun stepped forward to open the way and opened the middle door and the main hall in front. The Party saw sun Yao sitting in the center of the hall with his back to them.


    One side speechless and scolded, "bold! The queen is here! Why don''t you come and see me soon? "


    The figure remained motionless.


    Fengxin first found something wrong and said, "she shouldn''t be sun Yao. The man is dead. " She didn''t hear the man breathing.


    Speechless walked forward, broke off her body and exclaimed, "aunt Su Mei!" It turned out to be Su Mei, sun Yao''s close maid in waiting.


    Su Mei was dressed in plain clothes, her eyes were wide open, her tongue stretched out, her neck was full of blood marks scratched by her nails, and her face had faded completely.


    Feng Xin went up to have a look and said, "she was also hit by burning incense. She was heated to death. "


    Zhuo Xi was in a cold sweat. If she hadn''t let people soak chunnuan in ice water in time, and if Fengxin hadn''t come to give her a needle in time, would chunnuan be like her?


    "Search for me!" Zhuo Xi ordered Wang Yun to leave.


    Feng Xin didn''t forget to pour cold water on her. "Since this person can quietly set this game in the palace, what clues can he leave for you to search? Think about it. What new people have come to the palace recently? "


    Zhuo Xi said hesitantly, "recently, the inner house has recruited several female officials. Is it related to them?" But Jiang Xuewei and Bai Yunshu she is most familiar with don''t look like they have martial arts? Moreover, Yuan Dong is only the of the military punishment Department of the inner palace. As a rule, female officials cannot be interrogated


    After a while, Wang Yun came back and said, "I haven''t found anything."


    The result was expected, and the party quietly returned to Ning''an palace.


    The Empress Dowager has received the news and sent mammy Su to see the spring warmth in person. In order to prevent the Empress Dowager from being frightened, Zhuo Xi specially asked the Spring Festival Gala to go back to Ci''an palace with mammy su. After the Empress Dowager knew that there was a false alarm, she asked the Spring Festival Gala to bring some herbs to replenish her body, which will be used again after spring warm wakes up.


    Mrs. Qin also asked people to come and ask about the situation. She didn''t mention it one by one in the Spring Festival Gala.


    After Feng Xin''s reminder, Zhuo Xi asked Jiang Xuewei to set the value in advance, and let chunzao stay with Xiaobai and chunnuan. Chunqing and wordless take care of themselves in dongci. Originally, she wanted Ke min and Hong Quan to go back first. After all, there was Dabao to take care of at home. However, Ke min felt remorse and strongly asked to stay and look after chunnuan. Zhuo Xi had no choice but to let Hong Quan go back first, take care of Dabao, and take care of him. If Dabao was crying and wanted to see his mother, he asked him to bring Dabao into the palace. Hong Quan went back. Naturally, the worried doctor Huang didn''t have to stay. He also went back.


    After arranging this matter, the Spring Festival Gala came up and said, "it''s time for lunch, you see..."


    Zhuo Xi looked at Fengxin, and said with a smile, "it''s natural to set meals immediately so as not to starve our queen. By the way, there are those two boys. Hurry up and have a look. Are you hungry? " So mother Wu hurriedly brought Xiao yu''er, song''s mother and Xiao Yao''er in to greet them. For a time, laughter diluted many of their previous sadness.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, took off the Lantian jade bracelet in her hand and gave it to Xiao Yao''er as a gift. She smiled and said to him, "this is not for you, it''s for your future daughter-in-law. You should keep it." Xiaoyao''er was ignorant, but he saluted upright, "thank you, aunt."


    Mother Wu laughed. Song''s mother smiled and took the meeting gift for the little prince.


    Feng Xin''s gift to Xiao yu''er is a good Lantian jade pendant. Zhuo Xi accepted it impolitely.


    Fengxin also talked to Wu''s mother for a long time, so that they both burst into tears. Fengxin came back and sat down in the dining room with Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi found that before the food was served, two small eunuchs were trying the food in front of them.


    Zhuo Xi believes that she has some research on drugs and poisons, and she can still distinguish ordinary poisons. Therefore, she doesn''t have the habit of letting people try dishes when eating on weekdays.


    Today, two young eunuchs suddenly came to try the dishes seriously. Needless to ask, it must be ordered by Jing Yuan.


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "the burning incense tastes sweet this day, so that person will add this incense to the happy candy. But now, it''s better to be careful. "


    Mother Wu also ordered the imperial kitchen to stew a delicate egg soup and cook a light vegetarian porridge for Xiao Yao''er.


    Zhuo Xi is forcing herself to wean Xiao yu''er recently. Wu''s mother disagreed, and Jing Yuan disagreed. Thinking that breast milk would lose nutrition after six months, she had to find a new nursing mother to feed Xiao yu''er again.


    After a good lunch, Zhuo Xi asked someone to clean up the west side hall to give Fengxin a rest, and arranged two children and nursing mothers. He went back to the sleeping hall for a while.


    At the beginning of the future, Zhuo Xi got up. Mother Wu had taken xiaoyu''er to the back garden again. She went to see the spring warmth again. Chunnuan is still in a coma, but his temperature has obviously dropped, and he feels a little at ease.


    Back in the main hall, I happened to meet Fengxin, who led mother Wu, mother song and two children all the way. She smiled and asked, "Why are you together?"


    Fengxin put down xiaoyao''er in her arms and asked her to play with mother Wu. Then she said, "the palace is not very peaceful now. Xiaoyao''er quarreled to go out to play at noon. I took him out for a walk. I just met mother Wu in the back garden and came back together."


    Zhuo Xi patted her forehead. "I forgot this stubble. Fortunately, you are careful. What did you find? "


    Feng Xin shook his head and said, "the burning incense comes from the feather coat door. Since this person dares to use this incense, he is not afraid that you will find it on the feather coat door. So he must be a bold and careful man, trying to hit it with one blow. Now if you don''t hit, you will naturally disappear and hide your whereabouts. Besides, he saved sun Yao again. If he wants to do anything next, he is not in a hurry. In my opinion, it should be safe in the palace these days. "


    Zhuo Xi pondered and asked people to call all the eight female officials retained after the last exam.


    Feng Xin also helped check the pass, looked at the eight female officials again and again, and finally shook his head and asked them to step down.


    Feng Xin shook his head and said, "these eight women can''t do martial arts." These two books are expected. How could the man behind the scenes leave such an obvious trace?


    Zhuo Xi thought again, "there are two more. One is the Jiang Xuewei you saw in the east room this morning."


    Feng Xin recalled for a moment, shook his head and said, "she can''t fight."


    "There''s only one left, baiyunshu, but she was on duty in the inner palace. She has been in the palace for two years." Zhuo Xi frowned.


    But the man who sent to find her replied, Lord Bai is on duty today and has not come into the palace. Zhuo Xi sent someone to her house and informed her to enter the palace immediately.

 Chapter 253

    A moment later, Zhuo Xi thought about it and recruited someone to ask the Department of military punishment to see if Yuan Dong had found out the origin of the package of sugar?


    The person sent quickly replied that the palace maids and eunuchs of the Bureau said that the package of sugar was sent by the boy sent by the manager of Keda on weekdays. After they took over, they directly transferred it to the running book office. The female official of the running script office said that after receiving it, she handed it directly to chunnuan, who had not changed hands with others.


    So this package of sugar may have been tampered with before entering the palace, but why did you use the Songjiang Mitsubishi silk cloth in the palace? If you were moved passively in the palace, how did you do it? What happened when chunnuan got the happy candy?


    In the afternoon, baiyunshu came into the palace. Zhuo Xi asked her a few words as usual. Bai Yunshu looked blankly and said that he didn''t know the existence of the package of sugar at all. When she heard that chunnuan was hurt, she immediately burst into tears and hurried to see chunnuan. After all, she has been in the palace for two years and has some friendship with chunnuan.


    After Bai Yunshu left, Feng Xin still shook his head and said that he had no martial arts.


    Several people had no clue there. Feng Xin proposed to go to the Empress Dowager to greet her.


    Zhuo Xi accompanied her to the Ci''an palace.


    The Empress Dowager was shocked when she saw the beautiful Fengxin. She couldn''t help feeling. He saw Xiao Yao''er, who was very cute and looked like a tiger head and brain. He was very happy and rewarded a lot of things.


    When they arrived at Youshi, the Zichen Hall said that a banquet had been set up to entertain the tengju mission.


    They returned to Ning''an palace. Zhuo Xi also couldn''t bear to be taken to the Department of military punishment for several nights in the Spring Festival Gala. She only said that there were not enough hands on her side and asked Yuan Dong to bring people back early tomorrow morning. At the same time, someone gave a banquet to entertain Feng Xin. The children have their own mother Wu to take care of them. They have had a few snacks for a long time.


    After they had enough to eat and drink, they taught each other their parenting experience. They had a good chat with each other. For a time, they completely forgot the crisis in the palace. When it got dark, Feng Xin said goodbye. Zhuo Xi knew it was hard to keep them in the palace, so she arranged for someone to set up a temporary post station in the Marquis of Guang''an and let Feng Xin live in.


    At the end of the fifth hour, Jing Yuan staggered into the gate of the bedroom hall.


    When Zhuo Xi caught him, he suddenly felt a smell of wine coming to his face.


    Jing Yuan hugged her and put the tip of his nose in her neck. He murmured, "Xi''er, Xi''er, I''m so happy today!" He belched, "I have finally fulfilled my father''s last wish."


    Although Zhuo Xi had a guess in her heart, she couldn''t help asking, "Yan Rong, are they here to make peace?"


    "No, they come and surrender." Jing Yuan smiled and put his arms around her waist. His hand was about to go to her chest.


    Zhuo Xi patted his wolf claws, pushed him into the bathroom, stood under the shower for him except clothes, and turned on hot water before he came out.


    She was rolling in her heart. She didn''t expect that Yan Rong really gave up the position of the Lord of a country without nostalgia. No wonder, Fengxin said that soon she would not be the queen. Looking at Feng Xin''s look, she had known the result for a long time. She didn''t mention it and didn''t give up at all. Are they willing? Or do they want to get rid of such a cage long ago? Yan Rong has been wandering in the Jianghu since he was a child. Maybe she doesn''t care about power, and she can understand it. But in just over a year, he changed from a humble dark guard to a prince of a country. After becoming king, he became the king of a subjugated country. Wouldn''t he have any ideas in his heart? According to Yan Rong''s affection for Fengxin, leaving the endless government affairs and the claustrophobic deep palace is probably the most in line with Fengxin''s nature? Yin Rong is no longer the Lord of the country, and Feng Xin is no longer the queen. What will happen to them in the future? According to Fengxin''s temperament, they will be proud of the Jianghu, won''t they?


    Thinking deeply in his heart, he saw Jing Yuan wet all over, pushed open the door and came out.


    Because the bathroom is inside the dormitory hall, they never want the maid eunuch to serve in it when they wash. The changed bedclothes and bath towels are already ready in the bathroom for their use. But today Jingyuan drank too much, washed it clean, and walked out directly shaking the red fruit ground.


    Zhuo Xi blackened his face, helped his wet body, reached out to the shelf near the door, took a bath towel and wiped it for him. After wiping, he found that he was also wet. With a gloomy look on her face, she took her bedroom clothes to put them on him, but she didn''t want to get up in the air. She was already in his powerful arms.


    Jing Yuan took her in his arms and stepped to the bed. He put her on the bed. Regardless of her wet clothes, he leaned over and pressed her.


    Zhuo Xi was out of breath by his kiss. She pushed to avoid his kiss and vaguely shouted, "be careful, the baby is awake..."


    But he broke in regardless and attacked the city and land fiercely. His heavy breath was mixed with slightly smoked wine, and he said vaguely, "baby, you are my baby..."


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was so soft that she was confused. Her arms changed direction and put her arms around his neck.


    Wet clothes have been lost to nowhere, and her body gradually softened into a pool of water with a heart


    After that, Jing Yuan turned over and lay on the bed with satisfaction, holding Zhuo Xi in his arms.


    He looked down at the pink skin on her shoulder. He couldn''t help coming forward, took a bite on her round shoulder, smiled and said, "I didn''t know that your skin would turn pink at this time..."


    Zhuo Xijiao said angrily, "I was born with sensitive skin. Once I was exposed to the sun in Hawaii for two days, resulting in UV allergy..."


    "Summer what eh?" Jing Yuan asked with great interest, what is ultraviolet?


    Zhuo Xi stifled and explained, "there is an island in our school. It can be like summer all year round... There is no winter... There is enough sunshine..."


    He exclaimed, "Kyoto has two months of snow in a year and four months in winter. Xi''er, you''ve been afraid of the cold since... Last time. If only I had such a summer island in Daliang, we could live on the island for the first half of the year after autumn... "


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi was silent, and she also noticed that since her inexplicable miscarriage, her body seemed to be more and more afraid of cold, but later she became pregnant, and the fetal fire made her feel better. But after giving birth to Xiao yu''er, the weather in May is hot, and she always feels cold hands and feet... Now in November, she has warmed up the Earth Dragon early, used the brazier, and always had a hand stove nearby


    However, it doesn''t matter. What matters is that Jing Yuan even noticed... It seems that he didn''t feel much last winter... How did he find it


    No, no, it doesn''t matter. The important thing is, what important thing did you want to tell him?


    Zhuo Xi suddenly felt a paste in her head... Where was her calm reason that she was always proud of?


    What were they talking about earlier?


    She tried to recall. Uh, baby? no


    skin sensibility? no


    Hawaii? Not to mention.


    Something seems to flash through her mind. Does it have anything to do with Hawaii? Earlier?


    She bit her lower lip and didn''t know that such a contemplative eyebrow fell into his eyes, like an unspeakable sadness and a silent invitation


    Jing Yuan''s hand held her soft again, and her feet tightly wrapped around her feet. She was eager to pass her body temperature to her. She murmured with her earlobes and whispered, "Xi''er, it''s all my bad..."


    She unconsciously pushed him away, but the soft, boneless push seemed to tickle him, making him even hotter


    No, what did he say when he first came into the bedroom?


    He said that Yin Rong they came to surrender


    Surrender


    Unification of the five countries


    Hawaii


    Hawaii!


    Her brain flashed and she finally remembered what to say to him!


    She hugged the shoulder that had covered herself excitedly and was about to say something, but she felt a slight tremor under her body. He came in again


    "Hello!" She exclaimed and beat his strong shoulder and back, but his body was warm and comfortable around her... The words of blame were never said again


    She forgot that important thing


    The next morning, wordless and Yuan Dong came in dejected. Zhuo Xi knew at a glance that their investigation had made no progress. Also, people in their own palace are not allowed to torture him or ask him questions. Those who are brought to the Department of military punishment are just those irrelevant people in the outside world. How can such investigation be efficient?


    She remembered that when Jing Yuan got up early in the morning, she asked him vaguely, "Sun Yao was rescued. What about the poisoned murderer?"


    He patted her on the head and said to her in a low voice, "if there is me in this matter, leave it alone and don''t go out of the palace recently. Huh? "


    Thinking of this, she was silent and said to Wuyan and Yuandong, "you who are on duty today to sweep the outer court, take turns to inquire about it. It''s not too late to ask about tomorrow in the inner hall. "


    Silent heart a loose.


    Yuan Dong is as bitter as yellow lotus. The empress is completely perfunctory. How can she check it and explain it to the emperor? In particular, the two people completely look like glue. How should he stand in line? He glanced at the speechless man standing on one side, and suddenly a surge of happiness filled his heart. Fortunately, when I came to answer my orders early in the morning, I brought back some unimportant palace maids and eunuchs outside. I didn''t torture them last night... Otherwise, I don''t know how to explain to the queen now?


    However, I told the queen what to do with the emperor? One is the queen and the other is the emperor. Whether he wants to stand in line or not... He thought bitterly. He suddenly admired the eunuchs in Ning''an palace. They didn''t have to choose. They just served the queen wholeheartedly


    Speechless but a natural appearance, smiled to the emperor and empress, "yes, I''ll arrange it now."


    After that, he bowed to the door and stepped back. He didn''t forget to turn his face and stare at Yuan Dong.


    Yuan Dong, who was wandering outside the sky, woke up with a start in his fierce eyes. Cold sweat came from the tip of his nose. He hurried to bless the empress and left without a word.

 Chapter 254

    At the door, Yuan Dong bowed to the emperor with a bitter face, "good brother, how can I explain this job to the emperor now? Please give your brother a hand... "


    Speechless glanced at Yuan Dong, "I thought you were very clever. I know that you have to send all the palace maids and eunuchs who are in charge of the matter. Why, it''s only a while, and I''m confused? "


    "But this..." murdering the empress is a great crime of copying the family and destroying the family. How can the emperor let it go? But it happened in Ning''an palace. The empress refused to cooperate. How can we check it? The whole palace knew that the queen was the emperor''s top man. In such a big event, the emperor only lightly arranged himself to check Ning''an palace. The empress also looks like an old God is completely indifferent. Do you want to continue to check?


    There have always been many ways to investigate cases. It''s a kind of careful interrogation. It''s a kind of random investigation and fooling all sentient beings. If you have to have a result, it''s another kind of clever arrangement of a scapegoat. But what kind is it this time? It''s a big deal, but the two masters at the top are not the same thing. Is the investigator really serious or not? If you want to check it, those who obviously offend Ning''an palace have offended the empress indirectly or directly. He also wanted to take turns to ask as the queen said, but if the emperor was serious, there would be a thousand and ten thousand reasons to ask for his own head


    He looked speechless in embarrassment.


    Speechless just raised his eyebrows, and there was a little goose bumps in his heart. This Yuandong was at least ten years older than himself... He stayed in the military punishment department for nearly ten years... He was silent for a moment, looked at Xia Yi on duty outside the palace, and said, "there are twelve people taking turns this morning. I''ll arrange it now. Father-in-law yuan, do you want to find a secluded place in Ning''an palace for questioning, or do you want to take it back to the Wu Xing division for detailed inquiry? " Now the peace and tranquility in the palace is unprecedented in the Three Dynasties since King Wu built the palace. Naturally, he does not want to cause a gap between the first two masters because of this small event.


    Yuan Dong''s heart was cold and shivered. He got up at the bottom of his heart, bowed to wordless and said, "naturally, it''s to find a secluded wing nearby, which still needs to trouble wordless father-in-law..."


    He said, "the slave has two people left in the military punishment department. They are all waiting for the pen and ink. When the slave goes to call them, they will come and make a detailed investigation together..."


    Silent smiled and nodded, "please help yourself, father-in-law Yuandong..."


    Yuan Dong bowed again, then walked towards the Wu Xing division, and exhaled a long breath from the bottom of his heart. He didn''t even dare to use such words as "interrogation, interrogation". He could only use "detailed investigation"... When he was interrogated in Ning''an palace, under the eyes of the empress, his every move could be noticed by the empress, so she wouldn''t be misunderstood? If the emperor asks, he did his best in Ning''an palace, and the two people below and the people in Ning''an palace testify, he is also embarrassed to blame himself for not doing his duty?


    As a result, the interrogation venue and interrogation methods of the military criminal division changed unprecedentedly. Not only did they move the role of the dark and humid prison cell that had soaked the bloody taste for many years to Ning''an palace, but also the old maid and old eunuch of the interrogation showed a gentle face they had never seen before, I''m afraid that if the ending of a question is not raised beautifully and vividly, the person being asked will injure himself or even commit suicide


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care about these little things. She listened with great interest to Feng Xin, who met with her after visiting chunnuan again in the palace, talk about some things she met when she first came to tengju at that time. Zhuo Xi was stunned when she heard that she rudely used all kinds of bad things brought into the palace by her to eight new beauties in turn, resulting in their death and becoming a monk... Thinking about herself, although she was already a queen, she had never acted as she wanted... She was actually very curious about tengju''s surrender, Why not choose to leave room for greater obedience and maintain China''s posture?


    Unexpectedly, Feng Xin stared and said angrily, "I have lived in the palace like a bird cage for so long. Why not take this opportunity to seek freedom?" As he spoke, he looked at her sympathetically and said, "when I came here this time, I saw the boundless mountains and vast scenery along the way. What fun would it be if my life lived in this deep palace for a long time?"


    Zhuo Xi was silent, suddenly raised his face and asked, "ah Xin, what''s your goal in life?"


    Feng Xin was stunned, "life goal?" She thought, "if you have any goal, I''ve been looking for drugs to detoxify senior brother for the first half of my life. Is this a goal in life? As for the second half of my life... "She hesitated," I''ve been wandering with my master since I was a child. Maybe I have a warm family. It''s my long dream to accompany brother Rong and Xiao Yao''er to grow up safely... "


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes lit up, "I mean your career dream! A beautiful family is necessary, but for a person, whether men or women, having a career goal is the most important! For example, in addition to taking good care of the family, use your expertise to integrate the national prescriptions for the treatment of cold, wind heat, summer wind and other cold symptoms, select the best, make finished drugs, and write the medication standards... "She took out a stack of dozens of prescriptions declared to Ziran by major medical centers in Kyoto some time ago and explained them in front of Fengxin. By the way, she also talked about several main lines of health yamen system such as national medical network, national hospital system, medical college and Nursing College


    It was said for two hours, which made her dry mouth and upset.


    Due to yesterday''s spring warming poisoning incident, the affairs of the whole Ning''an palace fell into a temporary rest state, so that no one interfered in these two hours


    Feng Xin listened without expression. While listening, he drank all the tea in his hand. It was not enough. He picked up the cup opposite Zhuo Xi, poured all the tea into his own cup and drank it again. She thought she had shown obvious impatience. However, as soon as Zhuo Xi opened the box, she didn''t stop.


    Until she stopped, Feng Xin Shi ran got up, dusted the dust that didn''t exist on her body, said "Xiao Yao''s going to take a nap" and raised her feet to go.


    Zhuo Xi shouted, "wait a minute!"


    She jumped up, grabbed the prescriptions written on a large stack of sheepskin rolls on the table and stuffed them into Feng Xin''s arms, "when Xiao Yao was asleep and King Yan Rong was obsessed with studying the art of war, take time to have a look at them!"


    When Feng Xin heard the speech, she took a smoke from the corner of her mouth. Finally, she didn''t say anything. Seeing a round fan put on her case, she picked it up and shook it and turned out of Ning''an palace.


    Looking at the once hyacinth childe, shaking a round fan


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help laughing.


    She felt as if she had completed a major task. She collapsed in the wide armchair and was sweating all over. Although it took the shortest time and the fastest speed to describe her grand plan to Fengxin, and she was half dead tired, wouldn''t it be much easier to turn her into her own plan? At least the drug department can throw it directly to her


    Why is the tea gone when you pick up the teacup in front of you?!


    She called weakly, "someone..."


    After a long time no one answered, she remembered that for most of the day, several tea waiters in the Spring Festival Gala never came in, and the peach glue between brunch and lunch?


    She shouted as hard as she could, "come on!"


    There was still no movement. Just as she struggled to get up and go out to post a notice of missing people, the door of the main hall opened with a squeak.


    Zhuo Xi stared behind the screen with a smile. Sure enough, a figure turned out behind the screen wall. Unfortunately, there was no food or tea to supplement energy in his hand, but a familiar notebook and a charcoal pen


    The visitor is Jiang Xuewei.


    Seeing the obvious disappointment on the empress''s face, she was stunned. After saluting and paying homage, she asked with concern, "what''s wrong with the empress?"


    Zhuo Xi looked depressed, "my palace is thirsty and hungry. Those waiters outside have no eyes today. I don''t know where they are! Is it that Miyagi indulges them too much? "


    Jiang Xuewei said with a smile, "if my mother is tolerant to others on weekdays, they will be slack. But when the officer came, I heard that someone from the military punishment department was asking questions in the small wing behind? Have they all been taken over because of this? "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized, "these little bunnies of the Wu Xing division have taken Ning''an palace of the palace as an interrogation room!"


    Jiang Xuewei respectfully put the pen and "book" in her hand in the farthest corner of the desk from Zhuo Xi, quietly covered an insignificant small object on it, frowned and asked with a smile, "I''m going to be on duty in Japan today, but I got a day off because of yesterday''s incident. Just now I have nothing to do, so I come in and see what my mother has to say. What do you want to drink or eat? I''m not good at making tea, but if there is ready-made food and drink in the imperial kitchen, I can send a bowl for my mother. "


    Zhuo Xi tilted her head and thought, "fortunately, the little eunuch of the military punishment department can''t ask your female officer. Well, my palace is thirsty. Go and make a pot of chrysanthemum tea for my palace. " Peach glue bird''s nest and so on. Let''s wait until they come back from the Spring Festival Gala.


    Jiang Xuewei saluted and withdrew.


    After a while, she brought in a cup of tea and put it in front of Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi picked up the cup, took a sip and praised, "your workmanship is good. Lord Jiang is too modest on weekdays."


    Jiang Xuewei''s face was slightly blushed. "I''m flattered. Speaking of it, this chrysanthemum tea was only met when he entered the palace, so he learned from his sister in the Spring Festival Gala... "


    "Well, you''ve only been in the palace for more than a month?"


    Jiang Xuewei nodded, "yes, I entered the palace in early October."


    "I remember that your mother brought you here that day. Where does she live now? "


    "The Empress Dowager loved her and gave her a small house not far from the palace. When I take a rest, I will go back and reunite with her. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "my mother seems to like Mrs. Jiang very much. If your mother is free, she might as well often go to the palace to accompany her mother. "


    Jiang Xuewei respectfully saluted, "madam, how''s sister chunnuan? Will you go and see her? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "of course. You may as well go and have a look. If it gets better, report it to the palace immediately. "


    Jiang Xuewei nodded, picked up the pen and book she had just put on the corner of the desk, turned and stepped back.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her figure and sighed.


    Soon, Zhuo Xi felt a dull pain in her chest, and a mouthful of fishy sweet immediately sprayed bright red blood.


    A figure jumped out from behind the curtain, hurriedly held her, took another pill from his arms and stuffed it into her mouth.


    The man cried and said, "madam, you know she has a problem, how can you still..."


    Zhuo Xi swallowed the pill vigorously with blood in her mouth and said with a smile, "don''t you have an antidote? Naturally, the palace has nothing to fear... "

 Chapter 255

    She took the man''s hand and looked at her clearly. "If they want revenge, let them come. I just want to know, Xianglan, to provide them with the four strange poisons in the world, are you forced or voluntary? "


    Xianglan has burst into tears.


    A figure came over, took her in his arms, wiped the blood from her mouth with one hand, and asked anxiously, "Xi''er, how are you?"


    Xianglan bowed to the ground.


    Zhuo Xi held Jing Yuan''s hand. "Emperor, did you know Xianglan was here?"


    Jing Yuan put her palm against her back. She immediately felt a warm current slowly flowing into her limbs and bones through the contact. The pain in the stomach immediately relieved a lot due to poisoning.


    For a moment, Jing Yuan took back her palm and then had time to answer her, "I know Xianglan is here and she has an antidote in her hand. Just in case, it makes her stay here. Didn''t I ask Feng Xin to warn you? Why did you drink that tea? "


    Zhuo Xi thought for a long time before she realized that the way Feng Xin warned herself was to drink all the tea and not leave a drop to her? Do you want to be so circuitous? She didn''t understand at all! She said with a bitter smile, "I haven''t seen ah Xin for too long. I forgot her style for a moment..."


    Jing Yuan hit her on the forehead with a burst of millet. "Fengxin is called the hyacinth childe in the Jianghu. Wherever he goes, as long as he leaves the purple sign of hyacinth, he is telling people that he has tampered with the things here, especially the food. Where you see this sign, no one dares to eat and no one dares to touch. Why did you forget? "


    "Ah..." she exclaimed, completely missing the point. "I had dinner with her yesterday!" According to this logic, isn''t she dead without a whole body?


    He gave her another shudder. "Did she leave purple hyacinths yesterday?"


    "Oh, hyacinth? Where is it? " She looked around on the desk. In the cup? No, Feng Xin sat in the chair, No. Even the ground she stepped on was not in front of the gate behind the screen wall of Ning''an palace


    She looked blankly at Jing Yuan in front of her


    Jing Yuan was also thoughtful.


    Xianglan knelt down and kowtowed, "the emperor, the queen, the maidservant, damn it. Ask the emperor and empress to be punished! "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "come on, what''s going on?"


    Xianglan replied with tears, "the slave was originally responsible for the operation of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan semicolon in Dingzhou. As the slave and maid reported to you earlier, the semicolon has opened and operated well. Yuzhou girls began to receive new clothes one after another. However, there were not many people in the dark guard department in the feather clothes gate. Now they are scattered to various states and counties to find the blood of Yu nationality. Some heard that Zisang and datan were taken back to Daliang, and also went everywhere to find them. In this way, the dark guard is even more understaffed. The maidservant used a wordless token to mobilize the staff of the dark Wei Department near Dingzhou and Kyoto, so as to successively select qualified girls from new girls and cultivate them into new dark Wei. So a woman who claimed to be an orchid master came to the door. She took out the solid word token and claimed to be aunt Mingying''s sister, the former Princess of minglan. I was very happy. I heard that two or three King uncles were exiled since I was a child. Aunt minglan was one of them. The maidservant didn''t doubt him and told aunt Mingying everything that had happened here. Unexpectedly, a few days later, the maidservant was abducted by her and the wordless token was robbed by her. Since then, she has been tossing around for several times. Although she doesn''t know what she wants to do, she vaguely feels that she should summon dark Wei with a wordless token. Until one time when she came to Ruihe City, the maid heard that Lord Wu was handling government affairs in Ruihe City, so she tried to steal the wordless token and threw it in the busy market. On the one hand, she couldn''t give orders with a token. On the other hand, she thought that maybe she could leave some clues to Lord Wu. Later, aunt minglan found that the wordless token was lost, so she took a detour to Xuchang and returned to Kyoto. I was lucky to be saved by the Emperor... Then I had a chance to enter the palace... "


    Zhuo Xi glanced at Jing Yuan and asked in surprise, "how did you find out that she was hijacked?"


    Jing Yuan raised his eyes and looked at her contemptuously. "On the day they entered the city, someone reported something unusual to me... Besides, on those days, someone asked to buy the clothes of Wu Meiniang auctioned by you the year before last... Can I not care about such strange things?"


    Wu Meiniang is the image she concocted. When he learned about it, he must know that it has something to do with himself, right? That''s why he fell in love... And found Xianglan''s whereabouts


    But Zhuo Xi thought it was inexplicable, "what does she want to dress up as Wu Meiniang?"


    "Naturally, I want to make a good first impression..."


    "Yes?" She still looks at a loss. She just feels weird, okay?


    She still has a question, "so you provide burning incense and blood incense on this day?"


    Xianglan kowtowed again, "no! no How could the maidservants provide the poison unique to the feather clothes sect when they knew that they were going to be harmful to the empress? This poison has always been a rare medicine in the feather clothes gate. The people who keep it are loyal to the Yu family and the royal family. They can''t use it easily. Moreover, the four strange poisons and their antidotes are kept by different people. The maid guessed that aunt minglan visited all the dark guards with a wordless token in order to gather these four strange poisons. Unexpectedly, the wordless token was lost later, so he hurried back to Kyoto for fear of revealing his deeds. The master of the gate allowed the maidservant to carry heaven blood incense because she was in charge of the dark Wei Department in Kyoto. But there is no antidote for slaves and maidservants. After the emperor rescued the maidservant, he knew the man''s plan. Afraid of doing harm to the empress, he asked the maidservant to find some medicine. The maidservant is stupid and can only contact the person in charge of tianxuexiang antidote in Shangjing capital as soon as possible. But I couldn''t find the antidote that day... "


    Zhuo Xi just relaxed her mind and raised it again, "that spring is warm for her..."


    Xianglan lowered his head in shame.


    Fortunately, Jiang Xuewei gave her a colorless and tasteless Tianxue fragrance... It seems that Tianjiao fragrance has a slight sweet taste and is easy to be detected in chrysanthemum tea


    Tianxuexiang and tianjiaoxiang are the four Qi poisons that work very fast. It seems that they are really determined to kill themselves! She said angrily, "is minglan Jiang huailan?! Where is she? And Jiang Xuewei! Since you know they did it, what are you waiting for? "


    Jing Yuan didn''t speak.


    At the next moment, a shadow and another turned from the screen wall.


    It was Hua Yan. It was Jiang Xuewei who was holding it.


    Jiang Xuewei was thrown on the ground. She had no martial arts. At the moment, she looked as pale as snow.


    Hua Yan gave the two people a gift. Some looked strange and said, "my subordinates found her at the gate of Chaowu gate. When they found her, she was already like this."


    Chaowu gate, it seems that she was going to leave the palace. How could she be unable to lie down on the ground?


    Jiang Xuewei said weakly, "you, you are, when did you poison me?"


    Poison?


    Zhuo Xi stepped forward to buckle her pulse. Sure enough, she saw an unknown poison in her body.


    She immediately remembered Feng Xin... Is it Feng Xin''s hand?


    She looked at Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan patted her on the shoulder and made her comfortable on the back of the chair. He also sat down in the other chair above and said slowly, "what''s urgent? The truth will be revealed immediately."


    He kept checking her pulse and knew that the antidote had worked and that she was safe. With a sigh of relief, he pulled her up and said, "go. Let''s go to Ci''an palace. "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t react for a moment. After standing up, he suddenly realized something and looked at him with a surprised look. Seeing his calm face, he knew that the Empress Dowager should be safe, so he was relieved.


    She felt an inexplicable touch in her heart. He knew that Ning''an palace and Ci''an palace would face the same danger, and Jiang huailan might still be a martial arts expert with unique skills, but he rushed to Ning''an palace for the first time... Although she knew that both sides of him must be prepared


    The two arrived at Ci''an Palace by shoulder. The Empress Dowager was playing mahjong.


    Opposite the Empress Dowager is Fengxin. The last family is Jiang huailan and the next family is a lady who looks very kind.


    The empress of the eyebrows came in and smiled with her? Instead of rubbing dinner today, it''s lunch? "


    The other three got up and saluted them.


    Zhuo Xi remembered that the lady who looked kind was Mrs. Chang''an, isn''t that the mother-in-law of the third sister Wu Jiao? Why did she come to the palace to greet the Empress Dowager?


    When Jiang huailan saw zhuoxi standing there safely, her face turned white.


    When several people saw the emperor and empress came, they naturally couldn''t play the card game.


    After seeing the ceremony, mother Su quickly withdrew to make tea.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised at the calm, and didn''t a Xin say he wanted to go back to see Xiao Yao''er after saying goodbye to her? Why was Jing Yuan sent to Ci''an palace? But she was still calm and smiled. She helped the Empress Dowager sit on the wide sofa, rubbed her shoulders and said angrily, "empress mother, how did you start to touch mahjong this morning? Beware of sore neck and shoulder! "


    "Is it the God who reported to you? AI Jia has only played twice! Let you catch an appearance! "


    Jing Yuan sat down on the sofa next to him and said, "empress mother, what''s it to catch you gambling with them?! It''s really wonderful to catch an assassin and show you a good play later! "


    The Empress Dowager heard the voice over and looked a little solemn, "assassin?"


    The body of Jiang huailan who followed him froze, and one hand quietly clenched into a fist.


    "Whether it''s an assassin or an old friend depends on her choice..." Jing Yuan replied lazily.


    The Empress Dowager''s eyes floated to Jiang huailan and pondered, "old friend...?"


    It''s both an assassin and an old friend... No matter how stupid people hear the meaning of this remark.


    Jiang huailan knew she was exposed, but she didn''t know what happened to her daughter. She had no time to think about it. She broke her fingernails in her palm and popped the powder hidden in her fingernails.

 Chapter 256

    This day, the blood fragrance is colorless and tasteless. If you inhale a little in the air, you can be poisoned immediately. It is an assassination artifact. Moreover, if there is no antidote in a column of incense, the poisoned person will spit blood and die. Even if he gets the antidote at the last minute, although it can relieve its toxicity, the human body will also hurt his body greatly due to a large amount of spitting blood. Its toxicity ranks first among the four Qi poisons.


    The last blow between her and Jiang Xuewei today is the colorless and tasteless heavenly blood fragrance.


    She has been afraid to believe her name in the Jianghu for a long time. Now that it has been exposed, I can''t care so much for a while.


    She had been watching her closely. At the moment she moved, a bully flew in front of her. A round fan in her hand waved vigorously at Jiang huailan, and a gust of fragrance rushed straight at Jiang everyone.


    Chiang Kai Shek was stunned and his head shifted involuntarily. The heavenly blood powder she had just sprinkled was also counterattacked a little back, but the powder that was expected to sprinkle near the Empress Dowager and Zhuo Xi had no chance to move forward at the moment.


    In this stupidity, Feng Xin''s palm wind has arrived in front of him. Jiang huailan missed it, and their palm wind staggered.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly protected the Empress Dowager and took a few steps back.


    Mrs. Ann Arbor, who had been silent nearby, also helped the Empress Dowager.


    Jing Yuan was an old God. He sat there motionless and saw that Feng Xin and Jiang huailan were inseparable.


    So when Mrs. chang''an''bo seemed to have a big foot, raised her right hand, and the live gold bracelet on her wrist fell to the ground, Jing Yuan finally figured out what was wrong.


    Just now, Mrs. Chang''an was standing behind Jiang huailan. If both Jiang huailan and Feng Xin were prepared to take the understanding medicine in advance and did not respond to the inhaled heavenly blood fragrance, it seems to be a complete coincidence. Why is Mrs. Chang''an who appeared in Ci''an palace safe?


    He flew up and jumped forward.


    But it''s too late.


    The dust like fine powder in the gold bracelet spilled out and floated in front of the Empress Dowager and Zhuo Xi.


    The Empress Dowager was more frightened by the sudden splash of Mrs. chang''anbo and opened her mouth.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t react for a moment. She stood on both sides of the Empress Dowager with Mrs. Chang''an Bo. From her angle, she could only see Chang''an Bo move, and then he was short.


    However, Jing Yuan''s body immediately rushed to her. One foot was on the hand that Mrs. chang''anbo was about to pick up the gold bracelet, and the other foot kicked Mrs. chang''anbo''s chest like lightning.


    Mrs. chang''an''bo screamed and was kicked to the ground by him.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly pulled the Empress Dowager back.


    But immediately saw the Empress Dowager''s mouth overflowing with blood, which was already a symptom of being hit by tianxuexiang.


    Feng Xin was surprised to see this change. He immediately stopped his hand and flew to the empress dowager, gave her a pulse, and then nodded to Jing Yuan.


    "Hahaha..." Jiang huailan smiled and went to help Mrs. Chang''an on the ground.


    Jing Yuan didn''t say much, so he came forward to pick up the Empress Dowager and walked quickly to the bedroom hall behind him.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly shouted "Mama Su!"


    Mother Su rushed in.


    Zhuo Xi said sternly, "don''t come in! Go to Ning''an palace and find Xianglan to get the antidote of heavenly blood fragrance! "


    Seeing the chaos in the hall, mother Su stopped talking and ran away at once.


    Jiang huailan said angrily, "Xianglan, that little bitch! Why haven''t you died yet? "


    Zhuo Xi was angry. "You villain didn''t die. How could Xianglan die?" She was still puzzled by her anger and shouted at the door, "what a flower! Bring it up! "


    He saw Hua Yan carrying the paralyzed Jiang Xuewei in and throwing it on the ground.


    A figure swooped on Jiang Xuewei, "Xuewei! How are you? "


    Jiang Xuewei weakly shouted, "Mom... I... I don''t know what''s wrong..."


    Jiang huailan raised her eyes and looked up at the first few people, "what have you done to Xuewei?!"


    A voice floated in, "if you ask them, you might as well ask me..."


    The hyacinth took a small burden in his hand and threw it on the ground. "What you are going to do, I will do to her!"


    Jiang huailan reached out and trembled on Jiang Xuewei''s pulse, and stroked the skin on Jiang Xuewei''s hand. The palm was bloody red... Her face changed greatly and stared at Feng Xin, "you, you used the fragrance of heaven to her?"


    Zhuo Xi remembered that the fragrance of this day would make people slowly exude blood from every pore of her body, and it would last for a year... She would die of exhaustion... No wonder she would be weak. Ordinary people''s body began to bleed out slowly, and naturally it would be weak... However, how did Fengxin poison her? When Jiang Xuewei came to Ning''an palace, she should have arrived at Ci''an palace, right?


    The hyacinth dusted his clothes again and said, "I''m kind compared with you attacking the Empress Dowager and the empress at the same time!"


    Jiang huailan was full of hate and rushed to Jingyuan''s feet, "emperor! It''s the old woman''s fault! The old woman is willing to hand over the antidote of tianxuexiang and beg the emperor to spare Xuewei! "


    Zhuo Xi leaned over and looked at her, "exchange antidotes? But how dare we use the antidote you gave us? "


    "Xuewei is my daughter. How can I take my daughter''s life as a trifle?"


    "Daughter? How can a man who can poison his husband really love his daughter? " Feng Xin said sarcastically.


    No one noticed. Mrs. Chang Anbo, whose face was as gray as death, trembled on the ground.


    Zhuo Xi was very cooperative and turned around Jiang Xuewei on the ground twice. "Tut Tut, so your mother is the murderer who killed your father. Do you want to avenge your father or revenge?"


    Jiang Xuewei looked suddenly. For a moment, she didn''t recover from such thunderbolt news. Her already weak body shook and vomited a mouthful of blood. Her skin was floating with a light orange color, which was the expression of countless capillaries slowly seeping blood. Where the cuff is thinner, it has been soaked with blood


    Jiang huailan stared at Feng Xin, took out a small medicine bottle from her arms and stretched it out, "antidote, exchange."


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "just said, we have an antidote in hand, but why do we want to change it with you?"


    Jiang huailan said, "tianxuexiang makes people vomit blood all the time. The Empress Dowager was already weak. If she vomited more, her body would be damaged more. "


    Zhuo Xi immediately said, "change! Let''s change! "


    Feng Xin first took the antidote from Jiang huailan, opened the lid and smelled it. After confirming that it was indeed the antidote of tianxuexiang, he threw the bottle to Zhuo Xi, and then slowly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Jiang huailan.


    Jiang huailan hurriedly took Jiang Xuewei down.


    As soon as Zhuo Xi received the antidote, she ran to the bedroom hall immediately. Jing Yuan had already taken back the hand that put Qi on the Empress Dowager''s back and sealed several acupoints around her, making her less painful and vomit less blood. Rao is so, the Empress Dowager''s chest is still wet and red.


    Zhuo Xi quickly poured out the antidote, stuffed one into the Empress Dowager''s mouth and said, "empress mother, this medicine can''t be taken with water, so you''ll have some pain and swallow it hard."


    The Empress Dowager nodded her head and swallowed it hard. Only then did she feel that the tumbling blood in her chest subsided slowly.


    Jing Yuan looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he stretched out his hand to unlock the Empress Dowager''s acupoints and said softly, "empress mother, please take a rest."


    The Empress Dowager refused and said coldly, "no, the wonderful play you said has just begun. How can AI family be absent?!" Although the voice shows the weakness after recovering from a serious illness, it also shows a trace of firm determination.


    Zhuo Xi swallowed her original words of comfort. She knew that the Empress Dowager was not angry. She was not kind to Jiang, but she was poisoned by this and asked for a clear truth.


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and nodded, "OK, let''s go to the trial together."


    When they came to the main hall, they saw that Fengxin and Jiang huailan were fighting together again.


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead and shouted, "stop! Why are you fighting again? "


    Feng Xin stopped the attack and stood aside with a sneer, "I only said I would exchange antidotes with you, but I didn''t say I would exchange antidotes of tianqingxiang with you. You see, the boneless dissipation on her body has not been solved? "


    Zhuo Xi scolded in her heart. This Fengxin is really a bad master. She poisoned Jiang Xuewei at one time?


    Feng Xin saw the incomprehension in their eyes, felt her nose with some guilt, and then said to Zhuo Xi righteously: "I haven''t avenged Xiaobai yet?"


    Xiaobai''s revenge will not be avenged by itself?


    Jiang huailan looked at her daughter lying on the ground in pain. She bit her silver teeth and said angrily, "give me tianqingxiang antidote. Take my life!"


    Feng Xin shrugged. "Tianqingxiang is the end of the four strange poisons in the world. It can''t kill people invisibly or take effect quickly. Therefore, there are few poisons and antidotes. You ask yourself, how long have you traveled around the world looking for the antidote of tianqingxiang? You can''t find this antidote with a wordless token. How can I have tianqingxiang antidote in my hand? Besides, who in the feather clothes gate knows the antidote of tianqingxiang, don''t you know? "


    A glimmer of hope rose in Jiang huailan''s eyes, "yes, Xianglan, Xianglan, she''s not dead yet. Where is she? "


    "I thought you would be disappointed if I didn''t die!" A voice came from outside the door and saw a thin figure holding another man with dishevelled hair but dressed in maid''s clothes.


    The natural speaker is Xianglan.


    And the one wearing the maid''s dress turned out to be sun Yao.


    The Empress Dowager was also surprised.


    For the woman who killed her own son, her heart was not without hatred. At the beginning, Jing tuihong claimed to have died of illness. If he insisted on letting sun Yao pay the price of his life, it would be inevitable that no one would investigate the truth here. The dead have passed away. If the truth is revealed to the world, Yu Jing''s reputation is not very good. What''s more, Jing Tai has done too many wrong things after all, and she can''t attribute all the blame to this woman. After all, sun Yao is Xiao Qi''s biological mother. Now she is imprisoned in Bai''an palace and has become a cold palace and a waste of imperial concubines. She doesn''t want her grandchildren to blame her in the future


    Who thought she would appear here?


    Zhuo Xi said with a sneer, "Jiang everyone had a good means to save sun Yao and hid her under the eyes of the Empress Dowager. No wonder the emperor searched the whole Kyoto outside and didn''t find her. But you may not know that sun Yao was imprisoned in Bai''an palace. Why did you bother so much to save her? If she wants to go, she can go out of Bai''an Palace at any time. So when you rescued her, did you ask her if she was willing to be saved? "

 Chapter 257

    Jiang huailan shook her body and looked at Sun Yao, but ignored Zhuo Xi''s words, jumped at Xianglan and asked, "Xianglan, you''re really not dead! That''s great! Do you know where tianqingxiang''s antidote is? "


    Xianglan sneered, "as soon as you enter the capital city, you can''t wait to sink me into the river. You''re the one who wants me to die?! But now he''s pretending to show it to who? "


    Jiang huailan hurriedly explained, "no, no, it was just an accident. It was the boat''s mother''s instability that landed you in the water. Afterwards, I asked the boat mother to find some men to catch you, but I failed. "


    Xianglan still sneered, "really? Who stopped me from moving when I fell into the water? Who pretended to let someone come down to pick me up after the ship had docked for three hours? Do you want to die and see a corpse? "


    Zhuo Xi took a cold breath.


    Jiang huailan couldn''t hold it anymore. "Xianglan, you bitch! If it weren''t for your prevarication, I couldn''t get together these four strange poisons and their antidotes. If it wasn''t for you to steal a wordless token and inform them; If you hadn''t obstructed my plan, wouldn''t I be so eager to take risks? " Now he folded his daughter in. Originally, she didn''t want her daughter to take risks, but she couldn''t stand her daughter''s appeal in every way. She said that today they acted separately. Whether they succeed or not, they must find a way to retreat. Who knows, my daughter has the way of Fengxin. She knew that the queen was a master of medicine and that the little white snake around her was her poison recognition artifact, so she cut off the seven inches of the snow beetle early in the morning. However, she did not calculate that the famous poison expert in the Jianghu accidentally entered the palace and saved chunnuan and Xuehu by mistake. I knew, I knew, she didn''t hit yesterday, so she should stop in time... Xuewei was poisoned, and the gain is not worth the loss


    She looked at Sun Yao because of sun Yao. One of her main goals today is to take sun Yao out of the palace... So she rushed to sun Yao again, "sister Mingying, whether you like it or not, I always have a good intention to save you. We entered the palace today mainly to take you out of the fire pit! Xuewei is your niece! You can''t watch Xuewei die from tianqingxiang. You know where tianqingxiang''s antidote is, don''t you? Mingying, tell me, where is the antidote? "


    Sun Yao looked lax. After a while, she gathered her expression and smiled bitterly, "minglan, I can''t watch Xuewei die of poisoning, and I can''t accept that you should secretly harm our Yu descendants. There are only 13 people with Yu surname in these five countries! Xianglan, Xianglan, she is the daughter of Ming and her brother! It may be the only blood of Ming and the prince! Why should I be imprisoned in the cold palace? I promised Ming and his brother that one day, I must see the Yu people reunite... I can safely see Ming and his brother underground. What''s more, I''m no longer the leader of the feather clothes sect. I really don''t know where the antidote is... "


    Jiang huailan laughed and said, "Ming and the prince? You have given up the restoration of the country and revenge. What do you think Ming and the crown prince do?! Don''t say Xianglan is a daughter or a man. Why have I ever paid attention to it? Since we chose a different path, what''s the use of saying this now? "


    Sun Yao looked at the three people sitting above and Jiang Xuewei, who was unable to lie on the ground, and shed tears in her eyes, "it''s really useless to say more. On that day, I wanted to support Xiaoqi''s superior to steal the matter of not cooling the world and told his majesty, which made him angry and die. These days, I''ve been thinking, is there any reason for the Yu royal family to sit in the world? If there had been no mutiny among the five countries, wouldn''t there be other domestic and foreign troubles? You and I are just a woman. Their men don''t bear the responsibility. Why should we women bear it? What if I succeed, what if you succeed? Who benefits? Is it our brothers and nephews scattered at the ends of the earth? After more than 30 years, are these brothers and nephews who have been hiding since childhood and have not received orthodox education still able to shoulder the world? If I successfully helped Xiao Qi to the top that day, how could Daliang have the situation of the unification of the five countries? Sometimes I think, I also have selfishness. If I succeed that day, do I really want my son to give up the world to Yu''s man? Why do they enjoy the world? If Xiao Qi gives up the throne, can he still live? And if you don''t plan to hand over the world to Yu''s man and let Xiao Qi inherit the throne, what''s the significance of the so-called restoration of the country? "


    Jiang huailan said angrily, "so, do you trade your betrayal for the survival of the Yu clan?"


    Sun Yao smiled, "isn''t it good to exchange a wordless token for the eternal peace of the Yu clan? Why should the Yu family, like you and me, become a tool for marrying princes and nobles from generation to generation, and suffer from killing their husbands and children from generation to generation? "


    Jiang huailan shook her body.


    The empress dowager, who silently watched them quarrel, took a breath of air-conditioning.


    Zhuo Xi was completely confused. Jing Yuan simply explained in her ear, "Jiang huailan''s husband was the big Sima of datan. Unfortunately, he and his only son died ten years ago."


    Jiang Xuewei struggled to get up, her eyes red with snow, "Mom, what did she say? Is it not just dad, but also big brother... "


    Jiang huailan shouted at her, "no! no How is that possible? " She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and said to sun Yao, "it''s useless to say more. I really committed a capital crime today. I don''t ask for anything else, just ask you to save Xuewei. She doesn''t know anything... "


    Sun Yao also calmed down her excitement, "but sister LAN, I really don''t know where the antidote is. When I handed over the wordless token to Xianglan that day, I gave her the location and contact information of the drug collection... "


    Everyone looked at Xianglan.


    Xianglan shook his head, "tianqingxiang is very rare in the world because the raw materials for making incense are difficult to find, and the effect is not very effective, and it is easy to be noticed. As far as I know, there is no antidote... "


    "No!" Jiang huailan screamed, "no, it''s impossible, I still have a year..." she rushed back to Jiang Xuewei, "my daughter is not afraid, not afraid, we still have a year, we can slowly find the antidote..."


    Feng Xin listened and sneered.


    Jiang huailan glanced, "what are you laughing at?"


    Feng Xin said lazily, "you don''t look at your current situation. Do you think you can go out of the palace alive today?"


    Jiang huailan said angrily, "Feng Xin! You are treacherous! Your master, wuchenzi, has received great kindness from our Yu family. Is that how you repay us? "


    Feng Xin was still lazy and said, "I would like to follow my master''s instructions and protect the Yongzi order Lord. Keep her safe. But you, facing your own niece, how can you do it? "


    Jiang huailan snorted coldly, "isn''t she the real leader of Yongzi? Others don''t know, don''t you know?!"


    When the Empress Dowager was on the, Feng Xin didn''t explain again. Instead, she said, "even if she isn''t, what about Xianglan? Is Xianglan always your own niece? "


    Jiang huailan was silent. Suddenly, her body swooped. Her five fingers like an iron hook grabbed sun Yao''s throat the next moment. She said, "become a king and defeat an enemy. I have nothing to say. It''s just that I can''t do it today. I''ll find an antidote for my daughter... As long as you let my mother and daughter go, I''ll keep her safe. "


    Feng Xin said with a slight smile, "do you threaten the royal family members of the current Dynasty with the life of your sister, a former royal family who had planned to usurp the throne? Don''t you think it''s ridiculous? "


    Zhuo Xi and Feng Xin sing double reed, "yes! Do you think her hatred with us is not deep enough? It''s better for you to do it. It''s just to get rid of our big trouble. "


    Jiang huailan looked at the empress dowager, "empress dowager, don''t you pity Prince Huan? Aren''t you afraid of losing his biological mother? "


    The empress dowager, who had been looking coldly at her without saying a word, showed pity. "Everyone Jiang, I have known you for many years. I really didn''t expect that there were so many hidden feelings behind this matter. What''s more, I didn''t expect you to have such a means. "


    The implication is that she is not threatened. She is the Empress Dowager of two dynasties. She has seen a lot of strife in the harem. How can she be so ridiculously threatened?


    Jiang huailan laughed, "Mingying, have you seen it? Even if you give up your mother''s hatred, do you have a good look at your mother-in-law who has been serving you for so many years? Even if you want to put down the butcher''s knife and become a Buddha, and want to really treat them as a family, what about them? They want you to die at the hands of others! They don''t kill you, but they''re afraid that they''ll dirty their hands and can''t block the long mouth of the world! "


    Without any resistance, sun Yao just closed her eyes and read two Buddhist names, "I wanted to be a Green Lantern Buddha. If I can die at your hands, I will make atonement for giving up my hatred, betraying Yu family. You do it. "


    At this time, Jiang huailan regretted it. She turned around and looked around. The hot potato on her hand was neither dumped nor not dumped.


    At this time, the forgotten lady Chang''an on the ground suddenly got up quickly, rushed towards Jiang huailan like a shell, grabbed her hand pinching sun Yao''s neck and bit it. Jiang huailan was upset because her daughter was poisoned. She fought with Fengxin twice. Her reaction was not as fast as before. Therefore, when Mrs. Chang''an rushed over, she didn''t escape for a moment. A sharp pain came from the outside of her right arm. She instinctively let go and grabbed sun Yao''s five fingers. A raised his hand and waved Mrs. chang''anbo out.


    Mrs. chang''anbo threw herself on the wall from a distance, and a stream of blood gushed out of her mouth.


    Then they remembered the existence of Mrs. chang''anbo.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized, "it turns out that Mrs. chang''anbo is also from the feather door?" She looked at Xianglan with burning eyes. Such important information was not reported to her?


    Xianglan was also surprised. She had screened the people in Kyoto feather gate before, and didn''t find that anyone had been among Mrs. Bo.


    Jiang huailan sneered, "that''s all. I tell you, she used to be my maid. Later, she was sent to Chang''an Bo''s house and became a stepdaughter so soon. Originally, I saw that she had a good means, which made her foreshadow today. Unexpectedly, she was also a stupid man. "


    Mrs. Chang''an climbed over painfully and begged, "I know I''ve made a big mistake today. Today''s affairs have nothing to do with Chang''an Bofu, the son of the world, and the son''s wife. I beg the empress dowager, the emperor and the empress to be gracious, and I am willing to die to apologize! "

 Chapter 258

    Zhuo Xi looked at the Empress Dowager and the emperor. Seeing that they had no intention to intervene at all, she said coldly, "to assassinate the Empress Dowager is a capital crime of killing nine families. With your light words, you want to write it off?" She knew that Mrs. Chang''an Bo deliberately mentioned the son of the world''s wife. That was her third sister. If she wanted to really kill even the nine tribes, wouldn''t she even let her third sister go?


    Mrs. chang''anbo knelt down on the ground and pulled out a piece of sheepskin from her sleeve. "Empress, this is the new hidden pile layout of the feather door arranged by everyone Jiang. If you find it useful, madam, please forgive Chang''an Bo''s house! "


    Jiang huailan was so angry that she was about to kick her. Fengxin stopped her.


    Mrs. Chang''an put the parchment respectfully on the ground. Unexpectedly, she quickly took out a thing from her arms and stabbed Jiang Xuewei lying on the ground with cold light.


    Median heart position.


    Jiang Xuewei, who was awakened by stabbing pain, made a cry of pain.


    Jiang huailan, who was tangled with Fengxin, lost her mind. She slapped Fengxin in the middle of her chest and gushed blood.


    Ignoring Feng Xin behind her, she made a big turn in the air, rushed straight to Jiang Xuewei on the ground and kicked Mrs. Chang''an on the head.


    Jiang Xuewei weakly pressed the dagger on her chest with one hand. Her eyes were empty. She heard her mother''s anxious call, "Xuewei, Xuewei!" Her divine sense gradually returned, tried her best to push the people next to her, and shouted, "Mom, go!"


    She tried her best to push and shout, but in Jiang huailan''s body, she felt and heard only weak strength and voice.


    But she suddenly wanted to understand something. She jumped up in a hurry and instinctively wanted to jump out of the palace gate.


    Feng Xin''s voice sounded faintly, "it''s really cruel for a woman to leave her own daughter behind!"


    The figure in the air was shocked. She saw a slender figure standing at the door. She knew that it was the dark guard with high martial arts around the queen.


    She fell down decadent and aged in an instant. She ran back to her daughter. Jiang Xuewei''s eyes were loose. She gently picked up her daughter''s body and leaned against her arms. From the corner of her eyes, she saw the Chang''an lady who was kicked to pieces by her foot and lay silent on the ground. Her heart was full of despair and sadness.


    Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been in a dilemma. How could she not know that the maid must be well prepared for such a dilemma. Whether successful or not, she will try to use the biggest chip she can come up with in exchange for the peace of Bo''s house. Even if it is not safe, it can at least slightly reduce the degree of involvement in Bo''s house. Besides, her daughter-in-law is the third sister of the queen. With such an amulet, Bo''s mansion can avoid killing the nine families. Her last blow apparently killed Jiang Xuewei, who had no hope of detoxification. In fact, she was trying to get rid of Jiang huailan''s last concern and win the last chance to escape.


    But Xuewei, her daughter, how could she really leave her dying to run for her life?


    She felt her daughter''s life passing by and her body cold.


    The scene was a little bloody, and the ending was no longer in suspense. Zhuo Xi had advised the Empress Dowager to go back to the bedroom to have a rest. Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi helped her in.


    Jing Yuan''s steps were a little heavy.


    The Empress Dowager sat on the dresser and held Jing Yuan''s hand. "Yuan''er, don''t blame yourself too much. This is also an accident. You arranged so much, saved Xi''er and asked Feng Xin to stare at Mrs. Jiang. If it hadn''t been for Fengxin, Mrs. Jiang would have succeeded. Where can I sit here alive now? "


    Zhuo Xi took off the hairpin ring quietly for the empress dowager, and said, "did she arrange Liu Meiniang in the broken post station that day? Husband, you have saved us many times. After today''s work, this cancer will eventually be removed. You really don''t have to blame yourself. "


    Jing Yuan slowly knelt down and fell on the Empress Dowager''s knee, "mother, you''re frightened."


    Tears flashed from the corners of the Empress Dowager''s eyes, "this is the obsession and killing of the royal family. I hope that my son, the children and grandchildren of the Daliang royal family, will not have this obsession in the future, and there is no need for brothers and brothers to kill each other. "


    Zhuo Xi''s hand firmly pressed Jing Yuan''s hands on the Empress Dowager''s lap and said briskly, "it''s impossible to have us!"


    Jing Yuan raised his eyes and looked at Zhuo Xi. His face also became firm and resolute, "yes, it''s impossible to have us!" How could he let him and Xi''er''s children fight to death for this nihilistic power?


    The Empress Dowager smiled and folded her hands on them. "It''s nice to have you."


    Mother Su brought water in, saluted the three, and said, "emperor, Wuhe asked someone to remind you that the cabinet meeting is about to begin..."


    After leaving, Taijing nodded goodbye.


    Zhuo Xi asked someone to fetch water, clean her face for the empress dowager, and serve her to lie down and rest. Then she went out.


    When Zhuo Xi came out, Jiang huailan had the same dagger in her chest and swallowed her breath.


    Feng Xin made a self cutting move towards her, then stood aside with her and watched coldly as the palace people rushed in to remove the body, and then brought water to wipe the floor.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with her breast. "So, you are patient to listen to my long speech in Ning''an palace. In fact, you are waiting for Jiang huailan to enter the palace?"


    Feng Xin smiled and shook the round fan he had been holding in his hand, "it''s not exactly true. You see, didn''t I find it? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at the round fan in her hand and smiled bitterly, "did you know that the third sister asked her sister-in-law to send the warning on the round fan?" The round fan painted a cluster of orchids, in which lay an animal like a snake. Beside the strange stone, there was a little man who seemed to sleep. At that time, she didn''t know the meaning of the painting. Now it seems that it is too obvious.


    Feng Xin picked up the round fan and shook it. There was still a fragrance flowing out. "I didn''t understand until I saw it this morning, but I didn''t expect that Mrs. Jiang still hid the chess piece of Mrs. Chang''an. I didn''t expect that Mrs. amber, the hall chief, would be so desperate. What''s more, I didn''t expect that Mrs. Bo Shizi of Chang''an would warn you. "


    Zhuo Xi was very guilty, "it''s only because I didn''t find the abnormality earlier." She should have expected that on the night of the grand wedding, except for several direct relatives of the royal family, there were only Mrs. Chang''an and Mrs. Qingyuan. He was still too naive to think that he would appease the two ladies by marriage. Who knows, it became the fuse of her desperate gamble. What is she worried about? Are you worried that your third sister will start at her after she marries the son of God, so as to remove the obstacles for her and host the Zhongfu feed as soon as possible? Doesn''t she know that the relationship between the third sister and the empress is not good?


    Fengxin said a fair word, "it''s strange that you didn''t expect that although she is your third sister who doesn''t have much affection, she can report to you regardless of the husband''s family she will rely on all her life in the future. Did she make a contribution? However, you have to decide what to do with Chang''an Bo''s house. I''ll go back first. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and watched Feng Xin go out of the hall.


    Xianglan was still kneeling, and sun Yao closed her eyes and chanted.


    Zhuo Xi said again, "Xianglan, check the dark pile map, screen it again, and punish those who have evil intentions. At the same time, send sun Yao back to Bai''an palace. "


    Xianglan kowtowed three times and helped sun Yao away.


    Zhuo Xi still had a faint smell of blood on her nose. When she thought of what the Empress Dowager had just said, she sighed. Can the royal children really escape such fate and obsession? Can our children escape the temptation of power in the future? Also, a lifetime is so long. Can he really realize what he said about one person for a lifetime?


    She returned to Ning''an palace with a heavy heart. Her stomach began to rumble and found that she had forgotten to eat lunch.


    As she called people to see her son''s situation, she asked people to set a meal room, and asked people to go to Ning''an palace and Zichen Palace separately to arrange lunch.


    The next day, a proposal was unanimously approved by the cabinet. The emperor happily used Dabao''s will to inform the world. All officials and people were in an uproar.


    It was a cool day. Monogamy will be implemented from now on. Don''t investigate the past, don''t be lazy in the future. It means that the family with one wife and multiple concubines is still the same, but no new people are allowed. As for the external rooms and general rooms already owned, the government gave 10 days for each family to supplement and file. If there is neither an outside room nor a connecting room at home, no concubine shall be taken in the future if the marriage letter is sent to the government for the record from the same day. If there are no children after marriage for many years, the husband and wife can marry separately. This provision also explicitly stipulates husband and wife and separation, and puts husband and wife on an equal position for the first time. As a result, there has been a high tide of supplementary filing all over the country. Married people with acceptable conditions at home have added filing to the government one after another, taking the "outer room" already kept outside into the government. Unmarried people have taken the maid in their home to supplement the record. Without conditions, we can only sigh. So the government found that some unmarried people were only eight years old when they went for the record with the general room list. Therefore, the cabinet hastily issued a supplementary regulation, stipulating that the marriageable age of men is 18 years old, and women can get married only after the age of 16. All concubines outside the house shall be implemented according to this age.


    When Zhuo Xi heard the news, she was so surprised that her pen fell out. She deeply reflected on whether her concept of monogamy had deeply affected her husband, the emperor. Originally, it was just a matter of two people. They kidnapped the unmarried men and women in the whole cool overnight.


    Suddenly, such a wild marriage law hit the whole coolness, which was no less sensational than letting students all over the country take the imperial examination on the same day. For women, it''s natural to clap their hands. But for the man''s family, the most profound worry lies in the issue of offspring. After the imperial examination system, the scholars who are good at debate at Dongjiekou launched a debate on whether monogamy has more advantages than disadvantages or disadvantages than advantages. The debate lasted more than a month. There was no result in the argument, but some people attacked the long-standing disadvantages of polygamy, such as sibling violence and the elimination of human nature. Naturally, others lamented the importance of the honor and disgrace of the family and the prosperity of people. However, compared with the two, the former is obviously too bloody and violent, and it is extremely tragic. The latter says that it is too unlikely that there are no children, and it can be solved by divorce, remarriage, inheritance and adoption. So people who listen to it gradually feel that children may not need too much and prosperity, and it is enough to cultivate one or two elites.

 Chapter 259

    At the end of the year, Wu Xing finally came back.


    At the same time, Wang Feng and Jian Yi came back.


    They returned to Kyoto City as a victorious division, and all officials went out to meet them for thirty miles.


    Then he went into the palace to meet the son of heaven. The imperial edict came out. Wang Feng was granted the rank of Pingyuan general. It was easy to promote Dongping general, Wu Xing to Three-Life marching Sima, and everyone else was promoted.


    A few days later, an imperial edict 800 Li was sent to the eastern expedition army that did not return to Beijing. According to the military merit report submitted by the general, the whole army was rewarded on merit, including the grace of grace, the reward of reward, the pursuit of pursuit, and the promotion of promotion.


    Everyone in the eastern expedition was happy.


    Only Wang Feng beat drums up and down in his heart.


    He used to be a two life general, but now he has been promoted to a one life general, only one level. Although it is impossible to ascend, Jian Yiyuan is his deputy general, and now he has become a life-long general on an equal footing with him. That means that if he takes the order to fight again, Jianyi can''t be his deputy general. Although from another point of view, Jian Yi and Wu Xing are old people of the emperor, and it is understandable to be promoted two levels. However, when he found that Bai Zhong, Jing Yu and other frontier generals who had been on an expedition came back with their own guards, he was a little suspicious in his heart.


    This suspicion was finally confirmed by an order issued by the cabinet on December 20: according to the cabinet''s decision, they should hand in the commander''s seal before the seal on December 25, so as to change the border defense next year.


    The tiger amulet was handed over to the emperor on the day he returned to the palace. The symbol of the general''s jurisdiction over his troops is the handsome seal. If the handsome seal is handed over, the general will have no soldiers in his hands. When you think about it, in just over half a month, several frontier generals were gathered in Kyoto City at the same time, and you can''t help but feel a sad heart cooked by rabbits and dead foxes.


    If a general holds a heavy army and the strongest weapon in the world, it is refreshing to open up territory. But now that the five countries have decided to stay in the same place for a long time, it is inevitable that the superior will not have some fear. Bai Zhong understood this truth, but the cabinet''s decision was the emperor''s intention. They had no right or power to refuse. They could only happily reunite with their families.


    So on December 23, several senior generals received invitations from the Military Academy at the same time.


    On December 25, Jing Yuan, President of the military academy, and Jian Yun, executive vice president, jointly received the four generals, accompanied by Wu Xing, former executive vice president.


    The crowd visited and observed the students'' class. Most of them didn''t think so. Real experience and theory are summed up from actual combat. However, when they read their original self-made teaching materials in such a large library and the academic works on teaching materials by several old scholars just released recently, they turned up a storm in their hearts.


    Sima FA said that "war can be ended by war", and the general view of war can be understood behind closed doors.


    But who is this grandson? Such an unknown person is certainly not a general of a country. I haven''t fought a war. How did you write the thirty-six plans?


    In addition, the "six Tao" is simply the epitome of military war strategy! What "the husband fish eats its bait, but leads it in the rope, and the man eats its salary, but obeys the king. Therefore, fish can be killed by bait. If you take people with your salary, you can exhaust them. Take the country by home, and the country can be pulled out. Take the world with the country, and the world can be completed. " It''s golden advice! And the "kiss their loved ones to divide their power. One person has two hearts, one of which has heart failure. If there is no loyal minister in the court, the country will be in danger. "Yin bribes are around, and the feeling is very deep. Inside and outside, the country will cause harm "... It''s easy to master the hearts of the people, and the score is not bad! Where the hell is this Taigong?! How can this man observe people''s hearts so secretly? Is he still alive? If you are alive, you must invite him to discuss it together. what? Is it dead? Where is the mausoleum? If I have a chance, I must go to the tomb to worship


    When they arrived at the simulated training ground, they saw with their own eyes the whole set of practice of a series of special training, such as archery, Pegasus capture, cliff climbing, parachute swimming and so on. All of them were messy in the wind... Their eyes were straight


    Finally, when they were taken to the secret meeting room and sat down, they didn''t return to their original places.


    After the host Wu Xing made an impassioned speech, several people suddenly found that the queen was sitting beside the emperor.


    They had just learned that the military academy was built by the empress under the introduction of Wu Xing and Jian Yun. Therefore, although they were surprised to see the empress, they all showed respect and admiration.


    Earlier, Zhuo Xi had several discussions with Jing Yuan on what happened after the reunification of the five countries. Just last night, Jing Yuan mentioned that she was going to change the defense of those generals in the coming year. She asked a sharp question, "emperor, have you ever thought about what to do with the generals, troops and artillery after the unification of the five countries? Now there are at least 20 iron cannons. Although they are scattered in the surrounding border areas, Kyoto, as a confidant, has become the place with the weakest defense force. Do you really rest assured that Wang Feng and Jing Yu hold heavy soldiers, take charge of artifact and guard the border areas? "


    Jing Yuan said slowly, "Wang Feng and Bai Zhong''s parents, wife and children are in Kyoto. Jianyi is my secret guard. There is no doubt about his loyalty. Jingyu has been loyal for three generations. If they want to reverse, what is it? Wang Han has always been a loner. He can''t leave his children. Even if he wants to fight, who can he leave his family property to? There''s your big brother over there in Ruihe city. There can''t be any trouble. Will he ignore his wife, children, parents and your sister? "


    Zhuo Xi was silent. She didn''t expect that there were so many cruel facts behind Jing Yuan''s plan for a rainy day. As an emperor, she has no choice.


    Zhuo Xi turned out the map of the kingdom of Yudian, which had not been used for a long time, and asked, "emperor, have you sent someone to explore places outside this map?"


    Jing Yuan hesitated and said, "it is said that there are vast sea areas outside the east of this picture. So far, no one has been able to draw a map of the sea area. The other three sides are land, close to more than a dozen small countries. "


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes brightened and reminded him, "if someone can build a boat to sea, or continue to expand their territory and bring back countless wealth outside, what do you think of our health government plan? It''s possible to speed up the implementation. No? " The primitive accumulation of evil capital... Let her experience it yourself? There is no reason why I have such an idea ahead of the times and can''t complete the evolution of the social model ahead of time? Even if it can''t be done, at least one can be pushed? However, she can''t throw out such shocking ideas at once. She can only stick to the health government office plan she has in mind. Everything is for money!


    Jing Yuan was stunned. He didn''t think of the problem at all. After the reunification of the five countries, on the surface, the dozens of mountain cannons are a major problem for him. No one can expect that someone will plan for several years, decades or even longer. After mastering these dozens of cannons, they will aim at the capital city. Nor will it be expected that in a few years, someone will support the army and become an independent country with only dozens of cannons. Although the production method of this cannon is in his own hands, the right to use it is now completely delegated to the frontier soldiers. Which country''s monarch can allow these sharp weapons to stay permanently on the periphery without border combat crisis? However, if there is a new demand for expanding Xinjiang and territory, these weapons can not only be more fully utilized, but also greatly reduce the possibility of these soldiers plotting rebellion. As long as the officers and men have the ambition to make achievements, as long as they have endless wars and military achievements, they will not turn their minds to China. Moreover, according to Zhuo Xi''s previous statement, now the whole Daliang country is not rich and the people are not strong. It is very necessary to develop new resources to increase national wealth. The whole national system will be sound and strong. Thinking of this, Jing Yuan didn''t say a word, picked up Zhuo Xi and went out.


    Zhuo Xi was startled, struggled and said, "where are you taking me again? If it''s still that study, I won''t go again. "


    Jing Yuan still laughed, "I''m happy today. I''ll take you to a different place. It''s definitely not that study."


    As a result, when they left the door, they both realized that it was already the middle of the month


    So the next day, Jing Yuan mysteriously took Zhuo Xi here.


    Although she had the feeling of "being cheated again", she saw with her own eyes that the military academy planned and designed by Lin Lang operated in an orderly manner, and her pride was born spontaneously.


    Now, looking at the four generals holding heavy soldiers sitting below one by one, their complacency is even more prosperous.


    Jing Yuan didn''t talk nonsense. He directly opened a new complete map of Daliang and spread it on the table. He asked, "who can redraw a map of Daliang territory, including the sea map and land map outside Daliang territory?"


    As soon as they said this, the generals looked at each other and saw new desires and killings in each other''s eyes.


    This is too clear.


    The purpose of confiscating the seals is not to remove their military power, but to open up new territories?


    Wang Feng took the lead in responding, "there are more than ten reprimanders in the minister''s army, all of whom are good at spying and drawing. I would like to try the countries in the south. "


    Jianyi is obviously very interested in the sea, "I am willing to go to the East Sea."


    The other two reacted slowly and had to snatch the remaining poor ridge areas in the West and North.


    Wu Xing was stunned. I can''t believe that the new division of power has just begun, and it was divided on all sides in a few seconds?


    After the partition, draw a map. After drawing?


    Zhuo Xi asked with a smile, "dare you ask, does anyone know what sea dial is? How to distinguish hills and basins? How to indicate the depth of the sea and the height of the mountains? How to distinguish official roads from river courses on the map? "


    It is said that these are the necessary basic knowledge for marching and fighting, but the four new generals can''t say a word.


    Zhuo Xi asked again with a smile, "I dare ask you, but does anyone know what precautions are for sea operations? Does anyone know the advantages and disadvantages of desert warfare?

 Chapter 260

    Zhuo Xi asked with a smile, "dare you ask, does anyone know what sea dial is? How to distinguish hills and basins? How to indicate the depth of the sea and the height of the mountains? How to distinguish official roads from river courses on the map? "


    It is said that these are the necessary basic knowledge for marching and fighting, but the four new generals can''t say a word.


    Zhuo Xi asked again with a smile, "I dare ask you, but someone knows the vast sea, how to avoid danger and how to identify treasures? How to fight against pirates? What are the precautions for maritime operations? Can someone know how to survive in thousands of miles of desert and how to camp? What are the advantages and disadvantages of desert warfare? "


    There is still a blank look below


    She was good at learning and was used to the strange ideas that came out of this strange woman from time to time. After a moment of confusion, she immediately cheered up, spoke with a happy face and asked, "my mother means that my mother gave me all these methods and knowledge?" Although I have captured the sea area, if I can learn the methods and experience of desert marching at the same time, wouldn''t I be more useful?


    Others suddenly realized that they threw grateful eyes at Jianyi one after another. They all had the idea that "this new general doesn''t have the personality of being arrogant in his imagination. Remember to enlighten us with such important care".


    Wang Feng immediately hugged his fist and said, "if you can get the instruction of your mother, I will be honored."


    The others repeated, "if you can get the instruction of your mother, I will be honored." His face was full of excitement.


    Zhuo Xi refused with a smile, "the technology industry has a specialty. This palace only raises the problem of fighting under extreme conditions and extreme weather. How to solve it is the answer you want to pursue. What''s more, a person''s knowledge and experience are limited. What kind of arms he needs and what kind of professional knowledge he should have are your business. You can''t push it to our palace. The door of the military academy is open to all the generals. "


    Bai Zhong touched his head and melon seeds. After seeing the emperor who liked the head, he said in a faint voice, "what does your mother mean, let''s study in the college? It''s good to learn the new art of war and be familiar with the combat methods in the new environment. It''s very helpful for us to expand our territory in the coming year... "We''ll know after we go to the battlefield. We can sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime. As a senior general, how can I do without studying these new strategies for marching operations? What''s more, the library like the treasure house. Oh, no, what''s the name of the library here? If I can chew all the art of war here and talk with those old pedants... What kind of immortal day is this? In the future... Are you afraid of missing the opportunity to build great achievements?


    Jing Yun heard a different meaning and asked impolitely, "the emperor and empress, but we specify what kind of arms we need and what knowledge we should have, and the military academy can cultivate such talents?"


    Wang Feng couldn''t help looking at Jing Yu, the son of the Duke of Yizhou, who had no chance to deal with before. He always thought that he had the opportunity to attack Xu Zou by relying on his blood relationship with the emperor, so he made great achievements and sealed the general. Before visiting the military academy, he kept silent and thought he was a straw bag outside of gold and jade. On hearing this, he slightly put away his contempt. He had the same idea just now, but he was afraid that he was too extravagant. How can the king of a country allow generals to cultivate their own people in the military academy?


    Zhuo Xi then handed back the right to speak to Jing Yuan, covered her mouth and said with a smile, "you have to ask your emperor''s president!"


    Many of her insiders know that Wu Guojing will achieve unification in the future. She also knows that she has obviously played an important role in these great undertakings of Jingyuan. Now only she knows and can explain some technical levels that exceed the development of the times. But she knows herself. She is more a dreamer than a doer. If Jing Yuan hadn''t spared no effort in support and implementation, she couldn''t realize all her ideas one by one. Therefore, if it is necessary to talk about who has achieved who, she feels that Jing Yuan has accomplished herself. It was his great feat and her sense of accomplishment.


    Therefore, although the military academy was born in her blueprint at the beginning, it is a military plan after all, but she doesn''t want to mess with it at all. If they need her to provide advice and ideas, they can, but if they want to make decision-making theory and implementation, she can''t do it!


    But where is the ambition she once had?


    She sighed and decided to go back and think about it.


    Thinking back, she listened to Jing Yuan''s voice calmly and brightly. She didn''t listen carefully. She just felt that the atmosphere of the whole conference room had become unusually solemn and quiet. It''s strange that those people were very relaxed just now, especially Jing Yun, who could ask himself questions in a relaxed tone. Why did Jing Yuan''s waist immediately look like a machine gun as soon as he spoke? But they were dumb guns, the kind of guns blocked by people... She could clearly feel that there were countless bullets ready to go in their chest... But they all held the muzzle tightly... The atmosphere was so tense and quiet that she seemed to hear their consistent rapid heartbeat.


    She glanced at Jing Yuan, who was talking freely, and saw his handsome side face and sparkling eyes. She remembered that every time he stepped into the hall in Ning''an palace, the originally relaxed and happy atmosphere would immediately become urgent and low, and the people serving in the hall would immediately be atmospheric and dare not go out. She suddenly thought, is this the majesty of the emperor?


    She looked carefully at the six people sitting opposite. Jian Yi, Wu Xing and Jian Yun were fine. They sat in the middle of the chair, holding their breath and looking respectful. The other three people all hung their heads and eyes, bowed their backs slightly, their chest was very close to the table, and their hands hung under the table. This is a typical uncomfortable sitting position afraid of sitting at the same table with the king. Obviously, they are not used to the meeting mode of sitting around the table.


    She looked at him with a smile. It seemed that neither the monarch and Minister mode nor the leadership mode would damage his Imperial Majesty.


    It''s only been more than a year since he ascended the throne


    Is it because you are too familiar with him? I didn''t know that his imperial authority was so prosperous


    However, his serious appearance is really handsome


    "... there is still a year and a half before the first batch of two-year graduates in the next year. They can also be selected by you..." has it been talked about employment from enrollment? She thought carelessly. Jing Yuan''s voice came coldly into her absent heart. It had no softness when whispering in the middle of the night, but it had another charm to her


    She couldn''t help thinking of his speechless words when she first met him, and generously admitted in a blink that she refused to drink water because she was worried about internal urgency, but she was not embarrassed... Later, when he was sleepless at midnight, his warm company and murmuring whispers, the soft tone of his proposal, the lazy talk when he relieved the cold and incense poison, and the bloody proposal and worship of heaven and earth


    That was a scene she would never want to think of.


    Because as soon as she thought of it, she would feel very stupid. She, a doctor, was frightened by the patient''s disease during detoxification. What he said was what... So confused that she worshipped heaven and earth... She still didn''t understand. Why was he deceived at the beginning? Even if she didn''t know that tianhanxiang would vomit a lot of blood when detoxifying, she should believe Fengxin and the antidote left by Xianru imperial concubine. She remembered that at the beginning, he had "three pains" since Chen. One was that his mother died but not on his side, the other was that his father died but was traveling far, and the third was his joking refusal. She didn''t expect that one of her jokes was compared with the first two by him, which shows his intention to himself. Perhaps at that time, I unknowingly felt pain and chaos. There is a word called "care is chaos". Was he not shocked by the "three pains" he said at that time, but that he had already fallen in love with him subconsciously? Otherwise, how can he easily accept his company when he has insomnia at night? It''s so easy to see him spit blood and lose all his calmness? That''s easy to hurt, messy? So easy to accept his so-called "wedding night"?


    When did you start to move?


    She began to recall forward. In her empty eyes, she suddenly received the action of the opposite person getting up and saluting them. She woke up with a thrill.


    What happened?


    Jing Yuan didn''t get up, but leaned back relaxed, then waved at will, and the six people in front saluted and retreated.


    Wuhe, who had been waiting outside, closed the door of the conference room with eyes.


    "Why did Zhuo Xi shake her hand? What do you think of? For so long? " He had long found that she was wandering outside the sky and had a detailed question to ask her, but he was afraid that she would lose face because she was distracted and couldn''t answer for a moment.


    Zhuo Xi still supported her cheek with her right hand, tilted her head and said with a smile, "because I found that men who work hard are the most handsome!"


    He rarely heard a compliment from her and was elated. He couldn''t help asking, "work? What is the job? "


    "Just work!" She doesn''t want to.


    He was a sword eyebrow, "work hard?"


    ¡­¡­


    How could such a normal conversation be said by him, as if it had a tendency to go astray?


    Er... But because of the picture that Mao thought of, do you still think he is super handsome? Especially the chest covered with thin sweat, the dark hair wet on the forehead


    She couldn''t help closing her eyes and removing the beautiful picture in her mind, but she was spinning around for no reason. She was in his arms.


    He kissed her hard.


    Which man can resist the adoring eyes and red fruit praise of his beloved woman? Even the hints are suck. How can he not force to express such an atmosphere of such an occasion?


    But soon he felt the obstacle. Who designed the chair? It''s hard and small, and the armrest is high. It''s not as comfortable as the Dragon chair in Zichen hall!


    He had to stop his hand angrily.


    Seeing her blushing and coming out of her arms, she was in a better mood and couldn''t help laughing.


    She moved her body and sat more comfortable. Then she carefully stretched her legs under the handrail and sat on his waist.


    He gradually stopped laughing and looked at her warmly.


    This goblin


    Sure enough, she moved again.


    He could already feel the rapid change of his body under his clothes.


    He grabbed her waist and leaned forward, but her fingers blocked his lips.


    She giggled and shook more and more.


    When he opened his mouth, her fingers on his lips fell into his mouth and sucked gently.


    She was stunned and hurriedly took out the fingers trapped in the warm trap.


    He put his other hand around her head and quickly put it on her lips. The five fingers in the waist stroked gently, ready to probe into the warm skin, but she heard her low whisper, "this place can''t do."


    He woke up and remembered where this was. His men were relaxed.


    This is a school.


    It is a school that scholars regard as a holy land.


    The next moment, her legs kicked on both sides of the chair legs, and she turned over and jumped out.


    He looked at his tent with a wry smile.


    She laughed, stood still, then straightened her skirt, coughed, opened the door and walked out.


    The corners of his lips could not help laughing. This is his queen, his wife, his little lady. It was neither flattery nor awe and obedience, and always only showed her free will in front of him. How can he not like such an arbitrary person who dares to flirt with the son of heaven?

 Chapter 261

    At the same time, chunnuan finally woke up.


    The queen gave her half a month off to have a good rest.


    After chunnuan poisoning, Ji ruomin has returned and continues to take the responsibility of running calligraphy in the inner palace.


    Two days later, Ning''an palace welcomed an unexpected guest.


    At that time, Zhuo Xi was arranging the distribution of Laba porridge inside and outside the palace, as well as the communication with the major princes and concubines on the new year''s day. When he heard the news, he was overjoyed. He didn''t care about the regular logistics meeting being held, so he directly asked them to leave. After finishing his clothes, he went to the main hall and met the visitors.


    The visitor came in with a lamp, respectfully placed the lamp carefully on the ground in front of the queen, and then made a big gift, "see the queen, the queen is blessed and safe."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Xiao Meng, please get up quickly. Come up and let me see. "


    It was Yu Meng who took over the oil smelting in Liangzhou. However, after nearly a year of separation, the half boy of that year has grown much taller.


    Zhuo Xi carefully studied him and said, "no wonder Kou Niang wants to get engaged when his baby is ten years old. My little Meng has grown taller and more handsome in just one year. Although it''s a little dark, but look at your muscles and bones, you''ve suffered a lot this year, haven''t you? "


    Yu Meng''s dark face showed a shy look, "go back to your mother, master Lin Lang taught me a lot. I experimented with everything she said. What''s the name of chemistry? It''s really interesting. "


    Zhuo Xi asked someone to give him a seat and said with a smile, "it seems that you refined a kind of black oil in your last letter? Do you think of its use? " At the beginning, Lin Lang was eager to use oil related products on shells. She first taught him to refine clear oil, and then regularly sent it to a cave in Wulin mountain, before she had a incendiary bomb... But she didn''t explain other oil products. She didn''t see it personally, so she couldn''t judge for him.


    Yu mengxiao said, "this black oil is a viscous substance precipitated under the clear oil layer. The slave and several companions once accidentally spilled black oil on the sand. The sand soon became a hard piece. We used black oil to mix the sand and paste the roof of our house. It was very waterproof... "


    Zhuo Xi thought, "is it asphalt? It can also be used to pave the road... "


    Yu Meng opened his eyes, "what? To pave the road? Is it too extravagant? " As soon as he finished, he was surprised that he had said something wrong. In front of him, he was the empress. He didn''t say to use this calendar to pave the road, even with gold, silver and jade.


    Zhuo Xi also felt that he was wrong. This oil is a rare item, and ordinary people know nothing at all. Naturally, the owner of this technology thinks that these products should be extremely expensive, which is not affordable for ordinary people, not to mention paving the road... Not only the amount is large, but also these precious things are paved on the ground, and people can afford the word "luxury".


    But Yu Meng bent down and took the lamp on the ground to Zhuo Xi.


    "You see, I made this!"


    Zhuo Xi took it and found that it was a glass lamp. There was a layer of clear liquid under the lamp holder, and a wick in the middle burned quietly in the round bulb above.


    Zhuo Xi tut tut praised and gave a thumbs up, "you are so powerful! Glass can be made! "


    Yu Meng was dazed and disappointed. "It turns out that this thing is called colored glass... I thought it was the first colored glass lamp in the world... Unexpectedly, you have seen it..."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "I''ve seen it, but it''s not here, it''s in a distant hometown. So here, this is indeed the first glass lamp born in the sky. " She knew that the earliest colored glass appeared in the hands of alchemists in ancient times, which is similar to the oxidation of lead minerals and contact with the clay composition on the inner wall of ceramic pots and cauldrons. As long as the wall temperature reaches about 900 ¡æ, a layer of lead glaze will be formed on the walls of pots and cauldrons, which is the original colored glass. However, looking at the lamp in his hand, it is obvious that it has been tempered and tested for thousands of times. Not only the appearance is smooth and not rough, but also the bulb and base can be separated. It seems that he has spent a lot of thought. She praised again, "the exquisite of this thing is rare in the world. Can you heat shape it? Can you record the formula and technology of glass production? "


    Yu Meng was excited again. "Naturally, it was recorded. With oil as fuel, our temperature can easily rise a lot. This kind of glass can be made by forging lead ore into ash and then exercising it with a kind of bright sand and stone. However, we tried day and night for more than a month before we produced such a lamp. Although it is brighter than the lantern, the surface of the lamp still turns yellow, and the lighting range is only a small circle... Master once said that in your school, the headlights are extremely bright, and some can even shoot a hundred meters... "


    Zhuo Xi laughed and was surprised at his imagination. How can an ordinary oil lamp be compared with an electric lamp? She then said tactfully, "if your glazed lamp is larger and the wick is thicker, will it be able to illuminate a larger space? If it''s not bright enough, just put a few more. Besides, the candle is yellow, and the color is nothing. But if you can add some other colors, such as red, orange, yellow and green, wouldn''t it be more beautiful? "


    Yu Meng''s eyes lit up and couldn''t help shouting out with the old name, "sister! You are so clever... I, how could I not have thought of... "The lamp is transparent, with other colors, only more beautiful.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and suddenly thought that since the colored glass came out, there would be new decorative materials in the Xishan villa area... It''s really a good time, place and people... God can''t let her make a fortune


    So she asked, "how many people are there in your oil team now?"


    Yu Meng thought, "at present, the Ministry of petroleum has seven ordinary production workshops. There are 80 people in the collection group, 30 people in the temperature chamber, 60 people in the calcination group, 80 people in the forging group, and more than 230 people in transportation and assembly. We stayed in the R & D group left before master left. There were 12 people. I''m the team leader! " He straightened his chest, first showing some pride, and then a little embarrassed.


    "So many people?" Zhuo Xi was surprised. She thought that there was a copper mine in Wulin mountain. Naturally, Jing Yuan''s intervention and oil were indispensable. At the beginning, she directly lost the oil part to Lin Lang. After Lin Lang left, there were more than Meng technically. There was a supervisor sent by Jing Yuan inside and Kou Niang outside. It must be nothing wrong. She was happy to be a shopkeeper. It would take three or five years for this place to make a profit. Since no one came to disclose the situation in the mountains to her, she was too lazy to ask. Who would have thought that the small Wulin mountain had developed to such a scale? But just think about the rapid production of more than 20 cannons and countless ammunition in just one year. Without this petroleum fuel, where can we achieve the ideal high temperature? Whenever a king or general has such a sharp weapon, he should use it ruthlessly. Even if he swallows it, he should speed up the speed and eat them, but it is just to increase the manpower and expand the scale. It''s hard to find anything in this era, that is, two legged slaves are really easy to find.


    She suddenly felt Jing Yuan''s dedication to this country in just over a year


    Is this speed too fast Why did he?


    Yu Meng looked a little dissatisfied. "Sister, it''s clear that Wulin mountain is your bride price. Why do you know nothing about Wulin mountain?" Moreover, all the output materials were occupied by the Emperor... He chatted with Kou Niang secretly for many times. However, in the face of those military supplies, Kou Niang did not dare to intervene at all. She just kept urging herself to produce the oil lamp that master remembered... Now there is technology, but it needs mass production. Where can I find someone? Do they dare to instruct the people sent by the emperor? Although he is not interested in making money, he can''t stand Kou Niang nagging in front of him all day, and it really concerns his sister''s interests. How can he not care?


    Zhuo Xi knew what he was thinking and couldn''t help laughing, "don''t worry, you and Kou Niang will count money until they are soft! By the way, you''re back. Is Kou Niang back? Are you coming back for the new year? After the new year, our palace will give you a large order! This is more profitable than that oil lamp! "


    Yu Meng nodded. "Kou Niang has also come back. She has handed over a post and said she wants to make an appointment with you." He touched his head and felt a little embarrassed. "I thought I was too happy to see my sister. I forgot for a moment, so I broke in directly and met my sister in the Spring Festival Gala."


    After saying that, he found that his address was in a mess, which insulted the queen. He quickly stood up and said, "queen, I''m a slave!"


    Zhuo Xi took up her airs and scolded lightly, "you are the cousin recognized by the palace. Naturally, you can have some face in front of the Spring Festival Gala! If you think you are out of line, you will completely remove the word "slave" in your heart! " He has to choose whether he is a slave or a master!


    Yu Meng looked very cold. She knew that she wanted to find her own position. What else could she choose? When he held his chest up, he arched his hands and replied brightly, "yes! Sister! " And secretly remind yourself that you must not shout about other sisters.


    He hesitated to talk with his sister before he got home


    Zhuo Xi understood and said with a smile, "now the Guang''an Hou''s house is empty, and your sister Fengxin is back. You can stay in Guang''an Hou''s house during this time! I''ll send two more boys to serve you. "


    "No, it''s not..." he hesitated and hesitated again. "I''m a little lonely living alone. How''s Xiaobai? Can I take it with me for a few days... "


    She wanted to laugh at him about whether he had grown up and knew how to miss spring... But she didn''t know that his next question was Xiaobai. She remembered that Xiaobai had almost been poisoned. Her heart hurt and her face sank.


    Yu Meng thought that it was because of this that his sister was upset, and hurriedly explained, "I dreamed that Xiaobai seemed to be hurt a few days ago. I was worried... I discussed with Kou Niang to return to Beijing in advance... And I thought I hadn''t seen it for a long time. I just wanted to see if it was good. Sister, I''ll meet him in the palace... I don''t have to ask him to accompany me... "

 Chapter 262

    Zhuo Xi was calculating the benefits of Yu Meng''s living here.


    It seems that the last time Jing Yuan asked Wu Zhen, who was responsible for the development of Xishan villa, to call him into the palace to ask.


    Last time, at the instigation of Jing Yuan, she handed over the development right of Xishan villa area to the Wu family, the first tycoon in the north of the river. In this era, beautiful land is everywhere. She has no idea of using state-owned land and houses for 70 years. She just takes land as capital and the royal construction team as manpower to take 60% of the shares of the whole Xishan villa area project. All other costs are borne by the Wu family. The head of the Wu family handed over the project to his eldest son Wu Zhenlai. She gave the whole set of real estate development and housing design concept. Wu Zhen was stunned. He borrowed pen, ink, silk inkstone and wrote down the contract on the spot.


    Zhuo Xi was afraid that such a model would be copied. He signed a letter of intent with him for the development of more than ten pieces of royal land around Kyoto, and agreed that if the Wu family used their own land to develop according to this model, the royal family would unconditionally occupy 20% of the dry shares.


    With such a contract, I''m not afraid that others dare to copy it. Who dares to compete with the royal family for intellectual property rights?


    The Wu family is more willing. The wool comes from the sheep. How can they not make a lot of money?


    Wu Zhen soon received Yizhi and came to the palace to meet him.


    It was time for the empress to kowtow to the Queen''s name


    Zhuoxi is confused, dog? Name? I named a child last month or last month... I lifted my hand, motioned him to get up and looked at him carefully, "are you..."


    Wu Zhenqi nodded, "Hong Huanchen is a dog. The grass people should have come earlier to thank the queen. First, the grass-roots people wanted to find something good to thank their mother, so they delayed their time; Second, the matter entrusted by the empress to the grass people has failed to produce results for the time being, so she is ashamed and regretted until now... Now she has been summoned by the empress, and the grass people should thank you first. "


    Zhuo Xi was frightened. She knew that Ke min''s former husband''s family was either rich or expensive, but she didn''t think it was such a rich family... And it was said that the eldest son of the Wu family had no children... How willing would she be to let bao''er really be surnamed Hong?


    She was worried about gossip for a moment and asked punously, "you didn''t enter the palace in time to thank me. It''s just a shame in your heart. Where did it come from? "


    Wu Zhen lowered her eyes and didn''t dare to look at the empress. Instead, she replied generously, "if you go back to the empress, my mother doesn''t know the reason. She rashly begged her and bumped into her. The grass people can''t regret it. The couple of Cao min and the manager of Keda failed to seize the opportunity. Cao min thought it was hard to repent. Now that she and bao''er have a good home, the grass people can protect them anyway. Please rest assured. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "this is your family business. What''s wrong with this palace? Since you have given Huanchen the surname Hong, you should also make more efforts to keep children for the Wu family. " Lest the Wu family always think about the only son and daughter of Changfang who is wandering outside. I don''t know what a big misunderstanding Ke min had with his handsome ex husband, which led to the two not only separate darts, but also made the man give up his only son. However, seeing the harmony between Ke min and Hong Quan, let the past go. It''s meaningless to investigate the truth.


    Wu Zhen looked respectfully. On that day, Ke min''s words were euphemistically conveyed to his mother and asked her to rectify the housekeeping of the long house. His mother was shocked and angry. The Lord appointed another concubine room for him and placed it outside the house. Just wait for the good news


    Zhuo Xi asked how the design sketch was now.


    Wu Zhen still looked ashamed and took out a sheepskin drawing from his sleeve. "The sketch is only half completed. It took more than a month to send someone to measure the western mountain. According to preliminary calculation, the land area of the whole Xishan Mountain is about 1600 mu, and the flat land suitable for house construction is about 700 mu... "


    Zhuo Xi asked Yu Meng to come over and motioned him to come forward and open the drawing.


    Originally, Zhuo Xi had told Wu Zhen and Kou Anting about the general requirements and procedures. He was reluctant to participate in the superfluous things. Now that he had the drawings, he had to give some advice: "... Here, around the Ganges River, a row of landscape houses can be built... Along the mountains, a carriage path can be built, winding up, and proper greening can be reserved along the way, It''s also a two row villa... Later, eh, there''s a waterfall here? It''s even better. You can build the most luxurious landscape villa on the top of the mountain opposite... "


    But in a few minutes, the whole layout was arranged.


    Wu Zhen listened carefully. Some of his ideas coincided with their original ones. Some wanted to brighten his eyes and quickly borrowed the four treasures of study to record them.


    Suddenly, I saw the queen pick up a sign on the table and dial the wick in an unknown lamp. Although it was day, I also saw that the candle was bright.


    Wu Zhen was surprised and asked, "this thing is very exquisite, but I don''t know what it is?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "this thing is called glazed lamp."


    Wu Zhen murmured, "the glazed lamp... It''s really not a mortal thing..." thinking of finding something to thank the empress, he was sweating


    As they were talking, Yu Meng came in. He had changed back to his regular clothes and kowtowed to the empress in good order. "Xiao Meng, see the empress."


    Zhuo Xi said, "this is the inventor and manufacturer of the glazed lamp, Mr. Yu Meng."


    Surprised, Wu Zhen bowed and said, "I never thought Mr. is so young and promising." Yu Meng looks only eleven or twelve years old


    Yu Meng quickly returned the gift, "Sir, I''m flattered... Just call me Xiao Meng."


    "I dare not. Cao min''s surname is Wu. How can he be a gentleman?"


    Zhuo Xi chuckled and greeted them, "don''t stand fast and give me a seat."


    She suddenly realized that Xiao Meng would start to have his own social circle. His identity is really not easy to call him


    So one of them said "Lord Wu" and the other said "Master Yu". They bowed to each other before they sat down.


    Zhuo Xi was too lazy to correct them and went straight to the theme, "Dong Wu, what do you think the glass is useful?"


    Wu Zhen remembered that in the last meeting, he was awarded the title of chairman of the board of directors. Although he hasn''t figured out the meaning of this title so far, he is not far from the chief manager and so on


    He restrained himself and replied, "if it can be used for villa interior decoration, it must be exquisite. Just don''t know, can this lamp be of any size? "


    Yu Meng was also interested. "Naturally, there are gongs, washbasins and baby fists. I can make them."


    Wu Zhenxi said, "that''s nice. At that time, the interior decoration can be customized according to the size of the space... "However, it will take at least two years to go to the interior decoration, won''t it? Empress empress started to find a market for this person so early... I don''t know how the little boy got her blue eyes?


    When he saw the empress looking at him with a smile, he recalled that she had just asked about glass... Not glass lamps? Did... He looked at the very transparent material carefully. Although it was floating with a layer of light yellow, the light transmittance was too much better than the fine silk pasted on the window. He was inspired and asked the young man, "Young Master Yu, but I don''t know if this glass has other shapes? Thickness up to geometry? "


    Yu Meng replied, "there are so many strange shapes that you can make everything. The thickness can also reach about half a Zhang. I just don''t know what Mr. Wu Dong is going to use. "


    Seeing that his sister called each other Wu Dong and didn''t know what title it was, he had to make his own decision and add the word "Sir" to show his respect.


    Hearing Zhuo Xi chuckle, "Xiao Meng, you can call him Dong Wu. Dong Wu, don''t come to me, young master Yu. Call him Xiao Meng. "


    Both said yes.


    Wu Zhen understood it very well at this time. He couldn''t help jumping in his heart and carefully verified, "if you need a square glass one inch thick and three feet square, young master Yu may make it?"


    Yu Meng said confidently, "it''s just an inch thick, and square is the easiest shape to polish. Why is it difficult? I just don''t know what color you need, Mr. Wu. "


    Wu Zhen was stunned. Can he choose a color?


    Yu Meng said with a smile, "before that, the empress reminded me that I can add some colors to the glass. I don''t know if I can do it. I''ll make some samples next day and let you choose?"


    Wu Zhen became excited. The project was jointly cooperated by the Wu family and the royal family. Naturally, the construction was handed over to the royal construction team, and the design drawings were made by Kou Anli. Recently, he had a lot of contact with Kou Anli. He not only learned a lot of new house building methods, but also learned the importance of building materials. The original glutinous rice paste mud has been completely replaced by bricks and tiles. Due to the limitations of production, the bricks and tiles have not been popularized to ordinary people''s homes, but there has been a trend of large-scale transformation in noble and rich families. However, it is difficult to find better materials for the fine silk pasted on the window. It should not only keep out the wind, but also transmit light. If you can use colored glass... Or colored glass... It''s beautiful! New things are in the ascendant. The empress will introduce a new building material to the world!


    He couldn''t hide his excitement and asked the empress to leave, "please allow the grass people and young master Yu to step down first. Mr. Kou is receiving grass people''s information at home today. I wonder if you can invite young master Yu to go together and discuss big plans?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled and nodded, "it''s so natural and good. However, you can also discuss with Mr. an to see if you can open a window on the roof and lay a floor tile on the floor... "She just leads a line to build a bridge. At most, she gives tips. Naturally, they will discuss the details themselves.


    Wu Zhen was excited again. Yes, if it is thick and hard enough, it is not impossible for skylight floor tiles. How luxurious is the villa? As for the price, even if it''s a sky high price, someone will buy it? Others don''t know, will he not understand that among the noble and rich families in Kyoto, which family is not richer than each other?


    They saluted and said goodbye to the empress. They were humble to each other. Then they went out of Ning''an palace one after another and went straight to the Kou family. At that time, although Yu Meng had personally experienced the earth shaking changes brought to his fate by the Queen''s sister, he did not expect that there would be more earth shaking changes waiting for him

 Chapter 263

    Kou Niang did come on the third day.


    On this day, Fengxin sent someone to send in the stack of prescriptions.


    Zhuo Xi looked through them one by one and found that detailed annotations had been made on each prescription. She was elated. She had read these prescriptions roughly, and there was basically no big problem. With Fengxin check, it''s even safer. She screened out two or three of the least modified annotations of Fengxin according to the type of illness, and then approved the scarlet letter before giving it to Ji ruomin. She asked her to hand it to Zi Ran later, and asked him to arrange to inform the pharmacy of the hospital that the reagent can be prepared first for clinical trial.


    Zhuo Xi happily discussed the approval silver with Ji ruomin, "you order a little, a list of ten Liang silver, how much can you have?"


    Ji ruomin teased her, "I haven''t seen you use this way to master the world. You have to deduct ten liang of silver."


    Zhuo Xi nodded her forehead. "Count quickly. Don''t underestimate this stack of prescriptions. It''s estimated that it''s enough to support dozens of yours."


    Ji ruomin put away his joking look, counted carefully, and then stayed for a while. "Unexpectedly, there are 136?" Well, that''s more than 1300 liang of silver? Isn''t that, isn''t it... My monthly salary is only 50 Liang silver


    Zhuo Xi looked at her angrily, laughed and said boldly, "you can inform the medicine shop of the hospital to approve a batch of prescriptions on the 15th of each month and let them actively provide them¡°


    According to this calculation, more than 1000 liang of silver can be recorded every month? It''s not so fast to rob money


    Ji ruomin opens her mouth


    At this time, chunzao reported outside that empress Kou came.


    With Kou Niang coming in at the same time, there are more than a dozen boxes of heavy objects.


    Zhuo Xi thought of the scene when she distributed bonuses and dividends in the Marquis of Guang''an the year before last, and her eyes lit up immediately.


    Sure enough, after saluting and greeting, Kou Niang pointed to the boxes of weights and said, "these are the income of the Queen''s industry in Liangzhou this year, a total of 19600 taels of gold. It was more than 190000 liang of silver. The emperor''s fuel convoy was entrusted to escort them to Beijing. Otherwise, the people''s women don''t know how to transport the money back! The civilian women ran all over the Silver Tower in Liangzhou and only changed 30% of the gold. The other 70% changed into gold when they returned to Kyoto. It took a few days to send them to the palace, so they were not so conspicuous. "


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes glittered and hurriedly asked her to open the boxes one by one and praised "good!"


    Although she had seen the precious gold and silver sent by Jing Hua and other two countries before, the neat yellow gold ingots were all her private property. Why didn''t she feel happy?


    She restrained her desire to rush to the box to touch and hug, waved her hand to call the Spring Festival Gala, and asked her to spread all the gold under her bed tonight. She wanted to try to sleep on the gold


    Everyone present did not understand why the queen spread the gold under the bed and thought that there was a treasure room under her bed


    Kou Niang then respectfully handed over an account book about one finger wide and thick.


    Zhuo Xi motioned Ji ruomin to take it over. She wondered why the account book was so thin?


    But I heard Mrs. Kou say, "my mother, this is the list of industries under your name. Every shop and every Grange has a separate account book, all in this camphor box. "


    Then he opened a big box at the end.


    Zhuo Xi was startled, opened the account book in her hand, and sure enough, she made a list in a simple and frightening way. Each line is an industry and an account book


    Ji ruomin was even more stunned. He stretched out his head and looked at the camphor box that had just been opened. He immediately retracted his head and pretended to record.


    Zhuo Xi returned to her senses and laughed and scolded, "Comrade Xiaoji, this is your mistake. When you meet work, you should meet difficulties. How can you escape? "


    Ji ruomin hardened his head with a guilty conscience and said, "no, I''m just an officer. I''m not good at arithmetic and accounting... Isn''t this afraid of missing my mother''s event?"


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "you? Not good at arithmetic and bookkeeping? It is said that Wu Neng, the daughter of Sima Ji''s parents in the former Po Prefecture, immediately met the enemy. Wen Neng was in charge of 36 industries of Ji''s family. There was no difficulty in accounting actuarial work. How dare you say that you are not good at arithmetic and bookkeeping? "


    Ji ruomin laughed awkwardly and said helplessly, "but at her mother''s command..." she knew that fighting with her mother would only lead to a complete defeat, and it was right to admit her mistake as soon as possible... While she was crying in her heart, she whispered, Zi Ran, it will be all night for several months... It was not easy to hand over all the affairs of the health government office to he Qian a few days ago, Now we have to start the reconciliation of such a huge project... I don''t know when the instrument process of the wedding can start preparing


    Kou Niang was relieved and said with a smile, "it turns out that adult Ji is the daughter of parent Ji. It''s safe to hand over the accounts of civilian women to adults."


    Ji ruomin had an idea and said with a smile, "aunt Kou hasn''t seen me before? In fact, I was the dark guard of the empress in the Marquis house of Guang''an. I have seen aunt Kou several times. When we get married next year, we should invite some old friends to our house for two drinks. At that time, I hope aunt Kou will not dislike the shallow wine. "


    Kou Niang was secretly surprised and replied happily, "that''s nature, that''s nature. The girl is very happy. How can a civilian woman say no? " I couldn''t help but wipe a sweat in my heart. What a shrewd businessman she is, why can''t she hear Ji ruomin''s evasive words? Lord Ji, even the empress''s errand dares to extrapolate... This is the empress''s private property... Let you check, that is to treat you as your own person!


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it''s our Lord Ji who can''t stand going out of the cabinet! Well, the palace then asked Gongsun Li to recommend some talents specializing in actuarial accounts to help you check your accounts! Now you have time to prepare for the wedding? " Gongsun Li, from time to time, asked her to come up with some problems, such as the standards of measurement and the reform of coins... I can''t give these forces in vain, can I? How many people should he borrow to make him dare not promise?


    Ji ruomin had no embarrassed look on his face, but said bluntly, "empress, you don''t have back pain when you stand and talk. I''m twenty to three years old this year. If I don''t get married again, I''m afraid the golden turtle son-in-law will fly... Where will you compensate me for a bridegroom? "


    Eh? Kou Niang became more and more confused. Why did she say this more and more boundless?


    But Zhuo Xi smiled more happily, "ha ha, are you sure you want the palace to compensate you for a bridegroom? If we dare to compensate, I''m afraid you dare not ask for it... "


    A man''s voice sounded behind him, "what? To whom do you want to compensate me? "


    Ji ruomin had a rosy face. When he heard the speech, his face turned white, knelt down and kowtowed, "blessed emperor. It''s the lower officer who said something wrong. Please forgive the emperor and empress. " I''m used to joking with the queen on weekdays. In the future, it''s better to play less dangerous jokes


    Kou Niang was also frightened and kowtowed to make amends.


    Jing Yuan waved lazily.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "you go down first. Kou Niang, go to the palace another day and have a chat with the palace. "


    The two of them responded and withdrew.


    Zhuo Xi got up and greeted him with a smile, "why did you come back so early today?"


    Jing Yuan glanced at the three rows of yellow gold. Without speaking, he just took her hand around the screen and walked to the bedroom hall. He liked her asking him this, as if this was the place where he was tired and wanted to come back to rest. He was filled with soft joy. "Today, it has been agreed that the seal of December 25 will be sealed, and everything will be suspended. Just wait for the frontier generals to return to Beijing to report on their work. These days can be relaxed and relaxed. You can also accompany you and Xiao yu''er. "


    When they stepped into the bedroom hall, they saw Xiao yu''er struggling to stand up accompanied by Wu''s mother, fell and sat on the ground, climbed two steps and wanted to stand up again.


    Mother Wu hurried over to salute, "the earth dragons here are warm. The old slave was afraid that the big prince would fall down easily when he practiced on the Kang, so he brought him here."


    Jing Yuan smiled and said, "it doesn''t hurt." Then he strode forward, picked up his son who was struggling to climb towards him, and kissed him on his pink face. Unexpectedly, Xiao yu''er didn''t turn his face to dodge.


    Zhuo Xi rushed up and robbed him. "You are all saliva incense burning in the purple Chen hall. Xiao Yu''s son doesn''t like it. Don''t go to wash and hug him when you come?"


    Jing Yuan covered his sleeve and heard, "do you have any? Does ambergris smell bad? " Thinking of the dozens of boxes of gold just seen in the main hall, he said sour, "that''s better than your room full of copper smell?"


    Zhuo Xi glanced at him lightly, "I''ll sleep on that layer of gold at night! Have you ever slept with gold? You haven''t slept with gold. You know it stinks of copper? If you don''t like the smell of copper, find a place for yourself. "


    Jing Yuan quickly shook his head, "how could that happen? These gold are related to the well-being of our Daliang people! Who dares to dislike? If you want to dislike it, only this little one will dislike it. You''d better send him to mother Wu to have a rest. "


    Zhuo Xi was not fooled. "Don''t change the topic. This gold is my private property. Who says it''s cool? If anyone moves it, I''ll be in a hurry. "


    "Your food and clothing expenses are from the Shaofu. Why do you need so much money?"


    "Save your son''s wife book!"


    "That''s a man''s business¡°


    ¡­¡­


    Mother Wu watched the two quarrel as if there were no one else, endured the smile in the center, took a look at the new work of painter Wang Tingyu hanging on the wall, and withdrew.


    In those days, imperial concubine Xianru sighed with her more than once. If yuan''er had been born in an ordinary family, it would be a bad life for ordinary people to get married in the future, which is hundreds of times better than living in intrigues and tricks all day... Now, can it be regarded as true? The new work of Wang Tingyu painted the happy picture of the three members of their family. The emperor was sitting in danger, and the queen smiled. Only the eldest prince, although his eyes were open, was sleeping


    They washed separately and walked to Ci''an palace with xiaoyu''er in their arms.


    Jing Yuan held Xiao yu''er in one hand and let him play with his hair hanging on the side of his neck, holding Zhuo Xi in the other hand. The satisfaction in his heart swept his whole body in an instant. He couldn''t help thinking, if the father, the queen and the concubine knew that they had made the life of the king of a country like an ordinary husband and wife, would they think? Alas, it''s all because there is only one son... If you can have more


    "Today, Wang Tingyu painted his mother in Ci''an palace. It''s still early. Maybe he hasn''t left the palace yet. Why don''t we go and get a family picture? " Zhuo Xi suddenly thought of it and suggested.


    He was moved. The Empress Dowager was very moved after Wang Tingyu painted for the three of their family last time. She wanted to be with them very much. She didn''t want to be so coincidental today.


    "That''s nice." He rubbed his face against Xiao yu''er''s small cheek, which made him Yiyi laugh, "I''m afraid this little bit can''t sit still and wants to move around." Portraits are not so easy. They often sit still for three or two hours.


    Earlier, Zhuo Xi clearly shouted to draw two more pictures. Unexpectedly, after drawing one, he had a sore back and neck. He didn''t want to be painted any more. And last time it was because Xiao yu''er moved around and delayed a lot of time. It was not easy to coax him to sleep, so he was painted quietly.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly walked in front of him, looked up and down at his father and son, looked at himself, thought and said, "just draw a life picture at will. Don''t be too serious. When we arrive at Ci''an palace, we also invite the empress mother to change a set of household clothes. This is the real life. " In this way, the painter didn''t pay so much attention and painted faster. Xiao yu''er may not be so noisy.

 Chapter 264

    "That''s a good idea." Jing Yuan was overjoyed. In fact, he has always wanted to hang the portrait in the middle of the bedroom at the head of the bed so that he can have a look at it at the critical time... In this way, he can... Well, no, no, when can Wang Tingyu draw a picture alone, only for him and Xi''er


    Zhuo Xi doesn''t know what people around her think at all. She''s just immersed in her own thoughts. Do you want to design a Western-style wedding dress someday? Wear it so that the painter can leave a few images and have a wedding photo... Is it too tired to be painted? Why should Mao sit for two hours without moving? How did that photography come into being? Er... It seems to be a small hole imaging... And then there should be a negative... What is the negative?


    She stroked her forehead with a headache. All she could do was digital photos, but it was obvious that there were still decades to go from photo paper to digital... Forget it, she was neither a great inventor nor Einstein. Why did Mao think about inventing this and that all day?


    When she arrived at Ci''an palace, Wang Tingyu just finished the formal portrait of the Empress Dowager. She was about to pack up her painting tools and step back.


    The Empress Dowager saw that the three people came hand in hand. As soon as her eyes lit up, she had the same idea as them. Without waiting for them to say, she hurriedly shouted, "emperor, empress, you''re just in time. Why don''t you come and sit with AI family for a while and let painter Wang draw another picture for us?"


    The two men and Xiao yu''er gave the Empress Dowager a gift together, and Wang Tingyu also gave them a gift.


    Zhuo Xi stepped forward, pulled up the empress dowager, looked up and down, smiled and said, "empress dowager, you are too solemn. You see, the three of us are simple household clothes. Either you go and change into the same light household clothes, or we''ll make a special appointment in a few days to dress up and invite painter Wang to draw a picture for us. What do you think? "


    Mother Su hurriedly brought tea to the Empress Dowager. "Empress dowager, drink tea to moisten your throat first."


    The Empress Dowager took a sip and asked, "what do you think, mother Su?"


    "According to the old slave, the empress''s two ideas are very appropriate. If you change your home clothes, it will be the appearance of a family''s daily life. If they all wear formal clothes in a few days, they will look solemn and solemn. It depends on which one you like. "


    The Empress Dowager looked at Zhuo Xi and said in unison, "both."


    Several people laughed.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "then please ask mother Su to serve the Empress Dowager and change her clothes. Master Wang must be tired too. He can have a rest. It''s still early today. I''m not in a hurry to eat. I''m afraid my mother will be hungry after a long time. If mammy Su has any snacks, she can use some for her mother first. "


    The Empress Dowager listened very appropriately, "the queen thought very well. AI''s family is not hungry, but I''m afraid it will spoil our little yu''er. Heng''er, go and ask mother Wu, but bring some snacks that Xiao yu''er can eat. "


    Heng''er answered.


    After serving the empress dowager, mother Su went to the bedroom to change her clothes.


    Jing Yuan said a few words with Wang Tingyu and went to Zhuo Xi and Xiao yu''er.


    Wang Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief. After preparing the painting tools and pigments to be used for a while, he also went to the side hall to change clothes and rest under the leadership of the eunuch.


    About half an hour later, heng''er had brought the pigeon soup stewed egg from the small stove of Ci''an palace with mother Wu, fed it to Xiao yu''er, and then saw the Empress Dowager turn out from behind the screen. The Empress Dowager was wearing a dark purple light phoenix pattern deep clothes, with a slightly lighter purple jade inlaid belt at her waist, but her face was full of an unhappy look. She asked, "Xi''er, do you think the plainclothes of the mourning family are good?"


    Zhuo Xi saw that mammy Su was sweating and dared not speak. She understood something in her heart. She stood up and looked at it carefully before touching her hand and laughing, "excellent, excellent. Purple is elegant and has an extraordinary temperament. The mother wears this dark purple, which can not only match the whiteness of her skin color, but also show her youth, but also respond to our little yu''er''s clothes. This can be regarded as a grandson''s costume. "


    The painting made the Empress Dowager''s face slightly Ji, but she still complained, "I was going to wear the light gray five blessing pattern deep clothes, but mother Su insisted on wearing this dark purple. It seems that AI Jia is old. He doesn''t even understand what color he wears to look young. "


    Zhuo Xi came forward and helped her to sit down. "Mammy Su must have considered that this is the dress to be painted on the portrait. Naturally, it should be bright and conspicuous, so that the painter can paint well. If it''s light gray, how does the painter draw it? Is it difficult to draw a white picture? Xi''er has seen the gray and white deep clothes. They look good. But if you really wear them, Wang Tingyu will have to bear a face and dare not write? "


    The Empress Dowager smiled, "your mouth can speak. If mammy Su had told the mourners so early, wouldn''t the mourners be happy to accept it? "


    Mother Su smiled bitterly and apologized, "but I don''t know if I have such attention. It''s just a mistake. I just think this dress is better than that one..."


    "Well, well, since you all think this one is good, that''s it. Hurry up and invite painter Wang. Let''s start. "


    Mother Su answered.


    The Empress Dowager discussed with her excitedly, "what did you just say about grandson clothes? What''s the point? Just the same color? "


    As like as two peas couples dress up, they wear a couple''s clothes, and wear them on their grandchildren and grandchildren. They call them grandparents and grandchildren, and wear them on mother and son, and so on.


    Jing Yuan also came over with a sleepy little Yu son who was full of food, "what if he wore it on a family?"


    "That''s family clothes..."


    The Empress Dowager was more happy and told heng''er, "let the Shangyi bureau come tomorrow. The mourning family should make several sets of family clothes and grandparents'' clothes..."


    Heng''er answered happily. The Empress Dowager''s happiness is their good day.


    Soon Wang Tingyu came.


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi sit around the empress dowager, holding Xiao yu''er in Jing Yuan''s arms.


    Wang Tingyu saw that the four members of the family were all round and beautiful, and they were very expensive. Even if they changed their regular clothes, they were also the demeanor of the Dragon son, Phoenix and Sun Jun in the world. She couldn''t help but shake her spirit and wrote quickly.


    Xiao yu''er sat in his father''s warm arms and slowly closed his eyes. Strangely, he didn''t make trouble.


    Wang Tingyu is also a shrewd man. He quickly outlines a prototype and carefully draws the part of the big prince.


    When a column of incense time passed, when everyone relaxed, suddenly a loud cry sounded.


    Mother Wu hurried over and held the eldest prince. Sure enough, she found that a piece of clothes sitting with the emperor holding him was wet


    Zhuo Xi stole a glance and wanted to laugh, but she didn''t dare to move. Suddenly remembered something and said softly, "Master Wang, my eyebrows and eyes are light. Don''t draw too much." The previous one was a little thick.


    The painter only responds.


    The three remained in the same position and did not move.


    Wu''s mother took the prince in her arms and took him to play, so as not to disturb the painter''s painting.


    Soon, in less than two hours, Wang Tingyu waved it.


    The three stood up shaking their sour necks and went to see the good painting.


    Zhuo Xi flew into a rage at the sight.


    Jing Yuan smiled at the sight.


    The Empress Dowager smiled and praised Wang Tingyu. Knowing that he loved wine, she gave him a golden jade wine pot with Chimonanthus Lanzhi.


    Wang Tingyu packed up his painting tools with gratitude and Shi ran left.


    The Empress Dowager told mammy Su, "put this painting away first, mount it after it is dry, and hang it in the middle of the main hall."


    Mother Su should be here.


    Zhuo Xi stood in front of the canvas, "empress mother, you are not afraid of this picture hanging out. Someone suspects you have married the wrong daughter-in-law?"


    The Empress Dowager asked in surprise, "no? What''s the matter? "


    Zhuo Xi shot her eyes at Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan smiled like a fox, "no, I will never doubt that I married the wrong daughter-in-law."


    The Empress Dowager didn''t understand. She took two steps and looked carefully at the four people in the painting. The man was handsome and handsome, Zhilan Yushu, the woman''s eyebrows were affectionate, beautiful and dignified, she was graceful, and her grandson was simple, brave and lovely. She asked suspiciously, "Xi''er, what''s wrong with this painting?"


    Zhuo Xi helped her forehead, blocked her eyes with her hand, and said gnashing her teeth, "no, yes, ask, question." Are you?


    The Empress Dowager asked mammy Su, "is it beautiful?"


    "Beauty!"


    "Jun?"


    "Jun!"


    "Does it look good?"


    "Good looking!"


    "Very good!" The Empress Dowager waved her big hand and smiled, "put it away!"


    Jing Yuan also smiled and pinched the stiff muscles on Zhuo Xi''s neck twice and said, "set a meal."


    Mother Su and heng''er answered.


    Xiao yu''er saw that the three adults stood up and wanted to climb over. Mother Wu quickly picked him up from the Kang.


    The Empress Dowager was in a very happy mood. The ordinary life of such a happy family was something she dared not think of before. She took xiaoyu''er over and weighed it, "Yo, xiaoyu''er has gained a lot of weight recently! You''ve been so good lately. Do you eat well? " She asked Xiao yu''er who couldn''t speak with a smile.


    Xiao yu''er waved his hands indiscriminately and giggled. The Empress Dowager happily pasted her face on it.


    Several people quickly used the meal. Xiao yu''er was also tired and just left.


    Back to Ning''an palace, Zhuo Xi asked Wu''s mother to take Xiao yu''er to sleep in the small bedroom Hall of the Grand Prince first. I went to change and wash angrily.


    Then it''s not yourself, okay? When did you become a double eyelid? When did it become a melon face? Where on earth did that Fox come from? A pair of Danfeng eyes and two long eyebrows into the temples are the affectionate feelings of red fruit... I have seen flattering and flattering horses, but I have never seen such a distorted truth! She was so depressed that she wanted to roar out, but seeing the Empress Dowager''s satisfied look, she couldn''t bear to spoil her good interest.


    She was so angry that she didn''t realize that Jing Yuan came in quietly.


    When she took off her clothes and stepped into the bath, a figure plopped into the wide bath faster than her.


    She was startled. When she looked at it, she knew it was Jingyuan.

 Chapter 265

    She was more angry and punched him with a pink fist. "You say, who is the woman in the picture?"


    Jing Yuan enjoyed her beating comfortably and said slowly, "isn''t that you? Who else? "


    "Me? Why don''t I know I have double eyelids, red phoenix eyes and melon seed face? I also specially reminded him that my eyebrows and eyes are light. Look what he painted? Not only the thick eyebrows, but also the long eyebrows on the temples, and what kind of seductive eyes... Am I that fox like? " Jing Yuan looked cold and was surprised that he had also made a mistake, "yes! No, I can only see this picture. No one else can see it. No, no, I''ll have it replaced tomorrow. "


    Zhuo Xi was so happy that she turned around and hugged him, "really? Can you really have the painting changed back quietly? "


    Jing Yuan picked up the soap horn by the pool and smeared it on her. She said "yes" and thought that the painting must be hung on the head of the bed after it was brought, so that she could look at herself all the time


    God knows how much he wanted to reward Wang Tingyu with two boxes of gold at the first sight of this painting... Because the Empress Dowager was on the side, Wang Tingyu came to paint at the Empress Dowager''s order, so he couldn''t go beyond it. Who dares to accept the affectionate eyes except himself?


    As long as he thought of her eyes in the picture, he was a little out of control


    Like now


    Zhuo Xi consciously relieved her great trouble and relaxed her mind


    The next day, when Zhuo Xi returned to the bedroom, she was startled by the family photo at the head of the bed.


    She was furious and shouted, "who hung it here?"


    The Spring Festival Gala came over and said, "yes, the emperor ordered people to hang it."


    Zhuo Xi said, "call wordless and let him take down the painting."


    "Yes." The Spring Festival Gala should go here.


    However, Zhuo Xi didn''t wait to be speechless, but waited for Jing Yuan, who had just finished washing.


    Zhuo Xi sighed, took the dry cloth and let Jing Yuan lean on the Kang. He slowly wiped his wet hair with the cloth.


    "The picture came back for me?"


    "Yes. Have you seen it on the wall? " Jing Yuan is like a child who takes credit.


    Zhuo Xi frowned, "Why are you hanging on it? Don''t you know I don''t like this picture? "


    "But I like it." Jing Yuan blinked.


    "Do you like the fox above?"


    "Is that a fox? Isn''t that you? "


    "Where did you see it was me?" Zhuo Xi''s anger came up again. Modernist art photos didn''t beautify a person like that. The beauty that blinded people''s eyes was like hitting her face. It seemed to say that if she was not as charming and moving as the picture, she would not be worthy of his abundant God and handsome.


    Jing Yuan grabbed her hand and gently put it on her lips, "but in my opinion, everywhere is like you. Especially the eyes at a certain moment... "


    Her voice softened, "it''s not me, I''m not so beautiful..."


    He held her face and gently tossed it on her lips, "you are beautiful. Only I can see your beauty... Although your face is not a melon seed face, it looks like a melon seed face from an angle... And the long eyebrows and double eyelids that go into the temples are just the usual painting method of court painters..."


    His soft voice effectively calmed her, and she responded to him gently and vaguely, "which angle...?" Can see the face as sharp, only from the bottom to the top, how did Wang Tingyu do it? How dare he?


    Jing Yuan leaned over and kissed her again, "just like now... You open your eyes and look at me..."


    Zhuo Xi seemed to be hypnotized. She opened her eyes in confusion and felt... She saw his black eyes shining like a bright lamp in the dark curtain, like the bright moon quietly rising on the far-off deep-sea shore. The bright moonlight soothed her anxiety as cold as water


    The next day, Zhuo Xi seldom slept in. When I woke up, I looked up and saw the picture right above the head of the bed.


    Somehow I''m not so angry anymore.


    She remembered what he said when she was confused last night, such as "eyes at a certain moment" and "a certain angle"... She thought again and again. Last night''s whisper rang through her ears, "it''s now... Open your eyes..."


    She immediately sat up and felt all the blood gushing into her face


    As soon as the light at the door of the bedroom hall was bright, someone lifted the curtain. The next moment someone strode in.


    Still Jingyuan, still wet.


    He took a civilian suit and put it on. As soon as he turned around, he saw Zhuo Xi sitting on the bed and said with a smile, "wake up? I''ve been running twice and sweating all over... We''ll go to the ancient wind garden in Xishan while we''re free today. "


    How could Zhuo Xi let him turn around again this time, lift the curtain and look directly at him.


    Until he looked at him, he slowly walked to the bedside and sat down, looked directly at her, and asked in a warm voice, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhuo Xi clenched her teeth and asked, "is it you?"


    "What?" His face was blank.


    Zhuo Xi said, "you inspired Wang Tingyu''s painting, didn''t you? If it weren''t for you, how dare you draw me like that ghost? "


    A strand of Jing Yuan''s long wet hair fell down due to lowering her head, and the water dropped on the back of her hand, but she pulled her hand away as if she had been burned.


    He looked at her steadily and asked with a smile, "are you angry about this?"


    "Shouldn''t I be angry?" She asked. If you are not angry, you will feel humiliated


    "Why? That''s what I saw in my eyes and engraved in my heart when you were the most beautiful... Why do you think it''s both Fox and ghost? " There was a trace of injury in his tone.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. She didn''t expect such an answer. She thought of a certain moment and an angle he said before. Naturally, she knew it was that moment and that angle. She thought he expected that she could submit to him like water... She thought the picture was what he expected... Was she all wrong? It was not his expectation, but what he saw at that moment and from that angle What''s engraved in your heart?


    Jing Yuan bent over again. His wet hair fell on the brocade quilt and immediately fainted. There were still some injured eyes and some injured tone: "you don''t know. When I described your beauty to Wang Tingyu in detail, I, I, I want to drill into the crack in the ground... But I still want to have the beauty of that moment in front of me..."


    ¡­¡­


    When they were having breakfast, Jing Yuan remembered something and told her with a smile, "by the way, Uncle Wu reported to me yesterday that his wife Qing was pregnant and wanted to give you a thank-you note."


    Zhuo Xi was happy. "Isn''t there a Mrs. zhengsanpin Gao in his family?" Although this lady is given by the palace, she is a concubine after all. Where is she qualified to enter the palace, Shane? Under normal circumstances, it should be a serious Mrs. Gao''s order to enter the palace, Shane. Liu obviously didn''t want to take this trip, so he asked Wu Zhilian to give thanks.


    In fact, this is Liu''s great opportunity. She should go to the palace to thank her kindness, take the opportunity to show that she has no resentment, and take the opportunity to show her kindness to her mother to complain bitterly and wrongly. After all, she is a serious lady. If the side lady has any special behavior of neglecting her dignity and inferiority, she just asks the queen to decide. The queen and the two wives don''t know each other. Where will they be biased? And when you enter the palace and report your joy, it is tantamount to recognizing the child. When a child is born, she is the real mother. This means that he has followed the Ming Road and showed his determination not to use any shady means. After reporting the joy, if anything happens to the child in Mrs. Qing''s belly in the future, she also has a grand reason to get away. On the contrary, it is so hidden that people can''t help but have a lot of negative speculation. If someone enters the palace to report the good news and uses some shady means at the same time, resulting in painful consequences, if the evidence is found, it is the crime of bullying the king.


    Unfortunately, Liu has been blinded by jealousy


    Zhuo Xi was more happy. Eager to understand the house fight drama of the Wu family, she thought and said, "calculated, my sister-in-law is eight months pregnant, which is the month when she needs to move more when she stabilizes. Why don''t we invite her to visit the ancient garden? "


    Jing Yuan blackened his face, but he had to agree. Zhuo Xi wants to accompany his sister-in-law, so he becomes a foreign man and naturally wants to avoid it. Then I had to ask the Empress Dowager to go with me, and he did his filial duty.


    With their breakfast, they ordered the people to prepare their cars and horses, and the party went out of the palace on wheels.


    The Wu family is closer to the west mountain, so although Peng''s sister-in-law got a letter to go out temporarily, she arrived a little earlier than them.


    Jing Yuan and Zhuo Xi helped the Empress Dowager down from the carriage. Peng saluted them from a distance. Zhuo Xi hurriedly shouted "exemption", and then asked the people to serve the empress dowager, the emperor and the Grand Prince to go to the ancient wind garden first. She came with the Spring Festival Gala and helped the paunchy Peng to get up.


    Peng bowed back in flattery. "Your mother is polite, and people''s women dare not overstep."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t force it. She motioned for the Spring Festival Gala to help her, and a Peng''s close little maid followed. The four people fell far behind, slowly appreciating the plum blossoms in winter, and slowly talking home.


    "Is your sister-in-law healthy? How''s your appetite? "


    Peng said, "thank you for your concern. Civilian women have a good appetite and eat five meals a day. The child is too noisy. When he gets up in the morning, his hands and feet are edema. Dr. Hong told me to walk more every day. I was worried that the Wu family''s yard was too small to move. I didn''t want you to send me a letter. It has long been said that this ancient wind garden has beautiful scenery, and people''s women have never been able to see it. Now when I look at it, it''s really suitable for enjoying the landscape snow and talking about the world. "

 Chapter 266

    Peng Shi is really a smart man. She knows that she wants to satisfy her gossip heart.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and went straight to the theme without detours. "I heard that Mrs. Qing is pregnant?"


    Peng minced his mouth and smiled, "speaking, the people''s women want to thank their mother for her help. If it weren''t for my mother, my mother-in-law would have to rub me. "


    She then told the story of what happened after the two beauties arrived at Wu''s house.


    After that night, the Wu family knew that the two ladies given by the palace not only got the blue eyes of the one in the palace, but also were deeply loved by Lord Wu. None of the servants and servants dared to neglect. In addition, the two ladies had good means and generous hands. They rewarded the servants without mercy, and soon won the loyalty of the servants in Ruifeng garden. Ruifeng garden was strictly guarded. Liu didn''t even send a bowl of Xizi soup successfully.


    Liu had to make them calm in the morning and dusk every day, go to the main house and follow the neutral rules. The two side ladies let him rub and grind without complaint. Then Liu arranged the bedtime schedule for them, but did not ask about their childhood. Lord Wu went to Mrs. Qing''s house several times, but found that she was not healthy, so he had to change his way to Mrs. Shan''s. Several times the same happened to Mrs. Shan. After a few months, Lord Wu became impatient and simply ignored the bedtime schedule. Later, Liu repeatedly asked people to make trouble when Lord Wu rested in Ruifeng garden. He either loved his head here or suffered unbearable pain there. I can''t find out any disease after I call a doctor. After coming down several times, Lord Wu was impatient. He simply closed the door and told the servant girls not to disturb anyone.


    These two things were like two loud slaps on Liu''s face. Liu was so angry that he could only pick some bones from the eggs when he woke up in the morning and dusk and punish them for being stingy. Unexpectedly, the two side ladies just clenched their teeth and endured without saying a word. Once, Lord Wu went to Mrs. Shan. When he arrived, he found that Mrs. Shan was inconvenient, so he went back to the main house. It happened that Mrs. Qing was washing Liu''s feet. After washing for a while, Liu kicked over the footbasin, said that the water was too hot, and ordered the women to hold her down and put needles in her body. Lord Wu witnessed this scene and angrily took Mrs. Qing back to Ruifeng garden. When the women in the garden saw that Lord Wu was angry, they trembled and told Lord Wu that the two ladies had been honed by Liu these days. Liu''s means are invisible hidden injuries such as needle pricking and choking water. Lord Wu was so angry that he ordered her to think about it and asked, "sister-in-law, do you want to get the management right of the middle feed of the Wu family?"


    The Wu family may be a little more peaceful if they are run by someone else


    Liu''s feelings are really not what she wants to take care of. She''s just afraid that after her sister-in-law''s baby is born, her food and clothing will be controlled by others, and it''s inevitable that the child will suffer


    Peng understood the truth and thanked her gratefully, but shook his head. "My husband wrote to me earlier and told me that after spring, he was going to leave the house alone... After all, he was the eldest son of a concubine, and it was normal for him to leave the house alone... Although there was no legitimate son in the house for the time being, his father was still in his prime, and I''m afraid there would be a different situation in a few years. It''s better to leave the title to others... "


    Zhuo Xi said silently, "that''s good."


    However, the Wu family is their own outsider in name. If something really goes wrong with the Wu family, they won''t look good on their face. We still have to find a way to let the Wu family have a legitimate son... If Liu can''t conceive, we can adopt one in the house... Otherwise, do we have to change another legitimate mother? Although Liu was confused, he was not a villain... Thinking so, Zhuo Xi whispered a word to Peng.


    Peng Shi was surprised, and then blessed the body, "thanks for the empress''s guidance."


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    The next day, Peng went to ask his mother-in-law for instructions: "... Dr. Hong recommended by the Queen''s mother to her daughter-in-law... Her daughter-in-law has been taking his pulse... Tomorrow is the day to make an appointment with Dr. Hong for review. My husband is coming back soon. Mother-in-law, I wonder if you can go with your daughter-in-law tomorrow? "


    Liu was a little surprised. In the past few months, she patronized the fight with the two seductive children and ignored the pregnant daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law has been pretending to be deaf and dumb. Why did she specially invite herself to accompany her for prenatal examination today? She thought that yesterday she was invited by the queen to go out to relax. Could it be that the queen wanted to use her hand to put pressure on herself? This little hoof is to blame. I just went to the empress a few days late to report the good news, so I went to the palace to discuss my ideas. As a result, the fire burned up somehow. Two fox fawns came and turned the master''s heart to the Ruifeng garden... If this goes on, where is there any hope for his legitimate son?


    Peng sighed and knew that his mother-in-law didn''t understand what he meant, so he had to be short first, pointed out his words and said, "mother-in-law, my husband will go back to his house in two days. If you ask your mother-in-law about your daughter-in-law''s pregnant image, what would you say, mother-in-law? Yesterday, the empress was concerned about the situation of the Wu family. After asking a few questions, she asked me to invite you to go to doctor Hong with me. It''s said that Dr. Hong is a golden master. The two eldest princesses were pregnant again after his hands... "It''s so clear that my mother-in-law should understand?


    Liu''s heart is mixed, and he doesn''t know how to describe it. It''s not good to have a good relationship with your daughter-in-law, but it''s not dirty; Similarly, his relationship with the noble six women is more subtle. I don''t know where he offended the great God and caused a fire to burn himself, but he can''t put his body down and ask her to understand. Now the one in the palace suggested that she go to see Dr. Hong. Does she want to have a legitimate son to settle the house? Is it true that my daughter-in-law is really soft to herself?


    Seeing that his mother-in-law was speechless, Peng simply pointed out his words more clearly and said, "mother-in-law, to tell you the truth, my husband wrote a letter earlier and said that he was going to see the house after spring. After watching it, he was ready to go out alone..."


    Liu replied conditionally, "how can that work? You''re still pregnant... "


    Peng smiled and said, "my mother is ready. She said that she should move things to the house and get ready as soon as she likes the house, and then connect with my mother to take care of it..."


    Let the new daughter-in-law give birth to confinement in the new house. How does it look like separation due to contradictions? Will it damage the master''s reputation? Liu came up with the idea with a rare clarity and immediately rejected it, "No. You have to listen to me about it. Xinger can make great achievements. The future will be good. I won''t stop you from living alone. But at least wait until the child is one year old. Things at home are used to, and moving to a new house will inevitably have difficulties. It''s easy to go wrong, not to mention being in a hurry during production. Even the first year after the child was born is also full of diseases and disasters. What if there is no old man at home? Anyway, it''s also my eldest grandson. I also want to take care of it... "


    Peng''s eyes were moist. He restrained himself and didn''t promise. He only choked and said, "I have to discuss this after my husband comes back... Tomorrow..."


    Liu coughed and made up his mind, "go! I''ll go with you! "


    The daughter-in-law will hide her face like this. She should cheer up and plan for the future


    The next day, they went to the healthy mother and baby hall with a happy face.


    After diagnosing Peng''s pulse, Dr. Hong smiled and said that everything was good, and gave two more orders. Peng got up, but he didn''t leave immediately. Instead, he sat at the door. Liu closed his eyes, ignored the loss of his old face, sat at Dr. Hong''s desk and stretched out his wrist.


    Doctor Hong was surprised for a moment and knew in his heart that he had long heard that the Queen''s mother had no legitimate son. He carefully took Liu''s pulse, asked some questions about daily life, diet and health, wrote a prescription and said to take it for seven days before coming over.


    When Liu came out, he was sweating, but at the same time, a glimmer of hope rose in his heart. I''m only 36 years old. Maybe it''s not too late to get pregnant and have children. Didn''t Dr. Hong say? And women over 40 are pregnant.


    Peng smiled at her mother-in-law, reached out and took the package of medicine in her hand, and then walked out of the mother and baby hall with her. Mother Liu was relieved until she got on the carriage.

 Chapter 267

    Zhuo Xi walked out of the meeting room with a smile, but she heard that Wuhe was bowing to Ji ruomin, who was also outside: "please, Lord Ji..."


    Ji ruomin returned the salute, "the big supervisor is polite."


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. Can Wuhe have something to ask Ji ruomin? Then she remembered that Wuhe was entrusted by the so-called daughter of an old friend last time... There were relatives outside the palace... She couldn''t help laughing. Wuhe is not a clean monk. Where wouldn''t there be some mundane and private affairs to do?


    When I thought about it, I saw that the five rivers had greeted me with a smile, "empress, how are you. Is it time to drive back to the palace or eat in the college canteen? " But his eyes couldn''t help glancing at the closed door of the conference room behind the queen.


    Zhuo Xi was worried that she would visit Ke min''s legendary new home in the afternoon. By the way, she had a look at their family, as well as the Xiyan Yangsheng hall and the healthy mother and baby hall. She hadn''t visited them for a long time, but she didn''t say anything. She just said, "go to change clothes in the Palace first, and you should serve your emperor."


    The five rivers responded, bowed down and sent the empress out, but secretly squeezed a sweat in her heart. I don''t know how the empress teased the Emperor


    He put down his hands, raised his finger tail slightly, and listened to a very small sound in the dark. Then he was slightly relieved.


    That''s the little eunuch dark guard that the emperor asked him to train. Although his martial arts can''t compare with that serious dark guard, it''s difficult for ordinary Jianghu people to get close. Although there is a flower beside the empress, it''s good to have two more people to meet when you go out. If something really happened, two more people ran errands to report.


    He has been guilty and regretful since the last post station incident. Although she knelt on the ground to apologize at that time, the frightened queen didn''t say a word, and the emperor only gave a faint order to "be a good job in the future" and left.


    I think I have served two generations of kings. I have seen many storms and waves on weekdays. This time, I fell a big somersault because of "the daughter of my old friend", which is really embarrassing. Who doesn''t know that the empress is the heart of the emperor. She not only frightened the empress, but also attracted assassins alone, which is enough for the king to cure the great crime of luring wolves into the house... But she has never been punished, and I don''t know when the day of fear will come to an end?


    More importantly, if the emperor doesn''t do it, it means that the Emperor may want to leave him to the empress to do it in person to dispel his anger... Although the empress is generous to servants, she is not afraid of heaven. If she is unhappy, her retaliation is not cruel, but it can be strange. She only said that her mother-in-law was given a wife with two bedrooms because she lied about the pregnancy of her eldest son''s daughter-in-law. Now she is in great regret... Not to mention that even the emperor dares to tease her and talk about herself who is not close to the Queen''s mother? This time the emperor was locked up in the conference room. He must have been teased again... Are you going in? Or don''t you go in?


    He remembered what had just been entrusted to Ji ruomin. Lord Luo of the last post station was immediately taken into custody by Tingwei government. Although the cabinet issued an order to cancel the transportation of war slaves to Beijing the next day, a group of war slaves escorted back to Beijing from datan set out a month ago. I just arrived in Kyoto a few days ago. I heard that they were all the daughters of young and beautiful otan princes and nobles. He reported to the emperor yesterday. Sure enough, the emperor waved his hand and asked him to hand it over to the queen. But how dare he report back to the queen? Lest the queen forget what happened last time?


    Fortunately, I saw Lord Ji waiting outside the door today, so I told her about it. The female slaves in the last post station were later pointed out to Lord Ji by the empress and entered the nursing college she heard she had just begun to prepare... Fortunately, they were noble women and had a foundation for literacy... Can these new female slaves go to the same place?


    Besides, it''s completely in line with the rules for all external palace affairs to reach the queen by Lord Ji... Lord Ji will ask the queen for instructions if necessary


    He was in a daze here. Lengbuding was hit with a folding fan on his head, but he saw that the master came out of the conference room, looked at himself calmly, and quickly bent down, "the Emperor... The queen went to change clothes. Do you think it''s time to drive back to the palace for dinner, or in the canteen?"


    The emperor walked forward with a negative hand, and a folding fan turned behind him, "call me outside! What''s your memory? Is it true that the queen is right that you have Alzheimer''s disease ahead of time? "


    Five rivers are sweating violently. The master in front of him calls himself "Lord", and he also calls himself "Queen"... And what is Alzheimer''s disease... It doesn''t sound good


    Then he listened to the master''s orders: "go and call Wang Feng out. I heard that his wife is a good cook. I''m going to his house to eat today!"


    A king went to a minister''s house to eat


    Hearing the news, Wang Feng was also sweating. He was watching with Bai Zhong around a realistic battlefield. Several students were practicing with the theories in books. When he saw the highlights, he saw the little eunuch around the emperor report.


    Wang Feng hurriedly sued several people in the same trade before he rushed to the emperor.


    The emperor did not take his son, and walked casually to the gate of the college.


    Wuhe has called an ordinary sedan chair man and respectfully asked them to get on the sedan chair.


    Jing Yuan wore ordinary clothes to travel. He lifted his clothes and got on the small sedan chair.


    Wang Feng ordered his little boy to go back to the house to prepare first, and followed him on the second small sedan.


    After a while, they arrived at the general''s mansion in Pingyuan.


    The gate of the general''s house opened quietly, and the housekeeper and the porter stood by the door with low eyebrows and eyes.


    Wang Feng led the master into the gate.


    The housekeeper and the Porter said in unison, "welcome the master back to the house."


    Jing Yuan nodded slightly and was very satisfied with Wang Feng and his servants.


    The five rivers behind him also took a high look, but at the moment of entering the threshold, they saw the legs of the housekeeper and the porter shaking like chaff.


    Wang Feng''s heart is beating drums.


    He never dared to belittle the new monarch who had just ascended the throne for less than two years. What''s more, I had a festival to hunt him down in the verdant mountain. Although I was only ordered to act at that time, after all, the death and injury of the encirclement and suppression were serious, and no one would forget the hatred of being forced to death. Later, although the queen extended an olive branch to the emperor because of her relationship, strictly speaking, the rescue did not really achieve the goal. After the emperor ascended the throne, Zhou Ji and Zhao Ting were quickly replaced. Zhao Ting was sent to the Northwest for the crime of coveting military pay and neglecting the lives of Daliang soldiers; A few weeks ago, the whole family fled because of the old case, but they could not escape the search and arrest of the army after all. He was the only one who not only firmly grasped the military power of heyongguan, but also was sent to datan later, holding 100000 troops. He was also sent a god subduing gun unreservedly. This is a trust and reuse beyond logic. Why he can get the favor and understanding of the emperor is the truth he has never known. For some time, he even thought that the emperor might be testing or even trying to blame him. On the one hand, he fought carefully and did not dare to do anything against the military order. On the other hand, he paid close attention to the situation at home in Kyoto. He wrote a letter almost every three days for fear that any wind or grass would harm the whole family.


    However, nothing in his imagination frightened him.


    On the contrary, he made great achievements in the battlefield.


    After taking over the entire military affairs of datan, he made one step at a time and dared not make a mistake. Especially the emperor''s old room, Yi has always been with him.


    Back to Kyoto, he was granted Pingyuan general.


    He felt instinctively that something was about to happen.


    Therefore, even though today is the last day to hand over the handsome seal, he handed in the handsome seal at the first time on the first day when he signed and issued the military order in the cabinet. In his opinion, Bai Zhong, Jing Yu and Jian Yi are all his foil. After the spring, maybe the three of them will really take the emperor''s so-called defense change, and they are afraid that they will never have the opportunity to go to the battlefield.


    However, what he witnessed at the military academy today made his blood boil. He sincerely hoped that things would not be as pessimistic as he thought.


    He even thought for a moment that if the emperor really let him leave his armor and return to the field, he would spend the rest of his life in this college and give his life''s accumulated experience to those young students.


    The emperor offered to be a guest at his home. What do you mean?


    They sat down in the study, and Jing Yuan sat at the top.


    Wang Feng knelt down and made a big gift. He fell on his head on the ground and didn''t dare to move. "Wei minister pleaded with the emperor."


    "Oh? What is Wang Aiqing guilty of? "


    Wang Feng said with difficulty, "in September of the second year of Zhongwu, Wei Chen was ordered to be in cangcui mountain..."


    He really can''t go on, hunting? chase? Search? Or pursuit?


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and sipped the tea he had just served. "Since he was ordered, what is the crime?"


    Wang Feng suddenly raised his head and stared round his eyes. He couldn''t believe his ears.


    This is a word he wanted to hear from the emperor in his dream.


    Since ancient times, emperors have been suspicious. Moreover, this is already a fact and there is no need to doubt it.


    Which emperor would be so generous?


    Jing Yuan smiled and asked, "in fact, Yu Liang is your man?"


    Wang Feng was stunned at first, and then his heart was shocked.


    He never thought that his family''s hundreds of lives and his great future were saved by that talent


    He didn''t dare to hide it immediately, and the sweat on his forehead stopped a lot. To be honest, he said, "six years ago, after my father-in-law found out that there was something strange about my mother-in-law''s death, because there were no available soldiers in hand, he discussed borrowing with Weichen. Weichen lent two people to his father-in-law. Yu Liang is one of them. Wei Chen really didn''t know that his father-in-law would put this man next to the Emperor... "


    Jing Yuan raised his eyelids and looked into the distance. He seemed to recall the anecdotes of accepting several pro guards in his early years... His future father-in-law wants to put someone around him, either for protection or monitoring. What else can he hesitate? Facts have proved that in those years, Wang Jialin did warn herself many times through him... In fact, even in the verdant mountain, if Wang Feng had not burned the mountains and forests in the East early, where would they have the time to retreat to the mine cave? So he didn''t want to accept the love of the two families... What he can do now is to keep them and reuse them as much as possible


    He glanced at Wang Feng, who was kneeling down and sweating, smiled and decided to give him another reassurance, "is Quercus more than two years old? Is your boy Wang Qin? How old is it? "


    Wang Feng replied, "I''m four years old..."

 Chapter 268

    "That''s just right. In two years, after the Enlightenment of the eldest prince, let Quercus and your family Wang Qin go into the palace to accompany them."


    Wang Feng was surprised and happy. I was surprised that my son could study with the two dragon sons and grandchildren. I was glad that the three would be able to form a deep friendship in the future. It was a small friendship. People all over the world say that when the emperor was the Marquis of Guang''an, he didn''t have any affection for his original fiancee, his sister-in-law and the beauty of king an. In fact, it''s not all true, right? His own son is all stained with the light of Wang oak... That''s the grandson and future Wu Jinbo personally recognized by the Empress Dowager!


    He thanked respectfully, "Wei minister kowtowed to the emperor for the dog!"


    Jing Yuan then returned to the topic: "General Wang, do you really want to go to the Baiyue countries in the south?"


    Wang Feng was greatly surprised again. He took the lead in seizing the site in the conference room with his heart. The Emperor didn''t say that it should be a game. At this time, the emperor raised the matter again. Is it a test or a sincere attempt to entrust him with an important task?


    He hesitated for a long time before he said firmly, "I have five countries in Daliang, with strong soldiers and powerful artillery. Baiyue countries have always been weak and poor. It is a good time to open up territory. If the emperor is willing to entrust the war, the minister will be devastated and die! "


    "The unification of the five countries is just a time when people''s livelihood is withering and everything is waiting to prosper. Why can we see a strong army?" Jing Yuan lost a mouthful of tea.


    Wang Feng told the truth, "it took more than three months for the minister to surrender to datan, and only 8000 soldiers died and wounded. Today, more than 270000 soldiers have been returned to datan Dading. This is partly due to artillery ammunition, but most of it is still due to sufficient food and supplies. If the emperor had no such surplus wealth, how could he easily launch a war for the reunification of the five countries? "


    Jing Yuan said coldly, "it is said that I got the treasure of the previous dynasty. To be honest, this batch of treasure has already been spent after a four front battle this year. Since then, the so-called expansion of territory, although I have the intention, I have only soldiers and guns, no money and food... "


    Wang Feng was stunned.


    Jing Yuan frowned.


    Wang Feng straightened his back unconsciously. He knew what the emperor would say next was very important.


    "As far as I know, among the seven small countries in the south, Baiyue has the largest land area and the strongest defensive force. It is the most difficult to conquer but also the most prosperous country. According to reliable information, most of the seven countries in the south are rich in golden Phoebe, ivory and a kind of green jade, called jadeite. The more transparent the green, the better... "He coughed. The" reliable "news was a little guilty. In fact, the queen just told him that it might exist... As for what is rich, What''s more, it''s an unknowable truth... In recent years, the five countries in Daliang have focused on their own door, but ignored the small countries outside


    But since we are going to start the first battle, how can we not draw a big cake?


    However, golden Phoebe has just been used by Kou Andie to decorate the house of princes and nobles, which is more expensive than ten thousand gold. Wang Feng has just returned to Beijing for a few days. Where will he know its value? Ivory and jade are rare things in the cool, and he may not be able to understand their value


    Seeing Wang Feng''s increasingly confused expression, he directly took a strong dose of medicine, "there are rich gold and silver mines in the seven countries. Especially the largest Bai Yue State. "


    Wang Feng directly changed from confusion to fossilization.


    The emperor''s intention is to let him, a general who wants to open up territory and build a career, rob other countries in hongguodi?


    Although the other three countries had been destroyed to complete the great cause of the reunification of Daliang, one of the biggest side effects was to search the palace libraries of the three countries and offer them to Kyoto City. But if they want to invade foreigners, don''t the dignified emperors have to use the excuse of "revitalizing the national prestige and raising the national style" to be high sounding?


    Jing Yuan spoke slowly, "Bai Yue is the first war..."


    So, is it for the follow-up war on the other three sides to fight this pioneer?


    Wang Feng didn''t know what language to describe it. It took a long time to find his voice, "yes! It is my great honor to share my worries for you! "


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    On the other side, Zhuo Xi and Ji ruomin are gossiping in the carriage.


    "What are you talking about? The eldest young master of the Wu family came to see their mother and son before Ke min''s marriage? He is incredibly willing to give up his son to follow doctor Hong''s surname? "


    Ji ruomin nodded, "more than that, on the wedding day of the manager of Keda, young master Wu came uninvited and gave rich gifts. He didn''t go back until he was drunk with the guests. However, no one except the bridegroom knew that he was the former... Husband of the manager of Kodak... "She always felt a little uncomfortable when she called Uncle Wu the" ex husband "of the manager of Kodak with the empress. Can a concubine be qualified to call her ex husband "ex husband"?


    However, since the promulgation of the subversive "monogamy" law, she has definitely clapped her hands.


    Since childhood, she has been neglected because she is not a legitimate but a concubine. She is also the eldest daughter. She can only work hard to learn both literature and martial arts. Of course, you can''t learn from your sister. Generally, you can only spell the force value and arithmetic value. However, there are few common women like her who can get what she wants. She has seen too many common female sisters raised in the house like slaves since childhood. The common son may have a slightly higher status because of the man, but it is far from the resources and respect that the legitimate son can enjoy. Due to the original recommendation system, even the common sons of the official family rarely get the opportunity to be recommended as officials. This is why the imperial examination system was widely praised and welcomed as soon as it was thrown out. It not only provides opportunities for poor students, but also opens another door for the common children of scholar families.


    Sometimes the world is not short of opportunities, but equal opportunities.


    Just like the establishment of women''s nursing college, women also have legitimate opportunities for education and work. According to the queen, in the future, there will be other industries that equally accept men and women to study and work together.


    At first, the most basic equality began with marital equality.


    This is an ancient and modern system. She can''t imagine what an angry situation would be if the patriarchal system used to three wives and four concubines suddenly threw out the law of monogamy.


    However, it is amazing that after several street debates among scholars, the support side steadily overwhelms the opposition side. And those old ministers who have always cared about the emperor''s children and have been unfaithful in an attempt to put concubines in the emperor''s palace have turned off the fire collectively. She didn''t know if the emperor''s big hand was behind it, but she knew that this law was the man''s promise to a woman at the peak of power in the world. The prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. The monarch who signs this order will naturally set an example.


    After Ke min''s marriage, she went to see their small home, a warm and detailed home atmosphere. She has been alone for too long, and her desire for home far exceeds her desire for the future. Therefore, in the decoration of her new house with Ziran, she consulted Ke min several times and visited her Xishan house several times. After the visit, I learned that the decoration of other people''s houses is comparable to that of myself? Just the welcoming brick in front of the screen wall behind the gate is actually the "fish brick" produced in Shaanxi official cellar. Not only the fish grain is lifelike, but also it is said that it needs slow fire to burn in the cellar for ten days. In the middle, it has to go through the procedure of three cold and three heat. The hardness is no less than the white jade used for paving the floor in the imperial palace. Fish bricks are generally dedicated to the government and the royal family, and there is often a price without a market. A piece on the black market costs at least three liang of silver. Ke min paved a yard in front of the screen wall. Only Dr. Hong, who knows nothing about the world but sees a doctor, can step on thousands of gold every day without feeling it. He can only be regarded as the newly designed floor tiles. Since the royal construction team accepted the housing reconstruction project of Wang Gongxun''s family in large quantities two years ago, several folk tiles have sprung up in the suburbs of Beijing, specializing in the production of all kinds of high-quality and low-cost bricks and tiles. Not to mention the window screen made of low-key Hunan yarn, the golden nanmu large dining table in the dark of the inner room, and the double-sided embroidery of flowers and birds in front of the dressing table.


    It was only when Xiao Meng came back that she knew that Wu Zhen, the eldest son of the Wu family, was Ke min''s ex husband. That''s why I talked about them with the empress in the carriage.


    Zhuo Xi asked with great interest, "it seems that Wu Zhen is not such a cold-blooded and ruthless person. Do you know why Wu Zhen and Ke min broke up? Have you seen the tragedy of Ke Min that day? Do you know what happened to her? "


    She saw Ji ruomin in a state of blankness and ignorance, and some hated iron and steel and helped her forehead, "you used to be comrades in arms and girlfriends! How can we not gossip about such an important old thing? It is said that gossip is a woman''s nature. Are you a woman? "


    Ji ruomin pointed to his nose in amazement, comrade in arms? confidante? She and kermin? She was a dark guard. Ke min had never seen her at all. When the two met, they were basically when Ke min had something to find the queen after she became a female official. She was generous enough to let herself visit the inner room of her main house. It was a deep conversation... Besides, the empress also said that it was an old thing. How could she dig her wound?


    When it comes to comrades in arms and girlfriends, she is more like the queen


    She swallowed a mouthful of water, rubbed her hands, and asked with a smile, "empress, I don''t know whether Ke min is a woman or not. But in order to prove that I am indeed a woman, I have a question in my heart. I always want to ask but don''t dare to ask... I don''t know... "If I''m a best friend, I don''t need to call myself a" servant ". Should I be ok?


    Zhuo Xi patted her chest and said, "ask! I''ll answer you whatever you can! "


    Sure enough.


    Ji ruomin was secretly happy. He swallowed another mouthful of water and asked in a low voice, "empress, who is the man called the wolf?"


    The carriage was quiet for a moment. A figure galloped out of the window and shouted, "master, you said that girlfriends are used to gossip..."


    The car is near the west mountain. It seems that there is a weak echo of "gossip" from the West Mountain in the distance

 Chapter 269

    Zhuo Xi in the car regretted the moment she waved her palm and photographed Ji ruomin out of the window.


    It''s not because she called the master and regarded herself as her best friend, nor did she fall out of the window without resistance, but because Zhuo Xi felt a long lost murderous spirit coming from all directions at the next moment.


    Yes, in all directions.


    She subconsciously got up and jumped in the direction of the window, trying to follow Ji ruomin''s figure.


    However, when her shoulder just touched the frame of the window, a waxy yellow hand suddenly stretched out of the window and hit her Cloud Gate and Zhongfu cave with great accuracy. She couldn''t move for an instant.


    She gnashed her teeth.


    I only heard the wordless groan of the driver in front, and then the sound of human flesh falling to the ground, but the carriage showed no sign of stopping. It is estimated that wordless was also replaced.


    Then there was a frightened cry, "master..." and Roubo''s voice.


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. Is it because the peaceful days have passed for a long time, and everyone''s vigilance and responsiveness have become lower and slower?


    Ji ruomin, who was flying out, also had just dropped her voice. At that moment, her eyes were about to crack, because she saw more than a dozen people in gray flying from the low pits on both sides of the lane and attacking the carriage.


    She had to shout a warning. Kankan stopped flying back and rushed forward, but she was blocked by three people in gray.


    Somehow, two people in black appeared in front of the gray man around the carriage and got entangled with them.


    Ji ruomin took a closer look. One was Hua Yan she knew, but the other didn''t know who it was.


    Within a few seconds, she had already made thirty moves with three people in grey clothes. She found that the people in grey clothes were not weak in martial arts. If it''s one-on-one, she and Hua Yan can also solve it, but the other party is crowded and can''t get rid of it in a short time. The master is also in danger


    Thinking of this, his moves became more and more fierce.


    Zhuo Xi in the car listened carefully to the voice outside. It was obvious that there were more than four people fighting


    She knew that Ji ruomin and Hua Yan must have been stopped.


    There are more than six people standing in all directions in various postures outside their car


    The layout is so careful and the time is so accurate. I think I must know her identity and have planned for a long time.


    She smiled bitterly and found that she could speak, so she said, "friends outside, since you have successfully caught the palace, please don''t hurt the subordinates of the palace."


    In a cold voice, Jie smiled twice before saying, "Gao Zhi is like the empress. How can he make such a stupid request?"


    Not hurting them means leaving their lives. What are you doing with their lives? Waiting for a tip to rescue her?


    Zhuo Xi smiled bitterly again, "it''s really the concern of the palace, but it''s chaotic. In that case, why don''t you take them all into the carriage of the palace and let them be a companion with the palace? I''m used to being served. I''m always forgetful. If I''m away from others, I''m afraid there are many important things I can''t remember... "


    Pass the handle to the other party and leave a few lives first.


    Sure enough, the voice outside the window was silent for a moment, and Jie smiled and said, "it''s easy to say!"


    Soon a man was thrown in first.


    Zhuo Xi stared and didn''t know him. Look at the costume, like a man in black who plays a temporary guest role as a eunuch.


    She thought to herself, is it the dark guard temporarily sent by Jing Yuan to her? The first one was captured. I''m afraid he was the weakest of the three outside. She didn''t understand all the time. Although the dark guards were hidden in the dark and dressed in black, they couldn''t blame each other, but didn''t they distinguish between day and night? Aren''t people in black more eye-catching during the day?


    The eunuch was obviously trapped in the acupoints and dumb acupoints all over his body and couldn''t open his mouth.


    After a while, another person was thrown in. It was Ji ruomin, who couldn''t move or speak.


    A moment later, Hua Yan was thrown in with a black face.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her eagerly.


    He has no internal power, and Hua Yan has the highest force value among the four of them. Can she break the acupoints with internal power?


    Who knows, Hua Yan just looked at herself softly and closed her eyes powerlessly.


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was cold. Were they fed with any medicine?


    She looked at Ji ruomin and asked, "have you been drugged?"


    Ji ruomin also answered with his mouth open, "yes. Just now. "


    Zhuo Xi is speechless. Is he the weakest in their eyes? No need for medicine? Or because you know it might not be useful to drug yourself?


    At present, he was the only one in the car who could speak, so he asked, "where do you want to take this palace?"


    The old and strange voice outside laughed again, "they all say that the queen has unique wisdom. How can she always ask such stupid questions?"


    Ji ruomin was angry.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care and continued to ask, "Oh, I''m too boring to be alone in the palace. Naturally, I want to find some topics to talk about..."


    "Cluck, do you want me to unlock the dumb acupoints for them? Stop dreaming! "


    Zhuo Xi really wanted to shrug her shoulders, but she couldn''t move up and down. She had to curl her lips and say, "I thought your martial arts were unparalleled and you should have great confidence in yourself. Just thinking that if we can unlock the dumb acupoint, the road will be more lively, and the palace will not be sleepy? "


    "It''s really hard driving all the way. If the queen is tired, it''s a good idea to sleep."


    "It was so good that I slept in the palace. If you get there, please don''t wake up the palace too soon. "


    So in the surprised eyes of the other three people, Zhuo Xi closed her eyes.


    After a while, she shouted to the outside, "can you find a pillow for the palace? The palace''s neck is stiff. Behind the neck is the cervical spine. I''m afraid it''s not just memory, but even the brain. "


    The voice outside came in with a sneer, "what place does the queen think this is? Would you like a warm fragrant soft pillow? I have only one big knife here. Do you want to? "


    Zhuo Xi really thought about it, "there''s no place to put the neck of the palace. It''s OK to have a big knife to block it! Why don''t you put a big knife between the window lattice and the seat, and the palace can lean against it. "


    The people outside seemed to hesitate.


    Zhuo Xi continued, "what? Your martial arts are unparalleled. Are you just blowing it? In the face of those of us who are inferior to you in martial arts and have been ordered acupoints and medicine, can''t we leave weapons for a moment? "


    With a bang, the man outside patted the big knife on the window. One hand was holding the big knife and was about to reach in.


    The crowd stared nervously at the crack in the window.


    But suddenly he saw the outside stop and the big knife was taken back in an instant.


    The next moment, Zhuo Xi immediately felt that his throat was tight and couldn''t open his mouth.


    It''s an empty point!


    The man Jie laughed, "it seems that I still underestimated the queen. I wanted to make you more comfortable. I didn''t expect to say a few words and almost hurt your way!"


    Zhuo Xi turned her eyes, and the plan could only be used once. She wanted to coax him to extend a knife and cross between the window and the seat, so that she could see the situation outside the window through the gap of the window.


    It doesn''t seem feasible.


    She closed her eyes and refreshed herself.


    On the other side, at the general''s mansion in Pingyuan, Wuhe received a tip. He almost stumbled into the study, trembling his upper teeth and lower jaw, "emperor, the emperor is bad... Empress..."


    Jing Yuan stood up and said, "what are you talking about?! Let someone come in and answer! "


    As soon as the five rivers gave way, a eunuch dressed in black fell to the ground. "Back to the emperor, the empress was attacked on her way to the west mountain. There were many people with high martial arts. Seeing that there was no chance of winning, the villain came back first and asked for help!"


    Jing Yuan''s whole body exuded a chilling air and took a look at the five rivers.


    Wuhe hurriedly replied, "emperor, Xiao Zhou is one of the little dark guards taught by slaves. Seeing that the empress had only Lord Ji and wordless with her, the servant was worried for a moment, so he asked Xiao Zhou and Xiao Feng to keep up with what happened in the dark and report back as soon as possible. "


    Jing Yuan nodded, "count you! I didn''t expect your old dog to be smart one day. "


    The five rivers breathed out, but did not dare to reveal anything.


    Jing Yuan only said in a deep voice, "go and tell Wang Yun to take 500 gold guards to the West Mountain immediately. Xiao Zhou, lead the way! "


    Wang Feng smiled bitterly when he heard the name Wang Yun. Without delay, he immediately said, "emperor, there are still some guards in Weichen''s family. Let Weichen accompany the emperor?"


    Jing Yuan had already stepped down from his seat and nodded, "I have to borrow the good horse from General Wang''s house."


    Wang Feng immediately replied, "please wait a moment, and Weichen will arrange it immediately!"


    Soon, the party stepped on horseback and galloped away from the general''s mansion in Pingyuan towards the west mountain.


    However, at the scene designated by Xiao Zhou, nothing could be found except the silence in a coma on the ground, some signs of fighting and the distress mark made by Hua Yan.


    Jin Yuwei also arrived nearby and began the search all over the mountains.


    Still without trace, without trace.


    When Zhuo Xi was taken to a room with his head covered, they didn''t know how long they had been in the carriage.


    When you enter the room, candles are burning in the room.


    The people in gray didn''t tie them up, and even pushed them into the room and untied their acupoints.


    It seems that they are very confident in their defense and force value.


    Zhuo Xi took a closer look at the man in grey.


    His thin body was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were covered with empty clothes. At first glance, it looks like a wicked man.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t speak.


    She knew that the person in front of her was just a knife, and the person with the knife would appear sooner or later.


    Sure enough, she didn''t have to wait too long. Soon, several people came in with a middle-aged man dressed in Python robes and a jade crown.


    "Are you Mingchang''s daughter, Yuxi?"


    Zhuo Xi didn''t answer.


    A man beside him angrily said, "why don''t you answer?"


    Zhuo Xi stood there without looking at the man. He only stared at the middle-aged man, but his look was careless. It seemed that there was a momentum of looking at the world unknowingly.

 Chapter 270

    The middle-aged man waved and the man next to him stepped down.


    The middle-aged man looked at Zhuo Xi and said with a smile, "it''s really worthy of being the daughter of my Yu family! This king''s spirit is natural! "


    Zhuo Xi said coldly, "Ming and the prince are afraid to recognize the wrong person?! This palace was born in the Wu family in Shanxi, ranking sixth. It was later sealed by the Empress Dowager and the emperor. I don''t know if the Yu family mentioned by Ming and the prince refers to the Yu family of the previous dynasty? What does it have to do with this palace? "


    Ming and the prince were not angry, but laughed, "if Xier is really smart, you should call me uncle two." He had long heard that this niece brought supreme technology from her school. She not only had that terrible magic gun, but also had a business mind that was advancing every day. If you can get her help, with a sharp blade and a golden mountain, why don''t you worry about the great cause?


    Zhuo Xi still sneered, "I don''t know how Ming and Prince He De can be worthy of the title of the second uncle of the palace?"


    Ming and the crown prince smiled, as if they were confident, "the crown prince saved your mother''s imperial concubine 20 years ago and has taken care of her so far. Can''t he be worthy of these three words?"


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "Oh? I don''t know if the mother imperial concubine mentioned by Ming and the prince refers to the emperor''s mother imperial concubine Xianru, who has died for many years, or the mother of the palace? The mother of this palace is now in Kyoto. Wu Jiaqiao is looking forward to the birth of a concubine for the first time and is ready to take care of the joy of adding children to the family... "


    Before she finished, she was interrupted by a sad voice, "Xier! You, how can you recognize a thief as your father? "


    A middle-aged woman rushed in.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help but step back. Ji ruomin and Hua Yan immediately stood in front of Zhuo Xi.


    The woman was in her thirties and forties. She didn''t have expensive decoration, but she was also dressed very generously and appropriately. She was wearing deep clothes made of Lake silk.


    But when she saw the woman''s facial features, Zhuo Xi was surprised.


    Her facial features are almost the same as Zhuo Xi, but she is an old and dignified, a young and luxurious.


    No one can mistake the two as mother and daughter.


    No wonder Ming and the prince have a clear mind. He is not afraid of Zhuo Xi denying her origin at all.


    Ming and the prince saw that she threw herself into the air and gave her a virtual hand, "Princess Chang, don''t worry, don''t worry. Now that Cheryl is right in front of us, what are you worried about? "


    Zhuo Xi reacted quickly, "recognize a thief as a father? Excuse me, madam, do you mean Xianru imperial concubine who raised me and taught me to understand things, or the Wu family who protected me and recognized me as my legal identity? Or the Jing family that respects me and gives me great power? " The Yu family, in addition to giving birth to her, has not provided any help. Do you have to sit back and enjoy your success if you want to marry someone?


    Princess Chang stared at her with red eyes. "In those years, if the Jing family hadn''t sent people to hunt down everywhere, how could your father and I have been separated so far? How can I leave you and grow up alone in the palace? "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "in those years, if the Yu family didn''t deceive people too much, how could it cause the chaos of the five surnames and harm the whole family?"


    When did it happen? Who is the source of trouble? Who is the real victim?


    This was too harsh for the prince Ming and the prince. He angrily said, "Yu''s royal family has inherited the destiny of heaven. Can it be compared with those disorderly officials and thieves?"


    Zhuo Xi replied, "now Jing''s unification of the five countries and Submission from all over the world, isn''t it heaven''s destiny?"


    Yu clan was pardoned and should have a good rest with his tail. If he came out to make trouble, he would be a disorderly subject and thief.


    Ming and the crown prince were more angry. "Jing can unify the five countries, it all depends on you, Yuqian! If it weren''t for you, would Jing Yuan have the chance to have a divine cannon bomb? "


    Very good. It seems that her reputation has become famous all over the world. Even the hiding people of the Yu family know her reputation.


    She laughed, "even if I am the greatest contributor to the unification of the five countries, what does that have to do with you?"


    Princess Chang pointed at her and couldn''t say a word for a long time.


    Ming and the crown prince laughed angrily, "you can''t admit it. As long as Princess Chang appears in front of Jing Yuan, do you think he won''t be suspicious? How can an emperor leave a remnant of the former dynasty on his pillow? "


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "there are many similar people in the world. Can a similar face prove that she is my mother? Isn''t Miss Wu jialiu a joke? " As like as two peas in the Yuan Dynasty, Zhao Jialing has another one who looks exactly like the yuan yuan.


    Besides, doesn''t he already know that she is the remnant of the previous dynasty?


    As soon as Princess Chang''s body was soft, she fell to the ground, tears rustled down, and choked for a long time, "Xier, I know you blame my mother. In those days, my mother could not protect herself, so she would...... "


    Zhuo Xi interrupted her bitter drama, "madam, I don''t want to know how you left your husband and son to escape alone. The palace can only tell you that your daughter was buried with the tomb when Wang Hong first died three years ago. "


    Ming and the prince looked at her suspiciously, "you say, the real Yuxi is dead?"


    "Absolutely true." Zhuo Xi looked at them and said, "as a young girl of the Wu family, I grew up in the countryside when I was young. I was taught by a hermit expert. I practiced calligraphy at the age of three and practiced martial arts at the age of six. I know astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom. If this palace is really Yuxi in your mouth, imagine how an ordinary palace slave who is longer than the hand of the eunuch in the back palace can give advice to the emperor and make divine artillery iron? " In short, all these have nothing to do with Yu family.


    Although she occupied the body, the relatives of the original owner were really powerless. How could she give up her husband''s territory to the so-called blood relatives who were strangers to her? Besides, I have saved sun Yao and advised Jing Yuan to cancel the Yu clan hunting order. Is it right for her? She was poisoned and poisoned. If she hadn''t helped Jing Yuan and forged a deep friendship with Xianglan Fengxin along the way, would she have gone to see her father?


    Ming and the prince stumbled, with a heavy blow on their face. What he had been planning, always experienced hope and disappointment... Zhuo Xi''s identity was the last chip in his hand. Unexpectedly, it was nothing.


    Princess Chang fell on the ground and cried, "my poor daughter..."


    Zhuo Xi turned to Ming and the prince, "today''s Daliang Empire has nothing to do with your Yu family. The Yu family has been pardoned by the emperor. Three generations later, they can participate in the imperial examination and become officials. This is what sun Yao bought with the freedom of the second half of his life, and it is an unprecedented peaceful day for the Yu family. We don''t know why you must stick to a blood that you have long abandoned. Or you can tell us why you abducted us here? "


    "Sun Yao? Ming Ying? Hahaha... "Ming and the prince laughed wildly and said angrily," it''s useless for the prince to trust her so much, send her to Zhao Jialing to learn the art of witchcraft and insects, and hand over the whole feather door to her! In the end? If she hadn''t made up her own mind, the crown prince would have been in charge of Zichen hall! And the minglan who can''t accomplish enough and can''t defeat! The prince asked her to poison the Empress Dowager and the emperor, but she wanted to save Mingying. Instead, she attacked you... "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. It turned out that Jiang huailan had a plot to enter the palace, which was instigated by the shameless man in front of her?


    She stepped forward and slapped him in the face.


    The grey man guarding the door was also shocked. He flew over to grab her wrist. The little eunuch next to him hit Zhuo Xi and knocked her apart. His arm fell into the grey man''s hand. He only heard the sound of bone fracture. The little eunuch screamed and looked miserable.


    Hua Yan and Ji ruomin hurriedly protect Zhuo Xi behind them.


    Ming and the prince woke up from the shock of being beaten, waved their hands and asked the man in gray to step down.


    Zhuo Xi shook her painful palm and said slowly, "these two slaps, one for sun Yao and the other for Jiang huailan. Sun Yao, as the queen, did not hesitate to kill her husband and seize the country. After her attempt to seize the country failed, you abandoned her like a fraud. But if she succeeds and helps you ascend the throne, what can you give her? Is the position of a long Princess comparable to that of a queen? You ask yourself, even if you sit on the Dragon chair, can you govern the world and guard the rivers and mountains? Jiang huailan had the opportunity to enter the palace to plot future events. The first thing he wanted was to rescue his sisters, but finally he accompanied himself and his daughter''s life. Tiger poison doesn''t eat children, do you? You''re not even as good as animals. Relying on your royal descendants, you hide in an unknown corner and shrink your head, but you send your sisters out to show up and teach them to kill their husbands and abandon their children to seek land for you! What contribution have you made? Have you ever earned a penny and washed a dress? If it were not for these loyal servants and dark guards, would you live to this day? What did you give these loyal servants? A lifetime of hiding? Or an illusory work from the dragon? "


    Zhuo Xi paused and continued, "for the same reason, what is the purpose of Ming and the prince to recognize this niece in the palace? Don''t say that this palace is not your niece. Even if it is your own niece, someone will give her husband''s Dragon chair to her uncle? Was the man kicked in the head by a donkey? "


    Ji ruomin couldn''t help sweating on his forehead. Did his master have the consciousness of being kidnapped? Why did he scold the kidnapper for being inferior to animals, and scold the kidnapper for being kicked by a donkey in the head?


    The room was silent. Ming and the prince had never been scolded so much in person. They were confused for a moment and didn''t know how to react.


    A man in grey took the lead in responding, shouted "presumptuous" and bullied himself.


    At the same time, a voice came in brightly from the outside, "well said! That man was kicked by a donkey on the forehead! "


    The man in grey at the door is like a great enemy.


    Three figures were kicked in together with the wooden door.


    Although Ji ruomin and Hua Yan were forced to take soft tendon powder, they supported the last trace of strength to block in front of the queen.


    The man in grey quickly pushed them aside one by one, and flew up to catch Zhuo Xi''s throat.


    Zhuo Xi dodged the ghost hand that would kill her. When she saw a figure flying in outside the door, with a gentle wave of her sleeve, she threw the gray man in front of her aside, straight through the window and fell out.

 Chapter 271

    When the moon came, the whole house was illuminated. He stretched out his broad robe and grabbed Zhuo Xi who stumbled because of avoidance. The violent color of his eyes gradually disappeared. He stared at her up and down. His clenched teeth finally loosened and his thin lips opened, "Xi''er, are you okay?"


    Zhuo Xi felt that her eyes were about to appear heart-shaped. She was so handsome. Do you have wood?


    She sucked her nose, grabbed his snow-white sleeve and wiped the corners of her eyes. Then she pointed to Xiang Ming and the prince, "yes, they all bullied me..."


    The people in grey almost knelt. Empress, they didn''t touch them except robbing the carriage? After entering the house for a while, they didn''t have time to do anything at all. She pointed at the nose and scolded the animals for being inferior. She also scolded the donkey for being kicked in the forehead... Who was bullying who? Emperor, as a generation of wise monarchs, you can''t be partial to listen and believe?


    The wise and mighty emperor asked the man in his arms, "Oh, how do you want to bully back?"


    One of the men in grey knelt directly.


    Zhuo Xi put out her head with a smile and looked around. She found that one of the three people who were kicked in and lying on the ground moaning was the old man in gray headed by the day.


    She pointed again with her slender jade hand, "he points to my acupoints! They also forced adults Ji to eat soft gluten powder! Oh, yes, and this, I just broke the little eunuch''s arm. Otherwise, we also feed them soft tendon powder first, and let people point their acupoints every two hours to play. If there is resistance, we can break an arm or a leg at will? Do you agree? "


    Jing Yuan glanced, "don''t you do it yet?!"


    The five rivers standing at the door wiped the sweat on their forehead and gave way to several dark guards with super high force value behind them.


    Ming and the prince finally reacted and stood in front of several people in gray and shouted, "what do you want to do?! The emperor personally issued a royal decree to exempt the people of the Yu family from hunting. Does the emperor want to go back? "


    Jing Yuan said calmly, "who said he was going to hunt down the people of Yu family? The person I want is the bandit who dares to hijack the queen today. Hijacking and assassinating royal family members, even killing nine families. But I don''t know what your relationship with these bandits is? "


    Ming and the prince turned pale.


    "It doesn''t matter, it doesn''t matter. We both passed here tonight and came in to chat with the queen. Just talk. " Princess Chang said with a smiling face that lalaming and the prince''s sleeves retreated to the corner.


    Several people in grey lying on the ground looked at the owner in disbelief.


    Jing Yuan stared at the five rivers he was fascinated by.


    The five rivers looked cold and said loudly, "take them all down! Go to death row! Find out the people related to the hijacking of the Queen''s car. After the Queen''s punishment is executed, all nine families will be killed! "


    The people in grey clothes looked as if they were dead gray. When they were escorted out of the door by the dark guards, someone shouted in a low voice, "Prince..."


    Ming and the prince said nothing.


    Princess Chang was so nervous that she yelled, "what''s your name? It''s all your own opinion. It has nothing to do with us?! Do you want to kill us? "


    Wuhe looked at the look of the two masters and added loudly, "if there are people who expose the behind the scenes, you can consider commutation as appropriate..."


    Immediately I heard a noise outside the door.


    Ming and the crown prince and Princess Chang immediately turned pale.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t bother to pay attention to them. She dragged Jing Yuan''s sleeve and asked, "how did you find us?" It''s so fast. She hasn''t had enough.


    I was so fast in the carriage that I didn''t have time to prepare anything.


    By the time the little black house untied the acupoints, she had found several packets of powder and was ready to find a chance to make them suffer.


    Unexpectedly, Jing Yuan came here after only a few words.


    "Of course it depends on it." Outside the door, a boy came in with a thing in his arms.


    Zhuo Xi came forward and touched happily, "Xiaobai, it''s you! You''re great! Xiao Meng, why are you here? "


    Xiao Meng said with a smile, "I originally received a letter from my sister to meet sister Ke min at her home. On the way, I met the supervisor of Wuhe University and searched everywhere. I heard that my sister was hijacked. I happened to take Xiaobai with me. I wanted Xiaobai to go out of town with me. I heard that my sister couldn''t find it, so Xiaobai couldn''t lie down and twisted in my arms. I remembered that my sister had said that Xiaobai could find her no matter where she was. I quickly asked her if she knew where her sister was. It brought us all the way! "


    Sure enough, I had a good trip and found this place quickly.


    "You are such a cheating artifact!" Zhuo Xi happily touched Xiaobai''s head and said.


    Xiaobai looked at her proudly. Artifact is artifact. Why should Mao cheat?


    Princess Chang looked at the corner of the wall in disbelief. Then she ran forward and excitedly wanted to touch Xiaobai in Xiaomeng''s arms. Her lips fluttered and murmured, "you are Xiaoxue, you are Xiaoxue! How old are you? She''s your master, isn''t she? I let you drink a little of her blood. You think the owner is her, right? "


    Xiaobai doesn''t bother to pay attention to her. She proudly retracts into Xiaomeng''s arms and goes to bed.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. She finally understood why Xiaobai could find her even in the tomb path... It turned out that Xiaobai drank her blood when she was a child, so she thought she was the main... The tomb path under the water can be found


    But the point doesn''t seem to be here


    Princess Chang looked at Zhuo Xi. Her dead eyes showed brilliance again, and she said in a trembling voice, "you, you really..."


    Ming and the prince also reacted, rushed up and laughed and said, "it''s really you, it''s really you... You are..."


    He suddenly stuck his hands around his neck and gasped several times. Then he fell down and sat on the ground. He was out of breath. His face turned red. He covered his heart with one hand and stretched out to Princess Chang with the other hand. He said hard, "medicine... Medicine... Give me medicine..."


    Princess Chang was stunned, then she held her hands, tears came out of her eyes and gently shook her head.


    Ming and the prince urged, "hurry... Hurry... Give me the medicine..."


    Princess Chang struggled violently in her heart. After a long time, she touched her hand to her sleeve.


    Ming and the prince stared at her hand hopefully.


    It seemed a long time before I saw her slowly take her hand back from her sleeve. However, there is nothing on hand.


    He was furious.


    Looking at her tearful expression, he suddenly understood her mind.


    Over the years, although nominally she can only be his sister-in-law, everyone around her doesn''t know that she has long been a crown princess without a name. He suffers from asthma. In order to avoid being found by others, he always hid the medicine on her. Unexpectedly, today''s great joy and sorrow, asthma relapsed. She... She


    There was less and less air between the chest and abdomen. He only felt that the whole lung was about to explode. His hands had no strength. He had to lift one hand to her more difficultly. He exhausted his strength to make the word "medicine" roll out of his throat


    His eyes were blurred. He remembered that he had lived in hiding for more than 30 years... His wife and daughter who had been separated on the way to escape... He remembered that the woman had conceived his child three times, but had to have a tearful abortion... At the moment when he finally closed his eyes, he thought, It was a beautiful dream that appeared in his dream all the time these years: that was the day when he was crowned prince when he was a teenager. The father held him in his arms, pointed to the magnificent hall and told him that these would be his


    Princess Chang knelt beside him.


    Jing Yuan looked coldly.


    Zhuo Xi touched Xiaobai''s head and asked Xiaobai''s condition.


    Xiao Meng replied that he had improved a little and could turn his head slightly.


    Wuhe took some packets of powder and said it was the antidote of ruanjin powder.


    Zhuo Xi took it, identified it, nodded and let Ji ruomin take it.


    The eunuch named Xiaofeng, dark Wei, was helped down to heal.


    Xiao Meng hesitated and asked, "empress, do those people really want to kill the nine families?"


    Zhuo Xi thought that Xiao Meng was also the blood of the Yu family. If she really killed the nine families, wouldn''t she cut him too? She hurriedly comforted, "what kill the nine families? The emperor frightened them! "


    She immediately felt that the people around her exuded a cold feeling. She quickly put her hand into his palm and quickly followed Mao''s way, "the emperor''s house is kind-hearted. Naturally, she won''t do such a crazy thing. Besides, isn''t the palace here? It''s better to let them work as coolies to create value than to kill them! "


    Xiao Meng''s eyes brightened, but when he looked at the emperor''s frosty face, he looked incredulous.


    Zhuo Xi saw this and held his hand tighter. "If you don''t believe it, ask your brother-in-law!" She shook her hand, the hand in her heart, "do you think so? Isn''t it? "


    Xiao Meng looked at the emperor suspiciously. The emperor nodded reluctantly and made an "um" sound from his nose.


    He cheered and hurriedly asked, "sister, my Wulin mountain base still lacks a lot of strong labor. The batch of glazed bricks will be under pressure years later. Why don''t you give them to me!?"


    Zhuo Xi swept the man next to him and said, "ask your brother-in-law! He''s in charge! "


    Jing Yuan looked at Xiao Meng without expression.


    Xiao Meng was waiting for him to answer, but he saw that he was staring at himself, and a force came from his head. In a cold sweat, he looked at the Queen''s sister.


    Zhuo Xi prompted him with her mouth, "ask."


    Xiao Meng held his hand high over his head and saluted, "emperor, can you reward the villains outside as coolies?"


    Still no sound.


    He looked at the Queen''s sister, saw the mouth hint, Fu Lingxin, bowed and asked, "the emperor''s brother-in-law, can you..."


    Sure enough, the emperor was in a good mood. Before he finished, he coughed and said, "I''m a group of dying bandits. I don''t have a name. I''ll reward you! But they are all armed with martial arts and five rivers. They abolish everyone''s martial arts and hand them over to young master Yu after they become slaves! "


    "Thank you, brother-in-law of the Emperor..."


    "But..." Zhuo Xi pointed to the old man in grey who was stunned by the broken heart pulse on the ground and said, "remember, this man wants someone to light his acupoints every two hours and let him have a good taste of being made by others..."


    She hates others to point her acupoints most in her life


    The emperor''s brother-in-law was in a good mood and took the Queen''s hand and strode out of the small black house.


    Ji ruomin behind him was stunned.


    It took five rivers a long time to recover. When did your master become so cannibal?


    At this time, Princess Chang, who was lying on the ground, made a tearing cry. Impatiently, she took out the medicine bottle in her sleeve and opened it tremblingly. The black pills were spilled all over the ground. She madly stuffed the pills into the mouth of Prince Ming and Prince.


    But the people on the ground have lost their breath forever.


    Five rivers followed the emperor and empress empress, bent over and asked, "the former Ming and crown prince and former Princess chang..."


    There was a silence.


    Zhuo Xi said softly, "bury him well. Ask Princess Chang where she is going and let her go by herself... "

 Chapter 272

    Ke min''s Xishan residence didn''t succeed. In the shock of the party, the emperor and the Queen''s Luan drove back to the palace. It was already the middle of the moon.


    All the people in Ning''an palace waited at the gate of the palace with scorched faces.


    When Zhuo Xi stepped down from the carriage, he could not attend to the people who knelt down to salute, nor could he disperse a trace of eyes to Xianglan, who suddenly knelt on the edge. He only had time to ask mother Wu to "take care of the great prince" and chased Jing Yuan, who was black faced and cold.


    The Spring Festival Gala and the palace people looked at each other.


    The five rivers that followed tightened up and went straight back to rest.


    The emperor always doesn''t need his service in Ning''an palace. Besides, the Lord is so angry, is he going to stay here as cannon fodder?


    The emperor exuded a fierce spirit, which scared the palace people waiting inside to kneel down and avoid, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.


    Jing Yuan bypassed the gate of the dormitory hall and directly stepped into the bathroom of the ear room of the dormitory hall. Because he was too angry, he kicked the door.


    Zhuo Xi, who followed, was almost photographed by the door.


    She stood still.


    Sure enough, "it''s not cold inside!"


    Zhuo Xi touched her nose and swept the end of her eyes. Sure enough, none of the palace people with eyes were seen.


    When she opened the door and went in, she saw that his jade crown, belt, coat and shoes had been lost all the way... The man was loosening his close fitting middle coat.


    Zhuo Xi looked straight.


    It''s not the first time she has seen his good figure. Rumo''s long hair is on his shoulder and back, below which is a narrow and tight waist, slender thighs, and... Exquisite and upturned hips


    He turned and stepped into the bathtub and gave her a cold look.


    She swallowed her saliva and suddenly remembered that he was still angry... She quickly picked up the white towel hanging on one side and trotted forward to smooth her hair, "wipe your back, little."


    I blame myself for leaking on the road.


    But I can''t blame her! When Xianglan sent him the news earlier, he knew that the big boss behind Sun Yao and Jiang huailan would appear. Although sun Yao and Jiang huailan have been instilled with the idea of restoring the country and revenge since childhood, they are women after all. They can be cruel to the people next to them, but their children are always a piece of meat falling from themselves. How can they be really ruthless? Moreover, they can give up their hatred and desire because they have no intuitive feelings about the kingdom of Yudian 30 years ago, let alone enjoy the honor they should enjoy as a princess. But the legendary Ming and the crown prince are different. He grew up in the arms of the last emperor of Yudian, received the education of the future emperor and enjoyed the honor of the country''s Prince. How could he easily give up his revenge?


    And she was sure that she and the prince would not hurt themselves.


    He still had to rely on her power to usurp the throne. Even for the technology and business ideas in his mind, he would not do anything to himself.


    So she was relieved to be arrested. She also arranged for Xianglan to find the right time to report to the emperor at the military academy, and arranged for Xiao Meng and Xiao Bai to prepare to "meet" them near the west mountain. She didn''t worry that Jingyuan couldn''t find her at all, but she didn''t expect Xianglan to have time to report. The emperor had been crazy and asked people to search the whole west. When little Meng Shanshan came late, the emperor was already on the verge of collapse.


    So when the Emperor himself came in, he slapped the old man in grey with his fist and fainted to the ground.


    She didn''t know he could be so angry.


    I don''t know that he didn''t receive the report from Xianglan and arrived at the first time.


    Acting requires a full set. So she asked in the carriage, "how about Xianglan?"? Is the injury serious? "


    Because she was too guilty, she didn''t find Jing Yuan silent for a moment and said, "her whole leg was broken and she couldn''t move, so she didn''t come with her. I have sent someone to treat her. "


    Zhuo Xi jumped up and shouted, "how can a dead girl do this to herself?!"


    As soon as she spoke, she covered her mouth and looked at him in horror.


    In order to cover up her plan, Xianglan pretended to meet her and went to Ke min''s Xishan residence together. Then he pretended to be attacked together and tried his best to escape and report to the military academy. In this way, the emergence of Xianglan has an explanation. Of course, in fact, Xianglan can''t appear on the carriage. Who knows if the visitor is powerful enough? What if Xianglan can''t escape?


    Who knows this sentence, it shows its feet.


    As soon as Jing Yuan contacted her, she immediately knew that the whole event was under her arrangement.


    He blew his hair at that moment and asked her repeatedly, "is it fun? Is it fun? "


    The carriage was immediately pierced into a convertible by him.


    She said, "no, no, it''s not fun, it''s not fun at all."


    I''m kidding. It''s a severe winter. Who will drive a convertible out for a night tour?


    She smoothed her hair all the way without any effect.


    So she had to enjoy the winter stars all the way back to the palace.


    Jing Yuan leaned against the bathtub with his head against the bathtub wall and said nothing. After a while, he even closed his eyes.


    Zhuo Xi''s hand with a small towel was in a dilemma.


    Wipe your back. His back is against the white jade wall. You can''t wipe it.


    Wipe your chest. The scenery in front is too easy to lead people to crime. What if she has a big animal hair?


    The bathtub is designed according to her original design. All the surroundings are white jade. Several water holes are specially chiseled on the wall in order to use some massage effect. Warm water is open 24 hours, like a hot spring.


    At this time, Jing Yuan''s black hair was scattered by the white jade pool, which set off the pale yellow skin color of his shoulders exposed to the water, as white as jade. His face was calm and frightening. He closed his eyes, closed his thin lips in a straight line, and his resolute nose showed his anger slightly.


    She held the towel tightly in her hand.


    Why does this man, no matter which side, make her feel extremely sexy?


    As usual, she would have jumped on it.


    But today she dare not. He was on the edge of rage. If he jumped on it, he would be tortured to death


    She bit her lips to restrain her eagerness to jump. Suddenly, she had an idea, put the towel aside, stuffed the wide dress sleeves into her belt, and then pulled the rope for warm water.


    With a "wow", warm water flowed down from the wooden shower on the top.


    He jumped up, but I was scared by the sound of soft water, so I threw my head behind him


    Jing Yuan was shocked and sat still.


    Her hair was moved to the edge of the bathtub, just behind his hair.


    Two little claws rubbed on his head. He shook his mind and felt comfortable. He fell into the warm memory of lying down and washing his hair when he was a child


    After a while, the fragrance of soap horn came from overhead. Then I heard the nagging voice behind me. For a moment, what was "this soap horn is really difficult to use. Let someone prepare some shampoo another day", and for a moment, what was "Why are you a big man with such black and long hair? People and gods are angry! ", After a while, he simply said, "I''m so tired. Is it so cumbersome to wash a man''s hair for hair? Hundreds of times? Why haven''t you washed it? "


    Jingyuan''s anger slipped away bit by bit in her complaint, and she couldn''t help smiling at her back lips.


    Finally, the water on the shower stopped. Zhuo Xi took the dry cloth aside, wrapped his hair and helped him up.


    She looked him in the eyes very seriously and said, "I strongly suggest you change your hair style. Really, oblique punk, partial split, board inch head or three or seven open all suit your heart-shaped face..."


    He drew a little radian from the corner of his eye, and his eyes were as beautiful as silk. He naturally opened his mouth in a warm voice at will, "what kind of hairstyle is the gray wolf?"


    She watched the spring breeze blooming on his face and couldn''t move her eyes. She unconsciously answered very casually and naturally, "he, it''s a center point valgus. It''s better when he works. It''s elegant and fluffy. It''s a little smart..."


    The radian of the eye corner of the man in front of him was recovered in an instant. It was easy for some warm eyes to "brush" out the cold like ice. He turned and took the back of his head to her. Especially the back of the head is wrapped in a white cloth... How do you look like an angry doll


    So what?


    She regained her mind, carefully recalled the conversation just now, immediately straightened her back, slapped her face decisively and continued, "but it''s very ugly when it''s wet. It looks like a big traitor... I hate it very much!"


    The voice just fell. It seemed wrong. How could you see the man''s wet hair? Isn''t that a sign of his deep relationship with him?


    The emperor stood up from the water with a "crash", strode to the clothes hanger, picked up the black bedclothes "brush" and put them on him. Without saying a word, he walked towards the door.


    Zhuo Xi looked terrible. The door he was going to open was not the inner door to the dormitory hall, but the door that had just come in directly from the outside. What''s going on if you don''t go back to the bedroom so late? This angry


    She rushed up with a decisive arrow, hugged his waist and rubbed her face on his steamy bedclothes. Instead of quickly admitting her mistake, the villain complained first, "is it interesting for a big man to eat this non-existent flying vinegar? You are the king of a country. You should think about the world! How can you stop your eyes on this meaningless needle? You have a small mind, you know? I know I should discuss with you in advance, but I didn''t do it to completely solve this cancer that threatens your throne all day? Now that it''s all over, don''t be angry! Don''t be angry, you hear me? "


    Jing Yuan was so angry that he turned around and pinched her chin. His eyes were fierce, "am I small? I eat flying vinegar? "


    Zhuo Xi shuddered and said, "isn''t it? I''ve been angry all the way about this little thing. Up to now, people wash your hair and make amends. What else do you want? When it comes to the wolf, let the air conditioner go. Isn''t it eating flying vinegar? "

 Chapter 273

    He smiled, "my queen fought with her life in danger. I was so worried and scared that I almost lifted the whole western mountain. In the end, I found that it was just the Queen''s good plan. Shouldn''t I be angry? I only ask the wolf, and you have ten sentences waiting to return to me. Can''t I stop talking? Who deliberately withheld the original routine reward of Bo Shizi of Wujin and shoddy it? "


    Zhuo Xi''s head was getting lower and lower, but she was really angry... Even "I" used it... But at last, she raised her head, cleared all her guilt, and said confidently, "you, you still said you don''t care about your ex fiancee? If you don''t pay attention, how do you know I''ll withhold her son''s routine reward and shoddy it? "


    Jing Yuan was stunned. She sighed helplessly and took her into her arms. "It''s not all Wu Jinbo shouting that his son''s reward has been changed... If I don''t know... Let''s stop eating these flying vinegar. I won''t mention the wolf in the future. You forget beauty Wang. However, in the future, you must not risk yourself, even if you deliberately scare me... "I find that I can''t bear that fear


    Zhuo Xi kept his little head straight into his arms, "no matter what, no matter what, you are not allowed to be angry with me! You were so angry that you scared the baby to death... "


    "Baby?" Didn''t the baby sleep with mother Wu?


    She raised her head, tooted her lips and asked for a kiss, "yes, the baby wants to kiss..."


    Jingyuan''s lips were directly sealed by a hook on her lips.


    Zhuo Xi has 10000 horses running in her heart, baby son. In order not to let your father even fly your vinegar, your mother, I don''t guarantee my evening! Directly position yourself at the same level as you... What do you want to learn?


    However, somehow I coaxed the master


    The next day, Ji ruomin took the menu program of the new year''s Eve banquet for her to finalize.


    She thought about last year''s fireworks and regretted that she couldn''t see it this year. Suddenly she remembered that Yu Meng came back and immediately excitedly asked people to call him into the palace and ordered him for a while.


    Spring warmth has also completely recovered. Zhuo Xi asked her to go out of the palace to Xiyan health museum to celebrate the new year with Ke min, Xianglan, Xiaoji, Xiaoguai and so on.


    The new year''s rites of all aristocratic families have also been arranged according to the old rules and regulations.


    The seal has been sealed. The emperor and the empress rarely take xiaoyu''er to Ci''an palace to play cards with the Empress Dowager for a few days.


    On the 28th day, someone from Princess Qianchang''s house reported happily that Princess Qianchang launched it in the morning and won a man in one fell swoop six hours later. Several people were playing cards and were overjoyed at the news. The Empress Dowager repeatedly said "reward!"


    Luojun horse was even faster. On the second day, he proposed a folding son and handed it to the emperor. It can be seen that he was happy.


    Jing Yuan won''t refuse such a happy event. He directly approved the word "quasi" and left it for years to be sealed, covered the Dabao and sent it back to Princess Chang''s house.


    In a twinkling of an eye, it was new year''s Eve..


    But there is also an episode in the middle.


    A few days ago, Xiaozhu, an apprentice sent by Wuhe to handle the funeral for Ming and the prince, came back and quietly reported to the master that the former Princess Chang had been wandering at the gate of the palace for several days.


    After all, he had a close relationship with the queen. Wuhe didn''t delay much. He directly asked Xiaozhu to go to Ning''an palace and report the news to the emperor.


    Zhuoxi sent Chunqing and Xiaozhu to send Princess Qianchang to Xiyan Yangsheng hall, and bought a girl to take care of her.


    On the morning of the new year''s Eve, Zhuo Xi asked Chunqing to send the new year''s gift, but he didn''t say much.


    Chunqing came back and said that she now claimed to be Mrs. Yu. When she received Zhuo Xi''s new year''s gift, she burst into tears and asked Chunqing to bring some fur back. She said it was inconvenient to eat and send it to the palace, and there was no time to make clothes, shoes and socks. She had to send some leather first, so that the palace could watch and make two pieces to relieve the cold.


    Mrs. Yu didn''t tell anyone.


    But Chunqing knows it can only be for the queen.


    Zhuo Xi thought for a moment and suddenly remembered Yu Meng, who lived in the Marquis of Guang''an, and wrote a letter to him.


    New year''s Eve banquet is a rule in the palace. Although Yu Meng is her nominal cousin, she is not qualified to enter the palace. In love and reason, neither she nor Mrs. Yu can have further contacts. But she can''t really ignore it. After all, Mrs. Yu and Yu Meng still have a real blood relationship, and Yu Meng is her open cousin. If Mrs. Yu is willing to accept Yu Meng, there will be some connections between the three people. If she wants to take care of her, she also takes some justification. Mrs. Yu has a dependency for the rest of her life. If Yu Meng wants to start a family in the future, it''s better for someone in his family to be in charge. She thought Mrs. Yu would not refuse to kill three birds with one stone.


    Just after the eleventh hour, all the people attending the banquet in the palace basically arrived.


    It''s freezing. Who doesn''t want to end early and go home early?


    Zhuo Xi perfunctorily made the opening remarks before the banquet, then accepted the gratitude of the life women, and then announced the banquet.


    In fact, she was secretly waiting for another big meal after the Palace Banquet.


    Nowadays, the life women attending the Palace Banquet are very used to sitting at the round table, and the embarrassment of touching the cup sheath at close distance has disappeared. They feel that this way is very helpful to narrow the relationship between each other.


    At the Empress Dowager''s table, Jing Qian and Jing Mo, one of whom had just given birth and was about to give birth, did not attend, so they put the children together and sat with their ancestors. Feng Xin also came with Yao''er. In addition, Huang Di Huan and Da Huang Zi Yu are peers. Luo Yuan and Yan Ling are lively and lively. The atmosphere on the banquet is still very lively. Even Wu Jin''s Boshi son Wang Li, led by his sister Pingyuan general''s wife, came to the palace to celebrate the banquet. However, Wang Qin, the four-year-old son of Pingyuan general, stayed at home and was not allowed to enter the palace because he had no title. Insiders know that this means a family banquet. Wu Jinbo and the wife of Pingyuan general are also happy to take Quercus into the palace to meet with the Empress Dowager''s grandparents and grandchildren.


    Yao''er is just over two years old, while Li''er, yu''er and are less than two years old. The food they can eat is limited. They are specially made by mother Wu. The three had a comparison together. They even dug a spoon and quickly swallowed a bowl of egg soup. Yao''er is the biggest and has won a complete victory.


    The Empress Dowager and Mrs. Qin watched and laughed.


    Fengxin is a school of light clouds and light wind. He glanced away. Even if Yao''er won, this level of is really invincible.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her heart and asked the Empress Dowager for instructions. "Empress mother, why don''t you leave some children to stay in Ci''an palace for a few days while the new year is coming?"


    Mrs. Qin had always lived in the palace with Jing Huan, but she moved a room and raised her hands in favor, "the empress''s proposal is good, and it can also make the empress''s Ci''an palace lively."


    Yao''er is more than two years old and can take care of many things by himself. Fengxin doesn''t matter.


    But the wife of Pingyuan general was a little frightened, "Quercus is naughty. I''m afraid it will disturb the quiet of the Empress Dowager." Prince Yao with Fengxin is here, but oak is not so eye-catching when she lives in the palace... And she can get close to the Empress Dowager... She is also very excited, but she should be polite


    The Empress Dowager naturally wanted it. "How can a boy not be naughty? The Ci''an palace of AI family hasn''t had any naughty children for a long time, so they were asked to accompany AI family for a few days. There are all mammy maids in the palace. Where do you say what disturbs the quiet? "


    Now the six palaces are too quiet. She just wants to stretch out her hand to take care of things. She has no place to stretch out, so she has to focus on the grandchildren and live a comfortable life as an ordinary old woman. Without the fear of the past, I really feel that such a day is a real good day to enjoy life... Who is willing to live the life of intrigue and mental collapse in the past? In the final analysis, she is just an ordinary old woman... So she was careless a few days ago and let Jiang huailan do things with ulterior motives, which almost implicated herself and her daughter-in-law. Fortunately, there was no danger. A few days ago, I said that my daughter-in-law personally solved the serious problem. Now I really don''t have to worry about it?


    Pingyuan general''s wife smiled and thanked, "the concubine can only thank the Empress Dowager for her younger brother."


    The Empress Dowager smiled and looked at mammy Su standing next to her. The latter understood and hurried down to arrange.


    The old lady of the Wu family, who was sitting at the same table with her, also chuckled, "the Empress Dowager is so lucky. The eldest grandson of the Wu family is still in his daughter-in-law''s belly, and I don''t know what year and month it will be before he can have a good day like this... "


    Today, the old lady of the Wu family came to Ci''an palace to chat with her in advance. She learned that Wu Jiao, the third daughter of the Wu family, was unable to enter the palace because her mother-in-law, Mrs. Anbo, died suddenly a few days ago. The Empress Dowager thought of the tragedy that Mrs. Chang''an was kicked to pieces by Jiang huailan in the palace that day. She couldn''t help sighing. Everything about the feather gate and the royal family of the previous dynasty was hidden. In the past, even the nine clans would have to be beheaded if they were not punished. The emperor and Empress of the current Dynasty are rare kindness in a hundred years, but is there really no hidden danger in ruling the country and the palace with such kindness? Will not encourage some ambitious people to play tricks behind their backs?


    However, when Mrs. Wu took Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Pingyang to give her a big gift to thank her for not pursuing her kindness, she was speechless. Morally speaking, the two are in laws after all. After all, Mrs. Chang''an is the in laws of the Queen''s family, and it is related to the face of her son and daughter-in-law. Can she question the decision of her son and daughter-in-law? Anyway, the daughter-in-law''s face always needs to be given.


    Thinking of this, she laughed, "is the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Wu family about to give birth? Are the nurse and midwife ready? This woman, giving birth is like walking through hell. Oh, by the way, AI family also heard that pingyangbo''s side wife is also pregnant? Lord Wu made great contributions and was promoted to an official position. I''m going to face the joy of being a baby again soon. How happy it is! "


    Hearing this, Mrs. Liu of Pingyang, sitting at the table next door, secretly clenched her teeth and hated it. Her eyes shot at the empress sitting in the center like an arrow. The empress also heard this and looked at her. Liu Shi immediately put on soft eyes. She really couldn''t afford to offend the nominally six women. But the queen gave her a gentle smile. She felt a little uneasy. She didn''t know what medicine was sold in the gourd of the queen who had made a hard trip to her.


    The Empress Dowager and the old lady of the Wu family on the main table talked about the marriage between Miss Wu Wu and Qingyuan''s second son.


    On hearing this, Zhuo Xi became interested. Wu Ru was the sister who showed her kindness at the Wu family at that time. How can she not pay attention? She asked, "grandma, is the fifth sister''s wedding scheduled for August? It''s a good day. It''s crisp in autumn. "


    Mrs. Wu smiled, "isn''t it? Mrs. Qingyuan said, "it''s better to marry a daughter-in-law than the Mid Autumn Festival!"


    The empress turned to Liu with a smile and asked, "mother is going to work hard to prepare the dowry of the fifth sister again! I just got some good things a few days ago. I can add makeup to my fifth sister. Mother, why don''t you come to Ning''an palace later? "


    Liu got up and bowed to answer yes, but there was no superfluous words. She didn''t show it on her face, but she was angry in her heart. When her real daughter Wu Jiao got married, although the queen added makeup, she quietly sent it to the Wu family. Now it''s her turn to get married. She said she wanted to add makeup in front of everyone. Isn''t it obvious that she would treat the common daughter badly in the dowry?


    Mrs. Qingyuan on the other table listened, but smiled and said to her companion, "Oh, the Queen''s makeup will be the treasure at the bottom of our box in the future! This is a great honor! "


    One man said, "isn''t that right? Previously, Mrs. Chang''an Bo said that when the third miss of the Wu family married to Chang''an Bo''s house, the queen gave a pair of red coral trees and a set of ruby red gold head, which are the latest treasures that Feiyu drunken Yuxuan can''t grab! How can the Queen''s goods be ordinary? "


    Mrs. Qingyuan smiled again, "Oh, should I thank the future daughter-in-law for her makeup?"


    The other side laughed, "you''d better wait until your son gets married and get close to the queen!"


    This word spread to Liu''s ears. Liu''s excited spirit, on the pretext of going to the official room, got up and went to the side hall to wait.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised at Liu''s sudden enlightenment at the moment. She really thought it would be equal to after the banquet.


    So a moment later, she went to the official room with Fengxin in her arms.


    The more Liu thought about it, the more cold sweat came from his forehead.


    When she thought of thanking the Empress Dowager after the old lady, the Empress Dowager did not deny it, which showed that the rumor that Mrs. Chang''an Bo assassinated the Empress Dowager was true. The empress dowager, as a victim, even if there was no anger of thunder, the emperor could not easily forgive Chang''an Bo''s house. Not to mention the great crime of killing the nine ethnic groups, at least one charge of lax governance in Chang''an Bo''s house can''t escape. Except for the news that his daughter met the sudden death of Mrs. chang''anbo, nothing happened and the whole family was fine. Then the only explanation is that the queen stepped in. She successfully persuaded the emperor and the Empress Dowager not to pursue the matter.

 Chapter 274

    It is not only related to the life of her daughter, but also related to the lives of hundreds of people in her mother-in-law''s family and the whole family.


    How kind is this?!


    No matter what the empress has done to respond to her, she can no longer have resentment!


    At the side hall, Feng Xin didn''t understand what had happened.


    Liu Shi saw them kneel down and gave a big gift, "my concubine thanked the queen for her kindness."


    This little girl refers to Wu Jiao or Wu Ru. What kind of great kindness is da en? Zhuo Xi understood in her heart and didn''t say anything. She just said in a warm voice, "mother, you''re welcome. Please get up."


    Liu still knocked three heads in fear, "my concubine is stupid. Jiao''er still doesn''t know that she is protected by her mother. It''s a capital crime. Please forgive me. "


    Zhuo Xi helped her up with her own hands, "it''s really strange for mother to say so. In any case, the third and fifth sisters, like the eldest brother and sister-in-law, are close relatives of the palace. Why should the palace not protect them? The palace just wants to see that everyone close to you can be safe and smooth. " She stressed the words "big brother and sister-in-law" heavily.


    Liu finally understood. Was it really because he wanted to take a concubine for Wu Xing and concealed Peng''s pregnancy? She regretted at the thought of the two wolves who had entered the house, but she couldn''t help but express her feelings in the future: "I would like to follow the instructions of the empress. Bixuan has discussed with her concubine that when the child in her womb turns one year old, they will go out and start their own house. Xinger is now a three life official, and it is natural for him to start a government and stand on his own. " When the eldest son was separated, Peng must have been angry with the empress, otherwise he wouldn''t come to him. If I stumble again, I don''t know what bitter fruit I will have to eat. What''s more, according to the current fortune of the eldest son, I''m afraid he will have the opportunity to be a marquis in the future. This is a son he can''t control. Why do you have to confront him? She originally wanted to pinch her daughter-in-law to pinch her eldest son, but Peng obviously wasn''t her initiative. Peng''s management in the long room was watertight. Her mother-in-law, who had been in charge of the family for nearly 20 years, was stunned and couldn''t get in. Instead, she attracted coquettish, which was really regretful.


    Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction and asked people to move a small round table and three small stools.


    Soon the maid of honor moved the tables and stools to put them away.


    Zhuo Xi sat down with Feng Xin first, then pointed to the small stool in front of the case and motioned Liu to sit down.


    Liu Shi is a little confused. I don''t know which one she did.


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "mother, don''t worry. There are no outsiders here. Dr. Hong gave you a prescription. How many did you eat? "


    Liu''s old face turned red and replied carefully, "I only ate three posts. I think I''ll ask Dr. Hong to have a look in years..."


    Zhuo Xi said, "the world-famous childe Fengxin is here. Does mother want her to have a look?"


    Feng Xin rolled her eyes and said coldly, "you have made me speechless. After thinking about it, she said," there''s nothing important these days. Or, after the new year, how about starting after the Lantern Festival? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at Liu Shi.


    Liu was eager to get as fast as possible. He nodded again and again, "no problem! I don''t know where to find the Phoenix doctor? "


    Zhuo Xi said, "she is now living in the former Marquis of Guang''an. Go there to find her then."


    Liu was so grateful that she almost cried. She thought of her indifference to the queen after Peng''s pregnancy. She really shouldn''t have given her a gift to thank her, but Zhuo Xi stopped her.


    The three returned to the banquet hall one after another. Everyone had almost eaten.


    Zhuo Xi announced the end of the banquet. Please move to the star picking building to watch the stars. He also asked people to ask about the banquet invitation at the side of Zichen hall.


    Jing Yuan really cooperated. When they walked slowly to the West Star picking building, the male guests also boarded the East building one after another.


    Along the way, some people talked about the fireworks made by Miss Lin Lang last year, but at the same time, some people didn''t know from where that Miss Lin Lang had returned to her hometown, and no one knew the secret method of making fireworks. Draw a sigh.


    People gradually put out their mind to see the fireworks and honestly pointed out the stars in the sky.


    After a while, a man exclaimed, "look, a flying star!"


    Another voice excited, "it''s a flying star!"


    "Hey, here comes another one!"


    "Wow! Really, look over there, there''s another one! "


    "Why are there so many flying stars today?"


    "Come, come, three more..."


    "Oh, my God! Is it the legendary "meteorite like rain"


    Someone has started screaming.


    But the next moment, a crackling sound came, and the meteor shower came. People were so frightened that they hid and found nothing but a few wisps of falling soot.


    Someone responded, "it''s fireworks!"


    Sure enough, the next moment, big red and purple flowers bloom in the air. For a long time


    Then one after another fireworks bloom in the night.


    The crowd exclaimed.


    The fireworks feast lasted an hour.


    After the last brightest and largest colorful fireworks bloom, the people are still aftertaste and have no reaction at all.


    There was silence.


    At this time, Wuhe stood high on the building wall, and his clothes sounded in the cold wind.


    It immediately attracted the attention of everyone.


    The civil and military officials in the Wuhe Dynasty shouted, "this fireworks was originally made by a girl Lin lang. before returning home, she taught the secret making skills to Yu Meng, the Queen''s cousin, as an artist. Now that the Treasury is empty, I''m willing to present this secret skill to Da Liang. It''s the emperor''s order. I''ll auction this secret skill here tonight. All the auction proceeds will go into the national treasury. All ministers, uncles, nephews and businessmen in their families can participate in the auction... "


    Although his voice was sharp, it was as loud as a bell, and the people present heard it clearly.


    It''s OK for the women''s dependents. They all listen carefully and only discuss in a low voice.


    Zhuo Xi was just speechless about the title of "artist Yu". She had mentioned to Jing Yuan that young master Yu always called him a little uncomfortable, and suggested giving him a small official post to facilitate his human relations in Beijing. Jing Yuan said, "the first craftsman is called an artist. Since young master Yu is proficient in refining skills, he will give him the post of seven grade artist." So the name of artist Yu spread. She was really speechless, but later found that they had great respect for the artist''s job and did not have the slightest contempt and contempt similar to the craftsman, so she let them go.


    The civil and military officials suddenly burst into a pot.


    After the auction organized by Zhuo Xi two years ago, this method of auction was occasionally learned by some merchants to auction some rare items. These civil and military officials are not only well-informed, but also understand what this auction means.


    Which of the officials present doesn''t hold several business channels? Otherwise, what can I eat only on that salary? Moreover, the commercial value of fireworks is not clear, at least we know it well. Some business families have inquired about the production methods since the fireworks show last year. Unexpectedly, Lin Lang himself has never been found since the 30th of the lunar new year. Those businessmen who inquired everywhere could only give up bitterly. Now the auction is held on such an occasion, that is, the emperor intends to let the ministers present pick up a leak, otherwise they should really take it out for auction. Once those century old business families sell, where will they have their share?


    For a time, the crowd was boiling, and some business strength at home were eager to try. Some are not strong enough, and even joined several companies to participate together.

 Chapter 275

    A quarter of an hour later, Wuhe spoke again, "you''ve seen all the products. The cost is surprisingly low. According to the emperor''s will, the on-site auction begins. "


    He wiped the sweat on his forehead. He only went to the scene to observe such an auction with king Xianwen at that time. But that time, he patronized around the guard. Where did he listen carefully to the host''s lines? However, he was kicked by the emperor when he was pleading, and there was no other candidate around him, so he had to bite the bullet.


    Fortunately, the little eunuch was waiting for the record with a silk notebook and charcoal pen.


    All the civil and military officials present are acquaintances. It doesn''t matter if they don''t have a number plate. Just look at the price quoted by who.


    Wuhe cleared his voice and began to say loudly, "the starting price is 500 Liang silver."


    Many people gasped. Especially women''s dependents. Ordinary people can live for several months with five Liang silver. Ordinary people may not earn so much in their whole life. This is just the material formula and production technology. The starting price is 500 liang?


    After a moment of silence, someone raised his hand and offered, "six hundred Liang!"


    Wuhe repeated, "bid Lord Wang six hundred Liang."


    "A thousand Liang."


    "Lord Shi offered a thousand Liang!"


    "Twelve hundred Liang."


    "Lord Xi offered 1200 Liang!"


    "Eighteen hundred Liang!"


    "Lord Li offered eighteen hundred Liang!"


    "Two thousand Liang!"


    "Lord Gongsun offered two thousand Liang!"


    At the back of Wuhe, there was no time to repeat, and someone then raised the price.


    The quotation went all the way up to 5000 Liang.


    The women were stunned.


    The last person reported "6502!"


    "Lord Wu reported 6502!" Wuhe hurriedly repeated it again. Don''t let the little eunuchs remember wrong.


    The audience was silent.


    Wuhe glanced around and shouted, "Lord Wu offered 6502. Is there anything higher? Six thousand five hundred taels first -- "


    They were waiting for him to make a final decision, but they saw that a thin figure hurried to the five rivers and whispered a few words in his ear.


    He looked up and said in a bright voice, "the Emperor... The emperor has ordered that the formula secret skill of this auction is regarded as a one-time buyout, and no second company will have this secret skill in the future. At the same time, fireworks are dangerous and are controlled goods. The merchant obtained from this auction is the only legitimate manufacturer of the whole Daliang. Anyone who violates the private system will be severely punished. "


    Another thunderbolt hit everyone on the head.


    The pause of the five rivers just made people realize that it must be the will of the queen. The figure just now was recognized as the aunt of the Spring Festival Gala around the empress. This reveals at least three information: first, the queen is not satisfied with the auction price just now. If the queen is not satisfied, it means that the emperor is not satisfied. Second, the so-called Yu artist is the cousin of the empress. It is likely that this secret skill is also made by her. Third, if, as Wuhe said, the auction is a one-time buyout and has obtained the only manufacturing qualification in China, it means that all businesses have to find this one to buy this commodity. In this way, the bidding price of more than 5000 liang of silver is simply too cheap.


    There was only a moment of silence. Before the five rivers shouted, someone immediately bid up the price: "eight thousand Liang!"


    "Nine thousand Liang!"


    "Fifteen thousand Liang!"


    "Twenty thousand Liang!"


    ¡­¡­


    The price soared all the way, and at the end, "298000 Liang!"


    The women''s dependents have developed various dizziness symptoms.


    Officials are either excited or angry. Excited by this unprecedented high price auction, angry at those officials who can afford high prices... I really want the emperor to find out how these people came from?!


    Only the emperor and the queen were very calm.


    Of course, there are five rivers, trying to report shocking data in a calm tone: "Lord Wu paid 299000 Liang! Is there anything higher? "


    Plus, it''s close to 300000 Liang! In addition to the Wu family, which merchant is so rich and powerful?


    Wu Sheng was calm.


    Everyone knows that his family has been doing business for generations. Only in his generation did he get the favor of the current emperor, the former Duke of Guang''an, and was recommended to the Ministry of punishment. The family has such strength, which is well known in the world. It is not afraid of being impeached.


    Three times later, Wuhe slapped on the brick wall. Because he was too excited, the wall brick was photographed with a palm print.


    This palm print is simply a mark of history.


    Even a rootless person like him can feel that Daliang is facing the starting point of a new era.


    Zhuo Xi on the West Building sighed secretly. As expected, he was still the first merchant in Kyoto and had strength. Nearly three hundred thousand taels! So I took a recipe for fireworks... What about firecrackers in the future? The price is more close to the people and the use is wider. Do you want to take 600000 liang? What else perfume, glaze lamp... If everything is monopolized auction... She rubbed her hands in the dark, as if she saw the white flower flowing into the everfount under her bed.


    Others were also stunned and stood beside Zhuo Xi, almost speechless with excitement and shock.


    The crowd gradually dispersed in shock.


    The Empress Dowager also looked like she couldn''t believe it. She grabbed mammy Su''s hand and asked eagerly, "did you hear me wrong? It''s 299000 liang?" In just half an hour, the Treasury had nearly 300000 receipts?


    Mother Su firmly held her hand and said in a trembling voice, "yes, you heard right. It''s 299000 Liang indeed."


    I don''t know how to look up to the queen.


    She helped the empress dowager, who was shocked but could not return to God, slowly down the stairs and back to Ci''an palace.


    Zhuo Xi stood on the tall building and kept waving goodbye to those who looked up to her.


    On the other side of the East Building, the officials scattered faster.


    On the surface, the reunification of the five countries is the restoration of the territory of the former Yudian country. God guns, bombs, iron, copper and money are an important task of national politics. Ordinary officials enjoy the benefits brought by these changes in addition to playing their due role in the operation of the state machine. After two years of promotion, the farm implements and tools declared by the empress to the Ministry of work through Kou anling two years ago are penetrating into people''s lives. The new buildings are obviously more comfortable than the original yellow mud thatched houses. These people can only watch them spend money to buy convenience. Now, such a big cake falls from the sky. Anyone who has the ability can participate in a small piece. Although the production right is controlled by the Wu family, if such a thing can be exported to Daliang States, I''m afraid it''s not dangerous with the strength of the Wu family. Can your family participate? How to participate? Does this mean that a new era has opened? How do they seize the opportunity to seek more benefits for the family? It''s important to go home and discuss with the owner


    Seeing everything, Fengxin went downstairs and found her husband''s room. She only said in a low voice, "if it''s really a cool queen, she will win the world." They did well. Jianrong was even more excited and remembered the military academy he had visited with Jianyi the other day


    In an instant, the roofs of both buildings were empty.


    Jing Yuan jumped directly from the East building to the West Building and grabbed Zhuo Xi''s waist.


    Zhuo Xi proudly asked him for praise, "praise me, praise me, praise me! Am I great? "


    He whispered in her ear and asked with a salivating expression, "what other secret skills and tricks do you teach?"


    Zhuo Xi pushed him with a smile, "do you think these secret skills can be so valuable?"


    "It''s worth money. Just take it out." He coaxed her.


    She smiled, "I won''t take it out. Do you want to think I''m a cash cow?"


    "No, you are my treasure. You are my treasure." He held her tightly in his arms.


    Suddenly, Zhuo Xi looked around with a guilty heart and found that all the palace people around him were missing.


    She was so playful that she stretched out the tip of her right index finger and wiped oil on his jade smooth face, "am I a treasure? Then why were you so generous that day? Fortunately, you haven''t been angry for too long, otherwise the three hundred thousand taels of silver won''t reach your treasury! "


    With a long sigh, he let her go, made a deep bow and said, "madam, I''m wrong for my husband. I''ll go back and wash my wife''s hair tonight! " I really have to bow my head. It''s only one night, and 10% of the annual revenue of the National Treasury is in hand


    Zhuo Xi proudly raised her head, stretched out her right hand and said, "Xiaoyuanzi!"


    "Order!" He immediately reached out and held her hand.


    "Let''s go! Go back to the palace! "


    "De ~ ~" he shouted cooperatively and scared the five rivers that were secretly watching their every move and ready to wait for orders. They almost knelt.


    The two returned to the bathroom of Ning''an palace. Zhuo Xi finally enjoyed the feeling of being served by the emperor to wash her hair


    And definitely not only wash your hair, but also wash your whole body several times


    Xiaoyu''er and Yigan xiaofart children have long been brought to Ci''an Palace by their mothers. This is destined to be an unforgettable New Year''s Eve


    The next day is new year''s day.


    When Zhuo Xi woke up, his whole body seemed to have been run over tens of thousands of times, and there was no pain.


    She glared angrily at the well-dressed man reading by the bed.


    It''s rare not to have an early morning these days. After Jing Yuan got up early and played a set of boxing, he would lean against the bed to read a book, which is called "sleeping with him". One side is the beauty sleeping face like jade, and the other side is the self owned face like jade in the book. Neither side suffers losses.


    At first hearing his theory the day before yesterday, Zhuo Xi laughed angrily. Dare to have beauty without books or books without beauty, then you will suffer losses? Why is this man so utilitarian?


    The man received her staring eyes, turned his head and smiled at her, "wake up? Sleep a little longer. "


    She turned her body hard, lay on the bed and said impolitely, "the whole body hurts. Give me a massage."


    A chuckle came, and then a pair of big hands pressed her waist and began to press it carefully.


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes and gave a comfortable hum.


    It feels wrong to press


    Zhuo Xi wants to cry without tears. Is she leading a wolf into the house?


    A soft voice sounded, "let the little serve her and ask her to enjoy it slowly and carefully..."


    Her eyes were black, and her brain made up for his charming eyes?

 Chapter 276

    When they finally got up to freshen up and go to Ci''an palace to ask for peace, it was already half past time.


    Before I reached the Ci''an palace, I heard the sound of children playing in the palace.


    There was more popularity in the palace. Recalling the earth shaking changes around her since she met her, Jing Yuan couldn''t help shaking the catkin in her handshake.


    Zhuo Xi was closing the skirt around her neck. In this winter, deep robes look good and comfortable, but the neck can''t stop the cold wind from sneaking in. She asked people to choose the fur sent from the counties to make a scarf, but when she put on a deep robe, she was suspected of damaging her temperament. I''m tired and lazy. Those wedding suits are just concepts in my mind, not to mention designing comfortable and warm winter clothes... Forget it, wait until I have time


    Before his thoughts came back, he felt that as soon as he was warm, Jing Yuan had taken off his cloak and put it on her. She has put on her own cloak and another one. Aren''t you afraid of her dying of heat?


    She glared at him, "my neck is cold here, not on my body. Do you think I never have prickly heat?" The belt of the cloak was tied at the chin, and the neck was still empty.


    Jing Yuan''s eyes stared at the white skin under her chin tie, and his eyes were deeper and deeper.


    Zhuo Xi cautiously covered the skin and said, "you... You... Don''t mess around..."


    Jing Yuan was happy and took her hand down. "You didn''t think about it. How could I mess around?"


    He stretched out his slender fingers and untied the black tie of the cloak he had just tied.


    She was about to take a breath, but she saw him put his cloak in front of her, and tied the belt to the back of her head with his back hand.


    She petrified directly.


    This way... This way... It''s so wonderful. Do you have wood? How can she see people?


    She immediately blew her hair, "Jing Yuan! You take it off! "


    He tidied up the cloak in front of her, bit her ear and said a word.


    She immediately stopped, and the red clouds on her face suddenly rose. She dared not move, and let him lead her forward.


    Before taking a few steps, she stopped again, took his hand and asked hesitantly, "well, what if you enter the door?" You can''t always be wrapped in this cloak, can you?


    He took her shoulder and walked forward, "don''t worry! I have my own opinion. "


    She couldn''t help pinching his palm, "it''s all your fault!"


    Jing Yuan laughed loudly.


    He did not know how to look at her like this in front of her, angry and strange to play pettish, his heart was very happy.


    When they entered the Ci''an palace, they didn''t go to ask the Empress Dowager to say hello, but let someone say a word and hid in the side hall under the pretext of going to the official house.


    Jing Yuan untied her cloak and took out a box of ointment that had just been found. He dug it out with his fingers and gently applied it to the amazing bright red parts of her neck.


    She glanced at the plaster and said, "with this jade muscle ointment, the mark can be eliminated immediately?" This jade muscle ointment is a little better than ordinary ointment. It has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, but it will take at least three or two days to have an effect.


    He smiled gently and said softly, "I''m here. Natural medicine will be removed!"


    After that, he put down the plaster, rubbed the palm of his hand, and put his hot palms around her neck.


    She immediately felt a heat wrap around her whole neck.


    Then his fingertips, with a trace of warmth, gently rubbed in some places.


    But for a moment, he put down his hands, looked left and right with satisfaction, and nodded, "OK."


    What have you done with this technique?


    Zhuo Xi felt her neck discontentedly. There was no mirror, and she didn''t know if there were any traces left last night


    She had a sudden inspiration and looked at him suspiciously, "didn''t you deceive me?"


    Is there no trace from beginning to end? Did he mean to play with her? Who can press a few times to remove the purple kiss mark?


    He laughed again, took her in his arms and bit at his neck, but he didn''t dare to really bite this time


    She gave him a punch and kick to relieve her anger.


    The two finally entered the main hall of Ci''an palace and asked the Empress Dowager for peace. The Empress Dowager sat in the main seat and looked at several children playing a cork ball in the center of the hall with a smile.


    The colored ball was originally made of flexible cork found by craftsmen of Xiyan Yangsheng hall. However, cork is usually only one to two inches in diameter, so it is very difficult to find cork four inches wide. It is made by the craftsmen of Xiyan Yangsheng hall. The number of such large colored balls is very limited. When Ke min got such a rare colored ball, he wanted to send one into the palace. Cork has excellent elasticity, light and soft, and now it has become a small football for several children. Painted with colorful colors, even Xiao yu''er, who didn''t walk very smoothly, climbed around chasing the colored ball on the ground.


    The bigger oak ran around behind Xiao Yao''er, and the little short legs plopped on the ground when they couldn''t catch up. Xiao Yao''er hurried back again and pulled him up. Jing Huan next to him looked contemptuous. He moved his feet and gently turned the ball back only when Xiao yu''er kicked the ball in front of him and "ordered" him to kick the ball back.


    These children are adorable.


    No wonder the Empress Dowager stared at them.


    Zhuo Xi was also turned over by Meng. She wanted to come forward one by one and ravage them all


    The two people saluted the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager smiled and said to the four children on the ground, "Yo, your emperor and empress are coming. Why don''t you go and ask them for lucky money?"


    When xiaoyu''er was still ignorant, xiaoyao''er had rushed over and bowed to them, "I wish my uncle and aunt good health and longevity in the new year."


    He called him uncle and aunt as his mother brought him into the palace yesterday to teach him.


    Zhuo Xi was very happy. He picked up the little man and teased him and said, "if you didn''t pay New Year''s greetings to your father, mother and concubine on the first day of the new year, you wouldn''t get your father''s new year''s money!"


    Xiao Yao''er replied clearly, "my father said that my father''s will be mine in the future. But what my uncle and aunt gave me was more. "


    The Empress Dowager and the emperor laughed.


    Zhuo Xi scraped his little nose and said, "what if your father, Queen and concubine have brothers and sisters again?"


    "Then I''ll share it with my brothers and sisters! I share with them what my uncle and aunt gave me... "


    She couldn''t help kissing his little face. "Oh, why are you so cute!"


    Xiao yu''er stopped working on the ground dragon covered with a blanket and shouted and climbed over here.


    Zhuo Xi put down xiaoyao''er and asked the Spring Festival Gala behind her to hang a wordless peace card on xiaoyao''er. Then she said to him, "lucky money, you want to go to your uncle!"


    Jingyuan smiled and winked at Wuhe, and Wuhe handed a red seal.


    Jing Huan also generously came to salute, "may the country be peaceful and the people be safe in the coming year, and may the six uncles and six aunts be all right."


    Jingyuan waved his hand and Wuhe quickly handed the red seal.


    Zhuo Xi also hugged him, said "huan''er''s new year is also smooth" and tied him a jade card of nothing.


    Jing Huan bowed and said, "thank you, uncle and aunt."


    The little oak was smaller and stood there at a loss. No one told him what to call the two people in front of him.


    Zhuo Xi first went to the carpet and picked up Xiao yu''er, and then looked at Xiao yue''er, "yue''er, happy New Year! Do you know how to pay New Year''s greetings? "


    Wang Li thought for a moment, hugged his fist and bent down, learning from what Jing Huan said earlier, "may the country be peaceful and the people be safe in the coming year, and may the sixth uncle and sixth aunt have all the best."


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "Oh, it''s a pity that he learned huan''er. If he learned wrong, how could he get it?"


    Zhuo Xi kissed her two sons and stuffed them into Jing Yuan''s arms. Then she touched a jade card of nothing and tied it around Wang Li''s waist. Wuhe also hurriedly handed a red seal.


    Wang Li took Feng Hong and looked at Jing Huan and Jian Yao blankly. He found that the Feng Hong in their hands was gone. He was very confused on his face. After thinking about it, he ran to the Empress Dowager with Feng Hong, "grandma, it''s for you." Father and sister said that when there were no outsiders, they could call this kind mother-in-law "grandmother".


    The Empress Dowager laughed louder, "Oh, just you!" The Empress Dowager took him into her arms and kissed him twice before she said, "this is your lucky money! You have it all! " Then she slowly stuffed Feng Hong into his arms.


    Wang Li showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.


    Mrs. Qin also smiled.


    After lunch, Zhuo Xi and Jing Yuan returned to Ning''an palace. Xiao yu''er still lives in Ci''an palace with his mother Wu.


    Zhuo Xi said seriously, "emperor, I solemnly request to take annual leave."


    "Annual leave?" Jing Yuan was stunned. What is this annual leave?


    "It''s a year''s holiday! You see, we are as busy as dogs all year round. Why should we have a few days off to relax? "


    Jing Yuan said with a black line on his face, "think of the palace?"


    Zhuo Xi knew what he was worried about as soon as she saw his nervous expression. She and Jing Yuan bit their ears, "we might as well go on our honeymoon while our mother looks at Xiao yu''er for us?"


    He listened to her and went together. He relaxed a little. He smelled the fragrance on her. Some people got up and asked, "what''s a honeymoon?"


    "Just..." she whispered.


    He looked at her deeply and nodded after a long silence, "well, let''s see where to go... There seems to be a separate palace in Dingzhou..."


    "No, it''s too close. It''s boring. Let''s find a warm place in the South..."


    "South? Liangzhou... There seems to be nothing to play. You''ve been there, too. Why don''t you go to Zihe county? In the south of Liangzhou, it was originally a dependency of Zisang state... But it seems a little far away. It takes more than ten days on the road... "


    "Stay away! Anyway, the printing didn''t start until after the Lantern Festival. Let them wait for a few days. But is Zihe County near the sea? "


    ¡­¡­


    The two said to go and immediately asked people to pack their cars and horses.


    The next morning, after leaving a letter to the empress dowager, he left the palace and left.


    After receiving the letter, the Empress Dowager held Xiao yu''er and scolded the unscrupulous parents with a smile... Several little fart children didn''t know, so they looked at each other on the ground.

 Chapter 277

    Getting up too early in the morning, Zhuo Xi fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow on the carriage. She didn''t wake up until noon. After only half a day, the carriage had left Kyoto and drove down the official road to the south.


    Jing Yuan put down her hand, patted her ruddy cheeks because of sleep, and asked, "wake up?"


    "That''s natural. If you go to sleep again, I don''t know where the official is going to turn me?"


    "Oh, now the little lady is awake. Do you know where the king is going to turn you?" He asked with a smile.


    She was stunned. She was really... No matter how thin she was, she covered her head again. "I''ll sleep a little longer. Please wake me up when the king comes to the stronghold..."


    He asked again, "it''s nice. The little lady can serve the king well when she''s full of sleep!"


    She pulled down her thin quilt angrily. "You took six eunuchs, eight palace maids and twelve golden guards out of the door. Isn''t it enough for so many people to serve you?"


    He reached out and rubbed her messy hair. "Heaven and earth conscience, these eight palace maids and five eunuchs are all people in your Ning''an palace. Who am I bringing so many people out to serve? " In fact, he took one of the five rivers. If it wasn''t for security, he didn''t want to take one of the Jin Yuwei.


    Zhuo Xi Yusai, all right. But she only wanted to bring two people out at random. Unexpectedly, before leaving, the emperor asked several people on duty one by one. She felt that there should be no less hair combs, no less starches, no less people who can boil water, no less people who can cook food, and even no less people who can make beds... As a result, she brought out all eight palace maids and five little eunuchs at one go. I took five carriages


    Jing Yuan lowered his head, approached the tip of her nose and whispered, "however, there are some personal things. How can we do without the little lady?!"


    She pushed away his handsome face with a "bah", but a red glow climbed up his face unconsciously.


    After thinking about it, she said reluctantly, "I don''t know when you became so eloquent?" When he remembered that he was still the Marquis of Guang''an, he cherished words like gold


    He laughed with laughter, "when I met you, my beauty is now... How can I keep my mouth strong? Otherwise, wouldn''t you be bullied to the end? " He moved his body and asked in a warm voice, "are you hungry? There are no shops in front of the village and behind the village. I can only grievance the little lady to eat some dry food... "


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care, nodded, "OK, give me a drink first."


    The party walked and stopped, and finally reached Zihe County on the eleventh day.


    The weather is getting hotter and hotter in the south. When it comes to Zihe County, the party has changed into spring clothes. There is no need to lay a thick mattress to raise the brazier. Several palace maids are much more comfortable all the way to the Spring Festival Gala. When the weather gets hot, you have to draw water and bathe as soon as you arrive at the inn. Moreover, the dry food could not be stored for too long, so we had to replenish food in the inn all the way.


    Zihe county is very close to Junyao city where Jinghua is located, but it''s only two or three days away. Hou Jinghua has heard from Dingyuan there. He quietly sent someone to clean up the palace established in Zisang King''s room in Zihe County, and bought and prepared daily supplies to wait here.


    When Zhuo Xi got out of the carriage, she was surprised to see the leader who greeted them.


    It was Liu Hanzhu, Mrs. Hou of Dingyuan.


    She didn''t expect Jing Hua to send her wife to Zihe county to receive her.


    Liu led people to salute the emperor and the empress, but he didn''t say anything. He only said, "welcome master yuan and Mrs. yuan here. It''s been hard all the way..."


    The Jing surname is the state surname. It''s too eye-catching. Originally, Jing Yuan had to claim his surname Jing. Zhuo Xi laughed at the word "two vertically and horizontally", and the two agreed to take the homonym of the latter word, surnamed yuan.


    The female family members came forward to receive, but Jing Yuan couldn''t answer. Zhuo Xi quickly took two steps to help Liu, "it''s really hard for the Houfu in Dingyuan!"


    As soon as I approached, a pleasant smell came to my face.


    Liu introduced the housekeeper and servants behind her for the people from the palace.


    The housekeepers and servants looked more dignified and did not dare to neglect when they saw that even the princes and ladies were so humble and polite to the visitors.


    Then they welcomed them into the palace.


    Zhuo Xi, with her arms around Liu''s arm, whispered to her, "you smell sweet. Is it a newly developed perfume?"


    She had long known that Liu was good at making incense. In fact, this was one of the reasons why she came to the south.


    There was a trace of shame on Liu''s face. "I was idle in Junyao city. I found several flowers that I hadn''t found in Yizhou, so I tried to make some incense. Lord Hou thinks it''s good to use. I can use it at will... If my mother thinks it''s good, I''ve brought some bottles with me and asked her to taste it. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a straight face, "Birch wants to call me aunt. It''s good for you. We talk quietly like this and have to cry. Don''t you think you don''t have enough points with me? "


    Liu''s face was startled, and then some panic, "aunt... Aunt, it''s my nephew''s daughter-in-law who is not sensible. Don''t be angry..."


    "That''s good. Then you''re welcome! If you have any good smell, just bring it! Aunt, I''ll talk to you about a deal later! "


    In Liu''s surprise, the two settled down in the palace, and specially asked them to have a good sleep on the way and talk about the reception banquet tomorrow


    Liu naturally did not dare to disagree.


    But that night, the two masters quarreled in the Mufeng hall where they rested.


    This is unprecedented.


    In the eyes of the Palace officials and eunuchs accompanying them, the two masters are just like glue and harmony. If there are occasional differences, they just release air-conditioning to freeze the people around them. They have never been so angry.


    The Spring Festival Gala and Wuhe took the lead and almost rushed in.


    When their hands touched the gate, the word "get out" came from inside


    Five rivers run with tears.


    Chunnuan looked at the door in front of her, thought about it, and decided to take a risk to push the door in.


    Wuhe was so scared that she was in a cold sweat that she hurriedly pulled her aside, "Oh, my aunt chunnuan, the master is kind. Don''t mess up..."


    Chunnuan thought carefully. He was also in a cold sweat. He hurried to thank him, "thank you for the reminder of the five river supervisor."


    Since it is an unprecedented quarrel, the two masters certainly don''t want a third person to know. If they rush in rashly... It must bring disaster to the fish in the pond


    She quickly dismissed the other palace attendants, "go back to the house and have a rest! Tomorrow the Lord will call us in if he needs us! "


    The others were relieved, saluted and retreated.


    Chunnuan looked anxiously at the closed door, sighed and retreated.


    Wuhe Old God was shaking the dust in his hand and went outside the second door to sit on the ground.


    After a while, a figure angrily opened the door of the inner hall and came out.


    Wuhe quickly stood up and bowed to follow the figure.


    The next day, Zhuo Xi woke up, stretched in a good mood and called the Spring Festival Gala.


    The Spring Festival Gala came in with a worried face.


    Zhuo Xi, however, was waiting on them to dress and wash as if nothing had happened.


    Then Liu came in and said that breakfast was ready.


    Zhuo Xi went to the east room for dinner.


    Liu said humbly, "my concubine prepared it according to the habits in Kyoto. I don''t know if it suits my mother''s taste."


    Zhuo Xi saw that it was all steamed buns and steamed bread noodles. Although he was not very happy, he didn''t choose. He picked several kinds and ate two of them before he put down his chopsticks and said, "Chunxi brought by our palace is the best at cooking. If you are not sure, you can send her."


    Liu Shi hurriedly said, "how dare I send the people around my mother."


    "If you don''t even send her, what can the palace do with three meals in the future?" Zhuo Xi smiled.


    Liu realized this and quickly thanked him.


    Zhuo Xi rustled up and said, "your name is Hanzhu, isn''t it?"


    Liu nodded and replied, "how dare you worry about my mother?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "we''re going out to visit yunyin Temple later. Do you want me to call you Mrs. Hou in front of outsiders?"


    Liu Shi was stunned and carefully replied, "aunt can call my body Hanzhu."


    Zhuo Xi walked out and smiled, "don''t be too careful. We are a family. Don''t be too outspoken. "


    "Yes." Liu''s heart kept muttering. Yesterday she asked people to pay attention to the needs of Mufeng hall, but she heard people report that it seemed that the emperor had quarreled with the empress, and the Emperor didn''t return all night. Why does the queen have to visit yunyin temple as planned?


    People are too busy to get on the horse.


    Half an hour later, Liu accompanied Zhuo Xi on the carriage to yunyin temple.


    All the way, Zhuo Xi looked at the spring outside the car and sighed, "it''s still comfortable in the south! The sun is bright and the scenery is pleasant... "The point is that you don''t have to wear too thick... Your actions are much more flexible.


    Liu accompanied me to chat, "isn''t it? My nephew''s daughter-in-law was also surprised when she first arrived at Junyao city. It''s coldest here all year round, but you can''t even use a fur jacket with a shoulder. Originally, when my nephew and daughter-in-law were in Yizhou, they had to wear camisoles at least three seasons of the year. In winter, you even have to wrap two layers of fox fur. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "there are great differences in climate between the north and the south, and the species are also relatively unusual. I heard that yunyin mountain, where yunyin temple is located, stands high into the clouds. There must be many strange flowers and plants. "


    Liu covered his mouth and said with a smile, "my niece doesn''t understand herbs, but there are really many strange flowers that my niece didn''t see when she was in Yizhou." She took out two small pottery bottles from her sleeves and handed them to Zhuo Xi in both hands. "Sixth aunt, the red bottle is made by my nephew and daughter-in-law with a kind of Erythrina flower, and the blue bottle is made of a kind of Chenxi flower. If you like it, my nephew and daughter-in-law have some other fragrance in the flower shop in Junyao city. She will order someone to bring it in a few days. "


    "The six aunts are welcome." Zhuo Xi poured out a little juice from the red bottle, put it on his wrist, smelled it, poured out a little juice from the blue bottle and put it on the wrist of the other hand. Then he mixed them a little, rubbed them into Liu''s wrist and motioned her to smell them.


    After hearing this, Liu said in surprise, "my nephew and daughter-in-law have made incense for so many years, but she has never thought of mixing such two kinds of flower fragrance together. The Erythrina flowers are cold and elegant, and the Cassia flowers are strong and sweet. Such a mixture is cold and sweet. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "not only the fragrance of flowers can be mixed, but also the fragrance of some grass can be mixed. This is one of the purposes of my southbound trip. If you don''t mind the trouble, let''s move your set of incense making tools. We can consult together. "


    Liu said excitedly, "OK! Good! "

 Chapter 278

    The carriage stopped at the foot of yunyin mountain.


    Zhuo Xi got out of the carriage and took a deep breath of sweet grass before jumping out of the carriage. The accompanying wordless and Spring Festival Gala hurried forward to help.


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand and suddenly found that wordless changed into a gray white ordinary dress and joked, "Yo, wordless, this is a gorgeous transformation! Tut Tut, it''s really a person of Ning... Who changes clothes and goes out with a whole body style! Good, good, like a childe... "


    Speechless turned red and wanted to defend, "Niang... No, madam, don''t laugh at the little one again! I don''t know how many times my sister laughed when I came all the way... "


    "The Spring Festival Gala is a person with high vision. If you can be praised by her, it shows that your dress is really good!" Zhuo Xi said with a smile.


    She took the lead in walking into the mountains.


    While walking, I stared at the herbs in the mountain. For a while, I asked someone to dig the grass and for a while, I asked someone to pick the fruit


    Even Liu was infected and began to concentrate on finding flowers.


    It was almost noon when the party finally climbed to yunyin temple on the top of the mountain.


    At the gate of the temple, there was only a little monk waiting for Zhuo Xi and his party.


    Liu Shi was very strange. She had already sent someone up to say hello to the host. It is reasonable for her, Mrs. Dingyuan Hou, to come forward. The host should stand at the door and greet each other upside down.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care, but followed the little monk into the temple.


    She has never believed in the god Buddha, but she will not deliberately disrespect the god Buddha, so she symbolically folded her hands and worshipped. With the Spring Festival Gala, she asked everyone to burn incense and fuel money.


    After paying tribute to the incense, Liu asked the little monk, "is master Jingkong in the temple?"


    Xiaoheshang replied respectfully, "the host is entertaining an old friend in the backyard."


    Liu was surprised. She showed her identity. The host turned her back on her and entertained an old friend, which showed that the old friend either had a deep friendship with the host or was more noble than her. She looked at Zhuo Xi, her eyes full of suspicion.


    Zhuo Xi nodded to her with a light look, which confirmed her guess.


    Liu said to the little monk, "please ask the little master, and say that we are familiar with the distinguished guest. Can we meet?"


    The little monk answered and went away. After a while, he turned out to say hello to the host.


    Zhuo Xi motioned wordless to wait for several people outside. He and Liu entered the backyard of the temple.


    Under a ginkgo tree, a monk and a vulgar are playing chess.


    Zhuo Xi and Liu Shi approached, but they were still attentive and did not squint.


    Zhuo Xi watched for a while, and go was coming to an end.


    Suddenly, the monk threw the sunspot on the chessboard. "Benefactor yuan hasn''t seen it for several years. His chess skills are greatly improved. Lao Na''s skills are not as good as others."


    Jing FA arched his hand and said, "master, I accept!" Then he introduced them to the host, "this is Bo Jing, and this is Mrs. Hou Dingyuan."


    The host stood up and bowed to the two. "Ladies, it''s impolite for Lao Na."


    Zhuo Xi quickly returned the gift, "I''m waiting for you."


    Liu Shi was very surprised. He thought the emperor was angry and didn''t come with them, but unexpectedly he was waiting for the queen here?


    Master Jingkong led the three to one side of the tea table to sit down and asked the little monk to make tea.


    At this time, the clearance looked at Zhuo Xi, and his face looked different. "Lao Na took the liberty to ask when Mrs. yuan will arrive here?"


    Zhuo Xi was surprised. He asked a pun. What did he see?


    Liu helped to answer, "Mrs. yuan arrived in Zihe County yesterday."


    Zhuo Xi took up the tea cup and remained silent.


    Clearance glanced at Jing Yuan and knew that he was an insider, so he stopped asking questions, but smiled faintly, "it''s cool all over the world. Only with the help of different people can we quickly unify the five countries. Now, seeing that Mrs. yuan is born out of phase and is not one of our generation, we know that the rumors in the world are true. This is really my great cool blessing. "


    "Master Guo is an eminent monk in the world. We went all the way south and saw that although the people did not have the pain of destroying the country, they could hardly have the consciousness of Daliangzi people. " Zhuo Xi was surprised that yunyin temple was located in Zihe County, which was originally regarded as the land of Zisang. It was so fast that it regarded itself as a Daliang person. This kind of conceptual recognition didn''t seem to be temporary, but it seemed that he had always positioned himself as Daliang. In contrast, the people I saw along the way were like bystanders. They were unable to bear the hatred of destroying the country, and it was difficult to convince themselves that they suddenly changed their nationality, so they had to shut up about the matter.


    Jing Yuan whispered, "madam, don''t be rude!"


    Clearance is silent. I don''t want this woman to be so sharp. Is it saying that he doesn''t have the concept of honor and disgrace of his family and country? He smiled, "if you can measure it with the hearts of the people, you can understand the hearts of the people. Buddha Dharma is universal to all living beings, but if we hope that all living beings are well, how can there be national boundaries? Nowadays, it is a fact that Daliang unifies the five countries. It is better to live the present than to avoid talking. Only when the people have no resentment can the country be peaceful and the people be at peace. Isn''t that what you two want? "


    Zhuo Xi was speechless and quickly admitted his mistake. "It''s Meng Lang, master. Don''t be surprised."


    "How dare you?" Clearance did not dare to neglect it. He looked carefully at Jing Yuan. "Benefactor yuan came with his wife. I''m afraid it''s not just as simple as chatting with Lao na?"


    Jing Yuan smiled. "Master, I''ve seen a lot of people. I have some doubts in my heart. I hope you can explain something."


    "Don''t mention it, benefactor. You and I have known each other for many years, but I know everything."


    "This place is located in the south. Dozens of miles to the south is quhai. In the early years, I heard that the master came from Shandong min mountain, thousands of miles away. I don''t know why the master is so far away from home and has been stationed on the beach for decades? "


    He hung his eyes, folded his hands and read a Buddhist Chant, "I''m a monk. I''m far away from home, but I don''t know why benefactor asked?"


    Jing Yuan smiled, "in the 36th year of Zhongyong, the only Navy in the south of Yudian was killed by pirates, and more than 700 people in six coastal fishing villages in Zihe county were slaughtered and looted. But after that, the pirates were silent again. Master, where are they now? "


    Clearance''s face changed, "Amitabha, I''ve been here for more than 30 years. I''ve heard of this terrible thing. It''s a pity that it''s too late. Otherwise, Lao Na can make a few water and land Taoist fairs for them. May they ascend blissful early. "


    Liu''s face was pale.


    Zhuo Xi was also shocked, "more than 700 lives! These pirates are absolutely inhuman. Damn it! It''s quiet behind. Haven''t all these pirates been wiped out? Who can have the strength to annihilate the pirate team that can destroy a navy? " And so silent? Speaking of the back, I''m full of curiosity.


    Clearance pinched the Buddha beads in his hand, "the natural reason is clear, the cause and effect cycle, and the wicked have their own evil karma."


    A quick explanation must be a cover up. Zhuo Xi immediately heard that there was no silver in the clear space. He forgot that he had just quarreled with Jing Yuan and was in the cold war period. He sang a white face, "master, you are really kind-hearted. Such a big thing can also be explained by the cycle of cause and effect... If everything in the world is waiting for the justice to be clear, don''t we be light? I only pity the six villages along the coast, but I don''t know what kind of cause can lead to the tragic consequences of exterminating the village? " The monk obviously knew their identity, so she didn''t hide it. Therefore, the other two people heard that the husband sang and the woman followed.


    Liu was stunned. Didn''t the two fall out yesterday? It can be seen that the husband and wife quarrel at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed. She also breathed a sigh of relief.


    The corners of Jing Yuan''s mouth were faint.


    I choked on the clearance, but I didn''t care much. "The nirvana Sutra says that there is cause and effect in the third generation, and the cycle is not lost. Benefactor, how do you know that you can get here in this life, not because of your previous life? "


    Zhuo Xi doesn''t believe that she was lucky to be reborn here because she did too many good things in her last life, but Jing Yuan is here. She can''t say, "monk, aunt, I was a killer in my previous life and killed 67 people to come to this world"?


    She sneered, "it turns out that there are the causes of previous lives before there are the fruits of future generations. The master meant that for the more than 700 lives, even if they died in vain at the hands of pirates, it would only be a matter of future generations if they were compensated and rewarded. It doesn''t matter whether someone kills the pirates and avenges them in this life? "


    "The way of heaven is in the hearts of the people. If there is no cause and effect of good and evil, how can we convince all sentient beings? What''s more, every drink and peck in this world has a fixed number. How can you know the cause of the past and the fruit of the future? "


    This has a certain amount of information in it. To convince all living beings, evil will be rewarded. Is that to admit that he is the one who killed the pirate? But what does it mean to say that you have the fruit of later generations because of the causes of previous lives? The connection between my previous life and future life, that is, the advanced knowledge in my mind? Is it true that all the knowledge you need to learn from undertaking tasks in your previous life is to contribute to the great cool in this world?


    If so, I can really breathe a sigh of relief


    Jing Yuan smiled slightly, "I see. Thank you for your help."


    Zhuo Xi looked at him and saw that he no longer studied the matter deeply. Knowing that there must be something below, she stopped talking.


    Jing Yuan then turned to other things. "I haven''t seen it for many years. The yunyin temple is as prosperous as ever."


    "Thanks to the support of good men and women, we should also thank Mrs. Dingyuan Hou for her donation." He said modestly.


    Liu''s words stopped.


    Zhuo Xi gave her an encouraging look. After all, Zihe county is under the jurisdiction of Junyao city.


    She whispered, "the master is too modest. If yunyin Temple didn''t give alms every year to treat the poor people, why wouldn''t the world miss yunyin temple? Especially last year, when the Wuhe river burst its banks, many people in Zihe County suffered from the disaster. It was heard that yunyin Temple provided timely assistance, so there were no more casualties. "


    "Oh? What happened? It''s no small matter that the Wuhe river burst its banks. Why didn''t the imperial court get a memorial? " Jing Yuan said with some surprise.


    Liu glanced at the emperor and Empress and didn''t answer.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her sympathetically and replied on her behalf, "didn''t you let Hua''er handle the affairs of Junyao city? It must be that this matter did not cause a large-scale adverse impact, so he disposed of it by himself? "


    Liu glanced at her gratefully and nodded gently to express his approval.


    Jing Yuan asked, "but when was yunyin temple built? When did this tradition of charity rise? "


    Jingkong''s face changed. He didn''t believe that the 95 year old in front of him had not checked the history of yunyin temple before he came, but he didn''t know what his purpose was? With those two ladies here, he shouldn''t have come to embarrass himself


    But why does he feel like stepping into the trap of others step by step?


    However, there was nothing to hide about this problem. He decided to tell the truth, "the temple was built 38 years ago, and began to give alms from the day it was built. Anyone who goes up the mountain for help will be asked." He is the man who opened the mountain and built the temple. Who knows the whole Zihe county?


    "Good one, you can answer every request." Jing Yuan smiled, "if someone asks for the legendary Siqing sea map, but I don''t know if the master dares to agree?"

 Chapter 279

    Clearance could no longer control his face. The purple wood Buddha beads in his hand were smashed into powder by him. After a long time, he reluctantly pulled out a smile, "benefactor, why do you say that? It is said that the ten Qing charts were the secret that the pirates relied on more than 30 years ago. As benefactor said earlier, these pirates have already been killed. Why did yunyin Temple get this picture? "


    It turns out that the purpose of Jing Yuan is the chart... However, listen to this meaning, the chart is more than 30 years ago... Can it still be used? However, the sea is different from the land after all. We can''t easily transform roads or divide administrative regions... Maybe it''s feasible


    Jing Yuan said gently, "although that group of pirates has been missing for more than 30 years, in the past ten years, many Japanese thieves have gradually appeared on the vast sea and harassed coastal fishing villages. I don''t believe you haven''t heard of it. Master, be compassionate. Why hide? At present, the imperial court is about to reorganize the Navy. If it is successful, it can also bring peace to the coastal fishing villages. Why don''t you help me, master? "


    Speaking so clearly, Liu didn''t dare to interrupt, but seeing Zhuo Xi''s confused look, he quietly explained to her, "after Lord Hou took over the government affairs of Junyao City, he learned that in recent years, there have been short and ugly Japanese thieves from the sea, invading small coastal fishing villages from time to time. I usually rob some property. The year before last, I heard that a housewife and a 10-year-old girl were raped and killed, and a eldest daughter to be released from the cabinet was captured on a thief ship. Previously, Zisang had no spare power to set up a navy. After Lord Hou took over the military affairs here, he put forward suggestions to the above. "


    Zhuo Xi''s blood gushed out, "Japanese thief? How do you know they are Japanese thieves? "


    "It is said that there is a small country across the sea. The people there are short and ugly. I don''t know when the coastal people have called that country Japan. The pirate said something he didn''t understand. He should have come from the Japanese country opposite... "


    "How unreasonable!" As soon as she patted the table, she startled several people nearby. She didn''t understand where she came from.


    She suddenly found her impoliteness and quickly remedied, "I mean, those Japanese deceived people too much, crossed the sea to rob property, and raped and abducted good women! Who can bear it! Thousands of miles of dikes have collapsed in mole ants. If we continue to let this go, the village killing tragedy more than 30 years ago may be repeated again. Master, I don''t understand military affairs, but I can''t bear to see the people suffer this bad luck. If you are really compassionate, why don''t you come back to the Jianghu and work for the imperial court? " She had guessed that the person who wiped out the pirates at one stroke was probably the old monk in front of her. Since she had this strength, why did Jing Yuan only let him offer a map to the sea?


    Liu took a breath of air-conditioning.


    Jing Yuan looked at her happily. Sure enough, Xi''er still knows my heart.


    Master headroom is already sweating.


    The person in front of us has assumed the posture of being superior. Should we or should we not?


    The needles dropped suddenly in the small courtyard.


    At this time, a little monk hurriedly trotted in and whispered in the old monk''s ear.


    The old monk''s face changed slightly. He got up and arched his hands at several people. "There are some small things in Laona temple. Just go."


    "Master headroom, please." Jing Yuan smiles.


    The clearance hurried away with the little monk.


    After a while, clearance returned with several people.


    One of them limped in on a horse.


    Instead of walking towards the place where Jing Yuan was located, they looked straight and wanted to turn around and walk towards the wing room in the backyard.


    One of them inadvertently glanced here and immediately changed his face.


    That was a powerful martial monk with a stick in his hand. He immediately jumped over and turned his head to the back, "host, he was the one who broke into the Sutra pavilion just now!" He danced his stick at Jing Yuan and shouted, "bold madman! How dare you break into my Sutra Pavilion! "


    Jing Yuan picked his eyebrows, squinted at him and ignored him.


    Master headroom, covered with black lines, said to the others, "help him into the house!" Then he hurried over and knelt down, "Jingwu, don''t be rude, don''t kneel down and ask for forgiveness!"


    Jingwu jumped, "master! It was the evil thief who broke into the Sutra pavilion just now! I can see it clearly! "


    Master Jingkong shouted again, "Jingwu, put down your weapons and kneel down to apologize to the childe!"


    Jingwu was stunned, "master! I really saw him enter the Sutra Pavilion and hurt Jingqin! "


    "What are you talking about!" Master headroom has a headache.


    Jing Yuan asked, "master, when did you see me break into the Sutra pavilion?"


    "Just now, half an hour ago." Jingwu replied angrily.


    Master Jingkong breathed a sigh of relief. "Jingwu, the benefactor played chess with me here an hour ago. He didn''t leave half a step until I left. The benefactor also sat here. You can''t count if you don''t become a teacher? "


    Jingwu was half convinced and half suspicious. Looking at the master''s cautious face, he hesitated for a long time. Reluctantly, he abandoned the stick and knelt down. "I''m rude. Please forgive me."


    "Those who don''t know are innocent. Please get up quickly, two masters." Jing Yuan said in a warm voice, "master Jingkong, but I don''t know why some thieves want to break into the Sutra pavilion?"


    Jingkong said with a wry smile, "I don''t know when, someone spread a rumor that there are martial arts secrets in yunyin temple. After that, he kept curfew... Benefactor, I''m laughing this time..."


    Zhuo Xi''s heart moved and looked at Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan stood up, "since master clearance has something important to deal with, I''ll leave first. I''d like to consider the proposal just now. "


    Zhuo Xi and Liu Shi also stood up.


    Zhuo Xi looked at Jingwu with a smile, "I can see that the master is also a martial art. I''m afraid those curfews are blind and want to break into the land of dragons and tigers!"


    "Congratulations, benefactor yuan." Jingkong seemed to be eager for them to leave here as soon as possible. Without Jingwu''s answer, he hurried to say.


    Jing Yuan nodded, as if with a gentle breath, "there is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no truth to prevent thieves for a thousand days. In the chaotic city, you still have martial arts to defend yourself. You only pity the unarmed villagers... "


    There was silence behind him.


    Jing Yuan said nothing more, lifted his clothes and went out.


    Zhuo Xi took Liu''s heart and whispered, "what''s the matter with the girl to be married?"


    Liu wiped his tears. "I heard that she howled all night in the house. The next morning, when the villagers arrived, only her parents'' bodies were left in the house. My sister struggled for a long time and went..."


    There was a sound of kneeling and kowtowing behind.


    A few heads didn''t go back to the mountain.


    Liu''s heart set off a storm. Zihe county is also within the jurisdiction of Junyao city. Should I write to my husband? I don''t know if my husband knows about the formation of the water army, but since the emperor personally wants to invite master Jingkong out of the mountain, it must be a big deal. If the emperor wants to avoid them, he can naturally find another time to go up the mountain and deliberately want them to be present. Does that mean that they are going to report a letter to their husband through themselves?


    My husband once mentioned to her that the difficulty of sea disaster lies in the irregular sneak attack of Japanese thieves. Although my husband has only taken over the political and military affairs of Junyao city for less than two years, 16 sea accidents have been reported. Zihe county is only a small part of the southeast coastline. It is unrealistic to station soldiers in the whole coastal area. The best way is to set up a navy to patrol regularly. Before the destruction of Zisang, the Navy suffered heavy losses more than 30 years ago, and no one can carry the Navy flag. The coastal Navy exists in name only. After Jing Hua took over, she could not figure out the way for a moment, and she was not in a hurry to form a new army. However, with the increasing number of reports of sea disasters, especially last October, Japanese thieves landed in a small depression near Zihe County, plundering not only coastal fishing villages, but also into the county. Fortunately, my husband has heavy troops in the counties and cities under Junyao''s jurisdiction. Although there is no magic gun, the sharp arrow Changmao has changed new iron tools and stored many new incendiary bombs. The strategy of attack is insufficient, but there is more than enough to defend the city.


    However, there are only two prefectures and county officials in the coastal counties. If a navy is established, it must be reported to the imperial court for overall planning. It must be inappropriate for the husband to establish it alone.


    Thinking of her husband''s recent anxiety about this matter, she immediately dispelled her doubts. In any case, the emperor has the intention to solve the sea disaster, and my husband must be a lot more generous.


    With this reassurance in his arms, Liu was ready to get on the second carriage. The first carriage was naturally reserved for the two masters.


    Unexpectedly, the empress who walked with her raised her feet and took the lead in boarding the second carriage.


    The emperor is in the front


    The back one is for the palace maids and eunuchs


    They just sang together... Didn''t they cooperate very well?


    Now is god horse situation?


    Hesitated for a moment, he had no choice but to get on the second carriage with the queen.


    When she got into the carriage, she saw the queen leaning on her pillow as if she were asleep.


    Liu didn''t dare to talk, so he had to take out a thin quilt and gently cover it for her.


    But after waiting for a long time, the carriage didn''t mean to go forward.


    After a while, a speechless voice sounded outside, "empress, master clearance said, this is what empress left behind. Please keep it properly..."


    Zhuo Xi suddenly opened her eyes and was radiant. Where else was she just tired?


    She motioned Liu to come in.


    Liu''s heart was so cold that he couldn''t say anything. He opened the curtain and took over the burden. He looked stunned. Isn''t this a small package carrying incense money just now in the Spring Festival Gala?


    The master empress opposite is sending out a force of deterrence. She doesn''t dare to delay any more. She carefully opens it and hands it to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi only glanced at it and said, "let wordless go back. He said it was an old thing ten years ago, not lost in the palace."


    With a puzzled face, Liu opened the curtain, handed the burden back, and passed on the Queen''s original words.


    In a moment, the first carriage began to roll forward.

 Chapter 280

    Back to the Mufeng garden, Zhuo Xi walked in with her head held high.


    The Spring Festival Gala looked at Liu anxiously.


    Liu did not dare to ask more, but went down to ask for food.


    Wordless has come to tell her to ask the manager to clean up the xuanyue Garden opposite Mufeng garden.


    There is only one possibility that the Lord will live in it.


    Liu dared not neglect, and immediately sent someone to clean up. She didn''t dare to live in the palace herself. She only arranged everything before she went back to her other hospital in Zihe county. Let people stare again. If there is any trouble, go to the other hospital to report her immediately.


    I don''t want this night to be terrible.


    The queen lives in Mufeng garden in the East, and the emperor lives in xuanyue garden in the West.


    The two are irrelevant.


    The whole quarrel was as calm as the water last night. But it made all the accompanying palace maids, eunuchs and bodyguards feel cold to the bone.


    Because everyone remembered the months of the post imperialist cold war last year.


    It''s like a few months when you can make your scalp numb.


    I thought it was a good job to go out with the empress. Who would know that such a thing could happen again?


    As a result, the next day, a carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.


    A woman dressed up to be rich and dignified walked into xuanyue garden with her head held high.


    The accompanying mammy commanded the maids to move all their luggage into xuanyue garden.


    And with the emperor''s acquiescence, the woman was called "Mrs. Yao".


    Now the whole palace is fried.


    Everyone knows that the emperor''s attitude towards the queen was simply holding it in his hand for fear of falling and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting. The two people had a quarrel, and there was a Mrs. Yao. And Mrs. Yao doesn''t seem to be a new woman, but she seems to have been born and raised.


    Previously, the concubines of the six palaces had not clearly marked out the level after changing the country name in Daliang. Because the empress has always been the only one in the emperor''s harem, the empress is unwilling and the emperor does not urge, so the hierarchy of concubines has been shelved.


    Later, the emperor promulgated monogamy, and no one mentioned it so without eyes.


    Therefore, the title of "madam" was used by the concubines before the royal family of the kingdom of Wuliang?


    Besides, if Mrs. Yao had been born, she might have an old relationship with the emperor. If you had an old relationship and had a prince for the emperor, it is understandable that you were brought back after the promulgation of monogamy.


    Such speculation generally blew through all the maids and eunuchs in the palace.


    So the fierce quarrel between the two masters on the night they arrived at the palace was also related to Mrs. Yao?


    Even the maids who served Chunqing in the Spring Festival Gala couldn''t help believing it.


    However, the empress still lives in Mufeng garden alone. She has only been accompanied by Mrs. Liu of Dingyuan for several days, and the emperor is no longer seen.


    In the xuanyue garden, the sound of silk and bamboo pipe music and faint laughter often sounded.


    A few days later, the Spring Festival Gala inevitably appeared worried, and the words also brought some sound of advice.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care.


    On this day, she also made an appointment with Mrs. Liu of Dingyuan hou to listen to the teahouse play. A few days ago, Liu recommended the local Xiang opera of Zisang county to her, which seemed very interesting.


    They sat down in the private room on the second floor of the teahouse. The Spring Festival Gala immediately changed into a special tea set for Zhuo Xi. Soon, people from the troupe brought the play and asked them to order it.


    This is a drama club called Baolian class. The leader of the class was very impressed to see their temperament and clothes, so he took the play.


    "Cao min Chen jiuying, meet two dignitaries."


    Zhuo Xi frowned.


    She just came out to relax and didn''t want to look at those palace people with sad faces in the palace. And she won''t stay here long. She doesn''t have the mood to know others at all. A few days ago, the wives of a group of small officials, such as Zihe county magistrate and county Cheng, who came to hear the wind, got the news and wanted to visit. They were blocked by Liu''s use. Yu Gong, what''s the meaning of knowing the seven life officials'' wives after she is a country? In private, she is out for tourism and leisure. Why do you know these irrelevant people?


    At present, although the leader of Chen''s group has respectful eyebrows and eyes and doesn''t dare to glance at them, he knows at a glance that he is used to dealing with dignitaries and dignitaries.


    Seeing that she was not worried about her face, Liu took the woodcut play book and read it softly, "flying frost in June, Chen Wuniang, An''an looking for her mother, three family blessings... Or three family blessings! Mr. Chen has worked hard. " Other dramas are sad and desolate, or choose a lively and festive one.


    "San Jia Fu" is a festive play and Zhang xiudan''s specialty of Baolian society. Madam Hou has a good eye. " Chen jiuying obviously knew Liu, but he didn''t say much. After a compliment, he went out.


    Liu quietly explained to Zhuo Xi, "Zhang xiudan is the head Huadan of Baolian club. In fact, I think he is the best at singing Chen Sanwu Niang. But Chen Sanwu''s mother was so bitter that she couldn''t help wiping her tears. Three family photos is better. Team leader Chen was still in Junyao city last month. It is said that he had been in tengju County before, and only came to the south for more than half a year. I heard it twice when I was in Junyao city... "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her with a smile.


    Liu was a little confused, "sixth aunt? What? " She unconsciously touched her face. Is there nothing on her face?


    Zhuo Xi took a sip of tea, "it seems that you have a good life in Junyao city these days. Birch, how is he treating you? "


    A touch of red clouds flew onto Liu''s face. The two masters quarreled on the night when they arrived in Zihe county. Where did she dare to mention the matter between her and Jing Hua? When she asked this question, she didn''t give a good answer. She could only think about it with a red face and say, "Hou ye, he is very nice."


    "I still remember that when you entered the palace on the second day of your marriage, thank you. You didn''t even dare to lift your head. Your voice trembled when you gave orders to the servants when you praised the palace people. Now, seeing that you are generous and moderate, I really feel that this marriage is very good, very good. "


    She knew that their marriage was based on the strange eyes of many people. She saw the little daughter-in-law''s lack of self-confidence when she just got married. Unexpectedly, she saw the little daughter-in-law again a year later. It was obvious that she was full of self-confidence and handy in dealing with human accidents. Even the official wives were perfectly capable of fighting with her.


    Liu still blushed and said angrily, "six aunts! Don''t make fun of me... Lord Hou, he has been busy taking over the earth thunder family all year... He almost went to make up with himself... "


    Zhuo Xi spewed out a mouthful of tea, "what are you talking about?!" Jing Hua takes herself to make up? She immediately asked with a smile, "come on, gossip. Is it that any woman of the tulei nationality has a crush on him and wants to recruit him?"


    She was originally a joke. Unexpectedly, Liu''s eyes widened, "aunt, it''s amazing!"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, "no? Is that true? " But looking at Liu''s look, the tulei family''s plan is probably in vain.


    Liu ran through the story with embarrassment.


    The tulei people occupied three of the six cities of Junyao, in which the patriarch enjoyed high prestige. Originally, the government existed in name only in these three cities. After Jing Hua took over, he airborne three government officials and soldiers. The sudden intervention of the government in the administration of the city will inevitably lead to the resistance and resistance of the tulei people. He had to talk to the patriarch himself. Unexpectedly, several times back and forth, the patriarch''s daughter asked Jing Hua to promise each other


    At this point, Liu obviously began to be a little excited, lowered his voice and said, "aunt, you don''t know that this tulei woman is a walking marriage system. She can be polygamous, but she doesn''t have polygamy. Women are the masters of the family. If a man behaves badly, a woman can divorce him... It''s really interesting. It is said that in Zhengquan County, where the tulei nationality is located, all the women who go out to do business and earn money are women, while men stay at home with their children... "


    What did Zhuo Xi not see in his previous life? There was no difference. He just smiled and asked, "have you been to Zhengquan county?"


    "No! The Marquis won''t let me go! What do you say? I''m afraid I''ll be influenced by them... "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "the world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders. It''s possible to compile their stories into plays. It''s estimated that they can spread all over the country... "


    "That''s a good idea! I''ll go back and talk to leader Chen. "


    "How does the patriarch''s daughter look?" Zhuo Xi asked.


    "I don''t know! However, after hearing the request from the head of the tulei nationality, the Marquis was so frightened that he immediately went back to his house and was "ill" for seven days. Seven days later, the monogamy decree issued by the emperor came from Kyoto City. Then he took a copy of the official document and turned down the head of the tulei nationality... "


    Zhuo Xi laughed, "it''s really a thrilling seven days!" The smile was full of ridicule.


    Liu Shi was stunned and immediately understood. He couldn''t help blushing.


    Soon, the gongs and drums on the stage on the first floor were thumping, and the "three family photos" opened.


    Looking down from the second floor of the room, they just saw several people dancing their waist gracefully on the platform in the middle of the lobby on the first floor. The first act is that the youngest daughter of the Wang family is being molested by Playboys.


    Liu Shi introduced at the right time, "the young woman in jujube dress in the middle is Zhang xiudan''s appearance."


    Zhuo Xi looked at it carefully. Sure enough, she had clear eyes and a good skin bag.


    Only two words, a sharp voice came from the next room, "how is the three family photos?"? Isn''t it "Chen Wu Niang" ordered? "


    Someone whispered, "maidservant, go and ask."


    Soon, the leader of team Chen nodded and bowed in to explain, "... The first performance of" three family blessings "was over and immediately appeared in" Chen Wuniang "


    The sharp voice said, "Miss Ben is going to listen to Chen Wuniang! You, now, immediately let Zhang xiudan change her makeup and go on stage! "


    Leader Chen said in a low voice, "Miss Liang... Indeed, a guest ordered the" three family photos "first... Now it''s also singing... It''s better to sing later..."


    "What?! You told Miss ben to wait?! How proud are you to keep Miss Ben waiting? "


    "It''s really... You see, it''s already singing... It also affects others, isn''t it..."


    "Affect others? Are you not afraid to affect Miss Ben? "


    "Miss Liang, I''m really sorry. You see, on your birthday next month, if Baolian club is lucky to be able to sing at the house, Baolian club won''t take any money..." class leader Chen proposed a compromise.

 Chapter 281

    "What? I''m afraid miss Ben can''t afford the reward?! The singing meeting will be exempted. Otherwise, when the end comes, let Zhang xiudan come here and sing a few songs for Miss Ben! "


    "This... This... Everyone Zhang has been cold these two days. He has done his best to be on stage..."


    Liu Shi listened to his anger in the next room and whispered to Zhuo Xi, "Zhang xiudan is also a famous actor. If she is like this, doesn''t she regard him as a singer?" For famous actors, there must be a sense of humiliation.


    Zhuo Xi was a little impressed by the leader of the group Chen. He was really used to dealing with such affairs. He reacted quickly and divided the weight. For this reason, he didn''t dare to expose the identity of Mrs. Dingyuan Hou.


    "In the final analysis, you just make me Miss Chen Wuniang today, don''t you?! Yes! Let Miss Ben come and see if the person who has the face to rob the play ordered by Miss Ben is hiding here! " Before the words fell, the door of Zhuo Xi''s box was kicked open, and a girl dressed up appeared at the door, "Yo, it seems that the two ladies are not local? I say, how can anyone dare to rob Miss Ben''s eyes at this time! "


    She has been going to this teahouse for a month, and the next morning she will order "Chen Wu Niang". Anyone who knows will not touch her at this time.


    Chen jiuying bowed to zhuoxi and Liu in embarrassment.


    The Spring Festival Gala stopped, "Miss, do you understand politeness? Did you say hello like this? "


    "Miss Ben still teaches with you?!" Miss Liang slapped her with the a slap, stretched out her hand and pushed her behind her.


    Miss Liang had just stepped into the threshold with one foot, but the other foot hadn''t come in yet. She pushed her so much that she couldn''t step back, so she leaned back.


    Chen jiuying was close to her, but he kept in mind the truth that "men and women are not close to each other" and turned sideways. Miss Liang''s maid was far away. When she saw that she rushed up, she only fished a corner of her clothes. She saw Miss Liang''s head hit the ground with a bang.


    Her tears of pain came out immediately, but she didn''t cry. She just stood up with the help of the maid. After getting up, he just hit the maid in the face with a slap of his backhand, "dead girl, why didn''t you come and help me earlier?"


    The maid immediately had five finger prints on her face. She didn''t dare to move or say anything, but her eyes gradually turned red.


    Zhuo Xi was not interested in this kind of number. She watched the Spring Festival Gala and motioned her to close the door.


    The door of the box is facing the outer corridor, and the wide opening of the window is separated by yarn, but it is facing the big stage under the hall.


    The Spring Festival Gala opened her hand to close the door, but Miss Liang stepped in again and asked, "Miss Ben wants to listen to Chen Wuniang!"! You quickly cancelled the show you ordered and asked team leader Chen to change the venue! "


    Liu was so angry that he smiled, "why?"


    "Just because I''m Miss Liang!"


    "Which onion is the Liang family?" Liu Shi showed no mercy.


    Miss Liang''s face was green and red for a while. Suddenly she seemed to think of something. She came close and said, "Miss Ben knows. Are you the wife of the neighboring county? Did you come here to see everyone Zhang secretly? You don''t know that the Liang family doesn''t blame you. In this way, if you let the leader of class Chen change into Chen Wuniang, you will know how charming and charming everyone Zhang is... "


    Chen couldn''t listen any longer and interrupted Miss Liang''s words, "Miss Liang, Baolian society has really offended. Although the Baolian club has the rules of accepting guests to order plays, it doesn''t start the show immediately... Everyone Zhang has to talk about some rules, doesn''t he? "


    "What are the rules? Didn''t you see Mrs. Zhang xiudan coming? Or he has a nice little white face. Who is impatient to come to this broken teahouse to hold your court? "


    Leader Chen didn''t expect her to be so open and ridiculed. For a moment, she didn''t know how to fight back.


    Liu Shi was also embarrassed and didn''t know what to say.


    "Oh......" Zhuo Xi sighed for a long time. Liu was still too tender, but he just lowered his head and looked at the tea in the cup. "Look at you, you''re still a girl who hasn''t come out of the cabinet. How can you say ''little white face''? Food color and sex. Men are lecherous, so are women. I just don''t know if the girl has ever been engaged? Does the family know the girl''s behavior? Or is your reputation known all over purple and county? So that no one cares? "


    Miss Liang''s family was trampled on the pain and rushed over with open teeth and claws. She was about to grab Zhuo Xi''s face, "you fierce woman! Miss Ben kindly invited you to the play. You curse me?! "


    At this time, Liu no longer dared to stand idly by and stood in front of Zhuo Xi. Miss Liang''s right hand poked Liu''s shoulder. The Spring Festival Gala immediately came forward to catch her wrist and twisted her backhand. The other hand "snapped" on her face, "how dare you move!" The Spring Festival Gala shouted.


    Miss Liang''s eyes were red. "... you... You wait for me..." she turned her head and shouted, "magpie, don''t go and call brother!"


    The magpie answered.


    Leader Chen saw that cold sweat was coming out.


    The Spring Festival Gala let go of her hand and advised, "girl, I think you''d better go back first."


    When Miss Liang saw that she was dressed up as a maid in the Spring Festival Gala, she guessed that she was just a servant, and said angrily, "what are you? How dare you shout three or four in front of Miss Ben? "


    Zhuo Xi said coldly, "little girl, I advise you not to ask for hardship here. Go home quickly."


    "I ask for trouble? When my brother comes, you will know what it means to ask for hardship. "


    Leader Chen quickly came forward and bowed, "madam, you''d better avoid it first."


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows and looked at him, "what''s the matter?"


    He looked at Miss Liang standing on the side with her head held high. "His brother, his martial arts are not weak." If he does come, the three ladies who seem powerless will suffer. Although they look dignified, they can''t do anything wrong in this teahouse. To clean up the Liang family, don''t you have a chance in the future?


    As soon as the voice fell, a figure flew directly outside the door with a whoosh.


    It can be seen that the lightness skill of the visitor is not weak.


    As soon as Miss Liang saw someone coming, she immediately came forward and took his arm. "Brother, these two ladies don''t know where they came from. They not only robbed me of the show, but also asked someone to beat me. Sob, please avenge me."


    The young master of the Liang family pointed a finger on her forehead. "He asked you to go out and bring some thugs. Why didn''t you bring them today?"


    "Didn''t I know you were downstairs?" Miss Liang said coquettishly, "what thugs do you need where you are?"


    The young master of the Liang family patted her on the back of her hand, took a step forward and said, "ladies, dare to make trouble on my territory. Why, do you have to have an explanation? "


    "Oh, what do you want to say?"


    "Easy, how can you bully my sister, how can you make her double bully back! And you bumped into him today. Kowtow and apologize to me. "


    "What?! Want us to kowtow and apologize? I''m afraid you can''t afford it! " I can''t help it this time.


    "Hahaha!..." The young master of the Liang family laughed, "is there anything else in the world that I can''t stand? Don''t say you are two ladies, even the empress in the palace. You have to kowtow and apologize to me today! "


    Liu Shi was shocked and turned pale.


    Zhuo Xi flashed up and slapped him, then shook her hand and asked him slowly, "what if we don''t?"


    The young master of the Liang family was furious, "you! Then let me show you how hard the young master''s fist is! Uncle, there is no example of not hitting women! You look like the wife of the tulei nationality who can be the master of the country. Since you can be the master of the country, you can naturally put things on the outside! " With that, the young master of the Liang family has greeted him with a fist. Zhuo Xi opened Liu''s hand and handed it over to him. However, in a few moments, she had slapped him in the face.


    Zhuo Xi hasn''t done it for a long time. Although the young man has a little tripod Kung Fu and can bully in Zihe County, he still doesn''t see enough in front of her. But in a few rounds, he cut his hand and threw it on the ground.


    Zhuo Xi clapped her hands and said disgustedly, "this kind of Kung Fu is also meaningful and domineering?"


    Chen Ban''s opinion was greatly relieved.


    Miss Liang woke up and rushed forward, "brother, brother, are you okay?" She never dreamed that his brother would one day eat such a flat.


    The young master of the Liang family''s face was full of humiliation and anger. He wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and shouted out, "come in and take them down!"


    A group of people came and blocked the door of a small private room.


    Liu was frightened, but he stood in front of Zhuo Xi for the first time. "What do you want to do?" She knew that the empress had martial arts skills, but there were so many people, she was afraid of a mistake.


    Zhuo Xi made a gesture to stop the dark Wei Hua Yan from jumping out.


    She stood up in her spare time and said, "watch Mrs. Liu for the Spring Festival Gala."


    The Spring Festival Gala quickly pulled Liu back. She knows that the empress has martial arts to defend herself.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "if you want to bully less with more, let''s go together. It takes too much time to come one by one. "


    She took the lead in catching the person standing in front.


    Although these more than 20 people are numerous, in her opinion, they are all HuaQuan and embroidered legs and have no combat effectiveness.


    At first, the man was caught by her and fell to the ground. Immediately, "ouch ouch" couldn''t stand the pain and rolled on the ground.


    The people in the back rushed up and were all beaten on the ground by Zhuo Xi''s left fist and right leg.


    Zhuo Xi played with great ease. Liu Shi was thrilled, but she was very happy at the Spring Festival Gala - she felt that the empress should take this opportunity to send out all the evil spirits she had cheated in the palace a few days ago, which was the good news for them as palace eunuchs.


    The Liang brothers and sisters looked silly, trembled and pointed at her and said, "you, you..."


    Zhuo Xi sipped her broken hair and said gently, "tell me, what''s the origin of your family?"


    Hearing this, the young master of the Liang family straightened his chest again, "so that you can know who you have provoked! My father is the magistrate of Zihe county. If you have the courage to report your name, where do you live? " The county magistrate is the head of the county. The young master of the Liang family also knows a little martial arts. No one dares to provoke him in Zihe county.


    Zhuo Xi glanced at Liu and motioned her to report the address.


    Liu Shi looked at the two brothers and sisters who didn''t know the heaven and earth, "listen..." it''s just a county magistrate. It''s really a fox and a fake wolf, but he doesn''t know that the real tiger is here


    After she reported the address of the other hospital, Zhuo Xi waved and said, "you can go."


    A group of people limped out of the door.


    Du jiuying wanted to stop talking. After thinking about it, he saluted and retreated.

 Chapter 282

    Zhuo Xi and Liu Shizhong sat down again, "niece and daughter-in-law, this man is sometimes so short-sighted. If you are weak, others will bully you. If you want to go out later, you''d better take two bodyguards. "


    Liu said shamefully, "I see my aunt doesn''t have a bodyguard. How can I decide without authorization?" In front of the queen, how dare she surpass?


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "you don''t have to follow me. If you go out alone, you''re welcome. " With the bodyguard, if you see someone who doesn''t have eyes, you''re welcome to bully him back. With her support, what are you afraid of!


    Liu was a little embarrassed. "In Junyao City, most people in the city know me..." he wanted to bully her without long eyes, but he was afraid that there was little chance.


    "I''m afraid it''s better to be careful. Moreover, you have only been to Junyao city for less than a year. For a long time, I''m afraid there will be places beyond your reach... "One of the princes will naturally have a conflict of interest with the local scholar families. Over time, the disadvantages will become more and more obvious. It''s inevitable that someone will take risks and do something.


    Liu obviously thought of this, and looked like a Lin, "aunt Xie reminded."


    Such a farce, they didn''t even want to enjoy the serious drama in the hall. They sat for a while and asked to go back.


    Speechless prepared the carriage and waited downstairs.


    Liu helped Zhuo Xi out and soon boarded the car. But I heard a woman crying more than 20 meters ahead, "the head of the family, you go like this. How can we live as orphans and widows..."


    The person next to her advised her, "sister-in-law, are you from Wujia village? It''s still a day''s work to go back. It''s better to go back early and restrain himself, or let him settle down early. "


    Another person said, "eh, it''s from Wujia village again? Several people died in Wujia village this month... "He was covered at the end of his words. I''m afraid someone stopped him.


    "It''s not just Wujia village. I heard my cousin from the countryside say that several of them died in Niutun..."


    ¡­¡­


    Their carriage passed quietly, and these conversations fell in Zhuo Xi''s ears.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Liang Cheng, the county magistrate surnamed Liang, heard that his son and daughter had met a fierce woman in the teahouse. His son appeared in front of him as if he had been beaten into a pig''s head. Suddenly he was angry. When asked about the residence of the shrew they reported, he hesitated. The whole street house in Zihe county was in his mind. He was really impressed by the other courtyard in Qingyuan street. It was said that it was the other courtyard of a dignitary in Beijing, and few people lived in it on weekdays. Now suddenly someone has moved in. Is it the family member of that dignitary??


    He has been a county magistrate for seven or eight years and has already formed a cautious habit. Thinking of him, he called his wife and asked her what distinguished people had visited Zihe county recently?


    When Mrs. Liang arrived, she was startled to see her son beaten into a swollen face like a pig''s head. She came forward painfully and asked, "son, what''s the matter with you?"


    The young master of the Liang family took his mother''s arm and cursed vaguely.


    His head was black and blue and his mouth was already a little unclear.


    The eldest lady of the Liang family said it again vividly. Of course, she hid the prelude to her forced change of play. She only said that when they had a disagreement, they started to fight. When they met their brother nearby, they asked him for help. Unexpectedly, her brother was beaten so badly.


    Liang Cheng asked, "madam, what ladies have visited Zihe county recently?" They have different sources of information.


    Mrs. Liang calmed down from her towering anger. After thinking about it, her face turned white. "Is it her?"


    "Who?" Liang Chengting straightened his back.


    Mrs. Liang told her about the invitation of the county magistrate''s wife to visit Mrs. Hou of Dingyuan in another palace a few days ago. At that time, she thought it was just a normal contact in the women''s circle. Mrs. Hou refused their request and didn''t tell Liang Cheng about it.


    "But I heard that madam Hou lives in the palace. Who lives in another courtyard on Qingyuan street? "


    Liang Cheng was frightened into a cold sweat and immediately collected his look. Whoever can come out to see the play with Mrs. Hou must not be an ordinary role. Thinking of this, he immediately nervously called someone to visit the address.


    Mrs. Liang also realized that there might be a big problem and asked him with a pale face, "did qin''er and ze''er get into trouble?"


    Liang Qin was worried, "parents, no matter who they are, they beat their brother, it''s their fault! You have to avenge your brother! "


    Liang Ze also covered his swollen cheeks and said vaguely, "Dad, please let someone copy the yard quickly! Let all the people there kneel down and beg for mercy. "


    Liang Chengyi patted on the handrail and shouted, "you bastard, don''t you know you''ve made a terrible disaster! From today on, I will be forbidden to stay in the house and think about it for a month! "


    Liang Ze wailed, "Dad, why?"


    Liang Qin also exclaimed, "Dad!"


    Liang Chen said loudly, "don''t think no one knows what you''re doing outside! A girl''s family runs away all day. Do you want your reputation? How can I kiss you in the future? If you ask for love, you are also forbidden for a month! "


    Liang Qin dared not say a word.


    Mrs. Liang turned pale and dared not say anything more. She asked her maidservants to help her brother and sister down to have a rest.


    She turned back and asked carefully, "Sir, do you think I''m going to visit the lady in another courtyard of Qingyuan Street tomorrow?"


    "Must go! No matter who that lady is, since she can have a relationship with Mrs. Hou of Dingyuan, I''m afraid she''s not an ordinary person. I bumped into them today. I don''t know what''s waiting for us in the future... "At last, he was a little disappointed. He has nearly completed his two terms of office in Zihe county. It is really a critical time to move his position. At this time, if he comes out of the reputation of lax governance, the plan will be ruined.


    Thinking of this, he felt that the county magistrate, county Wei and other people should discuss together. Recently, the major and minor events in Zihe county must be paid attention to carefully, but don''t make any mistakes again.


    He strode out of the inner hall and negotiated with several people. He didn''t return to the backyard until nearly 1911.


    That night, the brothers and sisters of the Liang family began to burn.


    Mrs. Liang ran with her clothes on both ends to take care of her brother and sister. But because of the fear that master was angry, he didn''t tell Liang Cheng about it.


    The next day, when Dingyuan Hou''s wife Liu returned to other hospitals, she heard that the county magistrate''s wife, Mrs. Liang, handed in a post and wanted to come over to make amends. She thought of what happened to the Liang brothers and sisters yesterday. I''m afraid it''s for this matter? She remembered that a few days ago, Mrs. Liang went to the palace to ask for a meeting. She was rejected. Otherwise, the conflict might have been avoided. These two days, the empress felt uncomfortable and decided to rest in the palace for two days. She could also steal two days of leisure. Zihe county is a small county, no more than Junyao. There are aristocratic families all over the city. It is also one of her duties to have a good relationship with the official wife of the small county. She thought about it and felt that it was necessary to mention them so that the family members would not collide with the wrong people next time, so she asked someone to reply to Mrs. Liang and receive her in another hospital the next afternoon. As long as the wind is released from her, which of the upper circles of Zihe county will not know??


    The next day, Mrs. Liang was surprised when she saw Mrs. Hou Dingyuan in another courtyard of Qingyuan street. She didn''t expect that Mrs. Hou Dingyuan was the one who lived in the other courtyard. Isn''t that the one who lived in the palace? She could hardly think of it, and her clothes were soaked with cold sweat. She knelt down trembling and coughed again. "The dog bumped into the two ladies the day before yesterday. It''s really a crime to die."


    Liu said tactfully, "Mrs. Liang and my wife are old acquaintances. It doesn''t really matter if they collided with my wife. I''m afraid the lady who lives in the palace hasn''t left the palace for two days."


    The implication is to be angry with them? Zihe county is located in a remote area, but if it is remembered by the dignitaries in Kyoto, will his master''s future be better


    Mrs. Liang was shocked and coughed more and more. "Dogs and dogs are ignorant. I hope Mrs. hou can speak well for the Liang family." She gasped, "no, no, I''ll let the dog and the little girl go to the palace together to apologize and let the noble people deal with it."


    Her son and daughter are her heart, but once she meets such a matter that is vital to the life and death of the family, she can''t care about her son and daughter. It''s always right to plead guilty first.


    Unexpectedly, Liu refused, "the one in the palace needs rest and doesn''t want to be disturbed. Don''t take this matter too seriously. Let it pass in the past. It seems that you are not very comfortable, but you have suffered from the wind and cold? Let''s go back and have a rest. "


    Mrs. Liang breathed a sigh of relief, but deeper worries rose in her heart. She wanted to immediately cut her wings and return to the house to discuss with the master. After a few more greetings with Mrs. Hou, she said goodbye in fear and uneasiness.


    In the evening, I returned to the mansion and told Liang county magistrate that Liang county magistrate was also very frightened. He remembered that in the daytime, he and the master of the county jointly filtered out all the major and minor events that had happened in Zihe county recently, and then made a decision.


    The next day, Liu rushed to the palace to see Zhuo Xi. The first sentence was, "the Liang brothers and sisters died."


    Zhuo Xi was also surprised, "how could it?"


    "It''s said that I was infected with something. I invited a doctor to see me when I had a fever at home two days ago. The sweating Decoction seems to have no effect. When he died, his skin was black and purple. Mrs. Liang was heartbroken. She said they had been poisoned and shouted to county magistrate Liang to find Wuzuo for autopsy. But now outside, there is a saying that he did too much evil with the county magistrate this time. God sent a disaster to punish him. It''s said that many people died outside the medical center. They all have black hair and purple hair. "


    Zhuo Xi was lazily leaning on the bench. As soon as she heard this, she immediately sat up straight. "No doctor said it was an epidemic?"


    Liu thought for a moment and said, "it seems that several villages have been closed down, but there is no such thing in the county... The old doctor sitting in the Xile hall, the largest medical school in the county, can''t tell... He doesn''t dare to make a final decision..."


    Zhuo Xi immediately stood up and walked out, "let''s go and have a look."


    But Liu stopped in front of her nervously, "aunt, there is no final conclusion at present. If it is really an epidemic disease, you..."


    Zhuo Xi brushed away her hand lightly, "did you forget that this palace has some medical skills?"

 Chapter 283

    As soon as the word "this palace" came out, there was a kind of pressure from the superior. Liu''s whole body trembled and hardly dared to move. She is used to the kindness of Zhuo Xi and her family etiquette these days, but she forgets that she is after one country


    She calmed down, then trembled and said, "I understand. Let me go out and arrange it."


    She blessed herself and went out.


    Hibiscus, a close maid standing at the door, suddenly fell short and fell down.


    Chunqing, who was waiting outside the door, hurried to help, "Furong, Furong, how are you?"


    Liu took two steps, but he didn''t dare to delay first. "Supervisor Jiang, you should arrange the cars and horses first. We''ll go out later."


    Then she looked at Hibiscus lying on the ground and said anxiously, "hibiscus, I heard you coughing uncomfortable in the morning. How about now? Are you all right? "


    Hibiscus coughed softly again, struggled to sit up and said weakly, "the maid is fine, just, just a little dizzy..."


    Holding her, Chunqing has cried, "Furong, you''re hot. How can you say it''s okay?!"


    Liu Shi looked at zhuoxi and saw that she gently nodded her head. Then he said to wordless, "wordless father-in-law, would you please come and see the accompanying Doctor Wu?"


    Speechless answered. Wu Taiyi has been accompanying him from Kyoto City and living in the palace, but he has never had a chance to do it. When he heard that the empress agreed, he immediately carried the medicine box.


    Zhuo Xi and Liu had already left the palace and boarded the carriage. She ordered Chunqing to accompany Furong and wait for Doctor Wu to come for treatment.


    When we arrived at the Xile hall, the largest medical center in the county, it was really chaotic.


    Zhuo Xi and his party tore a piece of clothes and tied it to the face and entered the medical school. Several drug children inside were also tied with white cloth, and hurriedly grabbed and delivered drugs. The ground was full of moaning patients. Looking around, there were more than 100 people. An old man in white was also tied with white cloth and squatted on the ground to feel the pulse for the patient. Family members squat or stand, some silently wipe their tears, some sob in a low voice, some look numbly at the scene in front of them, and some call the doctor anxiously


    Suddenly, a sharp voice in the north corner exclaimed, "Dr. Hao, Dr. Hao! My father seems to be out of breath. Come and have a look! "


    The old doctor was startled. He stepped forward carefully from the gap on the ground, turned over the man''s eyelids, shook his head and sighed helplessly.


    The boy cried loudly.


    Zhuo Xi hurried forward and was startled by the man''s situation. A large area of fishy purplish red can be seen on the skin of fruit dew on the face, neck and hands, which is the ecchymosis formed by subcutaneous bleeding. She knew that these bruises would slowly turn purple and black as the body cooled... Some large black lumps had appeared on the skin... She had a preliminary understanding of the disease from the old doctor. She looked at the old doctor''s forehead as if there was an abnormal red tide. She didn''t care much. She grabbed his wrist, put on her pulse, and whispered in a creepy voice, "Dr. Hao, you''re hot!" This must be the most terrible infectious disease in the legend!


    She quickly said to Liu, "nephew and daughter-in-law, go back first and send a team of people to block here! Find Wang Yun to call the staff of the Palace first. If it''s not enough, you can think of other ways! Make sure there is no entry or exit! "


    Liu was so anxious, "Mom... Aunt! How can this work! If you want to go, you go with me! "


    Zhuo Xi looked at her fiercely, "you don''t know medical skills. It''s harmful to stay here! You have to deal with a lot of things outside! After blocking this place, prepare clean white cloth, cut it into clothes and masks, and disinfect it... You can''t remember so much. Listen to me, you go out first, and I''ll tell you everything! "


    Liu was frightened and looked at the Spring Festival Gala like asking for help.


    The Spring Festival Gala was also frightened and looked at her pleadingly.


    Zhuo Xi gave her and wordless a look of trust, "Spring Festival Gala, wordless, you are the most powerful around me. First prepare what I just said. When you are ready, if you want to come in and help, come and help me, okay?"


    Tears fell from the Spring Festival Gala. Without saying anything, "Dong" knelt down, carefully knocked his head, and took Liu''s wordless few out together.


    If there is anything wrong with the mother, they can''t live. It''s a big deal to come in and accompany her!


    The mother didn''t say that they all knew that it was an epidemic! A raging epidemic! The empress and your body have no hesitation. What else do they hesitate?!


    Dr. Hao heard what they said, but he didn''t object and couldn''t stop it. He just dropped his eyes in silence.


    Someone nearby also heard the word "blockade", and some riots began, "madam, what do you mean? Why block this place? What the hell is this? "


    Zhuo Xi ignored it and turned to ask Dr. Hao softly, "Dr. Hao, how many days have you been so hot?"


    The old doctor hesitated for a moment, took off his scarf, and sure enough, his cheeks flushed. "Thank you, madam. I just started to get hot yesterday..."


    The person next to him was immediately distracted, "what! Dr. Hao, are you sick, too?! You must be too tired. You''d better have a rest first! "


    Zhuo Xi carefully asked about the similarities of these people''s diseases. These patients basically had high fever. Some patients left that night, some were ill for two or three days, and some had a course of seven or eight days, but no one recovered in a month


    With his detailed explanation, more and more profound shadow of death strongly enveloped the hospital.


    While they were talking, a team of bodyguards quietly blocked all the exits of the hospital.


    At this time, someone found it near the door and shouted, "Why are there officers and soldiers? Are we going to be locked up in the hospital? "


    The crowd stirred.


    A group of people rushed to the door. The guard quickly closed the door and quickly nailed it with two slats.


    Someone shouted, "why, why?! We''re not sick, we just accompany the patient in! Let us out! "


    A few quick hands and feet ran to the backyard and shouted, "no, no! The backyard is closed! "


    "The windows here are also sealed. I can''t get out at all!"


    "Why lock us up?! We are not ill! "


    Someone cried in despair.


    Someone near Zhuo Xi in the hall remembered that Zhuo Xi was the initiator and shouted to Zhuo Xi, "madam, what''s going on? What disease do we have? "


    Zhuo Xi glanced at Dr. Hao and said sadly, "to tell you the truth, this is an epidemic."


    With a "wow", the whole audience burst into a pot again.


    Although people have guessed these days, the doctor has no final conclusion, and the government has no one to come forward. Where does anyone dare to talk nonsense? In this era, the word "epidemic" is the death notice. Whoever dares to talk nonsense, the government will buckle the hat of spreading rumors and causing trouble after checking the evidence!


    The lady is not afraid of the government and dares to make such a conclusion that eight, nine and ten are inseparable.


    For a moment there was a constant cry.


    The old doctor bowed 90 degrees to the crowd, "sorry, everyone! I''ve been practicing medicine for 40 years. I''ve never seen this disease, and I''m not sure it''s an epidemic. This has delayed everyone. I''m really sorry! "


    There was a moment of silence in the hall.


    Someone said angrily in the back, "what a broken medical school! If it had been an epidemic! How can those of us who are not ill be locked up? "


    "I''ve been practicing medicine for forty years! Not even a disease! Are you trying to kill us all?! "


    Then someone cried, "what if you''re locked up here? Do we have to wait to die? "


    A little medicine boy ran over and said angrily, "how can you say that?! Shifu tried his best to treat it, but this is a disease that has never appeared! Moreover, it is not the epidemic that the government has the final say. Touch your conscience! Shifu even infected herself! Not only you, but also master and us are now locked up! Who doesn''t want to live? "


    There was no sound in the audience.


    Zhuo Xi said slowly at this time, "my wife just passed here with nothing to do and shut herself in. Did she deliberately come in and die?!"


    A wave of hope rose in the eyes of the people nearby, "madam, you... Do you mean that we can all be saved? Is that true? " Epidemic disease


    Zhuo Xi nodded affirmatively, "Mrs. Ben knows this disease and how to prescribe the right medicine. But it all needs your cooperation. Whether you can live depends on the time of infection. If you all want to live as long as possible, listen to me. "


    A young man stood up, "madam, we all sent patients in for treatment. We didn''t get sick. If we can save these patients to the greatest extent and let us go out alive, we naturally obey our words."


    "Well, ladies and gentlemen, Mrs. Ben blocked this hospital mainly to prevent the disease here and expand the scope of transmission. You see, this gate is not sealed. People outside will provide us with food, water and medicine. We will not starve to death, and the blockade is only temporary. As long as the disease is cured, we can go out. So first of all, you don''t have to be too afraid or too worried. Just take good care of the patient as I told you. "


    At this time, everyone seemed to have a relaxed look on their faces. Several young people came over, "what can I do for you, madam? Just say it. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded approvingly and asked the little medicine boy, "brother, can there be a wider empty room in the backyard?"


    The little medicine boy nodded, "there are four rooms, a big pharmacy and a firewood room.


    "Can you show me?" Zhuo Xi asked gently.


    The little medicine boy nodded, "of course, madam, this way, please."


    Zhuo Xi also nodded at the young people and said, "come with me."


    Several people went to the backyard and looked. Zhuo Xi decisively asked them to remove all the herbs in the pharmacy, put them in the middle of the yard and empty the pharmacy. Then let them move the patients into the large pharmacy to isolate them and arrange them in order according to the severity of the disease. The patient who had just died was put in a separate wood room. The remaining four rooms are also vacated. One room was left to Zhuo Xi alone, and the other three were equally distributed to the families who were not ill during the observation period. Although it''s a little crowded, it''s much safer to isolate it.


    In the busy gap, Zhuo Xi came to the front door and ordered Liu and the Spring Festival Gala to prepare some necessary things through the nailboard. Soon they sent white masks and other items, as well as Doctor Wu.


    Wu Taiyi also brought Furong here and anxiously asked the empress for instructions, "Miss Furong has also been infected with this disease. Please let me go in and isolate with Miss Furong."

 Chapter 284

    Liu, the Spring Festival Gala, Chunqing and wordless also said one after another, "we have also entered the Medical Museum, and we should come in together for isolation."


    Zhuo Xi helped the forehead, but he could only keep chunzao, who had not contacted the patient and had not entered the hospital, to meet him outside in case of need at any time.


    The guards pried a crack in the nailboard and let Wu Taiyi and others come in together with materials such as white masks.


    As soon as they came in the Spring Festival Gala, they assigned the first batch of white masks to a limited number of doctors, medicine children and some of them as nursing workers as ordered by the queen.


    The spring outside is still staring at others, and they rush to make white masks all night. Some special people found a restaurant and slowly boiled some light porridge over a fine fire.


    Zhuo Xi saw that things were arranged in an orderly manner, and taught Liu and the Spring Festival Gala all the other precautions related to disinfection, so she went to consult the prescription with Dr. Hao and Dr. Wu.


    After seeing the symptoms of almost all the patients, Zhuo Xi can basically conclude that this is the plague of terror, the black death that has swept the continent of Europe and makes people sick. From fever, some people have lymphadenopathy such as neck, armpit and groin. Most people die of cough, chest pain, blood in saliva, and even coughing up blood. A few people have subcutaneous bleeding and vomiting. After death, the skin blood spots are purple and black. It was said that although she knew what the disease was, she had a headache for treatment. Because in modern times, the treatment of plague is by injecting gentamicin, streptomycin and other antibiotics. However, in this era, there is no relevant alternative medicine at all, and we can only start with traditional Chinese medicine.


    Zhuo Xi had studied the prescription with the old doctor. After Dr. Wu joined in, the three studied it for a while. According to Zhuo Xi, this is an acute toxic infectious disease, and the treatment should start with detoxification. When Dr. Hao first heard about it, he was stunned for a while before he said shamefully, "I''m bent on making them sweat, relieve their skin and reduce fever... If I used the addition and subtraction of Jiedu Huoxue Decoction earlier, it might have a miraculous effect."


    Wu Taiyi also considered for a long time, and the three worked out a prescription together. Several medicine boys did not dare to delay and hurriedly went to get the medicine. When they got the medicine, they found that there was a medicine called Chuanpu, which was not in the ready-made warehouse.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly asked the Spring Festival Gala to tell people outside to look for this medicine.


    £­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­£­


    Liang Cheng in such a large static and dynamic official yamen naturally got the news at the first time.


    He was frightened and angry. Angrily, when he discussed with several colleagues such as Xian Cheng and Xian Wei, he had preliminarily judged that it was an epidemic according to the disease situation. However, he was afraid of causing panic and attracting the attention of two dignitaries recuperating in Zihe county. He only quietly sent officers and soldiers to block the three seriously ill villages below. Who knows, many people have rushed to the largest hospital in the county overnight to ask for medicine. When Mrs. Hou Dingyuan rushed to them, he had just recovered from the news of the death of his son and daughter, and was busy comforting and taking care of his grieving old wife. He knew from the symptoms of his children that they must have contracted the disease outside. When he asked the maid who followed him, he knew that they happened to pass by the joy Hall of the medical school after they were injured, so he went in and put some ointment on them. Then someone immediately reported that several servants who followed the young master died.


    Fearing Yisheng, he hurriedly asked someone to send the servant''s body to Yizhuang for burning.


    Before he could tell Mrs. Liang about the epidemic and the need to send her children''s bodies to burn, Mrs. Liang had fainted from crying and had fever all over her body.


    He had to have his children''s bodies sent to Yizhuang immediately and ordered someone to summon the doctor. Turning around, he saw his martial master Dong Zhong come in in a hurry and report that someone blocked the happy hall. When he asked, he knew that the bodyguard who blocked the medical school was from the palace.


    He was stunned.


    He knows what that means. The fire can''t be wrapped in paper. This is to say that it will delay the epidemic situation at a small scale, and it is to say that it is careless and human life at a large scale. Moreover, the epidemic is threatening, and I''m afraid there are many deaths and injuries. Either way, it''s the responsibility of losing your head.


    He was in a hurry.


    Dong Zhong was also in a hurry. If something happens to an adult, he can''t escape.


    Therefore, his first priority is to suggest that adults send officers and soldiers to reinforce the guards in the palace. In this case, it is natural to provide a human hand is a help. Moreover, he knew that the epidemic situation was not only concentrated in xiletang, but also received similar patients from major hospitals in the whole county. The palace guards of more than ten people obviously haven''t spared no effort to take care of other medical schools. This is a good opportunity to make up for their mistakes. He also heard that Mrs. Hou from Dingyuan and the lady from Kyoto are both in the joy hall. If officers and soldiers can help these two ladies control the epidemic here and stop its spread, it will be a great achievement.


    Liang Cheng asked him to stand by at the government office. He had to think about it. After Dong Zhong left, he immediately rushed to the backyard and asked Mrs. Liang to pack up and abscond with him. But when he saw Mrs. Liang, he was frightened again. Because Mrs. Liang, bright red blood clots have appeared on both sides of her neck under her flushed cheeks. He took a breath of air-conditioning and retreated quickly. Not caring much, he returned to the house, hurriedly packed up a few things, took a strong horse from the stable and ran away immediately.


    Dong Zhongzheng was in the lobby of the government office with the county magistrate and Xian Wei. He didn''t see the county magistrate come out for a long time. He sent a boy in to ask. Only then did he know that the county magistrate had disappeared. Several people were shocked. Xian Wei waved his big hand, "don''t care so much. Immediately call the officers and soldiers and do what master Dong said." Several people, old and young, are in Zihe county. Naturally, they have no choice. It''s not too late to make up for the work.


    The county magistrate is responsible for material allocation and the county Wei is responsible for dispatching personnel. They work together to quickly arrange things.


    So soon, officers and soldiers supported the joy hall.


    Chunzao, who helped outside, was overjoyed and passed the good news to Liu and others through the nailboard.


    Liu nodded and said, "they know each other."


    Dong Zhong was also overjoyed. He felt that Mrs. Hou Dingyuan had accepted their kindness, which was promising. So he kept following chunzao day and night, waiting for the orders inside at any time.


    As soon as he heard the order from inside to look for Chuanpu, he immediately took action. Within half an hour, he bought a large bag of Chuanpu from other medical centers and handed it in.


    After Chuanpu got back, Yaotong hurriedly decocted the medicine according to the prescription. After decocting the medicine, he took it to a person with mild disease. As expected, the fever soon subsided. Everyone was overjoyed and prepared to decoct medicine in large quantities according to the prescription, but someone reported that the neck and armpit of the person taking the medicine were swollen.


    That is, the virus is still in the body, but the fever has subsided.


    Zhuo Xi frowned and added purple flower Di Ding to the prescription. She tasted it herself, and Dr. Hao tasted the medicine himself before taking it to the patient. Similarly, the fever subsided, but the swelling of the lymphatic system still didn''t eliminate.


    For seven hours, they were constantly testing drugs, preparing prescriptions and taking medicine for patients.


    Most of the patients drank medicine to reduce their fever, and the disease was relieved. There are several cases of subcutaneous bleeding in acute illness. They have no medicine to cure and died


    But at the same time, several families of patients with early fever drank medicine at the first time and recovered.


    They cheered. The dead are gone, and the living are naturally more important.


    But Zhuo Xi still didn''t smile. She knew that she had not won the final victory.


    The Spring Festival Gala passed the preliminary prescription outside, asked people outside to send it to other happy halls, fried it for people who had just suffered from the epidemic, and asked the bodyguards to carefully transfer the severe patients found in other places to here. In spring, a large number of white masks have been prepared and distributed to all people, telling them that the epidemic will spread through saliva. They will wear masks whether they are sick or not.


    The panic in the city was relieved immediately. Those patients who were in the early stage of fever were treated. Some who were not ill but were very afraid also came to ask for a prescription and took medicine to fry and drink.


    The maid who Mrs. Liang served closely also found that Mrs. Liang''s situation was wrong and came out to find Mr. Dong to explain the situation. Master Dong quickly asked her to transport people here carefully.


    In the evening, Zhuo Xi went into the house to have a rest under the strong dissuasion of doctor Hao and Doctor Wu. But she tossed and turned. Liu Shi, who was in the same room with her, also had difficulty sleeping.


    She felt very strange. Even if the emperor had a quarrel with the empress, the emperor still hid in the xuanyue garden without saying a word. She wanted to ask, but she didn''t dare. The news from supervisor Jiang said that the xuanyue garden was as peaceful as before. Mrs. Yao did nothing special except enjoying dancing, drinking and banquet. The emperor only practiced sword painting in the palace and didn''t say much.


    Suddenly, Zhuo Xi sat up from bed and said softly, "no, I have to go out of town to find medicine." She has seen all the ready-made herbs in the medicine library. There is no special antidote. Xiaobai is not here, so she can only go out of the city to find some detoxification holy products like xiaohongguo. She knew that in this era, the herbs that could be recognized and used were really limited. If you want to find and develop some new herbs, you can only go and know them yourself.


    Liu Shi was greatly surprised and jumped up from the bed, "empress, don''t do it!"


    "Why not?"?? Now, where else is more dangerous than this hospital? "


    That''s true. Liu was speechless. After a pause, he immediately said, "I''ll go with you."


    "If you are not afraid of hard work, you can go with me."


    The Spring Festival Gala had long heard the dialogue between the two outside and rushed in, "Niang, slaves and maidservants will go together."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "yes! Then you call Chunqing speechless. Let''s go together. " Zhuo Xi didn''t want to embarrass them or worry them. If being together can make them feel at ease, and they can have more helpers, why not?


    Several people cleaned up, took advantage of the night, touched the side door of the backyard, whispered to open the guard there, opened a narrow gap in the nailboard and let several people out.


    Dong Zhong, who had been guarding by the door, heard the news and bowed over to ask if he had any orders?


    Liu recognized him and carefully introduced him to Zhuo Xi, "this is the master of Zihe county government, Dong Zhong."


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes brightened and asked as she walked, "master? Then you should be familiar with the local situation? "


    Dong Zhong bowed and carefully replied, "I''ve been here for more than 20 years. I don''t know where my wife is going? Even if you don''t know the specific location, you can probably know a direction. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "do you know what mountain has the most herbs nearby?"

 Chapter 285

    Dong zhonglue stood up and said, "Zihe county is named for a huge Zihe mountain. Not only local doctors, but also many foreign doctors and pharmacists like to go to Zihe mountain to look for herbs. If the two ladies don''t dislike it, the little one can lead the way for the two ladies. " He was overjoyed. Originally, he saw the two ladies go out in the dark and thought they were going to leave here. The worst plan is that they will give up here, but they don''t want to find herbs. He is a native of Zihe county. Although no direct relatives are infected with the disease, he saw with his own eyes several people who were sent to the hospital today. Zihe County suffered such a great disaster, and he was also very sad.


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "then please lead the way. Are there any available hands around you? Let them send some torches back to Lou, will you? "


    They only recited three Trichosanthes. If they really find useful herbs, I''m afraid it''s not enough.


    Dong Zhong immediately waved to a small soldier on patrol and gave him two orders.


    Soon a carriage came. Zhuo Xi looked at Dong Zhong with appreciation and took the lead in getting on the carriage.


    Wuyan and Dong Zhong sat outside, and the other women''s family members sat inside. Time is too short to care about anything else.


    Soon, the carriage took them to the foot of Zihe mountain to prepare torches, baskets and other materials. The small soldiers quickly arrived here on horseback.


    At this time, the fish belly was white in the sky. Under the guidance of the torch, they went up the mountain.


    Zhuo Xi first thought of the small red fruit. He described the color and shape of the fruit to you in detail, and made them open their eyes to look for it.


    Dong Zhong is very clever. He has already seen that Zhuo Xi is the one who can decide among these people. Wen Yan immediately told the accompanying soldiers to look for them separately.


    The party searched silently in the faint morning light and the flickering torch light.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t hold much hope for the little red fruit.


    Because she never found the little red fruit anywhere except around the green mountain mausoleum.


    But when a soldier exclaimed, "is this it?" she couldn''t help but cheer up. If she could find this little red fruit that can detoxify all poisons, it must have a miraculous effect.


    Plague, bad guy, is a virus called rat poison or exotoxin that spreads through fleas and spittle. This toxin can destroy protein integrity to a great extent. Therefore, the idea of preparing prescriptions from the perspective of detoxification is completely correct.


    She asked the soldier to take the small red fruit. She was a little disappointed. The color was red, but her body shape was much smaller. With a little luck, she wiped the fruit and stuffed it into her mouth.


    Startled, the Spring Festival Gala hurried forward and shouted, "madam!"


    Liu jumped to his feet and said, "aunt, how can you eat it yourself? If you want someone to test the medicine, we can all! " You should know that everything imported by the emperor and the empress in the palace must be tested and tasted, that is, the food made with serious ingredients in casual shops must be tested and tasted before it can be presented to the master. The fruit is not poisonous. Although the queen herself is a pharmacist, how can she personally test the medicine with a golden body?


    Zhuo Xi tasted the fruit in her mouth and shook her head, "it''s not it. You look for it again. "


    Then he turned to Liu and said, "only I know what the fruit tastes like. It''s useless for you to try it."


    Dong Zhong was deeply shocked when he saw it. He greeted the soldiers who witnessed the whole process and said, "go, go! Look carefully again and don''t bring some mess! "


    The party continued to look up the mountain.


    Zhuo Xi found some antidote herbs that were not in the medicine storehouse and let people recognize them clearly. He collected a basket and was going to take it back to the medical school for trial.


    Several people found the suspected small red fruit one after another. Zhuo Xi tasted it one by one and shook his head in disappointment.


    Soon it was getting brighter. When passing by a steep slope, Zhuo Xi narrowed her eyes and looked down for a long time. Then she grabbed a fine vine next to her and slowly explored her feet, reaching out to pick a purple herb.


    Liu, who was looking for her carefully, turned around and was scared out of his wits. He immediately ran over to grab her hand.


    Zhuo Xi was also startled. He subconsciously wanted to hold on to the vine. Unexpectedly, he slipped under his feet. The vine was torn off vigorously and his body slipped down.


    Liu shouted, "ah! Mother! " He threw himself out and grabbed Zhuo Xi''s hand.


    Everyone else was shocked.


    The Spring Festival Gala is the first time to come.


    Fortunately, it was just a steep slope. Zhuo Xi rolled several circles on the slope, and a figure appeared behind her, hugged her waist and blocked her downward trend.


    Liu Shi also rushed to roll down, and the figure helplessly stretched out his hand and pulled her arm.


    The people above were relieved to see it.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and scolded, "Hua Yan, if you showed up earlier, I won''t suffer."


    Hua Yan glanced, "don''t you want me to pick these weeds?" Isn''t that overqualified?


    Liu got up and hurried to Zhuo Xi''s side, "Niang... Aunt, how are you? Are you all right? " Oh, no, I just missed my mouth. Didn''t they hear me


    "It''s all right. Didn''t you roll down, too? I''ll be fine if you''re fine. "


    The three climbed the hillside with each other.


    The Spring Festival Gala took a few steps forward and pulled them up.


    After going up, I saw a group of petrified officers and soldiers in front of me.


    Dong Zhong was shocked.


    My God? Did he hear right?


    There is only one empress in the emperor''s harem. Who else can be called "empress" in the world today? It''s from Kyoto again... Mrs. Dingyuan Hou calls her aunt


    He began to swing his legs. He didn''t know whether he should kneel down and shout "mother Millennium", or pretend not to know and continue to open his eyes with the people around her as a blind man


    The other soldiers were equally confused.


    The Spring Festival Gala came forward and scolded, "what are you standing in a daze! Why don''t you look for herbs?! Who can afford to delay the illness? "


    As soon as Dong Zhong''s legs softened, he knelt down and fell on his head. He didn''t dare to say a word.


    The other soldiers also knelt down.


    Zhuo Xi sighed and said gently, "get up. You''ve been working hard. Let''s go back now. Leave a few people to continue to look for these herbs, and pick as many as you have. " She motioned for the Spring Festival Gala to take out several herbs from the basket and give them a look.


    Dong Zhong and the soldiers did not dare to move.


    Zhuo Xi and Liu Shi took the lead in going down the mountain.


    Dong Zhongcai thought of something and kicked the soldier aside. "Don''t go and show your wife the way!"


    He thought it was safer to call "madam". The empress didn''t express her identity, indicating that she didn''t want people to know her identity


    The little soldier bent down and ran to the front.


    When he returned to the city, Dong Zhong no longer dared to sit outside with Wuyan, but rode behind with a surging heart.


    When the people in the hospital got up in the morning, they found that the two distinguished ladies and the attendants they brought were gone, and they immediately panicked.


    "They''re giving us up!" Someone exclaimed.


    "No, isn''t there someone else bringing in the morning? If they want to give up, why do they have to send meals? "


    "But they all ran away. Is this disease hopeless?! This hospital won''t be a dead man, will it? "


    Several people began to cry in fear.


    "Dr. Hao! You are the owner of this hospital! You go outside and say, let them let us out! We are not ill! " Several of the patient''s family members held on to Dr. Hao.


    Doctor Wu couldn''t see it anymore. "Don''t be impatient. Madam, I won''t leave you alone. I promise with my head. "


    "What are you? Maybe your wife just left you to comfort us and ran away first! "


    Doctor Wu was sweating, but he couldn''t show that he was the imperial doctor in the imperial city. I don''t know how to explain.


    Doctor Hao was not sure, so he could only say weakly, "you saw it yesterday. Madam, we will try our best to treat us and won''t leave us alone."


    "Where did they go?"


    Dr. Hao was slow and speechless.


    Someone cried again, "they''re not coming back... We''re going out..."


    After a while, there was some movement at the side door. The people close looked at it and widened their eyes. After a long time, they trembled and shouted, "she, they are back!"


    All those who could move excitedly rushed to the side door and watched the two distinguished ladies bring in baskets of herbs with their original attendants and several officers and soldiers.


    A medicine boy also said excitedly, "it turns out that my wife went to collect medicine overnight."


    The last medicine Lou is actually four long sheep horns.


    Zhuo Xi saw everyone''s expression and understood what had happened. She took a step forward, but she stumbled. Liu hurriedly held her and asked anxiously, "aunt, are you okay?"


    When she was in the carriage, she thought something was wrong with the empress. With such a help, she immediately felt that the temperature under her hands was very high.


    She quickly shouted, "Dr. Wu, please come and take a look for my aunt."


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand, "I''m fine for the time being." She said to the uneasy people in front, "don''t worry, we have brought new antidote herbs, which may have miraculous effects."


    The two young people who followed her to help arched their hands and said, "sorry, madam, I''m too worried. Your health matters. You''d better have a look first. I promise not to make trouble. "


    Doctor Wu has crowded over to feel Zhuo Xi''s pulse.


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand and said, "I''m fine. I just tasted too many of those fruits, some of which contradicted each other. Come first. " Doctor Wu and doctor Hao were shocked. Generally speaking, they meant poisoning


    She motioned Dr. Hao and several drug children to come, told them the names and properties of the herbs one by one, and asked them to take some to join the prescriptions to test the efficacy.


    "The last basket is wild sheep horns. Find a tool to grind them into powder and bring them to me first."

 Chapter 286

    It was a casual glance when she boarded the carriage and found that there were two goats not far away. She remembered that antelope horn was a famous medicine for cooling blood, detoxifying and detumescence, but it was located in the south. It was estimated that antelope could not be found. I didn''t care so much for a moment. First, I asked the officers and soldiers to hunt them and take sheep''s horns. Wild goat horn also has detoxification effect. She also ordered the officers and soldiers to look around for other sheep horns, no matter what variety, and try them again.


    Dr. Hao and Dr. Wu immediately studied the prescription. Without delay, several medicine boys ground the sheep horn into fine powder with a grinding medicine pestle, and immediately sent it to Zhuo Xi.


    Zhuo Xi was dizzy and was leaning on the bed to rest. When she heard that the wild goat horn powder had been sent, she asked the Spring Festival Gala to pour a bowl of hot water and flush the powder in.


    Liu stopped her, "aunt, let me try."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "you have no symptoms, and you can''t try anything. I''m just dizzy. It''s best to try this medicine. "


    Liu couldn''t help it any longer and rushed out with tears.


    She wants to write to her husband and tell him everything that has happened here. She also wants to tell him that she goes in and out with her aunt. If her aunt has something wrong, she will not live alone.


    Chunqing outside the door was already in tears, and she couldn''t help running to chunzao who had been waiting by the door. She cried and told chunzao that the empress had to continue to test the medicine after she was poisoned and dizzy in the morning.


    Dong Zhong, who had been rejected by chunzao all the time, was even more moved when he listened in. He saw it in his eyes in the first half, but he didn''t know that the queen was poisoned when she tried to eat the fruit. No wonder she looked pale when she got off the carriage. He didn''t know that the first thing for the queen to return to the medical school was not to detoxify herself, but to explain the efficacy and medicinal methods of the new herbs one by one before going to rest. In order to test the detoxification of sheep horn, he carried the toxin in his body


    He remembered that two years ago, when the soldiers of Daliang had just occupied Zisang, the soldiers stationed at the Teng Ju border had a large area of dysentery. It was also the Queen''s mother who found a herb called Artemisia annua with pregnancy and saved the lives of the whole army. In fact, this disease is called chiwo in Zisang. It has appeared in many areas of the original Zisang. Local people have some earthworks that can treat chiwo. But Daliang soldiers are invaders. Although many people in yuanzisang have to surrender to Daliang''s divine artillery and iron tools, they are all elated to learn that Daliang soldiers have chiwo disease. Where else would anyone be foolish enough to give earth to those who occupy their own land?


    Although he didn''t know what kind of herb the Artemisia annua was, he knew that even the people of yuanzisang felt that the herb was better and effective than their original earthwork, and ten people ate it to ensure that ten people could live. Although the previous earthwork has an effect, not everyone has an effect after eating it. It''s good if seven or eight out of ten can survive


    Thinking like this, he suddenly had a strange idea


    Then think again and again, the master is here, is he behind her


    The more he thought about it, the more excited he became


    No, we have to act quickly!


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    Zhuo Xi used wild goat horn powder. Sure enough, the symptoms were relieved immediately. When she took it again, the basic symptoms disappeared. With a sigh of relief, she found Dr. Hao and asked him to add the prescription. She immediately fried it and took it.


    Dr. Hao was also infected with the epidemic. Although the fever subsided after taking medicine yesterday, the lymph nodes of his neck were obviously swollen. At this time, after taking the medicine, those swollen places obviously subsided in less than an hour.


    Several people were very excited and boiled a lot of medicine for the patients.


    The symptoms were mild for an hour or so, and the swelling and pain subsided; The bleeding area no longer expands, but shows signs of shrinking; Those who cough up blood don''t cough so badly.


    The crowd cheered.


    The Spring Festival Gala quickly sent out a new prescription and a bag of wild goat powder.


    Soon that night, other hospitals also sent news that many patients were obviously much better.


    Zhuo Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally used more dinner. She lay in bed with her clothes and fell asleep.


    Liu also breathed a sigh of relief. After tucking in the quilt corner for her, he went to the big ward to inspect.


    The room used to hold the dead was also empty, and the bodies were transported by officers and soldiers to Yizhuang for collective cremation. Once a new death occurs in the ward, it will also be sent to Yizhuang at the first time.


    Tonight is the key.


    She remembered her aunt''s instructions and had to see everyone with Dr. Wu Taiyi and Dr. Hao.


    Several people looked over one by one and asked about their condition. Obviously different from the previous two days, the patients'' faces showed a look of hope, no longer dead despair.


    Suddenly, a hand grabbed Liu''s clothes. Liu turned his head and saw that it was Mrs. Liang. She was surprised, "how did you..."


    She suddenly remembered that Mrs. Liang''s sons and daughters had died because of the disease, and her husband, Lord Liang, abandoned his official position and fled. Her heart was very heavy.


    Mrs. Liang just shed tears and couldn''t speak.


    Liu patted her hand placidly. "Don''t worry, the disease can be cured now, and you won''t worry about your life. You can go out of the hospital and go home in a few days."


    Mrs. Liang''s tears flowed out more violently, home? Does she still have a home? When her son and daughter died, her husband abandoned her and fled


    Liu also thought of this. Suddenly, he remembered what his aunt had told her a few days ago. He had a backbone again, so he said to her, "when these things are over in two days, you can come to me in another hospital. I need your help. "


    Mrs. Liang raised her eyes in amazement and nodded silently.


    After a tour, no new cases were found and the condition was not aggravated. They were relieved, left the medicine boy to guard, and all went back to the house to have a rest.


    After three days, there were no more deaths. More and more people who recovered their health lived in the lobby of the hospital, hoping to go home early. However, the noble man said that we must leave enough time for observation for seven days. If there are no symptoms after seven days, we can go home.


    Patients who have recovered from illness come to thank the two ladies and the two doctors.


    Some said they didn''t expect to cure for so long. They didn''t bring enough clinic money. They were ready to take it home and send it back. Some poor people said with shame that they might not be able to pay the medical fee and asked if they could stay here for a few more days to help and do some hard work to offset the medical fee.


    Doctor Hao Xi and others can''t see doctor Hao Xi. Dr. Hao responded one by one.


    He himself had narrowly escaped death and knew more about the value of life. And not only did he escape from death, but this joy hall escaped from death. After this epidemic, his own hospital must be famous. Why don''t you worry about not having business in the future?


    In the past few days, Zhuo Xi has become more and more aware of the need to establish and operate the health system as soon as possible. Needless to say, if the patent medicine such as wild sheep horn powder can be prepared in batches earlier and used directly when necessary, it can greatly save time and treat more patients.


    Yuyimen has no branch in Zihe county. Naturally, it is impossible to monitor the epidemic here, so no news came in. It is said that most of the three villages previously blocked have recovered after taking the soup medicine sent by the officers and soldiers. However, the epidemic broke out first in those three villages, with serious deaths and injuries, leaving many orphans and widows.


    The health system cannot be built at a glance, but the women''s nursing college can be prepared first. She made up her mind and told Liu Shi her plan in detail.


    There must be a general person in charge to take the lead here in Junyao six counties.


    Since the recruitment, management and teaching of women''s nursing college are women, naturally Liu is more suitable.


    Liu was also very excited and ready to fight a big battle.


    This was a day she had never dared to think of before. Women can no longer only be locked up at home to teach their husband and children, but can also take up official positions and make a career? Poor girls are no longer only selling themselves as maidservants. Can they learn nursing knowledge and work in medical schools? The daughter of the knowledgeable family is no longer only possible to learn embroidery, piano and chess at home, but also to learn medicine like a man and become a female doctor?


    God, what kind of shocking idea is this?


    No, no, it''s not an idea. It''s said that there have been colleges specially set up for female doctors to study medicine in Kyoto City?


    She was so frightened that she couldn''t sleep all night.


    He felt that he had a long way to go, so he simply got up and lit the light and wrote to his husband overnight.


    On the eighth day, dozens of people who had been confirmed safe and sound the night before could not help but squeeze at the gate to wait for release.


    Zhuo Xi and Liu''s party were also going out of the museum, so they cleaned up and came out.


    The patients are still isolated in the big pharmacy, but they are full of expectations. They know that they are not without medicine, but they are ill for a long time and need more time.


    People have made way for you.


    Zhuo Xi has asked the Spring Festival Gala to open the nailboard at the gate.


    When the last nail fell to the ground with a crisp sound, someone burst into tears.


    I can finally go home.


    The guards took down the board and slowly opened the gate.


    The morning sun slanted into the lobby.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t go out, but turned around and told them, "you''ve seen a lot of diseases these days. When you go back, if you find any suspected cases of persistent high fever, let them come to the joy hall immediately. The mask on the face can''t be taken off. Go home and imitate to do more washing. When you get home, according to what doctor Hao taught you last night, fumigate the house with vinegar for sterilization and disinfection. This is an extraordinary time. Don''t take it lightly. Don''t catch the disease again. "


    Those who have found a life are like arrows to return home, but they can no longer take steps.


    Someone knelt down and kowtowed his thanks.


    One after another, people knelt down and kowtowed to thank them.


    Zhuo Xi saw this and said, "get up quickly", so he hurried out of the threshold.


    The bodyguards immediately hugged the empress in the middle and protected the empress into the carriage.


    I don''t know who said something behind. After a moment of silence, the storm shouted like thunder, "congratulations to the queen! The empress is thousand years old, thousand years old, thousand years old... "


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand and wiped her forehead with sweat. Unexpectedly, she didn''t care which bastard in the back leaked her identity. She only thought about it. She didn''t know whether the one in Mufeng garden had come back... If so

 Chapter 287

    When Zhuo got off at the gate of the palace, another carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.


    Several people in the Spring Festival Gala jumped out of the car first. As soon as they saw the scene in front of them, they hurried forward to salute, "see the emperor."


    Mrs. Yao or something. How dare they call her at will without the permission of the queen?


    The Emperor just glanced at them lightly. Without saying anything, he helped Mrs. Yao down the carriage and raised his legs to go to the palace gate. I think Mrs. Yao felt a little inappropriate. She turned back to Zhuo Xifu and said respectfully, "see the queen. The queen has worked hard recently."


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes, waved her hand, and let them enter the Palace first.


    However, Mrs. Yao''s remark sounded ironic in the Spring Festival Gala. The Spring Festival Gala immediately raised its eyebrows. Why have they worked hard to treat the people in the medical school for several days, but the emperor took Mrs. Yao to hide in the palace to eat, drink and have fun. What right does Mrs. Yao have to say that her mother has worked hard? Isn''t that ironic?? So is the emperor. Why don''t you say a word when you see the queen??


    Zhuo Xi didn''t care and hurried back to Mufeng garden.


    Seeing that the garden was empty, I was relieved.


    She ordered the Spring Festival Gala to quickly prepare bath water. These days, she was held in the medical school. She was so dirty that she had to wash and soak well. So she lazily soaked in the bath bucket sprinkled with roses under the worried look of the Spring Festival Gala, and could joke, "how sad, don''t worry, when the palace is bathed, you can also take a good bubble to remove the dirt on your body."


    This night, Zhuo Xi slept very heavily.


    In the middle of the night, the feeling of the ghost pressing the bed came back. She stared round her eyes and returned to her mind. Only then did she find that the tip of her nose was full of familiar taste. The familiar body lay on her body and had been filled in skillfully. She suddenly felt swollen.


    She patted the person on her body. "Are you back?"


    Jing Yuan gnawed at her shoulder. "Why are you going out to make trouble as soon as I''m not here?" He made a fierce collision, which made her scream.


    Zhuo Xi said wrongfully, "how can I cause trouble? I solved a large-scale epidemic outbreak for you! " The feeling on his body gradually recovered, and his hands unconsciously stroked his back.


    "How dare you say?! Have you forgotten what you promised me last time? " He kissed her fiercely and sucked her, as if he wanted to turn the people under him into a pool of water.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t dare to say, but responded warmly to him, hoping he could forget it.


    It took him a long time to sweat down on her.


    He hugged her tightly and said with some fear, "how dare you?? How can you?? What if... What do you want me to do? "


    She patted him on the back, "I''m fine, really, fortunately, the disease was found early, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable." The shadow of the black death in Europe has enveloped the whole European continent for more than 400 years, and 2 / 3 of the population of the whole European continent has died. If this disease spreads in the cool land... It''s really creepy to think about it.


    She thought of another thing, "by the way, the neighboring counties don''t know whether there is an epidemic. Now that you''re back, you have to let someone check it."


    Jing Yuanmo said angrily, "he Qian''s progress is too slow! Tomorrow I will order him to come and supervise it in person! " Only by witnessing the terrible epidemic can we really realize the importance and urgency of the health government office.


    Zhuo Xi murmured, "Jingli is still waiting for you to start printing! What did you give him? " The imperial edict can''t be printed. The secret edict can cover his personal seal, but if the secret edict with the emperor''s private seal is sent back to Kyoto all the way from Zihe County, wouldn''t it expose his whereabouts?


    Thinking of this, she asked again, "ah? We''ve been out for almost twenty days, haven''t we? I don''t know what''s going on in Kyoto? How did you deal with the aftermath? "


    When the sun rose in Beijing, she thought that she might return to Beijing in more than half a month. Just after the Lantern Festival, it was not too late to start printing. But now it has been delayed. It will take ten days to go back, so it will be at least half a month late. Can the cabinet wait that long?


    Jing Yuan bit the delicate skin on her neck, "just let them wait! I''m also a person. Why can''t I have some head fever? "


    Pretending to be sick is a good way, "but what if someone visits?"


    "Then let him explore. Didn''t the queen mother say hello? "


    Well... "Everything is done. Are you leaving tomorrow?"


    "Where else do you want to go?"


    ... in a world without planes, high-speed trains and cars, she is no longer in the mood to play


    "No more. Political affairs are very important. You''d better go back and start printing! " Her Phoenix seal is the same. It''s scheduled to open after 15. Oh, my hard life


    "Then set out tomorrow." There was also a trace of anxiety in his tone.


    Zhuo Xi pushed him, "come down quickly. It''s so heavy that I can''t breathe."


    "Reluctant to come out."


    She reacted slowly, only to know that he was talking about the dick still in her body. She was ashamed and annoyed, "come down quickly."


    He propped up his upper body. "Is that better?"


    Zhuo Xi only felt that the part of the negative distance contact between the two people was tight again, so she had to coquettish and say, "come down quickly. Shall we talk?"


    Jing Yuan thought about it, turned over and took her into his arms.


    "Have you finished everything over there?"


    "When it''s done, the clearance old monk really has a great background. The chart he gave is very accurate. We followed the map and found the nest of that small group of pirates, but found that the whole island was full of dead people. "


    Zhuo Xi glanced. "It''s just hanging a small group of pirates. I''d like to bother you to come out in person."


    "Jian Yi has just taken over the preparation of the Navy. I''m afraid the soldiers here are not satisfied, so I have to take him with me. I persuaded the old monk to go out of the mountain. " Sure enough, the old monk was the main reason why he came.


    Zhuo Xi asked curiously, "you say he has a great background. What exactly is he?"


    "He was the former Navy General of Zisang. His original name was Wei Lin. In fact, more than 30 years ago, the village destruction tragedy in the six coastal villages had something to do with him. He was proficient in Japanese language and short in stature, so he volunteered to join the team of Japanese thieves running across the sea. He originally wanted to cooperate with the Navy Zisang, took the Navy defense change map to lure the pirates to take the bait, and made an appointment with the navy to change the defense route again to annihilate them in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, there was an internal thief in the Navy. He even spread false news to stir up discord, which made the general suspect that he had never acted according to the plan. Instead, he was carried away by a nest of pirates and provoked a huge case of extermination of six villages along the coast. With heartache and anger, Wei Lin spent a long time planning to lead the pirates to a reef rapids and let them die in the shipwreck. He had already prepared himself. Several escaped pirates were killed at sea by him. This chart was recorded by him when he was cruising around and exploring. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "didn''t the old monk be reluctant to take out the chart before? Why did I give it to you later? "


    Jing Yuan kissed her earlobe and said, "it''s not because your ''old thing ten years ago'' frightened him."


    Zhuo Xi didn''t understand and asked, "why? I can only recognize that this sheepskin was ten years ago. What''s the story? "


    "Na Weilin is the only son of the Wei family. After the nest killed the pirate, he built the yunyin temple in order to atone for himself and benefit the people. More than ten years ago, the Wei family found him and strongly hoped that he would leave a drop of blood for the Wei family. They went up the mountain to beg for mercy again and again, and even his eighty old mother knelt down. He had to agree. He went back to his hometown and quietly married a wife. He got married for three months. After his wife was pregnant, he resolutely returned to yunyin temple. The parchment he used to imitate the chart last time was the same parchment that his wife packed for him when he returned to yunyin temple. He thought you had seen through and worried about the safety of his family, so he couldn''t offer the chart. "


    Zhuo Xi was silent, and then spit out a sentence, "how can he know that his wife must be pregnant with a son? Wan''s life is a daughter. Is he going to dive back? "


    The man knocked her on the head. "How do you focus on being different from others?"


    "Well, since he is so reluctant to give up even the chart, how can he promise you to go out and reorganize the Navy?" Zhuo Xi touched her head.


    "All the pirates on the secret island died when we found them a few days ago. Do you know why?"


    Zhuo Xi was silent again and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "is it difficult? They also got the epidemic?"


    Jing Yuan scraped her little nose, "my wife is intelligent, which is hard for ordinary people to reach. It is true that many of the death forms are very similar to the death symptoms of the epidemic spread in Zihe county. "


    Zhuo Xi suddenly realized, "I''ve been thinking, where did the black death come from? They brought it in. They raped the mother and daughter in the fishing village that day and left the virus here. Later, the people in the fishing village contacted the little daughter of the family and converged for the three members of their family. It may be that they gradually became ill. The epidemic spread slowly. "


    Jing Yuan sighed, "I''m lucky to have you here, otherwise when the capital city receives the memorial, I''m afraid the epidemic has spread everywhere, which is unimaginable."


    She touched his chest with her slender index finger and said, "how dare you bully me? One day I quit in a rage. Where can you find a rare queen like me who is both literate and martial, knows astronomy and geography, practices medicine with her left hand and saves people with her right hand? "


    Jing Yuan grabbed her finger, put it into his mouth, and stared at her. "It''s enough to have you alone in this life."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and bit his earlobe. "Now everyone in the palace knows that you have a ''Mrs. Yao''! How are you going to explain? "


    He turned over and pressed her again, "I''ll double compensate you now..."


    "Hey, no such..."

 Chapter 288

    The next morning, Jing Yuan went out early again.


    Chunzao, who was on duty last night, always felt as if he had heard a man''s voice in her mother''s bedroom. When he got up in the morning, he saw only Zhuo Xi. He only suspected that he had heard wrong.


    After Zhuo Xi had an early meal and explained in detail the epidemic related and women''s nursing college related matters with Liu, she announced that she was ready to leave for Kyoto the next day.


    It''s been almost a month since they left Kyoto. They have already passed the deadline for printing on the 15th day of the first month.


    Yesterday, Jing Yuan told her that the old die hards in the cabinet had written several letters to urge her.


    Liang Cheng absconded. Jing Hua received a letter a few days ago and quickly sent a new county magistrate to deal with Zihe County affairs. She had ordered wordless to check the situation around the epidemic and handed it over to them.


    Several people began to pack their bags back to Beijing.


    Liu was particularly flustered. According to the original plan, they were going to live in Junyao city for two days. When they returned to Beijing, they started directly from Junyao city. She had loaded several cars with special products in the South prepared for them, all in Junyao city. She just didn''t expect that the outbreak in Zihe County trapped them in the hospital for seven or eight days. As soon as this time is delayed, they naturally want to make up for it from the road. Therefore, the plan of going to Junyao city for a two-day stay was cancelled.


    When she was worried, supervisor Jiang poked his head at the door several times.


    She was a little upset and called her in to ask what it was.


    Manager Jiang hesitated and said, "it''s the martial master named Dong Zhong in the county yamen. He said he heard that the dignitaries were going to go. If he wanted to invite the dignitaries to move to the teahouse to listen to the opera, it would be regarded as a farewell."


    Liu''s lips curled. He just wanted to say, what''s his identity and face to invite the empress to the play, but he suddenly remembered what they shouted when they came out of the medical hall yesterday. He gave a clap in his heart. Did he reveal the identity of the empress?


    Was it because he thought that the empress Hengshu would leave Beijing recently and would win the praise of the people? Naturally, it would be beneficial and harmless. That''s why he revealed the news and asked the people to thank him personally?


    Looking at his behavior the day before yesterday, she thought Dong Zhong was smart. He invited two people to the play, but I don''t know what''s in it?


    Jiang Guanshi didn''t bother him when he saw the master meditating. He glanced in his eyes and saw the long healed Hibiscus coming in. He wanted to talk and stopped.


    Liu saw her and waved in. "What''s up?"


    Furong didn''t hide it. "Chen, the leader of Baolian club, asked for a meeting. He said he had arranged a new play and wanted to invite the two ladies to listen."


    Liu was surprised. Both of them came to invite them to the play. Is there really any good play to be staged?


    But this is the palace. No one can come in. She told Furong, "let Mr. Chen leave a post. If we are free, we will go and have a look."


    Furong took orders and left.


    Liu turned and said to manager Jiang, "go back to Dong Zhong and say we know."


    Supervisor Jiang also went away.


    Dong Zhong, who got the letter, kept muttering. What does that mean? Are you coming or not?


    He did not expect that the noble man came out of the medical school and hurried to leave without resting for two or three days. In such a hurry, I can''t salivate and invite you once a day?


    With a depressed mood, he returned to the teahouse and decided to start a new play no matter now or today. Even if the dignitaries don''t come to join in, it''s good to have a wind or two in your ears!


    The newly arrived county magistrate took office yesterday. He brought his familiar master. If his move can''t attract the attention of dignitaries, his future will come to an end


    In the palace, Liu thought about it and went to Mufeng garden.


    Zhuo Xi is chatting with the Spring Festival Gala, "... It''s only more than ten days to go back, and there''s everything in the palace. Don''t take these miscellaneous things... So as not to be cumbersome..."


    The Spring Festival Gala protested, "how can this work? There are more than ten days on the road! It''s easy to use. If you think of it on the road, you can''t regret dying... "


    "If you don''t, you won''t. If you go out, just make do with it for a while. It''s not as convenient as being at home."


    Liu smiled, "aunt, don''t save energy for them. They keep things and use them when they take them out. Only they know whether to weigh their hands or not... Who cares about bringing more teapots? "


    The Spring Festival Gala is happy, "it''s still the Lord Hou''s human body sticking to slaves and maidservants..."


    "Nephew and daughter-in-law, why are you here again? But what''s the matter? "


    Zhuo Xi motioned her to sit down and say.


    Liu sat down and said, "it''s nothing. I just came to see my aunt. What can I do for you?"


    "What can I do for you? There are just a few things. The Spring Festival Gala is not busy enough. "


    "It''s easy for my aunt to come to the south. As a result, she didn''t play anywhere. She spent so many days in the medical school..."


    "Why, you still want us to go to Junyao city?"


    Liu said hurriedly, "it''s not... Your time with uncle Liu is expensive, and we don''t have much delay..."


    "What''s that, just say it?" Zhuo Xi asked with a smile.


    Liu asked tentatively, "what''s the matter with my aunt this afternoon?"


    "Afternoon? "I''ll see if they''re going to clean up their things in the Spring Festival Gala tomorrow..." I''ll see if she''s going to pick up her things in the Spring Festival Gala.


    The Spring Festival Gala did not follow, "madam, do you have a purse? When I went out, I didn''t hold the money for you? Otherwise, how can you pay the bill? As you are, do you still want to eat overlord food? "


    Zhuo Xi and Liu Shi both laughed and couldn''t stand up. "Look, look, I just said, she has so many sentences waiting for me..."


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "Hey, what good program do you have in the afternoon to see me off?"


    Liu Shi blushed. "I just felt life and death a few days ago, but I didn''t have any preparation. I''m ashamed... But..." she told Dong Zhong and Du jiuying about inviting them to the theatre. Finally, she asked, "aunt, you see, the time is scheduled for Shenshi this afternoon. It''s only about an hour. Do you want to take a break and come back for dinner?"


    Zhuo Xi sank her face and glanced at several people in the house. She didn''t know why the Spring Festival Gala was, so she stopped living and waiting for orders. Zhuo Xi asked coldly, "in the morning, the Palace said to leave tomorrow and go back. Someone in the back foot immediately learned that he would invite us to the theatre... When did this palace become like a sieve?"


    The Spring Festival Gala and Chunqing were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.


    Liu also looked solemn. "It''s the nephew''s daughter-in-law''s poor management. The nephew''s daughter-in-law immediately called the slaves to ask."


    She got up and left.


    The spring outside the door rushed in and knelt on the ground, "madam, it''s the slave''s fault. Dong Zhong helped me a lot before. Yesterday, he begged me a thousand times and asked me to do him a favor. He said that if he got the time when my mother was going to leave, he would tell him at the first time. He said, he said, there was a surprise to show to my mother... When I saw that he was not a bad man, I promised... I was wrong, I dare not again... "


    Zhuo Xi tapped her finger on the table, "you said, he helped you a lot before? Tell me, how did he help you? "


    "Don''t say anything about buying Chuanpu. The maidservant had gathered many women outside the hospital to help sew clothes and masks. We didn''t know anything before. We sewed very fast when we saw that we were paid. Later, when the news of the epidemic spread, many women were afraid of getting sick and refused to go home. The slaves and maidservants were born with faces, and they refused to answer any request. He knocked on the neighbors'' doors everywhere and persuaded them one by one to make these white masks at home... Later, after having a new prescription, the maidservant asked people to send them to major medical centers, but he was told that the wild goat horn was hard to find. He called on a group of officers and soldiers to crouch on Zihe mountain day and night, and then captured more than a dozen wild goats alive... "


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "this man is a talent. He said there was a surprise to show, but what kind of surprise is it? " If so, he has made a lot of contributions to the epidemic. She has always been rewarded for her merits and punished for her faults. He made so much effort and hid behind. He just listened to the play. If he didn''t go, it would be too embarrassing.


    Chun Zao shook his head, "No."


    "In that case, we''ll go to a teahouse there." Zhuo Xi said to Liu.


    Liu looked at chunzao and agreed with a smile.


    Zhuo Xi said coldly, "early spring, you made a mistake and fined for three months."


    In the late afternoon, Zhuo Xi was walking out of Mufeng garden to get on the bus to the teahouse.


    It happened that the xuanyue Garden opposite also opened the door, and a tall and straight figure came out with a well-dressed lady.


    After seeing the Spring Festival Gala, he knelt down and said, "see the emperor."


    Liu was embarrassed and wanted to kneel down to ask for an ANN. Zhuo Xi took her in one hand.


    Liu didn''t know why, but he saw Zhuo Xi smiling at the two people opposite.


    The woman hurried two steps to salute, "see the queen."


    The man opposite is still expressionless.


    The Spring Festival Gala was a little worried and quietly stretched out his hand to pull the corner of La zhuoxi''s clothes.


    Liu Shi was also a little worried. She is worried about herself. Seeing the emperor, you can''t give a big gift. Are you waiting for the emperor to commit a crime?


    Zhuo Xi smiled more deeply, "no gift. I''m in a good mood today. I don''t mind if you meet each other with family etiquette. "


    Family gifts?


    Is the empress going to admit this, Mrs. Yao?


    The Spring Festival Gala was so urgent that she pulled her mother''s clothes and sweated. Madam, you have to be soft to the emperor. Why should you recognize this lady?


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "Spring Festival Gala, you all get up."


    Where dare you move in the Spring Festival Gala? Carefully stare at the emperor with your eyes and tail.


    The emperor is still expressionless.


    Zhuo Xi glared at him.


    But Mrs. Yao dared not delay any longer. She came and blessed her body again. She hardened her head and said, "Mrs. Huang, where are you going now?"


    The Spring Festival Gala jumped up and opened its eyes.


    Liu was also stunned and murmured, "sister-in-law Huang?"


    So, that man, not the emperor?

 Chapter 289

    At this time, the man came slowly, "I''ve seen sister-in-law Huang. Why hasn''t brother Huang come back? " The words were very sad. Zhuo Xi was in a good mood. "Yan Lan, can''t you see me alone? Do you have to pick up Yao Yao Yao? "


    Yao Yao opened her eyes wide and protested, "sister Huang, why do you say that? At least we used to live under the same roof... "


    Yan Lan said with a smile, "my younger brother, how can you have so much courage? I just don''t know how long I''ll stay here this time. I can''t bear to keep my wife alone... "


    Who wants him to live a good life and be carried over as a double?


    "Cough..." a voice sounded from behind, "Yan Lan, you really dare to say anything! Why don''t you go back to your zhaojialing? "


    "Sorry, Zhao Jialing is now renamed Yan Jialing..." Yan Lan said politely.


    The rest as like as two peas, dumb as a wooden chicken, the left and right sides of the two people are the same.


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "early spring, you don''t get up yet?! Kneel on the ground and wait for the red seal? "


    The Spring Festival Gala knelt down again. Several other people turned around on their knees and saluted the real Jing Yuan, "I''ve seen the emperor."


    Jing Yuan said, "no gift."


    The Spring Festival Gala was held up by several people, but they couldn''t return to God for a long time.


    No wonder Mrs. Yao is called Madam. No wonder the empress doesn''t worry about the peaceful singing and dancing in the xuanyue garden... No wonder the emperor never talks to them when he meets them... No wonder they always feel that the emperor''s aura is a little different... They thought it was because the emperor had a quarrel with the empress. They didn''t want to turn out that it was not the emperor at all?!


    It seems that it should be the emperor''s twin brother?


    The question is, when did the emperor have a twin brother?


    Jing Yuan had no time to pay attention to their mood. Cold voice said to Yan Lan, "it seems that Zihe county is too close!"


    Yan Lan immediately sweating, "no, no, no, my younger brother, this is not looking at my Jing and the empress''s old, just want to bring her over to talk about the old."


    I''m kidding. When the master remembered that there was still a lack of role players in Kyoto, he had to go all the way back to Beijing?


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. For so many days, where did she come to talk about what was old?


    Jing Yuan snorted coldly. Zhou Sheng''s domineering spirit was a little less. He turned and gently asked Zhuo Xi, "it''s sunny, but where is it?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "a man named Dong Zhong invited us to the play and said there was a surprise for me..."


    Liu''s head is covered with black lines... Is there such a message? Now, if the Emperor sees Dong Zhong, can Dong Zhong still have his life here?


    Sure enough, the emperor immediately sent out a cold feeling, "Oh, isn''t it? Then I also want to enjoy it and see what kind of play it is! " He also wants to see how a careless bag is bolder than heaven and dares to invite his queen to the play?


    Zhuo Xi raised her hand and asked, "Yan Lan, Yao Yao, why don''t you go together?"


    Just listening to the play. Just two more private rooms.


    Yao Yao dared to breathe a sigh of relief and reluctantly said with a smile, "we heard that there was a new play in today''s teahouse. We''re going to support it. It''s a coincidence that you''re going too. We''ll go together. "


    Jing Yuan suddenly appeared, and Liu couldn''t take the same car with Zhuo Xi. He quickly asked supervisor Jiang to arrange another carriage. Three cars rolled towards the teahouse.


    The teahouse is already overcrowded. It is said that a new play has begun.


    All private rooms on the second floor were vacated by Mr. Du, so as not to collide with noble people like last time.


    It suits zhuoxi''s heart.


    Yao LAN and Yao Yan are in the next room.


    Liu Shi has a separate room.


    She nestled in Jingyuan''s arms with satisfaction.


    The emperor is here. Naturally, someone is guarding outside the box. It won''t happen that he was kicked in the door last time.


    The seat is a circle of comfortable chairs around the table in front of the window, which is convenient for guests to drink tea and watch the performance in the downstairs lobby through the yarn in front of the window. The window screen can prevent people downstairs from peeping at the situation upstairs at the same time.


    Zhuo Xi sat on the wide chair directly opposite the window and waited eagerly.


    This scene is very much like a modern cinema.


    She suddenly had the feeling of dating and watching movies. She put one hand into his big palm and clasped her fingers. I couldn''t help sighing, "I really want to eat popcorn..."


    "Huh? What is popcorn? " The mellow and pleasant voice of a man sounded in her ear.


    She looked up at him with a smile, "is to put the corn kernels into a pan and stir them. When heated to a certain extent, they will burst into flowers! It''s delicious! " The technology is super simple, isn''t it difficult?


    The man snapped his fingers with another free hand and said, "you hear me? Why don''t you go? "


    She added excitedly, "Hey, remember to add honey..."


    Someone ran away with tears in the dark


    Less than a column of incense, when the opening Gong and drum sounded in the downstairs lobby, the man ran back with tears and directly lost a bag of lotus leaves.


    Zhuo Xi frowned at the black, green and black lotus leaf bag. She didn''t know how the paper was made over there by he Qian? We have to let him benefit the common people... Don''t people all over the world know that eating with such dirty looking lotus leaf bags not only affects their appetite, but also easily infects bacteria?


    However, when she carefully opened a crack and the familiar sweet heat wave came to her face, she could no longer care about the lotus leaf bag and directly grabbed a fragrant white popcorn in the middle and put it into her mouth.


    She groaned with enjoyment, "that''s nice..."


    A voice came from behind, huh?


    Why is it a rising tone?


    Zhuo Xi looked back at him blankly.


    See him staring at himself.


    She quickly looked up and down, and rolled her mouth with her hand. Didn''t she touch it?


    The man''s cold lips were hooked.


    Familiar with his facial expression, she immediately knew that it was his embarrassment.


    But what did he do to be sorry?


    While thinking blankly, she grabbed another handful of popcorn and stuffed it into her mouth.


    Then she saw his throat slip.


    She suddenly realized that she immediately stuffed a handful of popcorn into his mouth.


    Nima, can''t you speak?


    Although the people who like this are usually women and children, he doesn''t know. Novelty food is personal curiosity, okay?


    "Creak, creak" sounded beside the eardrum. She turned her head and glanced. Sure enough, the man frowned.


    She proudly grabbed another handful and stuffed it into her mouth. While chewing, she murmured, "if only it were sweeter..."


    The man felt cheated. He thought of something and bit her earlobe. "You said earlier that he was in a good mood today. Was it because he was... Comfortable last night?"


    Zhuo Xi blushed, a mouthful of popcorn stuck in her mouth, stared at him and said vaguely: * &%... & *!!!


    The feminine Zhang xiudan downstairs appeared in disguise. His character is a girl who grew up in the countryside and learned the method of treating diseases and saving people from an old man. Then one day, an army defending the city was attacked by the enemy. Passing through the village, the girl saved the general by chance. Later, the army received supplies and turned defeat into victory. Since then, the general took the woman with the army to treat the soldiers. The relationship between the general and the medical woman grew gradually. Later, the medical woman married the general and still fought with the army. The army kept moving forward. Once, the army attacked a rainforest. The soldiers fell ill in a large area, and soldiers died before they could wait for treatment. The doctor confirmed that it was an epidemic. A brother who had just lost his parents did not know that the forest was dangerous. In order to earn money to support himself and his sister, he went into the rain forest to cut firewood. He was also bitten by mosquitoes and infected with the disease. His sister dragged his brother''s sick body to the city for medical treatment. The epidemic spread quietly in the county and city, and my brother finally couldn''t support it and died. My sister is heartbroken. People die every day, and fear and anxiety pervade the county. Some medical schools have become hell on earth... It is the medical woman who, with five months of pregnancy, climbed mountains and cliffs, tasted all kinds of herbs, and fell off the cliff on a rainy night because she went to pick herbs. She was still alive. Finally, she found the holy medicine to understand the poison and saved the lives of soldiers and people. Since then, the title of "Mrs. medicine king" has gradually spread among the people and the military camp


    Although Zhuo Xi is very familiar with this plot, Zhang xiudan''s appearance is first-class, her acting skills are also first-class, and her singing is even first-class. And the miserable brother and sister, a family of three in the medical school... Still couldn''t help attracting her and making her cry


    She finally knew what the surprise Dong Zhong said was.


    Really


    Fortunately, I''ll leave here early tomorrow morning.


    Today''s play is new. Although many people in the medical school knew their identity that day, the spread of drama and reputation also took time


    She can foresee that if she continues to stay in Zihe County, it is estimated that the reputation of "Queen of medicine" will soon spread... Although she also likes to be praised, she is still not used to such high-end song litigation... You know, such a form of song merit litigation will be elegant art in future generations


    So the more she heard the back, the more excited she was. She looked forward to looking at the man behind her and wrote on her face, praise me, praise me, praise me!


    Well, she admitted that she is also an ordinary flesh and blood body and has an ordinary woman''s heart. Although all titles are empty numbers, why does she like it so much? Especially the praise from your man''s mouth?


    However, not only did he have no expression and completely ignored her express, but also what did he mean by his cold look?


    Someone praised her wife for being unhappy?


    She has a flat mouth. Forget it, don''t boast! Which rare?


    A pair of arms behind her tightened her more and more, and a low voice sounded behind her, "like this false name?!"


    She said angrily, "like it! Who doesn''t like false names?! Does your wife''s name not live up to my false name? "

 Chapter 290

    The man behind him heaved his chest violently and took a deep breath, "can you ignore your own safety for this false name? What cliff to climb?! Another taste of herbs? Xiaobai is not here again. What if she is poisoned? How many lives do you have? " At the end, there was a low roar.


    Her anger immediately went out, she shrunk her neck and said humbly, "they made it up! Where''s the cliff? I''m afraid of death, too, okay? Where is it poisoned? I''m not alive? "


    The man roared angrily, "let the flower go to receive the punishment!"


    She grabbed his arm and protested, "Hey, hey, what does it have to do with flowers?!" No, so why didn''t Hua report all the situation that day to Jing Yuan?


    She quickly squeezed out two tears and pretended to be pathetic and said, "honey, why did people finally stand on my side? Didn''t you make her hate me again? Next time I''m in trouble, if she has a grudge, I''m afraid she won''t do her best to protect me... "


    "She dares!"


    "She didn''t dare, but she also saved people. One point earlier and one point later, and one point more and one point less. Don''t you know the difference?"


    The man was silent and shouted out, "if someone pleads, the penalty will be halved!"


    She rolled her eyes, but if she changed such a small order, she should hang the responsibility on her own head. If she had less face, she would die?


    Hum, don''t you want to sell her man? Then save more people. " She''s right. Personal dark guards need loyalty, but sometimes they also need some emotional gratitude.


    Zhuo Xi pulled down his tight arm, "well, well, people admit their mistake. They won''t do it again next time. It''s just in time this time. The epidemic is dangerous. I can only take a risk. But there is really no cliff, just a small hillside... "


    "How dare you say?"


    "No, no, I promise, no next time..." she turned her head and looked at the man''s beautiful side face.


    The man closed his mouth and was obviously still angry.


    She turned her head a little wider and twisted her neck to kiss the corner of his mouth.


    The corners of the cold mouth are soft.


    But still indifferent, obviously still angry.


    As soon as her eyes turned, she pasted them in his ear and said word by word, "in fact, I don''t have to have this false name. I just want to stand side by side with you and see the complexity of the world..."


    She could feel a slight shock in her chest against her back behind her.


    His low voice was a little hoarse. "I don''t want these? I said, I want to share the world and rule peace with you. Isn''t that to let you stand side by side with me? "


    She put her backhand around his head and said lazily, "it''s different. You gave it to me. What I want to return to you is an unprecedented peace and prosperity, an eternal emperor without future!"


    There was a silence behind her, and the man behind hugged her more closely.


    Still not interested?


    After a long time, a voice gently sounded, "do you know that for me, your safety is more important than everything?"


    This is his attitude as a man and a husband.


    She said back in a hurry, "I''m not very..."


    Before the word "good" came out, his kiss had been pressed hard.


    ¡­¡­


    With so much strength, can''t you calm down?


    Zhuo Xi''s mind turned sharply and remembered the last section of the play. While the people talked about the praise of "Mrs. medicine king", they did not forget to praise the general who could "know talents with insight"


    Dong Zhong flattered me


    She turned her head and quit the kiss, and immediately flattered, "I didn''t listen to the man singing. It''s because of the master who knows talents like you that excellent talents like me stand out..."


    Why does it still sound like praising yourself?


    However, the so-called general''s part in the play is really few, and he only comes out at the end. Isn''t it too perfunctory?


    Is the Lord of Dong zhongzao''s country here?


    She was worried, but the man behind her cheerfully told the five rivers outside the door, "look!"


    ¡­¡­


    The man didn''t recognize his part? Or did the man not recognize Dong Zhong''s perfunctory? Or did your poor flattery work?


    After the curtain call of the drama, Dong Zhong and Chen jiuying actually kept rubbing and waiting by the stairs. They didn''t even bother to go up to collect the heated discussions in the lobby. Important people are in the private room. Who has time to deal with the ideas of ordinary fans?


    I heard the shrill voice of the five rivers at the door of the private room in the middle shouting "where is the leader? When the master had a reward -- "they rushed out immediately.


    Wuhe looked at them strangely and asked, "are both class leaders?"


    Dong Zhong took a step back in embarrassment.


    Chen jiuying came to salute, "my Lord, the small one is Chen jiuying, the leader of Baolian club. Little thank you for your reward! "


    Dong Zhong watched him take the plate covered with red silk, nodded and bowed and asked, "Sir, the small one is the writer of the script of the play, but I don''t know what your opinions and suggestions on the play?"


    The five rivers looked at him proudly, "you have all been rewarded before you come for advice?" Isn''t that a slap in the face?


    Dong Zhong was embarrassed. After thinking for a while, he said, "the play started today. I''m still going to discuss with leader Chen about traveling around counties and counties with Baolian club, but I''m afraid there are some deficiencies in singing or plot. Therefore, I''m here to ask you. What can I add?"


    Wuhe listened to the sound in the room with bated breath. He believed that both masters heard Dong Zhong''s words. Sure enough, at the next moment, a woman''s low voice came, "the end of the year is my mother''s birthday. Why not let Baolian society go all the way north and arrive in Kyoto before the end of the year?"


    Then there was a man''s low "um" sound.


    Five rivers hurried to tell, and after that, he asked, "play well, you have great fortune." Although the master said "um", he could also hear the emperor''s great joy from that tone.


    Dong Zhong was so excited that he couldn''t help kneeling down and banging his head.


    After receiving the reward, Chen jiuying, who stood on one side, was also very excited. He knelt down and kowtowed with him.


    Listen to the meaning of the one inside that his Baolian club can not only go all the way north to Kyoto, but also enter the palace to celebrate the Empress Dowager''s birthday? This is a great honor! With such a halo, will your own Baolian Club worry about no one being invited in the future? You don''t have to wait in this teahouse every day for someone to play, and then wait for a reward like the singer


    Also, when we get to Kyoto, we can really get rid of that person?


    He couldn''t help getting more excited


    On the way back, several people in the Spring Festival Gala stood outside and listened to the whole process of Mrs. medicine king, all chattering in a carriage behind. From Zhang xiudan''s appearance to the drumming to match the plot, from the sister who sold herself to save her brother to a family of three in the hospital... Every detail has been discussed dozens of times. So that this discussion has been running through their long journey back to Kyoto... Because they almost heard the hot discussion of the people who were also rushing out of the city along the way, talking about the anecdotes that they got the help of the "medicine king and Queen" and many people escaped from death


    The next morning, Liu insisted on seeing them off.


    Jing Yuan had to ride a tall horse and pace beside the carriage.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the plan of establishing a women''s nursing college written by Liu last night in the carriage.


    It is expected that the female students who can be recruited in the early stage are basically children from poor families, and their literacy rate is low. Therefore, we should start recruitment from the young, and carry out basic literacy education after recruitment. So it''s not so fast for your college to form a climate. He said he already knew that in Kyoto, a special person will be sent to take charge of the affairs related to the number of sanitary teeth. The outbreak of such a large epidemic in Zihe County itself has considerable case research value. We should pay close attention to the staff as soon as possible to gather the pharmacists and doctors in the major hospitals in the whole county, summarize and integrate them, and form medical records and prescription examples. Only in this way can the spread of such diseases in the future be of reference value.


    Moreover, the person sent from Jingyuan to investigate yesterday replied that as expected, dozens of similar cases also appeared in Wucheng county and jimaoling. Liu has sent two letters quickly, one to his husband Dingyuan Hou and the other to the newly arrived county magistrate.


    She is a female family member and is not suitable for ordering directly with the county magistrate, so she can only write a letter to inform the situation and ask him to send experienced doctors to the neighboring county to help deal with and control the epidemic situation.


    Although Liu doesn''t understand how to treat the disease and save people, he probably knows the control process of the epidemic after participating in the whole process of the epidemic. In addition, she can''t help, but she is still familiar with providing meals, isolation clothes, masks and so on. Therefore, she spontaneously organized a logistics support team composed of women and is working overtime to prepare clothes, masks and other related materials. At the same time, I deeply felt that the establishment of this nursing team was also very urgent, so I wrote an implementation plan overnight. Take advantage of the time to see off the sixth uncle and sixth aunt and have a look at the empress. After this time, if you want to contact the queen again in the future, you can only communicate by letter.


    Zhuo Xi looked at it carefully and put forward some modification suggestions from time to time. Liu''s proposal for the first time to participate in the operation of the school of government affairs is very great. She has never mentioned the whole plan. She has never participated in the implementation of the school of government affairs for the first time. The key problem now is that there are no people. But this doesn''t seem to be what she wants to consider. This is Jing Hua''s territory. He should be able to solve it.


    After watching it for about half an hour, I finally finished it. When I lifted the curtain, I found that the carriage was almost motionless.


    Liu Shi also found it and hurriedly whispered to the front, "what''s the matter?"


    The driver was speechless, and the five rivers on one side answered when they stood upside down, "Madam Hui, the epidemic situation has not been relieved. Those who enter and leave the city gate feel the pulse one by one according to the original instructions." They didn''t reveal their identity. Naturally, they were in line with the people.


    Zhuo Xi chuckled. The newly arrived county magistrate was sensible and carried out her orders to the end.


    This is a common means when the epidemic spreads. The neighbors in the city supervise each other. Once there is a suspected case, they should immediately go to several major medical centers for isolation, and those in and out of the city gate should also be strictly investigated. Just slow down the pulse and measure the temperature. Just send more doctors.

 Chapter 291

    Zhuo Xi leaned slightly relaxed on the cushion of the carriage.


    Under such strict control, the terrible black death will slowly disappear


    There are several people in line in front talking.


    "Lao Zhang, I heard your daughter married to Junyao city. Is there nothing wrong there?"


    "It''s all right. My old man just received a letter from his daughter, worried that my old man was alone here and no one took care of him, so he opened another yard to pick me up and live there for some time. "


    "You are still blessed!"


    The man sighed and said slowly, "when it comes to blessing, we Zihe county are really blessed! If it hadn''t happened to be here, I don''t know how many people would be killed by this epidemic! God bless you! "


    "No. I feel sorry for the family of three dogs next door. After a trip to the countryside to drink wedding wine, they fell ill one after another. Now there are only three dogs left alive to come out of the medical school... I heard that he also went to the country relatives'' house. There are no more relatives who have just had a wedding... "


    "Thanks to... How many people died in our whole Zihe County... Where did the laoshizi epidemic come from?"


    Another man lowered his voice and said, "I heard it''s the Japanese thieves..."


    It took a long time for Lao Zhang to make a voice. "You say it''s true?"


    "Lie to you, old Zhang, can you eat? Money reward? This time, the leader was cruel and said that he wanted a regular navy to deal with the Japanese thieves... "


    "Oh, if this is true, it will be another great good thing! Can''t my old man pick up his craft again? "


    "You old head, just thinking about your stuttering! Why don''t you want it to be true, and the fishing village can prosper slowly... There has been no fish in our county for many years! "


    "Take a look, and say I''m thinking about food, aren''t you..."


    "Ah, ha ha, isn''t it? My daughter-in-law nursed her children a few days ago. She couldn''t find fish soup everywhere. "


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi and Liu Shi listened quietly in the car.


    Liu asked in a hoarse voice for a long time, "Aunt Liu, you said that women can be officials in politics and benefit the people in the future, but it''s true?"


    Zhuo Xi raised her eyebrows. "Naturally, it''s true. You know the imperial examination system? Next year, at the latest, the imperial court should publish a list of women''s imperial examination system to recruit women all over the world as officials. Of course, there are not only female officials in Kyoto City. In the future, you women''s nursing college will be all female officials. Even the officials of the health government office responsible for the management of female doctors must have female officials! "


    Liu was not shocked for the first time. His eyes showed eager colors. He asked eagerly, "that, that, that I..."


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t help reaching out and touching her head, "nephew and daughter-in-law, don''t you find that you''re going to be the dean of the women''s nursing college in Junyao area?"


    Hey?


    What is the official position of the dean?


    If you want to be a female official, you didn''t mention it in your letter to your husband yesterday? Would you like to write another letter to him?


    As if seeing the battle between heaven and man in her heart, Zhuo Xi smiled and said, "the president is the female official who is always responsible for all the affairs of the whole college. You can report anything directly to the palace. Are you worried that Hua''er won''t agree? "


    Liu blushed and nodded gently.


    Zhuo Xi pinched her face, which was so red that it was dripping out of the water. "There will be an order from the palace soon. Do you guess whether he will receive the order, or will he receive the order?"


    Liu''s eyes were round and he knew that his aunt had been used to joking, but once she put up the shelf of "this palace", she still had no jokes.


    She said quietly, "how dare you disobey the Queen''s orders?"


    "Yes, so you should never believe the lie that a woman''s virtue is talent. As long as you believe in yourself and have a heart, nothing can be done. However, it''s easy to say but complicated to do. From construction to operation, the whole college can not be completed in a few years. You have to deal with the eyes and comments around you from time to time. Are you ready? "


    Liu nodded vigorously, "I have lived in the eyes and comments of others since I was a child. At that time, I was not crushed, and now I won''t!"


    Zhuo Xi also nodded, "this is a good thing for the country and the people. Generally, no one will stop or destroy it, but it is a model to create a new river. Once it works, it will affect the future for thousands of years. So you have to be careful. " Not a confidant, it''s really hard to trust.


    Liu knocked three heads on the ground. "Empress, don''t worry. My concubine will try her best to do it well."


    Zhuo Xi motioned her to get up, pinched her hand and asked, "but before you get really busy, you''d better solve a major event in life first! Otherwise, Hou Dingyuan will hate the palace... "


    Liu was at a loss.


    Zhuo Xi whispered something close to her ear.


    Liu immediately blushed with shame.


    Zhuo Xi patted her hand, "but you''re still young! The road ahead is so long... Your life will be more and more wonderful! "


    She and Jing Hua have been married for more than a year, and there is no sign of pregnancy. I''m afraid that her nephew heard that a woman''s premature childbirth would affect her health last time.


    Thinking of this, she looked at Liu''s eyes more and more warm.


    Sure enough, Liu was very restless. His slapped face was red and asked with a little doubt, "Aunt Liu and Aunt Liu, when I left the boudoir, my mother said that I would give birth early and early... But my husband and husband said, I''m too young... Aunt Liu and Aunt Liu, I''m 16... Not too young... But I haven''t been pregnant... Have I, Is it me... I dare not go to the doctor to see... "


    She trembled and dangerously stretched out her arm. It was obvious that she wanted to ask the queen to diagnose her pulse.


    Zhuo Xi laughed, slapped her hand and said seriously, "listen to your husband, what''s the hurry!"


    Liu retracted his wrist like a little rabbit and breathed a sigh, "six aunts!"


    Zhuo Xi touched her head again. "It''s hard for you, too. You''ve married all the way to the south. You can''t touch your mother-in-law''s elders, and your mother-in-law''s elders can''t be around... Who don''t you ask me about these things? Don''t be afraid. You''re really young now. Don''t get pregnant and have children too early. It''s easy to hurt yourself. It''s not urgent to have children after a few years. Birch is still young. He''s not in a hurry. What''s your hurry? It''s still a few years before the college will officially run. Just prepare slowly. "


    Liu bowed his head.


    "Madam, Wuliting is here," he whispered silently outside


    Liu Shi was stunned. He had been out of the city for five miles just now?


    Zhuo Xi got out of the gap they had opened and jumped out of the carriage.


    Liu Shi also followed out.


    Zhuo Xi patted her on the shoulder, "I must say goodbye when I send you thousands of miles away. That''s it. Go back. "


    Liu Shi looked at the emperor with a calm face on the horse and knew that he could not send it again. He blessed his body and said, "may the sixth uncle and sixth aunt have a safe journey."


    Zhuo Xi nodded, thought about it and said, "when he Qian comes to preside over the overall situation in the future, the palace sees that Dong Zhong is clever and skilled in writing. If you have a chance, you can introduce him." After all, he Qian came here as a light pole commander. Specific things still need to be handled by people familiar with the local situation.


    Liu nodded, confused.


    Zhuo Xi got on the carriage with a smile. Jing Yuan immediately got down from the horse and directly got into the carriage.


    Liu Shi watched the procession disappear far away from the official road before she got on the carriage back to the city.


    Thinking about the last word the queen said, she decided to call Dong Zhong to meet her when she returned to Zihe county.


    In the carriage, Jing Yuan lazily put his head on Zhuo Xi''s leg and said bitterly, "what can you say all the way? Didn''t expect me to be out in the sun? "


    Zhuo Xi pinched his handsome face, "your skin is like a congealed fat, and your lips are like ruby. Pinching it all seems to be able to pinch water, which makes me envy, envy and hate. Why do you blow the wind and bask in the sun?"


    He patted her hand. "You can only touch this creamy skin. If the wind wrinkles and the sun darkens, where can you pinch it?"


    Zhuo Xi giggled and simply pinched his cheek with both hands. "Even if it''s wrinkled and black, the palace doesn''t dislike it. It''s a big deal that Xiaobai becomes Xiaohei!"


    He rubbed and pedaled twice, put his head on her shoulder, and lifted her chin with one hand. "Why, what do you like is a little black face? Like Dong Zhong? "


    Zhuo Xi looked at him with disgust, "can you have some taste and vision?"


    He looked up and down at himself and expressed satisfaction. "Your taste and vision are still good."


    "Look at your narcissism."


    He buried himself in the nest of her neck and nibbled gently.


    Zhuo Xi relaxed and giggled itchily. They made a lot of noise for a long time before they lay down on the cushion of the carriage and talked.


    "How can you think of introducing Dong Zhong?"


    "Haven''t you seen the girl''s spring heart rippling in spring morning? If you don''t praise him a little, where will he come to me to propose marriage in the future? "


    ¡­¡­


    ¡­¡­


    Jing Yuan is full of black lines. He thought that Dong Zhong''s talents were appreciated


    She sighed, "spring is a few years old, and I don''t know how to marry in the future... It''s really worrying..."


    "I think you''re really worried. Even your niece and daughter-in-law have to tell when to have children."


    She said angrily, "I didn''t think about her body?"


    "Hey? You said last time that Mrs. Yu said it himself. You are twenty years old this year? "


    Uh... She frowned, "what? Do you think I''m old? " When I first met him, maybe I was only seventeen, but I was short because of long-term malnutrition. It''s been three years... Not twenty?


    Jing Yuan had pressed her lips with one finger, and the other hand slipped into her skirt and said in a low voice in her ear, "I just want to say that you feel much better now than that bean tooth vegetable..."


    Zhuo Xi blushed, opened her mouth and bit his fingers, which made him more dark in the depths of his eyes.


    As he kissed the corner of her mouth slowly, he asked silently, "you said before that the woman is too young, and the child born may be stupid and weak... In fact, I want to know if we can regenerate a more intelligent baby than Xiao Yu''s son?"

 Chapter 292

    "I Miss Xiao yu''er so much. I don''t know how he is. "


    "Didn''t Mother Wu just send a letter saying that he looked for Gao and gained some weight?"


    "She only reports good news, not bad news. If there is an estimate of head fever, she won''t tell us I don''t know if Xiao yu''er has had a good meal and sleep... Do you miss us... "


    Jingyuan rubbed her hair and sighed, "this boy has a little partner to play with. Where will he think of his parents?"


    He remembered his previous agreement with Wang Feng and said, "in two years, let Wang Qin, Wang Feng''s son, and Quercus son go to the palace to study with the eldest prince?"


    Zhuo Xi closed her eyes and made a sound. She didn''t care too much. Her mind was full of Xiao yu''er crawling on the Kang and playing. Suddenly, her heart was like an arrow.


    Jing Yuan said again, "did you promise? Don''t go back. "


    Huh? Did she promise anything? Zhuo Xi became alert.


    Just looking for two to read with?


    Wait... The two people he just said are


    After two times in her mind, she picked up her thumb and index finger, squeezed the meat in one of his places, and twisted it hard, "OK, you have a deep mind. Why do you need to say hello two years in advance to let that fart child enter the palace?" When she said it, she found that she didn''t swear for a long time?


    "Hey... What a little fart! You should be called your aunt according to your generation! You are so kind to Hua''er and huan''er that you have no reason to hate a little baby less than two years old. "


    The Queen''s anger broke out and continued to swear, "do I hate the little baby? I despise you for your conspiracy! If you want that fart child to enter the palace, you can''t say it openly? "


    The speechless and five rivers sitting on both sides of the driver''s seat outside trembled involuntarily, looked at each other, and saw shock in each other''s eyes


    A man said he was wronged. He grabbed her with both hands, raised her hands over her head, combined them together, grabbed them with one hand, turned the other hand over her body, and took photos at the thickest place, "don''t go to the house and uncover tiles in three days!"


    She was so angry that her eyes were red. "You have to use tricks in front of me... You have to hit me... Woo..." it''s useless to burst out rude words


    What about being honest with each other and not cheating each other?


    "But just take two children into the palace to accompany Xiao yu''er. How can you be so angry?"


    She opened her mouth and found that the slightest trace of jealousy at the bottom of her heart could not be said.


    He softened his tone and hugged her in his arms. "Anyway, it''s also the mother''s direct grandson. Wang Feng is going to live in the palace sooner or later... Wang Feng is a little uneasy after being handed over the handsome seal. That''s what I said years ago. I''ll let him go to the south to open up territory. It''s supposed to calm his heart, huh? "


    Is it not only the heart of an Wangfeng, but also the heart of an he, the emperor? With hostages in hand, aren''t you afraid of his rebellion? She blinked, and the step was well... "Well... Why did you die? It''s not on you. You don''t hurt, do you? "


    He caught her finger on his chest and moved it behind him. "Come on, call you back!"


    ¡­¡­


    They went all the way back to Kyoto.


    But I don''t know that the city of Kyoto has been turned over for a long time.


    First, the new year passed. A few days later, it came out that the emperor occasionally felt cold and refused to visit. After the 15th Lantern Festival, it was supposed to start printing to the court immediately. As a result, the eunuch said, "the emperor is ill and will not go to the court for the time being!"


    As a result, the wait was several days.


    In the original general administrative treatment, if the cabinet can''t get the seal of jade seal, it is also feasible to have the joint seal of six cabinet ministers, but Naihe hasn''t opened the seal, and all the seals are sealed in one place


    Gongsun Li and Xichi couldn''t help themselves. The memorials delivered to the cabinet were almost filled with the cabinet office. Go to the imperial medical department to inquire about the news. The imperial medical department only said that the emperor''s pulse was not very stable, but it was no big problem and still needed to rest.


    The two people were surprised. Considering that this illness had lasted for more than half a month, the emperor wouldn''t be seriously ill, would he? He went to Zichen hall many times and was shut down. The two even sent he Qian to the Ning''an palace to explore the atmosphere with the preparations of the health government office. As a result, they were stunned that they couldn''t enter the Ning''an palace after grinding their lips for a long time. The Empress Dowager did not ask about political affairs for a long time. They rushed forward for fear that it would lead to greater suspicion.


    What was more terrible was that some of them finally found that the big supervisor of Wuhe, who had been in charge of the size of Zichen hall, had not appeared.


    I asked people to inquire about Ning''an palace immediately. I found that the familiar palace maids and eunuchs who served close to me had disappeared, leaving only a few hidden peripheral palace maids.


    The cabinet became nervous and began to have some bad speculation. I think the best way is to find an old woman with good grades to inquire about the Empress Dowager.


    The first thing they thought of must be the Wu family, the empress''s family. If Mrs. Wu or Mrs. Wu comes forward, it is reasonable to say that she is in laws with the Empress Dowager and worry about the safety of her granddaughter and daughter. However, although Lord Wu has the respect of Uncle Pingyang, his official rank has only four lives, which is still far from the cabinet.


    After such a hesitation, two or three days have passed.


    Finally, Mrs. Gongsun came forward. When Miss Wu came out of the cabinet, she was a Quanfu person, and she still had some face and friendship. She entered Wu''s residence and stayed for half a day. The next day, Mrs. Wu Liu and Mrs. Wu handed over a sign and went into the palace to see the queen. The old lady has a sign to enter the palace directly. She has never used it. Therefore, the bodyguard was also very respectful and knew that it must be important to let the old lady who knew how to advance and retreat into the palace. After Liu Ming left the palace, she couldn''t let the old lady walk alone.


    When they arrived at Ning''an palace, they got an unexpected negative answer. They turned to Ci''an palace to see the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager is teasing Xiao yu''er and huan''er to play. After the Lantern Festival, oak and Xiao Yao went back. However, there are two little babies in the palace, which are not so cold. When the old lady of the Wu family asked for a meeting, she understood half of it. She scolded the emperor and empress in her heart, straightened her clothes and invited the two relatives of the Wu family to come in for an interview.


    The old lady and Liu Shi made a big gift to the Empress Dowager before sitting on the small stool given by the Empress Dowager.


    The old lady said, "it''s old for the Empress Dowager to rush and harass her. I had a bad dream last night. I remembered that I hadn''t seen the eldest prince for a long time. My daughter-in-law also remembered very much, so I hurried into the palace. At present, we are relieved to see the prince happy and healthy. "


    The Empress Dowager smiled, "what did the old lady say? The eldest prince is also the grandson of the Wu family. When you miss him, you can visit the palace at any time. The AI family was also idle, so they called two children in front of them. The Ci''an palace looked more lively. "


    Liu Shi took the opportunity to say, "I have nothing to do at home. I made two small clothes for the eldest prince. I wanted to present them to the empress, but I didn''t want to throw myself into the air in Ning''an palace. I don''t know... "


    The Empress Dowager knew that her daughter had disappeared from the palace and would be worried. She said softly, "the two in laws are worried. The emperor and the queen do have some things. They will call you into the palace to talk about the past in a few days..."


    The old lady and Liu were relieved. The palace was calm. It didn''t look like something big had happened. The Empress Dowager''s words are also a reassurance.


    Liu Shi also said, "the emperor and the empress manage everything every day. Sometimes they are busy. We''re not thinking that sister Ru will be out of the cabinet in another six months. I couldn''t make up my mind about some things. Sister Ru had a good relationship with the empress, so I wanted to ask her to show me. "


    The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "since the empress is busy at the moment, Mrs. Wu will see to it. When it was done, he wrote a fold and handed it in. If the empress has a will, she will certainly send it to the Wu house. Wu Fu''s people can rest assured. "


    I can''t come back for a while. I''m afraid I''ll have to wait for some time.


    Liu Shi thought.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the old lady and the Empress Dowager talked about the daily life of the eldest prince.


    "Although Xiao yu''er could barely stand and walk two steps, he climbed very fast. Short arms and short legs are strong. Once, the AI family took two steps to hold him. He stepped on the AI family, and the AI family almost couldn''t hold him. Fortunately, the nursing mother is protecting him... I don''t dare to hold him easily after mourning for my family... "


    ¡­¡­


    After a while, the old lady of the Wu family and Wu Fu left the palace with each other.


    The impatience in the cabinet suddenly quieted down.


    After further inquiry, the female officials of the inner house department in charge of the Queen''s mother handled the inner house affairs as usual, and everything was in good order.


    Gongsun Li couldn''t help wiping sweat on his forehead


    Since then, the six ministers of the cabinet and the people of the walking department have performed their respective duties. Except for not issuing official documents, the rest work as usual.


    After a few days, good news finally came. The early morning begins on the 28th day of the first month.


    They returned to Kyoto on the 27th of the first month.


    When I came back, it took only seven days to arrive.


    Zhuo Xi was bumped by the carriage and felt several car shocks by someone... It''s called "honeymoon"... As soon as she returned to the comfortable bed in the bedroom, she wanted to curse her mother... What kind of transportation is this? Wow, traveling is not enjoyment, is it a crime on the cliff?


    What a loss!


    Especially the day before yesterday, what happened in Anbei County, a neighboring city, she still hasn''t had a good breath!


    If she hadn''t noticed years ago that the emperor wanted to go to the southwest border and reorganize a navy, she would have used this bad idea to go to the distant Zihe county and take the "annual leave" she finally won?


    For nearly a month, I could have accompanied Xiao yu''er to roll in bed


    Eh? Where''s Xiao yu''er?


    She felt comfortable for a while before she remembered how quiet the bedroom was?


    When he called someone to ask, he knew that Xiao yu''er had been living in Ci''an palace after his mother and didn''t come back.


    She felt her scalp numb


    No, after Jing Yuan has handled the affairs of Zichen hall, let him go to the empress mother and bring Xiao yu''er back!


    But when I think of my son''s soft little face in the Ci''an palace next door, I can''t touch it or kiss it. I can''t wait for a moment

 Chapter 293

    Let someone ask the emperor. It''s said that it''s going to be late today. Don''t wait for him to eat dinner


    Who''s waiting for him to have dinner?


    I just want him to be cannon fodder in Ci''an palace


    Zhuo Xi struggled. Finally, he washed again, changed his clothes, hardened his head and took a soft sedan to Ci''an palace.


    When she arrived at the Ci''an palace, the Empress Dowager had just started her nap. She was listening to mammy Su tell her about the recent Opera Troupe in Beijing.


    Zhuo Xi made a big gift to the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager didn''t pass a look and asked mammy Su to continue.


    Zhuo Xi winked at the Spring Festival Gala behind her. The Spring Festival Gala immediately sent a brocade box.


    Mammy stopped just when she reached the break, and didn''t go on.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly knelt forward and took two steps, "empress mother, this is the South China Sea Pearl produced by the seaside of Zihe county. You can make the big one string into beads for fun, and the small one can be ground into powder, applied or taken orally..."


    The Empress Dowager still didn''t look at it.


    Mammy Su looked at the brocade box pestled in front of her. She didn''t take it or not. She looked at the Empress Dowager awkwardly.


    The Empress Dowager also looked at her. "Xiao su''er, did you just talk about Yunfu society? What are their specialties? "


    Mother Su glanced awkwardly at Zhuo Xi, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "I heard that there are flowers under the eyes, shooting halberds at the gate, Wang Lang''s mother, selling horses as maces..."


    Before she finished, the Empress Dowager said coldly, "invite them to sing the" Wang Lang''s mother "another day to see if the feelings of mother and son in the world can enter the eyes of our deep palace women! In case someone leaves his son every once in a while and wants to be carefree... "


    She is really more unjust than Dou E


    Zhuo Xi was sweating and didn''t know how to connect.


    The Spring Festival Gala is more urgent than her with a brocade box.


    She saw how much her master had suffered these days and how many people she had saved. She really didn''t have a "carefree" life... Er, the days on the way didn''t count


    But when the masters talk, where can she interrupt


    What''s more, the Empress Dowager said to mother su. She ignored her master at all, let alone her existence as a slave


    Mother Su was also clever. She had an idea as soon as her eyes turned and smiled, "empress dowager, isn''t it a daughter-in-law to visit her mother right now? Why do you want to be far away? "


    Zhuo Xi was so happy that he remembered a song that later generations had learned to get close to a senior official who was fascinated by Beijing opera. When he thought about it, he picked it up easily. When he was short, he turned into a kneeling position. He covered his sleeves and sang, "I''m like a bird in a cage. It''s difficult to spread its wings. I''m like a tiger leaving the mountain alone. I''m like a wild goose flying away from the south. I''m like a shallow water dragon trapped on the beach. In those days, there was a bloody battle on the verdant mountain, which only killed the blood into the river and piled the bones into the mountain; Now in Zihe County, there is an epidemic, and the people are suffering from the disease. How can they ignore it; Blockade the medical center and heaven to grab life. Zihe mountain looks for an elixir to save the patients; I want to go back to Beijing to see my mother, but I''m far away. Miss my mother can''t help breaking her liver and intestines. Miss my mother can''t help crying on her chest. It''s hard to see my mother, unless it''s a dream reunion... "


    For a long time, she sang for three or five minutes. The singing voice called a sad and helpless. When she sang to the back, she couldn''t help crying.


    The Empress Dowager had long heard tears and cried bitterly with mammy su.


    The Spring Festival Gala hugged the brocade box in his hand. How do you feel wet cheeks and hazy eyes when you are stunned?


    Zhuo Xi''s last aria was very long. When the last ending was stopped, he felt his cheeks wet and itchy. When he touched it with his hand, he found that there were clear tears hanging on his face.


    A grass mud horse galloped by in my heart. It''s so elegant and artistic, but how can you shock yourself and cry by adapting and performing a aria?


    The Spring Festival Gala couldn''t help but "plop" knelt down, cried and poured oil on the fire, "empress dowager, empress, she''s really hard, and now she''s pregnant. She can''t stand such great sorrow and joy..."


    Before Zhuo Xi could cover her mouth, a landmine exploded.


    The Empress Dowager also looked confused. One moment she cried bitterly, and the next moment she was shocked by ecstasy. She rushed over and shouted with her "son ah son ah". She didn''t know whether to cry or laugh. She was so excited that she persuaded her for a long time. After pulling her, she quickly sat on the seat. First, she asked nervously, "Oh, my little ancestor, you''re looking for medicine and running thousands of miles. Can you have a safe day? When did you get pregnant? How long? What about my little princess? "


    Zhuo Xi''s head can''t keep up. How can a few words transition from accusation to having a daughter?


    Mother Su quickly brought a cup of ginseng tea and said happily, "empress, this is the newly brewed ginseng tea. Do you think it can be used? Empress dowager, after kneeling for so long just now, the Empress Dowager took the eldest brother''s strength to sing that song, so she had to have a rest, didn''t she? "


    The Empress Dowager nodded hurriedly, "you drink two salivas first, slow down." She turned to mother Su and said, "hurry up and go to the side hall to see if the emperor woke up at noon?"


    Mother Su immediately answered.


    Zhuo Xi took a sip of ginseng tea slowly and said with a sigh of relief, "don''t worry, empress mother. I haven''t confirmed it yet. I was a little upset two days ago. I was just suspicious. I still can''t feel my pulse. Don''t listen to the Spring Festival Gala. If you''re just dizzy on the way, won''t you be happy in vain? "


    The Empress Dowager took a look at the Spring Festival Gala.


    The Spring Festival Gala knelt down and kowtowed, "maidservant, maidservant is also anxious. My mother forgives me."


    The Empress Dowager waved her hand and asked her to get up. "The empress mother is not an outsider. How can she not tell the mourning family about such a great wedding?"


    Zhuo Xi held one of her arms. "Empress mother, I''m afraid you''ll be happy in vain. I don''t want to tell you until the diagnosis is made. If you don''t believe me, ask the imperial doctor to come and have a look... I can''t touch anything now... "


    The Empress Dowager patted her hand, "well, you are a doctor yourself. You know what''s going on in your heart, but you can''t hide it from the mourning family whether it''s good or bad!"


    Zhuo Xi nodded cleverly.


    The Empress Dowager said with red eyes, "you girl, you can''t hear a joke. It''s just that you have another good singing voice, so that your tears can''t stop. Where did this play come from? It doesn''t sound ordinary. "


    Zhuo Xi said coquettishly, "empress mother, this is a singing I heard when I was in Zihe county. I just heard mammy Su mention it, so I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha. I''m in the south. I really miss you and Xiao yu''er... "


    The Empress Dowager Su Su said, "you just sang. You met a disease in Zihe County, but really?"


    Zhuo Xi said lightly, "well, it''s a little more serious than the hand, foot and mouth disease we found in Kyoto before. But fortunately, we found the elixir in Zihe mountain in time, which wiped out the epidemic. Mother, you said, "am I fierce?"


    The Empress Dowager took her to look left and right, "silly girl, my mother knows you are powerful, but you are now the mother of a country and shoulder the heavy responsibility of continuous children. You can''t risk yourself for such a thing, you know?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a naughty smile, "I know!"


    The Empress Dowager held her hand tightly. "Just come back, just come back."


    At this time, mother Su came in with mother Wu and Xiao yu''er.


    Xiao yu''er saw a familiar person sitting next to his familiar grandparents and was about to run down the ground.


    Zhuo Xi greeted him early, hugged him and kissed him hard before he let go. Too enthusiastic, Xiao yu''er was dazed before he reacted, and his mouth was almost crying.


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly pressed him in her arms and coaxed him into laughing.


    Mother Wu saluted the two masters.


    Zhuo Xi sat between her and the Empress Dowager with Xiao yu''er in her arms and smiled at Wu''s mother, "mom has worked hard recently. Can Xiao yu''er make trouble at night? "


    "The eldest prince is very clever. He can sleep from five to ugly. If the nurse feeds him again, he can sleep until dawn."


    Zhuo Xi nodded with satisfaction. He basically broke his milk after six months. The newly found nurse only ate four meals a day and has begun to add supplementary food slowly.


    Several people talked for a while about Xiao yu''er''s daily life, and it was time to have dinner.


    Zhuo Xi knew that the emperor had arranged dinner there, and was not polite. She had dinner with the Empress Dowager here, and then took Xiao yu''er back to Ning''an palace.


    When they arrived at Ning''an palace, they found that Yu Meng and Mrs. Yu had been waiting in the palace for a long time.


    She remembered that she happened to meet Yu Meng and Mrs. Yu on a trip near the suburbs of Beijing yesterday evening.


    At that time, Jing Yuan just woke up from a long coma. The first thing to wake up is to let go. It can be imagined that how could a proud man like him be solved in the carriage? So he forcibly supported the sick body and went to the woods with the help of Wuhe and wordless. Unexpectedly, it was such a remote grove that I ran into Yu Meng and Mrs. Yu when I came out. Yu Meng explained that when they took Xiaobai out to relax, they accidentally let Xiaobai into the woods. They searched for it for a long time before they found it.


    Fortunately, they are not outsiders, but the current situation needs to be kept secret. And that lady has been staring straight at Zhuo Xi, looking like she wants to stay with her for a long time. Zhuo Xi didn''t think much, so she took them back to the palace and placed them in the palace yard next door.


    She walked into the main hall of Ning''an palace. After Mrs. Yu and Yu Mengchao saluted her, Zhuo Xi asked them softly, "have you had dinner?"


    Yu Meng replied, "I''ve used it. Thank you for your concern."


    But Mrs. Yu didn''t dare to say a word. She only stared at Zhuo Xi with her eyes.


    Mother Wu came in with Xiao yu''er in her arms.


    Mrs. Yu''s eyes greedily turned to the little yu''er held by mother Wu.


    Seeing this, Yu Meng couldn''t help feeling anxious and quietly pulled Mrs. Yu''s sleeve with her hand.


    He knew Mrs. Yu''s life experience. He sympathized with his aunt who was related by blood and was willing to take good care of her. That''s why I deliberately created their encounter with the queen and tried to let her take them into the palace. I hope my aunt can get along with her sister more. He also knew the true identity of his sister, so this sister shouted, which was really a call from the bottom of his heart.


    Zhuo Xi understood in her heart that she gave a seat to the two people in front of her, so she let Xiao yu''er climb around on the big chair behind her, and asked mother Wu to go back and wash first, and then take Xiao yu''er to wash.


    Mother Wu saluted and stepped back.

 Chapter 294

    Mrs. Yu sat down stupidly and slowly recovered. She didn''t dare to lift her eyes. She whispered, "old man, living in the house of shangxiangfang is also idle, so she made some small clothes... But she had to come out in a hurry. I didn''t know she would meet her mother... No..."


    Zhuo Xi shook her head carelessly. "There are many people in the palace. Can you still lack those small clothes? Don''t worry about it. You''ll hurt your eyes. "


    She just said casually, but she saw that the old woman''s eyes seemed to be red and her head was lower.


    She murmured, "thank you for your concern."


    After thinking for a long time, she began to take it out in her sleeve. After taking it out for a long time, she took out a flat thing and handed it over. She said shakily, "old man, there is no good meeting gift for the Grand Prince. Please don''t dislike it."


    With a wink, Zhuo Xi picked up the things and handed them to her.


    Zhuo Xi''s eyes narrowed. This is a jade pendant. It''s orange. It looks like Huanglong jade, carved into a lotus.


    I just said that I was not prepared, but now I can take out a jade pendant to show that this thing is afraid to be an important object. She can carry it with her anytime and anywhere.


    She casually waved her hand to sign the Spring Festival Gala to put it away.


    Mrs. Yu couldn''t help worrying and looked at Zhuo Xi eagerly.


    Zhuo Xi also didn''t know how lucky she was. She turned her head and ordered a spring festival gala, "put it away carefully."


    The Spring Festival Gala should be carefully.


    Mrs. Yu was greatly relieved.


    She asked uneasily, "madam, the eldest prince is very clever and lovely. Can I... Have the honor to touch him?"


    She thought for a moment and added, "we, we just washed at our residence."


    Yu Meng''s nose is a little sour.


    Zhuo Xi thought, nodded and motioned her to come up.


    Mrs. Yu knelt and wiped her hand in front of her, and then slowly wiped her hand.


    Xiao yu''er looked at the middle-aged woman in front of her curiously. She was very strange and had never seen her before. But she held her hand and didn''t hate it at all. His round black eyes blinked and looked at his mother suspiciously. Zhuo Xi did not explain, but looked at their interaction with a smile.


    Mrs. Yu''s tears flowed down like this.


    God still treats her well. She married Prince Chang at the age of 15. She thought she could live a prosperous life. Unexpectedly, he began to run around with him at the age of 17. She gave birth to a daughter at the age of nineteen, but had to throw it away. At the age of 22, he began to be a widow, but in order to survive, he had to mix with the crown prince. I thought my life was hopeless. Who knows, in her lifetime, she not only saw her own daughter and lived a stable life, but also had to run around and touch her grandson. A woman''s life is so short. What are you looking forward to? Don''t you just hope for a stable life and full of children and grandchildren??


    Look at this. Although my daughter can''t recognize it, it won''t stop her from visiting the palace often, will it?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t speak.


    Mrs. Yu quietly shed tears for a while, awkwardly withdrew her hand, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, smiled with tears and said, "I''m out of order. I will chant scriptures and pray for the queen and the great prince every day. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and waved to make them kneel.


    Still remember the purple Chen Hall... She is really tired and not in the mood to accompany them


    At night, after coaxing xiaoyu''er to sleep, Zhuo Xi washed herself and lay in bed ready to go to sleep.


    Jing Yuan hasn''t come back yet. He sent someone to ask. He said there were too many things and he had to rest later.


    She stroked her abdomen, and some anger that didn''t come out in the daytime gradually spread.


    Although she has not been diagnosed yet, she knows that eight, nine and ten are inseparable.


    Seriously, the child came too soon.


    Xiao yu''er has only been in less than a week. If a daughter is OK, but if a son, the prince of the imperial family, it is not good to be too close to his age.


    The Empress Dowager obviously understood this, so she couldn''t help showing her hope that it was a daughter.


    But her anger didn''t come from the baby.


    Is from Jing Yuan, the emperor of Daliang, her husband.


    Thinking of the blood hole in his chest the night before yesterday, he was in a coma for nearly 12 hours. In order to hide the Empress Dowager''s return to the palace, he plunged into the imperial study of Zichen hall for the first time. It''s nearly the end of Hai Shi and hasn''t returned to the room to rest.


    What is he doing?!


    Anger rolled up as soon as she turned over. Her chest burned. Suddenly, a stabbing pain came, and her heart panicked for no reason. She couldn''t help it any longer. She sat up and whispered to Hua Yan.


    Hua Yan appeared in front of her bed.


    "Did you find it?" Zhuo Xi''s cold voice sounded.


    Hua Yan smiles bitterly. The queen is forcing her to stand in line. Can she not stand? Does she have any other choice?


    Zhuo Xi saw her hesitation and spoke again, "this palace knows that as long as you like, you can naturally know what happened that night. It''s over. I just don''t want to be blind. Whether you say it or not, the palace has other ways to know. It''s just a matter of time. But if the delay causes any damage to the emperor''s body, can you afford it? "


    Hua Yan was shocked and said with difficulty, "that night, the big supervisor of Wuhe received a note..."


    Before the words fell, noisy footsteps sounded in front of the hall.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. The door had been pushed open quickly.


    The Spring Festival Gala turned pale with a small face. Seeing Hua Yan present, he was stunned.


    "Well, why are you so flustered?" Zhuo Xi had already stood up and shouted,.


    The Spring Festival Gala stuttered, "no, no, the emperor fainted! He has entered the Ning''an palace and is on his way to the bedroom. "


    Zhuo Xi strode out and shouted, "please ask mother Wu to take good care of the eldest prince!"


    She didn''t even have time to wear her shoes, so she went out barefoot. While ordering people to burn hot water, she also ordered to close the gate of Ning''an palace, and no news was allowed to be revealed.


    Soon a group of eunuchs came in quietly carrying a figure.


    Zhuo Xi said nothing and asked them to put people on their big bed. Xiao yu''er has been held by mother Wu to the side hall to have a rest.


    The people on the bed have red cheeks and high fever in their tentacles. At a glance, they know that it is the infection caused by poor postoperative care.


    As soon as they returned from the epidemic area, someone fell ill, which will inevitably not cause speculation from the outside world. Moreover, the person with this disease is still the king of a country. Once the news is revealed, it will inevitably cause some panic suspicions.


    This is also the main reason why Jing Yuan will summon the six cabinet ministers in the imperial study as soon as he comes back. He''s going to show up, and he''s going to show up completely and safely. Who knows, there are too many things piled up. Once the cabinet ministers opened the reporting gate, they couldn''t close it... It was so late. I think Jing Yuan must have been holding up the sick body. Finally, he couldn''t hold on and fainted.


    Zhuo Xi spent a lot of effort to calm down her anger. She took Jing Yuan''s pulse and found that he was indeed a postoperative infection. After prescribing the medicine, he asked people to take the medicine quietly, took apart the gauze on the wound for him, replaced the new trauma medicine, and bandaged the wound again.


    After a busy trip, Jing Yuan still closed his eyes and showed no sign of waking up.


    Zhuo Xi asked someone to quietly call doctor Wu over to see if she could use acupuncture.


    When I sat down to have a rest, the more I thought about it, the more I got angry and shouted the five rivers in.


    Five rivers came to salute. I must know that I can''t be good today. I knelt on the ground and didn''t get up.


    Zhuo Xi didn''t hide her anger at all. She asked him, "what happened that day? Don''t tell the palace you don''t know. Did you take the note?! What does it say? Who asked the emperor? Why did the emperor risk his life to keep the appointment? "


    Wuhe was numbed by a series of problems. Did the empress know that there was a note? Who told her? What else does she know? The emperor told him not to say it. If he didn''t say it, could the empress spare him?


    Zhuo Xi saw that he tightened his lips and said nothing. He helped his forehead. His anger was even stronger, but he knew that if they decided not to say it, they would be tortured, and they wouldn''t say it.


    She took a deep breath and began to reason and tell the truth, "you can see the five rivers. At present, we are still facing attacks from enemies who do not know where they come from. For the first time, there will be the second time, there will be conspiracy, there will be a wise plan. At present, the emperor is unconscious. You know the power of our palace. You tell this house that this house has enough brains to judge our current environment. If the palace is kept in the dark and can''t see the current situation, it will only make our situation more and more passive. Are you sure you have to say it at the last minute? Why don''t we plan ahead? If something unexpected happens again, who can decide? Rely on your unconscious master who can''t save himself? It''s only a chance for you to think about it. "


    Sweat cascaded down the five rivers'' heads.


    His mind is also a battle between heaven and man.


    The emperor had been in anxiety since he came back from a serious injury the night before. I didn''t wake up until yesterday. I rushed back to the palace today. Before he had a rest, he plunged into the imperial study to discuss political affairs with cabinet ministers. Until the master fainted, his heart was like suffering up and down in water and fire.


    Whether to say it or not is a big problem now.


    Zhuo Xi slowly raised her hand, extended her arm, exposed five fingers hidden in her wide sleeve, held her hands, and rubbed a huge black jade wrench on her thumb.


    At the sight of Wuhe, his eyes straightened, and he immediately said without hesitation, "to the queen, this is the case... When we arrived in Anbei county the day before yesterday..."


    Zhuo Xi still clearly remembered that morning he was in a very good mood, because there was still one day''s journey to Kyoto. He could see Xiao yu''er and was very happy to think about it.


    With the feeling that others are also in a good mood.


    Zhuo Xi felt dizzy and nauseous all the way. As soon as he arrived in the county, he must go to the restaurant and have a good meal of hot food, hot rice and hot soup. Anbei county is no exception. A group of people went to the largest restaurant in the county for dinner.


    While eating, Zhuo Xi always felt that none of the dishes on the table were greasy. She took two bites and suddenly turned uncontrollably and vomited. Several people such as the Spring Festival Gala rushed to serve from the private room next door.


    Jing Yuan''s black eyes looked at her deeply, suddenly grabbed her wrist and felt her pulse. When they cleaned up the filth in the house at the Spring Festival Gala, Jing Yuan said in her ear, "it seems that we are going to be parents again." Zhuo Xi was surprised. During this period, she was busy treating patients and saving people. Her monthly letter came. She didn''t pay attention at all. She put her index finger and middle finger on her wrist and bought a number for a long time, but she didn''t give a number.

 Chapter 295

    She doubted that she was a fake doctor and that Jing Yuan was a fake emperor. Even the fake emperor could call out the happy pulse, but she couldn''t call it out??


    This is so unscientific!


    At this time, the five rivers knocked on the door and came in, attached to the emperor''s ear and whispered two words.


    After Wuhe went out, the emperor smiled and said to her, "he said it might rain in the afternoon. Why don''t we rest in the guest room in the backyard of the restaurant for half a day? It''s not too late to leave tomorrow morning. You can go back to the Palace tomorrow afternoon. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded and didn''t take it to heart.


    But things have been abnormal since then.


    The emperor asked people to cook light porridge again, and asked them to move some common daily toiletries to the guest room in the backyard. After the porridge came, he accompanied her with a bowl of porridge, and personally helped Zhuo xi lie down and rest for a while.


    It was only a moment''s effort. Zhuo Xi was confused and felt that he had suddenly fallen asleep. She didn''t know why? I always think it''s because I''m too sleepy. Then I realized that I was unconsciously ordered to sleep.


    He knows that she hates others to point her acupoints! It would make her feel like she was being slaughtered unconsciously


    Thinking of this, she asked, "what did you show the emperor?"


    Wuhe bowed his head and said, "the slave suddenly received a note with three names on it. To be exact, it''s not the names of three people, but the names of two people plus a white snake. "


    Zhuo Xi straightened her back. Is this related to Yu Meng, Mrs. Yu and Xiaobai? No wonder I can "meet" them the next day


    Wuhe nodded and continued, "at first, the slave wanted to pass this note to the queen. Because these three names have something to do with the empress. But the slave thought that if this man could send the note to the slave, he must want to pass it on to the emperor through the slave. Whether to present it to the empress or not depends on the emperor. So the slave presented it to the emperor at the first time. "


    "In the afternoon, the slave received a second note with only three words, ''Qian''an Garden''. The slave sent someone to find out that Qian''an garden was an abandoned garden in Anbei county. Since this person can give the location, it is very likely that the two people will be hidden in this Qian''an park. The emperor took some bodyguards to Qian''an garden before the time was right. ",


    Zhuo Xi interrupted him, "you make it clear, how many people did you bring?" There are 16 bodyguards with him, and there are at least 20 people around him. Besides, the emperor''s martial arts are not weak. How could he be hurt like that??


    Wuhe smiled bitterly and said, "I only know that the emperor took Duan Cheng and the three went out."


    Zhuo Xi was furious, "why did you bring three people?! what about you? Where are you? "


    Wuhe lowered his head deeply. "The emperor ordered the slave to take the rest of the bodyguards and closely guard the guest room where the empress is located."


    Zhuo Xi''s head exploded. "Is he so confident in himself?! What if the other party is crowded? What danger can I have when a weak woman rests in the house? "


    She burst out, "Jianfeng, Jianlei, come out!"


    She knew they were the dark guards around him.


    A figure fell from the air, but it was not wind and thunder. The man knelt on one knee, hugged his fist and saluted, "tell the queen that Jianfeng and Jianlei are still recovering from serious injuries. My subordinates are Jianshui. " He had already seen the black jade trigger in the Queen''s mother''s hand, which was a keepsake used by the master to give orders to the dark Wei.


    Zhuo Xi couldn''t stand holding her forehead. "Do you know the situation of the fierce battle that day?"


    Jianshui replied, "after listening to Jianfeng, my subordinates said that in the garden that day, someone threatened the sexual lives of Mrs. Yu, young master Biao and Lord white snake and laid a snare. The emperor knew it was a trap, but he wanted to break in. There were three dark guards and three bodyguards. Together with the emperor, there were seven people. They killed more than 70 rebels in the garden, and finally saved Mrs. Yu, young master Biao and Lord white snake. "


    Zhuo Xi grasped the key point, "against the party?"


    Jianshui nodded and replied, "I heard that the leader is a man named Mingyuan. Jianfeng said he heard someone call him Lord. It should be the remnant of the previous dynasty. A few days ago, the emperor clearly cancelled the order to hunt down the descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty. I don''t know why the emperor can threaten the queen to live. "


    It''s also a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty! Are they finished?! Zhuo Xi was furious. She always thought that after the death of the prince Ming and the last time, the descendants of the royal family of the former dynasty had no power to make waves anymore. This time, it was obviously directed at her, and Yu Meng and Xiaobai were arrested. The leaked clue is estimated to be Mrs. Yu. It seems that it is wrong to put her in the market. Does your own existence give those who suffer from paranoia a a funny hope?


    Who else is there in the dark? It seems that I''m going to make some statements.


    While talking, Dr. Wu arrived.


    Zhuo Xi let them all retreat.


    She took Doctor Wu to the emperor''s sleeping bed.


    Doctor Wu was stunned. Although he accompanied them, he had no idea what had happened to the emperor the day before yesterday.


    Zhuo Xi briefly said the situation and asked him to see if he could use the needle to wake the emperor up.


    Doctor Wu felt the emperor''s pulse tremblingly. After thinking for a long time, he nodded and could give the needle a try.


    Zhuo Xi nodded and asked him to prepare for the injection.


    After a incense stick, the emperor woke up slowly under the acupuncture and moxibustion of Wu Taiyi.


    Zhuo Xi opened her mouth and wanted to anger him.


    Before opening his mouth, Wu Taiyi bowed to her and said, "the emperor is weak and should not be angry. Please tell the empress something and leave as a minister." From the moment he came in, he found the empress angry. In Zihe County, he got to know the empress a little in the past few days. Knowing that the empress was not unreasonable, he had the courage to comfort her.


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath and nodded to let him go out first. Then he turned around and said to the man who had just woken up on the bed, "tired and dizzy, happy? Do you want to give you a fighting Hero Award? "


    The man looked at her deeply with thin lips and a dull voice, "you''re angry."


    "Can''t I be angry? How many lives do you have? " After all, she couldn''t help it. She roared out.


    The man raised his head slightly and looked down at his injury. He didn''t know why, "isn''t it just a sword injury? As for the loss of life? " It didn''t stab the vital part, just on the shoulder.


    "The sword wound needs rest. If there is any rust on the sword, you have to catch tetanus or something, and you don''t find it in time. Your little life is over, you know? "


    The man licked his lips, ignored her roar and said in a low voice, "Xi''er, come and hug me."


    Did the man get kicked in the head by a donkey? Just woke up from fainting by acupuncture, you want a beauty in your arms. What do you mean?


    Zhuo Xi''s face was cold. "You''re a man. Is it glorious to die?"


    The man asked sincerely, "what is death? And what the hell was that tetanus? " It seems that I haven''t learned her mother tongue system from her for a long time. Have I fallen behind again??


    Zhuo Xi sensed that a group of crows flew past her head.


    The man turned pale, licked some dry lips, and looked at her with dark eyes.


    "Doing... Is..." Zhuo Xi found that his lip licking action was extremely sexy. She struggled to search the meaning of the word in her mind and found that she really didn''t know how to explain the word "doing".


    But she unconsciously walked to the bed.


    "Although I don''t know what it means to do (the first sound)? However, I really want to do it with you. " A man never stops talking.


    Zhuo Xi almost slapped him. Why did this deep and introverted ancient man suddenly open his mouth and play yellow accent?


    But he couldn''t lift his hand. He looked down and found that his right hand was tightly pulled in the palm of his hand.


    There was a timely knock outside the door, and the Spring Festival Gala came in with medicine.


    Zhuo Xi took out her hand to pick it up and said angrily, "when you wake up, drink the medicine quickly. You have to be early tomorrow."


    Jing Yuan sat up against the head of the bed, took the bowl, drank it in one breath, handed it back to her, blinked, as if to say, "am I doing well?"


    Zhuo Xi looked at the man''s thin lips soaked in medicine juice, pursed her lips, finally said nothing, and helped him lie down to rest.


    It was getting late. She asked the Spring Festival Gala to bring water. She wiped Jing Yuan''s face and body, and then she lay down on the other side to rest.


    She felt as if the man on her side was going to turn over hard. She quickly turned to her side and put her hand on him. "Don''t move. It''s bad if the wound bursts open."


    So he lay flat and didn''t move.


    She began to chatter, "don''t you know how to feel your pulse? Why don''t you see what''s going on first? How can you just let yourself faint like that? Don''t you know how dangerous it is? Also, if you want to save Yu Meng Xiaobai, they will go to save him. Can you tell me? Can I stop you? You know I hate people to point my acupoints. How dare you point my sleeping acupoints? With so few people, you''ll be happy if you try to hurt yourself like this? "


    She choked when she said the last words, and beat him gently with her small hand in her fist.


    He held her pink fist with his hand and said softly, "I just knew you were pregnant... I''m afraid you''re worried... I don''t think Mrs. Wu is very considerate to you, so I thought, there should be someone who really wants to be good to you by your side..."


    Zhuo Xi stays.


    Is he talking about Mrs. Yu?


    Although she herself did not accept the biological mother of the original owner from the bottom of her heart, she was naturally related by blood. She felt comfortable when she saw Mrs. Yu. I didn''t give her too many opportunities to say hello, but she still found a way to "meet" with Yu Meng... Is it her greatest wish to stay in the palace? Today, I was excited to see her caressing Xiao yu''er''s small hand... And what she said about the small clothes she made when she lived in the yard of shangxiangfang


    She just got pregnant... What do you mean? Does he want Mrs. Yu to live in the palace and take care of her?


    Her identity is a time bomb.


    As soon as the bomb exploded, it was an atomic bomb, and the mushroom cloud could not cover up such shocking news.


    How can this work?


    She had to object again, but she saw that the man beside her had fallen asleep

 Chapter 296

    She stepped into the upper study with a smile and dignity, and the cabinet ministers saluted her.


    She turned a blind eye and smiled at the man sitting on the Dragon chair. She asked softly, "has the emperor had lunch?"


    The five rivers bending to one side immediately sweated.


    Jing Yuan smiled and did not answer.


    She still smiled, "that''s not yet?!"


    Five rivers flopped and knelt down in front of her, "empress, it''s a slave''s dereliction of duty. The slave should die!"


    The smile on Zhuo Xi''s face immediately disappeared and changed into a cold expression, "you don''t know how the emperor returned to Ning''an Palace last night?"


    Fengmu swept away all the people kneeling on the ground, "or were you all absent yesterday?"


    Gongsunli and others are very guilty, and they dare not go out.


    She glanced at the man on the Dragon chair.


    Jing Yuan understood and immediately covered his mouth and coughed twice.


    She gave him a look of "you know", walked two steps quickly, stepped forward and took a pulse, exclaimed, "emperor! You, you have hypoglycemia! Come on! "

 Chapter 297

    The play is too fake to play on its own.


    But she is the queen of medicine. Who dares to question her pulse?


    ¡­¡­


    In addition to the emperor who can also feel the pulse


    The Spring Festival Gala immediately magically took several palace maids into it, put the meal table in front of the Dragon chair, and set up a screen in front of the table.


    So, a moment later, the whole study heard the rustling sound of eating behind the screen. No one spoke, and no one dared to speak.


    The emperor is hungry and hypoglycemic. Who dares to disagree?


    However, those cabinet ministers who had been discussing all morning and had been hungry for a long time knelt on the ground and ignored them. While listening to the sound of chewing and swallowing, they smelled the fragrance from behind at the tip of their nose. Inexplicably, they felt that the emperor''s meal must be very good today.


    But with this idea, my mouth involuntarily secretes some liquid.


    So the six cabinet ministers began to swallow.


    Suddenly, there was a soft cry inside the screen, "Hey, there seems to be some strange sound outside?"


    Gongsun Li immediately blushed. Similarly, Wuhe, who was kneeling on the ground, tried to hold back his smile.


    A head poked out to have a look, and then retracted, and a soft voice sounded, "your ministers have not made mistakes. How can you kneel on the ground for so long?? Get up quickly. "


    Then there was the sound of the crisp spoon hitting the dishes, and the soft waxy sound sounded again. "Emperor, this is made by my ministers and concubines with more than 30 kinds of delicacies, such as sea cucumber, abalone, wild pheasant, scallop, wild flower mushroom and hoof tendon. It was boiled for three hours. It is called Buddha jumping over the wall, which can enhance immunity, reduce three highs and prevent prostate diseases Increase hematopoietic function, accelerate wound healing, resist aging, promote growth, improve coronary heart disease, reduce blood pressure, cholesterol and soften blood vessels... Try... "


    Everyone only heard the first half. As for the nutritional value and efficacy of the second half, they didn''t understand it and simply ignored it. The faster the liquid is secreted in the mouth, the higher the frequency of the strange sound.


    A head poked out from behind the screen again, and soon retracted. I only heard the queen mumbling, "strange, nothing unusual? Why does the palace seem to hear a strange sound? "


    Gongsun Li couldn''t help it. He saluted and said, "please eat slowly, Emperor. I''ll leave first."


    The Queen''s voice sounded, "wait. The palace was only worried about the emperor''s illness, so it watched the emperor eat on time. I''m disturbing your discussion. This palace really shouldn''t. It''s really hard for my palace to see you forget to eat and sleep... "


    Gongsun Li and others were delighted and thought that the empress would prepare to give meals.


    "The palace can''t bear you running back and forth. Just wait a moment. The emperor is almost finished eating. The palace will withdraw now. State matters. "


    She coughed and said, "five rivers, don''t you serve tea?"


    The five rivers jumped up happily and went away in response.


    "Bang" a dull thunder sounded on their heads.


    The emperor uses delicacies inside, so they can only drink tea?


    Giving Royal meals in the palace is a great honor. The sense of ceremony is far greater than the satisfaction brought by the food itself. The palace did not stipulate that when it was too late for officials to discuss official business with the emperor, they must be given imperial food during meal time. Everything depends on the emperor''s mood.


    At present, such blatant disregard of the cliff can only explain one problem - that is, the emperor and the queen must be in a bad mood at the moment.


    Gongsun Li and Xichi looked at each other and saw guilt and a sudden realization in each other''s eyes.


    Originally, the emperor did not leave a word, but disappeared for more than half a month, which made them very angry. Therefore, they also have the intention to let the emperor feel the heavy state affairs as soon as he comes back. After all, the emperor is the emperor, although they don''t know what happened to the emperor before, so that they fainted last night. However, seeing that the emperor was in the early morning on time today, and indeed the cabinet had accumulated a lot of affairs, they wanted to follow the plan. They would rather be hungry and tired than put pressure on the emperor for three days in a row. How about giving the emperor a warning, or the next time the emperor is happy and disappears for ten days and a half months for no reason, what about state affairs?


    Looking at the posture of the empress, it is obvious that she is dissatisfied with them.


    And it''s a matter of state


    What else can we do now? When such a big hat is pressed down, I can''t walk again. I can only envy the two masters who are popular and spicy... They all have the feeling of lifting a stone and smashing their feet.


    Wuhe greeted the eunuch who sent tea, brought everyone a cup of tea, and respectfully said, "ministers, please take your tea."


    Everyone saw a strong smile in Wuhe''s eyes and glared at him angrily.


    It''s Pu''er tea newly invented by the empress last year. It''s especially suitable for scraping oil after dinner. Knowing that they were hungry, Wuhe brought Pu''er tea. What was it not intentional!?


    Especially behind the screen, there seems to be a strong smell.


    Everyone pricked up their ears and listened to the empress''s introduction, "emperor, this is a roast pigeon, sprinkled with the new spices we brought back from the south, special incense. If you like, eat two more."


    Suddenly grunts came and went.


    Gongsun Li couldn''t help holding down his stomach.


    The fragrance can linger for three days.


    What''s more, the Queen''s voice kept coming into their ears, "this is fried lotus crab..."


    "This is sliced bamboo shoots..."


    "This is diced chicken in palace pot..."


    "This is..."


    Some dishes they have eaten can immediately remind them of the strong taste after listening to the names of the dishes. What''s more, although they haven''t eaten some dishes, the empress will explain the ingredients and methods carefully. They can flash the taste and appearance of the dishes in their minds almost immediately, and the taste buds are more curious unconsciously


    What kind of torture is more painful than hearing and smelling but not eating? Especially when I''m still hungry... The feeling of hunger is magnified... Everyone feels like a huge hand in his stomach, pulling and pulling, but nothing comes out


    The feeling of saliva secreted by taste buds is stronger


    Finally, they heard the queen say, "this is the last course, steamed eel."


    The strong smell of eel came out from behind the screen, but I heard a retching sound behind.


    Gongsun Li noticed that he had taken a bowl in the Spring Festival Gala.


    He suddenly realized that he immediately knelt down in front, "I heard that the empress was unwell. Why don''t you ask the emperor to have a good rest with the empress?"


    The others all reacted and knelt down and asked, "Phoenix body is important. Please the emperor and empress have a rest."


    Thousands of people wear flattery but don''t wear it. How can they at least get the emperor''s approval for flattering the queen this time?


    Besides, listen to this voice. Is it because the queen is pregnant?


    People''s hearts suddenly balanced. Even if you give in for the sake of dragon seed, the cabinet can''t admit defeat, can it?


    The most important thing is


    After a long time, the man''s low voice sounded behind the screen, "quasi play."


    The sound was like the sound of nature. Several people wiped the sweat on their forehead and saluted and left one after another.


    When the gate of Zichen hall was closed, a moment later, a violent laughter broke out behind the screen.


    Jing Yuan knocked the chestnut on Zhuo Xi''s forehead, "you girl, have a good time?"


    "Who did Zhuo Xi bully?"


    Jing Yuan said, "I''m the emperor. Who can bully me?"


    Zhuo Xi rolled her eyes. "The current parliamentary system of the cabinet has restrained you, when I don''t know?"


    Otherwise, I wouldn''t have passed out on the spot yesterday.


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment and admitted, "if we want them to take greater responsibility, it is bound to restrain me. Is this a progress or a setback? "


    "Whether it is profit or loss depends on whose point of view." Zhuo Xi patted off Jing Yuan''s chopsticks. "Roasted pigeons are hair, which is harmful to your wound. This is for them to smell. Who let you eat?"


    Jing Yuan stared at her and said, "just one."


    "Not half!"


    Jing Yuan threw away the pigeon and didn''t eat it. Can eels always be eaten?


    Unexpectedly, the chopsticks were knocked off again. "Seafood is also made and can''t be eaten!"


    Can''t eat. You bring so much?


    Jing Yuan threw away his chopsticks and put an empty bowl in front of Zhuo Xi. Just say what you can eat.


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. He thought he was angry. He quickly loaded a bowl of Buddha and jumped over the wall. He scooped up a spoon and handed it to his mouth. "This will help the wound heal. You can eat more."


    He looked at her with burning eyes. After swallowing it, he whispered, "what I heard from you earlier is not only helpful for wound healing."


    Zhuo Xi recalled it. At that time, she just said it casually. She had almost no impression. She said, "what did I say before?"


    Jing Yuan said in her ear, "you said you could prevent and treat prostate disease. I have prostate disease? "


    Zhuo Xi blushed. "I said so much, but you remember this sentence. I said prevention and control, prevention and control, do you know?? Besides, do you know what a prostate is? "


    Jing Yuan said faintly, "of course I know. You told me before."


    £¥£¦¡­¡­£ª¡­¡­£ª£¥


    Zhuo Xi was speechless.


    When was he contaminated by himself?


    Bah, bah, this is not any pollution. They are discussing serious medical knowledge.


    After eating, they got up to go back to the Zichen palace.


    Jing Yuan suddenly woke up, "those old men were so easily driven away by you? What have you done to them? "


    "Ah, ha ha! Where? No, no! " Zhuo Xi pretended to smile, which can''t be admitted.


    Jing Yuan whispered behind him, "five rivers."


    Wuhe came slowly and said, "tell the emperor that they went straight to the official house as soon as they went out."


    Jing Yuan coughed twice.


    After they stepped into the bedroom, Wuhe closed the door with eyes.


    Soon I heard a burst of hearty laughter.


    "Don''t laugh, don''t laugh, be careful of the wound!"


    ¡­¡­


    "Don''t move! I''ll change your medicine... "


    ¡­¡­


    "Hey, hey, hey... All the medicine has fallen..."


    ¡­¡­


    The five rivers are outside, vaguely listening to the sound inside, raising their eyes to the depths of the blue sky and white clouds... Xianru imperial concubine, the slave finally lived up to the heavy hope

 Chapter 298

    Ji ruomin reported for five working days before reporting all the things that need to be handled in the inner palace and those that can''t wait for her to come back.


    Zhuo Xi has time to gossip with them.


    I don''t know. I''m shocked by gossip.


    She didn''t know she had missed so many gossip


    It turned out that when she didn''t know, Princess Jing Mo gave birth to a baby boy on the good day of the 16th of the first month after Princess Jing Qianchang. The princess''s house held a running water banquet for three days, and the son-in-law handed over a fold to ask for the son of the world the next day. Unfortunately, the big seal was not opened, and he remained in the cabinet all the time.


    During the whole half month of the new year, the Empress Dowager''s Ci''an palace was crowded with people, either greeting or paying New Year''s greetings. The final result was that the Empress Dowager gave twelve marriage vows on the 28th day of the first month, which led a red line for six couples -- two of the most important ones were for Princess Luo Yuan and Princess Yanling.


    Zhuo Xi took a breath when she heard about it. How addicted is the matchmaker of the Empress Dowager? She has made six matchmakers in a row... Although the other four are the children of Uncle Wang''s family, she is not very familiar with them... However, in the future, she will follow the footsteps of the Empress Dowager and start worrying about whether the marriage of this noble family will succeed?


    Of course, the gossip she was most interested in was that a concubine in Zongzheng''s family named Tao Zhi was jealous and noisy about whose room to rest on the 15th of the first month. In her anger, Zhengfang''s wife castrated Tao Zhi; A Shuchang Jishi named Liang Zhiwen was caught by his wife while eating flower wine with his colleagues in the new year. He was dumped by his wife on the spot; A small official surnamed Peng ate wine at his colleague''s house and drank too much. He casually said "send me this maid". He was impeached to the cabinet and said that he violated the monogamous marriage law and was dismissed for investigation


    Chunnuan said excitedly, "there are nearly 50 new women in Xiyan Yangsheng hall and healthy mother and baby hall. Sister Ke can finally breathe a sigh of relief and don''t have to go around."


    Zhuo Xi said strangely, "how can you recruit so many people suddenly? It''s always hard to recruit women workers, isn''t it? "


    Spring is more and more exciting, "at present, there are more hands than ever before. Because there are many more women in Kyoto City who have filed for divorce with the government in recent months... Ranging in age from more than ten to forty or fifty, most of them are unable to bear the harsh and cruel of their husband''s family before they consider seeking a way out... Even there are many more handkerchiefs embroidered by themselves in the vegetable market to make a living. Our two shops have good reputation and good treatment. We don''t have to sign a deed of sale and only serve female guests. As long as women want to find work, which one doesn''t want to come in? Recently, people have begged me to come here. I can''t get into the inner palace. I''ve been waiting at the gate of the palace. It''s so annoying... "


    Zhuo Xi thought of a big event, "at least you are also a six life female official. Why don''t you go out and buy a house to live alone? What''s it like to stay in my Ning''an palace all day? "


    "The spring palace is warm, I don''t care. Don''t drive me away! "


    Baiyunshu next to him also said with a smile, "chunnuan''s sister is obviously bigger than the junior officer. How come she often feels like her sister. It turns out that she is used to it." She had been in the palace late and had a short contact with her mother. She dared to talk to her mother in this way because she chatted and joked with them around her these days.


    Zhuo Xi also smiled, "she is just a little child. Cloud book, you should be vigilant. Be careful not to marry! "


    The two of them laughed brightly.


    Zhuo Xi noticed, "eh, what about ruomin? Why did she leave in a moment? "


    "Sister ruomin doesn''t have time to gossip with us here! She has to go back and see how her new house is decorated! " Bai Yunshu smiles.


    Zhuo Xi was interested, "new house? Have you seen it? What about? Have they decided on a wedding date? "


    Chunnuan said, "I''ve seen the new house. It''s magnificent and looks excellent. It''s said that they went back to pozhou years ago, moved the remains of Mr. Ji and his colleagues to their ancestral graves, and took back the three sisters and two aunts who survived the exile in Shazhou. They all took good health and took them back to Kyoto. It was agreed that the marriage should be scheduled for February 16 next month. "


    Zhuo Xi was silent. No wonder Ji ruomin''s face was as green as if he owed her five million these days. It turned out to be premarital anxiety


    At this time, I saw a little maid in waiting dangling around the door.


    Now everything in the inner palace has entered the study of the inner house, and the female officials have sorted it out and reported to her. It is not necessary to go into the study of the house. Generally, the family members of their direct relatives come to visit, or people holding special jade medals such as Fengxin and Ke min. A Prajna is that a palace maid appears at the door temporarily. It''s probably that the Empress Dowager or the emperor has something to ask.


    Zhuo Xi was in a good mood, so she casually asked, "what''s up?"


    The little maid came in and knelt down and kowtowed, "tell the empress. Su qinger, the female official of the inner house, brought a man and said that she was desperate to see her..."


    Zhuo Xi took a look at chunnuan.


    "Is it a temporary agenda? I''m afraid there''s something important? " Otherwise, who dares to die so recklessly?


    She saluted as she spoke and went out to ask questions.


    After a while, she came in and said, "Mom, yes, it''s Mrs. Tao of Tao Zongzheng''s family who asked to see you..."


    Zhuo Xi felt that Tao Zongzheng was a little familiar for a moment. After thinking about it, she thought that Mrs. Tao herself should not have seen it. Tun asked, "does Mrs. Tao have a tomorrow?" If so, it''s unreasonable that you haven''t seen it; But how did you get into the palace without an order?


    Chunnuan said, "No."


    No, how did you get into the palace?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t want to be nosy. She kept in mind that she would take Xiao yu''er to the Empress Dowager''s place to continue gossip about the twelve wedding decrees. She said faintly, "when can a lady at will break into the inner palace? Go and tell her that the palace is missing. " If everyone threatened her life, how would she live?


    Chunnuan looked at baiyunshu and didn''t speak.


    Baiyunshu knelt down and said, "madam, if Mrs. Tao of Tao Zongzheng''s family, you''re afraid you really can''t disappear."


    Zhuo Xiqi said, "why is this?"


    Baiyunshu continued, "my mother doesn''t know. Mrs. Tao was the youngest daughter of the former Emperor, Mrs. Hu''s daughter, Princess Jing Rong."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "since she is a long princess, how can she have no title and no tomorrow?"


    Baiyunshu replied, "the case of Madam Hu''s witchcraft was widely implicated. Although Princess Jing Rongchang was engaged, she had not yet passed the door, so she was also implicated, demoted as a common people, and her name was removed from the Jade Butterfly. So my mother doesn''t know about it. "


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "I see. Do you know why she came to find this palace? "


    Bai Yunshu blushed and looked at the warmth of spring.


    Chunnuan also blushed. I don''t know how to say.


    Zhuo Xi sighed, "no, it seems that you''d better start your family and business earlier."


    As soon as they said this, their faces became more red.


    Zhuo Xi waved her hand, "since she is the emperor''s sister, please invite her in." After all, there is a layer of blood relationship. Since I have to die to see her, I''m afraid I''m desperate.


    Soon a woman was brought in and knelt on the ground.


    Zhuo Xi had some psychological preparation, but when she saw the woman, she still felt surprised. Although Mrs. Tao has no respect for the long princess, she is also one of the nine Qing''s Orthodox wives. Even if she is not full of pearls, she should at least be dignified, generous and low-key.


    But Zhuo Xi felt that the woman kneeling in front of her was too low-key. Not only the cloth dress and the Jing skirt, but also there was no jewelry on his head. His face was plain, makeup free and pale.


    Such makeup is too impolite in the palace.


    But when Zhuo Xi noticed the despair in his eyes, she couldn''t bear to scold him and asked softly, "what happened to Mrs. Tao? Why are you so haggard? " She thought that since she was the youngest daughter of the former Emperor, she must be smaller than Jing Yuan. Jing Yuan is only twenty-five this year. Why does this woman look like she has passed thirty?


    The woman''s face showed a great mourning color, but there was no tear in her eyes, as if she had cried dry. She fell deeply on the ground, "people''s women, people''s women came to beg their mother to give people''s women a way to live."


    Chunnuan shouted, "how can a bold woman talk nonsense in front of her mother?"


    Mrs. Tao shook her body on the ground and said in a low voice, "the people''s wife knows she is guilty and dare not ask for her mother''s grace. However, the civilian women have evidence that Tao Zongzheng colluded with the remaining evils of the previous dynasty to harm the emperor and the empress. Please also give the people''s women a peace and departure book for the sake of the people''s women''s exposing their meritorious deeds. "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked. "Tao Zongzheng colluded with the remaining evils of the previous dynasty?" Is it related to the night before returning to the palace? After returning to the palace, they have been investigating who leaked the route and time of the party back to the palace. The people who were originally taken out of the palace are basically confidants. There is no reason to leak their whereabouts, so they haven''t found a clue in a few days. The guards of the inner palace who were temporarily ordered to pick them up said they had received the order temporarily. Gu Jing, the deputy commander in charge of the guards of the inner palace, said that he only saw a woman holding a jade card to report the news. In order to be cautious, he sent a team of guards to pick them up. Unexpectedly, it was true. But then the woman was never found again.


    Is this woman Mrs. Tao?


    She asked, "when the emperor was in danger that night, did you send someone to report the letter?"


    Mrs. Tao nodded. "When my father was dying, he sent a jade card to the people''s wife, saying that he could enter the palace at the most critical moment. The people''s wife couldn''t travel, so she asked the nursing mother to go into the palace to report with this jade card. "


    Zhuo Xi was shocked that it was her... She remembered Jianshui and said that fortunately, a team came to meet her that day, otherwise the situation would be in danger.


    Mrs. Tao took out an object from her sleeve and put it flat on the ground in front of her head. "This is a letter between Tao Zhi and Mingyuan. Tao Zhi wanted to destroy it that night. The civilian woman noticed in advance and transcribed a copy and put it in place. This is the original of the letter."


    Zhuo Xi was confused, motioned chunnuan to show it to her, and asked, "Tao Zongzheng is in charge of Royal affairs. Why...?"


    Also, why does Tao Zhi sound so familiar?

 Chapter 299

    She suddenly realized that it was because Tao Zongzheng was in charge of Royal affairs that she must have known in advance that night that they were going to arrive at the palace the next day, so she inferred their route and time to return to the palace and leaked it to Mingyuan.


    Mrs. Tao thought she was asking why Tao Zhi betrayed the royal family. She was ashamed and said, "the civilian woman was demoted to the common people and married into the Tao family. Tao Zhi ridiculed and insinuated all the time that the civilian woman ruined his future and ruined the Tao family style. I''m afraid she has always held a grudge, so..."


    Zhuo Xi was speechless.


    Baiyunshu said angrily, "according to the rules, the emperor''s son-in-law is not allowed to be an official. After hearing that the former Emperor was kind and could not bear to let Princess Jing Rong live a hard life after being demoted as a common people, the lower official let Tao Fuma enter Zongzheng prison as a doctor in the year of his wedding. It''s only five years now, and he has been promoted all the way to the post of Zhongzheng. Unexpectedly, he doesn''t know how to be grateful and repay the hand that feeds the enemy! "


    Zhuo Xi slowly recovered from the shock and said sharply, "give this thing to the emperor and ask him to deal with it severely."


    The Spring Festival Gala received the letter and took the order.


    Mrs. Tao Jingrong raised her head and said in panic, "please give the people''s women a peace and leave book first."


    According to the law, Tao Zhi colluded with the remaining evils of the previous dynasty to harm the royal family. It is understandable that Mrs. Tao picked herself out in advance.


    Zhuo Xi thought of her request before. After thinking about it, she was shocked and asked, "is it for the sake of this palace to give you a peace and leave book?" If it''s just for peace and separation, why do you have to ruin your husband''s family? Besides, it''s not much easier for the government to deal with divorce cases now? Why bother to come to the palace?


    Jing Rong''s sad face was full of determination. "The people''s woman applied to the Kyoto government for peace and departure, but I don''t know what pressure Tao Zhi put on the Kyoto government, and she hasn''t accepted the people''s woman''s Application..."


    Zhuo Xi looked at her face, which was comparable to that of a woman with thirty faces upward, and habitually asked, "what grievances did madam suffer in the Tao family? If the palace can decide for you... "


    Jing Rong turned his head in shame and indignation, "the people''s women and the taojia are immortal! That is to pity the people''s women''s children. My mother is kind. Please give her grace and let the people''s women leave with Tao Zhi with their sons and daughters. The people''s women dare not presume that they are royal blood, but please see that they have entered the palace to be filial to the former Emperor and save their lives... Please. " She banged her head.


    Zhuo Xi realized that he Li was to save his son and daughter from the Tao family.


    Chunnuan sees that the empress doesn''t understand the gratitude and resentment between Tao Zhi and Mrs. Tao. She is so anxious that she gestures to her.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the gesture handed by chunnuan to her and suddenly remembered that Tao Zhi was the one castrated on the 16th of the first month they mentioned in the gossip?


    It can''t be true?


    Zhuo Xi felt that her mother''s love was rampant since she had xiaoyu''er. She couldn''t see the separation between children and their parents. When she was shocked, her heart became very soft and asked, "Mrs. Tao has a son and daughter? How old are they? "


    "My daughter is four years old and my son is two and a half years old." Jing Rong replied.


    "Why are you so young?" Zhuo Xi asked again.


    Jing Rong replied without hesitation, "the people''s wife has skimmed some books since childhood and still knows some Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting. The people''s wife heard that the women''s College hosted by Lord Ji is recruiting women teachers. The people''s wife wants to try."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and replied, "it''s so good." Anyway, it''s also a princess taught in the palace. Naturally, she has some experience. Looks like we''ve arranged our way back.


    Jing Rong''s face showed a look of joy. "Did you agree?"


    Zhuo Xi made up her mind again. She suddenly had an idea.


    She pondered for a moment and asked, "would you like to let you return?"


    "What, what?" Jing Rong was stunned, and her dry eyes began to shed tears again.


    Can you not only take your children and leave, but also return home?


    Dahui is something she has dared not think of for many years!


    After being demoted as a commoner, she thought she could find her own home by marrying the Tao family. Before marriage, taojia is very clean. Three years after marriage, I have both children and I think I can rely on them for the second half of my life. Who knows, Tao Zhi slowly took the concubine room one by one. Even if Tao Zhi sneers at her, even if Tao Zhi allows his groups of concubines to be jealous, he enjoys it, even if her two miscarriages after giving birth to her son are all related to these concubines, even if Tao Zhi tries to prevent her from asking the government for peace and departure... She also tolerates it. Who would have thought that those increasingly ambitious concubines would reach out to their son. How can she stand it?


    She didn''t dare to kill, but she broke his lifeblood in the chaos of Ji concubine''s jealousy. What else does he take to spoil Ji concubines? Ji concubines have no hope of having children. Can Tao Zhi sit idly by while his son is in danger?


    Who knows, after Tao Zhi was injured, he tortured her even more and locked her in the backyard to prevent her from seeing her son and daughter. She managed to escape from the firewood room and hid in Tao Zhi''s study. Only then did she find the evidence that Tao Zhi colluded with the Yu people of the previous dynasty to secretly harm the emperor and the queen. She found the nurse, took the jade card left by the emperor to save her life, and tried her best to inform the palace. Later, she was relieved to learn that the emperor and the queen had returned to the palace unharmed. Today, I saw the opportunity to bribe the gatekeeper and quietly entered the palace. So she had to die to see the queen. This was her last chance. Even if she gave her life, she also asked the queen to keep his children.


    Who knows that the queen not only promised to give her and leave the book and protect her children, but also let her return home with her children?


    What a great honor!


    Not only their own, but also their sons and daughters. Their future, their destination, have the opportunity to move towards a better ending.


    Her dry heart seemed to slowly inject a Wang of spring water, and gradually came to life. She kowtowed to the queen with tears, "civilian women, where do civilian women want to be? The civilian woman thanked the empress, thanked the empress... "She really couldn''t say anything. She was only grateful.


    "However, the palace has to ask the empress mother about it. If you like, go down to wash and go with the palace to see the queen mother. " Zhuo Xi took up the tea.


    Chunnuan and baiyunshu also slightly wet their eyes. Seeing that the queen brought tea, they got up, picked up Jingrong and took her down to wash.


    Jing Rong, under Chun Zao''s service, washed and changed into a new suit brought by the Queen''s mother, and sat in front of a bronze mirror. When Chun Zao put on her makeup, her shock and excitement calmed down slowly. This is where she grew up. After being demoted as a commoner, I thought I would never have a chance to come back. I never thought there was such a great fortune... The Empress Dowager actually called the Empress Dowager mother in front of her. Does that mean that the Empress Dowager treats herself as a relative??


    However, when the Empress Dowager was in the palace, she was still Mrs. Qing. She had no friendship with him


    With such uneasiness, she went to the empress. After saluting the empress, she followed the empress''s Luan drive to the direction of Ci''an palace.


    The moment before she stepped into the gate of Ci''an palace, she finally asked nervously, "empress dowager, is she in good health?"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "don''t be afraid. She can''t see the suffering of her relatives after her mother. Just tell the truth."


    Hearing zhuoxi''s title of "mother queen" again, Jing Rong was a little relieved.


    When they entered the Ci''an palace, the Empress Dowager was admiring some plum blossoms that heng''er picked from the back garden. Seeing Zhuo Xi coming in, he quickly waved to her, "look, girl Xi, how are these plum blossoms? There are green plum blossoms this year. I haven''t seen them in previous years. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled at her and said, "mother, aren''t you thinking about how to turn the green plum into flower tea?"


    The Empress Dowager "bah" said, "is AI Jia the kind of person who only knows how to eat in your eyes?"


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "plum blossom tea has the effects of relieving summer heat and generating fluid, appetizing and dispersing depression, detoxifying and generating muscle, SHUNQI and relieving cough. It is suitable for drinking in summer heat. However, if the plum blossom is added to the white porridge, it can soothe the liver and regulate qi, strengthen the spleen and appetizer, awaken the brain and brighten the eyes. There is a special fragrance in it. Are you sure you don''t want to taste it? "


    The empress said, "go and have a taste of the porridge. Hurry to the other empress Gu''s house."


    Heng''er ran over and asked the empress for advice, "empress, can the plum blossom take the outermost petals? How much is needed? "


    "It doesn''t need too much. Five plum blossoms are enough for one or two meters."


    Heng''er went down happily and saw a man standing next to the queen. Looking at the clothes, he was gorgeous, but he had no headdress and couldn''t see the steps, but he politely blessed her before he went out.


    The Empress Dowager returned to her seat, and Zhuo Xi sat down in a chair beside her.


    The Empress Dowager found that there was a man standing next to the queen.


    She looked familiar, but she couldn''t remember who it was for the moment.


    Zhuo Xi motioned to Jing Rong


    Jing Rong walked slowly to the empress dowager, knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager and was about to speak.


    The Empress Dowager stopped her with a gesture. After staring at her for a long time, she hesitated and asked, "are you sister Rong?"


    Jingrong burst into tears, kowtowed to her and said, "empress dowager, I''m Jingrong, I''m Jingrong!"


    The Empress Dowager was helpless. "Sister Rong, how do you... AI Jia remembers that you are three years younger than the Emperor... How do you..."


    The girl seems to have suffered a lot after being demoted as a commoner, but in the final analysis, she is the commoner daughter of her husband and has nothing to do with herself. Although she is now the empress dowager, she enjoys the honor given by her son and is not called her legitimate mother. How can she be so excited when she sees herself?


    So she said, "Ai family, remember, you married Tao family? The emperor was afraid that you would suffer hardship after you married, so he specially let Tao''s son-in-law into Zong Zhengjian... You, you gave birth to a big girl, didn''t you? AI Jia still remembers that the emperor wanted to have a look and asked the nanny to bring her into the palace... "

 Chapter 300

    Speaking of the Tao family, Jing Rong immediately lost her tears. She said angrily, "Tao Zhi, that beast, is simply revenge for kindness. It''s just that he doesn''t want his life. He will also involve my son and daughter! Ask the Empress Dowager to make decisions for the people''s women! "


    "What happened?"


    Jing Rong slowly told the Empress Dowager what had happened in recent years.


    "That year, after my mother... Fell into the law... My wife was demoted to the common people... I originally wanted to be filial piety for my mother for three years... But the Tao family was afraid of delaying the incense and proposed to marry when they were filial... My wife understood that it was arranged by my father... He was afraid that my wife would make the Tao family more unhappy by being filial to her mother under such circumstances, which would make my wife disliked by my husband''s family


    "Later, the people''s wife knew that her father had arranged for Tao Zhi to be appointed as a senior doctor of Zongzheng prison as compensation for the people''s wife no longer enjoying the respect of the princess... So the Tao family had to marry in a hurry... The people''s wife happily married to the Tao family and saw that there was no room beside her husband, so she thought her husband was sincere to each other. The days of the first two years were flat and harmonious, Especially after the birth of the eldest daughter Xuan Xuan, the father was also very happy. He specially gave many gifts and asked the nursing mother to carry him into the palace.


    "But the good times didn''t last long. After my father was seriously ill, the civilian women had no way to enter the palace, and Tao Zhi began to spend a lot of time... The civilian women were pregnant with Xuanze, so they couldn''t stop him from taking concubines... The Tao family began to sneer at me... My mother-in-law often said that the civilian women had no rank and no high command, and there was no way to go into the palace to ask her mother... My mother-in-law took back my right to take care of Zhongfu, The concubine of Tao Zhixin was not so careful in her diet... She also tampered with her diet and almost caused miscarriage of civilian women... Fortunately, the nursing mother of civilian women took good care of her and kept the main house airtight, so Xuanze was born safely


    "After the death of the father, the people''s wife just wanted to keep a pair of children growing up safely. She didn''t want to worry too much with Tao Zhi''s concubines, so she let them bully at home. Tao Zhi seemed to find pleasure in their jealousy. Instead of stopping them, he indulged them to do everything they could. After the emperor ascended the throne, Tao Zhisheng was in a good mood for Zongzheng for a period of time, with a smile to the civilian women. But after another period of time, the husband began to get upset again. He said that the cabinet was selecting officials with more than three lives, but he was not elected... He once asked the civilian women to find a way to enter the palace to ask the queen, but the civilian women have been demoted to the common people. How can they enter the palace?


    "After that, Tao Zhi and his mother-in-law began to punch and kick the civilian women again, mocking and saying that the civilian women missed their husband''s future and ruined the Taos'' family style. Last July, Minfu was diagnosed as three months pregnant, but at the end of July, when her mother-in-law was born, they proposed to go to the back garden to collect lotus leaves and race the dragon boat. Minfu was careful and didn''t want to go. Unexpectedly, she fell down and became popular. The civilian woman knew that someone pushed it, but because there was no evidence, the civilian woman could not appeal to her mother-in-law and husband. Who knows, Tao Zhi, an animal, said it was the delicacy of the people''s women. He deliberately fell and ruined her mother-in-law''s interest in playing on her birthday. He punched and kicked the people''s women, and Sheng Sheng lost the fetus that was easy to keep


    "It doesn''t matter if they hit me. However, on the eve of the Chinese new year, an aunt lured Xuanze to play by the lotus pool in the back garden. Fortunately, Minfu''s nursing mother found it early and quickly grabbed Xuanze back. Otherwise, I don''t know what will happen... On New Year''s Eve, Tao Zhi entered the palace to attend the Palace Banquet. Her mother-in-law had only five orders. She couldn''t enter the palace to attend the Palace Banquet, so she sent her anger to the civilian women, who even let the civilian women stand at the gate for four hours to welcome her husband. After Tao Zhi came back, the civilian woman was frozen stiff and almost unconscious. When she returned to the house, she had a high fever. It was the nursing mother who asked the government doctor to prescribe a prescription and guarded the civilian woman all night before she slowly retreated and burned


    "People''s women have sprouted to go to Italy many times since miscarriage. When the court issued the order of monogamy, the civilian women repeatedly asked the government to make peace and leave. But I don''t know what Tao Zhi did, so that the government always refused to accept the people''s women''s request. During the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month, the civilian woman was going to sleep, but she was awakened by the maid. She said that a concubine might have miscarriage. Let the civilian woman go and have a look. When the civilian woman arrived, she knew that it was Tao Zhizheng who was having sex with her. My concubine had a sharp pain in her abdomen and had seen red.


    "The people''s wife hurriedly called someone to ask for the government doctor. When there was a mess, two concubines took advantage of the situation and tried to forcibly pull Tao Zhi away. Unexpectedly, they fought on the spot. The concubine in the miscarriage was so angry that she picked up the scissors and cut it off towards Tao Zhi''s lower abdomen... The people''s wife had long been angry and hated and vowed not to die with him! Seeing that the concubine''s scissors were not accurate, he pressed Tao Zhi and added another one


    When her mother-in-law came, she cried on the spot and locked the civilian woman in the firewood house.


    "The nanny of the people''s wife secretly sent some food and drink to the people''s wife, so that the people''s wife can survive. Later, a civilian woman once found that the door lock could be opened with a hairpin. In order to avoid them finding out, the civilian woman only sneaked out at night, looking for an opportunity to abscond with her children. Once, hiding in his study, he found that Tao Zhi colluded with the remaining evils of the previous dynasty and wanted to poison the emperor and the queen. The people''s wife was so frightened that she transcribed the letter and stole it, hoping that the nursing mother would find a way to send it to the palace.


    "Before his death, my father sent a jade card to the people''s wife. He said that he could enter the palace with this jade card at the most urgent moment. The nurse took the jade card into the palace, found the guard leader and explained the situation to him, but the guard didn''t seem to believe it, and the nurse couldn''t help it. Two days later, when the nurse heard that the emperor and the queen had returned to the palace safely, the people''s wife was relieved. Last night, the civilian woman sneaked out at night and didn''t dare to enter the palace until dawn to ask her mother. Tell on Tao Zhi because the beast has really committed a heinous crime. But I beg your mother to save Xuanxuan and Xuanze for the sake of the people''s wife Dai''s crime and meritorious service! "


    ¡­¡­


    Zhuo Xi was so happy that she could hear the first-hand gossip. Can hear behind, more and more angry, also more and more distressed.


    The Empress Dowager wiped her tears long ago. When she heard the last, she said repeatedly, "cut! Cut! This beast! We must copy and kill him all over the nine families! Poor rong''er, why didn''t you come back earlier and ask the mourner to decide for you? "


    Jing Rong fell on the Empress Dowager''s knee and cried, "how dare a civilian woman ask for her grace? The people''s wife just wants to rescue her son and daughter by means of peace and separation first, so as not to implicate them. "


    Zhuo Xi said at the right time, "the queen mother is also the daughter of the royal family. How can she be bullied here? Sister Rong must stay with her when she is in trouble, and the two children must be saved. Besides, sister Rong informs us that she has made two great achievements in denouncing the traitor. The palace is worried about her sister''s life with a pair of children after she leaves, and wants her to return home with her children. How do you feel? "


    The Empress Dowager wiped her tears and nodded frequently, "Da GUI, Da GUI!"


    Jing Rong cried louder.


    On the other side, Jing Yuan looked at the letter in his hand and immediately threw it to Ting Wei Zhang Yu.


    As soon as Zhang Yu saw that it was a big case involving the assassination of the emperor and Empress and the remaining evils of the previous dynasty, he dared to say more. He immediately sent Tingwei''s soldiers to surround Tao''s house. The news that Tao Zhi''s children and grandchildren were cut off has long been secretly spread all over the capital city, and the people of the Tao family have long been ridiculed as rats crossing the street. In order to hide people''s eyes and ears, Tao Zhi deliberately sang every night. It is said that when Tao Zhi was arrested, he was still lying on the breasts of two concubines eating grapes.


    At the behest of the empress, among Tao Zhi''s sons and daughters, only the eldest son and daughter and their nursing mothers were taken to Ning''an palace.


    Jing Rong saw several people crying with their heads folded, and kowtowed to Zhuo Xi to thank him for his life.


    After a few people washed, Jing Rong took her children to Ci''an palace to thank the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager had no resistance to her children. When she saw the two children carved with powder and jade, she was very soft hearted. She cried with her two children "heart-to-heart" and said something to let the mother and son live at ease before she let them back down and be safe.


    When Jing Yuan came back in the evening, Zhuo Xi said something about Jing Rong while painfully pressing the wound medicine on his shoulder.


    Jing Yuan said, "this sister Wang was not very close to me since she was a child. I was not in Kyoto when she was demoted as a common people, so I didn''t pay too much attention to her. I didn''t expect her to be so miserable... And I didn''t expect that my brother-in-law could collude with Mingyuan... "


    Zhuo Xi carefully leaned over his shoulder and applied Jinchuang medicine. "How many brothers and sisters do you have in total, don''t you know?"


    He thought, "I''m sixth. Naturally, there are five brothers in front, but now I''m the only one left... Jing Rong is the youngest sister, about fourth or fifth... Remember how many are useful? It makes sense to see who lives last... "


    It''s really heartless


    Zhuo Xi tilted her lips... And asked, "I didn''t read the letter carefully. Did Tao Zhi have his brain kicked by a donkey or his IQ gnawed by a pig, and even put one of the good Jiuqing days? However, he wanted to collude with foreign enemies to murder the royal family?"


    "Mingyuan''s letter said that there was a jade mine given to him. After the success, there was the work of the Dragon... What is the cabinet? After the success, he directly sealed a big Sima... Under such inducement, he was a Phoenix, and his brain had to become a pig''s brain..."


    "Don''t insult us, Phoenix, will you? If he knew that the jade mine would have been sent to Xiao yu''er''s hand, would he want to cry without tears? "


    Jing Yuan smiled, "you also said that it was Xiao Yu''s!"


    She was angry, "what happened to Xiao Yu''s son?"


    "Don''t hide the income under your bed..."


    "What''s the matter with hiding under my bed? I''ll keep it for him first. It''s his wife Ben from now on! "


    Jing Yuan laughed, "did you send someone to take over the jade mine?"


    Zhuo Xi was stunned. "Can''t you sit and wait for the money with that jade card?"


    Jing Yuan couldn''t stop laughing. "You started to be silly as soon as the child got on the body?"


    Zhuo Xi''s medicine hand pressed hard, and Jing Yuan "hissed".

 Chapter 301

    "Let you laugh at me again. Tomorrow you will send someone to receive it for me!"


    "Are you sure you want me to send someone? You''re not afraid of the gold you bring back... It''s all going to be hidden under your bed. " Jing Yuan smiles again.


    She glanced at him. "If you don''t even buckle your son''s wife, I''ll tell him his father is a miser when he grows up!"


    Jing Yuan''s chest banged with laughter.


    Zhuo Xi held him down, some speechless, "laugh again, laugh again, the medicine is all white!"


    Jing Yuan stopped laughing and pinched her nose. "Although Rong Mei is my sister, you just saved her and her children, but let her return to the palace and enjoy honor... What''s the small 99 in your heart?"


    Zhuo Xi patted off his hand, took the gauze and began to bandage him. "In your mind, I must have a purpose when I do something good?"


    "You never get up early!"


    She finally tied a small bow on the gauze and asked naughtily, "guess what my purpose is?"


    Jing Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I can''t see that you are very distressed about Ji ruomin."


    Zhuo Xi said "ah" and stared at him in amazement, "are you... Are you sure you''re not reincarnated?"


    He pulled her into his arms. "As you said, a good leader should know how to mobilize resources to the greatest extent. How can a good sister cultivated by the royal family for many years be wasted in a dirty place like Tao mansion?! Fortunately, you found a good place for her and a good helper for Ji ruomin. Otherwise, I''m afraid Zi Ran will start staring at me in a few days! "


    She began to calculate again, "do you say that sister Mo and sister Qian would like to..."


    He turned over and pressed her down, "they are still busy raising villains. Do you say they are free..."


    "Hey, you should also pay attention to this little man on me. Don''t move..."


    He did not move, his lips just bit her neck, and his teeth began to bite carefully.


    She secretly hated, "come down first, villains without pressure..."


    He smiled, "hold still, hold still?"


    She pushed him away. "Come down first!"


    His hand reached into her skirt, was caught by her and asked dangerously, "anyway, it''s just that you can touch it and can''t eat it. Are you sure you want to move?"


    He took back his arm bitterly, held her honestly in his arms, closed his eyes and went to sleep.


    The Tao Zhi case was tried very quickly.


    As early as the night of the 26th, Mingyuan died in the battle with Jing Yuan and others, leaving several unimportant prisoners alive. These people have long been interrogated to death. When they confessed to Tao Zhi''s case, they basically said what they said. So Tao Zhi''s case was tried very quickly. There were both witness and material evidence. Three days later, he was sentenced to kill the three families.


    Because Jing Rong made a great contribution to the accusation, he returned home with his children after telling the world. Only in this way can he be named zhengyanshun.


    These two extreme news came out, and the people in Kyoto had not reacted, so it was the day of execution.


    Zhuo Xi knew that Jing Rong hated Tao Zhi, so she took her out of the palace to breathe. She stopped by to see the tragedy of Tao Zhi''s execution and solve her hatred.


    Tao Zhi has been accusing and abusing all the way.


    Zhuo Xi sat in the restaurant facing the entrance of the vegetable market with a few warm spring flowers. Under the window was the busiest East Street.


    The prison car is driving on Qingshiban road. Tao Zhi sitting at the head of the car has scolded powerlessly, and there are dirty items such as vegetable leaves and eggs hanging on his head.


    The onlookers also pointed, laughed and scolded.


    Finally, the prison car stopped under the steps of Caishikou execution ground.


    Jing Rong is holding a food box and waiting nearby. Along the way, she had heard too much talk about her, all scolding her for selling her husband for glory, being greedy for life and afraid of death, being malicious and so on.


    Hundreds of Tao Zhi and his party were taken to the execution ground.


    Tao Zhi and Tao''s mother and children were lined up at Tao Zhi''s hearing.

 Chapter 302

    Jing Rong took another powerful medicine, "don''t you know? Zongrensi also went to their former hiding place in the mouth of the killers and found the letter you wrote to Prince Mingyuan. I can''t imagine that you, a thin and cool man, are very affectionate to the title of the prince. It also states that after he completes his work, don''t forget the big Sima promised to you. You won''t forget the letter you wrote yourself? "


    There was another uproar among the onlookers.


    "No? Is it really Tao Zhigan? "


    "Damn it! God damn it! Nowadays, the emperor and empress are such good people. How can anyone want to harm them?! The year before last, my grandson contracted hand, foot and mouth disease, which was cured by the queen! "


    "Yes! Last year, my family was affected by the disaster and begged all the way to Kyoto for a bite of food. The emperor ordered us to open a porridge shed and enlisted us to repair the river. Our family survived. This year, we opened an mu of wasteland in the suburbs of Beijing, which took root... "An old voice said.


    "Our people in Daliang have never been under the care of the emperor and empress! My grandfather went to the flood six years ago. Last year''s flood was even worse than the flood six years ago, but not many people died last year. As far as I know, all the people who arrived near Kyoto were resettled and survived... "


    "Isn''t that? Just say that the royal construction team, how many slaves like us have been recruited in recent years? It''s better to eat by labor than to sell yourself to the owner as a cow and horse! Over the years, I have saved two large vats of wages, bought a house and prepared to marry my daughter-in-law... I still have a chance to get rid of slavery and turn into a craftsman! " A young man''s voice sounded.


    "Don''t tell me, our Wu family''s caravan has never been out of Yizhou before. Now it can travel all the way to Daliao... The Wu family''s caravan has expanded more than several times in recent years... The number of workers recruited has also increased several times..."


    "You see, only a few years after the new emperor ascended the throne, how many female children with broken legs begging in the street? Those children who were born without anyone to raise were not thrown away. They were sent to the feather coat door for adoption. They live and die. People can be cheap themselves. How can they be cheap children? That''s the conscience of God''s death. The dog ate it! "


    "Such a good emperor and queen, someone wants to harm them! If you let me know, I will fight with him! "


    "Yes, yes! If I know, I will try my best to kill him! "


    Tao''s mother had been hit repeatedly, but she couldn''t get back to her God. She spewed out an old mouthful of blood, "zhi''er, zhi''er... You really..."


    Tao Zhi was already red eyed and laughed three times, "ha ha ha! I did it. What can you do?! Lao Tzu has only been promoted from a doctor to Zongzheng for five years. The emperor is not allowed to enter the cabinet! Aren''t you holding me back?! I''ll pet whoever I love. There''s a limit to your jealousy! If you hadn''t cut me off, I would have done this fucking thing! "


    "He really did it! He finally admitted it himself! Kill him, beast! " The people were angry.


    "Such a person can''t even kill the nine families! Why did you kill the three families? "


    "The emperor must be reading the love of Princess Jing Rongchang?! Still give him one side in vain! "


    "What can such a man give him?! Execute quickly and let him go to hell! "


    A group of vegetable leaves and eggs crackled at him.


    Jing dissolved in silence for a moment. When the voices of the people around him calmed down, he asked loudly, "Zongzheng is already one of the nine Qings. Are you not satisfied? Doctor Shang is already a four life official. Are you still low? If my father didn''t pity me and was demoted to the common people, do you think your son-in-law would have the opportunity to worship the doctor? The cabinet has its own rules. Why do you want to rise to the sky step by step, with your pig brain arched by a pig? "


    The people suddenly realized, "is Tao Zhi a son-in-law? According to the law, the son-in-law can''t be an official? "


    "So Tao Zhi was promoted by his wife? Four lives in the beginning? He was promoted to one of the nine Qing''s in five years? It''s true that people''s hearts are not enough. Snakes swallow elephants! "


    "This man is so cheap! The official position obtained by his wife is to blame his wife for holding him back! What a man! "


    Tao''s mother was paralyzed on the ground.


    Jing Rong said, "I''ll give birth to children for you. It''s just that you accept concubines. But you shouldn''t do it. On the day of my mother-in-law''s birthday, you beat down my baby. I blame myself for being careless! You spoil your concubine and destroy your wife, but you should never indulge your concubine room to secretly harm my ze''er. He is your only legitimate eldest son! "


    "God damn it, what kind of man is this! Not only do you do it to a woman, but also kill her fetus alive? " The man next to him sighed.


    "Is there a limit to spoil my wife? The eldest son can do it, really not a man! "


    "You know what? He''s going to sit on the big Sima with the work of the dragon. Does he want to keep the demoted princess in the previous dynasty to occupy the position of the main wife? Isn''t the eldest son the same when the time comes? "


    "Tut Tut, you really have a vicious mind!"


    Several relatives of the Tao family heard their conversation all the way back and scolded Tao Zhi, "Tao Zhi, you little beast! After doing so many outrageous things, more than 30 members of our family died with you! You give me back my life! "


    "Tao Zhi, I will not let you go if I am a ghost! I curse you to go down to 18 levels of hell and fall into the beast road forever! "


    ¡°¡­¡­¡±


    Jing Rong had filled all the wine glasses on the ground and said to Tao''s mother, "mother-in-law, Tao Zhi and I have a good or bad husband and wife. I also called your mother-in-law for five years. Just before you die, I''ll give you one last ride. Drink and eat! "


    Tao''s mother was paralyzed on the ground. Her eyes were dull and murmured, "you can''t die well, you can''t die well..."


    Jing Rong picked up the wine glass and poured it down into her mouth. Most of the wine was spilled aside and said, "grandma, it was really hard for you to be a widow in your early years. But if you hadn''t taught Tao Zhi to be selfish and mercenary since childhood, if you hadn''t been fanning the flames in his ears, he could blame me for everything and commit such a great crime against heaven? "


    She picked up another dish and went to the frontier fortress of Tao zhizui. "One day, husband and wife bairien, if you hadn''t committed a heinous crime and ze''er almost killed you, how could I want to kill you?"


    Tao Zhi spit out the food in his mouth and sneered, "fish die and the net is broken? My fish is dying. Your net is alive and well. You have climbed to the royal family and become a golden net! You bitch who sells her husband for glory! "


    Jing Rong arched his hand in the direction of the palace, "the emperor and empress have great grace and are well received by the world. On that day, I sent my nurse to inform the palace. Fellow villagers, if you learned that someone had secretly murdered the emperor and queen, would you sit idly by? "


    "Who dares to harm the empress? I tried my best to save him! "


    "If it hadn''t been for the queen, my old life would have died in the spring mountain forest! Who wants to kill the emperor, I am the first to jump out and kill him! "


    "Princess Chang, you did the right thing! Such a husband''s family should have cut thousands of knives and ashes! Luckily you tipped off! My old man thanked you for the people all over the world! "


    "Thank you, Princess!"


    Jing Rong shed tears. "It''s our great blessing that the people can get such protection from the emperor and queen!"


    The harmony of the people was deafening, "great cool blessing! The blessing of great coolness! "


    A woman struggled to come up from Tao Zhi. "Princess long, why do we implicate innocence after the emperor''s kindness?" The crime was committed by Tao Zhi alone. He was cut to pieces. Why should we all be buried with him? "


    Jing Rong took a look at her and found that she was Tao Zhi''s favorite concubine. She sneered, "the law is cool and intends to murder the people of the royal family, even killing nine families. If the princess hadn''t pleaded for you, I''m afraid there would be hundreds more people on the execution ground! "


    The concubine threw herself at her feet. "Your Highness, your servant, please, your child''s innocence. Please open your heart and let go of Tao!" He''s only one year old! Please, save his life! He doesn''t know anything... "


    Jing Rong looked at her and said, "so how do Taoists get used to their insatiable greed? Originally, he could not be an official in the DPRK. When he came to the official to worship Jiuqing, he actually despised being unable to join the cabinet and sold for glory; Originally, we wanted to kill the nine tribes, but now we only kill the three tribes. We also want to spare the yellow children. What if you spare the Yellow mouth child? Do you want to let you go and you? Do you just let everything go? How big a face do you think I can change even the king''s law? Don''t you think about what kind of cause will have what kind of effect? Tao Zhi caused everything today! If you have resentment and hatred, go all at him! "


    She finished, brushed her sleeves and got off the guillotine.


    The people around are still talking, "it''s insatiable. The eldest princess is right. All sins arise from Tao Zhi! I can''t blame others! "


    Jing Rong looked back at the missing carving on the execution ground and remembered that the queen left her alone yesterday. She smiled and said, "it''s conditional for you to return..."


    She thought for a moment and resolutely returned to the guillotine.


    The angry people saw that the princess stepped up the steps again and couldn''t help but stop talking and stare at her.


    Jing Rong has lost his timidity in the face of thousands of eyes.


    She cleared her throat and said, "I came here on foot just now. First, I came here as an ordinary people to show the world the truth. Don''t be cheated by traitors. Second, I would like to take this opportunity to announce to you a major event to be promulgated in the world - the women''s Medical University founded by the queen will be unveiled in three days. This palace was once a noble daughter of the royal family. She was trapped in the inner wall of the backyard every day without knowing it. It is really a shame to be taught by the former Emperor.


    "The women''s Medical University will open a college of medicine, a college of pharmacy and a college of nursing. Women all over the world, those who are interested can go and have a try. After passing the examination, the slave nationality can become a good nationality and be assigned to the selected college for study according to their wishes. After graduating from the school four years later, they can go to Taiyuan hospital, major medical stores and pharmacies as female doctors, female pharmacists and female nurses! The palace is now neither bound by her husband''s family nor afraid to appear in public. With a little knowledge of the four books, we are about to assume the responsibility of tutoring and reading before the examination. This is the duty of the palace as a royal daughter and an example of the palace as an unfortunate woman in the world!


    "All women in the world, regardless of their birth experience, as long as they abide by the law and are between the ages of six and 40, can sign up for the entrance examination. We take this opportunity to advertise to you and hope you can advertise to your relatives and friends when you go back. Treating the sick and saving people is the great cause of futu. My generation of women, with such a good opportunity, how can they lose to men? "

 Chapter 303

    She jumped off the guillotine and swaggered forward in a dull sight. Ahead, there is a bright future.


    She hurried all the way and was busy answering the questions raised by the excited passers-by, "of course it''s true. The queen promised herself. How can it be false?"


    "There will be a list at the entrance of the vegetable market in three days. Please check the registration method and place carefully."


    "This matter has been prepared for more than half a year and is absolutely reliable."


    "Tuition? Tuition may depend on the subject... "


    "Nursing school should be free."


    "Of course female doctors are popular? If your wife is ill, would you like a female doctor or a male doctor to see her? "


    "The female pharmacist is also good. Isn''t the queen born as a pharmacist... There are countless living people..."


    "Illiterate? If you study hard with this palace during your preparation for the exam, it''s not hopeless... "


    "I heard that there will be special hospitals in the future... Employment will certainly not be a problem..."


    ¡­¡­


    She managed to squeeze out of the crowd and looked at the window of the restaurant on the side of the road. The people inside nodded and smiled at her. She suddenly felt that she had done the right thing


    Zhuo Xi nodded towards chunnuan, "see? This is the real aura of the Royal daughter. The real heaven decoration nobles turn the people''s dislike of themselves into admiration in the twinkling of an eye... "


    Jing Rong, who pushed the door and entered, knelt down and burst into tears. "Thank you, empress, for giving me this opportunity..." in front of her, she didn''t dare to call herself the palace.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "get up quickly. Just now you did a good job, which not only showed the shameless and despicable of scum men, but also the self-esteem and self-improvement of women. If you have fulfilled your wish, you should take care of the affairs of the Medical University for the palace wholeheartedly in the future. You can''t neglect it. " It turns out that this is the feeling of being backstage. It''s too fulfilling. Are you wooden?


    Moreover, several people captured in Qian''an garden that night were also executed in public. If the remaining forces of the Yu Ming generation saw it, they naturally knew that today''s scene was inspired by the queen and could understand their attitude and position. There won''t be any more people coming over to perform a dog blood show?


    Speaking of it, Jing Rong really helped herself a lot.


    "I, I will devote myself to death." Jing Rong replied.


    Zhuo Xi immediately remembered that she made the enrollment of women''s Medical University public in advance, and said sadly, "open the registration channel in three days and learn from others in three months. I''m afraid it''s too late! I don''t know if Ji ruomin recruited female doctors all over the world last time... "No, so I had to let the male Royal doctors of the Royal Medical Department top first. No one stipulated that there should be no male teachers in the women''s school?


    She stood up and said, "let''s go to the construction site of Lord Ji. How is the school building now? Although school doesn''t really start until September, if those who come to register see only a few piles of adobe, I''m afraid it will affect their reputation... "


    Chunnuan followed silently. Empress, who dares to gossip with your call?


    Zhuo Xi was still saying, "by the way, sister Rong, you have to recruit some administrative and logistics personnel... If you want pre-test counseling, you have to write some counseling materials. There are also textbooks for formal classes... Ah, and teaching Dana... Why are there so many things? " She suddenly felt that she couldn''t be busy even if she had three heads and six arms


    No, let Bai Yunshu draw up a plan tomorrow. First recruit female officials at xungui''s house in Kyoto... Let those imperial doctors in the imperial hospital train first


    She suddenly remembered Ji ruomin''s gloomy face. It turned out that... She was not premarital anxiety, but busy anxiety... No, let her do the marriage quickly, so that she could devote herself to this Medical University


    The medical university is located on an unknown hill in the south. Zhuo Xi gave a man named Nanshan at will.


    When we got there, a three-story comprehensive building was only built in less than half, and it is under intensive construction


    The dormitory is still digging the foundation, and the teaching building is watering the ground on the first floor


    She pondered that the registration address should find a temporary place. Three months later, the administrative building and teaching building should be almost available


    Ji ruomin wears a helmet and runs over, "madam, why are you here? It''s dusty here, you still... "


    "This is my hard work, my hope, my sustenance... Won''t you let me see?"


    Ji ruomin''s face is black. With your hard work, your hope and your sustenance, you can not see anyone for a month. You don''t even write a letter?


    Without a word, she took her to see in the complex building, and called Kou Anli over, "Lord Kou, you can report the progress of the project."


    Zhuo Xi saw Kou andI as if she had seen a ghost, "you... You... Aren''t you in the Xishan villa group project of the young master of the Wu family?"


    Kou Anli bowed and said, "this place is planned by the empress herself. The lower officials naturally follow her lead. The drawings of Xishan villa group have been designed, and the royal construction team has constructed according to the drawings, which is not a big problem. I have to go and see it every few days. "


    Zhuo Xi''s heart was weeping, "the Xishan villa group is also very important. Lord Kou should keep an eye on it..."


    The university is burning money, but the villa area is a profitable project. If it is screwed up


    She turned her head and told chunnuan, "let the eldest young master of the Wu family come into the palace to see the Palace tomorrow. The Palace should know the progress there."


    Kou Anli blessed her, "I inform your mother that the construction of Xishan villa area has started, and the blank house is expected to be released in early May. The model house has begun to enter the decoration process, and some materials are still on the way, especially the batch of lamps agreed with adult Yu years ago, which can only be delivered next month... "


    Zhuo Xi listened to the orderly progress of the project, slightly relieved, looked at the pattern of the administrative building, discussed with Kou anding from time to time, and explained the staffing problem with Ji ruomin


    She then remembered to formally introduce Jing Rong, "ruomin, you should also know about Princess Jing Rong''s return to the palace. She has nothing to do. She knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. The palace hopes that she can set up general literacy courses for medical universities in the future. After students sign up, they can also carry out basic literacy education. At the same time, let her help you take care of the affairs related to the Medical University. Do you think so? "


    Ji ruomin was overjoyed, saluted Jing Rong and said, "thank you, princess."


    Jing Rong quickly returned the salute and said, "Lord Ji is polite. In the future, Lord Ji is a senior official. Please give me more advice."


    When they returned to the palace, the lights were already on.


    Yu Meng and Mrs. Yu waited for a long time in Ning''an palace.


    Zhuo Xi saw Yu Meng and immediately said, "when can your lamps be delivered? Your lamps are waiting in the model room! "


    Yu Meng carefully put Xiaobai down in his arms and said shamefully, "Xiaobai is almost as good now. I was going to leave on the 16th of the first month, but I haven''t seen my sister. I always want to wait for you to say goodbye to my sister when you come back, and then set off for Liangzhou. That''s the delay. Today I came to say goodbye to my sister. "


    Zhuo Xi hugged Xiaobai, stroked his forehead and said, "are you really well?"


    Xiaobai nodded cleverly.


    She looked at Yu Meng and felt that she was a little too anxious. She relaxed and said, "I''m leaving today. Is it so urgent? Has everything been sorted? "


    Yu Meng replied, "there was nothing. A few days ago, Mrs. Yu was frightened, so I accompanied her more and talked to her for a few days. Now she is also very safe, and I can walk with some peace of mind. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "you have a heart. My sister knows you are going to do great things, so she won''t keep you. You all stay at Ning''an palace for dinner tonight. It''s my sister who sees you off. "


    Yu Mengying is.


    Mrs. Yu smiled and looked at the early spring.


    Chunzao, who was waiting on the side, immediately brought a cup of food. "Madam, this is the recipe for stewed sea cucumber with flower glue that Mrs. Yu said. It''s the most nourishing. Drink it while it''s hot."


    Zhuo Xi put Xiaobai on the ground and watched it swim a few times. After it was almost the same as before, she called wordless and took Xiaobai Haosheng down and settled down.


    She then took over the sea cucumber with glue carried by chunzao and thought about finding something for Mrs. Yu to do. Otherwise, let her feed it like this seven or eight times a day. It''s strange that she doesn''t get fat and become a Garfield.


    She had a flash of inspiration and asked with a smile, "is Mrs. Yu used to living in the palace?"


    Mrs. Yu replied happily, "habit, habit, they are all very good to me. I can often go to see the prince. I really have nothing to ask for. "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "there is a good sister in the palace who is about to get married. The family is worried that there is no elder to preside over. She''s busy herself. Would you like to help? "


    Mrs. Yu was stunned and then rejoiced, "madam, madam can let me handle these things, but she doesn''t treat me as an outsider. Where am I reluctant? "


    Zhuo Xi told her about Ji ruomin and Zi Ran''s family.


    Mrs. Yu pondered, "the Ji family has two aunts and three sisters. It is reasonable to say that women are enough. But the bridegroom''s family has no female dependents, which is not suitable. Why don''t I help decorate the new house as the bride of the groom''s family? "


    The bridegroom''s family members usually come forward to decorate the new house.


    Zhuo Xi thought so and nodded.


    In the evening, when Jing Yuan came back, Zhuo Xi told him about it. Jing Yuan also felt very good. An elder presided over the marriage at home. Both the man and the woman felt better in face.


    Zhuo Xi feels really tired to settle down these miscellaneous things


    She held xiaoyu''er in bed for a while and felt very sleepy. Just before going to sleep, Jingyuan took xiaoyu''er out to mother Wu.


    She murmured, "I haven''t slept with Xiao yu''er for a long time. Don''t take him away!"


    Jing Yuan replied, "good, Xiao Yu''s feet don''t matter when he sleeps. It''s bad if he kicks you." As he spoke, he carefully took her into his arms and closed his eyes with satisfaction.

 Chapter 304

    The Empress Dowager specially arranged a palace banquet for Zhuo Xi, Jing Qian, Jing Rong and Mrs. Qin, Princess Luo Yuan and Yanling, and Jing Rong''s sons and daughters Xuan Xuan and Xuan Ze. Jing Mo didn''t invite her because she was still in her month.


    Zhuo Xi attended in full dress.


    When she arrived, she found that the table of the Palace Banquet had been restored to the original table.


    The Empress Dowager seldom arranges the Palace Banquet in such a grand but slightly different way. She invites the legitimate women''s dependents. It must be an important thing.


    Although Jing Rong had met the Empress Dowager before, she never entered the Ci''an palace after she returned home, except that she brought the children to thank her on the day she received the Yi order. She was not familiar with the empress dowager, and she didn''t know the Empress Dowager''s temperament. She didn''t dare to come rashly


    I''ve been a little nervous about getting invited today. Seeing the empress was there, I was a little relieved.


    When several people sat down, they found that there was a strange palace beauty sitting at the end. It looked like a girl dressed up. Everyone didn''t know, but it was difficult to ask each other in the space.


    The Empress Dowager raised her glass with a smile, "what comes today is the blood of our royal family. I won''t bother their men to participate in the affairs of the women''s dependents. AI Jia, I have two things to announce today. One is to welcome Jing Rong Da GUI. Previously, due to the will of the former Emperor, the AI family really forgot sister Rong in the past few years. It shouldn''t be. Now sister Rong can return to the palace. It''s a great joy. The Tao family is a criminal minister. If sister Rong''s two children continue to be surnamed Tao, they will inevitably be implicated by the Tao family in the future. After discussing with the emperor, they decided to give their surname to Ai Jing, which is called Ai Jing. Those present with us are officially a family. "


    Jing Rong''s tears filled her eyelashes. She quickly bowed down with her son and daughter and knocked her head three times. "Empress dowager, rong''er, will remember your great kindness until she dies..."


    The Empress Dowager raised her hand, "you don''t need such a big gift. The queen often says that women can compare with men and don''t lose ambition when kneeling. The women''s Medical University that the queen is building is a great event that benefits the country, the people and the women. You can''t be lazy. "


    Jing Rong deeply bowed down and said, "I will devote myself to my duty and die..."


    She claims to be an official, which is her commitment to career.


    The Empress Dowager smiled, "please get up. We used to be a family. The emperor and queen worked hard for the people all over the world. If we can do three things, don''t hide and tuck in one. "


    Zhuo Xi also said with a smile, "empress mother, you really talked about my heart!"


    The Empress Dowager remembered this and said, "sister Rong, although you are not my own. The AI family now has no own children. You are all the children of the former Emperor. Now, no matter who you are... If you don''t mind, call me the empress mother like them... The AI family is worth two relatives and grandchildren... "


    Jing Rong couldn''t help it. Her tears had blurred her eyes. "Empress mother..." she trembled, picked up her two-year-old son and led her four-year-old daughter. She hurried to the Empress Dowager and stuffed the child into her arms, "shout to grandma! She is your own grandmother! "


    Xuanze looked at the loving old woman in front of her with big eyes, gently stroked her face with his small hand, and giggled.


    Daughter Xuan Xuan was sensible and obediently shouted "grandma."


    The Empress Dowager held Xuanze and pulled Xuanxuan in one hand, "two little hearts, you have suffered!"


    Xuan Xuan asked again, "are you really our grandmother?"


    Jing Rong kept wiping her tears. "Xuan Er, don''t be rude! She is your own grandmother! "


    Xuan Xuan blinked and asked, "grandma, why didn''t you come to see us before? My grandmother didn''t like us. My mother said, "we still have a grandmother. She is the best grandmother in the world... When we were locked up in a small black house, we dreamed of having a grandmother to save us..."


    The Empress Dowager''s eyes warmed when she heard that Jing Rong was talking about her biological mother, Mrs. Hu... But the experience of the mother and son was too painful... The son didn''t say that her mother was wrong. It can be seen that she was pure in nature to educate her children in this way.


    Jing Rongchuan then said, "Xuan Er can''t talk nonsense. It''s all my mother''s fault. My grandmother didn''t know you two... My mother did something wrong before and didn''t dare to come to my grandmother... "


    Xuan Xuan raised her sleeves and raised her hand to wipe her mother''s tears. "If her mother doesn''t cry, xuan''er will be obedient in the future and will look at her brother well. She won''t make Grandma angry..."


    The Empress Dowager hugged the two children, "sweetheart, you will all live in the palace in the future. No one will bully you!"


    Zhuo Xi saw several people crying together and deliberately interrupted, "empress mother, you have a lot of days to hurt them. If we don''t have dinner now, Xi''er will be hungry... "


    She can be hungry, but the one in her stomach is not good


    The Empress Dowager laughed and said to them, "rong''er, the queen is right. We have a long future. You sit back quickly. I''ve been thinking about preparing a banquet for you a few days ago, but I''m afraid I''ll wrong you in a hurry. That''s the whole monk banquet, so that sister shallow and two little princesses can recognize you. "


    Jing Rong thanked the Empress Dowager for her kindness, gave blessing gifts to the Queens, Mrs. Qin and princess Qianchang on both sides, nodded to the two little princesses, and asked the two children to worship and shout respectively before they were ready to return to their seats.


    Princess Qianchang took out the gift box prepared in her sleeve and asked the maid in charge to send it. "I knew that sister Rong had returned. This is a small meeting gift for my nephew and niece. Don''t dislike sister Rong."


    Jing Rong hurriedly asked the two children to thank Princess Qianchang.


    Zhuo Xi and Mrs. Qin had seen two children in the palace for a long time. They also gave a gift at the first meeting. At this time, they stopped talking.


    Little princess Luo Yuan clapped her hands and said with a smile, "I have another sister and a brother? I thought it was easy to have three more brothers and no sister. Well, I have all my brothers and sisters! "


    You can take out this melon seed from sailing''s pocket After thinking about it, he took out another one and let Xuan Xuan take it with his two hands. "Your brother''s, you also take it for him."


    Xuan Xuan tilted his head and thought, "can you really buy food?"


    Jing Rong was sad again. The two children really suffered in Tao House... She quickly followed her daughter''s hand and said, "thank you, sister Yanling?"


    "Thank you, sister Yanling."


    Luo Yuan came up and put a purse in Xuanxuan''s hand. He turned to Yanling and complained, "sister Yanling, you asked me to bring a purse. As I knew, I brought that box of Nanzhu to my sister to play... "


    "Thank you, sister Luo Yuan." Xuan Xuan said with milk.


    Turning to the last table, Jing Rong took the child and looked at the strange woman. She didn''t know how to call her, and was stunned in situ.


    The Empress Dowager quickly introduced, "this is my mother''s niece, named Liu ningsi. The children just call her Aunt Liu. "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned.


    "It''s sister Liu." Jing Rong blessed her a little.


    Liu ningsi quickly stood up, sidled and gave her a big gift, "I''ve seen Princess Rong..."


    This is putting the cart before the horse. She should have seen the queen first


    Jing Rong suddenly reacted that she had self defeated the Empress Dowager''s plan and quickly asked her son and daughter to see her at will and then returned to her seat.


    Liu ningsi personally came over and gave her a gift. She said softly, "this is a gadget I brought from my hometown. I hope the children don''t dislike it." One is a wooden villain whose joints can be bent into various shapes without moving; One is the butterfly shaped pearl flower with peculiar shape. Jing Rong saw that it was not a particularly valuable object, so he no longer refused.


    The Empress Dowager cleared her voice, "the second thing AI family wants to announce is about Liu ningsi. I came from Youzhou and my parents died. I came to Beijing to go to mourn. The AI family received great kindness from her father when they were young. The kindness of dripping water should be reported by Yongquan. AI family decided to grant Rensi as Qingya Princess and live in Liu''an palace. "


    She gave a sign, and mammy Su came forward and read out the Yizhi.


    Liu ningsi bowed down and kowtowed thanks.


    It''s done at one go.


    Everyone at the scene took a breath of air-conditioning.


    A princess appeared without saying, but she was crowned with her surname


    This is unprecedented respect.


    Although the Empress Dowager''s honor, it''s nothing to be a princess, but even the queen in charge of the six palaces didn''t say anything in advance, and suddenly read out the Yizhi in front of everyone. Zhuo Xi is also a little confused


    She carefully observed the Empress Dowager''s look. Seeing her look as usual, she suppressed her doubts.


    Liu ningsi saluted and knelt down to them one by one.


    Luo Yuan and Princess Yanling are of the same generation. After seeing the ceremony, they exchanged shenggeng with each other. Liu ningsi was one year older than Yanling and Luo Yuan, so Luo Yuan called "Sister Liu." But Yanling was reluctant and said reluctantly, "Princess Qingya really came out of the dust. This title really deserves its name."


    The Empress Dowager laughed, "meditation, go back and sit down. We''re having a dinner! If we don''t have a banquet, some people will be hungry. "


    Zhuo Xi smiled and took the lead in raising the cup. "Melt sister, welcome home." She smelled the cup, which was jasmine tea specially prepared for her by mammy su.


    Jing Rong blinked, then dissipated the tears on her eyelashes, raised her glass and said, "thank you, empress."


    Zhuo Xi raised his glass to Liu ningsi again. "Princess Qingya, Youzhou is thousands of miles away. It''s really hard for you."


    Liu ningsi''s eyelids jumped and raised his cup, "thank you for your love. The little woman does it first."


    Several people gave welcome speeches and toasts to Jing Rong and Liu ningsi respectively.


    After three rounds of wine, Luo Yuan asked curiously, "aunt, grandma said that your women''s Medical University is a great event for the country, the people and the women, but what''s the big event?"


    Zhuo Xi said strangely, "haven''t you heard of the recent recruitment of female officials by neifu among the major honourable officials in Kyoto?"


    Luo Yuan quickly seized the opportunity to sue because her mother didn''t come today. "My mother didn''t let me participate in the selection of female officials. She said it was the Royal daughter of my family this day. There''s no need to work hard..."

 Chapter 305

    Zhuo Xi looked at Jing Qian''s look, and then at Yanling''s look, she understood.


    Jing Qian was a little embarrassed. She had said the same thing to her daughter Princess Yanling, but she couldn''t argue. Just now the Empress Dowager said that if you can give three parts, don''t be stingy. I don''t even think of a part


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "most of the female officials recruited this time are for women''s medical universities. Although female officials have worked harder, there are differences in positions and division of labor. There are female teachers who are about to become professors and female ministers who arrange for female students to attend classes; There are female presidents who are in charge of the affairs of each college, as well as female presidents who are in charge of the work of the whole university... Watching these students from a piece of white paper to be taught into female doctors, female nurses and female pharmacists, isn''t this a sense of achievement better than the hard feeling it brings? "


    What female ministers, female presidents and female principals do not understand. The only thing they understand is the female teacher


    Luo Yuan''s eyes brightened, "female teacher... I don''t know what to teach..."


    Zhuo Xi took a look at Jing Rong.


    Jing Rong restrained her excitement. "Female teachers also vary according to the needs of students, including pharmacology, medicine and science, literate enlightenment, chess, piano, calligraphy and painting..."


    Luo Yuan was eager to try. She had long heard that Jing Rong was about to become a female teacher. She thought that the content she learned from her should be not much different. She always wanted to ask if she could try... How can she miss such a good opportunity now? "Aunt, look at me... Is it..."


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "I think you are a material that can be made!"


    Luo Yuan''s face suddenly became bitter. Can she make it? It means you can only be a student? She really wants to be a female teacher


    Zhuo Xi smiled again when she saw her like this, "the emperor once said, my royal daughter, is there a mediocre? The material that can be made means that it can be used greatly after unified training! "


    Luo Yuan''s eyes brightened, and Zhuo Xi said again, "although Lord Ji presided over the recruitment of female officials and teachers. However, Jing Rong is solely responsible for the training and assessment of teachers before the examination. If you want to be a teacher, don''t ask your aunt, are you qualified? "


    Luo Yuan looked at Jing Rong excitedly.


    Jing Rong looked modest and said, "thank you for your love and trust. The lower officials will uphold the law impartially and do a good job in the written recruitment examination and training... "


    Luo Yuan looked bitter again. "Aunt, do you want a written exam...?"


    Jing Rong said positively, "didn''t you hear me? The emperor said, the daughter of the royal family, is there a mediocre? If you can''t pass the written examination, it will be a disgrace to the royal family... "


    Jing Qian finally smiled, "sister Rong is used to frightening people. Yuan''er, don''t worry about taking the exam! If you can''t pass the exam in terms of your qualifications, I''m afraid this group of female teachers can''t recruit a few people... "


    Luo Yuan said happily, "I''ll sign up with Lord Ji later!"


    Yanling looked at her mother with envy in her eyes.


    Jing Qian also smiled, "ling''er, if you want to go, go together!"


    Yanling was overjoyed and buried himself in dinner.


    After a while, when they were full, they got up and gave a big gift to the empress dowager, "grandma, we''re going to sign up. Please allow us to leave first."


    The Empress Dowager laughed so hard that she couldn''t close her mouth. "Go, go!"


    The crowd soon dispersed and went back.


    Princess Qingya Liu ningsi caught up with Zhuo Xi, and Fu Shen said respectfully, "empress, Qingya has just moved into Liu''an palace. If you don''t understand the rules, please forgive her."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "don''t you understand the rules? This is simple, "she smiled at mother Su who sent them out." please ask aunt Su to send two teaching mothers to guide Princess Qingya. Look at this palace, this rule should be learned seriously. I''m afraid it won''t be finished in three months. "


    Mother Su smiled and said, "what the queen said is very true. The Empress Dowager also mentioned with her maidservant yesterday... She also said that the Empress Dowager should be the master of everything in the harem. Now that the empress has made an order, the slave and maid will invite two nuns to stay in Liu''an palace for three months. "


    Liu ningsi held her hands tightly. She originally claimed to be a title and carried out the Liu''an palace named after her. How can she give the queen a high look? Unexpectedly, she lifted a stone and hit her foot.


    She pressed her anger, clenched her teeth and forced herself to pull out a smile, "Qingya thanked the queen."


    Zhuo Xi turned her head and asked, "mother Su, I don''t know where the Liu''an palace is? Where is it located? "


    Mother Su quickly replied, "yesterday, the Empress Dowager looked through the map of the East and West six palaces, and finally selected the Xuanyou Palace by the lotus pond in the west, which was renamed Liu''an palace."


    Zhuo Xi thought a little, "Xuanyou palace... Ha ha, it''s a good place. It''s Miss Liu who wants to live in peace! "


    She smiled again, set foot on Luan Jia and left Ci''an palace.


    Liu ningsi looked at the back of the empress, and there was an unknown light in her eyes.


    Mother Su also saluted her, "princess, please walk slowly."


    Liu ningsi snorted coldly, shook her sleeves and walked out of the gate of Ci''an palace.


    How do you think about it? I feel that the Queen''s last sentence means something. I can''t help but give an order to the close maid Qiao die behind me, "find a way to check. What happened in the original Xuanyou palace?"


    Qiao die is a close maid brought by Liu ningsi all the way from Youzhou. Only the master''s life is from, and he didn''t ask much. He just nodded.


    Zhuo Xi returned to Ning''an palace, summoned Hua Yan and asked, "what is the origin of Liu ningsi?"


    Hua Yan replied, "it was originally the daughter of the third uncle of the Empress Dowager''s mother''s family. Two days ago, she entered the Ci''an palace with a keepsake and had a secret conversation with the Empress Dowager for two days. Today, the news of the canonization of the princess came out. My subordinates got the news late, so they didn''t report to the master in time. Please forgive me. "


    "Does the emperor know about it?"


    "The emperor also got the news today."


    "Where is Youzhou?"


    "It is the westernmost border town of Yuanbu Liang, bordering on Yuanxu Zou. Now it can be regarded as in the central part of Daliang. The Liu family, the Empress Dowager''s mother''s family, is a well-known local family. "


    "Since Liu ningsi is a well-known family, why did Liu ningsi come alone for thousands of miles?" Such a piece, if it is not to repay with grace, it is another plot


    Hua Yan replied, "my subordinates will explore again. If you have any news, report it to the master."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and let her go.


    Anyway, it''s not urgent. Liu ningsi can''t get out of Liu''an palace for three months. I''m afraid she can''t make any demon e-zi.


    She frowned and thought deeply, and found that her hostility to Liu ningsi was inexplicable... Didn''t she provoke herself first?


    The next day, the Spring Festival Gala came and said that Liu''an palace sent someone to greet him.


    Zhuo Xi sneered, "she''s so arrogant that she asked the palace maid to say hello?"


    The Spring Festival Gala replied, "she said she wanted to learn the rules in Liu''an palace middle school. It was inconvenient to travel, so she asked the maid in waiting to greet her."


    Zhuo Xi could only say, "just let go, this wild girl from Youzhou even asked an to go on her behalf. The teaching time was extended to four months. "


    Didn''t Liu ningsi just want people to know that the queen was detained in the palace for three months in the name of learning rules? In that case, just add another month.


    She has always been the rule in the palace. When did she need to fight with such a person?


    That''s outrageous.


    The Spring Festival Gala went out and came in after a while. "The maid said that Princess Liu asked her to send her a gift for the prince to play with. He also said that the princess wanted to see the prince and send it again. I''m afraid it''s impolite for a long time, so she asked her to send it first. However, I didn''t dare to answer... "


    Zhuo Xi frowned. She wanted to say that she didn''t take all the things she sent, but she thought that she had just given her a humiliation, and then refused the meeting gift she gave her son. She looked a little stingy, so she said, "you take it and give it to mother Wu. If it''s suitable, you''ll stay. If it''s not suitable, you''ll receive the warehouse registration."


    The Spring Festival Gala should go on.


    Xiao yu''er ran from the door.


    He can run steadily now, much better than she learned to walk when she left.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the joy in her heart, picked him up and kissed him on the cheek, "baby, have you had breakfast?"


    After that, Wu''s mother, who came in, smiled and said, "the prince has a good appetite today. He ate a whole bowl of egg soup."


    Zhuo Xi took out a hand and touched his little belly. "Oh, baby, touch your mother. Your belly is round. You''re really full?"


    Xiao yu''er grabbed Zhuo Xi''s hand with his small hand, and suddenly a word came out of his mouth, "mother."


    Zhuo Xi instantly petrified and looked at mother Wu.


    Mother Wu was overjoyed. "Big prince, big prince shouted to you!"


    "Didn''t I hear wrong?" Zhuo Xi was overjoyed and teased Xiao yu''er, "shout another, mother..."


    Xiao yu''er grinned and said, "Mom."


    "Really! Ha ha... Xiao yu''er will call his mother! " Zhuo Xi rushed out with his arms crossed.


    Mother Wu shouted behind, "mother, wait a minute, put on a cloak!"


    It''s still February. It''s cold and chilly.


    She took Xiao yu''er''s cloak, wrapped it outside in a hurry, and rushed straight to Zichen hall.


    Outside the Zichen hall, he bypassed the political discussion hall and drilled into the back bedroom hall. Then let someone call speechless and let him bring a word to Wuhe.


    Soon, Wuhe cat waist from the side door into the political hall, around the back of the Dragon chair, whispered a word in the emperor''s ear.


    Seeing the emperor''s eyebrows and a rare happy look on his face, the people couldn''t help being happy and waiting for the emperor to share the good news with them.


    Who knows the emperor''s thin lips gently opened, "I''ll temporarily discuss this today and retreat from the dynasty."


    Without another word, he got up and left.


    It''s amazing!


    All officials simply looked at the emperor who had fainted with painstaking efforts some time ago. He left his shift magnificently.


    Every face is different.


    It seems to be a happy event. Why is the emperor reluctant to share it with them?


    ¡­¡­


    Several generals of Jianyi stood at the head of the line of generals on the right.


    They didn''t hear the words of the five rivers, but Jian Yiyuan was the head of the dark guard, and the force value was far ahead of all the officials in the temple.


    He looked at the emperor''s back and dug his ears. He couldn''t believe what he had just heard.


    It seems that


    "Your son will call his mother"?!


    Did he hear right?


    It''s amazing!

 Chapter 306

    Jing Yuan rushed to the warm Pavilion of the bedroom hall and saw his own son running happily on the Kang.


    Zhuo Xi stood at the far end, clapped her hands and opened her arms. She saw her son shouting "mother!" He rushed to Zhuo Xi''s arms like a rabbit, and then his little face rubbed against her chest


    Jing Yuan was silent... The joy of just hearing that sentence disappeared at the moment of seeing this scene, replaced by a strong sour taste. Because he found that he wanted to be the rabbit


    Mother Wu saluted the emperor. Zhuo Xi saw him coming, waved and shouted excitedly, "do you hear me? Xiao yu''er called me mother! "


    A black line appeared on Jing Yuan''s forehead. "What''s his mother''s name if he doesn''t call you?"


    "The first person he shouted was me!"


    He said in his heart, "only women and villains are difficult to support. Don''t argue with them... "


    But Zhuo Xi continued to show off, "the Spring Festival Gala, when you go back, you must let chunnuan write it down. I found his first bed wetting, his first long teeth, and the first thing he would fall... He spoke for the first time and shouted to his mother, and I found it! He''s only eight months old! My husband, your son is a genius! "


    She looked at Jing Yuan with big bright eyes.


    Jing Yuan in front is still thinking about what kind of bastard skills she wants to record? The last sentence successfully turned the taste of sour water in his heart into the taste of excitement. He smiled and hugged them, and couldn''t help shouting "baby --"


    The Spring Festival Gala and mother Wu rushed out with other eunuchs.


    Xiao yu''er knew that his father and mother were happy, and saw his father call him, and consciously giggled and stretched out his face to wait for a kiss... Who knows, he didn''t wait for a long time, but saw his father''s kiss turn into his mother''s face


    He couldn''t stand an injustice and immediately began to cry


    Suddenly, I cried to my baby, "who''s so cute?"


    Jing Yuan blinked, "the baby calls you."


    a phrase with a double meaning.


    Zhuo Xi complained, "you are the baby. Your whole family is the baby."


    ¡­¡­


    Sure enough... The whole family are babies


    They turned several big turns in their minds, looked at each other and laughed.


    Xiao yu''er was crying happily. She was frightened by the sudden laughter and stopped crying.


    Then his mother''s kiss and his father''s kiss came from left to right. He immediately opened his toothless mouth and giggled.


    Then they opened their mouths at the same time, "called father emperor" and "called Daddy".


    Jing Yuan looked at her, frowned, and spoke almost at the same time with her. This time, they exchanged words, "call dad" and "call dad emperor".


    They smiled at each other again.


    Unexpectedly, the baby didn''t cooperate at all. He just kept shouting "mother, mother".


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "I''ll bet you that what he learned the second time was his father, not his emperor."


    Jing Yuan was a little slow witted and sank his face. "Did you teach him to say mother instead of mother every day?"


    Zhuo Xi shrugged indifferently, "my son, of course, makes my mother look more close! Didn''t you feel that way when you were a child? "


    Jing Yuan was helpless, "well... Let''s be a family first, and then be the parents and children of the royal family..."


    A civilian family... This is perhaps the most people-friendly generation of royal family


    "Xianggong, are you facing down?" Zhuo Xi was in a good mood and asked in surprise.


    "Today is a temporary holiday. Well, let''s take a ''son will call his mother'' holiday -"


    The five rivers outside the door stumbled. Is that ok?


    Zhuo Xi was elated. "My husband, let''s go shopping!" Since I''m in the light of my son and enjoy the holiday of "my son will call my mother", I''m going to have a date with a family of three, go out to press the road and see a movie... Well, if there is no movie, it''s OK to have a drama


    As soon as they left, they quickly changed their casual clothes and walked out of the palace.


    East city has been bustling.


    Xiao yu''er was like a curious baby, looking around and enjoying it.


    Towards noon, the two discussed to find a restaurant where they could drink tea and watch a play for lunch.


    After entering the restaurant, I found that the private room was full and there was no room left. Zhuo Xi was too lazy to change again, "just sit in the lobby!"


    Anyway, it''s just a meal... Since I''m determined to be close to the people today, I''ll kiss it thoroughly


    The lobby space is bright and the dangerous system is high.


    The five rivers immediately became alert and were about to come forward to oppose.


    Jing Yuan coughed.


    After five rivers froze for a while, he resolutely straightened up and asked the shopkeeper for two empty tables.


    There is an empty table in a corner, and the next table is almost finished.


    So Jing Yuan sat down and Zhuo Xi sat down with Xiao yu''er in her arms.


    Mother Wu went into the back kitchen to stir up the prince''s food.


    The Spring Festival Gala changed the tea cups and bowls and chopsticks brought out by the palace, and the next table was finished and left the table.


    Five rivers sat down at the next table vigilantly, watching the movement around with their eyes like torches.


    Zhuo Xi looked at him as if he were facing a great enemy. She was so happy that she laughed at him for making a mountain out of a molehill.


    Five rivers touch their noses, ignoring the ridicule of the Lord''s mother.


    What happened to the two masters these times was caused by his lack of vigilance. Even if he didn''t eat or drink, he had to stay with the two masters. Therefore, once the two masters leave the palace, he must be the hardest to force.


    The two masters have always said that they would leave as soon as they left the palace. Pitifully, as soon as he left the palace, he had to work hard to keep his hair blowing state until he returned to the palace safely.


    Zhuo Xi smiled for a moment, thought about it, tried to put her son in his arms and said, "I''m going to the official room."


    The five rivers immediately collapsed.


    The Spring Festival Gala got up and went with her.


    Five rivers saw that the emperor made a gesture and listened to a little movement in the dark. They followed up, so they were slightly relieved.


    He was relieved when he saw that the curtain leading to the backyard was lifted and the figure of the mistress appeared from the door.


    Zhuo Xi walked around the crowd towards their corner. Unexpectedly, a fat woman at a table happened to stand up with a wine glass and turn around. Zhuo Xi couldn''t defend herself. She bumped into the fat woman''s arm at her shoulder.


    The fat woman shook her hand and poured a glass of wine on her body.


    Zhuo Xi said casually, "Oh, I''m sorry." Originally, she thought it was no big deal. After that, she continued to move forward.


    The fat woman didn''t want to let her go, so she grabbed her wrist with her backhand.


    Zhuo Xi broke away from her claw as soon as she turned her wrist, and looked at her impatiently.


    The Spring Festival Gala has stopped in front of her.


    The fat woman looked at her empty hand and couldn''t help but be stunned. She didn''t know how the thin and weak woman escaped her strength. She listened to her companion on the table "Shh" and whistled. She became angry and scolded, "what''s the matter with you woman? If you bump into me, just say, "I''m sorry."


    Zhuo Xi petted the wrist that had just been touched by the fat woman, stopped the five rivers that were blowing hair all over the body not far away, opened the spring warmth, and asked, "what do you want?"


    "Do you know how much my clothes cost? This is the latest one from Feiyu zuiyu Yuxuan. I''m afraid I can''t afford to sell you! "


    "Do you mean to pay for your clothes?"


    "Can you afford it? It''s so easy for me to come out and get together with my friends. What''s my face with such a splash? "


    The Spring Festival Gala was so angry that she wanted to go out to theory. Zhuo Xi pulled her back and said with a smile, "I can''t afford it. It doesn''t mean my husband can''t afford it. Well, make an offer and I''ll let my husband compensate you. " After marrying Jing Yuan for so long, she has never had the opportunity to show off her husband to others. It''s true that heaven has eyes. Finally, she has the opportunity to show off


    Wu''s mother had returned to the table of Wuhe. Jing Yuan saw that her chance to appear had come. He stuffed Xiao yu''er into Wu''s mother''s arms and walked to Zhuo Xi in three or two steps. "Aunt, I don''t know how you want to compensate?"


    Big, aunt¡° How can you see that I''m older than you? " Forget it, elder sister. At least it''s such a handsome young man... I''ve grown up a generation, aunt?!


    Jing Yuan lightly replied, "both eyes saw..."


    The crowd roared with laughter.


    The fat woman spilled, "listen, my clothes are fifty-two sets. You''ve made me lose face today. I''ll pay at least ten sets, that''s five hundred Liang!"


    The crowd around took a breath. Ordinary people can live for a month with five Liang silver. The woman said five hundred Liang silver


    Zhuo Xi smiled and said to Jing Yuan, "Xianggong, she said you can''t afford to pay this 500 liang of silver."


    Jing Yuan wanted to solve the problem by force properly. When she asked, she knew she meant something, so she was happy to play with her, and said with a smile, "but even if I have this 500 Liang silver, I don''t want to compensate her..."


    The fat woman looked at them up and down. Seeing that they were dressed in ordinary clothes, she became more and more convinced that they were talking big. She laughed, "do you think if you call a little white face out, I''ll give you a discount? If you have a seed, you can take out five hundred Liang on the spot and show it to my mother! "


    Wuhe and the Spring Festival gala will rush up as soon as their faces change.


    Jing Yuan waved his hand and stopped the five rivers, but said to the Spring Festival Gala, "go and call the shopkeeper of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan and ask her to bring ten sets of the best and most expensive clothes of the season."


    The fat woman was stunned for a moment and secretly said that these two people were really rich and powerful. They didn''t look so low-key as they looked on the surface?


    After the reform of the new currency, 500 taels of silver is not a small amount. Where would anyone carry so much silver with them?


    Jing Yuan sat back with Zhuo Xi in his arms. The fat woman was about to stop talking. Seeing that they just returned to their seats and didn''t want to escape, she said bitterly, "I''m sure you don''t dare to escape!" Just sit down.


    Less than a incense burning time, a group of people crowded into the hotel lobby.


    The first woman, led by the Spring Festival Gala, went to Jingyuan and zhuoxi''s table and bowed deeply, "this master, madam, the maid is the shopkeeper of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan. The maid has brought the ten most precious clothes in our shop. Please appreciate them."


    Someone in the lobby sucked the air conditioner, "it''s really the shopkeeper of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan. I went there the day before yesterday. I know her."

 Chapter 307

    Others whispered, "unexpectedly, the shopkeeper of Yuxuan really made Feiyu drunk and sent clothes..."


    The shopkeeper of Feiyu Zui Yuxuan stooped lower and lower, and introduced one by one, "this one is a new one just released the day before yesterday. The outside material is 2521 cloud gauze in the south of the Yangtze River, lined with good cloud brocade and gold silk embroidery. It costs four hundred and twenty-six dollars, and 360 kitten''s eye stones fall on it, priced at 1382 silver."


    The needles dropped in the lobby, and everyone breathed carefully for fear of missing a word.


    "This one is comparable to the makeup damask made in the imperial palace. It takes the weaver three months to make this cloth alone. The embroiderer has to choose the pattern according to the trend of the makeup flower, which is very time-consuming. The five bat auspicious patterns before and after this use 527 gold thread and cost 862 silver."


    ¡­¡­


    "This is the last one and the lowest one. It''s worth 130 liang of silver. It''s made of Yun Ling brocade and covered with soft smoke. "


    The fat woman was sweating on her forehead with excitement. It was like a big pie falling from the sky


    These ten sets of clothes add up to nearly 5000 Liang... I got it. It''s just to press the bottom of the box as a dowry for my daughter. It''s also enviable


    People also looked envious in their eyes. Do you really want to compensate this rude fat woman?


    The people held their breath and looked at the husband and wife who were eating delicious at the table.


    Jing Yuan did not lift his head, but buried himself in his meal. "Five rivers, go and pay silver. Xi''er, you have to choose and see if there are any you like. Some will stay, and if not, cut them off. "


    Zhuo Xi also didn''t lift her head and buried herself in dinner. "Go to the Spring Festival Gala and twist them for me." Feiyu drunk Yuxuan''s clothes. She can draw hundreds of sets. What are these ten sets? What''s good? Since someone has paid... Er, it''s too extravagant. Do you have wood?


    The audience was silent.


    Fat women are even more petrified.


    Didn''t you agree to compensate her?


    Now, cut, cut?


    In full view of the public, the shopkeeper respectfully presented a pair of scissors to both hands of the Spring Festival Gala, "please do it, be careful not to hurt your hand..."


    Not only do you have to cut off this precious dress without even looking at it, but also remind each other to be careful not to hurt their hands... It''s heinous!


    Spring is very tangled. She is also a little reluctant


    The shopkeeper suddenly recovered, "it''s the slave''s fault! How dare the people around Mrs. Lao do this? "


    With a wave of her hand, the people behind her unfolded their clothes one by one.


    I saw the shopkeeper''s hands cut off, and pieces of expensive clothes worth more than 100 gold turned into rags in bursts of air extraction


    The hearts of the masses are weeping... I can''t bear it


    Only Xiao yu''er saw such a spectacular scene and was so happy that she danced and giggled.


    A lady pressed her chest, "shopkeeper, stop... It hurts..."


    The fat woman was stunned and screamed, "stop, stop! How can you cut the clothes you paid me? "


    Zhuo Xi asked slowly, "we bought these clothes. When did they become your clothes?"


    Really... Very local tyrant... Very wayward feeling


    She looked at her husband, as if she had a feeling of being spoiled


    The fat woman screamed, "what? No compensation? Do you want to default? "


    Jing Yuan slowly raised his noble eyes and said word by word, "let''s compensate. Dare you?"


    A natural pressure suddenly emanated from that corner


    For a moment, all the people sitting couldn''t help but limp and shudder in their seats. All the people standing couldn''t help but soften their legs and kneel down.


    The people were puzzled, and they could have time to tremble and recall the situation just now. Indeed, the fat woman ridiculed the couple that they couldn''t afford to pay for their clothes and wanted to blackmail, but the couple didn''t agree to her unreasonable request.


    I just touched a glass of wine. Besides, the fat woman suddenly stood up. How can I blame the lady for all the responsibility?


    If you open your mouth, you will pay ten times and five hundred taels of silver. What is not blackmail?


    Zhuo Xi hurriedly shunmao, "Xianggong, she''s just a country woman. It''s not worth your anger for her."


    She looked at the fat woman who was shivering on her knees and said kindly, "you all get up first. I did run into you just now. Well, since your clothes are produced by Feiyu Zui Yuxuan, the shopkeeper must be very clear about the valuation. Please ask the shopkeeper to estimate the price for us. We''ll pay you the original price and won''t let you suffer losses. Is that ok? "


    She did not say compensation.


    I''m kidding. How dare someone ask her to compensate?


    No one dares to accept her compensation! I''m not afraid of losing my blessing


    The fat woman dare not say no, and she can''t stand up.


    The shopkeeper woke up from the pressure, climbed over and looked carefully at the clothes on the fat woman.


    After looking at it for a long time, the shopkeeper stood up and bowed to the two, "if you go back to the master and wife, the clothes on this lady seem to be very similar to those produced by Feiyu Zui Yuxuan. In fact, they are highly similar fake clothes, and the materials are very ordinary. Where can they compare with the real Yanluo brocade? According to my maidservant, it''s worth 35 liang of silver... "


    The crowd took another breath.


    The plot turned sharply. Zhuo Xi smiled, "spring is warm. Give the lady five liang of silver as the clothes cleaning fee."


    At this time, the ice breath around Jing Yuan was slowly recovered.


    They looked at the fat woman on the ground with disdain. When they got warm, the fire of gossip began to burn again, "it was only worth three or five Liang..."


    "Wear a fake and dare to talk here..."


    "Yes, five liang of silver can be regarded as a piece of money for her."


    "Too much appetite, isn''t it? If you open your mouth, you''ll lose five hundred Liang... Haven''t you seen money? "


    ¡­¡­


    The shopkeeper saw that she had nothing to do with her. He asked someone to tidy up the rags and go out. He was about to salute and leave.


    Zhuo Xi also smiled. "It''s hard for the shopkeeper. In the Spring Festival Gala, I''ll reward fifty-two more for the shopkeeper."


    Those who make the sound of breathing are petrified directly... However, if you touch your mouth and say a few nice words to please your wife, you will get fifty Liang... Fifty Liang


    The fat woman beat her chest and feet. If such rich masters and ladies didn''t speak ill and say good words to each other first, how could they get more money?


    Finally, in a strange silence, the lobby of the restaurant, which has always been as lively as the Dongshi food market, saw off the strange couple... Oh, no, it should be the three of the family... Although the clothes are ordinary, the men are incomparably handsome, the women are dignified and proud, which is a natural couple


    However, what happened to the man''s instant authority?


    Zhuo Xi went back to the carriage, immediately stretched her long legs and groaned comfortably, "so this is the feeling of spending money like Earth..." it''s so cool, is there wood?


    Xiao yu''er was sleepy after lunch. He almost fell asleep as soon as he put him on the cushion.


    Jing Yuan looked at her with a smile. "Why, I''ve twisted it all, but I''m not willing to do it?"


    "It''s worth thousands of Liang anyway, and it''s ruined..." although it''s nice to slap the fat woman at that moment, but... Although Feiyu Zuoyu Yuxuan is an industry under his own name, the income belongs to Yuyi door after all... It''s a pity to wear those clothes


    Jing Yuan ordered outside, "five rivers, take the jade cicada son."


    Wuhe respectfully came in with a small box.


    Jing Yuan took it and handed it to her. "This is my private keepsake. If you need it, go and get it."


    Zhuo Xi immediately sat up straight, took the box, opened it and found that it was a jade cicada.


    Her heart is full of tears. Is this the legendary unlimited gold card?


    Wow, hahaha, she bypassed Xiao yu''er and climbed to his leg. The dog beat his thigh, "Xianggong, you are so loving today..."


    "Huh?" The man stared at her, and his low voice sounded, "what does the lady mean, there was no love / enough before?"


    Her men shook, picked up the box and rolled back to the other side of the carriage. Her eyes were fierce. "This is mine. Don''t take it back!"


    Jing Yuan carefully moved Xiao yu''er to a position and changed him from lying vertically in the middle to lying horizontally against the carriage wall.


    The next moment, he fished with his long arm, took the little woman in his arms, caressed her abdomen with his big hand, "haven''t you asked Doctor Wu for a safe pulse yet?"


    Her little hand covered the back of his hand, and a happy smile appeared on her face, "wait a minute. I have a hunch that this baby is a daughter... "


    "Huh? You want to be a daughter? "


    "Yes, my daughter is a beautiful princess. I can pet her all the time... And I won''t argue with my brother..."


    What else can the children of the royal family fight for?


    Jing Yuan''s heart softened and said for a long time, "Xi''er, wronged you..."


    She was stunned, "what have you wronged?" No, didn''t she have a good time as a queen?


    "Originally, I just wanted to be an idle Marquis, thinking how I could protect you for the rest of my life... Unexpectedly, things changed. I became the emperor and you became the queen... Not only didn''t follow me around the mountains and rivers, but also worked hard on government affairs day by day and endured possible life risks at any time... Even my children have to worry about their future..."


    She smiled, "if you are an idle Marquis, don''t I host Zhongfu and worry about the future of my children? If the emperor and empress are pressing on it, can we skip classes if we want to, and take a holiday if we want to take a "son will call his mother" holiday? You are so excellent that you can''t avoid being hated by others. Isn''t there no foolproof disaster? Today''s life is also very good. As you said, only by standing at the peak of power can we have maximum freedom. You see, which of the several projects I''m running is not playing very well? "


    "Play?" He looked stunned.


    "Isn''t it? You have the right not to expire! I have so many ideas. If I have to operate everything myself, I won''t be tired to death? Of course, call capable people to do specific things ~ ~ just remember to play... For example, in the women''s Medical University in the future, I''ll give pharmacology courses to those girls when I''m free,... Wait until the men''s Medical University over there starts classes, If you''re angry with me, I''ll also take male anatomy courses for boys... Imagine you as human anatomy to vent your anger, and enjoy their worship to make up for my injured heart... "


    He chuckled, his chest shook, and a kiss gently fell on the top of her hair, "no!"


    Who cares about her going to class?!


    "It''s hard to say... You are so arrogant and charming that I often coax you..."


    That''s because he enjoyed it very much. She coaxed him with the way of "baby asking for kiss"... However, he also wanted to spoil her


    "So, how''s the baby doing today?" He held it for a long time before he came up with this sentence.


    Zhuo Xi looked up in horror, "baby?"


    Why does he look like "asking for praise"?


    There was an unnatural flash on his face. He simply went out at the back, "didn''t you say that our whole family are babies?" Xiao yu''er is a baby, and she also claims to have been a baby... One more, but not many


    Zhuo Xi:


    "Ha ha..." after a moment, she laughed endlessly


    Jing Yuan looked depressed, and the feeling that the cultural gap was insurmountable appeared again.


    After a while, she stopped laughing, raised her backhand and pinched his beautiful face like a jade crown, "baby... Baby is very good today!"


    "No irony?"


    "No irony."


    But the smile on her chest was shocked. Jing Yuan blacked his face and creaked his hands at her sensitive place, "are you still laughing..."


    Zhuo Xi was leaning on his chest. As soon as he turned over, he pressed her under him.


    He stroked her hair on her forehead with one hand and her cheek with the other. His dark eyes looked down at her.


    She blushed on her face and suddenly said seriously, "Xianggong, you are really handsome today!"


    He lowered his head, grabbed her lips, gently pecked and kissed slowly


    Time is quiet and good. May I be safe all my life

    Several people returned to the palace, and Jing Yuan went to the study as usual.


    Zhuo Xi returns to Ning''an palace and asks Wu''s mother to take Xiao yu''er down to bathe and change clothes first.


    She just changed her clothes and came out. The Spring Festival Gala said, "Mrs. Yu is coming."


    She nodded and motioned for Mrs. Yu to come in.


    Mrs. Yu hasn''t seen her for some time since she went to busy Ziran''s marriage with Ji ruomin.


    Mrs. Yu came in to salute and handed over a package of things. "Tell the empress that adult Ziran''s new house has been almost ready. Tomorrow is the day to invite a matchmaker to send a bride price. I''m not a serious elder of adults. It''s not suitable to go with me... There are no women at home to entertain. Lord Ziran asked me to come back first... These are some plums I borrowed from their kitchen at Lord Ziran''s house these two days... Madam, would you like to taste them? "


    Zhuo Xi took it over and felt a faint warmth in her heart.


    Mrs. Yu looked at her expectantly.


    Sure enough, it was kinship, and the care in her bones made her unable to ignore it.


    She opened the silk package and didn''t let anyone test the poison. She twisted one and sent it to the entrance.


    Moderate sour and sweet, especially suitable for nausea.


    She nodded and smiled at Mrs. Yu, "it tastes good. I haven''t eaten such delicious plums in the palace for a long time. "


    She saw Mrs. Yu''s eyes burst with joy.


    She asked casually, "what matchmaker will the man hire tomorrow?"

    Several people returned to the palace, and Jing Yuan went to the study as usual.

    She nodded and smiled at Mrs. Yu, "it tastes good. I haven''t eaten such delicious plums in the palace for a long time. "


    She saw Mrs. Yu''s eyes burst with joy.


    She asked casually, "what matchmaker will the man hire tomorrow?"


    "It''s said that the six cabinet ministers have all gone!"


    Oh, it''s really a good show... But it''s true that the groom is a close Minister of the son of heaven, and the bride is the first female official around the queen... It''s all valuable... No wonder the six cabinet ministers want to sell him face


    "But..." Zhuo Xi said thoughtfully, "although there are no women in the bridegroom''s family, there may be some women from my colleagues to visit the house tomorrow..."


    Mrs. Yu was stunned, "the wedding invitation was not invited..."


    Beijing knows that Zi Ran is an orphan, so that he doesn''t even have a surname. Naturally, the invitations sent to his colleagues are for men, and there is no post for the women''s family members.


    But it''s hard to guarantee that there won''t be any women coming uninvited... After all, the bridegroom and bride have such a background


    Thinking like this, Mrs. Yu couldn''t sit still again. "No, I still have to go back to Lord Ziran''s house today. Maybe tomorrow..."


    Zhuo Xi nodded and said, "madam, you should also pay attention to rest. Don''t be tired."


    Mrs. Yu wet her eyes when she heard the sound... If you don''t say more, she will stand up and salute.


    Zhuo Xi blinked and ordered the Spring Festival Gala, "the set of ox horn combs obtained in the market this morning can be used to show Mrs. Yu?"


    Mrs. Yu hurriedly turned back to thank her, and tears twinkled in her raised eyes.


    The Spring Festival Gala should be, smiling, came forward and took Mrs. Yu''s arm, "madam, please follow me..."


    After a while, the Spring Festival Gala came in with a smile and replied, "Mrs. Yu didn''t look at it. She said it was very useful... She was very happy! Let the maidservant convey her thanks. "


    Zhuo Xi smiles and is happy.


    Chunzao came in. "Liu''an palace sent someone again and said that he didn''t come to greet the empress in person. He felt deeply impolite and sent an object to apologize to the empress."


    Zhuo Xi was not interested at all. "You can take it. You don''t have to come with me. "


    "Yes."


    Her intuition was that Liu ningsi had a problem, but she used the excuse of learning rules to lock her up in Liu''an palace for four months. Won''t there be any demon e children in these four months?


    Two days later, he Qian happily asked for an audience.


    He brought in a few thin things. "Empress, I didn''t live up to my expectations. Finally, I made an object called paper with hemp, grass and tree roots according to the method she said. Madam, please look... "


    Zhuo Xi let spring warm up.


    what is it?


    She wants to print books, so the imaginary paper is not snow-white and bright, but at least it is white and flat, right?


    What the hell is this yellowish, blue and wrinkled thing?


    More than ten years ago, we could still see the cheapest toilet paper on the street. Is it more delicate and brighter than this?


    I can''t bear to look straight at


    He Qian saw that she looked wrong and hurriedly pointed to the bottom one, "madam, we have tested it. There is no problem writing on it with ink. Although the ink is a little dizzy, it only has a little, which does not affect writing and painting... And it is tough and not easy to tear."


    Zhuo Xi took a deep breath and praised him. "It''s really paper, but it''s papyrus. You can make more and use it in the official room."


    If this thing appears in the official house, the cliff is a great progress in history!


    He Qian was deeply hit, "official, official house?"


    Zhuo Xi knew that it was also difficult for him and asked him to repeat the paper making process in detail.


    Zhuo Xi has never seen papermaking technology in modern times, but deduces the manufacturing method according to memory.


    She thought carefully and said, "find a way to develop it again. As far as the palace knows, Shatian straw can be added to the raw materials, and bamboo and wood can also be used, but they must be ground carefully. It is also possible that the most suitable bamboo fiber has not been found for the raw material of paper curtain... The paper curtain must be fine and flat. In addition, white raw materials shall be used as much as possible in the pulp, and bleached several times with sunlight and water... What the palace wants to see is white like window silk, not such green and earthy yellow... Understand? "


    He Qian was sweating profusely and only agreed to go on.


    He thought he could make a big contribution today and win back a game in front of several other ministers in the cabinet


    Unexpectedly, this thing, which has been abandoned for nearly three months and jointly developed by hundreds of craftsmen, is just a stack of straw paper used in the official room in the eyes of the queen?


    How else can I use it in the official room? That can only be used to wipe


    Zhuo Xi helped the amount. The mass and cheap production of paper is the first step in the mass production of drugs... If this step can''t go out, the standardized production of the drug industry can''t be carried out


    A few days ago, I heard that Jianrong and Fengxin went south to visit mountains and waters


    We have to find a way to lure the wind back and preside over the College of Pharmacy


    For several days, Liu''an palace made excuses to send people to deliver things every day. What thanked her mother for assigning to teach her rules, what learned the rules to know her mother''s difficulty, what happened to the birthday of Guanyin Bodhisattva... Etc. Zhuo Xi turned her eyes and wondered if she was confused because her great aunt hadn''t left all the time.


    After such a few days, Zhuo Xi simply didn''t listen. She directly asked someone to throw the things sent by Liu''an palace into the warehouse, and there was no need to report her.


    No matter what her heart is, she should not give her a chance to take advantage of it.


    This day, Wu mother with little Yu son came in.


    After xiaoyu''er got great encouragement after she shouted her mother, she shouted happily "mother" when she saw Zhuo Xi. At the moment, mother Wu came in with him. He leaned out and threw himself at his mother.


    Zhuo Xi quickly stood up, but she didn''t think of it too quickly. She stumbled and almost fell.


    Jing Yuan, who was going to court, jumped suddenly.


    Mother Wu was startled. She knew the suspicious signs on her mother, but she didn''t make a clear statement because she hadn''t been diagnosed by the imperial doctor.


    She put the prince on the Kang carefully before she came to help her mother, "mother, why don''t you ask doctor Wu to ask for a safe pulse?"


    Zhuo Xi thought about it, and the month was estimated to be almost the same. She nodded and called for the Spring Festival Gala to send someone to ask doctor Wu.


    Zhuo Xi played with xiaoyu''er for a while and found that xiaoyu''er''s hand had been holding a black thing tightly.


    When she broke his hand, it was a smooth and shiny little ball.


    When she picked it up, she was startled and let the ball roll to the ground.


    She didn''t know if it was an illusion. At that moment, it was as if she saw the black bead blinking at her like an eye.


    As soon as he loosened his hand, the black bead rolled to the ground.


    Xiao yu''er thought it was his mother playing games with him, giggled and climbed to the ground to pick it up. Unexpectedly, when he was about to pick it up, he kicked one foot forward and kicked the ball into the gap between the Kang and the wall


    At this time, mother Wu brought the imperial doctor over. Zhuo Xi couldn''t care about the ball for a moment. She sat up straight and put her arm on the medicine pillow.


    Mother Wu saw the prince lying on the ground and didn''t know what to say, so she picked him up and put him on the Kang.


    There were colored blocks he came to play with every day on the Kang. He clucked up a red block, and the ball was forgotten by him


    Doctor Wu closed his eyes and examined the pulse carefully. Finally, his face showed a happy face. He knelt down and said, "congratulations to the queen. It''s a happy pulse."


    As expected, Zhuo Xi didn''t have much surprise. He just asked, "today, the palace only feels weak. I don''t know why?"


    Just now it seems that the feeling of powerlessness is heavier


    Strange, it was good before


    Doctor Wu didn''t think much, "pregnant people support two lives in one body. Sometimes there will be a lack of power. My mother is relieved. Maybe she can have a rest and eat some snacks. I''ll go down and write a few more tonic prescriptions now. Please rest assured and keep your baby. "


    He knows the Queen''s medical skills. These little sick women must know well. What else does he have to worry about?


    Mother Wu was very happy. "The old slave sent someone to Zichen palace and Ci''an palace to say something?"


    Zhuo Xi nodded and thought, "go and say it over there in Pingyang Bofu."


    The Wu family handed in a post a few days ago. It was originally about the afternoon of "the son will call his mother''s leave" on that day. As a result, when I came back to the palace, I heard that the Wu family members came and went back again. I didn''t see them... Later, I didn''t have time on my side


    Doctor Wu went down to work out a prescription and didn''t mention it.


    Jing Yuan, who was solemnly looking in the upper court, got the news from this side, so he let out a breath and asked the five rivers to rummage through the boxes and cabinets.


    Since that day, he angrily bought clothes outside the palace. After the beauty smiled, he found that the first meaning of spoiling his wife is to buy and send


    Ning''an palace soon received a large number of tonic herbs from Ci''an palace.


    Mrs. Qin also heard about it and sent some nourishing food.


    It took two hours for Zichen hall to pour what he said, and then two boxes of things were sent from the warehouse.

 Chapter 309

    Ning''an palace soon received a large number of tonic herbs from Ci''an palace.


    Mrs. Qin also heard about it and sent some nourishing food.


    It took two hours for Zichen hall to pour what he said, and then two boxes of things were sent from the warehouse.


    Zhuo Xi was very happy when she saw it. It was all jewelry and some gold and silver ingots


    The spring warmth registered is very speechless... The look of my mother is no different from that upstart


    At night, mother Wu took the eldest prince back to his own room and slept very consciously.


    For this reason, Xiao yu''er cried for a while


    When Jing Yuan came back, Zhuo Xi had finished washing and asked the maid to dry her hair and was leaning on the bed reading.


    "What are you looking at?" He asked as he took off his clothes.


    Zhuo Xi will get out of bed to serve.


    He waved, "you should have a rest. I heard you fainted today?"


    Zhuo Xi leaned back to bed, "I think it''s not dizzy, but it''s too fast to get up. Some blood flow is not smooth."


    Many normal people will.


    She forgot the black bead for a moment. Let someone find it tomorrow and have a closer look.


    He nodded and strode into the bathroom.


    After a while, he came in wiping his wet hair.


    Zhuo Xi took a dry cloth for him as usual. After being stopped by him, she also felt lazy and didn''t want to move, so she continued to lean back to read her story book.


    He wiped his hair and slept on the inside of the bed. He took away the books in her hand and threw them away. He forcibly pulled her into his arms. "If you feel uncomfortable, have more rest. What are you doing reading so many books?"


    "It''s good to see the stories of talented people and beautiful women occasionally." She nestled comfortably in his arms and murmured.


    Jing Yuan doesn''t know why. Her heart has not calmed down since that moment in the morning. Until this time, she still hasn''t calmed down.


    He asked carefully, "are there any other discomfort today?"


    "No..." she raised her eyebrows. How can she emphasize so many times¡° What''s the matter? "


    "I''ve been restless today. I don''t know what''s going to happen..."


    "It must be your daughter protesting that you didn''t accompany me today... She''s been two months and her brain has taken shape!" Zhuo Xi smiled.


    When she was pregnant with xiaoyu''er, she was only angry with him. At the beginning, she didn''t have much chance to share the joy of being pregnant with her baby with him.


    "What did Doctor Wu say?"


    "He''s old-fashioned. What can you expect him to say? Just say, congratulations to the queen. It''s a happy pulse. It''s over."


    "...." Jing Yuan was speechless.


    "By the way, tomorrow is the day when Zi Ran and ruomin get married... I want to watch the ceremony..."


    She didn''t go to Ke min''s wedding day. She didn''t want to miss Ji ruomin''s


    He coagulated his eyebrows and thought carefully, "the auspicious time is at the beginning of Youshi. It''s still early. Let''s go together."


    "Really?"


    "Yes. Tomorrow I will give him a great grace. "


    "Tut tut... No wonder they say that Zi Ran is the first person around you..."


    "Not now." He said faintly.


    "Huh?" She doesn''t understand.


    "Aren''t you the first person around me now?"


    "Ouch, this love talk can''t be prevented..."


    He bowed his head and kissed her, "you empress dowager know..."


    "No? I''ve always been sensitive... "


    His lips moved to the side of her neck, "well, it''s really sensitive..."


    ¡­¡­


    "Hello..."


    Pingyang uncle''s old lady and his wife Liu came into the palace early the next morning to congratulate.


    Zhuo Xi saw the old man smiling and in a good mood. She said gently, "grandma, haven''t seen you for a long time. How are you?"


    The old lady smiled, "it''s good. The whole family is safe, and the children and grandchildren have their own good fortune. There is a bright future. Sun''s daughter-in-law is about to give birth again. What''s wrong with us? "


    Zhuo Xi remembered and felt guilty, "by the way, is sister-in-law about to give birth? Did someone say "when is the expected date of production?"


    The old lady smiled, "just these days. The midwife''s delivery room at home should be arranged. You can rest assured. "


    She complained, "big brother is really busy. He is always busy. When the palace comes back, he doesn''t come to ask an an to say."


    In fact, they didn''t come back for a few days. What she complained about was Wu Xing, but she was beating Mrs. Wu Liu''s face. The women''s family members in the backyard don''t report everything. Instead, it''s their brother''s fault that he didn''t say anything??


    Liu''s face was a little pale, and he knelt down hurriedly. "Madam, forgive me, it''s really... It''s hard to say..." there are too many things happening at home these days


    Zhuo Xi asked Liu to get up and look at the old lady, "but what happened in the mansion recently?"


    Looking at the old lady''s look, it doesn''t look like something bad has happened.


    The old lady smiled and said to Liu, "daughter-in-law, don''t be embarrassed. Don''t hurry to tell her happiness?"


    Liu''s face turned red and he bowed his head and dared not speak.


    The old face of a mother reporting this joy to her daughter is really


    Zhuo Xi looked at the old lady, "is it..."


    The old lady laughed, "yes, thanks to the wonderful hands of Dr. Hong introduced by her mother, although her daughter-in-law is an old son, she may be the legitimate son of our Wu family. What is there to lose face about? "


    Liu murmured, "I don''t know whether it''s a man or a woman... Maybe it''s another girl..."


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it would be nice to have more sisters. How many months has mother been? " Is it better to live than to have no hope at all?


    "Only a little more than a month." Liu Shi was really embarrassed to continue this topic and hurriedly made another remark, "a few days ago, my concubine was going to go into the palace to say hello to my mother. Unexpectedly, something happened in Ruifeng garden. I couldn''t get away for a moment, so I handed a post to my mother. I came that afternoon, but I heard you were out again. So I have to put it off until today. It''s really my fault. "


    Zhuo Xi asked, "it''s the improper arrangement of the palace. Mother said Ruifeng garden? But the residence of the two wives of father Xinna? "


    Liu replied, "exactly. That day, my concubine was dressed according to her taste and waiting for the old lady to come into the palace. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qing''s personal servant girl came and reported that Mrs. Qing accidentally fell in Ruifeng garden and saw blood again. How dare I delay? I immediately sent for a doctor. When I arrived at Ruifeng garden, Mrs. Qing had fainted and there was a pool of blood under her body. When the doctor came, he shook his head and said that the fetus could not be saved. He wrote a prescription to disperse blood and clear silt and left. After Mrs. Qing woke up, she was devastated. I had to comfort Mrs. Qing slowly. She said that someone in Ruifeng garden had hurt her and begged my concubine to investigate the matter thoroughly.


    "My body is also strange. Ruifeng garden is so small. Which path was not swept and swept by servants? How could there be more stones on the steps? Later, when the master came back, he was furious and asked people to check again and again. Only then did he find out that Mrs. Shan asked people to do it. The servant woman who swept gave it because she got Mrs. Shan''s money. She not only sprinkled pebbles on the road, but also the poisonous banquet on the day of the old lady''s birthday. The grievances of my body were cleaned up. "


    Zhuo Xi listened and mended her brain. It must be that Wu Zhilian knew that he had wronged Liu before, and then went back to the house to be gentle, so she was pregnant... Er, but in terms of time, she has been pregnant for more than a month. It must not be this time. They should have cleared up their old grudges years ago? Calculate the days, isn''t it about the same time as yourself?


    However, in any case, he finally achieved his goal of letting Peng''s family go to liberate Liu''s family that day.


    Thinking of this, Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "it''s a great joy for my mother to get what she wants!"


    Liu quickly replied, "congratulations."


    The old lady was happy. "Calculate the time. The second prince and his uncle fell to the ground almost at the same time. Isn''t this a great wedding?"


    Zhuo Xi wanted to say that it might be the big princess. But think about it, Liu wangzi was eager and couldn''t bear to say it.


    After a few more gossip, Mrs. Wu and Liu left.


    Zhuo Xi asked someone to follow them back to the Wu family with a reward to visit Peng, and learned all the things about waiting to give birth. I was relieved when I learned that everything was all right.


    After the lunch break, Zhuo Xi still felt that she was top heavy. After touching her pulse, she felt that it was ok, so she began to dress up according to the requirements of the Spring Festival Gala.


    Although she attended the wedding banquet of Zi Ran and Ji ruomin, she couldn''t make up according to the Queen''s grade. She only combed the headdress of an ordinary life woman and put on the slightly lively purple gold clothes everywhere.


    When she came out, she found that Jing Yuan had also changed into a treasure blue ordinary Lake thick gown waiting for her.


    Before you, they got into a carriage and went to Ziran''s newly built residence.


    At the moment she went out, she suddenly remembered the black bead and hurriedly ordered the Spring Festival Gala, "a black bead played by the Grand Prince two days ago fell into the seam. Find it."


    When they arrived at Zi Ran''s residence, there was already a roar of people.


    If you watch carefully, you will find that people in and out are either rich or expensive.


    It''s a pity that there was a lot of air above the gate, which made the people curious and booed.


    There is only one possibility for a house that cannot hang a plaque, that is, a family that has removed slavery but has not obtained a surname.


    A house needs its owner''s surname.


    How to name the house without a surname?


    The housekeeper standing at the door saw a handsome fenglang man jumping down from the carriage, and then stretched out his hand to pick up a beautiful and dignified noble woman. He was very green, but he still greeted him with a smile, "Sir and madam, you two came to watch the ceremony?" There are too many uninvited people today. They are all colleagues in the master''s court. None of them can offend.


    Similarly, the five rivers disguised as civilians coughed nearby.


    The housekeeper looked at it carefully and was stunned. When he looked at the two noble and talented people in front of him, he was even more troubled. As soon as his legs were soft, he almost knelt down.


    Jing Yuan waved his hand and said faintly, "no gift." His wife went into Ziran''s residence.


    Almost all the people who have been seated in the main hall are Zi Ran''s colleagues. The other three tables are his dark guard''s brothers, but no one knows them. They only claim to be his Jianghu friends.


    Which of these people doesn''t recognize the Emperor today?


    Seeing the emperor and empress coming together, they were all shocked and looked at each other. They didn''t know what to do.


    Those officials who brought their wives secretly rejoiced that they just wanted to make the ladies socialize. No one expected the empress to visit the house in person.

 Chapter 310

    Officials who did not carry their wives were chagrined. It has long been said that the bride and groom have an extraordinary friendship with the empress, but I never thought that the empress would appear here at the same time. Will it be too late to send someone for your wife now?


    In the room of lightning and flint, a man had softened his legs and knelt down, "see the emperor and the queen..."


    Others saw someone take the lead and knelt down one after another, "see the emperor and the queen..."


    Only the Jianghu people from the three tables of dark guards knelt there quietly.


    Zhuo Xi looked helplessly at Jing Yuan.


    Jing Yuan was also quite helpless, "get up. Today there is no distinction between monarchs and ministers, only the friendship of colleagues. "


    The master of ceremonies who presided over the wedding hurriedly walked over with a swing, "emperor, emperor, empress, this way, please..."


    The two were led to the empty main table and sat down.


    But the main hall is full of men and the women are arranged in the backyard.


    Zhuo Xi looked very abrupt when she sat in the hall.


    Gongsun Li was watching, and he didn''t think it was appropriate, but at this time, if she asked the queen to move to the backyard, she couldn''t achieve her purpose of coming to watch the ceremony. After watching the master of ceremonies tangle for a long time, he suddenly came up with a good idea, walked forward to ask for advice and said, "tell the emperor, empress, can you move to the high hall to watch the ceremony? Since the bride and groom have no high hall to worship, how about kneeling down to worship the emperor instead? "


    In this way, it will not appear abrupt, but also enable the empress to watch the ceremony smoothly; Not only won the good reputation of loving the people as a son for the emperor and empress; It can also show the bride and groom a good attitude of respecting the king and treating them as relatives.


    The emcee was overjoyed and looked eagerly at the emperor and empress. This is definitely the most important and brilliant day of his hosting career.


    Jing Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.


    Zi Ran grew up beside him since childhood. He was like a brother. Since the elder brother is like a father and has the friendship between kings and officials, it is also appropriate to receive this worship.


    As soon as they took their seats, they heard a crackling sound of firecrackers outside the door. It turned out that the bridegroom had received the bride in front of the door.


    After a series of procedures such as kicking the sedan chair and crossing the brazier, the groom led the bride to the center of the main hall.


    Zi Ran was surprised to see emperor empress sitting on the high hall seat, but soon changed into a sincere smile.


    Before the master of ceremonies began to announce his kneeling, there was another noise at the door.


    Then a sharp voice shouted, "the decree is coming - please accept it!"


    There was an uproar.


    Zi Ran hurriedly led the bride and turned to the front door of the main hall. Because you want to kneel down to heaven and earth, the incense table in the hospital has been prepared all the time.


    They knelt down in front of the incense table. The housekeeper had led a group of servants to kneel behind.


    The eunuch who came to read out was the disciple of Wuhe. He unfolded the bright yellow imperial edict and read, "to heaven, the emperor said, now there is a cabinet letter and the senior doctor of the health government office, Zi Ran, who is self-restraint and self-respect, has outstanding ability, is diligent and upright, and benefits the people. I am deeply relieved to give him the surname Zhuo, establish a temple as the founder, extend the descendants, and give a plaque. Qin this -- "


    Zi Ran was stunned. He was born as a slave and had no surname or root. The registered residence system of the government is strict. If slaves are divorced from slavery, they will never have surnames if they do not have a surname. Although Zi Ran broke away from slavery with Jing Yuan very early and now has three official lives, he has no surname, and his future children are bound to be ridiculed. Unexpectedly, the Emperor gave him such a big gift bag on his wedding day.


    This is more valuable than any gift.


    Ji ruomin clenched his hand tightly into a fist, and his eyes wept under the red cover. She also knows how glorious it is for the emperor to give a surname. Since she married him as a patriarchal woman, she naturally had to handle such ancestral events. Originally, she was worried that because she didn''t have a surname, how could she take the names of her children in the future? What do you have to do if you want to worship your ancestors? If it''s a son, but if it''s a daughter, a woman who hasn''t received sacrificial education, how can she marry a good family as a religious wife? I didn''t expect such a big event to be solved under a holy decree


    Moreover, outsiders don''t know how she doesn''t know that the Queen''s name is yuan, but she actually prefers to use the word "Zhuo Xi"? Is this Zhuo, Zhuo Xi''s Zhuo?


    When the pillar saw that they were stunned, he coughed and reminded, "is it true that Lord Zhuo was overjoyed and forgot Shane?"


    Everyone in the main hall behind him laughed.


    Zhuo Zi suddenly woke up and kowtowed to the three leaders to thank him.


    He winked at the housekeeper, who quickly put on a red seal and sent the post away.


    The master of ceremonies immediately shouted, "the auspicious hour is coming, bride and groom, kneel down and worship heaven and earth."


    The two stood at the designated position.


    "Bye -"


    "Second bye -"


    "Three obeisances -"


    "Turn around, after two times of worship -"


    Ji ruomin''s heart turned upside down. Did the emperor and empress come too?


    But the emcee shouted solemnly, "Bye -"


    "Second bye -"


    "Three obeisances -"


    Then the husband and wife worship each other and send them to their bridal chamber.


    Zhuo Xi smiled at the pair of wall people in front of her and felt that her life was really perfect


    She looked down and asked, "what do you mean by giving him his surname Zhuo?"


    Her apparent name is Wu Yuan. Since she became the queen, no one dared to mention it again. She once claimed to write Zhuo Xi. It was a waste of time for a woman to choose a word, but at that time, there were princes to protect her, but it was just a name. How can anyone object? But apart from the old people in Hou''s house, few people should know this name... Besides, those who know it think it''s a sign. How can you think that she is a serious child''s surname Zhuo and surname Xi?


    He smiled, "your children are all royal blood, so you can''t have your mother''s surname. I will take this opportunity to let your surname take root in the Daliang imperial dynasty from now on... "


    She was moved for a moment, but she didn''t accept the traditional clan education and didn''t think it was very important... But in this way, it seemed that she had another feeling of relatives... Maybe future generations will rely more on it? Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Why do you want so much?


    She shrugged, stood up and prepared to go back to the backyard to entertain the women''s dependents. Unexpectedly, the moment she got up shook again, and her eyes darkened.


    Jing Yuan''s heart jumped again for no reason and hurriedly helped her.


    She opened her eyes, patted Jingyuan, held her hand, shook her head, turned the screen wall and went back to the hospital.


    Ji ruomin did not sit on the bed like an ordinary bride to chat with the women''s family members who came to accompany her, but walked quickly to the women''s family banquet with her skirt.


    Sure enough, as Zhuo Xi had expected, it was all the wives of Ziran''s colleagues. Mrs. Yu asked them to sit at separate tables.


    Due to the use of the big round table in the palace for several years, people highly recognized the function of the big round table to facilitate gossip games to enhance emotional communication, which made this round table quickly spread to the market. Whether it''s a noble family or a reckless Jianghu, as long as you''re on the table, you''ll be happy. People have high and low, the game can also be divided into high and low. As a result, the advantages of the round table have been widely spread, and the market demand has reached an unprecedented level.


    Zhuo Xi is very happy to see this change caused by her arrival... Especially the transformation of the bathroom in the newly built house... Makes her feel comfortable wherever she goes


    She was sitting at the top of the main table. She was about to raise her glass and make a speech, but she caught a glimpse of a red figure in the side light. She rushed to her and knelt down.


    When she saw that it was the bride, she quickly scolded, "what are you doing?! Get up, it''s a great day for you! "


    Ji ruomin fell to the ground and said, "your great kindness, my servant will never forget. Please accept my servant''s three heads. "


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "this palace is worshipped by people all day. You are rare. Get up. "


    She still banged her head three times.


    Zhuo Xi helped her up. "Well, well, you are the bride today. It''s against the rules to run out like this."


    "The empress can come to watch the ceremony regardless of etiquette and law. The emperor has given such a great kindness. How can the lower official not be excited?" Ji ruomin smiled.


    Zhuo Xi looked at her, "tut Tut, what a beauty... Zi Ran, oh no, Lord Zhuo is blessed..."


    Ji ruomin blushed and blessed Mrs. Yu nearby. "Thank you, Mrs. Yu." She turned to Zhuo Xi again. "Then I''ll go back to my room first... Madam, take your time."


    Zhuo Xi smiled and leaned in her ear and said, "the palace gives you seven days of marriage leave. You should be gentle."


    Ji ruomin stared at her in shame and anger, stamped his feet and hurried away.


    When Zhuo Xi returned, Jing Yuan found something wrong with her.


    She had been told not to drink, but when she got on the carriage, she was dizzy and her face was camel red, as if she were drunk.


    Jing Yuan sniffed her carefully and found that there was no smell of wine and her face changed greatly. I put her pulse on with one hand, but there was nothing different.


    He urged in a cold voice to return to the palace quickly.


    Five rivers asked anxiously outside, "master, but what happened to the master''s mother?"


    Don''t let anything happen


    Jing Yuan did not answer, but held her tightly and whispered her name.


    Sometimes when she was awakened by him, she would whisper, "Xianggong, don''t make a noise. I''m so sleepy... "


    If you move her, her hands and feet will refuse, and then close her eyes and say, "don''t move... It''s annoying..."


    Jing Yuan''s face was heavy. He waved to dark Wei Jianyu and said, "send a letter to Jianrong and ask him to bring Feng''s letter back to the palace."


    The rain was stunned and went away in awe.


    Jianrong has long been separated from the dark guard team and changed its name to Yin Rong... It can make the master threaten with old feelings... That must be a very urgent situation.


    When they arrived at daning''an palace, Doctor Wu was already waiting.


    Jing Yuan took Zhuo Xi into the bedroom and settled it down. Only then did he let Wu Taiyi in and put his handkerchief on his pulse.


    Wu Taiyi frowned for a long time, shook his head and said, "tell the emperor that the empress''s pulse is not different. She should just be asleep..."


    Jing Yuan smashed a cup, "quack! Get out! "


    Doctor Wu went out depressed.


    However, he did not return to his house. He returned to the imperial medical department and discussed the matter with several other imperial doctors.

 Chapter 311

    Jing Yuan looked at her sleeping, and her heart tightened more and more.


    He put his arm through her neck and held her in his arms.


    She is clearly in his arms, but she seems to be leaving him


    He suddenly remembered that when she was just pregnant with xiaoyu''er the year before last, she had slept for more than a month.


    I was afraid that she would disappear, so I took the magic gun with me and took Zisang in one fell swoop. Then I found the zhenhun jade... Although the zhenhun jade was almost self defeating... At least it proved that there would be such a strange artifact in the world


    He remembered the scene when he witnessed Lin Lang and Cui Jiu disappear


    Why did she always forget to ask, did she use any artifact when she came here?


    Is she gone, or is she just temporarily asleep?


    He would rather believe that she was only temporarily asleep... This time, the same as the last time?


    But that time, he clearly remembered that she was angry and worried because she went to Fengyuan and asked Chu Bo about her life experience. She thought Xi''er in her heart was that Xi''er and that they were cousins... But at present, her pulse is as stable as usual, but she just wants to sleep


    What''s going on?


    If it''s the same as last time, will it wake up after sleeping for more than a month?


    At the beginning, she told him that the inner palace had set up female officials according to the division of six functions, but he didn''t expect that in just three years, the whole huge inner palace had established such a perfect system. Clothing, food, housing, etiquette and music are arranged in four time sequence and include everything. Almost all matters in the inner palace can be found in the articles of association.


    No wonder she has been very relaxed in handling government affairs recently. For example, if she can act according to the rules, she just needs to look at it and approve the use of seal.


    The Queen''s golden seal is covered. It''s the same.


    However, as like as two peas, the three words of "the read, the quasi" are exactly the same.


    Jing Yuan became vigilant and looked around and found that there was no vermilion ink on her desk? How did she write these three words?


    He called the Spring Festival Gala, frowned and asked, "where''s the Royal brush vermilion used by my mother?"


    The Spring Festival Gala opened a large locked drawer from a row of large bookcases behind, took out a small box from inside, opened it, put it on the table, and then respectfully withdrew.


    He looked at the two seals lying next to the vermilion ink plate, crying and laughing.


    What a lazy queen who tries every means


    No wonder she said she was "playing"


    He closed the lid of the box. She can trust the people waiting in the palace so much that I think the problem is not in the palace.


    Then there are only people outside the palace.


    He asked again, "please tell me again when you enter the palace recently."


    Besides cabinet minister he Qian, Wu Zhen of Xishan villa, Mrs. Yu who stayed in the palace, Ms. Yu Meng who had returned to Liangzhou a few days ago, Princess Rongchang who had recently returned to the palace, and Mrs. Pingyang who had just come the day before yesterday.


    Excluding he Qian, Wu Zhen and Yu Meng who came to Liangzhou for political affairs, Jing Rong could not be detrimental to her because of the great kindness of the queen. The family members of Pingyang Bo mansion and the queen are both prosperous and lossy, and it is impossible to attack her. There is only Mrs. Yu left.


    He looked cold and listened to the Spring Festival Gala detailing her return that night. "Mrs. Yu came in and replied that it was Lord Ziran. No, everything in Lord Zhuo''s house was ready. Everyone in Ning''an palace dared not go out and sent the emperor out.


    The Spring Festival Gala is full of thoughts.


    The empress had the same long sleep the year before last. She was also pregnant for more than a month... This time, do you still have to sleep for a month before waking up?


    But this unexplained sleep is the most unpredictable


    Who knows what happened?


    Mrs. Yu was confused when she came back. When she saw the queen sleeping, she heard that the queen might not wake up for a long time, and the tears flowed out.


    She stood by her mother''s bed, motionless.


    When it was getting dark, Jing Yuan came back and asked her about the day.


    Mrs. Yu wiped her tears and said, "I was entrusted by my mother to go to Zhuo''s house to help manage adult Zhuo''s wedding. Mrs. Zhuo is a female official of the empress, but her friendship is like a sister. If the empress can entrust such a great event to me, how can I not do my best? The night before I was hired, I thought I hadn''t seen my mother and the prince for some time, so I planned to return to the palace for a night. After all, I''m not a serious family member of Zhuo mansion. How can I go to Ji mansion on the day of next employment? There are no women in Zhuo''s house. I shouldn''t have to stay in Zhuo''s house to entertain, so I took the sour plum made in those days to relieve my boredom to my mother. Unexpectedly, when I came back to the palace, my mother reminded me that although there were no women in Zhuo''s house, there might be Mrs. Zhuo''s colleague to congratulate me. I thought it was the same reason, so I hurried back all night... "


    The more she talked about it, the more frightened she became. The emperor urgently called her to ask questions. Is it because he doubts himself


    She flopped and knelt on the ground, "emperor, you know my life experience... Empress... I have only such a hope for the rest of my life... How can I do something unfavorable to empress..."


    Jing Yuan closed his lips and asked, "I believe in your intentions to your mother. I haven''t asked about you in the palace these days. Now that something has happened to my mother, I naturally have to make a thorough investigation. Don''t be alarmed and tell me. Have you found anything unusual since your mother returned to the palace? "


    Mrs. Yu thought about it carefully and shook her head, "nothing unusual."


    Jing Yuan was silent for a moment. "Go down first."


    Mrs. Yu fell on the ground and kowtowed, "please allow me to stay in the palace and take care of my mother... Now she can''t wake up and has six years of pregnancy... I want to take good care of her... Please allow me..."


    Jing Yuan looks around. The empress of Ning''an palace has eight maids and six eunuchs, including the Spring Festival Gala. Most of them are old people of the original Ziyang palace. They are enough to trust. I''m afraid the old lady can''t do anything special.


    He uttered a word in a low voice, "sure."


    Mrs. Yu burst into tears and kept thanking, "thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace."

 Chapter 312

    Yan ronghuo received an easy to transfer private letter from the dark guard. Seeing the familiar recipient title above, he thought of the scene of bloody struggle with his brothers, and his eyes were hot. Unexpectedly, when I opened the letter, there was only one sentence written on it: please return to Beijing as soon as possible.


    He just wants to curse his mother.


    So he proudly stayed in the South and asked Fengxin to take xiaoyao''er back to Kyoto First.


    Feng Xin entered the palace that night.


    She knew that something must have happened to the Queen''s sister-in-law, otherwise the elder martial brother wouldn''t use the dark guard line to deliver a letter to Yin Rong.


    When she arrived at Ning''an palace, she looked strange after taking a pulse for the queen.


    Indeed, as all the imperial doctors and doctors have diagnosed and treated, the empress''s pulse is not abnormal, but she can''t wake up. It''s really suspicious and thought-provoking.


    Jing Yuan looked at her and couldn''t help feeling disappointed.


    "It''s said that last time she was also a child, she fell asleep for more than a month after she was on the upper body?" Feng Xinning asked him.


    He nodded. "You mean, it''s about children?"


    Feng Xin said solemnly, "it''s possible. Once a woman is pregnant, her constitution will naturally change. Maybe he didn''t wake up. But for the specific reason, I have to take some of her blood and go back and study it. "


    She took out a small porcelain vase, carefully cut her finger with a dagger and dropped a few drops of blood into the porcelain vase.


    She stood up and said to Jing Yuan, "elder martial brother, don''t worry too much. If it''s like last time, she''ll wake up in a month at most."


    Jing Yuan nodded, "younger martial sister, you''ve worked hard. Please stay in the palace these days."


    "Why don''t you arrange a room for me in the side hall of Ning''an palace. I''ll take a look at Xi''er. " She said.


    Jing Yuan ordered the Spring Festival Gala to be held.


    Feng Xin went back to the main hall of Ning''an palace to meet Xiao Yao''er.


    Xiaoyao''er is having fun with xiaoyu''er. The two mothers stare at them nervously for fear that they will fight accidentally. Mrs. Yu also nervously accompanied her.


    Seeing Feng''s letter coming out, Mrs. Yu asked anxiously, "princess, what''s your mother''s condition...?"


    Feng Xin nodded, "it''s OK for the time being, but the reason remains to be found out."


    Mrs. Yu took a deep breath, and her worried face showed no doubt.


    Xiao Yao''er was already able to speak. Seeing his mother coming, he ran fast with short legs. "Mother imperial concubine, how are you? Yao''er is so sleepy that he wants to go back to sleep. "


    At that time, just after Youshi, Fengxin was a little strange, "Why are you sleepy? No nap at noon? " She looked at mammy Yang.


    Mother Yang smiled, "princess, have you forgotten? Prince Yao is not in the carriage with you at noon... "


    Feng Xin nodded. They slept together in the carriage for a long time. Maybe the car was bumpy and the sleep quality was not good.


    When she picked up Xiao Yao''er, she saw that Xiao Yao''er was holding a big round black bead in his hand.


    She pulled the big black bead out of his hand and gave it to mother Wu. "Mother Wu, I think Prince Yu''s plaything fell off. You''d better be careful not to let the child swallow it."


    Mother Wu quickly picked it up. "I couldn''t find it a few days ago. I don''t want to fall here. Thank you so much for finding out! "


    Xiao yu''er saw that her playmate had a mother''s hug and remembered that she had no mother''s hug and kiss for several days. She ran over with short legs, grabbed one of mother Wu''s trouser legs and pointed to the direction of the bedroom hall, "mother, mother..."


    Mother Wu almost shed tears, and the eldest prince knew that he had not seen his mother for several days


    Holding xiaoyao''er, Fengxin followed the Spring Festival Gala to the side hall.


    Mother Wu was sad. After thinking about it, she stuffed the big black bead into her sleeve pocket and picked up the prince and went to the bedroom.


    Xiao yu''er went to the bedroom hall and saw her mother lying in bed. She climbed happily to the bed. If his mother is sleeping, he should also play the game of sleeping.


    Jing Yuanben sat by the bed and saw this scene. His heart was sour and he didn''t stop it.


    Xiao yu''er climbed up to her mother, "mother, mother" shouted twice. He thought her mother would wake up with a smile like before, and then turned around and hugged him. But why didn''t my mother move this time?


    Suspiciously, he poked his mother''s cheek with his little hand and shouted twice, "mother, mother!" Accentuated the tone, as if with an angry tone.


    Still nothing.


    Suspiciously, he turned to look at daddy by the bed. Seeing that Daddy looked cold and didn''t kiss him as usual, his fear suddenly burst out and burst into tears.


    Daddy reached out his big hand and picked him up.


    He cried hard. He preferred his mother''s soft embrace. He didn''t want Daddy. Daddy often threw him to mother Wu. Sometimes he slept in his mother''s arms at night and came back to his house in the morning. In fact, he knew that Daddy must have done it.


    He doesn''t want Daddy.


    He cried and struggled, shouting "mother..."


    But daddy''s hand tied him tightly


    Daddy''s voice sounded softly as never before, "the baby doesn''t cry, the mother just fell asleep... Fell asleep... The baby is good..."


    He suddenly stopped crying, baby? Only his mother would call him that... Daddy always called him "boy" or "smelly boy"?


    The voice in my ear came softly, "if the baby doesn''t make trouble, my mother will wake up... She loves the baby so much that she won''t leave..."


    Holding his arms, he suddenly felt broad and solid. He suddenly opened his mouth, "Daddy."


    Didn''t my mother always teach him to say "Daddy"?


    It''s not that he won''t, he just doesn''t want to.


    He felt that the body of the man holding him was stiff for a moment. Was daddy happy? He raised his hazy tears and shouted, "Daddy?"


    Jing Yuan''s sad face was moved, "smelly boy, call me daddy! Or father, what''s your name, daddy? "


    Start "smelly boy" again! He knows! Xiao Yu''s mouth flattened and began to cry again. Sure enough, daddy is a face changing character like a fan... He doesn''t want him, he still wants his mother


    Who knows, the man turned him in a direction and put him at the head of the bed. He quickly kissed his mother''s face with his arms and legs, and licked her face with saliva. "Mother, daddy, don''t, don''t," Daddy bullied me. Wake up and avenge me


    Jing Yuan said in his heart, "Xi''er, do you hear me? The son will call Daddy... He must be complaining to you... Wake up, wake up and take another ''son will call Daddy leave'' with me... "


    ¡­¡­


    The next day, Feng Xin went to the upper study to find him, "Xi''er didn''t find any toxic substances in her blood. She shouldn''t have been poisoned or poisoned. If it''s just a deep sleep, elder martial brother, do you mind if I give her an injection? "


    Jing Yuan shook his head. "If you are sure, you can try."


    Feng Xin left.


    He continued to consult with the cabinet ministers on political affairs.


    Several Gongsun Li have been stimulated to turn white almost overnight since they saw the thick stack of articles of Association last time.


    The six ministers made every effort to make the lines under their jurisdiction come up with such a constitution. As a result, it can be imagined that without a thousand things to say, the officials at the bottom were even more complaining. Things change a lot. Do you have to list the solutions one by one?


    Gongsun Li wanted to know how the empress made the six parts of the inner palace list the articles of association. Unfortunately, it was said that the empress was sleeping and the emperor was on the verge of collapse. So that he didn''t even dare to mention a word.


    Finally, after two hours, a palace official from Ning''an palace reported that the empress had awakened.


    Jing Yuan stood up, left a word, "discuss it another day", and strode to Ning''an palace.


    Feng Xin stood outside the bedroom hall. Seeing him running, he called "senior brother."


    Jing Yuan was overjoyed. "Is she really awake?"


    Feng Xin looked complicated and hesitated, "wake up... But..."


    Before she finished, he had blown into the bedroom like a gust of wind.


    A figure was leaning against the big bed.


    He strode happily to the bedside, thinking that he would greet her with a spring breeze smile as usual, "Jingyuan, you''re coming!"


    But when he reached the bedside, the people on the bed still lowered their heads and didn''t dare to lift them up.


    His heart sank and he carefully called, "Xi''er?"


    No response.


    He sat by the bed and put his hand on her shoulder, "Xi''er? Are you awake? You know, I''m really scared these days. "


    He could feel the trembling of the people under his palm.


    The man in front of him suddenly raised his head, straightened up and suddenly circled his neck.


    He smiled softly, "what''s the matter, Xi''er? But what''s wrong with you? "


    "Nothing..." her low waxy voice came from his neck.


    His heart was at ease, and Xi''er finally woke up.


    But why does her body still seem to tremble?


    He hugged her hard.


    Instead, she trembled more and more


    He opened her shoulder and looked at her eyebrows carefully.


    She lowered her eyebrows and eyes, and there were two lines of clear tears on her cheeks.


    He wanted to wipe the tears out of his face with his thumb.


    But the moment his hand touched his cheek, she hid back.


    Jing Yuan''s eyes sank slightly and looked at her carefully.


    But she never dared to lift her eyes.


    "What''s the matter? Xi''er, you said, "you and I will never deceive each other."


    She shook her head, still afraid to look at him.


    He sighed, put his palm on her head and rubbed, "are you hungry? You''ve been sleepy for a few days. You must be tired. Lie down and have a rest... I''ll have someone send you something to eat. "


    She lay down obediently and whispered, "I just ate some porridge. I''m not hungry..."


    "Then lie down and have a rest..." he couldn''t help bending over and hugging her and kissing her lips.


    He clearly felt the stiffness under him.


    He left quietly and said softly, "just wake up, just wake up..."


    He withdrew his hand and went out with a gloomy face.

 Chapter 313

    Feng Xin was still standing outside the door, looking at the sky and wondering what he was looking at.


    He asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Feng Xin turned around, "you also found it wrong?"


    "What''s wrong with her?"


    "It''s not right. She knows everyone and everything, but it''s like a strange thing for no reason... "She hesitated and asked him," did you do something sorry for others? Is she unhappy? "


    Jing Yuan knocked on her forehead with a burst of chestnut. "It''s only a few years since I left my senior brother. I''m short of discipline?"


    She touched her forehead, "senior brother! You see, although we haven''t seen each other for several years, we have always been in love since childhood, which is not obvious at all. But Xi''er... Although she slept for a few days and didn''t see me for a few months, she seems to be very polite to me... She has always claimed to be in the palace... I''m really powerless to hear... "


    Jing Yuan thought about his conversation with Xi''er just now, and there was no polite title, but her trembling body was obviously resisting his approach, but why did she rush up and hug herself? It seems to resist and want to approach... What''s going on?


    Feng Xin also said, "I felt it in the Spring Festival Gala. She said that the old lady always liked to talk and laugh with her, but when drinking porridge today, she looked at her eyes as if she was looking at something... She said it might be because she had just woke up and her energy had not recovered..."


    Jing Yuan only asked, "how is her physical condition?"


    "Very good, the pulse is stable and strong, and the fetus is also very good."


    He nodded. "You don''t have to come tonight. Go back."


    "What... You senior brother who forgets his sister!" Feng Xin stamped his feet and ran away.


    He returned to the main hall of Ning''an palace, called the Spring Festival Gala and carefully understood the situation when Zhuo Xi woke up.


    The Spring Festival Gala replied, "at the end of Princess Fengxin''s needle, the empress opened her eyes and was sweating all over. After the princess pulled out the needle, we served the empress to freshen up. Ma''am, I just woke up. The princess asked people to bring porridge, but she was not allowed to drink more. She only drank half a bowl and put it down, saying that she wanted to adapt her stomach. After drinking the porridge, the mother said to put her hair in a bun before going to bed. The maid asked Chunqing to comb her hair and helped her to bed to rest... "


    He listened carefully and finally said, "just wake up, madam. You can wait on me. Take a rest these days. I''ll send someone to say, "don''t let anyone disturb her again."


    "Yes."


    "Did the princess say that the empress may eat again at night?"


    The Spring Festival Gala nodded, "it said that after two hours, you can drink another bowl of porridge."


    Jing Yuan nodded and waved, "go down and prepare."


    The Spring Festival Gala should go here.


    He stood up and called for mother Wu to hold Xiao yu''er.


    Xiao yu''er found that calling the man''s daddy in front of him would give him a very gentle and powerful hug. He was very excited and shouted "Daddy" happily, and his body trembled.


    Jing Yuan smiled and hugged him and whispered to him, "Xiao yu''er, my mother woke up. The baby went to find his mother. "


    Xiao yu''er clapped his hands happily. Baby to kiss. Baby to kiss.


    He went to the door of the bedroom again.


    She just lay down to rest. He shouldn''t disturb her.


    He didn''t go in, but put Xiao yu''er into the threshold of the bedroom hall.


    Xiao yu''er rushed to the bed and shouted "mother, mother, Wuwu" in his mouth. He couldn''t say anything else.


    The person on the bed opened the quilt, sat up and held Xiao yu''er with both hands, "Xiao yu''er! Mother''s good son. "


    The eyes of the man standing outside the door were heavy.


    Xiao yu''er shouted again, "mother, mother!" He wants to kiss. Didn''t my mother like kissing very much before?


    He suddenly thought, mother, if you remove the word mother, isn''t it a kiss?


    He shouted excitedly, "kiss, mother..."


    But my mother just forked her on her chest, neither hugging nor kissing


    He shriveled his mouth and wet his eyes, "Mom..."


    Jing Yuan walked in quickly.


    The figure on the bed was stiff, so he carefully hugged Xiao yu''er into his arms.


    The man''s voice came, "Xiao yu''er, why didn''t you see it? Did you come here?"


    So before enjoying the warmth of her mother''s arms, Xiao yu''er was immediately carried away by another pair of powerful big hands and into another generous and warm chest.


    He burst into tears.


    Daddy is bad, daddy is bad.


    He couldn''t say it, so he had to cry, punch and kick.


    Jingyuan''s wet lips gently said on his white and tender face, "good baby, my mother just woke up and is a little uncomfortable. Shall we let my mother have a lot of rest?"


    The woman lowered her eyes and didn''t speak.


    Xiaoyu''er looked at the man named daddy in surprise. The baby had a kiss


    He nodded contentedly and uh - huh twice.


    Jing Yuan went out with Xiao yu''er in his arms and gave it to Wu''s mother with a heavy look.


    He told her to take good care of her for dinner, and then went to the study to deal with government affairs.


    When he returned to Ning''an palace, it was the end of the time of Hai.


    He cleaned it as usual, and the people on the bed seemed to have fallen asleep long ago.


    He turned over to bed, leaned over and hugged the people inside.


    The woman snorted, as if she had been awakened and gave way to her whole body.


    He followed her and put a hand around her.


    The lower body stiffened.


    He put his hand on the side of her neck, and then slowly tightened his palm bit by bit.


    The woman sensed his murderous intention. The cold infiltrated her limbs and beat his hand hard.


    There was more and more sharp pain in her chest. Just when she thought she was dead, he suddenly released his hand.


    She coughed hard and her mind turned quickly. If it were that person, she would ask him angrily, wouldn''t she?


    So she turned around and asked him.


    But he said first, "where is she?"


    Her whole body was shocked, and she felt a hundred times colder than before. The question in her mouth was blocked in her chest and could not speak.


    The candle in the room did not go out.


    So when she raised her eyes, he took all the streamer in her eyes.


    There is fear, fear, hatred and alienation in the eyes, as if... There is an expectation that can''t distinguish the Tao


    It turned out that she knew that as long as she looked into her eyes, she could immediately recognize that she was not "she"... So since she woke up, she never raised her eyes to face him


    He thought in his study all afternoon and finally figured out the joints.


    The first thing she woke up was not to see him or yu''er... But to remember to toss and comfort herself first... It showed that she was not inexplicably angry with him like last time


    I know everyone, but I am alienated from those who are close to me... I start to put on the airs of the queen... I am afraid of his touch... Think of her origin... There is only one possibility that she is no longer "she"


    Xi''er may have gone


    This possibility frightened him, which was hundreds of times stronger than when he learned that Xi''er fell asleep


    Just when he went to bed, the woman made room for him. And every time Mingming sleeps, Xi''er sleeps outside... This is Xi''er''s habit... That woman can inherit her memory, but she may not be able to abide by her habit


    So just at that moment, he really wanted to kill.


    He even thought maliciously, if she died, could his Xi''er come back?


    But he thought, if Xi''er was not here when she died, her body


    Besides, this body also gave birth to their children


    The last worry let him go.


    Now he sat up and looked at her gloomily.


    The woman in front also sat up, coughed twice, raised her eyes and stared at him. With fear, she sneered, "the emperor knows..."


    "Know what?" He asked knowingly.


    "I know she is a monster, a monster who revives her soul!" Her voice was a little shrill, but she didn''t dare to shout out.


    He sneered, "if she is a monster, what are you?" Isn''t it the same as her?


    She suddenly calmed down, had an incomparable sense of superiority, sipped her hair at her temples and said with a smile, "I am naturally a person, a normal person."


    In the room of lightning and flint, he understood what she was talking about. He grabbed her at her throat, leaned against the wall and said word by word, "what did you do to her?"


    She giggled, "obviously I am the Lord. If I die, she will never come back... "


    He let go of his strength and let her breathe. "Naturally, I won''t kill you, but I have ways to make your life worse than death..."


    She said angrily, "why? Obviously she took my body, but I just came back to continue my life... Why should you punish me? What did I do wrong? "


    "Your fault is that you are not her." She won''t look at me with your strange and scared eyes. In her eyes, there is no husband as wife and monarch as minister. Only all beings are equal... She will be angry, angry and charming, but she won''t be afraid, scared or frightened


    She slowly broke off his fingers. Anger and fear existed at the same time. "If you punish me, you are punishing her."


    He smiled, "no, how can I be willing to punish this body? I will provide you with delicious food and drink, raise your body and the children in your stomach... And then let you stay in the dark cabinet and stay with loneliness all day. If you want to hurt yourself, I''ll tie up your hands and feet... By the way, now that you are pregnant, you''d better fix you on the bed in order not to have an accident... "


    She shivered. If she wanted to spend the rest of her life like this, it would be worse than death... She bit her lower lip, slowly burst into tears in her eyes, suddenly rushed up and hugged him, "brother yuan, you won''t treat me like this, will you? I know you married her because of me... Didn''t you say you would always take care of me when you were a child in the wind garden? "


    Even though she rushed forward and hugged him, she couldn''t stop shaking.


    He closed his eyes and said, "Yuxi, you saved me when I was a child, and I also saved you. Our feelings have long been cleared. "

 Chapter 314

    "No, no! Brother yuan, I''ve always liked you. Now, although you are the emperor, I still like you... I look at everything she has done around you... I know all the words she has said to you. As long as you like, you can treat me as her... I can also dress up as her... Brother yuan, give me a chance and let''s try... "


    His voice amplified a little, and there was also an imperial pressure, "Yuxi, let go!"


    Then her body shook, and the two knuckles around his waist turned white.


    He said, "you see, if you are so afraid of me, you can''t become her."


    She held her hands and overcame her fear. "You are the son of heaven. Who is not afraid when the son of heaven is angry and lies thousands of miles away? I''ll change it slowly... Trust me... "


    He broke her one finger at a time, gently opened his thin lips and said slowly, "or would you rather tell me how you let her come at the beginning? How did you let her go now? "


    She shrank back in horror and retreated into the corner, "emperor, emperor, what do you want to do? Don''t come here... I, I don''t know! "


    He pinched her chin. "If you don''t say it, I''ll find a way to make you disappear and let her come back!"


    She looked at his cruel smile and cried in horror, "why?! Why exchange my soul for hers? What did I do wrong? "


    He smiled, "logically, your soul and body should have disappeared in the former king''s tomb five years ago, shouldn''t they?"


    She hung her eyes powerlessly... Did she have to die from beginning to end?


    Jingyuan said word by word, "if you want to live a good life these days, don''t use your head!"


    Yuxi shivered deeply.


    When the empress woke up, the whole inner palace looked very happy. Both the Empress Dowager and Mrs. Qin sent superior nourishing food. The Empress Dowager even told her to have a good rest and avoid going to Ci''an palace to greet her.


    The palace maids and eunuchs in Ning''an palace were also very happy.


    Although they all thought it was strange for the empress to wake up, with her criminal record of "angrily sealing Ning''an Palace" last year, they all thought it was the empress who made trouble with the emperor again and didn''t speculate more.


    But on the ground that she was not ill, the empress refused all the pleats and all the inner palace pleats. Chunnuan and baiyunshu are responsible for the affairs of the inner palace.


    Ning''an palace became quiet and leisurely.


    Then, miraculously, the Liu ningsi in Liu''an palace resumed her rhythm of looking for various excuses to send someone to send greetings and gifts after the Queen''s sleep stopped for a few days and the second day after the queen woke up.


    As usual, the Spring Festival Gala is ignored, since the female guests who temporarily live in the six palaces should honor their mother and collect things into the warehouse.


    It was just that the emperor bumped into it this day.


    The emperor will not step into Ning''an Palace at this time. But I don''t know why Xiao yu''er has been crying all the time. Even the queen can''t coax her. Mother Wu had to send someone to invite the emperor to come.


    Jing Yuan stepped into Ning''an palace and saw the Spring Festival Gala directing the maids to put things into the Queen''s private library. He asked casually who sent them.


    The Spring Festival Gala respectfully replied, "it''s the one from Liu''an palace."


    Jing Yuanqi said, "which palace is Liu''an palace? Who lives there? "


    The Spring Festival gala will go to the pulse and say, "the niece of the Empress Dowager''s mother''s family, named Liu ningsi, won the love of the empress dowager, and gave the Xuanyou Palace by the lake the name of Liu''an palace, so that Miss Liu can stay temporarily."


    Jing Yuan listened and walked to the main hall without paying attention.


    Into the main hall, I saw Xiaoyu son lying on the bed crying miserably. Mother Wu was helpless.


    He lovingly picked up Xiao yu''er and asked mother Wu what was going on?


    Mother Wu said helplessly, "I don''t know what''s going on. Half an hour ago, the Great Prince wanted to find his mother. The great prince likes to stick to his mother. Before that, the old slave had been worried about her body and didn''t dare to make the great prince too noisy. Today, the empress said she was better and wanted to be close to the prince. The old slave put down the prince and played with his mother. Unexpectedly, after a while, the eldest prince cried loudly. When the old slave ran in, the empress caressed her stomach and looked at the big prince. The old slave quickly took the prince out, but he couldn''t coax him. Now... "


    He also found that as long as he hugged him, kissed him and coaxed him, he could stop crying. Today, however, somehow, he tried his best. Xiao yu''er was crying all the time. He was out of breath.


    Jing Yuan pondered and ordered the Spring Festival Gala, "go and ask doctor Huang."


    Huang Taiyi is an expert in pediatrics. Xiao Yu''s son is afraid of some discomfort.


    He remembered that the woman still occupied Zhuo Xi''s body, and immediately became vigilant and asked mother Wu, "did you let the great prince stay alone with the queen?"


    Mother Wu nodded, suddenly surprised that she had made a mistake, and quickly knelt down, "damn the old slave, I forgot that the Queen''s body was inconvenient..."


    "I don''t blame you. You get up first. " He gave the weeping little yu''er to mother Wu and angrily entered the bedroom.


    When I entered the bedroom, I just saw her standing on the bed and trying to jump to the ground. He rushed up and quickly lit the acupoints around her, making her unable to move.


    He shook his hand and gave her a slap, and her body flew out. He was shocked, flew out to catch her body, and then carefully put it on the bed.


    She giggled. "What? Fight! You fight! It''s best to knock this piece of meat out of my stomach... Anyway, I''m doomed to die... "


    He clenched his fists and his eyes were about to crack. "What did you do to Xiao yu''er?"


    "Hahaha, what did you do? Since I can''t escape the fate of death, I naturally want to pull some people on my back... If you want me to die, I''ll make your life worse than death... "


    He sneered, "originally I wanted you to live more comfortably. It seems that some people have already spared their lives. So... "He suddenly turned to the door and shouted," come on! "


    The Spring Festival Gala ran in and bowed his head to respond, "emperor!"


    "Let Wuhe bring the rope in!"


    Surprised at the Spring Festival Gala, I glanced at the motionless queen on the bed. I don''t know what quarrel they made, but they had to use the rope?


    She dared not delay and trotted out.


    Five rivers came in uneasily with ropes.


    Jing Yuan said, "go and fix her hands and feet on the bed. Don''t let her turn over."


    The Spring Festival Gala flopped down on its knees and cried sadly, "emperor! What did she do wrong?


    Wuhe was also very tangled and asked carefully, "emperor, empress, she... She is pregnant. I''m afraid it''s uncomfortable to tie her like this..."


    Jing Yuan said angrily, "what are you talking about! Do it! "


    Yuxi on the bed laughed, "you can tie me for a while, but you can''t tie me for a lifetime!"


    "Not yet?"


    Wuhe was so excited that she had to come forward and tie her limbs to the edge of the bed, so that she couldn''t move.


    Jing Yuan then ordered Wuhe, "find a eunuch who knows martial arts to watch her, make her acupoints every two hours, and let her turn over to avoid bedsore."


    The five rivers are going to be messy in the wind. I''m afraid my mother will have bedsores. Why should I tie her up like this? Didn''t the empress say that she hates others to control her acupoints? How can the empress forgive the emperor?


    The emperor''s sharp eyes swept over. He quickly bent down and went out to find someone.


    "Let Doctor Wu come again and ask for a safe pulse." Make sure the baby in her belly is safe.


    "Yes." The Spring Festival Gala should be said.


    When Jing Yuan returned to the main hall, doctor Huang was already feeling the pulse for the prince.


    Xiao yu''er was still crying and kicking, which made it very difficult for Huang Taiyi to feel the pulse.


    After a long time, doctor Huang wondered, "the prince''s pulse is fast and powerful. It should be caused by crying. I didn''t find anything strange... Is he hungry?"


    Wu''s mother shook her head, "I just had a meal an hour ago, and I changed it cleanly."


    Doctor Huang stroked Xiao yu''er''s abdomen again, and found no abnormality


    After tossing for a long time, I still haven''t found any problems. And Xiao yu''er was already crying out. She leaned powerlessly against mother Wu and slowly slept in the past


    Doctor Huang was very embarrassed and kowtowed to Jing Yuan. "I''m incompetent. I don''t know what ails the prince..."


    Jing Yuan shouted angrily, "quack! What do I want you to do? "


    He has been watching Xiao yu''er being tortured over and over. He also saw the distressed expression of mother Wu, and his heart was pulled up. This smelly boy... Is really a troublemaker... Your mother doesn''t know where... Can you stop?


    Doctor Huang lay on the ground, sweating.


    Remembering that the woman dared to toss the child in her belly, the green veins on Jing Yuan''s forehead kept jumping, "if you can''t cure the prince''s disease, you will bring your head to see me!" He was rarely so cruel. The violence in his heart rushed out in only two days, destroying his reason beyond recognition.


    Doctor Huang was shaking like chaff.


    Jing Yuan shouted, "why don''t you go and ask other imperial doctors for consultation?"


    Doctor Huang, please step back.


    Mother Wu said painfully, "emperor, the old slave takes the eldest prince back to the Yuyang palace to have a rest."


    Yuyang palace is the bedroom designated by the Empress Dowager for the Grand Prince in the first month.


    Jing Yuan nodded, "don''t let Xiao yu''er see the queen for the time being."


    Mother Wu was a little surprised, but she should still "yes."


    Doctor Wu came back and said that the queen was all right and the fetus in her abdomen was also very good.


    He waved and let him down.


    Then I went back to Zichen palace tired.


    The next morning, he stepped into the bedroom of Yuyang palace.


    Mother Wu is still worried.


    Because Prince Yu woke up in the middle of the night yesterday and was still crying. I couldn''t eat anything, and there was a high fever in the middle of the night. Now I''m tired of crying and fall asleep.


    The Empress Dowager sat beside her, wiping her tears. She was very distressed.


    Jing Yuan saluted the Empress Dowager.


    The Royal doctors of the whole Tai hospital knelt on the ground.


    Huang Taiyi said with a stiff head, "Weichen has prescribed a prescription to reduce the fever. Prince Yu has reduced the fever. It should be better..."


    "Has the reason for the prince''s crying been found?"


    Doctor Huang was still in a cold sweat: "no, no..."


    Jing Yuan was so angry that he kicked it, "get out!"

 Chapter 315

    He looked at the little figure lying on the bed, and his face had been wiped clean. The nose is the sequelae of crying red.


    After looking at Xiao yu''er''s sleeping face for a while, the Empress Dowager stroked his shoulder, "Xiao yu''er''s disease is strange. Don''t worry. You have to recruit famous doctors from the world."


    Jing Yuan nodded.


    Doctor Huang suddenly found a straw, "I''m incompetent. But I can recommend one person, Dr. Hong Quanhong from the health mother and baby center. He is a golden expert in pediatrics. He has countless difficult and miscellaneous diseases in pediatrics. He will be able to solve problems for the emperor. " There are many problems in folk Pediatrics, and Dr. Hong has rich natural experience. Can it be that he, a imperial doctor who is in the deep palace and has only been able to see several royal children in recent years, can catch up with him?


    Jing Yuan roared, "why don''t you go and invite me?" Hong Quan? It seems that he has an impression


    The voice was so loud that even the little yu''er on the bed seemed to be surprised and hummed.


    He felt guilty again


    Smelly boy, if your mother comes back, daddy promises to rob her as little as possible


    The Empress Dowager looked at him carefully and asked, "emperor, what''s wrong?"


    Jing Yuan is very strange. The Empress Dowager has asked him for the second time these days.


    He shook his head. "Why does the mother ask?"


    The Empress Dowager withdrew her hand, "no, nothing. Now something has happened to the queen and the eldest prince. Emperor, you can''t have anything more. "


    Jing Yuan nodded. "Don''t worry, empress mother. I''m the support of their three mothers now. I won''t fall down if I say anything."


    The Empress Dowager nodded, "it''s getting late. AI Jia will go back first. If Xiao yu''er has any improvement, let someone tell AI Jia."


    "Yes."


    He got up, helped the Empress Dowager and sent her all the way to the gate of the palace.


    Yuyang palace is very close to Ci''an palace. The Empress Dowager seems to be worried. She seems to have forgotten that the emperor helped her. She just stared at the road in front of her and said, "Xiao su''er, let''s go back..."


    Mother Su followed, and when she saw it, she came forward to replace her.


    Jing Yuan shook his head at her.


    The Empress Dowager seemed to fall into her own thoughts. After walking for a while, she opened her mouth faintly, "Xiao su''er, is it really the beginning of the counterattack?"


    Mother Su was shocked and immediately came up to hold the empress dowager, "empress dowager, what are you talking about!"


    Jing Yuan looked at mother Su with burning eyes.


    The Empress Dowager was suddenly awakened, looked to the other side and was startled, "emperor, how is it you?"


    Jing Yuan tightened his lips. "Empress mother, what did you just say? What do you mean? Do you know anything? "


    The Empress Dowager looked blankly, "what reverse bite? What did AI Jia just say? "


    Mother Su comforted her, "my mother just turned her back on me. What can I say? The Emperor may have heard wrong. "


    Jing Yuan looked at them and walked a few steps towards the Empress Dowager. He was stunned for a while. Suddenly, he fell on his knees towards the empress dowager, "empress mother!"


    The Empress Dowager turned and was startled. "Yuan''er, what''s the matter with you? Get up! "


    "Mother! You know, Xi''er is the only one in my life! Now she has an accident, and xiaoyu''er has an accident. If the mother knows the reason, please tell her one or two! I can find the solution! Ask the mother to tell her children! "


    The Empress Dowager was surprised, "isn''t the queen awake? You said, "what happened to her?"


    Only Jing Yuan knows about the Queen''s soul exchange.


    Jing Yuan could not explain to the Empress Dowager.


    The Empress Dowager said helplessly, "yuan''er, if the empress mother knows anything, she will tell her everything. At present, Xiao yu''er''s illness is the most important. You don''t have to send mourning home. Go back and have a look at Xiao yu''er. "


    Then she turned and left.


    Jing Yuan knelt stupidly for a long time until Wuhe came to pick him up. He slowly walked back to Yuyang palace.


    Soon Dr. Hong Quan was taken to the Yuyang palace.


    After he saw the gift to the emperor, he felt some emotion in his heart.


    As usual, when he was in the mother and baby hall, he was used to seeing his children come to see a doctor when they were sick. Most of them were mothers with their children. At present, the empress heard that she was unwell. She didn''t think that the emperor was actually looking after the eldest prince himself.


    Jing Yuan waved and motioned him to see Xiao yu''er quickly.


    Xiao yu''er was tired of crying and sleepy, with a small hand at the mercy of others.


    Hong Quan concentrated on touching xiaoyu''er''s pulse and asked Wu''s mother about xiaoyu''er''s crying. Then he asked the emperor for instructions, "the child is speechless and the pain is even worse. Adults, please allow Weichen to undress and check for the prince."


    Jing Yuan asked Wu''s mother to prepare a brazier and put it by the bed before allowing him to do it.


    It''s only February, and it''s still cold.


    After Hong Quanjing cleaned his hands, he slowly untied all the children''s clothes.


    Doctor Huang was shocked.


    Jing Yuan just frowned and didn''t stop it.


    Hong Quan first opened the child''s clothes, carefully observed his abdomen, and gently pressed it for a while. There was no big reaction, so he covered his front with clothes, and then turned him to the left. Unexpectedly, Xiao yu''er cried again.


    Hong Quan quickly put him right and turned to the right.


    The little boy may be very sleepy. After crying, his voice gradually subsided.


    Hong Quan carefully observed his skin. Suddenly, he focused on a small black spot on the outside of his arm and gently touched it with his hand. Sure enough, Xiao yu''er hummed in his sleep.


    He pressed around the black spot with a little force, and Xiao yu''er cried out.


    He carefully stroked other parts with his hand, but there was no big reaction. It seems that this is it


    Finally, Hong Quan wrapped the prince''s body in his clothes, leaving only his arm to the emperor, "please see, the emperor, the reason why the prince is crying is because he is in pain."


    Jing Yuan saw a very small black spot, "this is..."


    Doctor Huang is also inexplicable.


    Mother Wu changed her face.


    She has been in the harem for decades. How can she be strange to such a wound?


    She looked at Hong Quan in horror, "Dr. Hong, is this?"


    Hong Quan nodded. "This is the most hidden and sinister technique, which is penetrated by acupuncture."


    Jing Yuan slapped the handrail, and the handrail cracked.


    She dares to poison Xiao yu''er!


    Mother Wu was even more shocked. Just now, only the queen and the great prince were alone. Was it the Queen''s hand?


    "Well, how is this possible? What''s more, if it was acupuncture, it would be a pain. How could the prince keep crying? "


    Hong Quan didn''t know why, and then said, "according to the grass people, the Grand Prince cried so fiercely that he was afraid that a broken needle would stay in his body..." to be cruel, maybe someone deliberately buried the needle into his arm.


    "What?!" Mother Wu sat down on the ground in surprise.


    Doctor Huang also wiped a cold sweat. Fortunately, he invited Dr. Hong Quan, otherwise his life would have to be explained here


    Jing Yuan bit his teeth tightly and took a deep breath, "then please ask Dr. Hong to return to spring."


    Hong Quan was embarrassed, and his fingers gently stroked the skin around the black spot, "this broken needle will swim in the body with the blood. The grass people can only judge that it should still be an inch near the wound... If it is an adult, it can be taken out by cutting the wound... But the eldest prince is still too small. If he wants to open a knife and take a needle... I''m afraid the grass people are also powerless... "


    Cut the wound... She was an inch away from the wound... Mother Wu was black and almost fainted.


    Jing Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "give it to Princess Fengxin and ask her to come over."


    Mother Wu suddenly came to her senses and asked in surprise, "emperor, does the princess have a way?"


    Jing Yuan nodded, "now, let''s try. Mother Wu, let someone burn two pots of charcoal and put them in the prince''s bedroom. I''ll come as soon as I go. "


    With tears in her eyes, mother Wu dressed the prince, saluted and called the palace maids to order everything.


    Dr. Hong and Dr. Huang also saluted and left.


    Jing Yuan, full of anger, raised his feet and went to the bedroom of Ning''an palace.


    As soon as he went to bed, a eunuch saluted him. "Xiao Feng, see the emperor. Long live the emperor."


    "No gift."


    He stepped forward. Yuxi was tied firmly to the bed and couldn''t move. Her teeth itched, but she couldn''t do anything. She really suffered physically and mentally. He couldn''t think of the torture for the moment. As she said, he really can''t do anything to her body


    The breeze is very tangled. He had participated in the rescue of the empress before, and was ordered by his master. He deeply understood that the empress was the emperor''s heart meat.


    Today, master asked him to come here to take care of the empress. He was confused. At present, this situation makes him completely confused. The emperor looked angry. Did he and the empress even make it to the point of house arrest? The queen is still pregnant. Why on earth?


    He shivered. If he knew such a secret, he would not be killed?


    Must not know.


    He retreated in horror, finally ran out of the door of the bedroom hall, closed the door and stared at him from a distance.


    Jing Yuan''s eyes moved from the closed door to the woman on the bed again, pressed his eyebrows and pressed a little anger.


    The woman closed her eyes as if she were asleep.


    His anger slowly subsided.


    His son fell asleep.


    This is his Xi''er


    He always liked to wake up in the middle of the night and look at her sleeping face.


    For a moment, he walked up to the bed, raised his hand and stroked her cheek.


    Slowly she opened her eyes and looked at him gently. Her eyes were like water, and her thin lips gently opened, "Jing Yuan."


    "Xi''er?" He was surprised. Did she come back?


    "Jing Yuan. It''s me. " She smiled. Just as she was about to do it, she was surprised that she couldn''t move. Anger rose in her eyes, "what''s going on? Who tied me up? "


    It is definitely zhuoxi''s characteristic language.


    Hearing this familiar tone, Jing Yuan was overjoyed, looked at her angry black eyes and explained in a low voice, "Xi''er, you were ill a few days ago. I''m afraid you hurt your daughter in your stomach, so people fixed you here..."


    She was furious, "untie me soon!"


    Jing Yuan''s hand immediately touched her wrist, but the next moment she found her fist clenched tightly.


    As soon as he hooked his lips, he began to slowly untie the rope, "don''t worry, be careful if you hurt your hand..."


    He learned that Suo had been touching for a long time and was a little angry. "Which bastard tied this rope? Can''t be solved for a long time? "


    He leaned over her upper body and untied her at the other wrist.

 Chapter 316

    Sure enough, I felt the stiffness of the atmosphere below. Looking at her forehead, some sweat came out.


    Ecstasy dissipated.


    He then slowly stood up straight, condescending without anger, "it''s fun?"


    Her body shrunk honestly, but her eyes looked at him foolishly, "Jing Yuan, Jing Yuan! Give me a chance. I can treat you like she did to you. She can be disrespectful to you, so can I. She can act as like as two peas for you, and I can do it... I am exactly like her. "


    Just at that moment, how long did she spend simulating and preparing? Didn''t he believe she was her for a moment?


    "As like as two peas," you can''t be her! Do you deserve to be her? "


    She twisted her body angrily, but she couldn''t move because her limbs were fixed. She looked crazy. "Obviously she occupied my body. Why should I give it back to her?"


    He sneered and said, "don''t you understand? You should have been dead five years ago! God wants you to live again these days. Don''t you know to cherish your blessings? "


    "Why? Why do you want me to die? I have to die! "


    "Just because you can poison a two-year-old child! This nature of mind dares to dream of the mother''s world? " Jingyuan cold sound channel.


    "Hahaha, not only him, but also this one in his stomach!" She began to lift her abdomen and slam up and down the bed, "if you want to give her back my body, I''m dead too. Do you think there''s no way for me to tie me? I can go on hunger strike... "


    Jing Yuan came forward and quickly controlled her acupoints. "It''s true that you don''t cry when you don''t see the coffin!"


    "From today on, you will be a living body and wait for her to come back!"


    He opened the door angrily and went out.


    When he went out, he saw the breeze shrinking behind the pillar, called him back and ordered him for a while.


    Xiaofeng only heard sweating


    He has been hiding so far... Can''t he escape being killed in the end?


    Jing Yuan took a few deep breaths and pressed down his anger. Only then did he carefully think about the broken needle on Xiao yu''er.


    Feng Xin has good martial arts, good internal power and knows well the acupoints and meridians of the human body. There should be a way to force the broken needle out.


    He strode to the Yuyang palace of the Grand Prince.


    Mother Wu walked around outside the bedroom.


    The door of the bedroom hall was closed. Seeing the emperor coming, she quickly welcomed him. "Emperor, Princess Fengxin is treating the prince inside. Make it clear that we shall not disturb each other. "


    Jing Yuan nodded and didn''t speak. He stood at the door and waited for a while.


    Mother Wu hesitated and asked, "empress, she..."


    Jing Yuan said in a deep voice, "from today on, the eldest prince is not allowed to leave Yuyang palace for half a step."


    Mother Wu was shocked. What''s the matter?


    He thought for a moment, "if Ci''an palace is sent to find it, it can go. But be careful. "


    Mother Wu nodded tearfully.

    In the dormitory Hall of Ning''an palace, Mrs. Yu is carrying a bowl of ginseng pigeon soup and carefully pushing open the door of the dormitory hall.


    Mrs. Yu took care of the queen every day. When the queen woke up, she was the happiest.


    In particular, she felt that the queen seemed to have an inexplicable sense of closeness to her after she woke up. She took care of her more attentively and made delicious food for her day by day.


    The people in the palace also knew her and knew that she was taking care of her mother''s diet and didn''t stop her.


    But why is the bedroom quiet today?


    She pushed the door in, and the light outside suddenly lit up the bedroom hall.


    When she approached the bed, she found that the queen was tied to the bed in a big shape.


    The food cup in her hand immediately took off and broke to the ground.


    She threw herself on the bed and burst into tears. "What''s the matter with you, madam? How... "


    Mrs. Yu kept her eyes open for a few days


    Mrs. Yu trembled and looked at her incredulously, "you, what did you just call me?"


    Yuxi burst into tears. Her panic and deep despair in recent days made her on the verge of collapse. She couldn''t care about anything else. "Mother, I know that you are my biological mother... I just can''t recognize you..." in fact, what she said before was the truth. When Zhuo Xi was in her body, she didn''t leave, but looked at what she did powerlessly and coldly, Experience what she has experienced with her. About Mrs. Yu''s relationship with herself, she is naturally clear


    Mrs. Yu was full of tears, raised her arms and hugged her, "daughter... My daughter..."


    Yuxi cried for a while, calmed down and said, "mother, I''m very uncomfortable. You untie the rope for me first..."


    Where Mrs. Yu would refuse, she immediately fell down by the bed to untie the rope.


    But the next moment, Yuxi said calmly, "mother, don''t solve it. I was trapped in the acupoints, and I couldn''t move after I solved them. "


    Mrs. Yu was surprised and angry. "Why are you tied up and still trying to control your acupoints? Why did the emperor tie you up? "


    She said with a sneer, "not to keep the meat in her stomach?"


    Mrs. Yu was surprised, "what did you say, madam? Are you... "


    "Since he wants me to die, why should I keep this meat?"


    Mrs. Yu was even more shocked, "why does the emperor want you to die?"


    These days she sees it in her eyes. The emperor wants to send all the world to her. How can he want her to die?


    Yu Xi snorted coldly, "mother, you have all been cheated by her. She''s not me at all! I am the real Yuxi! I am the Lord of this body! "


    Mrs. Yu is confused


    Yuxi said slowly, "five years ago, the first king died. I was going to escape from the palace to find brother yuan. As a result, I was forcibly caught in the palace and stabbed with my fingerprints. I was sent to the tomb as a buried slave. Later, someone killed in the tomb, and I was stabbed... When I was dying, I suddenly remembered a soul gathering pill that Chu Bo had asked me to carry with me since I was a child... I swallowed it... "


    Mrs. Yu asked anxiously, "the soul gathering pill is such a big golden pearl?"


    She compared the shape of a longan with her fist.


    Yuxi couldn''t nod, but said, "yes. But does mother know its origin? "


    Mrs. Yu nodded, "juhun pill can keep a trace of soul... It was put in your swaddling clothes to save your life... Your father was seriously injured in a jade mining accident. On his deathbed, he asked about the whereabouts of this thing... Unexpectedly, it saved your life..."


    Yuxi was a little moved. "Unexpectedly, this thing was left to me by her mother..." she also deprived her father of the opportunity to save her father


    "It''s all life..." Mrs. Yu wiped her tears. "It''s worth it since it saved your life."


    Yu Qian said, "can you survive now, or two..."


    Mrs. Yu became more and more confused. "How...?"


    Yu Xi hated the tunnel, "after I swallowed the juhun pill, I was always floating and weak until another wisp of soul came into my body, turned clouds and rain with my body and deceived the common people... But there was nothing I could do. I hid in a distant corner and watched her act recklessly..." also, I somehow got her brother yuan''s heart, Became the queen of the world


    She can''t imagine the future, once


    Mrs. Yu understood, "you, you mean, the previous one is not you, but another person?"


    No wonder on that day, when the crown prince Ming he died, she said that your daughter was buried with the tomb when Xianwu Wang Hong died three years ago... So what she said at that time was true?


    Yuxi said, "yes."


    "Then why did you...?" Mrs. Yu was in doubt.,


    Yu Xi smiled and looked sad. "In fact, I don''t know what''s going on. Suddenly one day, I seemed to see a black eye... I suddenly had some strength... Then I watched her fall asleep in those two days. I wonder if my chance has come. I''ve been struggling to get out, but I can''t wake up. Until that day, a stabbing pain completely woke me up. "


    Mrs. Yu murmured, "that black eye must be the holy thing left over from my Yu Dynasty, the soul fixing pearl."


    She suddenly grabbed Yuxi''s hand and asked, "do you know where the soul fixing pearl is now?"


    Yu Xi smiled sadly, "how do I know? Since she had not left the Ning''an palace in those days, it must be that this bead should still be in the palace. "


    Mrs. Yu suddenly remembered that on the day when Princess Fengxin first entered the palace, she seemed to see the princess dig out a big black bead from yaoshizi''s palm and give it to mother Wu. Is it that bead?


    Mrs. Yu looked into her eyes and said seriously, "Xier, don''t do anything stupid again. Wait for your mother. She will keep you alive. "


    Then she got up, picked up the scraps and broken bowls on the ground and went out.


    A blue figure slowly turned out in the corner. It was Xiaofeng.


    He was very tangled, but now he is more tangled. It turns out that the empress is... He doesn''t know what''s good. Now he knows the truth. If the emperor knows it, killing her is the only end.


    But what the emperor ordered him to do, he also risked being killed


    After thinking for a long time, he decided to do the job assigned to him by the emperor first


    He went into Ning''an palace, untied the ropes on the empress''s limbs, wrapped the brocade quilt in his arms around her, and then picked it up and went out.


    Yuxi was wrapped in brocade and couldn''t breathe. She shouted, "dog slave, what are you going to do?"?? Where are you taking this palace? "


    After thinking about it, Xiao Feng still stretched out two fingers and controlled her dumb acupoints... Anyway, the emperor said to control the acupoints in her body so that she could not move... If she yelled all the way, wouldn''t everyone know?


    Xiaofeng sent her mother to the remote place the emperor said. Xiaozhou was there waiting for the handover.


    He watched in amazement as Xiao Zhou gently took over her mother''s Brocade quilt and put her in a coffin?


    In the room of lightning and flint, he suddenly remembered what this place was - it was zi''an palace, which was temporarily suspended when the previous emperors died


    It was too late to appreciate the frightened look when the "empress" opened his eyes. He suddenly remembered the secret news he had just heard. Suddenly he understood the emperor''s intention and the meaning of Mrs. Yu''s last sentence.


    Let''s go! Anyway, it''s all death. If he dies to save his mother, I''m sure the master will ask for some grace for his mother and sister outside the palace

 Chapter 317

    He couldn''t wait any longer and went straight to Zichen hall.


    At the door of the upper study, he almost ran straight in and was knocked on his head by the master five rivers. "Skin monkey, I haven''t seen you for a few days. Why is it so rash? Didn''t the emperor let you look at the queen? "


    Xiao Feng was frightened and knelt down as soon as his legs were soft. "Master, if I die, please settle my mother and sister outside the palace for me. Please inform the emperor quickly. I have something important to report. "


    Wuhe looked at him suspiciously, "you dog slave, what else can I do?"


    "Yes, it''s true! About the queen! " Xiao Feng said loudly.


    Upon hearing that it was related to the empress, Wuhe no longer hesitated and quickly walked into the upper study.


    The emperor is summoning the old monk Jingkong in his study.


    On that day, after he figured out the joints, he immediately sent a message to the old monk to Beijing.


    The old monk did not delay. He hurried to the capital on the 6th.


    He told the monk the whole story.


    Old Jingkong and Shang read a Buddha''s name and looked disappointed. "That day I saw that the empress had a good history. I didn''t want to have such great fortune."


    "How to crack it?" Jing Yuan asked.


    "The person who tied the bell needs to untie the bell. Now the soul of the empress has changed. What must be the reason? "


    Jing Yuan shook his head. "The real reason is not clear at present. But the year before last, the queen was also more than one month pregnant and fell into a coma. I woke up more than a month later, and there was no change of soul. "


    "When a woman is pregnant, her own soul power will be reduced when the fetal soul is formed. I think my mother was taken advantage of at this time. I wonder if I can let Lao Na meet his mother? "


    Jing Yuan just remembered that he was so angry that he asked Xiaofeng to move his mother to zi''an palace.


    When he was embarrassed, Wuhe came in and said that Xiaofeng had something important to see the emperor.


    The emperor summoned him without hesitation. "Master Jingkong is not an outsider. It doesn''t matter if you have something to say."


    Xiaofeng trembled and told the emperor the conversation between Mrs. Yu and the empress she heard outside the bedroom of Ning''an palace.


    The headroom monk exclaimed, "are you sure you heard the soul fixing pearl?"


    Xiaofeng nodded definitely.


    Jing Yuan asked, "what is the soul fixing pearl?"


    "It is said that the soul fixing pearl is black like ink, like jade and non jade, like stone and non stone. It is a sacred thing of the Yu family in the previous dynasty and can enhance the soul power. It has always been kept by the grand mage of national protection, so that one day it can be used when the emperor is dying, so as to delay his life and enable the emperor to arrange his future affairs. According to this, when the pregnant soul was formed, the soul power was weak, and there was a soul fixing bead to summon another strand of soul in the mother''s body, so that it could be reborn and awakened, so as to replace it... "


    "Does the master have a way to solve it?" Jing Yuan asked eagerly.


    "The top priority is to find the soul fixing pearl."


    Without saying anything, Jing Yuan took them straight to Ning''an palace.


    After entering Ning''an palace, Jing Yuan asks Xiaofeng to find Mrs. Yu first and send her to the military punishment department.


    When the Spring Festival Gala saw the emperor laboring to find any beads, they carefully asked other palace maids and eunuchs, saying they had never seen them before


    "Even if you dig three feet, you should find the soul fixing beads!"


    Ning''an palace was turned upside down this day.


    Some beads have been found, but master Jingkong has seen them and they are not soul fixing beads.


    Jingyuan asked again, "but who sent things into the warehouse?"


    The Spring Festival Gala hurriedly answered yes, especially over the Liu''an palace. Things are delivered every day.


    So the Spring Festival Gala simply sorted out all the stored things sent by other palaces and presented them.


    He saw everything. From women''s daily handkerchiefs to children''s clothes, from the four treasures of study to ornaments and playthings, there are many.


    He confirmed again and again, "nothing else?"


    The Spring Festival Gala looked up the books in his hand, shook his head and said, No.


    So Jing Yuan asked people to disassemble all the things sent to see if there were any beads hidden inside, and asked people to summon Liu ningsi, who had never been masked.


    It''s said that it''s the Empress Dowager''s niece?


    The Empress Dowager said "eat back"... These things happened recently... Liu ningsi is a person outside the palace... This must have something to do with Liu ningsi!


    While talking, Liu Ning thought. When she saw that the ground was full of things she had sent, her face turned blue and white. Looking at that posture, I simply suspect that the things she sent are scheming against the truth.


    She saw a man with a beautiful face sitting at the head. She knew it must be the emperor. Yingying bowed to the body and made a ceremony, "see the emperor."


    Jing Yuan''s face was heavy and did not beat around the Bush, "where is the soul fixing bead?"


    Liu ningsi was surprised, but she opened her mouth with a faint smile, "what did you say, emperor? How do people know what soul fixing beads? "


    Jing Yuan didn''t answer, just looked at her.


    She turned her eyes and tilted her head. "Soul fixing beads, as the name suggests, are used to fix the soul? If the people''s daughter knows that there is this thing, she will naturally put it on her body day by day to stabilize her soul, how can she be willing to give it away?! Emperor, you don''t know that Liu''an palace was originally called Xuanyou palace. What happened a few years ago? "


    After hearing the Queen''s ridicule that day, she asked her close maid to check. Unexpectedly, she found out that the Xuanyou palace was originally a place where former crown prince Mu Dan often raped and killed maidens... It''s so gloomy and obscene


    She felt unlucky for several days. Although she was still learning the rules of the palace and could not leave Liu''an palace, she made people stare at the situation of Ning''an palace every day. Finally waiting for her chance.


    Seeing that the Emperor didn''t speak, she said, "besides, the people''s daughter has been learning rules in Liu''an palace and hasn''t stepped out of Liu''an palace for half a step. People really don''t know what a soul fixing pearl is. "


    Jing Yuan smiled, "the Empress Dowager has named you princess, but you claim to be a civilian woman. I think it''s the life in the palace that you don''t adapt to? Or disdain the title given to you by the Empress Dowager? "


    Liu ningsi really disdains the title of princess. If she recognizes the title, she has to admit that she is under the jurisdiction of the queen. It''s better to call herself a civilian woman and talk about * *. Hearing this, she was a little frightened. Unexpectedly, she was trampled on by someone in only two rounds. If the crime of disrespect to the Empress Dowager was implemented, her family would suffer a great disaster. She then reluctantly argued, "I haven''t finished learning the rules of the princess''s palace. It''s understandable that I don''t know the rules of the palace."


    Jing Yuan was too lazy to say more to her, "come here, the princess can''t adapt to the life in the palace and is afraid of the evil spirits in Liu''an palace. It''s better to invite the princess to stay in zi''an palace and accompany the queen."


    The breeze blew in and saluted respectfully, "princess, please --"


    Liu ningsi frowned. Although she didn''t know where zi''an palace was, she was right in the heart when she heard that she could be with the empress. Without much words, she got up and followed Xiaofeng.


    She came here for the empress. Now the task is half completed. Naturally, she needs to meet the master.


    After tossing around all afternoon, he found nothing. Jing Yuan was a little impatient, so he asked someone to prepare for a house for the monk.


    Fortunately, Mrs. Yu has been controlled. Liu ningsi has sent out the bead and should not have found it. At the same time, she is also controlled. Then the possibility of another variable is much less.


    After searching for a few days, I still couldn''t find the so-called soul fixing pearl.


    When the five kingdoms were divided, the kingdom of Wuliang inherited the palace of Yu in the former dynasty. Therefore, all the files of the previous dynasty are completely kept in the Daliang palace.


    On the second day, master Jingkong proposed to check the files of the royal family of the previous dynasty to find out the effect of this soul fixing pearl. Jing Yuan naturally wanted it and opened the files of the previous dynasty for him to consult.


    The broken needle on Xiao yu''er''s body makes Feng Xin walk for him every day, and the progress is slow. But the needle no longer stabbed in the muscle, it had entered the blood and walked, and it was not as painful as before. People also looked at the spirit.


    Since Yuxi was sent to zi''an palace, Xiaofeng came back every day to report her situation. Except for the first day when she was terrified, the next few days were calm.


    Liu ningsi was also made in the same way and put in the coffin next to him.


    The two hands could not move and the mouth could not speak. Even the palace maids fed them food and water.


    The quality of life can be imagined.


    As long as Jing Yuan thought that another soul was living in his wife''s body, he couldn''t help but be angry and hate. In order not to hurt his wife''s body due to his anger, only when she fell asleep at night, let Xiaofeng light the sleeping hole and go to have a quiet look and hug.


    Only when she is asleep can he imagine the person in front of him as Xi''er.


    He also specially arranged for the maid in waiting to regularly point her sleeping points every day to help him move his muscles and bones, so as to avoid any sequelae left by the long-term poor blood flow.


    Let her sleep in the coffin, just to make the woman feel terrible and lonely. But he didn''t want to leave any bad consequences for Xi''er.


    Liu ningsi doesn''t have such a good treatment.


    But this is no longer the scope of his consideration.


    On this day, Jing Yuan was so anxious that he left his government affairs and went to Yuyang palace to accompany his son.


    Feng Xin has just finished a journey in the direction of xiaoyu''er''s wrist. She is finishing work and resting. Her face will recover. Seeing Jing Yuan stepping in, he said with a smile, "elder martial brother, I see you haggard a lot, and the dinghun bead hasn''t fallen yet?"


    Jing Yuan shook his head and kissed Xiao yu''er, who was sitting in bed playing with toys, and said, "younger martial sister, it''s hard for you these days."


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "compared with the pain Xiao Yu''s son suffered, I''m nothing."


    Xiao yu''er raised her face and looked at Feng Xin. Did this beautiful aunt just say his name?


    Feng Xin looked at Xiao yu''er, his big black eyes looked at himself, and couldn''t help kissing him on his face, "I''ll let someone take Xiao Yao''er''s brother to play with you."


    Then she got up and went outside the door and ordered mammy yang to bring Xiao Yao''er.


    Xiao yu''er danced happily. He liked this aunt and that brother, too.


    He still remembered that his brother gave her a wooden figure last time. He had to find something to give to his brother.

 Chapter 318

    So he got up and went inside to look for it.


    Feng Xin chatted with Jing Yuan, "elder martial brother, you should also pay attention to your health. Don''t let your sister-in-law collapse before she comes back. "


    Jing Yuan felt that he had entered a dead end, unable to find direction and see a glimmer of hope. He closed his lips tightly and said nothing.


    Xiao Yao''er was soon held by mammy Yang. Xiao yu''er heard her brother''s voice and rushed out from the inside, holding a handful of beads to her brother.


    Mother Wu was holding two cups of food and came in. Seeing this, she quickly smiled and said, "Prince Yu has gone to touch beads in the treasure chest again? He really knows the goods. He knows that the treasure chest is full of good things. He will give it to his brother if he catches it. " The last time I heard Princess Fengxin said to be careful of the entrance, she put away the small beads in the box. Now all the big beads in the treasure box are more than the size of litchi. Children don''t put them in their mouths when playing.


    Jing Yuan looked at the two big pearls given to his brother by Xiao yu''er and said, "Mom, can you bring me the treasure chest?"


    Mother Wu quickly put down her food and went to the inner room to take out the treasure chest.


    Opening the treasure chest, Jing Yuan saw the big black bead at a glance.


    Feng Xin said with a smile, "isn''t this the bead I found in the main hall of Ning''an palace that day?"


    Jing Yuan was shocked. "Do you mean that this bead once appeared in Ning''an palace?"


    Mother Wu quickly replied, "yes, that day, even if Prince Yu played with it in his hands, he took it with him."


    ¡­¡­


    He said sternly, "where did this come from?"


    Wu Ma thought for a moment and said, "it seems that one day, the empress sent someone to turn around and said that it was a gift from the princess to the Grand Prince. The great prince loves these round gadgets now, and the old slave keeps them for him. "


    see light suddenly.


    Jing Yuan immediately got up and went straight to the library. He knew that master headroom must check the reading file there.


    No wonder, no wonder I couldn''t find it before.


    Sending different things every day must be to hide what she really wants to send


    No one would have thought that what she really wanted to send to Xi''er had already been sent to the big prince


    Jing Yuan pressed his eyebrows and couldn''t wait for the Dragon chariot. He directly exercised his lightness skill, flew over the eaves and walls, and found the master clearance.


    Master Jingkong looked at the black bead in the emperor''s palm and sure enough, his face was different.


    He picked up the beads, looked at them carefully, and said with a happy face after a long time, "the legendary soul fixing beads are black paint like ink, like jade and non jade, like stone and non stone. This pearl is not a pearl. It is as dark as ink. It is very likely to be a soul fixing pearl. "


    Jing Yuan was also overjoyed. "Master, since this bead has been found, how can we solve this situation?"


    Master Jingkong shook his head. "I advocate to find this bead first. That''s because if someone with a heart can find it and throw it into the fire, its efficacy will increase a hundred times. The soul that has previously received the soul calming power will greatly increase its soul power, and there is no possibility of being separated from the body... If you keep this bead away from the mother, maybe the soul power of the soul will gradually decline, The empress can come back again. "


    So, it''s wrong to move her away from Ning''an palace?


    Put Yuxi under the coffin just to frighten and torture her. However, if one day I really wake up and see myself lying in the coffin, will I be scared out of my wits??


    He had a moment of regret. But this Yuxi, not only has to toss her body, but also the fetus in her abdomen. He can only keep her from moving. What else can he do?


    Whether Xi''er can wake up and when, these things he really can''t control. He was disgusted.


    He couldn''t help but ponder, "does the master have a way to weaken her soul?"


    Only by weakening her soul as soon as possible could his Xi''er wake up.


    However, Jingkong read a Buddha''s name, "Amitabha, Buddha said that saving one life is better than building a seven level floating Tu. How can a monk do such a evil thing as robbing people''s soul? "


    Jing Yuan was silent, "don''t say Xi''er has made great contributions to the Daliang emperor in recent years, and countless people live. He said that the woman only came back two days, so she stabbed the embroidery needle into the two-year-old child. Such a vicious woman even wants to take Xi''er instead. How can I tolerate it? "


    Clearance sighed, "the queen stopped the outbreak of a great plague in Zihe county. I know it clearly." If such a gorgeous person disappears, it will be a great loss to the throne of Daliang country.


    After a long silence, he said, "I checked the file recently and found that the grand master protector of the former dynasty has a secret skill that can transfer the living soul with the power of the soul fixing bead to the soul fixing bead and raise it with blood..."


    The light of hope shone from Jing Yuan''s eyes.


    Jingkong said, "however, I heard last year that Liu Zhongyuan, the great mage of the former dynasty, had died. Now I don''t know if he has passed on, and where he is... "


    As soon as Jing Yuan thought about it, she figured out that Liu ningsi and Liu Zhongyuan must have a deep relationship. Naturally, her coming this time will not be aimless.


    "But if the soul moves away, Xi''er''s soul......" if she doesn''t come back, will the body die and a body die?


    "If so, the empress hasn''t woken up in three days, and she can also use the secret arts to move the soul back into her body..." it can ensure that the body will survive for a long time... It''s really a sin after clearance said these words and recited several Buddhist names... However, the empress has countless people alive, which may be her good fortune


    Think about the two women lying in the coffin in zi''an palace for several days. Jing Yuan thinks it''s time to go for a meeting.


    He had them moved to another uninhabited palace.


    Liu ningsi''s life is worse than death these days.


    That day, she thought that Xiaofeng took her to see the empress, and she could negotiate with her.


    Who knows, when I got there, I found that it was actually a mourning hall


    However, the layout of the mourning hall seems a little old


    In her heart, she was shocked. Did she die?


    Unexpectedly, she saw the maid in waiting holding the empress sitting in the coffin drinking porridge.


    As a result, he was stunned by a slap before he reacted.


    When I woke up, I found myself lying in a coffin.


    Five days and five nights! Hands can''t move and mouth can''t speak. Eating and drinking Lazar depends on the maid eunuch to help her deal with it. It has no dignity. Since she was a child, she was also held in the palm of her parents and family. How could she have suffered such humiliation? Besides, in the coffin, you can always think of life and death. She was taught by Liu Zhongyuan when she was a child and believed in the theory of ghosts. Rao was bold. He was in the zi''an palace, where there were countless dead, and in the dark coffin. He often heard unknown sounds, and his scalp was numb and terrified. In just five days, she was on the verge of collapse.


    She originally came to Kyoto with the mentality of looking back on death. She thought she was not afraid of death, so she made a heavy promise to the master.


    But there are many punishments in this world, which can make life better than death


    So now when she was wrapped and thrown into a room, she thought she could finally be free, and the light of hope shone in her eyes.


    It was a dark room. In the middle of the room sat a young man. She couldn''t see his features clearly because of the backlight. But she knew that this man was the son of heaven, the son of life and death in the world.


    She was still motionless and speechless.


    Her face was on the ground. Although she couldn''t see the dust, she couldn''t stop the smell at the tip of her nose. It was a moist moisture mixed with dust. This is a palace where no one has lived for a long time. I''m afraid the emperor temporarily borrowed it and cleaned it temporarily. It is conceivable that if the man on the seat brushed his sleeve and left, the palace would be forgotten forever


    Think of yourself lying in a room that nobody cares about... Until


    She almost collapsed again


    So when the man gently brushed and untied the acupoints around her, she turned over and crawled to the man''s feet, tears of Joy came out of her eyes, and her mouth was a hoarse voice, "emperor, emperor, spare your life..."


    No, it should be to spare her life... Otherwise, it''s OK to give her a good time


    Jing Yuan said, "who is Liu Zhongyuan?"


    She trembled all over. Sure enough, he found out... Whether to live or die, abide by master''s last order, or violate it?


    He said again in a low voice, "I already know that Liu Zhongyuan has a secret skill, which can lead the ghost on the empress into the soul fixing pearl and raise it with blood... I just ask you, do you understand this secret skill?"


    Liu ningsi suddenly looked up, "lonely ghost? Mingming... "Now the soul is the Lord


    At the next moment, her voice couldn''t be heard again... She couldn''t be more familiar with the feeling that the dumb acupoint was controlled


    The emperor''s low voice brought a ray of Su Sha, "if you can control this secret skill and lead out the lonely soul for me, nod; If you don''t want to, I won''t force it. There are more than ten ways in the imperial palace to make your life worse than death! " His patience was exhausted and he had no time to talk to her again.


    As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he can''t wait for a moment


    Liu thought like falling into an ice cave.


    All the chips she had prepared in her hands had no chance to use


    The man''s deep eyes came to her with endless pressure, and she was almost about to nod


    But then the door slammed and was opened.


    The Empress Dowager came in.


    Jing Yuan got up, saluted her and asked, "mother, why are you here?"


    The Empress Dowager glared and said, "if you don''t come, the emperor will do something against the way of heaven!"


    He raised his eyes, "what does the mother say? What is a violation of heaven? "


    The Empress Dowager shook her sleeves. "Isn''t it against heaven that you want the living to make way for the dead?"


    This sentence is like a knife in his heart, "empress mother, you have seen Xi''er''s character in recent years. Not to mention her mental dexterity and good at medicine, she lifted the danger of epidemic diseases several times, and countless people lived. There was no credit but pain. What she has to do now is about to benefit more than 70% of our Daliang people and benefit future generations or even dozens of generations. Isn''t this the peace and prosperity that the Empress Dowager hopes to see? "

 Chapter 319

    The Empress Dowager looked cold and solemn. "Ai family knew she was not a mortal, but I didn''t know she was a lonely soul who didn''t know where she came from. It''s wrong for the Hatoyama to occupy the magpie''s nest. Now things are back on track. Why does the emperor insist on doing his own way and ignore the way of heaven? "


    "What is the way of heaven?"?? If there were no Xi''er, once the black death in Zihe County spread in the first month of this year, the whole Daliang would be destroyed. What should the people do? Is this the so-called way of heaven? If there were no Xi''er, the scuffle among the five countries would spread for decades, countless soldiers would be killed and injured, and the people in the border cities would be miserable. Is this the so-called way of heaven? "


    Liu ningsi''s body shook.


    Didn''t Shifu say that she will bring disaster to the country and the people and change her destiny without authorization. She will certainly bite her back and involve the people close to her?


    And the inexplicable monogamy and women''s recruitment order are not destroying the harmony of yin and Yang and the number of great cool Qi?


    The Empress Dowager was also deep in thought. It seemed that she was thinking about the changes brought about by Xi''er''s emergence, but no matter how much benefits it could bring, it could not compare with her good grandson... "The emperor was confused. If he disobeyed the way of heaven and changed his destiny without authorization, he would bite back on those close to him. Isn''t it a good proof that Xiao Yu''s son is ill? If one day, it will bite back on the emperor,... "


    Before she finished, Jing Yuan interrupted her, "Xiao yu''er''s disease is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. It is the Lord in your eyes who personally stuffed the embroidery needle into Xiao yu''er''s arm! She also tried to destroy the bones and flesh in her belly! If you really want to bite back, bite back on me! I''m not afraid of the reincarnation of heaven! If there are really five thunders and thunder splitting, let me bear it alone! "


    The Empress Dowager was shocked, and Liu ningsi was also shocked.


    Yuxi next door was also shocked.


    The Empress Dowager sat down on the chair, "Why are you? Why do you want to be so infatuated with your father and Emperor... It is a sin against heaven to leave your soul alive! "


    "No, Yuxi''s soul was saved by taking juhun pill that day. Now it''s also the effect of soul fixing beads to wake up... I''m not killing people, but for this body, Looking for a more suitable soul... "Jing Yuan said with difficulty... Asking him to admit that his beloved is only a wisp of soul... Really, all fear and heartache can''t be hidden


    He put a blood eating smile on his mouth, "but these are not important. As long as Xi''er can live, don''t say capturing the living soul is to let me kill and generate demons, I don''t hesitate!"


    Yuxi lying in bed was cold.


    She shouldn''t have come back at all. No, she shouldn''t have taken juhun pill at the beginning.


    You shouldn''t have been nostalgic for this body


    Jing Yuan sighed slowly, and his tone slowed down, "besides, Xi''er is still pregnant with my child. Mother, don''t you want to see this child born? "


    The Empress Dowager was silent.


    The tangle that had always existed in her heart reappeared.


    Jing Yuan said again, "I was afraid you were worried. When you asked mammy Su to ask questions in Yuyang palace, I didn''t ask them to tell you the truth. The fact is that the embroidery needle on xiaoyu''er''s body has flowed into his body with the blood. Fengxin needs to carry out work and needle for him every day. Every moment, xiaoyu''er will bear a sharp pain. I don''t know how long Xiao Yu''s son will bear such a day. "


    The Empress Dowager leaned weakly on the back of the chair and clenched the armrest with both hands. My little yu''er, is this really the pain caused by man-made disasters??


    ... Xi''er''s kindness to her, to all the people in the whole palace, and to the people all over the world, all weighed heavily on her heart.


    Instead of leaving such a good her, should we keep the poisonous woman who secretly murdered the Dragon son and Phoenix grandson?


    That''s just a possibility


    What could be more serious than this visible scourge?


    What''s more, she can''t turn back now


    She sighed heavily, wiped away a little moisture from the corners of her eyes, got up and said, "I''d better go and see my good grandson. Xiao yu''er suffered... "


    "Mother, walk slowly."


    Jing Yuan took a breath and turned to Liu ningsi, "Miss Liu, have you decided on that question just now?"


    Not that she has an answer, but that she has made a decision? Is he sure he will know the secret?


    Liu ningsi struggled and finally nodded slowly.


    With such firmness and determination, which man in the world can compare?


    Jing Yuan was relieved and called out, "come here."


    The breeze ran in.


    Jing Yuan brushed his hand and untied the dumb acupoint for Liu ningsi. "If you have anything to prepare, just tell him."


    Liu ningsi nodded and coughed twice before slowly saying, "other objects are easy, but they are the same, but they are not easy to get."


    Jing Yuan frowned, "what?"


    "This secret skill needs the painstaking efforts of the people of Zhiyang who are willing to offer it... At the end of the day, the people of Zhiyang are no more than the ninth five year old... Emperor, would you like," she licked her lower lip and smiled unkindly, "would you like to exchange life for life?"


    Jing Yuan glanced at the door and was very glad that the Empress Dowager took one step first, otherwise there would be waves.


    "After transferring the soul to the fixed soul pearl, you need to be supported by the blood of the soul''s close relatives, which can be replaced every month. Can you do it?"


    It''s not difficult. Mrs. Yu is


    Jing Yuan nodded without hesitation, "then please start, what do you need to prepare?"


    Xiaofeng is completely confused


    Emperor, is this to exchange life for life?


    So how?


    How can the queen live when she wakes up and knows?


    The emperor seemed to know what he was thinking and said in a deep voice, "Xiaofeng, you can''t tell anyone about it."


    The breeze flopped down and knelt on the ground, shivering, "emperor, never!"


    "Don''t say much!" Jingyuan cold sound back.


    Liu ningsi slowly told Xiaofeng what he needed to prepare.


    Xiaofeng staggered out of the door


    It''s all for this


    I''ve been killed 800 times


    What should I do?


    Would you like to inform the master?


    He hurried to Zichen palace.


    Wuhe didn''t know that the empress had been changed, but he knew that something had happened to the empress.


    When Xiaofeng found him, he was so frightened that he immediately fell to the ground.


    The Empress Dowager has just left. Obviously, she can''t stop the emperor.


    At present, the only thing that can stop the emperor is Princess Fengxin, the hyacinth childe with excellent martial arts and medical skills!


    The emperor''s martial arts are outstanding. If he joins hands with Fengxin childe, it is still possible to control the Emperor


    He flew up and left a word, "slow down and prepare those things! Try to procrastinate! "


    The breeze is paralyzed on the ground and hasn''t recovered


    When Wuhe flew into the side hall where Princess Fengxin lived temporarily, he was almost beaten out by Fengxin.


    "In the Imperial Palace, where did you come from?"


    The five rivers hurriedly said, "princess, help! The emperor is in danger! "


    Feng Xin stopped, "what''s the matter with the emperor? Come in and talk. "


    Five rivers told the emperor about his decision to exchange life for life.


    Feng Xin looked dignified. After explaining that mammy Yang was optimistic about Xiao Yao''er, she ran with the five rivers to the temporary palace next to zi''an palace.


    According to Liu ningsi''s words, Jing Yuan returned to Ning''an palace to freshen up before returning here.


    People sent the "empress" to this big palace.


    When he arrived, he found Xiaofeng standing furtively at the door, afraid to go in.


    He kicked, "the princess asked you to prepare something. Why don''t you go in?"


    Xiaofeng''s tears are coming out. He doesn''t dare to go in with his things. Isn''t he delaying time waiting for the master and princess?


    Who knew the emperor would come back from outside?


    With a sad face, he was kicked into the door by the emperor, and the burden in his hand fell to the ground.


    Liu ningsi came to pick up the baggage and slowly put the utensils and utensils in the baggage on the desk one by one.


    Seeing that she picked up a knife and burned it on the candle, Jing Yuan did not hesitate to sit in a chair and opened his chest.


    Xiaofeng rushed to his feet and cried, "emperor, no, Emperor!"


    Jing Yuan kicked it again.


    Xiaofeng was kicked aside and immediately found himself unable to move or speak.


    He watched helplessly. The princess''s blade was getting closer and closer to the emperor''s chest


    At the moment when the tip of the knife was about to pierce into the skin, he closed his eyes in despair.


    Just then, the door was kicked open with a bang.


    Feng Xin came in like the wind and stretched out his hand under the tip of the knife, "princess, be merciful under the knife."


    Wuhe also came in and saw Xiaofeng leaning aside. He kindly helped her up and stretched out his hand to unlock the acupoints for her.


    Master is better.


    Xiaofeng held the master and almost cried.


    Jing Yuan asked in a deep voice with his jacket lapel folded. "Younger martial sister, what are you doing?"


    Feng Xin looked at Yushu Linfeng but stood there with wet hair. He didn''t look half reluctant and hesitant. He couldn''t help crying out, "senior brother."


    Jing Yuan smiled, "unexpectedly, Wuhe moved you here."


    Fengxin ignored him, looked straight at him and asked, "elder martial brother is so determined to die. Don''t you want to leave a word to younger martial sister?"


    How can they say that it''s the love of growing up together since childhood. So they say that they die?


    Jing Yuan spoke slowly after a moment of silence. "Take care of Xi''er, Xiao yu''er and her bones and flesh for me. If you are free, come to the palace every two years to see the empress mother and let her not suffer too much from illness."


    Feng Xin''s heart tightened, "if sister-in-law wakes up, I know..."


    "If you don''t say it, she won''t know... Even if she knows, I won''t regret it."


    "Xiao yu''er is still so small... You... Don''t give up?"


    Mentioning Xiao yu''er, he turned to Wuhe, "I have left a message in the secret box of Zichen hall. If... Please ask the Empress Dowager to preside over the overall situation and read out the message... "


    Wuhe''s body was shocked... He just left the Zichen hall. The emperor certainly didn''t leave a legacy... Did... The emperor prepare a few days ago?


    Then Jing Yuan sighed, "if you want to say that you don''t give up, I just can''t give up Xi''er... As long as she is well, what if I give up my life?"


    Feng Xin was also afraid of shock, and it took a long time to calm down.


    She asked again, "elder martial brother, have you really decided?"


    Jing Yuan nodded, "yes."


    Wuhe looked at her nervously. Are you going to do it? Control the emperor and don''t let him fool around... The cool imperial dynasty has just stabilized. Will there be another wave to harm the common people?

 Chapter 320

    Feng Xin nodded, "elder martial brother, the master died and asked me to protect you... I will support any decision you make..."


    The five rivers were shocked, "the princess can''t!"


    He invited Princess Fengxin to stop the Emperor... Why did she support him instead?


    Feng Xin motioned him to take it easy. At this time, he turned to Liu ningsi, "princess, I heard that master Liu Zongyuan still left a kind of poison, which can drill into the heart of the human body and take heart blood without hurting people''s lives?"


    Wuhe was relieved at this time.


    Jing Yuan is also shining in his eyes. If he doesn''t have to change his life for life, won''t he be able to accompany Xi''er for a long time?


    Liu ningsi dropped her eyes silently and suddenly smiled, "the princess is really well-informed."


    She asked Xiaofeng, "did you get the baggage that the princess asked you to go to Liu''an palace?"


    Xiaofeng quickly presents it.


    She took a small box out of it and opened it. A brightly colored bug squirmed in it. It was creepy.


    "Since the princess knows this thing, she must also know the price she will pay if she uses it to take her heart and blood?"


    Five rivers just put down the heart again.


    Feng Xin frowned.


    Jing Yuan also frowned and looked at her disapprovingly, "younger martial sister?"


    Feng Xin smiled at him, "this Gu is a combination of mother and son. If the mother Gu takes your heart blood for you, its son Gu will stay in your heart all the time. On the 15th day of every month, you have to bear the pain of swallowing your heart... "But it''s better than losing his life, isn''t it?


    Jing Yuan resolutely said, "let''s do it."


    Feng Xin glanced at the five rivers and stepped aside.


    Five rivers can''t bear it, but it seems to be the best ending.


    It''s the 15th of every month


    He dared not think.


    Liu ningsi LIT an unknown incense and put it in front of the bright insect''s forehead. The insect actually walked along the incense.


    Seeing that she slowly led the insects out of the box, Fengxin suddenly asked, "Princess Qingya, you came all the way here to complete the master''s death. Now you ended in failure. How do you explain to your dead Master after you return to Youzhou?"


    Liu ningsi shook her hand and didn''t answer.


    Fengxin suddenly shot an object out of his hand, lightly interrupted and extinguished the fire on the incense, then quickly picked up the box and covered the insect.


    Liu ningsi raised her eyebrows and looked at her suspiciously.


    Jing Yuan is also puzzled.


    Feng Xin sneered, "Princess Qingya, this is not the son and mother Gu who can take heart and blood, is it?"


    Liu ningsi looked calm. "I don''t know the princess, why do you say this?"


    Feng Xin moved quickly and controlled her acupoints before he said, "if any Gu insect can suck blood, its skin color will be white and transparent. This Gu is bright in color and does not seem to be a thing that can suck blood."


    Wuhe and Xiaofeng were all in a cold sweat. We knew that the witch was not so easy to talk.


    Liu ningsi snorted coldly, "the insects are ever-changing. Based on this, the princess is too arbitrary?"


    "Oh? If it''s really the mother and son Gu who took the blood, you won''t worry about your life if you visit your body? "


    With that, Feng Xin took the incense from her hand, lit it with a fire fold, opened the box, slowly led the poisonous insect to him, and finally stuffed the rest of the incense into her hand.


    Her face changed greatly.


    If you don''t know martial arts, you really have no advantage. You can make people control acupoints and can''t move.


    She bit her silver teeth and said in horror, "don''t, don''t let it near me! I said! "


    Feng Xin looked at her with a smile. She has wandered the Jianghu for many years, and her cold heart is beyond ordinary people''s imagination.


    Liu ningsi watched the insect gradually climb the corner of his coat and come towards his hand.


    There was no blood on her face. "Please! I said, I said! It''s called seven day broken intestine gu! When you touch the skin, you will drill into the body, and those who are poisoned will break their intestines and die in seven days. "


    Jing Yuan looked cold. "It seems that you stayed too comfortable in zi''an palace for five days!"


    Wuhe wanted to slap him in the face and scolded bitterly, "you poisonous woman, the emperor has decided to spare your life, but you have to lay a poisonous hand!"


    Feng Xin laughed, "it''s only seven days before I break my heart?! Great! "


    She stretched out her hand and bent Liu ningsi''s incense holding hand down, making her fingers close to her thigh.


    Greatly shortened the distance from the insect to her fingertips.


    Liu ningsi was even more frightened, "please! Don''t... "


    "Why don''t you tell me what you came all the way from Youzhou to do?" Feng Xin walked slowly to the table and turned over her baggage.


    "Of course, it''s to let the empress recover and maintain the justice of heaven!"


    Feng Xin seems to have found something from her baggage. She takes it out and looks like chatting, "then why do you want to use poisonous insects to harm the emperor?"


    Liu ningsi turned her back to him. She didn''t know what she was doing. She felt that the insect had almost climbed to the tip of her finger and screamed, "he let me sleep in the coffin for five days and five nights. I didn''t know what he was doing. Naturally, I had to find all ways to revenge."


    Feng Xin still asked leisurely, "you haven''t answered my first question yet? If you can''t finish the master''s last life, how can you make a job back? "


    Liu ningsi screamed again, "come on, take it away! no Ah - "her scream ended in a stabbing pain.


    The insect bit a hole in his fingertip and immediately followed the blood into her skin.


    The next moment I saw her face pale and full of despair.


    Feng Xin then took the things in his hand and walked up to her, "it seems that you don''t have to go back to Youzhou to recover your life! So it doesn''t matter whether you finish the master''s death or not? "


    She said in horror and despair, "please, kill me! Give me a, happy! "


    Xiaofeng was surprised and angry.


    Jing Yuan stopped Feng Xin, "can''t kill! Xi''er is still waiting for her secret skill! "


    Feng Xin untied her acupoints. "How long does it take for the outbreak of Gu poison?"


    Liu ningsi was paralyzed on the ground, "an hour."


    "Well, you have an hour to complete the implementation of the secret arts. If it is finished, the palace will naturally give you a good time. "


    Liu ningsi shuddered all over. She knew better than anyone what kind of tragedy it was.


    Feng Xin then said, "is the process of secret arts written in this brocade book? If you dare to move any more, this palace will hurt you a thousand times! "


    Liu ningsi looked numb. It turned out that she felt that the inability to move for five days and five nights was the limit of pain. Unexpectedly, there were seven heartbroken sufferings waiting for her... Now what fate and heaven are all unimportant to her. All she asked for was death.


    So she stared at the dagger, walked slowly and picked it up.


    Feng Xin frowned. The life and death of her elder martial brother and sister-in-law are all controlled by this woman. It''s really hard to feel! Besides, senior brother is likely to... Who in this world can survive with a knife in his heart?


    Wuhe knelt down again, banging his head on the ground, "emperor, please think twice!"


    Feng was upset and confused. A palm wind swept away the dagger in Liu ningsi''s hand.


    Jingyuan got up and strode there, picked up the dagger and said to Liu ningsi, "get ready to start!"


    Then he sat back in his chair again, opened his chest and pointed the dagger at his heart.


    Wuhe and Xiaofeng are scared to death!


    Feng Xin flew forward and grabbed his wrist.


    Jing Yuan slowly broke her finger with her other hand. "Younger martial sister, I must let Xi''er live!"


    Fengxin is very sad. Tears are about to flow out. Mother, I haven''t shed tears for many years! Xi''er''s girl, why is she so ill fated


    If it were Xi''er, what would she do?


    She grasped the elder martial brother''s hand again, "elder martial brother! I remember, I once saw Xi''er use a very thin needle tube in the mother and baby museum to stab into the human body to take blood! And that man is intact! If you have this needle, senior brother will not be in danger of life! "


    Wuhe woke up and kicked the breeze, "don''t go to the mother and baby hall to find doctor Hong Quan!"


    Xiaofeng wiped tears and sweat and ran out.


    Jing Yuan raised his eyes and looked at her, "aren''t you procrastinating?"


    "Elder martial brother, now you have a chance, you can survive and stay with Xi''er until you get old. Don''t you want to wait for this opportunity again? "


    Stay with Xi''er until he''s old... Jing Yuan was shocked for a moment. It''s too tempting


    So he released the dagger, nodded and said, "I''ll wait."


    Soon Dr. Hong Quan came into the palace with a medicine box.


    He knelt down to pay homage. Jing Yuan raised his hand and said, "excuse me, doctor Hong is working hard again."


    Hong Chen hurriedly said, "I dare not. It''s the honor of the grass people to share the worries and labor for the emperor."


    Feng Xin didn''t talk nonsense and directly asked him, "the palace has seen the queen stabbing a thin tube into the human body to take blood in the mother and baby hall. Has the doctor ever seen this?"


    Hong Chen opened the medicine box in his hand, searched it, and took out a slender tube wrapped in white cloth. "What can the princess say?"


    This is a very thin copper tube specially made by the queen. He only saw the queen use it once. Once, when a pregnant woman had a massive hemorrhage in her spleen, he was helpless. At the same time, the queen inspected the mother and baby hall and asked him to insert it near her spleen to draw out the dirty blood.


    Feng Xin asked him cautiously, "if this tube is inserted into the heart of the human body and leads to the blood of the heart, can human life be hindered?"


    Hong Quan told the truth, "this tube has only been used once by the empress to draw the dirty blood from the spleen and heart... I haven''t tried... However, it is so thin that the wound caused to the human body is also very small..."


    There should be no big problem.


    Feng Xin looked at Jing Yuan, "senior brother, let''s have a try."


    He nodded without objection. The worst plan was to exchange life for life.


    When Hong Quan saw that the copper pipe was going to pierce the emperor''s chest, he was so frightened that he knelt down directly.


    "Wait, the copper pipe hasn''t been disinfected yet!"


    In a cold sweat, he quickly took out the vinegar bottle in the medicine box, soaked the copper tube in it for a while, burned it on the candle, and then handed it to Fengxin.


    Liu ningsi, looking numb, picked up the small cup on one side and pressed it against the emperor''s chest.

 Chapter 321

    Feng Xin closed his eyes and quickly stabbed the copper tube into the emperor''s heart. The blood flowed out slowly along the copper tube and soon filled a small half cup.


    Liu ningsi said carefully, "enough."


    Fengxin slowly drew out the copper tube, picked up the gauze prepared next to him and pressed it on the elder martial brother''s heart. Looking at the elder martial brother''s face carefully, "elder martial brother, are you okay?"


    Jing Yuan just looked a little pale, nodded and said, "only a little tingling."


    Dr. Hong Quan hurried forward and said, "emperor, you need to press a incense stick on your chest for a long time. Usually, small wounds in the heart will stop bleeding and close slowly. " The queen told him that.


    Feng Xin was greatly relieved.


    Wuhe and Xiaofeng were also greatly relieved.


    Liu ningsi said, "you all go out first."


    Feng Xin nodded at Jing Yuan, "don''t worry if I''m watching!",


    Wuhe and Xiaofeng hurriedly helped the emperor out.


    Hong Quan followed.


    In the later steps, Feng Xin looked at Liu ningsi''s operation step by step according to the brocade book in his hand.


    Half an hour later, Liu ningsi came out in sweat.


    Feng Xin is also sweating.


    Jing Yuan looked at them with expectation.


    Liu ningsi was still numb, waiting for the terrible ending.


    Feng Xin also nodded at him and said softly, "senior brother, I wish you all the things you want.".


    Jing Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.


    Let Liu ningsi practice this secret skill. He is also gambling. If he wants to completely eliminate the hidden danger of Yu Xi, he can''t wait for Yu Xi''s soul strength to weaken and make Xi''er wake up.


    The worst possibility is that Xi''er didn''t come back for a while. At that time, it''s a big deal to move Yuxi into her body and will support her body.


    Feng Xin picked up his wrist again, took his pulse and said in surprise, "elder martial brother, you''re all right. Even if you lose some blood, you will soon make it up! "


    Wuhe and Xiaofeng took a long breath. Before that, they had been secretly observing the emperor. Although they saw that he looked like normal, they didn''t know what his physical condition was. They were always uneasy in their hearts.


    Now Princess Fengxin said so, they were completely relieved.


    Hong Quan was relieved and left. Xiaofeng spontaneously sent him out of the palace.


    Jing Yuan finally smiled on his tight face for days, "younger martial sister, thank you very much!"


    "You''re welcome, elder martial brother!" Feng Xin waved his hand, "it''s time for Xiao Yu''s needle. I should go." Then he quickly disappeared at the door.


    Jing Yuan opened the door and went straight to the unconscious man lying on the bed.


    Her eyes were closed and her chest was slightly undulating, just like sleeping on weekdays.


    His hands trembled and stroked her face. Then he wrapped her in a brocade quilt and picked her up.


    Five rivers jumped beside, "emperor, you should take care of the dragon body!"


    Jing Yuan turned a deaf ear, ran all the way back to Ning''an palace, put her back on the big bed in the bedroom, and then stared at her sleeping face, motionless.


    He bent down, gently buried his head in her shoulder and neck, and murmured, "Xi''er, I''ve driven her away. Wake up..."


    "Xi''er, you''ve been sleeping for half a month... Don''t you want to open your eyes to see me and Xiao yu''er?"


    "And this daughter," his big hand stroked her abdomen, "was almost hurt by Yuxi... Wake up and guard together


    Our daughter... "


    ¡­¡­


    Wuhe, who had been following behind, stopped outside the door and looked up at the sky before slowly forcing the wet in his eyes back


    Jing Yuan woke up at the bedside at Mao o''clock the next day.


    The people in bed are still asleep.


    He blinked, got up and went to the bathroom.


    The five rivers waiting outside the door heard the movement, walked to the door and asked softly, "emperor, are you... Okay?"


    Jing Yuan was silent.


    After a while, he said, "go and preach. I''m slightly ill. I''ll stop working for three days."


    Xi''er, she said if you were here, you would wake up in three days.


    I don''t want to miss the first moment you wake up.


    I will always be with you


    The five rivers paused and bowed down to deliver the message.


    In the daytime, Jing Yuan asked Wu''s mother to hold Xiao yu''er and they accompanied her together.


    When xiaoyu''er needed a needle during his lunch break, he asked mother Wu to take her back to Yuyang palace.


    In the evening, Jing Yuan still held her in his arms and talked about the things they had experienced together.


    "The first time I saw you, it was when I was poisoned and couldn''t move... You helped my wrist hanging from the side of the bed back to the bed and asked me to blink to answer your question... At that time, I didn''t know you were a quack and thought you were really a miracle doctor..."


    "Later I found out that all your detoxification secrets depend on Xiaobai... You are too cunning. Do you think Xiaobai is omnipotent?..."


    "But slowly I found out that you also have some real skills... For example, if you use magic to set Shu Yue... Create a sky lantern to fly us over the cliff... And create a new iron weapon to solve my crisis... Is your school immortal cave? How can it be all inclusive?... "


    ¡­¡­


    On the first night, she followed him back to the Marquis house... And then she was poisoned by the sound of heaven demons


    On the second night, they entered the palace and became emperors and queens... They opened up territory and territory, recovered the other four countries and unified the mainland in just one year


    The third night finally came to an end.


    "When Zihe county comes back, you really become the queen of medicine. The word quack can no longer be used on you... You saved so many people... Saved so many lives... Xi''er... Come back soon... If you don''t come back, I don''t know how to tell the future story..."


    "Let me see... If you wake up, in the future... We will take good care of our daughter and give birth to her smoothly... And then ask doctor Wu for a prescription, okay? Son avoiding, let me drink it... It hurts women to drink son avoiding soup... If your soul power decreases every time you get pregnant... Then you don''t want children anymore... We have one son and one daughter, that''s enough... "


    He tightened his arm.


    "What if it''s not my daughter?" A husky voice came.


    "It must be a daughter. We love each other so much and accumulate so many blessings. God will let us achieve what we want..." after he said that, he suddenly froze and looked at the people in his arms. His voice trembled, "Xi, Xi, are you back? Are you awake? "


    Her eyes were still closed, as if she were struggling to shake, but her lips were gently opening and closing, "you bastard, even scold me as a quack..." it was originally an angry language, but it was powerless as if she was coquetting


    He was ecstatic, "Xi''er, Xi''er, are you awake?! Are you really awake? "


    She seemed to break through the last trace of resistance and slowly opened her eyes.


    There, he is familiar with the streamer - self-confidence, coyness, emotion, trust


    He held her face in his hand and kissed her vigorously. His lips and tongue tossed and whispered, "Xi''er, my Xi''er... You''re finally back..."


    She was a little out of breath, raised her weak hand and pushed him hard.


    He was surprised and left her lips.


    "Asshole, you want me to suffocate when I wake up?"


    He held her face like a rare treasure. When he heard the speech, he bah to one side, "no more!" What? Dead, dead, unlucky.


    He buried his head firmly in the nest of her neck. "Just come back, just come back."


    She was wondering. She felt that some warm liquid seemed to flow through her ears


    So he didn''t want her to see tears


    Her nose was sour, "my husband, I know... I saw and heard..."


    "What?" He didn''t understand. He still fell on her neck and didn''t move.


    "I''ve been there, but I can''t come out... I see what you''ve done for me..."


    He brushed his face white and she saw everything? Heard everything?


    Well, then he put her in the coffin


    She should understand that he was punishing Yuxi, right?


    ¡­¡­


    That night, the whole people of Ning''an palace, regardless of their sleepiness, got up and dressed up for standby.


    The palace maids and eunuchs who were not assigned to work were also waiting outside the door with a smile on their faces.


    Feng Xin came to see her for the first time, answered that everything was well, and then went back to make up for her sleep.


    Mother Wu came over with her sleeping little yu''er, looked at the queen with a smile, kissed her son''s sleeping face lovingly, and then took him back with satisfaction.


    The Empress Dowager also sent mammy Su to see the state of the queen with her own eyes, and went back happily.


    ¡­¡­


    The result was that in the morning of the fourth day, the five rivers had urged outside the door five times, and the emperor still had no intention of getting up.


    Zhuo Xi patted him on the face. "It''s almost half past the Mao hour. The ministers of the previous dynasty are in a hurry. Get up!"


    I didn''t do anything, so it doesn''t make people fantasize?


    Xi''er just woke up. He was weak and pregnant for two months. Naturally, he couldn''t do anything, but he just wanted to stay by her side, hold her, kiss her and look at her


    She pushed him. "Get up! Do you want me to be laughed at? "


    "Who dares?" He stared at her without blinking. After a long time, he made up his mind and asked, "Xi''er, you won''t......" did you sleep or go away?


    Zhuo Xi was stunned, grabbed his hand and clenched it hard, "no!" If he treats her like this, she will try to stay in this body.


    So, is it because he was afraid that he didn''t go to court?


    She suddenly chuckled, "I can''t sleep after sleeping for so many days. I''ll go to court with you! "


    His eyes sparkled, "really?"


    "Of course it''s true!"


    Her bones are hard. It''s better to get up early.


    He got up quickly.


    The two men dressed each other in court clothes.


    But I made a mistake when I combed my hair.


    Jing Yuan''s head was soon combed.


    She just wore a bun.


    Also insert hairpins and make-up


    Jing Yuan looked relaxed. "Don''t worry, go slowly."


    But she tore off her bun and ordered Chun Qing, who combed her hair, "comb a top bun and find a set of eunuch clothes for the palace."


    Ah?


    Jing Yuan heard the speech. After a moment of stupidity, the smile on his lips was deeper and deeper


    ¡­¡­

 Chapter 322

    Half an hour later, the five rivers finally wiped their sweat and led the emperor''s Dragon chariot to the Zichen hall.


    All officials have talked about it.


    Zhuo Xi glanced at him.


    His heart is very useful.


    ¡­¡­


    All officials stood still and made a big gift to the emperor who had been seated.


    However, someone soon found out with sharp eyes why there was a small eunuch standing behind the emperor


    What''s more, the emperor actually gave the little eunuch a seat when the Chaoyi just started a incense burning time?


    Fortunately, the little eunuch was very conscious and slowly moved the seat inward until the whole figure hid behind the wide dragon chair


    The officials couldn''t see that figure, so they deceived themselves and others and felt more comfortable


    ¡­¡­


    But Zhuo Xi is very boring and doesn''t have a mobile phone to brush the circle of friends... She can only play around her fingers with the dusting horsetail silk in her hand


    After walking around for a long time, it was really boring. He took the dusting rod and stuck it through the small gap in the back of the chair to stab Jingyuan''s back.


    Later, she found that the people in front were not affected at all, and she began to be bored


    So she began to write on his back with a dusting pole.


    The first was "so hungry".


    Jing Yuan winked at the five rivers standing under the steps.


    Five rivers came to the emperor for no reason. He is a close servant of the son of heaven. Such behavior happens from time to time in the court discussion, but it is not noticeable.


    But Wuhe was almost messy in the wind after listening to the emperor''s orders


    Is the queen hungry?


    What is he going to do?


    Bring a cup of food to the empress behind the Dragon chair?


    This is Zichen hall!


    Not to mention eating, but not even a cup of tea or water


    But invite the empress to eat out?


    So what?


    Just now the emperor almost dragged her to the Dragon chair


    He walked down slowly with a tangled face and moved gently towards the side door. He didn''t know where he was thinking


    Xiaofeng, who has relieved his work task, came back to the master to reply. Seeing the master''s appearance of being in a state of panic, he couldn''t help but come forward and ask curiously, "master, what''s the matter with you?"


    Five rivers murmured subconsciously, "hungry..."


    Xiaofeng widened his eyes and said, "master, are you hungry? Mother-in-law will go to the dining room to see if there are chicken legs... "


    An excited soul in Wuhe woke up, "little rabbit, which wants to eat chicken legs?"


    "Master, aren''t you hungry?"


    Wuhe kept walking to the imperial dining room for a moment. He scolded in his heart. If only our family were hungry, it would be the queen!


    "What did you just say, chicken leg?"


    Wuhe suddenly smiled. The Beijing roast duck invented by the empress is now an ordinary dish in the imperial dining room. This dish is very hungry, and you can eat it directly in your hand... If you pack two packs quietly, should no one notice?


    ¡­¡­


    Wuhe knocked on Xiaofeng''s head again, "yes, our family is hungry! Go and get a box of Beijing roast duck! "


    Xiaofeng covered his head and went to the imperial dining room. But he secretly breathed out a long breath. The Emperor didn''t send him away at the first time. Should he not be killed?


    When zhuoxi was bored, Wuhe came in quietly. When passing by her, he quickly stuffed a bag of things into her hand.


    Zhuoxi was a little confused. When she opened it, it was a well wrapped Beijing roast duck!


    The queen, who hid behind the Dragon chair to eat during the court discussion, is afraid that she has been the only one since ancient times?! Zhuo Xi thought to herself, but she was really hungry. She thought she couldn''t care about herself and had to care about the one in her stomach, so she stuffed a piece of roast duck into her mouth without hesitation.


    Jing Yuan listened to the sound of chewing and swallowing from behind and smelled the smell of the roast duck. He couldn''t help but put on a spoiled smile on his lips. When the next official''s report came to an end, he made a decisive voice, "let''s discuss it today, discuss it tomorrow, and retreat from the DPRK -"


    The five rivers immediately screamed, "retreat to the North -"


    All civil and military officials looked at each other. Why did they retreat from the court before they began to discuss it?


    And as usual, the emperor got up and left first, and all officials watched the emperor disappear behind the curtain before he left slowly


    But today, the emperor sat still. Is it time to retreat?


    When the five rivers saw that all the officials under them were motionless, they looked at the breeze and the pillars. The little eunuch hurried to the officials and stretched out his hand, "Sir, please --"


    Gongsunli and xichikou looked at each other, saw a smile in each other''s eyes, and took the lead in walking out of the Zichen hall.


    It seems that the queen is awake. The emperor is in a good mood


    When the man hall was clean and the five rivers asked people to close the doors and windows, they closed the last side door and guarded it outside in person. No one was allowed to come in.


    Jing Yuan, who had been waiting for a long time, finally coughed.


    Zhuo Xi raised her confused eyes from the roast duck, "eh, why are they all gone?"


    He coughed again. "Don''t turn around yet."


    She pinched a rolled roast duck in one hand and held a food box in the other hand. She came and stuffed it into Jing Yuan''s mouth, "are you hungry? If you want to eat, just say... "


    He fished her petite body with one hand, swallowed the food in his mouth in twos and threes, bent over and kissed her.


    His tongue is full of the smell of roast duck, but he doesn''t care so much... Just now she has been harassing him in the back, and the tip of his nose is full of her if there is no fragrance, so he can''t help it for a long time


    Besides, it turns out that the Dragon chair is really spacious, which is much more convenient than the armchair in the Military Academy last time... Since then, I''ve wanted to try the feeling in the Jinluan Hall


    Zhuo Xi was startled. When he was pressed down, he didn''t forget to tilt his head and gently put the food box in his hand on the armrest of the Dragon chair. Only then did he slowly bear his taste from the tip of his tongue and nose


    The tip of his tongue rolled on her lips, slowly sketched her lip line, and then went deep and chased


    She was very relaxed and knew that it was an extraordinary time, and he couldn''t really do anything to her... At most, kissing... But she wasn''t full yet... The roast duck tasted very good... After they were tired of it for a while, she struggled to leave his lips and shouted, "the baby is still hungry..."


    She''s telling the truth, referring to the baby in her belly


    Who knows, the man''s eyes are deep and his voice is hoarse. He spits out a few words: "the baby is hungry..."


    She suddenly smothered, remembering that day he wanted to exchange his life for his life... Remembering the past three days, he held her and recalled the past to himself. The memory was full of love, so she was so soft that she let him go


    Then he felt cold and his clothes faded. His warm body was close to her and his wet lips swam around her sensitive place... She suddenly opened her eyes and found that the background was the sorghum painting top she was not familiar with... The majestic black dragon was spitting fire beads at her fiercely on the gilded column


    She woke up and beat his naked back, "God, this is Zichen hall! It''s Jinluan hall! No! "


    He had only pressed half of his body and cared about the bones and flesh in her stomach. He couldn''t go deep. He just kissed the people under her regardless. After listening to her cry, he put a smile on his lips and put her hand to the key, "the baby has been hungry for a long time, you can help it..."


    Didn''t you hear the point? The point is, this is not the right place!


    She struggled to get up. It was so frightening that she was in the majestic and solemn Jinluan Hall


    "It''s not appropriate... Uh huh..."


    He raised his head to block her lips, breathed with her, and said hoarsely for a long time, "what''s wrong? I''ve wanted to be here for a long time... "


    ¡­¡­


    She was speechless.


    After all, he didn''t succeed in caring for the baby in his belly.


    He got up with a gloomy face.


    Zhuo Xi suddenly remembered something, turned over, pressed on his chest, and looked carefully at his smooth chest.


    Jing Yuan held her hand and said, "speaking of it, Xi''er, you saved my life."


    If it weren''t for his copper needle tube, he wouldn''t live long after taking his heart blood.


    She found a small black spot on his chest and pressed it, "doesn''t it hurt?"


    He shook his head. "It doesn''t hurt at all."


    Her lips kissed gently, and a drop of hot tears fell on his chest, "what a fool, why are you so stupid?"


    The abdomen, and the scars she left when she stabbed him.


    Fortunately, Feng Xin is clever this time, otherwise if she wakes up and remembers that he died to save her, how will she live?


    Don''t you know she''s in that body??


    She heard everything they said and did.


    Her heart was broken when she heard it inside. The whole soul exploded and wanted to rush out, but she couldn''t get out anyway


    "Isn''t everything all right?" He hugged her and said softly, "younger martial sister said, I would hate to die if I had the chance to accompany you to the old age..."


    "No, you have to promise me that you can''t die in front of me." Zhuo Xi said fiercely.


    Jing Yuan was silent.


    "Do you have the heart to leave me alone in this world?" Zhuo Xi looked at him with tears.


    He was so soft hearted that he hugged her even more, "I won''t."


    But if he traded his life for his life again, he would still make the same choice.


    ¡­¡­


    The two were tired of skewing for a while, so they got up and went to Yuyang palace to see Xiao yu''er.


    Xiao yu''er suddenly appeared in front of her mother, who had not been seen for many days. She was so happy that she rushed to her and kept shouting "mother, kiss".


    Zhuo Xi found that he would say one more word, which was very strange. She kissed him fiercely, "the baby is so powerful!"


    Jing Yuan stood aside and turned black in silence.


    Fengxin happened to come with xiaoyao''er. Seeing that they were in good spirits, he was also very happy, "Xi''er, it''s great that you''re okay!"!, It scared the hell out of me. "


    Zhuo Xi held Feng Xin''s hand and said sincerely, "thank you for saving Jing Yuan."


    Sister Feng, take out your hand, "elder martial brother, it''s my elder martial brother. What can I thank you for? Besides, it was you who really saved him. If it weren''t for your copper needle tube, it''s really hard to say what''s going on now, senior brother. "


    Zhuo Xi had to rejoice that when Ma San was asked to make a gold needle, he had more heart and made a pair of needle tubes. Unexpectedly, he was sent to such a great use


    But Xiao Yu''s illness

 Chapter 323

    She looked serious and asked Feng Xin about him carefully.


    On that day, she watched Yu Qian stab an inch long embroidery needle into Xiao yu''er''s arm, not to mention how distressed she was.


    That''s the latest embroidery needle made by Ma San in her house. She gave a set to the sewing room and left a short one for herself. She often received children''s clothes sent by others. One day, she had a whim that she hadn''t even made a pair of socks and a hat for Xiao yu''er, so she asked Ma San to make ultra-fine embroidery needles with new iron, and when she was going to learn the Kung Fu of needlework. Unexpectedly, Yuxi turned it out that day. If mother Wu hadn''t heard Xiao yu''er''s cry quickly, there might have been a second and third embroidery needle stabbed into Xiao yu''er''s body.


    Her heart aches. Now I know that the embroidery needle has been moved to the vein of the wrist.


    She looked at Feng Xin gratefully. If not, Xiao yu''er doesn''t know how much pain to suffer.


    She thought for a moment and said to Jing Yuan, "Ma San once found a magnet in the mine mountain. Can the emperor ask someone to get one?"


    It was mentioned in a letter to him immediately that she didn''t pay special attention.


    Jing Yuan nodded and asked Wuhe to order people to do it.


    After a while, Jing Yuan went back to his study.


    Zhuo Xi and Feng Xin had lunch with their two children, exchanged some parenting experiences, and went back to their rooms for a nap.


    In the afternoon, the people sent to cangcui mountain to get the magnet came back. What a big rough magnet!


    Zhuo Xi was startled when she saw it. She quickly asked people to knock it into small pieces, and took one of them to grind it into a smooth circle.


    Fengxin didn''t know what the magnet was. She came to see her treat xiaoyu''er very curiously.


    Zhuo Xi let Xiao yu''er sit down at will, then took the round magnet, fixed it on his arm, and then moved very slowly towards the pulse gate of his wrist.


    Feng Xin looked surprised. As usual, she practiced Kung Fu and needles for Xiao yu''er every day. She was so tired that she didn''t say it. Xiao yu''er also had to bear great pain.


    But she moved so much that Xiao yu''er not only had no pain, but also felt that his mother was playing games for him and giggled.


    After about a quarter of an hour, Zhuo Xi could press the existence of the embroidery needle at the cute place. Compared with the small blood vessels of Xiao yu''er, this embroidery needle is surprisingly thick.


    She handed xiaoyu''er''s wrist to Feng Xin, "a Xin, can you use your internal skill to force this needle out of his blood vessels?"


    Feng Xin was shocked. He used his internal skill to work hard to stitch him. He could only do half an inch in half an hour. Unexpectedly, this round thing moved it at least three inches in one incense burning time.


    However, the needle is close to the skin surface. It''s easy to force it out with a little internal force. So she worked hard and pressed her fingers on Xiao yu''er''s wrist. With a little force, an embroidery needle gushed out.


    Xiao yu''er thought her aunt was also playing games with him. Unexpectedly, the next moment she stared at the red blood on her wrist, and then a stabbing pain on her wrist made her cry.


    Without hesitation, Zhuo Xi immediately tied his wrist with a bandage to stop the blood. Fortunately, it was in the vein and the blood stopped soon.


    She hugged Xiao yu''er and comforted him in a low voice, "it won''t hurt in the future."


    Feng Xin looked at the round stone and felt very magical.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "a Xin, put the magnet on the embroidery needle for an interview."


    Feng Xin looked at the embroidery needle lying on the side wrapped in blood and moved the pebble. Unexpectedly, the embroidery needle was sucked by it and pasted on the pebble with a soft sound.


    Feng Xin''s eyes widened.


    Zhuo Xi smiled with Xiao yu''er, who gradually whispered, "ah Xin, this magnet can absorb iron. The embroidery needle is sucked forward by it, and naturally it goes up a lot faster... But thank you very much these days... "


    Feng Xin decisively put the pebble into the palm of his hand, "if you want to thank me, send me!"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what''s there? Just take it if you like!"


    In this era, although the magnet is rare, it is not practical.


    If placed in modern times, it is a good object for rotating coil power generation


    "Oh, by the way, what about Liu ningsi after that day?" She suddenly remembered to ask.


    Feng Xin lightly replied, "promise her. After it''s done, I gave her a good time."


    Zhuo Xi was silent.


    £½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½£½


    The stormy waves in the palace didn''t come out of the palace at all, so it didn''t affect the joy of the Wu family.


    Peng family of Wu family started early in the morning, tossed for a long time, and finally gave birth to a daughter in the expectation of everyone.


    Wu Xing was very happy and went into the palace to report the good news to the emperor.


    The emperor was dealing with the government affairs accumulated a few days ago. He was overjoyed at the news, rewarded him, and asked him to go to Ning''an palace in person to congratulate the empress.


    Wu Xing was also happy. He came out of Zichen hall and went straight to Ning''an palace.


    He hasn''t stepped into Ning''an palace since he came back from the northern expedition. The emperor knows the details. He doesn''t avoid other people''s eyes and ears, but also the emperor''s eyes and ears.


    Zhuo Xi resumed her usual routine and was holding the first regular logistics meeting after returning to the palace.


    At this time, hearing that the eldest brother came, she quickly asked the female officials in charge of the meeting to take refuge in the side hall. She took Su''s clothes and sat on the upper seat before she let him in.


    Wu Xing knelt down to salute and presented a basket of red eggs.


    I don''t know when the custom of giving birth to a son and giving birth to a daughter and giving birth to a happy egg began to spread in the mother and baby hall, and the whole Kyoto can''t help but join the fun.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the bright red egg and smiled, "sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter?"


    Wu Xing nodded.


    "Brother, please get up. This is a great event! Come on, "she turned to the Spring Festival Gala," go to the warehouse to find handle yuruyi and give it to my nephew''s daughter. In addition, find some nourishing herbs and send them to my sister-in-law. "


    The Spring Festival Gala happily took the red egg from Wu Xing and thanked him, "thank you, Lord Wu."


    These happy egg empresses can''t eat them. Isn''t it cheap for the people of Ning''an palace?


    Wu Xing saluted the empress again and thanked her before she stood up.


    Zhuo Xi asked excitedly, "who does your nephew look like? Isn''t it cute? "


    Wu Xing was covered with black lines. When his daughter was born, he took a look. It was red and wrinkled. Where can he see who he looked like?


    But he couldn''t boast that he was like me, so he hardened his head and said, "probably like her mother."


    Zhuo Xi showed a disdainful expression on her face, "what do you big men know? The newborn baby doesn''t have long facial features. Where can you see who he looks like? No, I''ll have someone go back with you and look after me. Anything can come back and forth directly. "


    Mrs. Liu, the Wu family''s wife, was unable to move. She called someone, "is Mrs. Yu in the palace? Go and invite her over. "


    The person who came was early spring. He was surprised at the speech and didn''t dare to answer.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "what''s going on?"


    Chunzao said softly, "Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Yu has been locked up in the military punishment department for some time..."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "what?! Say it again? "


    Without her knowledge, someone was sent to the military punishment department, which could only be ordered by the Empress Dowager or the emperor.


    The Empress Dowager never interferes in the affairs of Ning''an palace. Is it the emperor?


    It is impossible for the emperor not to know the relationship between Mrs. Yu and her. How could he send her to the military punishment department?


    The other spring morning can''t say anything.


    She had to ask, "who sent it in that day?"


    Chunzao recalled, "it seems to be father-in-law Xiaofeng on duty in Zichen hall."


    "Go and call him."


    Spring should be here early.


    Wu Xing didn''t know, so Tun smiled, "don''t worry. When my Jing is out of the month, I will ask her to bring her daughter to greet you. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "sister-in-law is hard in the month, and brother still has to accompany her more."


    Wu Xing replied, "yes." He smiled bitterly in his heart. Since the four generals went to the border to operate their own territory, he, the three life marching commander, had not been given the task of traveling to the territory. He had to run to the military academy all day, and stayed at home with his wife for the rest of the time


    Zhuo Xi also thought of this. At the beginning, she seemed to suggest that the emperor let the eldest brother stay a few more days. She smiled and said, "does the eldest brother still want to go to Ruihe city?"


    Wu Xing was stunned. He wanted to make great achievements, so he went on an expedition to datan. His three life marching commander''s position is also the Ruihe city over there. What my mother asked was


    "In fact, as long as he has the opportunity to serve the emperor, it''s the same everywhere," he said


    Zhuo Xi also smiled. "Before, the palace suggested to the emperor to stay with the eldest brother for a few more days, so as not to miss the eldest sister-in-law''s production and leave regret. Now everything has been settled. Just a few days ago, the emperor mentioned to the palace that the commander of Tingwei''s army and Horse Department suddenly died suddenly. There was no one to hold the vacancy for a moment. I wonder if eldest brother is interested? "


    That day, after Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu left, she remembered that her eldest brother had been idle at home and asked for the position at that time. Later, too many things happened. She didn''t care about it, and the Emperor didn''t care about it.


    Wu xinglue pondered, "if you stay in Kyoto, you can take care of your home. It''s a good job. However, I still think that if my niece turns one year old, their mother and daughter can come to office with me... "


    Let him take office... Is it time to talk about separation? I didn''t expect that big brother''s determination to split up was so strong. It seems that people have confidence and are not afraid to make trouble.


    Zhuo Xi thought, "it''s also a success. In that case, go and ask the emperor for grace."


    Wu Xing, Shane, salute out.


    At this time, the breeze came.


    Zhuo Xi asked, "what''s the matter with Mrs. Yu?"


    Xiaofeng pinched a cold sweat in his palm and told the emperor that he heard Mrs. Yu talking with the "Queen" that day. The emperor asked him to control Mrs. Yu and send her to the Wu Xing division.


    Zhuo Xi was silent. She didn''t know that master clearance was also summoned from Zihe county all the way.


    Xiaofeng replied, "after that day, the clearance master also returned to Zihe County in the south. However, Mrs. Yu was only detained in the military punishment department. She was not allowed to be close to her. She listened to her nonsense and was not sentenced. My mother can rest assured. "

 Chapter 324

    Cold sweat began to seep from his forehead. Princess Qingya died. As soon as master Jingkong left, he became the only person who knew about the soul changing of the empress except the three masters in the palace... He still hasn''t figured out why the Emperor didn''t kill him... Is he going to leave him to the empress? But it''s been so many days... If he wanted to talk, he would have said it long ago?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t notice this and thought carefully, "nonsense? She...? "


    Xiaofeng nodded, "she''s crazy..."


    That''s why he''s more afraid!


    The only two people who know about it are crazy, leaving him a normal one. It''s a dying rhythm anyway


    So his face turned white again.


    Zhuo Xi found his abnormality and asked, "what''s the matter with you? Why is your face so ugly? " Aren''t you talking about Mrs. Yu? Why does it seem to have something to do with him?


    Xiaofeng knelt on the ground. When he heard this, he fell his head on the ground and trembled all over.


    Zhuo Xi shouted, "raise your face!"


    The breeze raised his face and the cold sweat flowed down like a waterfall.


    She snapped, "Mrs. Yu is crazy. Is it about you?!"


    Xiaofeng quickly kowtows, "no, no, no, I don''t know why she''s crazy..."


    "What are you nervous about?! Come from the truth! " Zhuo Xi drank angrily.


    Xiaofeng shook his body, "Mom, mom... Little, little don''t know anything! The little one won''t say anything! I swear if I say a word, I''ll hit five thunders in the sky! There is also a sick old mother and a young sister outside the small palace. The small one doesn''t want to die! "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and couldn''t believe it. "Say it again?"


    "Really, really, I swear, there will never be a word revealed from my small mouth. If I violate this oath, I will hit five thunders in the sky!" He thought his mother wanted him to swear again, so he said it again.


    Zhuo Xi sank her face. "Someone threatened you?"


    Xiaofeng is a little confused. Isn''t the biggest threat from you and the emperor?


    There is no one except the two masters


    So he gritted his teeth and shook his head, "no, no..."


    "Is that someone asking you for information?"


    "No!" He immediately denied that this was even more impossible.


    "What oath do you make?"


    Ah? Xiaofeng is confused again


    Zhuo Xi thought about it carefully and suddenly figured out whether he thought he was going to kill people?


    She looked at the little eunuch carefully and found that he was the little eunuch who fell into the hands of Prince Ming he that day and blocked the ghost hand of the grey man with high martial arts for herself, even the little eunuch with broken arm.


    She asked softly, "is your arm broken?"


    Xiaofeng burst into tears and finally remembered it!


    Shifu had already mentioned that if he hadn''t made great contributions to saving his mother, how could the emperor mention him as the second-class Eunuch in Zichen hall?


    It seems to be reused this time?


    He quickly nodded, "I''ve been recuperating for more than a month. It''s already good." He has a little knowledge of martial arts, is healthy, and recovers quickly.


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "what difficulties did you encounter in the palace? If so, you might as well tell the palace. "


    Xiaofeng is almost messy in the wind. You two are the difficulties in the palace


    Zhuo Xi thought for a while and asked, "what would you think if someone told you that the soul of the Lord of the harem had been replaced by someone a month ago?"


    Xiaofeng answered without thinking, "naturally, I don''t believe it. How can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world?"


    Zhuo Xi stood up. "Others, like you a month ago, have not experienced these things. Do you think even if you say it, someone will believe it?"


    Xiaofeng was stunned. Even if he let out a word, no one believed it?


    He suddenly understood why Mrs. Yu was crazy


    I suddenly understood why the emperor let him walk carelessly in the palace without even a word of advice... It was not that I was afraid of his nonsense, but that no one would believe him even if he talked nonsense


    So no one will kill him?


    He suddenly felt relaxed and burst into tears, "thank you, emperor, empress for your kindness..."


    Zhuo Xi added, "the emperor can let you participate in this matter, which shows that in his mind, you are a trustworthy person. In the future, you should be a good job, or you should not disappoint the emperor''s trust in you. " I''m afraid he made a good impression on the emperor that day because he was desperate to save himself.


    Xiaofeng immediately kowtowed his head again, "thank you for your grace, thank you for the grace of the emperor."


    "You step back first." Zhuo Xi waved her hand.


    Xiaofeng thanked again and again before he stood up and turned away. Unexpectedly, another sentence came from behind, "stop."


    His heart is cold. Doesn''t his mother change her mind?


    He knelt back to his original position and heard his mother ask, "where is the soul fixing pearl?"


    He breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "the emperor ordered the small one to be put in the treasure Pavilion warehouse for health care." I have to open it regularly to see if the blood inside has dried up... Dinghun beads should be raised with blood now


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "why don''t you go and see Mrs. Yu? If she is still awake, give the soul fixing bead to Mrs. Yu. If you are really crazy, you can still keep it. "


    Since then, she has nothing to do with Mrs. Yu.


    Although I had nothing to do with her, I thought she was the original owner''s mother and took care of her many times. I didn''t expect that she would destroy her chance to come back just for the word "mother"... In fact, from his point of view, it''s understandable to have her own real daughter


    Just... I''m a lonely man. Now I have a husband and children... Is it perfect?


    Xiaofeng agreed excitedly.

    The days gradually returned to normal.


    The first entrance examination of women''s Medical University was finally opened as scheduled.


    A lot of people signed up.


    After Jingrong''s on-site mobilization and the continuous publicity of the enrollment staff, many ladies and Jasper have signed up.


    Zhuo Xi successfully tricked Feng Xin into the University and became the dean of the College of pharmacy. She gave the questions of medicine and pharmacy in the exam. Zhuo Xi himself gave the examination questions of the nursing college.


    On the day of the examination, he Qian delivered the thin yellowing paper, which was not as good as expected, but it was the highest level of skill at that time.


    Zhuo Xi was in full bloom and made them produce in large quantities.


    At the same time, active printing technology is becoming more and more mature under the research of craftsmen.


    The mass production of drugs can finally be carried out


    Zhuo Xi breathed a long sigh of relief, but she was more concerned about the opening of Xishan villa group


    Wu Zhen has been arranged to do the publicity in the early stage, but I don''t know the effect?


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was March 19, the opening day of Xishan villa group.


    Because Jing Yuan was worried about her unstable fetal position and was frightened some time ago, she had clearly ordered her not to leave the palace and only to keep the fetus at ease. In fact, she knew that it was the emperor who disliked the emperor and came to the scene in person, which made her too vulgar to show up. In fact, she seems to be a developer... Enjoying the feeling of getting rich overnight... Although she has been in debt in the previous construction and decoration process, she is only a dry stock. How can she afford to pay? The pressure is all on the Wu family and the material suppliers in arrears


    Zhuo Xi had to scratch her ears and cheeks and wait for good news in the palace.


    When it was getting dark, good news finally came and Wu Zhen asked to see him.


    Zhuo Xi''s spirit was refreshed and announced immediately.


    "The grass people pay a visit to the empress. The empress is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old..."


    "No gift." She looked at Wu Zhen expectantly.


    Wu Zhen smiled and took out a piece of silk from his sleeve. "There are 136 villas in Xishan villa group. Except for the two left to the empress, the rest 134 are sold... This is the price and sum of each..."


    Zhuo Xi was elated immediately.


    It''s a pity not to attend such an unprecedented occasion... But the price?


    One is as high as 35600 taels of silver?


    Sure enough, it''s a huge profit. No wonder modern real estate developers are rich... Zhuo Xi''s mouth twitched. Although there is no business, I also know that the living cost of ordinary people is about three to five Liang silver, and an ordinary house in the most prosperous area of Kyoto City is only three or five hundred Liang silver.


    The villa located in the suburbs was originally expected to sell for about 5000 Liang silver. The high total price is mainly due to the large area. Who could have thought that it could be as high as more than 30000 liang?


    awesome.


    It can be seen that there are many rich folk


    In this way, the selling price of Xishan villas is as high as more than 4.7 million, nearly 5 million liang of silver, which is almost the income of the national treasury in a year.


    Wu Zhen took out another piece of silk, "this is your dividend, madam. The silver will be delivered after the grass people have prepared it in two days. "


    Although the land is provided by the royal family, how can this dividend go to the state treasury?


    Zhuo Xi opened it and smiled more happily. There were two million Liang


    It''s really ten Xiaoyu''s wives


    Her mood is very happy


    Unexpectedly, Wu Zhen took out the third piece of silk, "this is the glass lamp order placed by several major merchants today to Lord Yu... The small ones dare not make the decision, but ask them to leave the quantity and contact information, and the price remains to be decided by Lord Yu."


    What a surprise


    In other words, Wulin mountain is really his own property


    She looked at a series of orders, and all she saw was £¤£¤£¤£¤


    I can''t help coughing twice when I record and envy the spring warmth nearby.


    Empress, how are you? After a country, is it suitable to always show such a look of wealth fans?


    Zhuo Xi stared at the warmth of spring for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said, "shopkeeper Wu, half of the dividend will be transferred to Lord Ji at any time..." think about the empty box under the bed... It''s more painful


    Chunnuan could not help being stiff. She took a look at the empress''s firm look and truthfully recorded this sentence


    Lord Wu also came back from the petrification and bowed down, "it''s a great blessing for my mother to think of all the people in the world..."


    Fu your sister... I want to make more money after the university is established


    ¡­¡­

    In June, the first box of Chinese patent medicine of this era finally came out.


    Although it was only a rough carton printed with rough fonts, there were no refined tin foil packaged pills in it, only honey pills wrapped in edible grade oil paper, Zhuo Xi''s eyes were wet looking at the bright OTC three familiar letters on the box


    So she remembered another important thing. She urgently ordered people to sort out the medical laws and regulations originally implemented by Daliang and send them to Ning''an palace


    In August, the revised medical law was officially promulgated.


    On August 15, the first batch of 19 kinds of ordinary Chinese patent medicines were officially listed and circulated.


    In September, the students of the first women''s Medical University officially reported the opening of school... A large number of students came from Daliang counties, especially Junyao Prefecture in the south.


    Regardless of the risk of coming into labor, the empress insisted on attending the first school opening ceremony, which was highly praised by the people.


    In the same month, the men''s medical college began to be built on the hill opposite the women''s Medical College.


    Junyao Prefecture, far to the south, took the lead in building a branch of women''s Medical University


    In October, the queen gave birth to a princess, which was celebrated all over the world.


    At this time, a Xiang opera called "Mrs. medicine king" gradually spread from the south. Everyone who has heard it praises it and is beautiful.


    In December, near the end of the new year, the crew of Mrs. medicine king was invited to the palace to celebrate the Empress Dowager''s birthday. It is said that the Empress Dowager wept on the spot. She specially ordered everyone in the whole palace to watch. Therefore, the Baolian society performed in the harem for three days, and the performance was full every day.


    Since then, the name of "Queen of medicine" resounded inside and outside the palace

 Chapter 325

    She looked serious and asked Feng Xin about him carefully.


    On that day, she watched Yu Qian stab an inch long embroidery needle into Xiao yu''er''s arm, not to mention how distressed she was.


    That''s the latest embroidery needle made by Ma San in her house. She gave a set to the sewing room and left a short one for herself. She often received children''s clothes sent by others. One day, she had a whim that she hadn''t even made a pair of socks and a hat for Xiao yu''er, so she asked Ma San to make ultra-fine embroidery needles with new iron, and when she was going to learn the Kung Fu of needlework. Unexpectedly, Yuxi turned it out that day. If mother Wu hadn''t heard Xiao yu''er''s cry quickly, there might have been a second and third embroidery needle stabbed into Xiao yu''er''s body.


    Her heart aches. Now I know that the embroidery needle has been moved to the vein of the wrist.


    She looked at Feng Xin gratefully. If not, Xiao yu''er doesn''t know how much pain to suffer.


    She thought for a moment and said to Jing Yuan, "Ma San once found a magnet in the mine mountain. Can the emperor ask someone to get one?"


    It was mentioned in a letter to him immediately that she didn''t pay special attention.


    Jing Yuan nodded and asked Wuhe to order people to do it.


    After a while, Jing Yuan went back to his study.


    Zhuo Xi and Feng Xin had lunch with their two children, exchanged some parenting experiences, and went back to their rooms for a nap.


    In the afternoon, the people sent to cangcui mountain to get the magnet came back. What a big rough magnet!


    Zhuo Xi was startled when she saw it. She quickly asked people to knock it into small pieces, and took one of them to grind it into a smooth circle.


    Fengxin didn''t know what the magnet was. She came to see her treat xiaoyu''er very curiously.


    Zhuo Xi let Xiao yu''er sit down at will, then took the round magnet, fixed it on his arm, and then moved very slowly towards the pulse gate of his wrist.


    Feng Xin looked surprised. As usual, she practiced Kung Fu and needles for Xiao yu''er every day. She was so tired that she didn''t say it. Xiao yu''er also had to bear great pain.


    But she moved so much that Xiao yu''er not only had no pain, but also felt that his mother was playing games for him and giggled.


    After about a quarter of an hour, Zhuo Xi could press the existence of the embroidery needle at the cute place. Compared with the small blood vessels of Xiao yu''er, this embroidery needle is surprisingly thick.


    She handed xiaoyu''er''s wrist to Feng Xin, "a Xin, can you use your internal skill to force this needle out of his blood vessels?"


    Feng Xin was shocked. He used his internal skill to work hard to stitch him. He could only do half an inch in half an hour. Unexpectedly, this round thing moved it at least three inches in one incense burning time.


    However, the needle is close to the skin surface. It''s easy to force it out with a little internal force. So she worked hard and pressed her fingers on Xiao yu''er''s wrist. With a little force, an embroidery needle gushed out.


    Xiao yu''er thought her aunt was also playing games with him. Unexpectedly, the next moment she stared at the red blood on her wrist, and then a stabbing pain on her wrist made her cry.


    Without hesitation, Zhuo Xi immediately tied his wrist with a bandage to stop the blood. Fortunately, it was in the vein and the blood stopped soon.


    She hugged Xiao yu''er and comforted him in a low voice, "it won''t hurt in the future."


    Feng Xin looked at the round stone and felt very magical.


    Zhuo Xi said with a smile, "a Xin, put the magnet on the embroidery needle for an interview."


    Feng Xin looked at the embroidery needle lying on the side wrapped in blood and moved the pebble. Unexpectedly, the embroidery needle was sucked by it and pasted on the pebble with a soft sound.


    Feng Xin''s eyes widened.


    Zhuo Xi smiled with Xiao yu''er, who gradually whispered, "ah Xin, this magnet can absorb iron. The embroidery needle is sucked forward by it, and naturally it goes up a lot faster... But thank you very much these days... "


    Feng Xin decisively put the pebble into the palm of his hand, "if you want to thank me, send me!"


    Zhuo Xi smiled, "what''s there? Just take it if you like!"


    In this era, although the magnet is rare, it is not practical.


    If placed in modern times, it is a good object for rotating coil power generation


    "Oh, by the way, what about Liu ningsi after that day?" She suddenly remembered to ask.


    Feng Xin lightly replied, "promise her. After it''s done, I gave her a good time."


    Zhuo Xi was silent.

    The stormy waves in the palace didn''t come out of the palace at all, so it didn''t affect the joy of the Wu family.


    Peng family of Wu family started early in the morning, tossed for a long time, and finally gave birth to a daughter in the expectation of everyone.


    Wu Xing was very happy and went into the palace to report the good news to the emperor.


    The emperor was dealing with the government affairs accumulated a few days ago. He was overjoyed at the news, rewarded him, and asked him to go to Ning''an palace in person to congratulate the empress.


    Wu Xing was also happy. He came out of Zichen hall and went straight to Ning''an palace.


    He hasn''t stepped into Ning''an palace since he came back from the northern expedition. The emperor knows the details. He doesn''t avoid other people''s eyes and ears, but also the emperor''s eyes and ears.


    Zhuo Xi resumed her usual routine and was holding the first regular logistics meeting after returning to the palace.


    At this time, hearing that the eldest brother came, she quickly asked the female officials in charge of the meeting to take refuge in the side hall. She took Su''s clothes and sat on the upper seat before she let him in.


    Wu Xing knelt down to salute and presented a basket of red eggs.


    I don''t know when the custom of giving birth to a son and giving birth to a daughter and giving birth to a happy egg began to spread in the mother and baby hall, and the whole Kyoto can''t help but join the fun.


    Zhuo Xi looked at the bright red egg and smiled, "sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter?"


    Wu Xing nodded.


    "Brother, please get up. This is a great event! Come on, "she turned to the Spring Festival Gala," go to the warehouse to find handle yuruyi and give it to my nephew''s daughter. In addition, find some nourishing herbs and send them to my sister-in-law. "


    The Spring Festival Gala happily took the red egg from Wu Xing and thanked him, "thank you, Lord Wu."


    These happy egg empresses can''t eat them. Isn''t it cheap for the people of Ning''an palace?


    Wu Xing saluted the empress again and thanked her before she stood up.


    Zhuo Xi asked excitedly, "who does your nephew look like? Isn''t it cute? "


    Wu Xing was covered with black lines. When his daughter was born, he took a look. It was red and wrinkled. Where can he see who he looked like?


    But he couldn''t boast that he was like me, so he hardened his head and said, "probably like her mother."


    Zhuo Xi showed a disdainful expression on her face, "what do you big men know? The newborn baby doesn''t have long facial features. Where can you see who he looks like? No, I''ll have someone go back with you and look after me. Anything can come back and forth directly. "


    Mrs. Liu, the Wu family''s wife, was unable to move. She called someone, "is Mrs. Yu in the palace? Go and invite her over. "


    The person who came was early spring. He was surprised at the speech and didn''t dare to answer.


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "what''s going on?"


    Chunzao said softly, "Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Yu has been locked up in the military punishment department for some time..."


    Zhuo Xi was surprised, "what?! Say it again? "


    Without her knowledge, someone was sent to the military punishment department, which could only be ordered by the Empress Dowager or the emperor.


    The Empress Dowager never interferes in the affairs of Ning''an palace. Is it the emperor?


    It is impossible for the emperor not to know the relationship between Mrs. Yu and her. How could he send her to the military punishment department?


    The other spring morning can''t say anything.


    She had to ask, "who sent it in that day?"


    Chunzao recalled, "it seems to be father-in-law Xiaofeng on duty in Zichen hall."


    "Go and call him."


    Spring should be here early.


    Wu Xing didn''t know, so Tun smiled, "don''t worry. When my Jing is out of the month, I will ask her to bring her daughter to greet you. "


    Zhuo Xi nodded, "sister-in-law is hard in the month, and brother still has to accompany her more."


    Wu Xing replied, "yes." He smiled bitterly in his heart. Since the four generals went to the border to operate their own territory, he, the three life marching commander, had not been given the task of traveling to the territory. He had to run to the military academy all day, and stayed at home with his wife for the rest of the time


    Zhuo Xi also thought of this. At the beginning, she seemed to suggest that the emperor let the eldest brother stay a few more days. She smiled and said, "does the eldest brother still want to go to Ruihe city?"


    Wu Xing was stunned. He wanted to make great achievements, so he went on an expedition to datan. His three life marching commander''s position is also the Ruihe city over there. What my mother asked was


    "In fact, as long as he has the opportunity to serve the emperor, it''s the same everywhere," he said


    Zhuo Xi also smiled. "Before, the palace suggested to the emperor to stay with the eldest brother for a few more days, so as not to miss the eldest sister-in-law''s production and leave regret. Now everything has been settled. Just a few days ago, the emperor mentioned to the palace that the commander of Tingwei''s army and Horse Department suddenly died suddenly. There was no one to hold the vacancy for a moment. I wonder if eldest brother is interested? "


    That day, after Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Wu left, she remembered that her eldest brother had been idle at home and asked for the position at that time. Later, too many things happened. She didn''t care about it, and the Emperor didn''t care about it.


    Wu xinglue pondered, "if you stay in Kyoto, you can take care of your home. It''s a good job. However, I still think that if my niece turns one year old, their mother and daughter can come to office with me... "


    Let him take office... Is it time to talk about separation? I didn''t expect that big brother''s determination to split up was so strong. It seems that people have confidence and are not afraid to make trouble.


    Zhuo Xi thought, "it''s also a success. In that case, go and ask the emperor for grace."


    Wu Xing, Shane, salute out.


    At this time, the breeze came.


    Zhuo Xi asked, "what''s the matter with Mrs. Yu?"


    Xiaofeng pinched a cold sweat in his palm and told the emperor that he heard Mrs. Yu talking with the "Queen" that day. The emperor asked him to control Mrs. Yu and send her to the Wu Xing division.


    Zhuo Xi was silent. She didn''t know that master clearance was also summoned from Zihe county all the way.


    Xiaofeng replied, "after that day, the clearance master also returned to Zihe County in the south. However, Mrs. Yu was only detained in the military punishment department. She was not allowed to be close to her. She listened to her nonsense and was not sentenced. My mother can rest assured. "

 Chapter 326

    Cold sweat began to seep from his forehead. Princess Qingya died. As soon as master Jingkong left, he became the only person who knew about the soul changing of the empress except the three masters in the palace... He still hasn''t figured out why the Emperor didn''t kill him... Is he going to leave him to the empress? But it''s been so many days... If he wanted to talk, he would have said it long ago?


    Zhuo Xi didn''t notice this and thought carefully, "nonsense? She...? "


    Xiaofeng nodded, "she''s crazy..."


    That''s why he''s more afraid!


    The only two people who know about it are crazy, leaving him a normal one. It''s a dying rhythm anyway


    So his face turned white again.


    Zhuo Xi found his abnormality and asked, "what''s the matter with you? Why is your face so ugly? " Aren''t you talking about Mrs. Yu? Why does it seem to have something to do with him?


    Xiaofeng knelt on the ground. When he heard this, he fell his head on the ground and trembled all over.


    Zhuo Xi shouted, "raise your face!"


    The breeze raised his face and the cold sweat flowed down like a waterfall.


    She snapped, "Mrs. Yu is crazy. Is it about you?!"


    Xiaofeng quickly kowtows, "no, no, no, I don''t know why she''s crazy..."


    "What are you nervous about?! Come from the truth! " Zhuo Xi drank angrily.


    Xiaofeng shook his body, "Mom, mom... Little, little don''t know anything! The little one won''t say anything! I swear if I say a word, I''ll hit five thunders in the sky! There is also a sick old mother and a young sister outside the small palace. The small one doesn''t want to die! "


    Zhuo Xi was stunned and couldn''t believe it. "Say it again?"


    "Really, really, I swear, there will never be a word revealed from my small mouth. If I violate this oath, I will hit five thunders in the sky!" He thought his mother wanted him to swear again, so he said it again.


    Zhuo Xi sank her face. "Someone threatened you?"


    Xiaofeng is a little confused. Isn''t the biggest threat from you and the emperor?


    There is no one except the two masters


    So he gritted his teeth and shook his head, "no, no..."


    "Is that someone asking you for information?"


    "No!" He immediately denied that this was even more impossible.


    "What oath do you make?"


    Ah? Xiaofeng is confused again


    Zhuo Xi thought about it carefully and suddenly figured out whether he thought he was going to kill people?


    She looked at the little eunuch carefully and found that he was the little eunuch who fell into the hands of Prince Ming he that day and blocked the ghost hand of the grey man with high martial arts for herself, even the little eunuch with broken arm.


    She asked softly, "is your arm broken?"


    Xiaofeng burst into tears and finally remembered it!


    Shifu had already mentioned that if he hadn''t made great contributions to saving his mother, how could the emperor mention him as the second-class Eunuch in Zichen hall?


    It seems to be reused this time?


    He quickly nodded, "I''ve been recuperating for more than a month. It''s already good." He has a little knowledge of martial arts, is healthy, and recovers quickly.


    Zhuo Xi asked again, "what difficulties did you encounter in the palace? If so, you might as well tell the palace. "


    Xiaofeng is almost messy in the wind. You two are the difficulties in the palace


    Zhuo Xi thought for a while and asked, "what would you think if someone told you that the soul of the Lord of the harem had been replaced by someone a month ago?"


    Xiaofeng answered without thinking, "naturally, I don''t believe it. How can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world?"


    Zhuo Xi stood up. "Others, like you a month ago, have not experienced these things. Do you think even if you say it, someone will believe it?"


    Xiaofeng was stunned. Even if he let out a word, no one believed it?


    He suddenly understood why Mrs. Yu was crazy


    I suddenly understood why the emperor let him walk carelessly in the palace without even a word of advice... It was not that I was afraid of his nonsense, but that no one would believe him even if he talked nonsense


    So no one will kill him?


    He suddenly felt relaxed and burst into tears, "thank you, emperor, empress for your kindness..."


    Zhuo Xi added, "the emperor can let you participate in this matter, which shows that in his mind, you are a trustworthy person. In the future, you should be a good job, or you should not disappoint the emperor''s trust in you. " I''m afraid he made a good impression on the emperor that day because he was desperate to save himself.


    Xiaofeng immediately kowtowed his head again, "thank you for your grace, thank you for the grace of the emperor."


    "You step back first." Zhuo Xi waved her hand.


    Xiaofeng thanked again and again before he stood up and turned away. Unexpectedly, another sentence came from behind, "stop."


    His heart is cold. Doesn''t his mother change her mind?


    He knelt back to his original position and heard his mother ask, "where is the soul fixing pearl?"


    He breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "the emperor ordered the small one to be put in the treasure Pavilion warehouse for health care." I have to open it regularly to see if the blood inside has dried up... Dinghun beads should be raised with blood now


    Zhuo Xi pondered, "why don''t you go and see Mrs. Yu? If she is still awake, give the soul fixing bead to Mrs. Yu. If you are really crazy, you can still keep it. "


    Since then, she has nothing to do with Mrs. Yu.


    Although I had nothing to do with her, I thought she was the original owner''s mother and took care of her many times. I didn''t expect that she would destroy her chance to come back just for the word "mother"... In fact, from his point of view, it''s understandable to have her own real daughter


    Just... I''m a lonely man. Now I have a husband and children... Is it perfect?


    Xiaofeng agreed excitedly.

    The days gradually returned to normal.


    The first entrance examination of women''s Medical University was finally opened as scheduled.


    A lot of people signed up.


    After Jingrong''s on-site mobilization and the continuous publicity of the enrollment staff, many ladies and Jasper have signed up.

    Zhuo Xi was in full bloom and made them produce in large quantities.


    At the same time, active printing technology is becoming more and more mature under the research of craftsmen.


    The mass production of drugs can finally be carried out


    Zhuo Xi breathed a long sigh of relief, but she was more concerned about the opening of Xishan villa group


    Wu Zhen has been arranged to do the publicity in the early stage, but I don''t know the effect?

    Zhuo Xi was elated immediately.


    It''s a pity not to attend such an unprecedented occasion... But the price?


    One is as high as 35600 taels of silver?


    Sure enough, it''s a huge profit. No wonder modern real estate developers are rich... Zhuo Xi''s mouth twitched. Although there is no business, I also know that the living cost of ordinary people is about three to five Liang silver, and an ordinary house in the most prosperous area of Kyoto City is only three or five hundred Liang silver.


    The villa located in the suburbs was originally expected to sell for about 5000 Liang silver. The high total price is mainly due to the large area. Who could have thought that it could be as high as more than 30000 liang?


    awesome.


    It can be seen that there are many rich folk


    In this way, the selling price of Xishan villas is as high as more than 4.7 million, nearly 5 million liang of silver, which is almost the income of the national treasury in a year.


    Wu Zhen took out another piece of silk, "this is your dividend, madam. The silver will be delivered after the grass people have prepared it in two days. "


    Although the land is provided by the royal family, how can this dividend go to the state treasury?


    Zhuo Xi opened it and smiled more happily. There were two million Liang


    It''s really ten Xiaoyu''s wives


    Her mood is very happy


    Unexpectedly, Wu Zhen took out the third piece of silk, "this is the glass lamp order placed by several major merchants today to Lord Yu... The small ones dare not make the decision, but ask them to leave the quantity and contact information, and the price remains to be decided by Lord Yu."


    What a surprise


    In other words, Wulin mountain is really his own property


    She looked at a series of orders, and all she saw was £¤£¤£¤£¤


    I can''t help coughing twice when I record and envy the spring warmth nearby.


    Empress, how are you? After a country, is it suitable to always show such a look of wealth fans?


    Zhuo Xi stared at the warmth of spring for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said, "shopkeeper Wu, half of the dividend will be transferred to Lord Ji at any time..." think about the empty box under the bed... It''s more painful


    Chunnuan could not help being stiff. She took a look at the empress''s firm look and truthfully recorded this sentence


    Lord Wu also came back from the petrification and bowed down, "it''s a great blessing for my mother to think of all the people in the world..."


    Fu your sister... I want to make more money after the university is established

    In June, the first box of Chinese patent medicine of this era finally came out.


    Although it was only a rough carton printed with rough fonts, there were no refined tin foil packaged pills in it, only honey pills wrapped in edible grade oil paper, Zhuo Xi''s eyes were wet looking at the bright OTC three familiar letters on the box


    So she remembered another important thing. She urgently ordered people to sort out the medical laws and regulations originally implemented by Daliang and send them to Ning''an palace


    In August, the revised medical law was officially promulgated.


    On August 15, the first batch of 19 kinds of ordinary Chinese patent medicines were officially listed and circulated.


    In September, the students of the first women''s Medical University officially reported the opening of school... A large number of students came from Daliang counties, especially Junyao Prefecture in the south.


    Regardless of the risk of coming into labor, the empress insisted on attending the first school opening ceremony, which was highly praised by the people.


    In the same month, the men''s medical college began to be built on the hill opposite the women''s Medical College.


    Junyao Prefecture, far to the south, took the lead in building a branch of women''s Medical University


    In October, the queen gave birth to a princess, which was celebrated all over the world.


    At this time, a Xiang opera called "Mrs. medicine king" gradually spread from the south. Everyone who has heard it praises it and is beautiful.


    In December, near the end of the new year, the crew of Mrs. medicine king was invited to the palace to celebrate the Empress Dowager''s birthday. It is said that the Empress Dowager wept on the spot. She specially ordered everyone in the whole palace to watch. Therefore, the Baolian society performed in the harem for three days, and the performance was full every day.


    Since then, the name of "Queen of medicine" resounded inside and outside the palace
